First game actually carried by little one cost artificer what an absolute champ

[@simonight_art]

That last game was really impressive! Wow, I thought multiple times, how are you going to win that?? haha Nice plays ;)

[@jeremyngo7606]

Blizzard really gave brian 30 more seconds to his timer lmao

[@davidrodas9543]

Can't quite see the dragon paladin mentioned in the thumbnail but great video as per usual 🤘🏻

[@joshuapackard2024]

druid*

[@user-iy6rp1zt1l]

Can't quite see the dragon paladin mentioned in your comment either

[@jasonpauldegraaf]

Mad skills in that last game. Well done

[@vapo1978]

Comment for yt algorithm. Thanks for great hs content as always

[@alegend2337]

Last game required lots of luck but also good decision making. It's safe to say not everyone could pull that win off but also without those lucky card rolls druid would have steam rolled. Dragon druid op.

[@Tinil0]

It just says "An elemental from the past" so I don't find it strange. I saw RegisKilbin also seemingly thinking that it would only get Shaman elementals in elemental shaman too.

[@saevin11]

When you got deputization game 1 I'm pretty sure you were gonna win regardless, but I feel like trading the elemental into the 5/4, then attacking for 10 lifesteal with the reverb clone, pinging it and getting 7 more lifesteal on top of that with the elemental was just guaranteed win no matter what OP drew or did.

[@rainphantom]

What is the goal the idea in this deck? Somekind of tempo deck? Or is it something else?

[@ScherFire]

In classic Kibler fashion, it's a value-oriented Midrange deck that can be piloted in a number of different directions depending on the match-up. This one is less able to go on the offensive than a lot of his other builds, but it's very good at grinding minion-based decks out, as you see in these two games.

[@DaniloSouza-bt2xt]

That first priest player has no respect for secrets huh

[@PenguinWithInternetAccess]

He's not the most slippery penguin on the ice sheet ngl (although he probably had not many spells left anyway)

[@arthursoares2093]

Or hes a bot

[@nerdock4747]

@@PenguinWithInternetAccess Exactly, perpetually 2-3 cards left and the guy wants him to work multiple miracles lol. Plus. 4:15 he throws the banshee into the objection. Seems a little unfair to say he didn't play around the secrets when he clearly did multiple times.

[@Timmy2by4]

I mean he’s shadow priest he’s probably not very good

[@asnalem4391]

He literally dumped his entire hand and you could see he didn't have any other spells to throw at counter

[@Cypresmusique]

some happy random generated cards here. I wonder if the meta requires to put some AOE cards in decks or not. Paladins and druids (specially druids) make creepy boards.

[@narcoleptic_owl]

I agree, I've been of this game for a long time, coming back I'm noticing huge boards with little AOE options

[@PenguinWithInternetAccess]

Yeah you discover aoe, works every time 60% of the time

[@prestonm-f382]

I like this deck, but I think the worst part about is just how variable in quality it is. It feels like half the time you’re getting Norgannon or Voltron, and never Sargeras and Amanthul and Eonar.

[@allhailderpfestor4839]

Yeah the titan quality is just massively different between them.

[@smokeweebs8700]

Mage doesn't need the excavate package at all to be broken, Sif makes the deck 10 times better!

[@PenguinWithInternetAccess]

yeah, i feel like the casino effect definitely has its issues, especially when you compare it to the dk or warlock ones wich are reliable effects, but the gamble is also wha makes the card funny

[@MrFox64057]

I think you can make a cooler reno priest than that last one

[@Fleshreaperrr]

What is the purpose of Tae'thelan in this deck?

[@nolannevrly6740]

first thanks for content!

[@profparadox9871]

Why does kibler almost look like reno?

[@profparadox9871]

Btw what happened to shiro? Haven't watched recent vids of kibler till now

[@Fearzs]

@@profparadox9871He's gone

[@profparadox9871]

@@Fearzs thats sad, i thought shiro was young when i first saw him on stream, turn out he was 9 that time and shiro died 16yrs old, long time for a doggie but sad enough that we all wish they could live as long as we do

[@joeadams3010]

First like :)

[@projectx5154]

That first player played so bad. It's beyond me how he's even legend let alone top 3k

[@andreasericsson6989]

first 🙂

[@johnguy3011]

this is the worst expansion I've ever played in 8 years it's horrible let me know if you guys feel the same everybody is just playing pure Paladin that's how bad the expansion is
