Hearthstone: Trump Cards - 132 - Part 1: Trump Signs a Pact with Demons (Warlock Arena)

[@JBehnen]

This must be one of the most entertaining arena runs ever! :D

[@Strigori88]

Can't wait for part 2, this draft is really entertaining. Summon hordes of Demons all night long. Wondering if there is a viable constructed deck thats similar to this, im bored of the zoo and handlocks... :/

[@underworldmark4922]

yep Realz played in recent tournament using void caller based deck and against Amaz in the final.

[@notbobby125]

"Drink, Trump, claim your destiny. You will get 12 in arena."

[@xRichhhx]

Gul'dan and his bro's, just casually combo-womboing their opponents

[@mlgeskimo1534]

At 17:31 , I hear that Druid saying in the Venture Co. Merc voice, " You, You gotta be kiddin me!"

[@JohnClausen]

I'm kind of a Hearthstone nub, but one thing I have noticed is that the timer is a little dumb. You can be constantly making plays, and the counter still counts down (search for "biggest VanCleef ever" and you'll see how the timer punishes you when you don't deserve it). It should be that with each card you play, attack you declare, and move you make, you gain some time back on the counter. If you're AFK or not doing anything, you lose time. If you're making plays, you don't get punished by the timer and the long animations. You should be playing against the opponent, not the system.

[@THEGREENHELIUM]

What a riveting tale lad, but it requires more dragons!

[@Daleks172]

To be honest, your idea is kinda terrible :l

[@JohnClausen]

DarkAlex4545 Can you explain why? That's the system on other card games, and it seems to work fine. I really can't see a problem with it. I don't mean you reset the timer every time you play a card. Maybe like add 10 or 15 seconds back to it. It lets you make the plays you want to make without having to worry about losing to the timer.

[@Daleks172]

***** Well, the timer goes down faster thing if doing nothing is not a good idea, because people could be just thinking, like you see a lot in tournaments, and the add more time when putting down cards thing would make it longer than it should be I think the timer should be stopped when its doing animations and such, like the knife juggler throwing 20914102 knifes, but I don't think this remove time and add time mechanic will be good.

[@JohnClausen]

DarkAlex4545 I think either you misunderstood me, or I didn't word that particular sentence very well. I didn't mean that the timer would go down at an increased rate if you're not making plays, it would just tick down normally.

[@heart0fthedrag0n]

Trump's got the whole Burning Legion on his board. Daymn...

[@TheMrt666]

Jake Long YOU FACE JARAXTRUMP. YOU FACE JURAXTRUMP. VALUE LORD OF THE BURNING LEGION.

[@b4time10]

+T The Omega New fav comment

[@M1ndHeist]

I've seen this arena run on stream and the only thing I should say:"Trump definetely sold his soul to demons!". Well played, sir, well played!

[@langa77777]

I can't believe you beat that Druid with 3 swipes so casually....

[@BillyTuckerGaming]

"oh wow I'll get both If both oh whoa ahfwthefwahaha" You ok there trump?

[@arpyzero]

What's between a Void Terror and a Faceless Manipulator? "Copy adjacent minion card text, then Silence those minions."

[@Schist025]

Oh gods, that would be silly. Using that with two Ragnaroses adjacent gives you two 8/8s and 16 damage per turn xD

[@flo2052]

Schist025 The 2 8/8's, and then Rags card text: "Can't attack. Deal 8 damage to a random enemy character." so technically 16 damage guaranteed, and another random 8 damage. :D

[@Fiiischinator]

That would be a fun as hell cardxD

[@DownrightDarius]

Drew Parker since you copy the card text of both adj. minions you would technically get a minion with 2 rag effects, meaning 16 random damage per turn and 2 8/8's, just as he said

[@DownrightDarius]

Drew Parker although I suppose it would depend on if effects can be repeated. Obviously we just answered that question 2 different ways just now.

[@innerfire2399]

17:22 Best expression ever. "He's like WOWOWOWOWAWO"

[@BlazeCyndaquil]

30:40 The "artosis" play would be to tap, then soulfire anyways, and hope it discards the card he drew by tapping.

[@F0feCat]

Dayum the voidcaller sounds so sexy when it gets played

[@niass55]

Did that last druid just wild growth turn 8 ? o_o

[@kindyak7]

After reading the title, I was waiting for the moment, when Trump picks "Sacrificial Pact".

[@rav3style]

did he just stumble into a working demon deck?

[@squigglylines2381]

Those draws were too insane, doubt that it would work half as well anywhere else.

[@HELLOSKYYY]

Can someone explain why did trump at 30:41 did not soulfire before he used doomguard for extra 4 dmg?

[@BestInSlotGaming]

Soulfire discards a card from your hand, so he'd have lost the Doomguard.

[@steakanator8955]

***** But, Doomguard discards 2 cards, meaning there's a greater chance DG would have discarded Soulfire. It is actually, most of the time, a better play to soulfire before playing DG, because you would be more likely to play both.

[@BestInSlotGaming]

But he only had two cards in his hand... either he discards Doomguard or he discards Soulfire, no other choice, and since Doomguard is the better card it was the logical choice.

[@steakanator8955]

oh, THAT game. :p well, my bad, i was thinking about a different instance. but still, my logic is still technically correct

[@TacticalGI]

Steakanator True, but doomguard is immensely better then soulfire, so if you had to choose, you'd almost always go doom.

[@zackarywhitson1132]

This was my favorite arena so far!

[@MrWagermajor]

When you poweroverwhelm a minion and you copy it with the faceless, does it also destroy itselfs at the end of the turn?

[@giuseppefroio5360]

Yep

[@JackFroster]

Faceless creates an exact copy of a minion so any buff applied to it (power overwhelming, blessing of might ect) will also apply to the new minion.

[@BarskeMannen]

"So I'm gonna attack with the Azure Drake and trigger the Get do-" "NOT ON MY WATCH!"

[@phillipg3036]

Are you going to update your liquidhearth arena guide with the new Naxxramas cards?

[@RafaelGonzalez88888]

12:30 thought you could get Jaraxxus on field? since its a demon

[@HOV2131]

Trump-" So I'm going to attack with Azure Drake to trigger get down." Argent Protector-"Not on my watch!" I died.

[@Mineboost]

I have So been waiting for this!!!!

[@TheSonicShoe]

20:35 *spoilers?* "I'm going to attack with the azure drake and trigger the get down." "NOT ON MY WATCH!" *ded*

[@gustavobarbosa9799]

"That third match was CRAZY"! - Kripparrian 2014

[@lyingpancake95]

You shall never doubt the power of demon synergy again.

[@KhakiChan]

I love Warlock arena drafts. All the picks sort the flavor of the deck.

[@Siddios]

That druid was probably thinking "You gotta be fucking kidding me!" Disgusting luck Trump! Disgusting! :D

[@VerbotenDonkey]

Ah I loved this Arena run. Gave me hope for a different style of Warlock!!

[@mamyluly06]

'This is where Trump's demons hide, this is where his demons hide' xDD

[@Chiyumee]

poor twisting nether such a waste of a brilliant animation. Just lower it by a mana or 2 and it will be good.

[@ivokoev7857]

You mean overpowered.

[@DRACONAR1US]

Ivo Koev Flamestrike is almost always a one-sided board clear for 7 mana. Brawl is almost a full board clear for 5. Twisting Nether between them at 6 sounds perfectly fair to me.

[@Schist025]

Ivo Koev Equality+Wild Pyro does the same for 4 mana. While it does require 2 cards it is still a lot cheaper than a potential 7 mana twisting nether.

[@sphreez4866]

One of quite a few cards that cost just a bit too much, would at least be a bit more playable in handlock at 7 mana.

[@patricksachs9642]

Schist025 Divine Shields.

[@DrWeltox]

How is it to display cards coming out of the deck to the left?

[@mariusweber4990]

17:00 well that escalated quickly! :D

[@dianas.8947]

some days ago i got an arena deck with 4 void callers in it, and 4 other demons of which 2 were dread infernals. it was really fun. then in one game of the arena, i had all 4 void callers in my hand at the same time :D i played one, and everytime it died, there was just another one which took its place^^ the second one i even randomly traded into my opponents 4/4 minion, just because it would be "resummoned" anyway :D it felt like it had "deathrattle: resummon this minion" :D and when the 4th one in a row appeared, my opponent was just like: hmm, well played :D

[@MrFreonize]

19:15 if that paladin secret was avenge you would have been so screwed

[@T3DNR3D]

I love it when a demon deck comes together.

[@tehgamernoob9329]

25:47 blood imp just saved the power overwhelming from killing void? XD

[@xanderhenk]

just a general question in to the direction of the fans, what happends if get down triggers and there is no room on your or the opponents side of the board

[@adamdixon6368]

I believe it wouldn't activate if the opponent's board was full, but I'm not entirely sure.

[@Janskie]

I believe it activates but doesn't summon a minion, thus your minion doesn't have a target so it just goes back to the board and its turn is used.

[@xanderhenk]

ah oke, tnx for the help guys!

[@justme503]

I don't think Doomguards ever said "who dares summon me?!" or "a paltry task". Pretty sure those were Felguards in WOW that said those lines. Weird that it's mixed up unless I am forgetting.

[@Mazra42]

Voidcaller deck is full of win. Add a Sense Demons, a Shadowflame, and Baron Rivendare, and be prepared to blow minds. I mean, it's probably not very good past rank 5 or whatever, but it's so much fun!

[@Zarcyne11]

6:08 did anyone else hear the weird dialogue with the scarlet crusader

[@kisamexsx]

After seeing this arena a question popped in my mind... Right now, how viable is a Demon Warlock deck?.

[@Warsong16]

i love how i get no epic's to draft, and you always get at least 2....haha they just love your account bc u stream their game. love the vids tho man, keep it up

[@Jaricko]

All the dream plays in this video... Wow!

[@PowerWordFace]

why does warlock never play out like this when I select it in arena :)

[@lProN00bl]

Is trump ever going to complete his ranking for warlock cards?

[@blyjd91]

This deck really delivers so far. Though I have a feeling it will fail epically in the next part :/

[@dementedchicken1]

Does anyone know when this game was recorded?

[@SilverCorked]

if i had 1600 dust, what legendary should i get? if the card is better with control or rush let me know, plz thanks

[@shrub8246]

God this deck is insane. The synergy vs that druid was crazy haha, I think it can go 12 wins granted you get a decent draw (not doomgaurd soulfire hand).

[@dirkbrouwer6281]

19:20 what if the secret was avenge that you would have been doomed

[@malomartiniani6012]

Trump you missed lethal at 31:13 with the bane of doom

[@phyrisl2]

He should have taken 4 twisting nethers. Would have been epic.

[@friedchicken2465]

No, no it wouldn't have

[@phyrisl2]

The animation though! 4 times the purple!

[@Armoredman347]

Dominic Waters Guldan would be proud.

[@ParryDox]

Man, I would have loved to see Trump's reaction if he found out that the Pally secret was Eye for an Eye instead of Noble Sac.

[@Ajoscram]

Don't do it Trump! Don't drink the demon blood! I don't wanna be green!

[@oniuserjh]

i was waitin for a poison seeds some where... lol

[@jaimegomes8844]

I am honestly regretting melting my bane of dooms for dust.....this deck is almost construct worthy. And fun as hell.

[@BugCatLove]

Looks like the Alienware has a contract with Blizzard making the randomness really cool.

[@typen6095]

This is the best arena in like months... :D

[@Brngcoi]

"Get down is a bad card" *Ruins tempo until turn 9*

[@antourte1]

Man, for all the talk of how useless Noble Sacrifice and Light's Justice are, they sure seem to have locked him the fuck down for a whole game.

[@DFox-kv9pi]

Wow you are sour. Did you have a shitty arena where you had to pick like four lights justice and three noble sacrifices? That would make me sour.

[@UserName0043]

Dawson Fox Yes :(

[@Nirotic]

If I had been one of your oponents the first two turns I would've raged sooooo hard. €: ok, the third is just as evil

[@defrte]

The burning legion arena run haha

[@UchihaItachi4355]

New Video! Awesome, thank you Trump.

[@seccius]

Jens you're a champion, thanks mate

[@ZebraLord13]

I feel so sorry for that first Hunter. He got combo wombo'ed so hard.

[@thisguyducky]

Can someone explain why he took bane of doom over twisting nether? I am curious.

[@BestInSlotGaming]

Twisting Nether is awful, that's why.

[@ЕвгенийВакуленко-м9щ]

It may looks like a good card, but it just destroy all the creatures. No more for 8 mana and probobly you can't put anything on the bord for 2 mana. And then your oponent just play his minions and have a full control on the bord.

[@Orillion123456]

Imagine you took flamestrike, increased it's mana cost by 1 and then made it also kill all of your own stuff, leaving you with nothing to put on the board while your enemy has one turn of full mana to fill the board with. Like most warlock spells, it's strictly worse in every way compared to the mage card it's based off.

[@UnknownXV]

Orillion123456 But flamestrike is usually played when the mage has lost board control. Twisting Nether is a solid card if you're behind and losing, it can turn a game around that otherwise would be a certain loss.

[@BestInSlotGaming]

Except that you only get 2 mana to play anything else on the same turn. The ONLY time Twisting Nether is a good card is when they've got a big board presence and you're both topdecking.

[@Miguelmartyres]

why isn't dancing swords good enough? 3 mana 4/4, isn't that good?

[@NovaWolfPrime]

The stats are really good, but it draws your opponent a card when it dies, which normally, giving your opponent more options isn't the best idea. In something like a Backspace Rogue or other bounce deck, it would be fine, especially if you are able to cause them to lose said draw.

[@Miguelmartyres]

NovaWolfPrime thanks for the explanation, but I think it was worth in trump's case, to pick it instead

[@NovaWolfPrime]

Power Overwhelming was still the best pick. It combos well with a lot of the new Naxx cards (or anything when you need extra damage), such as Haunted Creeper and Voidcaller, allowing them to trade up very well and triggers their deathrattle in the same turn if they survive. Plus, you really can't complain when your Voidcaller knocks out a Boulderfist Ogre and you get a free Doomguard for one mana, hypothetically of course. Dancing Swords is probably a better arena choice over Voidwalker though.

[@Armoredman347]

NovaWolfPrime psst... mill druid.

[@NovaWolfPrime]

Armoredman347 Yeah, that works too. Essentially any deck that wants the opponent to overdraw can run Dancing Swords, but that's more of a constructed thing, obviously.

[@STEFAN9484]

Can someone tell me: what is the combo that the pitlord and voicaller do?

[@hamelama]

When the Pitlord is played, the hero takes 5 damage. If it gets summoned by the Voidcaller, the effect doesn't take place. So you get a "free" 5/6 Pitlord.

[@elkraft1046]

This could have been the amazing quadra vortex of doom deck ;)

[@H-man414]

this is a sick demonology deck

[@YR2050]

Coil over spectral knight?? Missed value!!

[@TheAtticus19]

NOW you tell me Deathlord is bad in Arena! I was looking at your arena tiers, but I couldn't tell where you'd rank Naxx cards. Oh well, so far I'm 3-0, so maybe you're the wrong one.

[@ivokoev7857]

He isn't wrong, please watch his video on all the Curse of Naxxramas cards. In it he explains why.

[@TheAtticus19]

Cassiano Canossa Well, look who thinks he's Sarcasm McGee over here.

[@i_am_ergo]

Yea. A single uncompleted run is totally case in point material on cards.

[@TheAtticus19]

Semyon Galtsev Hey, it's better than all my other runs (yes, I know, I'm terrible at Arena).

[@Meatwad799]

TheAtticus Adam New Fuck off then

[@DeepSpaceNinja]

That first game was so brutal

[@Voider74KS]

This looks like a legit constructed deck with some adjustments. (Dat bloodsail raider)

[@SokkarOne]

now trump finally knows how gnimsh must feel like with those topdecks

[@sKIapptNet]

Why pick a Bloodfen Raptor over an Amani berserker? mistake?

[@Mike-ds4ht]

Void Terror finally makes Demons viable. W00t.

[@weebsharpie6975]

twisting nether 4 times? it wanted to be noticed by trump sempai :c

[@T34rl3ss]

Mortal Coil over spectral knight *facepalm

[@Vincentoist]

This entire video is hilarious

[@calvinli9151]

Would've been hilarious if Trump drafted, and played, all four Twisting Nethers on consecutive turns.

[@SuperVincenot]

That shieldbever from the fourth game hehe

[@propropropropuser]

twisting nether performs rly well in arena actually

[@OsvaldoReplayslol]

As is done for leaving the cards you have on the side?

[@UserName0043]

Lol

[@ryanscott961]

16:19, Trump has a cardgasm.

[@AmssoBadorSpacelot]

Man, Trump really has progressed by not fanatically going for the value play all the time but also rushing down the opponent from time to time.

[@The1ngrimm]

17:30 Meanwhile at the Battle at Mt. Hyjal

[@woo00154]

NOOOOOooooo, I wanted to see quadruple Twisting Nether deck

[@holytouchful]

I like how you predict your wins xD

[@Tinil0]

I am cracking up so hard at the third game...

[@WestPictures]

I've found deathlord to be fantastic in arena

[@Zebo12345678]

I played an arena the other day where my opponent played deathlord and I got deathwing out of it, My thanks to you.

[@i_am_ergo]

After two runs? Three? It's not terrible. It's simply RNG that can instantly lose you the game.

[@MW-qt9ts]

Zebo12345678 You drafted a Deathwing in Arena? Why?

[@DASding148]

Morgan Wood maybe the other two were pagle and greenskin

[@snackfu6709]

DASding148 or overspark

[@MelioraDH]

aww man i was hoping he would take a twisting nether!

[@octavioselgas4653]

That third game was so nasty, brb having a shower.

[@RafaelGonzalez88888]

im surprised this is the first time Trump has gotten the chance to pick a deathlord, its been a while since it was available :P i usually agree with Trump on how he drafts arena but this time he made some questionable picks

[@averagedorksouler9]

why didnt he attack the 0-4 taunt?

[@Fucisko]

How do you want to attack with something that has no attack ?

[@averagedorksouler9]

well its a taunt so he cant do damage to any other minion thats why he would want to attack it

[@OmegaHero123]

The Skyrim Guru The secret wouldve triggered.

[@Fucisko]

The Skyrim Guru So you meant not attacking WITH, but attacking IT...I see. Well, Trump new it is Get Down and it would kill any of his minions, but i think he should've.

[@averagedorksouler9]

Ma4zu6 well ya he had a 3-3 he could have

[@TyranMingHao]

Deathlord is NOT bad in arena.. in fact its OP IMO. Opponent would most likely lose their minions with precious battlecry or get archer/worgen

[@joaocaselatto3239]

Demon synergy when will that ever happens again??
