[@TaIathar]

+Freepdied Turns out it's reeaaalllyy good. 1:36

[@BaalBlade]

+Freepdied I crafted Golden Version and mess around with RNG, quite fun and mostly useful, better result than unstable portal.

[@FrostyBorn]

Where's the 30 Raven Idol Tavern Brawl? I need it in my life.

[@murlerinokripperino6600]

That would be cool

[@sims09b]

+Murlerino Kripperino fuck you Murloc

[@TPRDeltalord]

+Dojfes fiskebod be careful. Otherwise he will mrglmrgl you in your sleep

[@Arcessitor]

+Frostyborn We've had that, moron. Discover a new card every turn. We've had it twice, even.

[@r7-hearthstone999]

+Joven Christopher It is different in that you choose whether you want a minion or a spell, which adds a bit strategy to the brawl and make it better in general. In addition you are able to play multiple Raven Idols on one turn. So it would be quite different.

[@Jeffrey7445]

I'm a simple man. I see a Kripp video, I hit the like button.

[@nisseskjegg1]

+Jeffrey Medd I'm a simple man. I see a Kripp video, I Skip the Kripp.

[@Jeffrey7445]

elvitos100 I think what you were trying to say is that there is no thought process or reasoning, because obviously the opinion I'm expressing is that every Kripp video is worthy of a like. But hey, nice try champ next time

[@skanderu4627]

+Froochu true

[@SNAdavisonSNA]

I see the Kripp, I skip.

[@shadowphyre4746]

How Good Is a "How Good Is" Video?

[@vibingwiththewind2889]

+Grand Crusader turns out its preeeeeeeety good

[@lemondude6174]

Turns out it's... ass good a how good is video that's almost as good as a video that's more good than a how good is video but it's still good, maybe more good than a how not good is video, so that means it's pretty good. They're all the same... they're good, good, good and good. good good good good good good good...

[@lemondude6174]

As good as a * lol dat typo

[@dima-dimagers]

+Grand Crusader How Good Is a "How Good Is a "How Good Is" Video" Video?

[@blackjack12341234]

Another video, another day closer to Kripperino victory

[@banerinokripperino742]

To victory!

What I learned: Kripp likes insurance

[@golluminoprecierinokripper2522]

Another precierino videorino...

[@murlerinokripperino6600]

right

[@DatGuyWithNoName]

Is explosive sheep + poison seeds a full removal?

[@balder7810]

+DatGuyWithNoName Ask Toast

[@CaptainSweatpants90]

+DatGuyWithNoName I think it's not. Poison Seeds kills the sheep, deathrattle triggers, then they get replaced. But I'm not quite sure.

[@JSmellerM]

+Don Korb That's exactly what happens.

[@SuperDurjan]

+Don Korb yeah thats how it works, i tried it a lomg time ago.

[@d07RiV]

+DatGuyWithNoName its one of the very few exceptions that actually resolves deaths halfway through the card effect, exactly to prevent these kinds of interactions. The other similar exceptions are Mimiron's Head and Reincarnate, IIRC. With the rest of the cards the deathrattles wouldn't trigger until card text has fully resolved.

[@Flashflame00]

23:08 I clicked subscribe about a year ago and have been watching every one of his videos everyday so you could say I've been doing it forever.

[@COYADD]

Kripperinos need to step up their game. I don't see enough.

[@salterinokripperino4688]

+COYADD Are you sure?

[@Optim121]

+COYADD good riddance

[@golluminoprecierinokripper2522]

+COYADD Reporting for duty sir

[@ripperinokripperino914]

sry I'm late... Tinyfin didn't want to sleep :(

[@sanserinokripperino5410]

can't think of a pun today,maybe will come up with something later -sans

[@larsoorschot2081]

I have a dream that one day all kripperinos will vanish

[@PaleShine89]

+Lerz van oorschot vanish? So they could be played again in next turn?

[@golluminoprecierinokripper2522]

+Lerz van oorschot Wont happen MingLee

[@Dylems]

+Latte Moon nice one

[@murlerinokripperino6600]

impossible

[@patamupp]

Love the youtube marketing at 22 min xD Keep it going Kripp :D

[@mdouet]

I'm running it in the basic combo shell and it's been doing some work. It's power lies in allowing you to adapt to different situations, getting a Starfall against a Paladin for example.

[@alfonsgappa2828]

Ok Mystery Mission now is to watch every Single Kripp Video twice gg

[@Dr.seb.f]

That druid vs druid game was so good! Most interesting arena game ever, especially when than molten and healbot came down..

[@obnoxiousjumper279]

I love discover cards they not only give you new answers to the match but let you choose the best option so much better than unstable portal into wisp

[@ZebraLord13]

You can never escape the druid combo. Nowhere is safe.

[@SgtBallsworth]

Yo Kripp, I think you should do a revisit on how good is shadow form. I saw a really good deck in a Kibler vid the other day and have had a blast climbing ladder with it. People always think of aggro priest when they play shadow form but it actually works really well with heavy control and strong inspire cards like tournament medic and stampeding kodo.

[@R0DisG0D]

+SgtBallsworth Saw that video as well and Trump lost to the deck in his stream recently, seems like an awesome deck. However I can't recall Kripp covering any older cards on his videos, so I don't think he's going to do it.

[@SgtBallsworth]

+R0DisG0D He has occasionally revisited cards if it's been enough time and new content to warrant it. It certainly doesn't happen often, but in his shadowform vid he really only talked about it in arena because TGT wasnt out yet and there werent any shadow decks out that were innovative like this one was, just aggro priest

[@RealCoachMustafa]

14:17 The transition of Kripp on the corner between clips looks like only his shirt changes color.

[@JaziB]

Under what circumstances did he actually choose Wisp???

[@INameIsGood]

+JaziB if you get like 3 wisps to choose from :d

[@mrnarason]

+JaziB There are worst cards then wisp.

[@lkjkhfggd]

+JaziB I've taken Wisp a couple times before. The one time I remember clearly was Wisp vs Eye for an Eye vs Grimscale Oracle.

[@CabbageYe]

+lkjkhfggd It is either minion or spell.

[@lkjkhfggd]

I took it during the draft, not from a Raven Idol...

[@cld1472]

Great I have to come back to KZbin in a couple days to find out how good Raven Idol is.... kinda messed up Krip to put up a video in which you tell us to come back in a couple days :P

[@viltrumite]

Kripp, if you ever see this, please don't stop being you and you're the best! I love ur vids and your smile makes me and everyone else happy, stay strong bro :D (kappa)

[@BakedGoods]

Hey Guys How's It Going, Deathwing Here, And I Insure My Life With Kripp.

[@ChrispyNut]

The white shroud is so subtle in white, but works really well I think. Sure, I know to notice it because I watched the twitch VOD from when it was being discussed/teased. Sorry to the misses, but the red's bugged me so far for basic cards, the white/blue/purple & orange have been great, but FOR ME the red's not been great, but I'll learn to deal with it if you choose to stick with it. Just a quick FWIW/feedback thing :) Have a good one folks.

[@Mad77max77]

this one is my favorite of the new cards ! It's a swipe when you need one, it's a taunt when you need one, it's a cheap minion for early game when you need one... it's excellent !

[@DenisCavalcantiMartins]

It just my impression, but it got easier to get Legendary Minions in Arena? 4 out 5 i got at least one and in oneArena i draft 3 legendarys

[@vibingwiththewind2889]

+Denis Cavalcanti Martins so focking locky BabyRage BabyRage

[@italoviturino6386]

+Denis Cavalcanti Martins i face a lot more legendarys now, faced 2 Dr. Boom in a row yesterday + a shaman that got nefarian and mistcaller, this morning Onixya, wtf is going on

[@Dylan_Thomas1]

+Denis Cavalcanti Martins There is no way. Sites like HearthArena would pick up on this fairly quickly if it were actually happening. What's really going on is that you're been getting very lucky lately. Many people are going to get really lucky all of a sudden because there are just so many players. To those lucky people, like you, it's going to seem like something's up. Plus everyone who sees your comment is going to check their memory for times they got legendaries, and that alone will make them agree with you (confirmation bias).

[@Dylan_Thomas1]

+Denis Cavalcanti Martins Also the discover mechanic has added a lot of legendaries to the game. They're far more likely to show up now DURING the game, not the draft.

[@Septimus_ii]

+Dylan Thomas iirc, Heartharena DID pick up on it. Adwcta was mentioned something about it in one of his podcasts recently, but I don't remember the details or if it was confirmed

[@Blahander]

21:43 I can almost hear Ben Brode's laughter.

[@aeodkiller]

"Dire doggie would have been the nuts" "It's molten giant, that's a tell" Into Poker, are we?

[@connorbrandon1085]

Loving this new camera

[@glennwauters6665]

650.647 subscribers, only 5 more untill 650.652! We can do it guys!

[@Thisisbadrealbad]

Something I've wanted to see for a while is a Malore and KT or baron so you always have cards in your deck.

[@Estrinzzer]

22:55+ what a troll kripp xD

[@feelsbadmanerinokripperino3238]

9:10 Or go to 15:10 and put speed on 0.5x

[@wolfernater]

Sometimes you need a swipe or starfall to not die and choosing spell can be pretty good there.

[@FormerRuling]

He didn't say never take spell (he takes spell a few minutes later) it just wasn't good there.

[@wolfernater]

Anthony Landrum i never said he didn't

[@Scriptures_K]

I only used this once because the opponent's spellslinger or whatever they're called gave me one. I had a choice between two legendaries and something less important. Thanks for the Sylvanas bro.

[@darwinescobar4072]

MUST WATCH EVER KRIPP VIDEO TWICE 😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😶

[@Thrakgul]

Did i miss something or do you don't search almost always for a spell?

[@williamxiang5619]

Kripp how did u manage to play a constructed deck in arena???

[@manbok2035]

I have not put any money into the game, but this makes me want to buy LoE. I discovered this card last week in one of my first arena runs and really want it in my constructed deck.

[@thehovmaster]

does anyone know how many wins that deck got him?? i feel like that was the 12-2 but im not sure

[@AtricosHU]

They should add a Tavern Brawl like the Unstable Portal one - but with Raven Idols. What do you think?

[@Zeusexxy]

Another Hearthstone card, another RNG related effect.

[@eyitsusiop]

+Dojfes fiskebod blizzard pls add 1/1 10 mana bomber to deal 15 damage randomly

[@emericgauthier8819]

+Dojfes fiskebod we need the even madder bomber that deal 9 dmg for 7 mana

[@g00d6ye]

+Emeric Gauthier 3 for 2 and 6 for 5, 9 for 7 would need to be a legendary :D

[@eyitsusiop]

Grigoriy Oprichnikov just blow up everything

[@MrBanarium]

+duo twice And possibly to itself.

[@kripperinoswiferino7581]

I have decided to become a weekend commenter only. I have to blow other kripperinos on the weekdays. Hopefully u all understand.

[@RighteousNicky]

Kripperino's Wiferino ummm no? xD

[@Dawnsday]

+Kripperino's Wiferino Blow other Kripperinos? We're gonna be R I C H.

[@kxanth]

Well how many cards are left to see how good they are I wonder...

[@Eclipse8502]

Man the Age of Kripparinos sure ended fast. Still, longer than the Age of Ultron.

[@ZKEUS]

I think the kripperino rampagerino has finally come to a halterino ?

[@Syrange13]

Overall, this video was really good and overall interesting, and I liked it a lot overall.

[@Volnixz]

turns out its preeeeettyyy good

[@MrGhobo]

How good is my favourite new card from this set, i happened to just draft

[@thrashish]

is this the first appearance of the 'k' annotation?

[@PizzaBiereGaming]

The first arena game was incredible

[@cooling3380]

yo i had two during an arena run, in two games i got the savage roar combo and it was epic

[@Mofriese]

You can actually get a mana boost with raven idol. Innervate! I got a violet teacher on turn 4 into coin - raven idol - innervate - power of the wild.

[@MaxRupert]

Seems like Krip's vids are getting higher in quality. I can see his face properly now.

[@ebin4238]

So kripp basically says that Raven Idol is a placeholder card because it can basically be any minion or any spell in your class.

[@RoastedPheasant]

Raven Idol works in Astral Communion Druid. But it doesn't matter, because Druid is completely binary and only works with Force Savage.

[@AlexmaxPL]

*something regarding the fact that i'm not a kripperino yet am SOOOOO funny*

[@XOctavius1984]

"I'm Kripp and I insure my life on Deathwing.".........So many contradictions in that statement, and yet, it makes so much sense. xD

[@AcVinicious]

i have Idol in my Druid spell dmg deck & its rly cool

[@JujiVerVideos]

We want the video of: How good are Kripperinos!!

[@ArcaneAzmadi]

I use Raven Idol in my constructed Violet Teacher deck and it's one of the key cards (it pretty much _has_ to be since, for some weird reason, I get it in my opening hand nearly _100%_ of the time). I only EVER use it to grab a spell (minion is just WAY too random) because of the potential to either get an extra spell to combo with the rest of the deck (like Innervate or Power of the Wild) or just get a 3rd copy of a great general purpose spell (like Savage Roar or Swipe). Have to say, though, I know Arena is Kripp's "thing", but I'm pretty tired of hearing him just dismiss a card as "nah, useless in constructed" and then spend the rest of the video going on about how great it is in Arena. I don't play Arena _at all._ I don't _care_ about Arena. I'm more interested in creative uses people can come up with for interesting cards in constructed decks, not how people can improvise uses for cards in Arena. Hey, quick public service message: literally almost ANY card can be used effectively in Arena!

[@ScVCh4rly]

Could someone tell me what say Kripp at the start of all videos? Im latin and I can´t understand that pronunciation. Thanks :D

[@KaneMartin1]

+Carlos Alfredo Garcia Roldan Hey guys, how's it going, Kripparrian here

[@ScVCh4rly]

Kane Martin thanks bro, I didnt imagine that cause he speaks so fast always this phrase. Literally u save my life ... lol

[@superflorik3000]

How many wins got Kripp in this Arena run?

[@Padre648]

Can Raven Idol discover itself if you pick spell?

[@AleskanderPog]

No

[@citizensoldier314]

+Padre648 Yes it can

[@Squealings]

Yes it can, just like with Gorilla bot you could discover another Gorilla bot.

[@julianlak1017]

Yep just did this in arena because other options were rubbish

[@Gamelater18]

The spell is 100 times better than the minion side! This is super good in constucted if you only use the spell side. Its like Ethereal conjurer. Its really high chanses to get like swipe or a hard removal. :O

[@cicciobug3981]

whats the result of arena?

[@tobiashedelund6379]

Another video, another day closer to Afrorino.

[@ManBitter]

Why did the first druid freeze argus not the legendary

[@birdiemartinez1890]

so kripp would have to use the legendary to kill his opponents card instead of using Argus to kill it

[@ericwheat7726]

"I'm Kripp, and I insure my life on Deathwing"

[@jmgou1]

That first game was cray-cray in a good way, ya'll

[@Ryusei1986]

I call it now: A Raven Idol only fight, either in challenges or as a Brawl. :D

[@matrotyramat2445]

So 30 idols would work?

[@ikemarthlinkrich]

Just in case youre blind, im tellling you that Raven Idol is 1 mana cost - Choose One - Discover a minion or Discover a spell

[@Minnioz]

+IMLR. im blind, i cant read what you just said

[@Paul_Kielty]

Hate to break to you but, to me at least, the text in kripp's video is bigger than in your comment.

[@phanaticz]

+Paul Kielty JUST IN CASE YOU'RE BLIND, I'M' TELLING YOU THAT RAVEN IDOL IS 1 MANA COST - CHOOSE ONE - DISCOVER A MINION OR DISCOVER A SPELL. IS THIS LARGE ENOUGH, BUDDY? :D

[@adailtonneto1767]

+PHNTCZ but if I'm blind I can't see it anyway ' -'

[@phanaticz]

Adailton Neto I'm blind and I can read this just fine! ^.^

[@jxjfyrurjdbvehr73893]

Does anyone know how many arena wins Kripp has?

[@laykuoch3118]

i got lord jaraxxus out of it once when i thoughtstole a druids raven idol turns out there is value there

[@JacobSomeUniqueIdentifier]

Every video... TWICE? Well I better get started.

[@bishbach310]

Video uploaded 12 min. ago. Skipperino comment 13 min ago...some explanation?

[@italoviturino6386]

I LOVE this card, saved my ass soooooooooo many times in arena and gave me letal a lot of times as well, not to say i'm pretty lucky at finding minions, got Sylvannas 3 times.

[@TurnOneYeti]

Turns out Raven Idol is preeeeeeeeeetty good.

[@RobinWasAlreadyTaken]

Would you say Raven Idol would be Broken if it would cost 0 ?

[@loke5052]

hm yeah the only disadvantage right now in is the fact that when played on turn 1 it takes up your turn but at 0 mana it would be too good for my liking

[@Luminarise]

+rokmann hochzwei Is that even a question? Of course it would lol

[@DinDjar1n]

+rokmann hochzwei Gadgetzan Auctioneer !

[@AlanBool]

The Jump-Cuts though

[@ToriRocksAmos]

Mekgineer Thermaplug + poison seeds combo value PogChamp

[@fukyomammason]

I wish the flavor text had been a Maltese Falcon reference.

[@iNsOmNiAcAnDrEw]

near the end...dude if it were me, 100 percent chance to hit the 7/4! the RNG is much nicer to you than to me. :P

[@Winning781]

"A bit lucky"? yeah, i'd say so. Got perfect and near-perfect idol draws for the current situation almost every time. That was really lucky.

[@ChristinaWintherLolk]

More like "How Good Is Leper Gnome"

[@wolverineftw]

The enemy hero power is lying, it says gain 2 armor and +2 attack this turn, but the armor doesn't go away at the end of the turn...

[@EvlNinjadude]

22:53 Everybody do the memes

[@DavidsonLoops]

1:36 Oh my goodness xD

[@Staint12]

Are you Romanian Kripp? R'you from Romania?

[@MonkeyDLuffy-xo6my]

20:20 He took the two extra damage so his shredder could live...

[@AndersAsWell]

That deck went 12 wins right, list looked super fucking insane tbh

[@dickmcsugartits5949]

I like dis juan (smiles in spanish)

[@PainfulJoy]

If I met Kripp in real life (heavy breathing)..................................................................................................................... I'd probably say "hi". Maybe go for a handshake or fist bump if he didn't seem busy.

[@TheScholesie09]

the idea of Force of Nature Savage roar in arena makes me physically ill.

[@kys3264]

I cant believe Kripp didnt play Deathwing in that first game FeelsBadMan
