[Hearthstone] Jaina & RNGesus Team Up In Arena!

[@bluemasterking]

I once had sleep paralysis and i imagined Kripparian slowly slithering up to me and i felt the brush of his wirey beard press against my chest and his boulder-like face was a miillimeter away from mine and he whispered "..He had the perfect cards" then drained all my RNG power right out of my chest. I cried for days.

[@Ghostneedle1]

I smell bs.

[@feluto7172]

it happens to all of us....

[@zinofwin]

11:20

[@__-be1gk]

Kripparrian once had sleep Kripparrian and I Kripparrianed Kripparrian slowly Kripparrianing up to Kripparrian and he felt the Kripparrian of his wiry Kripparrian press against his Kripparrian and his Kripparrian-like Kripparrian was a Kripparrian away from his and he Kripparrianed "...Kripparrian had the perfect Kripparrians." then drained all of his Kripparrian power out of his Kripparrian. He Kripparrianed for Kripparrians.

[@Ghostneedle1]

Alvanix And of course you show up.

[@elhuskyplateado7731]

20:41 to skip video.

[@iRamUrMother]

Skip this comment.

[@F00dTube]

***** I thought he was pretty explicit about it.

[@Flatchlenter]

***** I don't care if this is a negative bandwagon comment, it's funny. You shouldn't care either ;)

[@Flatchlenter]

***** If you actually think that the comment was made while "stick[ing] around his videos specifically just to be negative", then you've; 1. Answered your own question (See: _"specifically just to be negative"_) 2. Displayed that you lack any basic form of reasoning.

[@F00dTube]

***** Your pretentious yet stunted phrasing makes me sad. Morxplays is a a fan of the show and a somewhat valued commenter. He/she was just making a jest here.

[@Hasoken]

2:40 to kripperino skipperino

[@S34G4T3]

ty bro

[@cracine1]

I clicked that and still saw kripp, I think the real kripperino skipperino is 20:42.

[@assidoni]

ty bro

[@mob1u5]

ty

[@Cosimate]

What?.... 5:20 is a lot better.

[@CorporateShill66]

You're really good at this game Kripp. That mad bomber was pure skill.

[@jericho2014]

My skill is so high that my bomber would hit his face 3 times with that board.

[@AnonP2X3YZ]

2:41 Skipperino to Kripperino

[@holydush]

If you're 7-0, that doesn't necessarily mean your opponent will be 7-0 as well. The scores might be similiar like 7-0 vs 6-1 but not exactly the same.

[@Setorrs]

Dear Kripp, I wrote you but you still ain't calling I love you Kripp, we coulda been together, think about it You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it Well, gotta go, I'm almost at the bridge now Oh shit, I forgot, how'm I supposed to send this shit out?

[@andrewacomb6784]

2:40 Skipperino the Kripperino plz no haterino

[@MarioPlinplin]

In my last 5 Mage arena I had no flamestrike. Not because I decided not to pick them, they just didn't show up. None of those deck went over 4 wins.

[@TheOberknecht]

than u suck :*

[@darkflay12345]

TheOberknecht why? this rng based game isnt skill based by any chance..

[@FatPure7]

My only 12win mage was with a deck without flamestrike. I had one blizzard but that's it.

[@BeholdTruthsSecretTV]

lmfao, I play mage, get 4 fireballs, 3 water elementals, 2 flame strikes, ice bolts and all that good stuff. 0-3 everytime. RNGStone takes a lot of skill.

[@ThunderingRoar]

+BeholdTruthsSecretTV or maybe u just suck few days ago i got 8 wins without any flamestrikes/blizzards/goblin blast mages, it's rly easy cuz mage hero power

[@thracianremnant5356]

I hope that I am not the only one that likes to hear Kripp talking

[@Kahgro]

Why didn't he show the game against the priest where he got Alextrasa from Unstable Portal?

[@leafrek]

Why many want to skip the Kripp talking? I know some prefer less talkin' more suc...ehm but he explains what's the video about and such...

[@Giorotto]

A troll trend on his channel

[@Baba_Lemonade]

The titles already tells us what the video is about - a Mage arena in which Kripp gets the RNG favour.

[@leafrek]

But he explains it further in the video -.-"

[@iiiSnake]

tonicel1 what giorotto sais.

[@kalixkatt]

It's more like a joke. People do watch his videos.

[@Leopoldshark]

Title should be "Kripp Skillfully Plays Mage in Arena".

[@stewrat0420]

before i see the gameplay, im fairly sure theres gonna be the mad bomber lethal in there.

[@JamesV1]

Good call.

[@Astrix321]

Kripp quote "If you play hearthstone, your gonna loose games"

[@noobguy80]

you're

[@lith453]

*lose

[@lith453]

lith453 hose

[@lith453]

lith453 if you play gurden, you ur gurnna hose stuff

[@nemesisnick66]

fuk i got here to early and theres no skip the talking comment yet now i gotta watch the whole thing D:

[@Danlord101GT]

Boo hoo

[@slypher08]

***** In that case, you're going to need to reply to almost every other youtube comment.

[@mrjoostietoostie]

kripp, you totally made me crack up because of everything you said after that bomber xD

[@CheatOnWifesen]

5:20 to kripperino skipperino (including draft)

[@Flying_Scorpion]

That last round was awesome.

[@tugadolfo]

"it either happens or it doesn't...50% chance" - Kripp early 2015

[@kleberguimaraes342]

The craziest arena I have seen.

[@whereismylatay]

Kripp has 3 flame strikes, 3 frost bolts and 3 blast mages = 333.Kripp has 2 eyeballs.333 x 2 = 666.Kripp =M. Night Shyamalan confirmed.

[@Wooker]

3:37 did that murloc tidehunter just turn into a tauren warrior?

[@bullseye088]

Well done Kripp, this is why youre the boss!

[@NoahSmith37]

I had a turn 4 Earth Elemental the other day using Unstable Portal. Earned me a quick concede.

[@jjfrizzy5632]

grats on the TSM invite !!

[@Frog_Cat_]

Misplay imo at 9:45 - Pinging the acolyte then trading - had he just pinged the 2/1, and traded the loot hoarder, he could've done 5 face damage by keeping the acolyte alive. He then has lethal next turn (5 again, plus hero power = 6). And by keeping the acolyte alive, he had the option of later pinging and trading to draw cards if the situation was desperate. Yes he was digging for frostbolt, but he could've dug the next turn.

[@NSACinder]

Guys does anyone know why arcane golem isn't a mech? I've always wondered this since they changed some old cards like harvest golem.

[@tccb1833]

Kripp, when are you going to upload 1080p?

[@Jesus-kj9zm]

Lollllll th0x evrry1 I am so glad to assist the kripperino in RNGstune

[@RecallFPS]

12-0 that's insane! :D

[@TechnicallyNotGuilty]

"Man this video seems familiar as fuck what is going on..?" **Realises I was watching the stream at the time around 13 minutes in** "Oh.. meh."

[@Ennergyiezs]

heyguyshowsgoingkripparrianhere.

[@LoonyTix]

You should have showed the clip of you taking 5 to the face from the bomber lol.

[@8acun]

If there was no 'maximum wins', how many wins would krip get?

[@FelixChayder]

missed lethal: 20:42

[@lens_hunter]

"It either happens of it doesnt, 50% chance!" Amaz math ftw!

[@OMGodini]

That unstable portal tho Kappa

[@theoriginalbreadcrumb]

So why didn't you make a video about duplicating kodo's ? I think that was the best part about todays stream.

[@mrnarason]

2:35

[@CroPro100]

20:41 to skipp Kripp

[@dwd713]

How does Kripp know the other player's arena score?

[@Tyranoman]

Seems weird that Arcane Golem isn't a mech card.

[@gustavobueno6613]

How can I see how much wins the other player has on arena? just wondering :)

[@leafrek]

RNGesus strikes back again xD

[@XxILikePie03]

Was this the 8/3 most one sided run?

[@jhujew]

LOOOOOOOOL THAT MAD BOMBER! HOLY SHIT!

[@franciscorral4178]

You play on dragon blight Krip?

[@matjefi]

2:40 to skipperino kripperino

[@knightofdread]

But will you ever try to get at least 12 wins arena for every class

[@adamaronesty513]

A question about arena, how do I get the best draws and synergy between my cards in arena, not knowing what my next draws may be?

[@Marcoos1996]

2:41 to skip kripp talking.

[@Triumph633]

11:15 50% Chance ROFLMAO.

[@EvilKingPhill]

That 2% win bomber...

[@asdfkle8]

Where's the Kodo games? WTB Kodo

[@MrBlueSleeves]

[@bleaderino]

18:49 bem! Face attack

[@silverion7]

[@n.mightslapallama1874]

Skillstone, the best stone.

[@FeelingThis09]

[@Dudebug2000]

[@HDuser100]

It either happens or it doesn't 50% chance. Yup, pretty legit math there :D

[@OmGoLaToR456]

Why does he say hurtstone?

[@nofooku]

How Good Is Not Having Your Title Be A Question?

[@lolkajo123]

i have so bad rng - the kripper

[@jamesliu1977]

blastmage op

[@slobelukic83]

Ill quote you Kripp when you lose due to rng:"This guy is infinitely better than me" ;)

[@thevoxdeus]

Although the example with the bomber is extreme, it's symptomatic of why this game has such a low skill ceiling. There's so much RNG in this game, even more than ever with GvG, that skill is severely diluted compared to non random games.

[@DATskorge]

RNG adds skill ceiling. It's like poker. Yes, it can fuck you from time to time. But the most knowledgeable players will play the odds and come out on top more often than not. That's skill. And it's also the nature of a card game.

[@LightningGentleman]

The notion that the most skillful player wins a video game every time they play it is ridiculous. There's no gaming equivalent of Achilles that has played 10,000 competitive matches of something and never lost. Like the previous guy said, with a game like Hearthstone, you generally look at a lot of games over time to determine a player's skill. As a mediocre player, I generally get something around 4-5 win arenas and am around 55-60% win rate overall. Kripp has a high 70s percent of arena wins, and that's damn impressive.

[@thevoxdeus]

Actually, there are video games like Street Fighter or Starcraft in which a clearly superior player will win 100% of the games against an average opponent, assuming both players are actually trying. In fact, even players who are in the top 1% worldwide will rarely ever beat the very best players at these games. Similarly for Chess or Go or other completely non random games. A master at those games will have a win rate against average opponents that's close to perfect, whereas even a highly skilled player like Kripparian will never manage more than 80-90% against even terrible players in Hearthstone, because RNG can bail them out a significant portion of the time. Secondly, the fact that you can generally make a determination about who is best over a long run of games doesn't really counter my point, since I didn't claim that Hearthstone is a pure random game without any skill. Calling a coin toss is a completely random game. Chess is a completely non random game. Hearthstone lies between the two, and it's a lot closer to coin flipping than a game that lacks random elements or has limited random elements, like Starcraft or Street Fighter. It's not as close to coin flipping as a game like Candyland, were there are virtually no decisions to be made at all, but it's still pretty low skill. So either you misunderstood what I said (which is hard to believe, because it's a very short post) or you completely misunderstand the role of random luck vs skill in game design, which seems to be clearly the case. Either way, you're wrong.

[@BulbaBryan]

thevoxdeus 100% is ridiculous. That would apply to noobs, not average players. Against average players the win rate is more like 90%.

[@thevoxdeus]

NGE Fan No, really. An average chess player will never beat a top grand master if the GM is trying. An average street fighter player will never beat Daigo or PR-Rog, if those players are trying. An average Starcraft 2 player will never beat Life or MarineKing. Hell, Daigo went years without dropping even a single tournament match, and he was playing hundreds a year, against the very best players on two continents (as far as I know he didn't generally travel to Europe for tourneys). When you take the random element out of it, the gap between the very best people on earth and the average person is so huge that nothing can surpass it. Whoever you want to pick as the very best Hearthstone player will still drop a significant number of games (5 to 10%) against average opponents playing the exact same deck, because at the end of the day, your opening draw and the results of certain swing cards (like an early game bomber) can swing the game so dramatically that the game is over before skill can assert itself.

[@jarosawpurchawka5236]

10:48 best

[@pilchtastic]

If I played as much as Kripp for the rest of my life I would never see an arena draft that insane.. fucking disgusting

[@RafaelGonzalez88888]

that jaina in the thumbnail tho..

[@Jazzomuch]

It took just a little bit RNG? It took some good RNG for those win!

[@MultiFasma]

allright i've watched highlights i am happy d; but still think full runs wou,d satisfied some maniacs.

[@Jiimpx]

Please tell me this got 12 wins...

[@DBZ-Mousa]

Like a Kripp! ;)

[@leoleo1035]

The earth elemental costs 2 mana with unstable portal, not 4. Kripp maths...

[@danielgrieve64]

Unstable costs 2 by itself though... 2+2, do YOU even maths?

[@jarosawpurchawka5236]

13:50 , 2 mana and minion 7/8 taunt xd

[@belongaskip]

KRIPP JOINS TSM! S E L L O U T B O Y S

[@ZazaBear]

Dat Jaina

[@raicoron3466]

The video hasn't even been up for 20 minutes and it already has likes/dislikes. How the fuck do you drones know whether you'll like or dislike something without watching it?

[@RyanStokes4GOVFL]

How do you guys have so much gold?!?

[@mildaaaas]

What a casual run

[@BobbaFuzz]

You must get through a mouse every two days

[@MultiFasma]

srsly kripp, i was wathing ur no flamestrike no late game arena on stream and then had to go. And like 1 hour after that you dared to pick those cards and i missed the arena. It makes me sad as hell, is it possible for you to upload some epic arena runs in the future? : d

[@CapitalMort]

I'm coming up against more and more rush decks in the the last month, even in unranked matches. It's becoming Rushstone. There's so many mid and late game cards that become more of a liability now.

[@rruzgarr97]

4:56 thfrie flamestrikes thfrie 1 drops Kappa

[@imJeNaiKe]

2:69 to Kriperino

[@blyjd91]

I wonder how long Kripp and all the other streamers will continue to play HS.

[@iRamUrMother]

forever

[@blyjd91]

It was not even meant as a complaint. I just legitamally wonder.

[@CapitalMort]

I wonder that too, I love the game but I don't know how people play it as much as Krip does.

[@Blackreaper777]

Easy. As long as it is profitable. The random nature of the game makes it fun to watch, so I guess people will be interested in HS for quite long time.

[@blyjd91]

SirGooglinMort Smith That's the thing for me. I just don't get how people can play this game for 8+ hours a day. And yes, it's their job but I would get so tired.

[@Ateka9]

haha that first game

[@katwoo0]

how did he know that warrior was 7-0? 11:16

[@TheAmberFang]

Arena supposedly matches you up with people that have the same, or at least similar, records as your own. Kripp's own record was 7-0, so it's likely that his opponent was also 7-0.

[@letsparty132]

Haha that fucking earth elemental
