To be fair, wasting Zeph on oozing the weapon made the weapon pretty high value he traded for

[@chiksnbooz]

Fun fact: For a little while after Shaman lost the Spell Damage totem for the Attack Buff totem, Windshear Stormcaller's battlecry wouldn't work.

[@peshomighty5051]

Don't worry nobody's playing that card.

[@justinvarieur4411]

Yea but we wanted to do it in a way that actually incorporated using the card. Like win using a card off explore un’goro, in a way that was intended in the card

Without the randomness it wouldn't have been that epic though... He'd have won fast.

[@RaventhortheWarrior]

Can we appreciate the decks he's facing here. That reno shaman was absolutely stoned as hell when he made that deck. Rarran not getting slaughtered bt surrender to madness priest by facing a little timmy deck

[@philipok1]

I mean Explore Ungoro has been played in combination with Tony/Geist to destroy the opponent's deck

[@smallquant7650]

6:28 Vengeful visage copy attacked their face and didn't trigger any secrets - that's how you know it's not explosive trap

[@pluca8027]

Void contract actually saw some play in some versions of renolock with bloodbloom but i cant remember in which meta. Explore ungoro was actually played this month in some versions of reno or control warrior that included tony. Some only had it in ETC but some had a copy in the regular deck as well.

[@lukelorianTRON]

Evenlock in the rastakhans meta occasionally ran it as it would empty its deck so fast that you net more cards than your opponent by the play, also there were a metric fuckton of combo decks where dusting 1 card (mechathun/shrvallah) from them won the game

[@vietquang8739]

It was when quest mage with parrot and shudder shaman meta, it sometimes work but not really good still

[@DavidSmith-cr7mb]

yeah i got steam cleanered after a warrior played tony into journey to ungoro on me. saucy but inconsistent.

[@weebtrash3376]

@@lukelorianTRONEvenlock didn’t exist in rastakhan

[@lukelorianTRON]

@@weebtrash3376 It definitely existed? It was literally the best warlock deck (not the version w/void contract necessarily but it did see play in that version). Genn/Baku were retired after the Rasta expac

[@harcklan]

Wild when you have Marianas Trench MMR is such an absolutely goated format, just look at the state of some of the decks he went up against

[@KhristianBolano]

I think the absolute worst was the Priest one because it forces you to build a very bad deck. Warrior one can technically be used as a late game tech against some decks when you feel your deck doesn't offer you a proper wincon anymore, so even if it's bad it has an use

The way the cards read makes it seem like Guff first would have gone up to 17 mana after playing Astral Communion, which would be sick

[@rlsc2902]

One day, I was playing Control Warlock and I faced a Jade Druid. They summoned a 1/1 with Jade Idol on turn 1. On turn 3, I played the 3/3 epic with a battlecry discover a warlock spell and take damage equal to its cost. I ended up getting Void Contract. I knew that the only way I could win this game was by using Void Contract to burn the Jade Idols into their deck. However, I couldn't use it right away because they might still have the card in their hand. So, I waited. When there were only 3 cards left in their deck, they used Jade Idol to shuffle 3 copies into their deck. On my turn, I finally used Void Contract and against all odds burned all 3 copies in a 6-card deck, giving my victory. This was my favorite moment in all my years playing this game.

[@jorickthekek2660]

3:45 I can imagine a lot of people do. I don’t have a good economy of gold, dust or skill to get many cards but I eventually got enough for the skeleton/hero power package in Nathria, eventually when the hero power package rotated I didn’t get to play my full favorite (and basically only) deck that I really loved playing. So I just took my full hero power mage package into wild with skeleton KT high end

[@lukelikessharks]

“It’s a screaming angle” made me laugh more than I should’ve

[@MrPerson101]

There's a combo with king togwaggle, Journey to un'goro, and optionally skulking geist which is definitely not good but is hilarious 😂

[@StAngerNo1]

But wouldn't the opponent just not swap back, if you un'goroed their deck?

[@MrPerson101]

@@StAngerNo1 if you build your deck right, you can burn through a large chunk of your deck with warrior atm That and since you're a warrior with no actual win con, the discover deck tends to actually be better regardless

[@circuits2008]

Dude I feel like I gained some arcane knowledge when he said the real reason he doesn’t use a deck tracker.

[@demuscotecomay]

What if the second Dinomancy would upgrade the hero power? Decreasing the cost and making the buff bigger could be valid options but in order to make the card actually playable they could change it so it also: summons a copy of the target, a copy of the target with specified stats (i.e. 3/3) or a Dinosaur with the target's stats (body with no text or perhaps a random Un'goro adaptation). You still have to draw and play both copies of the card but you won't have a dead card in hand/deck after playing the first copy.

[@hpeek5362]

hear me out what if the second dinomancy gives the hero power "and rush" is that too much

[@TheDemonataslayer]

During the quest mage/cube lock meta I lost a tournament to a generated Glacial Mysteries created by a Primordial Glyph that pulled his last Ice Block which was enough for him to survive my last turn before he started throwing infinite fireballs at my face and boi does that card live rent free in my head

[@pkmnswampmaster]

1:39 Rarran showcasing the Neuron activation meme. What a Madlad

[@MrZerodaim]

I recall the Druid and Shaman ones being rather decent during their time. A bit inconsistent and a bit win-more respectively, but hardly terrible. The Warlock and Warrior ones were mostly meme decks, but more "whatever" than outright bad. That said, my one sleeper hit from back in the days was Poisoned Blade. People would mock it and now that better cards (including better "big weapon" payoffs like Kingsbane) are around, it's unplayable, but I used to have my one copy in Reno/N'zoth control Rogue using Finley to swap heropower and it was actually decent to great - decks would usually slam oozes for low value and Poisoned Blade would shine. One of my favorite and best decks to play during Shamanstone era, both on ladder and in tournaments.

[@nunyabeezwax6758]

Warrior is now used exclusively to Tony + Zin Azshari + Togwaggle.

[@spekloop4952]

​@@nunyabeezwax6758lmao what? Warrior in wild is either DMH, warsong, Odyn, or Reno. Tony is run in Reno, but ungoro isn't a real card and just isn't worth the deck slot in any deck lmao

[@nunyabeezwax6758]

Uses steamcleaner + ungoro to swap decks and permanently nuke yours. Same shit as druid but different card. But yeah it's mostly pirate and Odyn.

[@acorr14]

@@spekloop4952 Explore Ungoro was used in some fringe control Warr decks during Ungoro. Could build a good amount of armour, then use Explore to search for finishers

Astral Communion was actually played back in the day in some big Druid lists

[@JEnduro]

11:36 And before today no one had ever heard someone say these words.

[@Thelittleshow619]

This is probably the funniest video I've seen of yours. Nice work!

[@chrisberg2]

I use Dinomancy in my old wild deck - it is a highlander control hunter with the 2 drop that swap heropower - I used it to make my opponents heropower useless when they dropped their deathknight herocard.

[@benjaminhurtado5119]

can't believe rarran made a video about bad epics and didn't even look at the Constructed all-star card that is Desert Obelisk

[@Rude_i_Wredne]

Is Druid class really that OP that "Astral Communion" is their worst epic? This card was actually played with decent success ever since "Ultimate Infestation" was a thing.

[@MarolandiaopolisTheThird]

Actually, looking now, I can see a few lesser known epics that are worse. gloom stag, astral lion, and crystalsong portal are far worse.

[@trashdoge1217]

Cant wait for you to play these decks again this year

[@InOzWeTrust]

12:30 It's 2024 & I'm waiting for the revisiting Madness episode.

[@ognyannedev5979]

that dinomancy game actually looked so fun until the paladin did a rng

[@felipealvarado8801]

Why you didnt pick the option of using towagle change the deck and then use explore ungoro to destroy the enemies deck?

[@aaronbonita2042]

Dinomancy would probably be easy just doing a Hodir Gargoyle Jormungand combo. It hits for like 60 already

[@TopHatPenguin]

I unironically run wind shear storm caller in my totem deck because like 9 times out of 10 he’s just a 5/5 you would be suprised how often people ignore basic totems for the big stuff I buff leading to funny man spawning

[@XyntXII]

I think if one would not have the maximum 5 secrets but either significantly higher or just no limit the mage card would actually be good, especially now in wild.

[@cblancha1187]

i used to have an explore ungoro deck, which was control warrior, with boomship and Hakkar, then id replace the bloods with explore ungoro and coldlights

[@aiporia1284]

I would just like to say, if you put dinomancy in a deck that even resembles a modern beast hunter, hell even as far back as the earliest copper hunter lists, it’s a pretty easy win. Dinomancy has synergy (even if it’s bad) with a genuine meta wild deck.

[@jobriq5]

16:22 I thought that was a customhearthstone card at first

[@tuannguyencanh6096]

Guff into Astral though... insanity

[@superbaas8822]

Consider that Explore Un'goro was bad when it offered class cards 4x as often. Now... big oof.

[@StAngerNo1]

The correct way to use dinomancy is toplay an actual good hunter deck and then use grizzled wizzard to swap hero powers for one turn and turn their hero power to dinomancy. For most decks this effectively disables their hero power.

[@drakefisher6317]

Unfortunately Rarran, your strategy of not including Ice Block and Whirlpool in a Paladin deck was inferior to your opponents strategy of doing exactly that

[@mrcx6142]

28:04 Don't lie, Rarran, we all know you don't run a deck tracker because chat & comments would go on even more about how the deck isn't built optimally 😂

[@trfinnila6074]

I can’t believe he wasn’t the zephrys ooze tech

[@anabollich3673]

Similar vibes. But how about challenge somebody where you each make 4 decks, the first deck being only commons, the next only rares, full epic deck, full legendary deck

[@h445]

Rarran, you WILL be playing a StM deck in 2024: GUARANTEED

[@dinobeast2341]

This was a modern day epic.

[@nowsmile790]

Man that last game there I wish I was that lucky when I played paladin

[@harryblocks]

Warrior 6 drop epic from Frozen throne that when drawn does 1 DMG aoe to minions? RNG whirlwind?

[@DvirPick]

We discussed this on stream. At least it's an Ogre and with a dedicated pain deck it will be less awful. Explore Un'goro completely destroys your chances of winning unless you combo it with Tony (which was against the spirit of the challenge). Tentacles For Arms was also a candidate, but Ramen said he could make it work with a weapon buff deck (no idea how) and that it would be boring to win with (at least less exciting than Explore Un'goro).

[@TreeFugger]

you were playing a dangerous game against that questline hunter, one flare and you were smoked

[@danielcastellon32]

He says we wouldn’t know it was explosive trap. But we knew it was not explosive, when the minion summoned by the secrete attacked faced. It would have triggered

[@menderbug1]

Would it? I thought your secrets couldn't trigger on your turn

[@klaid7093]

The worst epic card for warrior is definitely Sea Reaver, literally a boulderfist ogre statline with a negative effect

[@charlesc3564]

Okay that kirby music in the background is noice 👌

[@tanngrisnr5076]

that shaman deck was so funny.

[@wolfgangromine8341]

is it bad that I love Dinomancy lol I just think its a fun card. In current hearthstone its pretty hard to use but I like it.

[@giorgisabashvili2664]

epic cards are the wildest cards in HS. not as powerful as legendary cards but just as unique and game-changing, and have more chance to do something original

[@AceoftheVoid]

Dinomancy and explore Un'Goro were great when they came out

[@aaronbonita2042]

Quest Hunter was my sleeper in Twist because it beat Overload consistently

[@JimBob-iv4wx]

Ice Block and Whirlpool Paladin new meta confirmed?

[@1para1]

Explore ungoro has combo potencial tough. If you find away to dwitch your opponents deck, use that, switch it back then boom you kinda hindered any combo deck they had. And on top you can play loatheb or something later

[@ironclad184]

We have to see the completion on the last two, it must be done.

12:35 I hope someone clip this and remind him 😁

[@LabTech41]

I'm convinced, with all the random card production that Blizz has built into the game over all these years, that the main reason for creating such obviously niche AF cards is to intentionally troll players by giving them these options, instead of cards that would actually be useful. It's telling that in so many ways, the most substantial improvement to the game in years wasn't the latest expansion, it was the PATCH that saw small but needed improvements to cards that not only already existed, but which hadn't seen play in years. If you'd have told me a month ago that original C'thun decks would be played in 2023, I'd have told you you were smoking crack, but now that's a REALISTIC option. That tells you how jank this game is in terms of balance. The whole collection needs a top-to-bottom scrubbing to bring everything into balance, and correct inconsistencies that have been there since the beginning, but Blizzard will never do that work.

[@Galavantman]

He should have done the Tony explore ungoro. Have Tony die, then steamcleaner the enemy deck.
