I Made Hearthstone Player Rarran Rate The Darkin Cards

[@Snnuy]

This was a blast to record, I hope you enjoy it too

[@estesh8049]

Happy new year

[@silva81]

Yeah I could only watch it in his channel but now it's here too

[@SlowChemicalXV]

I love these videos, it does feel like you have a blast with these. You two put me in a good mood, always entertaining!

[@SuperLotus]

If you want to give Rarran video ideas, he should try building his own decks and playing them in ranked (during the Kaisa season he played 100 ladder games with meta decks, so it would be interesting to see a comparison)

[@vincichen8604]

Hey, should i get the eventpass? Or should i wait for the next one. Will any of the future battlepass ever present a board on the pass aswell? I wanna know if it is worth it to get it.

[@kazinewaz2419]

Let's be real here. The only reason snnuy made this video was to make rarran say baalkux

[@brunop.8745]

And I wouldn't have it any other way

[@drewdressing612]

[@Linesweeper]

Rarrans the type of guy to rate his gf a 2 star to her face before seemlesly segue into why his mom is an undeniable 5 star. Love him.

[@GandalfTheSilver]

Is there something you wish to confess, Linesweeper?

[@mrhankypie7901]

Runeterra really went from "I play minion" to "I am five parallel universes ahead of you" with the introduction of darkin equipment's. Poor Rarran

[@ReigoVassal]

It's go from "YGO gen 1" to "YGO 2022" real quick

[@soleo2783]

Sounds like every other card game

[@lempi]

You're probably the most creative content creator for LoR we've seen so far. Branching out to work with others with great ideas for videos, thank you!

[@heavyadrelingblogs5630]

Rarran almost transformed into Jhin for this video.

[@ArcaneAzmadi]

This one, moreso that most past videos, really illustrates how being a Hearthstone player doesn't really equip you at all to evaluate LoR cards. The games really only have cosmetic similarities; the ENORMOUS differences in tempo (since opponents can react to your plays immediately) make them play completely differently, so what is worthless in one game can be game-breaking in another (or vice versa).

[@joedumas1047]

Lor ressembles way more magic than heartstone tbh

[@soleo2783]

​@@joedumas1047 yep, hearthstone kinda reminds me more of gwent than lor

[@doolittle8888]

Snnuy: pronounces Aegis correctly Snnuy: wait a second let me mispronounce this for a second

[@IceBen4444]

I love how Rarran isn't afraid to say Baalkux as many times as he can

[@nguyenhuy9300]

Joraal gets bonus stars bcs he's a poor boi and really needs a hug.

[@stevenoneil8563]

Love how basically every rating he gave turned out to have at some point been true in some meta at least. He's just straight right that Darkin Staff is actually a good card.

[@Despresso-ht6ce]

Was looking forward so much on this video, you two together make such good content. Looking forward to more in case you'll do them :D

[@Citatel1412]

I love how the video doesnt end when the content ends but rather continues into rarran coping and sunny going "BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!" and hovers that threat for the next collab also you and rarran should 1v1 in each games rarran plays a deck you made in LOR and you play a deck he made in HS (though, I heard HS is pricy to commit to making decks compared to LOR)

[@SeanBoyce-gp]

These two are so pure. They just like talking about card games and it's so much fun to watch

[@Matthias-pj6th]

Xolanni is what people in the MTG community call a "Timmy Card": It's big and cool with a really powerful effect that's awesome when it goes off, but isn't consistent or even good half the time. Despite Timmy Cards usually being neither consistent or good, they tend to see a lot of play anyways just because they look/feel so awesome when they go off.

[@dominikk6531]

This bromance is really taking a turn :)

[@mic211]

Spirits Unleashed is used in GP-Sej, which isn't a bad deck. I think that 2 stars is a bit too low.

[@Snnuy]

Yeah to be fair this was recorded ~2 weeks ago when plunder wasn't really seen anywhere. Like I said in the video it's a really good card but just didn't find a deck at the time which made me give it 2 stars. If Freljord had more "generally good" cards/playstyles we'd see spirits unleashed A LOT more

[@mic211]

I agree. Considering the time at which the video is recorded, it really makes sense. Thanks for the clarification.

[@mountingfailure2309]

When thinking about high cost spells, always remember this game has spell mana

[@TheJackMouse]

Rarran: "I mean would I pay 1 extra mana to have a minion that could potentially refill 1 mana and get a bonus? Yeah, I mean that's not the worst thing I've ever seen" Escaped Manasaber: "Am I a joke to you?"

[@AnGush33]

Should've mentioned Rite of passage in the reliquary segment. It is by far much more important than any other acolyte sources.

[@cookies23z]

Since rarran will never see this: I love him

[@justjuniorjaw]

Rarran is just perfect for this content.

[@friedrice7]

Yes, the video I look forward to every expansion

Rarran whould propably rate his best friend 1 star if he ever whould be in a need of a wheelchair because "he's to slow".

[@aruanmello9320]

we all love Ballkux from time to time

[@GlennJDano]

Always love when you and Rarran collab!

[@captainPA1N]

I'm surprised Rarran didn't see the Jade Idol parallel with Ruinous Acolytes

[@danielalejandrohernandezde1258]

A love the content you both put out! Evaluating each others games and cards. They are an absolute trest. Keep it up!!!

[@ryanblood5375]

Poor Rarran got Baalkucked. ....hehe.

[@Accidental.Creation]

Someone: "Baalkux" Everyone: giggles We are all children here, lol.

[@doodlegarbage6769]

I love these collabs!

[@Iriusguy]

I really want Rarran to react to Glorious Evolution

[@2Siders]

2:30 it’s weird because you can pay 1 mana for +1/+1 or 1 mana for Tough individually and that’s not that good

[@elnazknl4517]

I love these videos, good job on always making great content ;-;

[@CoolerMartin]

I can’t believe he missed the acolytes they’re literally just jades

[@Noobie2k7]

The way I looked at ad judged the Acolyte package was to compare it to Jade Golems, except it's even better because the Reliquary is basically a Jade Idol that not only gives you a Jade Golem to play but also replaces itself in deck. I don't play Runeterra at all and say this package was turbo broken immediately.

[@paperknigth2263]

19:28 that's literally a lie. "Everywhere" in Hearthstone is written as "(Wherever they are)" and works exactly the same that in Runeterra. Rarran is talking of cards that say explicitly "In your hand, deck, and battlefield" text that meets the distinguishable characteristic of not saying "Everywhere" anywhere.

[@xoroy8694]

Rarren literally looked at jade idol but for runeterra and said “eh it’s not that good I wouldn’t do this in hearthstone”

[@UberSeamus]

I love when you Colab with rarran, and im happy you introduced me to his channel. I havnt played HS since beta but enjoy watching his content regularly thanks to your colabs :)

[@showd6229]

I of course want to see more of this lol, not just champs but just a lot of the more interesting followers.

[@balintgyuri6555]

Alternative title should be "Trying to embarrass HS player by making him rate Darkin Cards"

[@bencegergohocz5988]

I haven't played Runeterra for like 2 years but these are always funny.

[@shrubninja6444]

As somebody who recently got back into the game and mostly only plays Path of Champions at the moment, it's really funny to see how massive the difference is between how good these are in traditional LoR vs PoC. Aatrox's deck in Path adds a phage item to the darkin staff, making it an insane +2/+2 that refills spell mana and gives impact for just 1 mana, but in regular games it's absolute trash haha

[@DanatronOne]

Snnuy to Spirits Unleashed: "YOU'RE A FIVE STAR CARD WITH A ONE STAR DECK"

[@Its_steve1217]

I actually played a deck I started as a meme with a bunch of poros using spirits unleashed that ended up being Farley strong so was happy to see it pop up in the video 😂

[@viniciuscrespo8612]

I didn't know Rarran was so funny! It's a shame I don't consume anything of hearthstone otherwise I'd see him

[@BoyDugo02]

I was about to suggest this exact video on Rarran's channel.

[@TheGSone]

Haven't really played runeterra, but the black flame seems absolutely busted. There's like 5 million followers with effects when attacking, and you can pick your favourite and make it uninteractable

[@ernyestrategias]

Oh man I enjoy the se videos so much

[@yateslough8178]

This video made me smile so much. I love these card game boys

"What are these names" Ancient Egyptians on a power trip

[@fetroch373]

Xolaani is now a 3-4 with the Poro deck which is quiet intersting

[@stolsto8099]

Plz more of this it's so enjoyable I love rarran

[@staren1991]

how quickly Rarran forgot about Trampling Rhino

[@OKIGorgon]

17:05 I dunno. I play Xolaani in my Gwen/Viego deck, since, thanks to Hallowed, i basicly guarantee Empowered 16.

[@Dunhilina]

Black flame would be neat in HS for aggro, t-1 leper gnome into it or something seems really good if you got one per turn.

[@pedrovilar6123]

Still gonna bat my chest that i knew Reliquary was 5 stars before live. I get why it was nerfed but it sucks probably my favorite form of aggro Really cool video, love some colabs

[@shadou1234567]

the Ruinous Acolyte are similar to Pogo Hopper in Hs, that you really dont think much of the card until it gets going and turn into a meta deck out of nowhere

[@Noobie2k7]

The whole Acolyte package is more akin to Jade Golems. Since you just constantly generate bigger and bigger dudes infinitely.

[@shadou1234567]

@@Noobie2k7 Pogo Hopper do the same thing but with a lithe more set-up. i don´t think they are that diferent. Jade Golens would usually abuse of the late game where there is no more draw besides more jade golens, while pogo hoppers try to be faster about it

[@aberrantreptile]

Nice Baalkux bro

Hey, I love ur vids!! Would you happen to upload any Hunt Showdown in the future?? I am a fan of the game

WhatAmI (the #2 rated guy on NA ladder) currently runs baalkux in his kindred aatrox. I dunno if he did when this was recorded though

[@Tutajkk50]

I very much appreciate the effort you put into the editing, and maybe it's just me, but I feel like the cards moving up and down were a bit distracting when I was trying to read them.

[@philipok1]

Reliquary looks like jade Idols, of course it would be busted

[@gamignman267]

Surprised Rarran didn't get ruinous acolyte right, it's basically just jade idol but better

[@amethonys2798]

Ruinous Acolyte is that card you tell Pogohopper not to worry about

[@youcancallmegeorge9874]

Rarran almost got the darkin memo instead of two r's he should've be called Raaran

[@noneofyourbusiness3288]

Raran: "Demacia is a cringe region isnt it?" Amazing insight for someone who doesnt play LoR. ^^

[@rinkujoka232]

Well he played and got gold during kai'sa expansion..... So he has some knowledge

[@igorporfiirio4915]

8:13 I just call it Stuart

[@MalorienL]

Ruinous Acolyte just reminds me of Jade Golems of old.

[@aname1190]

Snnuy you are wrong. Staff is legit 5 star in 1 deck and 1 star in every other deck

[@pinchylobster7392]

Welcome Rarran to the comments you said you wouldn’t look at!

[@nick1wasd]

Ruinous Acolyte is sorta reminiscent to Jade Druid of days past in Hearthstone; which is to say, slow but escalates into nonsense after around 7-9 turns

[@poro3246]

While you acknowledge how good SPirit Unleashed is, you still only gave it 2 stars? It's litterally the only reason why Freljord sees ANY play at all, just for this single card and there are a ton of tier 2 decks running this. After Aatrox/vayne nerfs, this card will become a tier 1 deck printer. Also, Joraal is the single best non-champion Darkin in the game. All other darkins are mostly the weapon but Joraal is game winning against a lot of spell heavy decks. As an Ionia lover, I really hate it when opponent plays Joraal. So much so that I do everything I can to keep a minion with Aegis alive to prevent them from playing Joraal. It's insane how strong Joraal into open attacks can be. Once the opponent World endered Joraal into Styraatu and I was so damn happy, he basically handed me the game doing so.

[@asurafire5386]

how has Rarran called targon Ionia EVERY SINGLE TIME it HAS to be a running joke at this point.

[@fearthyduck]

Ruinous acolyte reminds me of jades is that a fair comparison? I don’t play this game

[@Snnuy]

it is! but it's much easier to get the chain going (and much harder to play multiple acolytes in a single turn)

[@McTerrox]

10:55 steven harvey maybe i butchered it tho.

[@sugar5374]

I have to disgree with The Black Flame take. 2/5 stars is actually on-point with how its decks work right now. It‘s similar to Spirits Unleashed so why did one get 2/5 and the other got 4/5?

[@Snnuy]

This was recorded before Christmas, black flame was everywhere and freljord wasn't even a region until plunder became playable as counter.

[@sugar5374]

@@Snnuy Ahh fair enough. I still think the discrepancy between the two for the current format is a bit misplaced but I guess it was right back then. I would probably still put Black Flame a bit higher than Spirits just because IO is not FJ lmao Great video btw! I really enjoy the crossover with Rarran on both of your channels
