The absolute despair I felt at 37:00 when we got hit with “Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer.”

[@lifealchemy1218]

Same omg I spent the rest of the video looking at how much time was left. I was trying to calculate if there was going to be another run. And as we closer, there definitely wasn’t time. So I was convinced it was an 11 win deck. Then the boss music for the final battle. I was convinced. What an epic edit and epic roller coaster. Can’t believe I watched this whole thing hahaha

[@CountFab]

The editing really pushed the story to a legendary level.

[@bossben22]

100% because of editing, awesome vid

[@lifealchemy1218]

Because there were STAKES! There was a storyline here. Not just a deck knowing it would win, it was spending 52 minutes 29 seconds wondering if it could. Amazing story telling 👌🏼

[@KRS_two]

The retire deck function prevents Arena from being a zero-sum game. If everyone was forced to play out every single draft there would be fewer insanely strong decks. This would raise the skill ceiling of the game, attract more casual players and in turn make the Arena ecosystem much healthier.

[@batuoruc1614]

Preventing conceding is really important with this also

[@RawrGhosty]

even though the retire function was always there (i think?) arena didn't feel THIS crazy hard to get 12 wins like when hearthstone was MOST popular which makes no sense cause there were so many good arena streamers like amaz and kripp and trump etc yet now just cause people are doing this more and fewer people even play arena it's just fucked, it's like the aram accounts for league all over again (i didn't even remember i had 12 wins and i had to go check that's how easy and unmemorable it was to get 12 wins back then)

[@DumpyFrog]

@@RawrGhosty Isn't arena also just much more RNG/powercrept at this point? Compared to when getting a flame strike in your draft or like druid Force + Roar was good. Getting a demon hunter draft where you just summon 12/12 in stats with rush 4+ times is kinda wild.

[@gildias2556]

​@@DumpyFrog lol it's so true. I remember getting 12 wins back in the day pretty easily, when just having a mind control or two in your priest deck would get you 12-0

[@dragonlogos1]

@@RawrGhostyso here the thing there is a lot of difference between the weakest decks and strongest decks in arena now. The cards are crazy. Way too many win cons to draft. That why they doing this guaranteed legendary.

[@bretkent2369]

Congrats Rarran! My first 12 win in arena started with two losses the first two games. Played a 12-0 run after that, I almost retired the deck but was out of gold and played it out just trying to recoop some of the expense. Your first match isn't always an indication of the strength of the deck if it just draws poorly.

[@yukivia4281]

I usually use those videos as background noise while doing other stuff, but this time I had to literally chain my eyes to the screen for the full runtime. Phenomenal.

[@WallnutDan]

Never retire decks. If you don't want to play it, just queue up and concede 3 times. That will give wins to worse decks and make getting to 7 (or 12) wins easier for everyone. For every win in arena, another player needs to mark up a loss, so the more losses there are, the more people get to high numbers with average and bad decks. The only reason HS has the retire button is to make arena pay out less rewards to people. Don't fall for the scam. Never Retire a run.

I've had 0:2 decks go to 12 wins before several times. The best lategame decks often struggle vs the early aggro all-in decks that you play vs at low wins.

[@saltking2715]

this summarizes my recent arena runs, even when i feel like i luck out on the draft, there is always some insane decks waiting at 4 wins or such

Great job Rarran! One of your best videos.

I played the game on and off since launch, I got 12 arena wins twice years ago, but never managed to hit Legend in ladder. Until yesterday! Could really feel the joy you felt when finally achieving your goal!

He is a great content creator, but not a great player. I am not saying he is bad just that there is a lot better.

[@hassanbatayneh7302]

Honestly these types of challenges give absolutely crushing pressure. I remember in this mobile card game that had an achievement for winning 15 times in a row in Ranked, and I’ve never been as stressed playing this game as those final 3 matches. Especially since I bricked the 15th match so hard, I only won due to my opponent playing budget.

[@Labasta_de_Lua]

[@Lotus_gaming95]

"i would love to see you pilot this deck too two wins" is so fucking funny

[@fabrice119]

Retiring after the first loss or generally early is actually the worst thing you can do from my experience. Most 12 win runs I've had, had early losses. Even going 6-2 or 7-2, it seems like games are just much easier once you're in "loosers queue". Funny to see him slowly lose his mind but he probably could've gotten 12 wins sooner if he just rode out some of these decks 😄

[@crystallized1676]

Idk. Back in days definitely that was a case with easier queue (minus if you was infiniter) but now everything is so rng that probably isn't worth persuing (timewise) with 2 loses before 7. For sure though he should do it on a new account so he gets a newbie protection unless he wanted fair 12. Anyway feels bad that after so many years he still didn't have it done xd My longest streak ever with 12-ers was 18 in a row :D Man, good old times when skill mattered... I miss them. Nowadays all you do in gaming industry is sucking co*** for a good RNG ;/

[@kolst]

Retiring a 5 frost strike deck just cuz it starts 1-1 is especially insane

[@Waureiz]

17 seconds into the video, the "crappy" 11 wins scam and Darkest Dungeon stress symbol when mentionning your despair are worth a big thumbs up !

[@kundrad8398]

my greatest trauma related to Hearthstone is being in my 11-2 arena game, actually being in a position to winning it, then suddenly my HS client deciding to have a stroke and loose connection. Till this day I wasn't able to get 12 wins... :(

[@craigb.8859]

I can definitely understand your frustration, think the best I ever did in Arena was 10 wins. I had a friend that played during classic Hearthstone that got 12 wins and then quit playing. :P Grats on the 12 wins!!!!

[@mahockey3]

This was back 5 or 6 years ago, but I made a Warrior deck (bottom 3 class in arena at the time). My thoughts were "this deck might work but it kinda sucks". Lost my first 2 games with it. Almost abandoned the run, then I just said "fuck it" and went for it. I proceeded to slap my next 12 opponents in the face with Gorehowl. My one and only 12 win arena run.

Blows my mind that Rarran had not gotten 12 wins until now, yet Kripp would do so daily.

[@ProkManNeel]

Mean whilst I’ve never reached legend but have 12 wins in arena which I got during festival. Goes to show that yes, it’s the hardest challenge but getting lucky with a good deck is EXTREMELY important.

[@swaggingswagster5357]

back when i started when hearthstone came out, I had multiple 12 wins runs. Heck even a lot in over 1200 total wins I played some arena in march of lich king expansion and it took me solid 40-50 tries to get 12 wins once. most were 5 wins lol

[@Mythikal13]

March of the lich was my first 12 win! My most was 11 before (one night in karazhan). I have to agree though, arena runs now feel harder. There's so much you need to push through with every card having so much value now. I feel like back then basically any decently drafted deck could be piloted to 12, now it's sort of an RNG shit show like the rest of the game lol. It starts to feel bad losing to cards that don't start in your opponents deck and they got lucky. Always been a problem, but its worse now. Could average 4-7 wins before, now only get 3-4 before I know my deck is too bad to even get close to 12. Hearthstone in its current state makes me think of TF2 random crits, there's more discover and randomness for "rare high moments" but every time someone has those moments, it results in an extreme low for the other person who literally didn't even have a chance because their opponent just is better at flipping coins or playing slots

[@urahi830]

because the skill ceiling is a limbo stick that fell to the ground. There are cards so fucking busted that if you don't have an answer you just lose the game, the power level of decks is insane and that means just curving out and making good decisions isn't enough because if your opponent has a good enough bomb he will wipe your fucking board while building up their own

[@andy02q]

It's mmr based now, similar to Duels, except hidden mmr. I have 4k wins on my main acc and the same amount spread over other accs. I used to average 5.9 wins per run and for a couple of years it has been 3.2. Whenever I try Arena on a new acc. then it's 9 wins/run avg. for the first 3 runs and the drops off relatively quickly, but takes a couple dozen games to actually reach below 4. I hate it, because 5.9 was close enough to infinity and I could farm incredible dust amounts, but now farming Legend in Ranked is the first thing to do b/c it "pays" better. PS: Never retire; like wtf? Come on... PPS: I don't think the 100 in 10 challenge is possible anymore nowadays, except on smurfs, which is cheating. Noone has beaten it since 2016-May-12.

[@nt0027]

[@RaxoFilms]

damn the mirror match evil counterpart at the end💀

[@SaidWLYT]

Arena use to be pretty easy to get 12 wins in actually because all you had to do was tempo out. Now it's purely rng you literally can't play around anything

[@user-dn2fy9zz9v]

hey rarran, i am looking for new headset and was wondering which one do you use?

[@leeartlee915]

To be fair, getting 12 wins use to be easier. In the old days of arena, skill could out bail you out. Now, the power level of decks is so crazy that you can just be beaten by default. I should know. I used to be a top 30 arena player for years. Now? My average wins is around 4-5 wins. Arena needs help but Blizzard isn’t gonna do crap to help the format.

[@blizzart9191]

Back then, it was like 70% skill, 30% luck. Now that shifted to 20-80...

[@johnsnow5125]

I had some 12 win runs, and I stopped playing after the second set got out, not counting the times I came back just to play the singleplayer dungeons modes. Looks like HS had some really severe power creep phases in the meantime

[@blizzart9191]

@johnsnow5125 yeh, it's unplayable now if you don't follow the meta and sink in thousands of coins and dust( or money), unfortunately. There is no chance to climb as f2p player, but one time after a super long break they gave me a catch up deck for free, which was strong enough to get legend. Guess what, 2 months later its outdated and unplayable already( went max diamond rank after).

[@FastFoodVicar]

I played for a few years when it came out and only got 12 wins once, with mage obviously. Dont think there has been anything more satisfying in a digital card game though than that

[@andrewjones8267]

That’s so funny back when I first played this game in like middle and start of high school and I was a shitter in ladder so arena was all I played and could win at cuz Kripp used to make content for it and I was watching his vids everyday, I got my first 12 wins fairly quick against some legend player who still plays to this day and is consistently hitting sub 3K legend in multiple ladders every month but I only know cuz we added each other back after the game, I was expecting usual HS postgame bm but he was actually hella chill and said gg, we still sometimes will spec each others games and do friendly games for the quest whenever we have it, such a rarity in HS these days to find a cool person from the og says that still plays

[@Teabarrel01]

“ just in case you’ve never played arena, this is how it works “ rarran there’s no such thing as a new hearthstone player

[@sonamorningstar]

I got my first 12 win with warrior on boomsday. Warrior was generally weak on back in the day because of its weak hero power but it got pretty neat arena cards on boomsday.

[@TheStatisticalPizza]

Hey same, I had 3 or 4 12 win runs with Warrior all during that time period. Since then the only other class I've got 12 wins with was Hunter.

[@andresvaldez5001]

Druid: 👁

[@MinoriGaming]

This video is honestly a really good display of all the reasons I frankly hate Arena as a gamemode. There's only so far even a professional coaching you can take you, ultimately the only way to get to 12 wins is to either retire until you get a god run or buy a Barcode that was botted to do that for you.

[@theGECK042]

Knowing that I’m not the only one who maxed out at 11 wins for the last ten years fills me with determination.

[@michaelt5188]

getting 12 wins is an astronomical feat these days. last i did it was when DK first came out and they still had the 3 rune cards in the pool. i doubt i'll ever go 12/0 again unless i RNG the absolute nuts cards to the point where i should get a lottery ticket.

[@zami001001]

I almost feel bad for getting my 12 wins after like 5 arena runs now. The deck I made was absolutely disgusting though, I remember I had like 5 mana worms and 6 flame spitter, so I had insane removal and damage to boot.

[@Orjahlian]

Ahh, arena. The old F2P grind had me running arenas always, plenty of wins and losses under the belt. But, my goodness, the number of times I'd been absolutely just... Wrecked by draft and game RNG. Actually managed to end up on the wrong end of an old Trolden arena clip without having recorded a single game in my life, took a little bit out of the sting of that absolute nonsense. Felt vindicating to finally get to show off some of the horrific luck I'd have to some HS buddies outside of recounted stories. Got back into HS recently because a friend wanted me to get back into it with him, and have been stacking up arena wins again. Had a 12 win run like, a week ago. Sometimes, no matter how good you think your draft is you're just gonna get rolled.

[@fergusgraem3625]

Playing hearthstone for 9 years now and got 12 wins 5 times. Got 12-0 ones but the draft was so extremely lucky it was close to a meta ranked deck
