Hearthstone: Trump Cards - 248 - Mad Skillz - Part 1 (Mage Arena)

[@xIPatchy]

I've watched over 100 of these and I'm only now realizing that Jens puts the mana curve for the run right in the thumbnail.

[@Voidknight17]

+Patchy how

[@Bogard2312]

+Patchy Never realized that until now.

[@SondaroSasuke]

+Patchy really? xD I guessed it some time ago, I was like "wait what if Jens is doing this?" and he was lol

[@seanhenry2704]

+Patchy Praise Jens

[@xIPatchy]

+Anton Lindberg PAGY if you look at the mana curve shown in each run and compare it to the mana curve for that run's deck, they are always the same. I used to just assume that the mana curve shown in the thumbnail was a generic one that had nothing to do with that run's deck.

[@douglaslawrie3449]

"I must attack that minion with taunt... I must attack that minion with taunt... I must attack that minion with taunt..." "OR SO YOU THINK!" *sadness* "oh"

[@doodl344]

Gotta love these arena runs, Trump doing F2P is my favorite.

[@fartmuffin3254]

Trump goes 12-0 by the end of the next episode. Thank me later.

[@tunafishmaki]

+Slothyn its the journey that counts right?

[@kajetan4809]

This is now top comment. Nobody is safe!

[@fartmuffin3254]

Rngamer Some men just want to watch the world burn.

[@ninehills42]

At least do you have run spoilering? How does it feel to you when you get spoilerd?

[@xyz-yg4vr]

I like knowing. Perhaps I'm weird that way.

[@Perfect-Cherry-Blossom]

14:00 Flame Lance = Kel'Thuzad nerf confirmed 2015.

[@soysoss12345]

Kelthuzad was never actually op or anything sooo yeah...

[@OnADistantWall]

+sumu115 That's half the joke.

[@soysoss12345]

OnADistantWall but doesn't flame lance then nerf all the giants, ragnaros, and every other card that's less than or equal to 8 health? Where's the joke if the "nerf" can be applied to pretty much anything?

[@kalixkatt]

+sumu115 well you must be fun at parties

[@calleturegard3884]

+Vidar Burström HAHAHHA :D

[@louiistudios]

"This guys like 'he keeps playing the mana worms really poorly' " aAHAHAH dead XD

[@Terioth]

21:00 Correct course of action: Attack taunt totem, fireblast spell power totem, kodo the 2/6 guarenteed, polymorph belcher, have the option of attacking into 1/1 or 4/1

[@TheBarret89]

+Terioth not only would that be a worse play, he doesn't have the mana to do that. ;)

[@Terioth]

Wow, you're right about the mana. I don't know how you figure his play is better though

[@TheBarret89]

It's worse because the 4/1 lives which can easily trade in for one of his minions. Its not important to kill the 2/4 (not 2/6) with the kodo, because you can easily kill it with your minions anyways. The difference is just 1 health more or less on one of your own creatures. If you had the mana, instead of killing the spell damage totem, ping off the 4/1, play kodo take a 50/50 on what he kills and kill whatever is left. That leaves the opponent with only a 1/1 sheep and no favourable trades, instead of with a 4/1.

[@California0aura]

Shih you are an inspiration. I listen to you before going to sleep. Either this or rap battles.

[@California0aura]

Or South Park

[@fabricioferreira3646]

FUN FACT: A little while ago, when you googled for "Trump", our Trump would actually show up before the Donald one. Good times.

[@dwolozny]

Trump: This guy should be like "he keeps playing the Mana Wyrm really poorly!" Great video as always, jens keep it up!

[@randomchicken01]

I think my best secret synergy in arena was just now when this guy used spellslinger (I was Paladin), gave me a Burgle, which I player, giving me Ethereal Arcanist, gave him a hunter secret, , then I topdecked Kezan Mystic, stole his Hunter secret, and ended up as a Paladin, with a Hunter secret, with a Mage card that gets buffed by secrets.... good times

[@blyjd91]

Only Trump would pick Flame Lance over Force Tank and still do well in arena.

[@rahn45]

+GunvorPlays Why would you pick Force Tank over a removal card?

[@blyjd91]

+rahn45 A pretty shit removal card thank you very much :)

[@rahn45]

GunvorPlays So Assassinate is a shit removal card?

[@blyjd91]

+rahn45 Assasinate is better than Flame Lance obviously. That thing goes through divine shields.

[@peterzhao7628]

+GunvorPlays Although flame lance is not as efficient as other removal cards, (polymorph and assassinate are good examples) it often holds value for the user (i.e, removing a boulderfist, shado-pan, pit fighter, fel reaver, etc.) without too much of a tempo loss and maybe even a tempo gain. Force Tank, however, is a high risk card - you risk losing so much tempo by dumping all your mana into one fattie in arena that does nothing the turn that it's played. Of course, when you're ahead or tied with your opponent, force tank is a seemingly good card; however, that should not be your reasoning while drafting. Cards that make an immediate impact on the board should be chosen over those that do not (in most cases).

[@TrxSlasher]

5:15: That RNG tho. Laughed so hard xD

[@Silrace]

More arena is always good! Arena is one of the more enjoyable parts in Hearthstone, atleast to me personally.

[@LiangHuBBB]

why picking force lance over the tank?

[@NebulonBMedicalFrig]

+LiangHuBBB He had enough late game threats already, removal was more important. Too many late game threats just clogs your hand.

[@TheExoticDarkness]

+LiangHuBBB Force lance

[@RokOD]

It wasnt a mistake to flare before playing mana wyrm at 25:45, the secret could have been repentance

[@Cole444Train]

Suit spewer. stop it trump. staaaaahp.

[@tornado100able]

+Cole444Train Levio-saaah

[@SGTMVRK]

I think this is actually the first time I heard Mage attacking

[@tsunamininja]

So many people complaining about Flame Lancer over Force Tank Max, I don't see what's wrong with that pick in arena with the cards he already had. Compare it to polymorph: Polymorph: 6 mana for total removal (poly + ping) poly gets rid of divine shield and deathrattles Flame Lance: 5 mana if 8 hp or less 7 mana if divine shield and 8 hp or less 7 mana if 9 hp Doesn't remove if 10 hp or more (Ancient of War? I dunno) All in all it's pretty good removal imo, since >8 hp are few and far between

[@SuperBBQgaming]

Except polymorph silences the minion which makes it infinitely better

[@ninehills42]

+kaan malçok all in all, trump needed spells cos of the 2 manaworms, and its a good removal, especially that 6-7 hp minions are common in arena. Tank is also pretty nice, but its kinda slow i think. When you are behind, you dont want to play it.

[@Maren617]

He didn't have the option to choose polymorph, it's arena, right?

[@sebastjankosec]

any mage paladin or rouge i see aginst me or in a video or stream has a amazing draft and always draws exactly what they need to when they need to and then i play mage and either get none of the good cards or when i do start off turn 1 with duble flamestrike kraken and no playable card till turn 5 yay

[@andersont2496]

Cry more

[@Alsmir]

+sebastjan kosec There is a secret tactic: if your draft is anything but great - retire and try again. That's why arena is even worse than constructed.

[@marukusu1983]

I just started watching Mr. Trump a few months ago, and a lot of people seem to not be aware that Mr. Jen's does the editing for his videos. You think it might be a good idea to put "Edited by Jen's" in the video description or something? Or how about putting some credits at the end of the video? =)

[@kianst1834]

Trump, you need to pick 1 dropes more often especially in a low curve deck. Sure they die to a fireblast but they lose so much tempo that you just storm them out of the game early on

[@ImperiousViking]

Flame lance over force tank max? have you lost your mind, Trump?

[@beanot]

+Seth Schallau he said flame lance, not flamecannon... they are two different cards.

[@SuperDurjan]

+Seth Schallau also big difference in card quality between flame cannon and flame lance

[@seb6809]

+ImperiousViking i agree picks flame lance over tank max but skips cone of cold for a dragon hawk rider with all the early game he has instead for a card that can stall a big minion allowing him to hit face more often and push for dmg. value town mayor was a bit drunk i'm guessing

[@jamilthemaster]

The rogue made such a huge mistake in the first game. He attacked the mad bomber with his face setting himself down to 4 (frostbolt range) instead of killing it with the abusive sergeant. He still would have had lethal the next turn with 6+4+1 and he would have been at 7 instead of 4. Trump would have lost next turn if the rogue didn't get so brave.

[@DillonHinx]

Playing Flare before Mana Wyrm is correct because of Repentance. However playing Rusty Horn after attacking still was incorrect.

[@mrbdp932]

What happens when you flare into a counterspell?

[@strzaskanyalf2928]

Remeber that time when Trump said that even after TGT he just cant see a competetive paladin secret deck? Or when Trump said that Grim Patron decks will just not work.

[@VespaTTV]

The quality of the video.. It is 1080p 60 HD I can tell on some parts, but the game itself and Trump's cam look like 720 and below. ??? The text isn't a clear as it used to be.

[@only20frickinletters]

+LolyourDead100 BabyRage My cardstone streams aren't as clear as my porn. BabyRage

[@chunlee8805]

Trump try making a bloodknight deck where you have alot of divine shirld (i would use palladin ofcourse)

[@MsSakkal]

Trump out by the tournament , but i still watch you KZbin channel :-)

[@TerraP]

When is Trump playing these Arenas? I never see him stream lately....

[@kemp10]

Does Trump suddenly have something against using plural nouns?

[@Corgigirl901]

It amazes me how he plays the Ooze so gready and doesn't even get punished. If I played the Ooze as a tempo card against a weapon class, it'd be guaranteed they have a Death's Bite/Doomhammer/Truesilver etc right the next turn. ._.

[@Maren617]

I don't think he would dare to in constructed.

[@Drako2k0]

39:40 the huntard ragequit lolol

[@freddiesimmons1394]

HotPinkCentr Really has no idea how divine shield works

[@Breakfast221]

I must attack that minion with taunt.

[@Victus_Mortuus]

These are re uploads right? or am I going crazy?

[@20x20]

suit spewer?

[@merecat1234able]

the new inspire thing is stuid sometimes it just makes minons act like normal minions

[@PitangerTrad]

I've only seen the 3 first games in this video so far but... Holy shit trump, Grand Crusader gives you Hammer of Justice, Blessing of King and Avenging Wrath Oo? In Arena these are almost the most powerful Paladin spells you could get apart from muster o_o...

[@ZanloAstron]

+Pity Anger It gives you a paladin card not a spell so it could of given him Tirion

[@alexluna6238]

+Zanlo ye

[@Mathmachine]

Trump got Mad Bombz to go with his Mad Skillz yo.

[@InsaneClown2]

My magic WILL prevail!

[@FeOfTheElement]

Has trump made an arena tool?

[@pancakes9332]

Did jens upload the arena run where trump spaces out?

[@TheUnedableGamer]

+pan cakes Naaaa it was to narly yo

[@cameronclayton8059]

someone has posted it but im noy sure who

[@bindair_dundat]

If you are not a Shaman and get Shaman cards with Overload, they shouldn't give you the Overload and should give it to some random Shaman doing arena somewhere. I could totally live with that.

[@TheCraigy322]

Trump. Great hearthstone player yet still can't pronounce soot.....

[@SamYeahTotally]

+Ben Comer oh you mean the suit spewer?

[@MasterLapin]

+Ben Comer Well, those skills aren't connected XD

[@robertgalinas9820]

+Ben Comer I thought the same thing. I even went so far as to google the pronunciation. Turns out he is right.

[@Warclam]

+Robert Galinas Where? I have found precisely zero countries, or even dialects, in which soot in pronounced suit.

[@ryanjoseph8286]

+Warclam And yet there is no incorrect pronunciation.

[@connorliddicott2076]

29:11 I thought trump broke there for a second

[@ArbiterDan]

nice! thank you Trump!

[@bastokrepublic]

Why does the Gadgetzan Jouster get +1/+1 at 13:00?

[@bastokrepublic]

+Benjamin Hartnett woooops, just realized -- Stormwind Champion. I thought it was a Joust bug.

[@vkvk24]

I wish I could be god at arena like Trump

[@AzSa5z1nGaming]
