[@havelard]

what in the f?

[@sirvladharkonen6200]

That Dreadsteed + N’zoth play is just evil

[@tomsandstrom338]

+SirVladHarkonen nooooo ;_;

[@hiccups1980]

Imagine 7 dreadsteeds on the board and you have no "power overwhelming". That would be baaaad. You can not play a card anymore. Dreadsteeds are not always good. ;)

[@helynt1]

Loving the double videos Kripp

[@MagmaRagerinoKripperino]

A 10 mana card that dies to two 3 mana cards. I think that says all...

[@resention8230]

+MagmaRagerino Kripperino This is so closed minded. N'zoth himself is not where the value is - it's in his effect. Yes, N'zoth might die to spells. But guess what? They're removing a 5/7 that does nothing AFTER he's played, instead of the threatening minions he resurrected. Boom, you opponent is now behind.

[@rogerfrost3979]

+Kel' Thuzad Lui au moins il est en standard :p

[@CultOfMonika]

Thank you

[@jacobs398]

Also 11:47, it's so nice to make plays like that now since Lightbomb is gone.

[@UndeadGary]

:(

[@Skycania]

+Jacob S Opponent still dead =/ even if he had lightbomb and healed face

[@TheAlphaLucifer]

+Jacob S Lightbomb is still playable if you go to Wild mode.

[@LiangHuBBB]

I am asking this out of curiosity. What's your opinion on Nzoth, do you think this card is way too strong? It seems like decks build around this card can beat anything if Nzoth hits the board and there are not many cards which can actually give you the tempo / board control back. Having Sylvana, tirion or any other strong deathrattle card back like this is pretty strong. It is currently one of the main cards I lose too in case the match comes to late game and most of the time I am ending up into late game because control decks are the main decks Im playing. Thanks for reading.

[@АртемИванов-ю8ъ]

+Dixen it's good topdeck, but it's not needed, cause he had sunfury protector, so whatever

[@Yostemite]

That second game was one of the best I've seen in a long time

[@LuoDuen]

How? It was mostly boring

[@WootmansayWOOT]

Remember the GOOD old days, where you could prove your deck is BETTER with decks such as Face Hunter? Now we got all this RNG meta, with yogg saron and blizz trying to compensate for some of the missing cards, wild mode simply doesnt cover it, we all know that face is the place. We must remove these nerfs, #faceusblizzard #makehuntergreatagain

[@ililillilillliliilil]

[@RinKokonoe]

+WootmansayWOOT No. I don't ever want to see that plague breaking out again.

[@mr.pancakes8502]

Oh gawd no not the plague that lowers people's intelligence to a box again

[@danister69]

I would vote for this man. But seriously, Face Hunter is still playable. It makes me feel gross

[@gawo9616]

+WootmansayWOOT No one play yogg at high level , that card is just fun , not really made for constructed :p

[@huldu]

That last game was quite awesome.

[@erwachsen519]

Anomalus fits great in Nzoth Decks Kappa

[@bunniz]

It does seem as though you can teach an old God new tricks.

[@4523167098]

Phew, now i feel better for getting N'Zoth out of a pack recently.

[@stonerkebab9498]

The only reason id never play this deck are the dreadsteed soundeffects

[@Arm4g3dd0nX]

Still tempted to make a wild priest N'Zoth Reno deck with Clockwork Gnome, Zombie Chow, Haunted Creeper, Museum Curator, Huge Toad, Dark Cultist, Harvest Golem, Mechanical Yeti, Piloted Shredder, Sludge Belcher, Corrupted Healbot, Piloted Sky Golem, Cairne, Sylvanis, Reno Jackson, Dr. Boom, and N'Zoth. Then toss in a Circle of Healing, Power Word Shield, SW:Pain, SW:Death, Velen's Chosen, Thoughtsteal, Auchenei Soulpriest, Excavated Evil, Holy Nova, Vol'jin, Cabal Shadow Priest, Entomb, and Lightbomb for more control. I'd make this deck right now but I'm missing N'Zoth and Cairne and I have plenty of dust to craft em but I'm still hoping for the meta to settle down as I'm interested in 11 legendaries and only have enough dust for 6.

[@FlamingCharge]

+Arm4g3dd0nX I wouldn't recommend running some of the weaker ones like Clockwork Gnome and Haunted Creeper personally. It makes you less likely to get some of the bigger, stronger deathrattle minions like Sylvanis and Cairne back, since the 6 minions you get back are likely to be crappier. It basically lowers the quality.

[@dororiok]

11:30 azure drake into blackwing corruptor to kill tirion was actually lethal

[@Kindersonde]

That game against the pally was I think the coolest game of Hearthstone I've ever seen. All the ways the game was drawn out, and the crazy variety of cards played. There were multiple cards that used to have entire decks built around them, all used together. Just fun to watch. Too bad I'll never spend enough money on this game to be able to try either deck.

[@timpw6316]

The way he says 'Caine at 2:22 lol

[@Noblebatterfly]

23:33 Why murloc knight summoned old murk eye? Was it wild or it's just bug?

[@E0011]

+Vladmir Chekhov Blizzard inconsistency

[@NSisFTW]

No, it's not a glitch. Wild cards can be summoned through random effects in standard

[@eduflip]

10:30 "He topdeck C`Thun" What about your Uldaman Keeper 5 seconds later?

[@apocalyplant68]

Already have a N'zoth hunter and I'm pleased with it but I am wondering which other deathrattle deck to make. Which one should I create next: Rogue or paladin.

[@CuriousMoth]

A change they should probably make regarding the old god legendaries: add the 'cannot be targeted by spells or hero powers' to Yogg. It kills itself so often that as it stands right now it's the only old god that is loses you games and isn't ever worth playing.

[@Fingers998]

no that sucks then nzoth cant buff itself

[@Fingers998]

i mean yogg saron

[@Fingers998]

i mean yogg saron

[@troll098ify]

+CuriousMoth You do realise that it'd still be affected by it's own spells because they aren't targeting it, right? They're all random effects.

[@CuriousMoth]

TROLLOFGOD Is that right? So if you play a Sogoth and they play a Yogg, it can still randomly get Fireballed? That I did not know :p

[@WiseAlbatross]

triple old god concede paladin... what a nightmare

[@hellnickyable]

N'zoth works like AnyFin can happen right? let's say if i play sylvanas and "gang up " and like 2-4 of my sylvanas died , then when i play N'zoth , does he respawn the numbers of my sylvanas had died?

[@מיריתאליקים]

How murloc Knight summons old eye? its out of standard and its not seems like he play a wild game there

[@agent00koll]

was the last game in wild? i thought you could not use that 2/4 charging legendary murloc in standard (i know it came from murloc knight but still...)

[@ubererhs2898]

infested tauren is still shit, even with nzoth

[@Bananenbauer123]

+UbererSK In fact it should be a 3/3 OR the spawned slime should have taunt too

[@E0011]

+Bananenbauer123 Yep

[@atilalexander]

+Bananenbauer123 In their heads they might be thinking that it is a yeti (separated in 2 bodies) with taunt, they ain't gonna buff it any time soon...

[@tehf00n]

Found a Twisting Nether pretty much vital against control decks who can handle the zoo. There always comes a point when you need to board clear in those cases.

[@miniels]

Not that it would be very good unless in a very specific situation but if you played Anub'arak and it died a bunch of times, when you played Nzoth would it summon a number of them?

[@Mathmachine]

I'm assuming since in Standard he's preeeeeeetty good, in Wild he's absolutely insane.

[@ChaosAngel4274]

+Mathmachine With Wild you have sludge belcher, piloted shredders, Haunted Creepers, etc. I mean my Nzoth Hunter and priest in wild beat everything I went up against, and I'm still missing an infested wolf and second call of the wild to make it more consistent. Museum curator is even better too, so yeah, I'd say it's Preeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetttttttttttttttttttttttttttttyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy good. XD

[@mauriceflores3343]

I got rekt by a Druid in Wild. By the time N'Zoth came out he already played Malorne + 2 Faceless Manipulators + Barone Rivendare. I literally killed like 10+ Malornes. If your wondering how I let him get that far into the game it's because the rest of his deck was removal and healing.

[@vijaygarv]

7 years later, that N’Zoth Paladin match was amazing.

[@danimgomes3308]

I opened an Arena pack and got golden N'Zoth, however, I dont have all of the Deathrattle Legendaries, like Sylvanas. Should I dust it and craft a card that is good alone? Like Sylvanas or Tirion?

[@pepinillorick5741]

+Daniel Gomes Yes, those two cards are really good. if you have few legendaries then better craft silvanas because is neutral.

[@danimgomes3308]

Julian Lopez Zalazar Okay thanks for the help dude ;)

[@danimgomes3308]

Julian Lopez Zalazar Add me #11835

[@pepinillorick5741]

done ;)

[@dunstless]

If you play the druid card "soul of the forest" will the affected minions be resurrected by n'zoth ?

[@fabianmellberg9178]

No

[@FriedChickenballs]

Nope.

[@SamSarin772]

no, only minnion with vanilla deathrattle, therefore it wont work with soul of the forest, unearthed raptors and ancestral spirit.

[@TheLolilol321]

+dunstless nah

[@onrev]

How does it work with infest? can you infest giving deathrattle effects to any creature then resummon them or do they base cards HAVE to have deathrattle

[@XXANDERALEXX]

How did the Murloc Knight summon Murkeye? I thought in standard you can't summon non-standard minions

[@furycurry1346]

What about skeleton knight? I don't have Cairne (dust him some seasons before lol), so I tried to replace him with skeleton knight. This is pretty good vs control if you manage to win a joust at least 1 time

[@uproar6733]

How did the pala get the charge murloc in the last game? Isn't that card out of standard?

[@Electru522]

How did that Paladin get Old Murk Eye if this was a standard deck? I thought summons only summon standard minions (which Old Murk Eye is not)?

[@S1L3NTDr460n]

In that last game, how did murloc knight summon old murkeye? I thought he rotated out of standard

[@JaffaOrNot]

How did he get Old Murk-Eye from the Murloc Knight? Aren't all reward cards in wild now so you wouldn't be able to get it from any summon minion?

[@Fingers998]

i got it too idk

[@Eros12289]

N'zoth has (In my opinion) one of the best introductions a card could ask for. Creepy voice with angelic female vocals? Yes please.

[@Cheesus-Almighty]

+Mitchell Edwards And of course this is coming from a weeb.

[@Eros12289]

I wish I was a weeb. The type of music I love listening to usually does have female vocalists. What does being a 'weeb' have to do with any of this?

[@brentonanderson4325]

does n'zoth work off say a king krush that has been given an explorers hat or say a raptor that gained a death rattle? or is it purely limited to cards that original had death rattle

[@isaacintner5831]

No, but it works of a sylvanas or tirion that has been silenced

[@flexingdwight269]

I have a question what if you give n'zoth a deathrettel and then copy him (with rogue kart or dupli ) and then play him again then you have unedlie n'zoths xD

[@yes1810]

crafted a golden n'zoth first day of expansion after I got rid of Dr boom and the nerfed cards. Haven't regretted it once :)

[@lilPavs13]

I pulled it the day of the drop

[@dustinsaunders314]

c'thun and N'zoth who do you think is the best old god. think about cthun in the sense of other cards you can add because of him

[@FusionMissile]

Hey guys, I can make either ragnaros lightlord or Edwin vancleef (so either n'zoth paladin or n'zoth rogue), what do you guys think is better for climbing the ladder? Thanks in advance :)

[@samcornelissen7121]

Ragnaros lightlord and edwin are both good crafts. Nzoth palain is top tier for sure. Edwin is a must have for miracle rogue, which is also toptier. N'zoth rogue is allright, but not a toptier deck atm. So both are fine, realy depends if you rather play control paladin or rogue

[@toadofsteel]

N'Zoth is also good in dreadsteed decks, and keeps them viable after Baron Rivendare got rotated out.

[@mubbywub]

+toadofsteel a 10 mana worse onyxia?

[@regal133]

Hi is Nzoth paladin able to hit legend rank for this season?

[@iMpacTbySkil]

Would N'Zoth work with cards like Unearthed Raptor? It isn't a deathraddle card, but has a deathraddle ability.

[@aachherrle]

it doesnt

[@talanock]

Does N'zoth summon a minion that you put Ancestral SPrit onto? If so that could be pretty interesting

[@anonymousvagrant]

+talanock No, it only summons minions with the deathrattle text except for unearthed raptor.

[@utopiaoflove]

How does it work if you give a minion dethrattle resummon this minion?

[@imdorih9594]

What is the name of program that he uses(to see cards in his deck)?

[@jasonbfleece9420]

+Im Dorih Hearthstone deck tracker

[@GoodaleNation]

Does anyone know what the winrate of Kripps N'zoth Dragon deck was?

[@JamFunkTV]

I crafted N'Zoth a few days ago and I havent used it much :/ might give the pally another go with Tirrion Sylvarnis and a few more.

[@lukasgalli]

I got a golden nzoth should i disenchant it?

[@singularity1130]

+Babbel Ad? Will it help me understand if Krip thinks this is pretty good?

[@zeeying]

would've won that last game if he didn't take continuous double sylvanas hits to the face for no reason

[@sansundertale8765]

I pulled this in under 20 packs of Old Gods, third legend ever behind Cenarius and Gruul. Needless to say, I am extremely tempted to sink money into the game for Sylvanas, Cairne, Thalanos, Xaril, VanCleef...but mainly Sylvanas. Definitely grabbing LoE so I can live the raptor dream.

[@kacper7716]

I don't know what should I do:P Should I craft Zerus (legend:1/1/1) to my midrange decks (I love thia card!), or nzoth to my deathrattle hunter:P

[@kacper7716]

?*

[@exxon101]

+Kacper Wyszowski Zerus isn't very good.

[@Szili0]

+Kacper Wyszowski Zerus is trash, I've disenchanted 2 of them already.

[@typoded]

wait isnt old murk eye a wild card? how did he get that

[@pwenkojammy2894]

i have never seen a video maker that makes TOO MUCH content for me to watch lol Kripp your commitment is amazing, keep it lit fam

[@GabrielSanches20]

Wait... How the hell did Murloc Knight summon Old Murk Eye if that is a wild-only card? o.o

[@juliang8676]

don't think the collectible cards have been removed from standard yet, heard there was a complication with that

[@choonoomoonoo8256]

What's Kripp's full paladin deck list here?

[@aubreymackay4986]

Is there a deck list anywhere? Thks.

[@timhake6956]

I dont have cairne bloodhoof, should i still craft n`zoth?

[@anonymousvagrant]

+Tim Häke if you consistently play at least 2 classes from paly, priest, rogue, hunter

[@timhake6956]

ok thx! so i dont have to replace him? Maby i will craft him later

[@anonymousvagrant]

+Tim Häke if you're consistently playing standard, craft him as he synergises the best with n'zoth. But if you're on wild, there are better cards out there

[@peterpfankuchen]

Hey Kripp, it would be very interesting if you would make a Video on how N'Zoth performs in specific classes for example Mage with Rhonin. I build this Sort of a Deck with it, including Cards like Malygos for backup plans and cards like effigy to maybe get some other Deathrattle Minions and it performed really well in my Opinion. I would be very excited if you would use other Classes to play with N'Zoth and I would be very interested in your Opinion on how good N'Zoth performs in a Specific Class and wich Classes perform better with N'Zoth than other classes. Thumbs up, if you would like to see it! :D

[@silafuyang8675]

Does N'zoth work with the "give a minion deathrattle..." spell?

[@mattdavies3440]

+si lafuyang no

[@JeremySteinWolfe98]

if you put explorers hat or soul of the forest on a minion and it dies does nzoth resurrect it?

[@Zictive]

+Jeremy Stein No, because Nzoth only resurrects "deathrattle minions", cards that are given deathrattle effects are not considered "deathrattle minions"

[@AllThingsEntertaining]

I don't think so. Unless the minion you put it on is already a deathrattle minion it probably isn't affected.

[@otakureiss]

no the card itself needs death rattle in its vanilla state

[@nateperry5526]

What does N'zoth say when he is summoned?

[@markeithjones3137]

N'Zoth say "I taste the essence of your soul" when summoned.

[@WannaComment2]

So wallet warlock is a thing now?

[@RogerSullivanNOLA]

N'Zoth was the first legendary I opened. I already had Sylvanas, Tyrion and Cairn, so I started experimenting with him right away. I found out pretty soon that he was a great card. Crafted Princess Huhuran and Xaril to go along with him, but not too much success with them yet.

[@TempoHack]

+Roger Sullivan xaril is great

[@RogerSullivanNOLA]

***** I'm not saying she's not, I just haven't really tried to hard to make any Rogue decks. I'm just getting started with it.

[@xBrayJay]

Huhuran is super fun. I mean, on curve she hits infested wolf for two 1/1 beasts, and turn 7 you hit high mane or sylvanas for some awesome results and get a hero power in.

[@BartiderWaldschrat]

Did he intentionally miss lethal in first clip? Ping Tirion with hero power, circle of healing, kill tirion with auchenai, hit face?

[@xdChizzy]

If you were to give a card deathrattle with something like explorers hat, would it be summoned by N'Zoth?

[@Lostincyberspace100]

+PrimeZ No

[@A_Random_Raven]

+PrimeZ Nope only vanilla Deathrattle

[@ParadigmZwei]

+PrimeZ Nope. N'Zoth will only revive minions that had Deathrattles from the very start.

[@darjim4116]

played a game with a fatigue rogue that had this summoned 5 deathrattle minions with a gang up on reno, powerful card to fill the board late in the game

[@WolfiePrime]

what about decks that have good deathrattle synergy Hunter/Rogue

[@patrickbettermann2777]

I really like N'Zoth/Reno rogue because rogue has a lot of good deathrattle minions like pillager or squidface and shadowstep on N'Zoth to play him again is just pure savage.

[@Morec0]

... But, I like Infested Tauren. I run it in my C'thun Priest deck and the Taunt/2/2 minion it provides me with has been really useful when I just need to block/clear shit.

[@yotoyloko]

Murloc Knight can still spawn old murk-eye? That's fucked up!

[@ParadigmZwei]

+José Ascencio They were only just retired yesterday. This footage was no doubt recorded before then.

[@yotoyloko]

nice to know that, I really had no idea about it.

[@markeithjones3137]

I know it is wild, but wasn't Old Murk Eye suppose to be a 1/1 instead of 2/4?

[@yotoyloko]

No dude, you are getting it wrong. It's Standard but Blizzard said Old murk-eye was out of it just like the other "reward" cards. Old murk-eye was, and still is a 2/4 o_O

[@ParadigmZwei]

José Ascencio Old Murk-Eye and Captain's Parrot were kept around a little longer because Blizzard felt they hadn't been clear enough regarding when their quests would be removed from the game.

[@CRAETION_]

why did Forbidden Healing heal 20 at 21:31?

[@lancelot2099]

afflicating shade is actually a totally reasonable death rattle effect.

[@TyranusRex721]

Just constructed him for my deathrattle Rogue deck. Want to make a Hunter deathrattle deck too.

[@strongside4565]

Wouldn't the dragon pally be better off with Either Rag Lightlord or Forbidden instead of Alex? Alex is a dragon and all but I don't feel like getting your opponent to 15 will ever be a win condition when you essentially have two Tirion's and a plethora of other heavy minions.

[@dylanb2990]

+Strongside yeah rag is better imo

[@UgandalfTheBrown]

Crafted it golden. Not a single regret has ever crossed my mind

[@kutaykoc9067]

04:09 MC Kripperino droppin' those hot beats

[@gamer22887]

that game that went into fatigue was so intense

[@TheAlphaLucifer]

Its pretty good card. I never played Rogue until this card. Depends on what deathrattle minions you're going to use.

[@dittoelectrode6064]

you think infest / explore's hat let's minions come back?

[@kangookangoo9646]

5:18 gameplay starts.

[@AgusB91]

Kripp, could you please make a review of Fandral Staghelm? greetings from Argentina

[@mekklord]

6:04 this guy visibly went to bird school, which is for BIRD

[@guiorgy]

had the option to craft either Silvana or N'zoth... Went for Silvana...

[@VieneLea]

Why is there an old murk-eye? Why did Kripp play Wild?

[@Legionxzz]

+VieneLea isnt old murk-eye classic?

[@VieneLea]

Lucian Andrei It's promotional card. They were supposed to move it to wild.

[@jadanejda9674]

@19:10 Wasn't it just better to steal his Tirion, than keeping Sylvanas alive?

[@marijnkonings7635]

+Peter Nielsen thought so as well, that cost him the game imo

[@treycarmody]

+Peter Nielsen he can't steal tirion the only way to kill sylvanas was attacking tirion or hellfiring both will kill tirion as well.

[@AaronTheC]

He can't.

[@dustincampos3226]

sick game kripperino!! keep doing the good work

[@bogymanthedark]

I don't have tirion is there a replacement?

[@nutsplice5248]

+youmightnot haveseenthis But I don't have that card..

[@bogymanthedark]

+Gost craft it

[@nutsplice5248]

+Bogyman Noobman Why don't YOU craft tirion.

[@bogymanthedark]

+Gost wish I had the dust.....

[@nutsplice5248]

+Bogyman Noobman Hey did you get the new adventure?

[@KaelanSwan]

Q: do you like the new 4/2 Loot Hoarder?

[@eliaspettersson8300]

How about Usher of Souls in this deck? =)

[@wolfernater]

noxious thought infested tauren would be really good, when it was spoiled he was singing it's praises all day.

[@xBrayJay]

Corrupted healbot is good, and cyclopian horror is good as well. Kripp just hates non greedy decks because he thinks aggro is a joke and shouldn't exist instead of teching around it. These are both very nice in a control centered deck suited for anti aggro situations.
