Kripp then: I get the whole hearthstone experience every expansion. Kripp now: *BATTLEGROUNDS*

[@HelixElement]

I wish this was done in chronological order so each expansion would be put in context with what the state of the game was

[@TheDerek14]

Kripp doesn't really follow that formula that well. If it was based off of the impact it had on Hearthstone at the time of the release then both Witchwood, Boomsday, and Rumble would be rated way lower then they currently are. The fact Boomsday is rated S tier is downright laughable as a result.

[@joncooper1145]

i can tell you UnGoro was Ben Brodes last expansion i think. i dunno maybe Frost crown too. pretty much from kripps list everything listed below ungoro was older expansions. everything above are in the past 2 years or so

[@amethonys2798]

KnC was also in the bonkers year with MSG, Ungoro, and KotFT all in standard at once. Witchwood and Boomsday were, overall, very low power. Like the Malygos Druid deck tearing up ladder used very few cards from Witchwood and Boomsday. I'm pretty sure it was JUST Ferocious Howl, Floop (sometimes), and Florist/Melon.

[@mateussouza936]

[@TylerAlbers01]

League of Explorers has to be AT LEAST at C-tier, just because it introduced the Discover mechanic.

[@tygonmaster]

You say that like discover is not the most cancerous mechanic in the entire game. Like, yeah, it is fun to watch a streamer get fucked by a discovered spell they literally had zero ability to play around, but playing against that yourself? Fuck that. Discover is the antithesis to skill and the antithesis to skilled gameplay. Just RNG bullshit. Nothing more.

[@kingstiffx2215]

That should give it an E tier lmao

[@TylerAlbers01]

hmmm, you are legit the first people I've encountered that don't like Discover (granted I'm not on hearthstone forums that often, so idk). In my opinion I feel infinitely worse when my opponent gets the right answer from a truly random card. You may feel like you just lost to RNG, but unless your opponent just isn't very good at the game, they will always choose the best options that is most relevant to their current situation. The power level of a discover card doesn't fluctuate anywhere near as much as a truly random card. Any well designed game revolves around giving the player choices. Interesting decisions drive player engagement, and randomness inherently robs the player of choice. Randomness, however, can also create surprising and memorable moments, and gives a disadvantaged player hope so they don't immediately concede. An engaging game balances Skill and RNG. There are many luck-based parts of the game that could be considered unfun. Truly random cards and effects (unstable portal, Yogg, etc.) feel bad to lose to. Losing to draw-RNG can be unfun, and can be amplified by certain archetypes (combo or OTK). Polarizing matchups is unfun RNG as well. I believe that discover perfectly walks the line between allowing for player choice and exciting randomness. TL;DR Discover isn't anywhere near as oppressive as other forms of true RNG, and some randomness is healthy for the game.

[@aznwill12]

@@TylerAlbers01 A lot of people don't like discover, even krip.

[@sillypickle007]

I love discover. It’s a neat thing that you really can only design in a digital card game. It also combines RNG with skill pretty effectively, and it helps games not be too same-y. Yes, some cards with discover have been OP (secret agent, coming through!), but that’s not really the mechanic’s fault.

@@TimoCruz177 If you like the expansion because of few legendaries in it, that's a sign of bad expansion. Good expansion has all cards overall playable while none being cancerously OP for ranked experience. Also how is fun playing against Reno deck with some aggro, knowing they can heal 25 HP at any moment with a single card you can't play around or prepare for is bullshit on it's own. Cards like that are just pure luck if you draw them in time. How skillful it is to draw your Reno on turn 6 when aggro is about to end you and you win the game because of a single card. That's just terrible card design.

I think it was an ok expansion, but in terms of the meta game i think it was one of the worst. Everyone played Genn / Baku / OTK decks. There were a few other hunters / mages trying to survive with the DK

[@ComissarYarrick]

Boomsday have a lot of fun cards ( especialy if you liked playing mech and deathrattles ), but on metagame lvl it was really bad. Druidstone, already oppersive in wichwood, was in full swing, with 50 mana-aviana turns, and psymelon, "draw your whole combo in one card" bullshit.

[@badwulff]

Don't forget that as an Arena player, the Arena meta probably justifies a lot of his reasoning. He did seem to enjoy Boomsday arena a lot. Plus Puzzle Labs were really cool (albeit not very replayable), and they haven't done anything even remotely similar up to now. I'm surprised more people don't talk about them in the history of Hearthstone.

[@petra1099]

It was fuckiing worst expansion in a long while

[@Satherian]

[@frederikvater]

I absolutely agree with WOG belonging in S tier, but LOE does too :c RenoLock is, and will forever be my favourite deck.

[@exantiuse497]

I don't know what kind of crack Kripp was on when he made this list. League at D tier because it had tunnel trogg, yet Whispers in S tier despite giving Shaman the broken card that boosted it to God tier, then nerfing all its counters which resulted in ridiculous 40-50% play rates and no reliable counters? Wtf? Adventure expansions, imo, deserve a higher spot just for the virtue of being adventures: cheaper, had single player content, and almost all card were playable because there was no need for pack fillers

[@henryzelman4541]

Renolock and Razakus Priest are my two favorite decks ever. Playing singleton control/combo is way too fun to pass up.

[@Jonseredi]

Pffft WOG just has the same effect as naxx does where it was a format first. Otherwise it's still pretty good but an A at most

[@henryzelman4541]

@@Jonseredi For me it was the aesthetics and the power level that made it interesting. Besides Aggro Shaman nothing felt too oppressive.

[@Jaigarful]

@@exantiuse497 Well if you view it based on how Kripp played, yeah, his list makes sense. I imagine he was traumatized in Arena against shamans with Tunnel Trog openers and whatnot. Also it wasn't until last year I believe he stopped dropping more than $1000 on packs. The economy side of the game is a non-factor for him. Also memory is faulty. Kripp is remembering his emotional state during these expansions more than the details itself. For example, he loved talking up GvG, but looking back on it, I can only name 1 GvG card. If hes going off the top of his head for this stuff, he's going to misremember. Like he mentions problem cards in Blackrock Mountain Expansion. What were the problem cards from that expansion? If you're okay with Grim Patron, then what was the problem? Flamewaker comes close to its RNG nature, but it was no worse than Knife Juggler. There were a lot of dragon cards. I really have no idea what "problem cards" hes talking about.

Same, I’ve played since beta so I’ve experienced every expansion but I can’t remember the game state/meta for each expansion. I just remember: - Naxxramus was super hyped since it was the first expansion and we had been used to the classic set for a long time. The cards from Naxx were collectively some of the highest power level cards released. - League of Explorers introduced Brann Bronzebeard and Reno Jackson, 2 of my favorite cards in the game - Mean Streets had the awesome tri-class cards and introduced Jades (Jade Druids we’re boring and oppressive but Midrange Jade Shaman was one of my favorite decks to play) - Goblins vs Gnomes introduced Dungeon Run which renewed my love for the game and was super fun and replayable. - Knights of the Frozen Throne introduced Death Knight cards which really shook up the game and breathed new life into the game

Naxxramas was just theme wise such an amazing expansion imo, loved the pve, loved the art of the cards. I just enjoy playing random decks with cool minions,.

LOE remake inc( probably) Feelsgoodman

[@BrendanBeckett]

No mention of discover, the best expansion mechanic ever, in league of explorers?

[@jakeharrison207]

Haven’t played in 2-3 years but still watch Kripp because you can’t leave kripperino behind and your funny and cool man

[@ZombieMonkey7]

Rise of Shadows 100% deserves S tier. Great well balanced set, flavorful theme, best single player mode yet, actual *buffs* for the first time ever, time just flew by with this set as opposed a majority of the other sets.

[@ZombieMonkey7]

@@dummiesaywhat Its called opinions

[@Amandor2011]

Can't give RoS S tier at least for braindead mage decks, but for PVE content and theme it deserves A tier imo

[@deathincarnateatheist7679]

Theme for RoS is alright. The heist is good though. Rise of Shadows is the most boring name you can come up with. Blizzard Activision just came up with the name in 3 seconds.

[@ZombieMonkey7]

@@Amandor2011 Yeah there are always going to be major misses in any expansion and conjurer's just seems like a huge misstep (just look at what they said about mage's weakness) However Mage isn't completely unstoppable killing off all diversity so I think Shadows still deserves S. Think of it like this, for every Un'Goro there is a quest Rogue

[@Bramandin]

19:59 Come on now Kripp. We all know Well of Eternity and Ilidan story arc is the best.

[@brennenyu2523]

Dang I liked LOE and KOTFT. Thought they would be A tier (potentially S Tier).

[@nonofurbizness]

I really liked grimm patron warrior too, especially after they nerfed warsong commander. I sometimes still play a version of it in wild format.

[@ShaadeGaming]

I think you nailed the raitings. Not sure what i would change

[@cameroncarper5290]

Ungoro, knights of the frozen throne, and kobolds and catacombs was the best time in hearthstone IMO

[@Shooshawali]

Cameron Carper, I agree, we were saved from the jades and Patches apocalypse.

[@cameroncarper5290]

@@Shooshawali they couldve nerfed jade druid or completely delete it like they did to genn and Baku. Patches is honestly just a 1/1 with charge that comes out for free IF you play a pirate. It wasnt game deciding. Patches was fine.

[@dominicgunderson]

Facts

[@Revalstarcraft]

Mean Streets by far. So many high-power legendaries *looks at Kazakus Priest*

[@totorofosho]

I came on board during Whispers of the Old Gods. I can confirm that this expansion was extremely fun! As a brand-new player, I was most enjoying my spell damage mage, and then my C'Thun decks! I am so glad that at that time they just gave everyone C'Thun! Very fun!

[@satchmoomega2686]

I'm floored by how many expansions there've been.

[@DiegoHernandez-vv3iv]

Ungoro was by far the best expancion this game had so far

[@dysonsphere2394]

Definitely have to agree here. It came right after the shitty Gadgetzan meta, which in my opinion was one of the worst we've seen. Sure, pirates and quest rogues may have been a problem, but i think almost every class was represented somehow in the Ungoro meta and quests were fun af. Even decks without legendaries were viable, like midrange hunter and zoo warlock. Good for f2p, good for most classes, and 100% better than the jade/pirate meta that came before it. Tar creeper, stonehill defender, primordial drake, and other neutral cards were great too. Ungoro definitely has to be my favorite.

[@genesisosuna]

Tier list for Hearthstone? lol For me ungoro, koft, wotg, and RoS are the best expansions

[@tobiasL1991]

Ungoro is really up there that was such a good expansion. Stonehill defender and the little Tar dude are sorely missed.

Knights of the Frozen Throne was actually Insane. The Lore, the Singleplayer, the fuckinggggg legendaries. Everything was Insane man

[@deathincarnateatheist7679]

I wasn’t playing HS when Frozen Throne came out (more important things like exams were in the way) and I remember everyone during WOTOG wanted a Lich King themed expansion.

[@nickfrost1302]

Such a lovely flash backs!!

[@Quatttrofx]

I've enjoyed constructed only at LoE and Ungoro. Rest, not so much. Gadgetzan was terrible for constructed, but really fun for arena. Kobold and Catacombs was mediocre, but PvE mode was fantastic.

[@QuartzJones]

Overpowered cards that demolished the meta tier list.

[@younzc5409]

"Who am I? None of your business" "Bring out your dead" "Charge forward!.... A fight count me in... My blade be thirsty... Everyone get in here, everyone get in here, everyone get in here, everyone get in here" "Troggs rule" "We're gonna be rich" If you remember any of these from back in the day you're an OG.

[@BlueZombieBlood]

This is a very fun Video!! I really like the idea. Maybe you could do a list with the classic legendaries?

[@deathincarnateatheist7679]

No one card 1) Tirion Effing Fordring. I will absolutely quit the game if they put him in hall of fame and I hope others do to.

[@astrocrapper]

Grand tourney was my favorite expansion because of control warrior lol

[@LordEpos]

I think the list of my favorite hearthstone cards is literally just the list of cards from league of explorers but without tunnel trogg.

[@Mathmachine]

This is the absolute last place I expected a list video to appear, and yet somehow I'm not shocked at all.

[@ZedZerdz_]

If you decide to make another Tier List video, maybe do one on favourite mechanics? Like "If You're Holding a Dragon", Magnetic, etc?

[@like2upload3videos]

League of Explorers, Grand Tournament, Whispers of the Old Gods and Knights of the Frozen Throne are all S tiers imo. They are my personal favorites.

[@sageq45]

Why Grand Tournament though?

[@Gtcarroll96]

Kripp: Grand Tournament is D tier Nexus Champion Saraad: Lets negotiate...

[@sageq45]

@@Gtcarroll96 Actually, that's exactly why TGT wasn't completely garbage. It had the most memorable voice lines among all expansions.

[@like2upload3videos]

@@sageq45 TGT had some of the coolest and most flavorful cards. Awesome voice lines like you said. The theme of the expansion is still one of the best, it's one of the most fun times in hearthstone that i've played, card mechanics during the time were really interesting and different and it was just all around a REALLY fun expansion to say the least.

[@brettpierce5225]

My personal S tier would be: 1. Knights of the Frozen Throne 2. Naxxramus 3. Mean Streets of Gadgetzan

[@Thaumius]

naxx pve was so fun because heroic mode was so hard at the time, some people got stuck on heroic sapphiron for many hours because there was very little healing in the game

[@Lucassa_bbx]

I joined during curse of naxramas than quit for a long time till rumble, i didn’t realize how many sets their have been since than till i saw this video, and put it in perspective of what’s changed. I knew i wasn’t crazy when i told my friend some of these things didn’t exist.

[@whatsupRay]

Boomsday S tier? Rumble A tier? Loe D tier? How much did team give pay you to up the latest expansions 🙄

[@xhantTheFirst]

You misspelled "Your opinion does not match mine, therefore you're wrong. No need to argue more."

[@TheRealGanonKirby]

a fine list that I can agree on most aspects to... but.... how dare you play my boy Reno so dirty and put LoE in D???

[@stepanvecera6793]

I would love Stranglethorn Vale witch Booty Bay, Ashenvale/Moonglade and Vashj'ir theme in the future!

[@thrashes6208]

:( i loved the grand tournament, so many fun decks and that was really the part of my play where i made crazy stupid but very fun decks... The game also lacked a lot of the gards nowadays so you could get away with playing bad but fun decks still... Never play arena though so no idea there

[@RobertStineIsTheBest]

Rise of Shadows > Frozen Throne ? Sir, couldn't disagree more

RoS has a much better balance than FT did.. I agree with kripp 100

Based on the teaser, you might be happy about the next expansion then. :V

[@user-qk1nh8nq6o]

Rank icon tier list would be cool to see

[@virgilthemob1242]

I feel that it's kinda tough to rank the expansions themselves, because what makes of breaks an expansion is the synergy with other standard legal ones. So it would make more sense to rank the metas between the launch of two expansions. You shouldntry that in the future, Kripp.
