Hearthstone - The Witchwood - Card Review

[@SuperDashFlash]

Day9 is the most eloquent person constantly struggling with words.

[@Rhyinn]

Shloggwagle - Shagrocket - Clagclogle - Clogfloggle - Crockdogle - Slagdoggler - Flagwaggler - Shazwinkle........LOOOOOL

[@TheBrownestFalcon]

Just before 10 minutes in.

[@davidwitt6198]

Need a super-cut of all the mispronounces in quick succession... i'm in tears

[@alanhersch4617]

I think he was channeling Gavin Free

[@Phatnaru0002]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYK4eWljZtGaeKs 9:42

[@Kratatch]

We clearly need a Shagrocket in HS.

[@stephenmcorby]

Watching Day9 absolutely murder ShudderWocks name for a straight minute is some of the best video I've watched in a long time.

[@TheLegoJungle]

You got nothing wrong. 100% infallible review. Perfect insights. Brode would be jealous.

[@jfaulsti10]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@GenuinelyUniqueGents]

Honestly. You look at Trump, You look at Kripp. Day9 is the only one who remembers to have fun while playing games.

[@TheLegoJungle]

GenuinelyUniqueGents I may tune in to his stream in this launch :)

[@maxmuellerm]

well I think rebuke is better than a lot of people expect atleast.

[@OhManTFE]

I love how Day9 always plays bad decks and has fun!

[@StriderZessei]

I need a three-and-a-half hour video of Ben Brode watching this video.

[@TARDIS915]

Strider Zessei I didn't know I needed this until now

[@Begeru]

It would just be 3 hours of HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@zegalsp]

Exactly

[@thundersmoke88]

Then a three and a half hour video of Sean watching Ben brode watch this review

[@deltablaze77]

+thundersmoke88 this concept is amazing!! I need this to happen!

[@Acylenn]

guys, guys, guys.... "create a 10 mana 10/10 copy of a minion" "give a minion +3/+3, shuffle 3 copies of it into your deck with +3/+3" has the time come for an angry chicken deck?

[@TheMusicalFruit]

Looking forward to dominating the meta with my Millhouse Manastorm/Rat Trap deck.

[@TheRiley100000]

The Dire Frenzy rant was so funny 😂😂

[@throws89]

Duskfallen Aviana = Nickelback is the single greatest card analysis of all time

[@ViperGecko6]

The best part is that you totally understand what he means though

[@thomasthompson3407]

Best. Review. Ever. Just don’t mispronounce any Old God’s names now!

[@notjux]

Y-SHUH-AR-JAY

[@TheRiley100000]

This video was SO hilarious and I'm not even halfway through. Sean is so full of energy.

[@Davidesonar449]

Sean is the embodiment of humor. 11/10 best card review by far. Laughed all the way to the end of the video.

[@gregoryjoseph6883]

David Hello, Ben Brode.

[@Pyregrammer]

added to my favourites, so whenever i have a bad day i can go back to this video and enjoy day 9 and his mini tagents

[@Eggmancan]

5min in, hoping this caffeine rush he's on last all 3 hours

[@serkanMKose]

Overly energetic and positive attitude. Heavy nose runs. I'm guessing thats no caffeine. heh

[@NateRowand-jo2rf]

It does last the whole video.

[@LastSider]

0:56 "This is not a cowards stream.... this is a garbage card!" Lmao! You got me Sean. Pretty accurate Id say.

[@eppinizer]

Gotta love when Day9 is shot out of a cannon. Keep knocking back those cold brews :)

[@DmitriyPoot]

i kinda feel like, the more people shit on certain cards, the more i want to play them, the more i want to build a deck around these cards

[@deddoken3602]

Feels good to win with them.

[@CrazyCircles1]

Book of Specters combo: Emperor Thaurissan + Drakkari Enchanter - Next Turn - Lorewalker Cho + Faceless Manipulator + Faceless Manipulator + Book of Specters + Book of Specters + Mossy Horror. Fill your opponents hand with slightly smaller Sprint cards that discards their removals - Mill Mage top tier.

[@catchxwithoutxarms]

9:46 When you just can't remember that damn card's name! xD

[@SensibleMinded]

I've made it through the first 30 minutes of this and I'm dying laughing. I don't know if I can go on every part of this is just too funny and my side is hurting

[@Diomenesx]

"This card's as useful as a DVD rewinder" I'm stealing that shit lol

[@KnownAsKenji]

That joke's almost as old as VHS itself.

[@dudem1310]

Anyone else like the idea of reverting warsong commander but have it read "Give all your minions with 3 or less attack RUSH" instead of charge

[@bfeldz1023]

Nah, they need to nerf it one last time, just in case. "Your rush minions have +1 attack."

[@Papupi2pi]

Day9, you misunderstand the purpose of witchwood apple. Obviously the 2/2s aren't worth it. The sole purpose of running the apple is to fill your hand with cards. Then you can play a mountain giant on 3, or a huge twilight drake on 4, or armor up with ferocious howl.

[@jamesnixon6192]

I mean it even happened to him on the reveal stream I agreed with day 9 assessment when I first saw the card but when I saw it in action that is a deck defining card right there mountain, twilight, the new 5 mana taunt, howl that’s 8 cards in your deck (2 of each) that want a hand that means witchwood apple enables a third of a deck to be incredibly powerful that is worth a card slot

[@NateRowand-jo2rf]

The deck won’t work. Day9 knows that’s the point of witchwood apple and a. is joking b. doesn’t care because it changes nothing. in a few months when hand druid is top tier I’ll feel dumb but it would surprise me.

[@jamesnixon6192]

HighLanderPony wild growth also does nothing on the turn it is played

[@jd2792]

Shankspeare then why not just play the 3 mana get 2 1 drops

[@nhagan001]

wild growth serves its purpose: mana ramp. skip mana 3 go to 4. the apple requires: play on turn 2. turn 3 play and hang 1 mana. turn 4 play 2 2/2 minions.... that is a total of six mana used over 3 turns. You can put stronger minions out per turn with every other class in that same time frame.

[@mz9514]

15:13 My reaction to this set now.

[@Legionere]

This was the most entertaining cards discussion I've seen. Keep it up!

[@Gobsnachaz]

I really want to see a combo deck with Dollmaster Dorian, witchwood piper, elven minstrel, Baleful banker, Malygos and sinister strikes. It only has to work once to be awesome.

[@hannabelphaege3774]

Has anyone compiled Sean's ratings? It's a very deep and nuanced system that I would like to look into in more depth.

[@rainmaker6261]

Agreed. There's so much pure, unadulterated wisdom contained here, it's hard to fully absorb it all in video format. Gonna need something more easily digestible.

[@randomguy8461]

The warrior card, named "charge." Gives a minion "Rush." 😒

[@BornforXP]

Its incredible how accurate this entire review has been. All the way down to Dumpmaster Dorian being in my literal first card pack that I opened and me being disappointed that I didn't preorder for more packs.

[@Makkovar]

Gotta run the Witchwood Apple now... somehow.

[@Deris76]

Play it in Wild :O, Emperor Thaurissian, 3 2/2 for 1, or even 0! AMAZING!!! Seriously tho, I dont see how you can play it in any other way hahaha

[@Papupi2pi]

If you have apple and mountain giant in hand at the beginning of the game, witchwood apple lets you play mountain giant on 3

[@Vatis93]

If Handruid is a thing, Witchwood Apple will be good. The ONLY reason to run it is to fill your hand with 3 cards. You don't play these 2 mana 2/2's until you have nothing better to do. You get +2 HP on Twilight Drake / Bewitched Guardian, able to get Mountain Giant out quicker (turn 3 with coin), and can easily use Wispering Woods for seven 1/1's. Overrall, if next expansion has more Handruid support, this card will be run 100%.

[@lucas56sdd]

SHAGROCKET?!?!?!?!?! 😂😂😂

[@MrTxiz]

Sean 1 - Vegetarians 0

[@dzgw]

AS a vegetarian, I agree :(

[@louisng114]

But what if Sean turns Vegetarian? Would that make Sean 0.5 - Vegetarians 0.5?

[@syluar]

Well some vegetarians consider figs to be non vegetarian fruit so...

[@SuperYtc1]

The fact you think it needs a scoreline shows your immaturity, ignorance and lack of regard for the subject and what it supports.

[@SpiderSlob]

HighLanderPony What about plants that have defense mechanisms that kill other animals, but taste good to, and are safe for humans?

[@IbunWest]

If you equip a Kingsbane off of Shadow Reflection it is a normal 1/3 without buffs. So it makes sense that the same would apply to echo.

[@LegendStuff]

Awesome

[@abenyu5070]

Legend Stuff you come here often

[@mistrzbajerycesarzpodrywu7652]

I didn't expect for you to watch Sean. Nice.

[@mememe628]

Druid of the Scythe is the guy who said Why Shuh Are Jay.

[@Bolshoi333]

Day9, can I just say how much I absolutely adore your metaphors. "It's the paint on the wall of a hospital, it's FINE."

[@Nuggetheadification]

32:54 "I'm not in any poison clubs" I love this ;D

[@parkerreid1284]

TokiiMonster opened for Bassnectar in Chicago, it was incredible

[@jamesnixon6192]

What I feel people Mis about genn (the even arch-type) is you will have the mana to use your hero power on every odd turn so on 1,3,5,7,9, you play 2-c and HP a 4- cost and Hp and so on So it could read do your hero power for free on every other turn until you play your death knight which is pretty good

[@louisng114]

Sean did a Parker Square interpretation of Dire Frenzy + Echo.

[@Stilllife1999]

louisng114 omg why is the parker square here too lol

[@wavedash-]

so glad that sean isn't afraid to call blizz out on the buffed echo cards thing

[@sylvester7199]

+3h review from Day9 ? *Grabs a beer and kicks feet up*

[@metalrob82]

2 cans of coffee in less than 2 hours, it's not good for you Sean. And i am Italian. We breathe coffee.

[@anthonyarauz3507]

@9:45 is one of the funniest things I have ever watched. I even came back today to rewatch this part. Ive watched it at least 20 times. Chaz Winkle?

[@DageroLock]

You are a truly entertaining person! Amazing video

[@eziosbro]

I love Sean just talking about hearthstone cards

[@walk2146]

This video is going to provide so many gems a few weeks from now.

[@BSwitchGTG]

Sean, you've got to be right about Dire Frenzy/Mastiff - your understanding is the ONLY thing that makes sense!

[@custersword7746]

Awesome video! Thanks for the headsup on all the reviews were good and the infinite gunspires sounds great.

[@uncirtyne]

1:20:44 And sometimes the opponent gets an Analina Soulthief and you're running a Shudderwock deck and have it in your hand and they get infinite Shudderwocks

[@meris8486]

Forest "guide" lol I ain't letting this dude guide me anywhere

[@grimwolf9988]

Originally I thought the cost on Silver Sword was terrible, but looking closer, the 3/4 stats alone are actually worth AT LEAST 5 mana

[@Tacobell1384]

The dire frenzy + hunting mastiff issue is an issue with how the echo mechanic works not how dire frenzy works.

[@88Hyo]

Paragon of light + Bell is a 5 mana 4/6 taunt lifesteal. Sounds pretty good to stabilize against aggro. The question is: How often you'll get those 2 together? And do you survive to turn 5 against aggro? I don't know.

[@TheRPer]

I'm 100% with Sean on the Mastiff / Dire Frenzy combo

[@esaedromicroflora1247]

just remember the Day9 reaction to Patches... one of the few of seeing the now obvious meta-defining power

[@stoneysrpgs7927]

Can you do a segment about helping people with their magic deck builds I know there's a lot of channels that do it but I think it would be interesting to hear your take on the subject

[@frankhendriks1224]

I fucking love day 9

[@OldSchooledTV]

Shudderwock & Zola the Gorgon combo seems to be super broken if you give them taunt with Wyrmguard and copies with Saronite Chain Gang. Every turn you'll be looking at a wall of minions, especially annoying if he used corpse raider for the deathrattle.

[@Ishsa]

*casually mentions molten Giants with charge as example of unbalanced* That's a deep cut man

[@alladeenmdfkr2255]

Lol at the Duskbat.I was like "what is he talking about?"that card was never used as far as i remember,not even in zoo.Then someone said to him its a battlecry card

[@carlsaganftw]

Glittermoth + Vivid Nightmares synergize with the mindblast priest experiment deck....

[@robwarriors62]

Sean, you delectable man. You have such a way with words. I see. I click. I laugh.

[@dylangianino7616]

3:08:42 I couldn’t help but think of Gail the Snail from Its Always Sunny

[@Arbeta10000]

So piper draws banker, which you then play to get shudderwock to put a copy of itself in your deck which you can then draw using the piper's battlecry ability? Seems legit to me. (I know you probably need to play piper and banker twice for it to do that, but hey. You'd probably want to run two of each in such a deck anyways, right?)

[@AceofStars101]

2:23:40 Baku the Mooneater power upgrade ranks (Sean's List)

[@danniwebcomics8280]

I've been waiting for this!! Thank you mister 9.

[@Temujim]

Hey Snap freeze is a great spell to discard with Book of Specters! Dont completely dismiss it like that. Total sinergy there! xD

[@Quiltfish]

Chazwinkle best card.

[@dansaunders1655]

embers of ragnaros is arcanest missiles; greater arcane missiles is just even-arcaner missiles

[@TheShadesOfBlack]

Hearthstone should have a mechanic where all your unused cards add to your dust count monthly. That way there'd be an upside to all these cards in my collection just collecting dust.

[@KnownAsKenji]

Dire Frenzy seems ridiculous. +12/+12 in stats for 4 mana. I suppose it could be reasoned that it's slow, but Bonemare was a bit slow too and this feels like that level of power, on crack. It's incredibly consistent on top of that, it works well with so many beasts I could write paragraphs on it. Maybe it's just fine and helps Hunters enough against the other decks. I dunno. I kinda fear it.

[@friskynips7024]

I agree Sean the echo'd mastiffs should keep the buff but hey that's hearthstone for ya! XD

[@theprogressivecynic2407]

Nightscale matriarch + vivid nightmare + circle of healing = 4/9, 4/5, and 2 3/3 whelps for 10 mana.

[@AuraXars]

I like how all His examples of elementals for mage är all Odd, :thinking:

[@Bobthebobs]

Best shoutout ever

[@frezz9083]

*Sees "Pick Pocket"* Thinks Pavel Pocket

[@Tacobell1384]

I really want to see a Day9 explains cubelock to his mom video now.

[@briansabogal1879]

Probably my first time watching a full video of day9. He’s basically a hearthstones less douchey version of Dane cook.

[@dansaunders1655]

Dane Ine

[@gooblop]

Day9 please stop being confused about Echo even as a joke before we lose our deckslots.

[@KnownAsKenji]

I'm glad someone said it.

[@TakeThisification]

Been waiting for Sean's caffeine-fueled rant review!

[@tkorful]

Shudderwock is the Bombadil Cunclesnootch of Hearthstone

[@evandude121]

Day9 is my spirit animal

[@MyNdFrEaK420]

I havent watched a day9 vid in a long time. I missed you sean x,D

[@RM_3D]

Vivid nightmare that nightscale matriarch and heal it n get 2 3/3's and a 4/9, also they are both odd costs

[@diegorodriguez974]

Damnit! I was going to try that Mastiff Frenzy combo.

[@diegorodriguez974]

Hell, I'm trying it anyway

[@BTTFF]

Duskfallen plus alarm-o-bot. Turn 4 10 drop.

[@ArkasScarlet]

Why do I even bother watching other card reviews? D9 is by far the most entertaining.

[@salierii536]

What do you think about poisonous? Seems like a strong mechanic in this set.

[@TheShadesOfBlack]

I'm very disappointed with that Echo buff thing. I can kinda understand why it doesn't work that way. Like that echo slime thing but significantly more powerful. But I'm sad.

[@trackts]

So, I opened 3 bonfiere elementals while day9 was talking about it.

[@maximal99334]

The Witchwood is my favourite expansion so far! I really love a lot of the cards and new mechanics, I love the spooky forest + worgen theme, and Monster Hunt will be even better than dungeon run :)

[@Hopebestman]

Do you have any tips for quest mage?After Cabalist's Tome and Babbling Book mages have only few options for the quest.Meta always changing i know that but i think it was too soon to leaving the quest.What do you think about that? Sorry for grammer mistakes!

[@nar6en]

only one add... daynine is the best, say whatever you want this man is my favourite upon them all

[@JuanMartinez-hw3tf]

He called Arugal, gotta give him that

[@AlexhandrDenthanor]

If you want echo to keep the stats you have, play Eternal. ;) Though echo functions differently there. It clones the card once. So a 2/1 with echo, you get a second 2/1 with echo. But say you play a card that buffs the next creature in your deck. You draw that card, it's got echo and it's buffed. Boom. Second card also buffed.

[@MPCreates]

This is the most entertaining card review I’ve seen 😂

[@gooble1]

Tyrantuses or Tyrtantii?

[@Redhotquagmire]

59:35 ...does anybody else notice the foreshadowing here? Tell me it's not just me.

[@aragon26583]

Baleful Banker counter to Dirty Rat+Doomsayer
