"Unfortunately I know how this deck works... Because I build it!" - Bad Manners Kibler on opponents deck 😂

[@ahoyturtle]

On the one hand, it's such a humblebrag; On the other hand, it's true: he DID build the deck...

[@Nortrin]

Yea, he has only said it like 3 times in 5 minutes… 🙄

[@ducktester9899]

Hey Kibler I really love the decks you build, watching you playing them and trying them out by myself is always a lot of fun. Thank you very much for your hard work and for sharing your exquisite content. Hope you are doing good genius!

[@Vict0rRezn0v]

Fun fact: if you vengeful visage a pozzak and it dies(yours) you get the bots out of your hand on your board

[@schneeluchsalpha2966]

Same for the new spell reverberation, if your copy dies first.

[@Northhax]

The deck really misses oasis ally, makes the secrets too one dimensional and removes protection options for Orion. Really surprised there wasn't a new mage secret in the miniset

[@S1ruz]

Glad they didn't though. Secret mage is already annoying in wild. Id hate it if it will become a meta in standard.

[@Jason-ig1mh]

Kibler: doesn't play blue decks in MTG. Kibler: plays a blue deck in HS instead.

[@bmkibler]

My first GP win was with mono blue!

[@markharrison98]

It is if Kibler's playing it

[@figtmen5]

This deck gives me flashbacks from all the secret mages I constantly encountered in the Wild format. I completely dispise this deck, it's way to frustrating too play against.

[@pimppenguin511]

Any chance of streaming some Slay the Spire? Would love to see it!

[@deocharismostrales4142]

Am i the only one who gets the bug where the game freezes when a secret is triggered? Or is it fixed now?

[@ephemeralamarant]

Slay the Spire is so good! I have hundreds of hours on it. I'd love to see how you play it!

[@Hypn00Toad]

Been playing secret mage since set rotation. Definitely not top tier when Im playing it, but fun cause you catch the opponents off guard and its good enough to get to diamond ranks

[@wildbill7289]

Ditto, but man its hard work, if only Flame Ward was in the core set :D

[@Hypn00Toad]

@@wildbill7289 yeah, it really feels like its missing that one more good secret

[@AyushSharma-ne9zs]

Wild secret mage is pretty good

[@meanberryy]

I feel like a secret triggering from attacking your minions is what the decks missing atm. It's what made the legendary able to just lock down your opponents pre-rot

[@MixTwentyOne]

Is Orion necessary for this list? I replaced him with Blademaster Okani for another Objection/Counterspell

[@tuffilaro1565]

12:39 isn't that astalor hitting face 11/14 times pretty low chance?

[@ajy0h_]

I'm not sure exactly how it's coded (which would impact the exact chances), but since the only other target had 4 health and astalor doesn't overkill, it was guaranteed that at least 10 of the astalor shots would go face (and that was sufficient for guaranteed lethal).

[@dg5059]

yes but not relevant because opponent was dead regardless

[@bird3713]

Average would be 7/7 split (obviously impossible, since the minion only has 4 health), so an 11/3 split is four coin flips above that average. I don’t know where to go from here- I’m not a statistician.

[@tuffilaro1565]

@@ajy0h_ I didn't know that is how it works. I assumed every shot would calculate it's own chance, since they all individually damage aswell (Solid alabi etc.).

[@raznaak]

4:54 that was dirtyyyy

[@FanOfMostEverything]

Heart of the Spire: I fear no man. But that... _thing._ (cut to Kibler) Heart of the Spire: It scares me.

[@Mercedes-Man420]

I miss shiro 😢

[@bmkibler]

Me too

[@TheBreathless24]

Far from top tier... Although if Kibler plays it, it becomes one 😅

[@justnobody5527]

I find ot amusing that now that theres no reno many classes now get unconditional renos....

[@dannyjaye]

Nice to see other people playing the deck I’ve been running for the last month or so. 😊

[@MrMikelaclaire]

Started playing hs proper again for the first time in years and hit legend in wild with secret mage

[@argyllsampson8663]

All these amazing decks. Kiblers on a roll.

[@templar804]

Xalatath Gaming. Always good to see.

[@BIacklce]

ive hit 3 star rank 1 5 times this season and I want to die

[@Lt_Revolution]

Hello

[@drewpeacock9087]

I do hope not

[@Gioberrrto]

Why every hs match in y2b dont have against paladin?

[@meanberryy]

Palladin is a klimbing deck, once people get to legend the typically play more "fun decks".

[@deitus1375]

Hello there

[@meanberryy]

Thoughts on pozik or okani in the deck?

[@bmkibler]

I think given the popularity of Paladin the bartenders are better and you don’t want more 4 drops

[@meanberryy]

@@bmkibler youbare correct as always, ended up playing amor vendor even (playing in diamond imso basicly 60%+ palladin.)
