[@TrumpSC]

POLL: Hey guys. Just to gather some data for the upcoming full star review. How many of you really love the full review format (kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnyvZJuHiJuAp6c)? I won't throw KZbin analytics around because I don't want to influence anyone but do you enjoy this format or would a shorter format work better? Like maybe not reviewing the whole set and instead just showcase the outstanding card opinions in something like a Top 10 influential cards of the set video & Top 10 cards other people are wrong about video. We could still provide a link to Trump's research Spreadsheet if you just have to know that that Pumpkin Peasant is a 1 star card. Just like one of my replies to "vote". Also share your thoughts in the comments since we are very interested in those. ~ Jens

[@TrumpSC]

Honestly - I didn't watch much of these. I Just skipped to a few cards I was interested in or turned off after a while.

[@TrumpSC]

I love these. Yes, they are long but I am entertained for most of the time.

[@YouInferiorMeatHole]

I think it's a good novelty tbh

[@xmasbunny132]

It's fun in a time where content is less and less at the end of an expansion

[@gabrielhowell522]

I have no idea what you are saying but Trump is great.

[@DammitSinged]

_At some point it's just gonna be a bunch of Trumps in varying sizes on the screen._

[@luckymango636]

Trump is direfrenzied in this video. There are three versions that keep buffing the card ratings

Where is re-re-re-re-re-re-trump's review basic card?

[@kublaikhan9602]

Sorry Magma Rager. No matter how many times Trump reviews you you'll always be a 1-star card.

[@0Pompeius0]

Ha, you lazy dog! You didnt even write it out, but expect him to go that deep? You fool! :P

3 Mana deal 5, without the condition to have a beast on the board? AND it summons a body on top of that? OPIE OPIE!

[@ciao_shibe1517]

Take a shot every time all 3 Trumps are looking in the same direction

[@KKKuma]

Holy cow, that's insane! Even though they are different, they are all the same! Is this Déjà vu or Inception?

[@Clonekiller66]

I'd probably die before the 15 minute mark

[@ML-mx3mm]

“Druid came all over the place” As a Druid player, this is an accurate representation of the current meta

Never talk to me or my son or my son’s son again

[@admiraltonydawning3847]

But, please, keep reviewing me or my son or my son’s son over and over again.

[@HeckYep]

Hi, person who runs Dire Frenzy here to explain myself. I personally run 1 copy of Dire Frenzy in my Recruit Hunter. It might seem like that would make it worse against aggro but shuffling 3 6/15 Witchwood Grizzlies into your deck wins you the game pretty handily. As well as covering you if you draw poorly and run out of beasts to recruit, buffing a Charged Devilsaur adds cards into the pool for both of the big deathrattles in the deck. Imo it makes the deck a lot better against control as they run tons of removal and Recruit Hunter often runs out of steam after pulling a few beasts.

[@monkeyjoey98]

0/10 didn't put the new witchwood grizzly card art for when the rerereview trump was speaking

[@ramonestefano]

Dire Frenzy is being played in recruit hunter, Trump. When you think the recruiting is over, they slap you with this.

[@furkankacar9421]

ramonestefano really? Never seen that played in any iteration of recruit

[@CaiRobinson]

Good for when you draw your beasts too early

[@inari3217]

i've seen it plenty, they just keep hitting you with bears and dinos until you're dead

[@Mcofell1]

It isn't a high winrate card, but a lot of the non-cube recruit versions include 1-2 copies of Dire Frenzy to hedge against really bad draws. Makes the deck feel better even if the statistics don't support it well.

[@burninghydra7390]

It's more of a egg hunter card instead of the big recruit hunter

[@danielrazo450]

My jaws that masticate. My claws that sustain!

sorry Trump, but I'm holding out for Trump Reviews Trump Reviews Trump Review 'Trump Reviews': The Witchwood

[@SouthernOhioprepping]

Just took a hint from one of your hunter decks from a few months ago, and did a few small additions, and 7 in a row. Good info you have here. Keep up the great work.

9:26 Dire Frenzy is very rarely run in recruit hunter, saw it a few times

[@LordofBroccoli]

[@tub3watcher]

Good review. I liked how he referenced streamers as influencing which decks and cards get played (at least by players laddering.) So true.

[@markuscederberg2081]

trumpception

[@SomersBugtopia]

Wow, these will *never* get old!

[@user-di8yl1oh1h]

great video,I am gonna save it to watch when I need to fall asleep.

[@Slasher9485]

To answer your question about dire frenzy, it's run in big recruit hunter most of the time. Since the biggest beasts you'd want to recruit are charged devilsaur and king krush, you can only get a max of 3 good recruits. Granted that's usually enough to win the game, but against some heavy taunt decks or decks with really good removal, sometimes you need to have some extra oomph to get through a longer game. Dire frenzy does this by giving you more recruit fodder and late game finishers.

[@EEEnthusiast]

3:30 “Druid came all over the place!”. That made me giggle more than I care to admit. Giggidy

[@jokker981]

FINALY! Trump reviews Trump reviews Trump reviews. I'm waiting for this

[@yaboibolas197]

Trump, dire frenzy is also used in quest hunter as well. After you compelete your quest and have dire frenzy in hand you play it on Queen Carnassa to have infinite Raptors with 3, 11/11 Queen Carnassa's with 45+ cards in your deck.

[@ParadigmZwei]

Warrior is one of the three classes gaining the most mech support in The Boomsday Project (it's even getting the new Dr. Boom hero). Zilliax has Rush. Town Crier may finally be a thing.

[@J.Devitt]

You should possibly think of doing a 'trump reviews' for decks but in the arena environment as well, cause it seems certain cards that isn't the best in standard are actually sometimes really good in arena. I know that's a bit harder to do due to the more random nature of arena, but one can still possibly see a pattern of good cards/deck building in arena enough to possibly rate some cards in that respect.

[@ramonestefano]

I wanted this more than ever

[@1n0ver]

Dire Frenzy is actually played in Recruit Hunter to shuffle more beasts for your recruits back in the deck.

[@Ginsenguy]

With each iteration, Trump's hair becomes more stylized. Bravo.

[@jackskxllxngtxn]

considering trump card reviews are some of the most watched hearthstone videos out there.... why not do a re re review lol. I look forward to your card analysis every expansion

[@Pepijnisdebom]

Is trump getting more handsome with each review?

[@flamefusion8963]

No

[@lolosh99]

Yes

[@AngelC.Heaven]

i play Dire frenzy in my quest hunter deck, to dire frenzy the 8 / 8 if it survives 1 turn, or worst case i use it on the little quest minions, gives for quite a good impact tbh

[@theaquaforcegal1067]

Anyone else thinking about a elemental shudderwok when the new set comes out? I might just be crazy but who knows what the future might hold.

[@HeloisGevit]

It's funny while Standard is a control meta, Wild is an aggro meta.

[@ninjaknightslive]

Well done! We enjoyed your video.

[@DingoWing0]

I played 1 dire frenzy in my recruit hunter for a while and it wasn't too bad most of the time. getting it off of witchwood grizzly then cubing and recruiting can get you some big value where aggro has no chance and control matchups struggle quite a bit. I was probably playing recruit hunter wrong instead of focusing on my dinos but it was fun and wasn't terrible.

[@daruffian7811]

Now that odd and even are out in wild we need a new "Trump Reviews".

[@adambutterworth7608]

On the text for Witchwood Piper, why does the word 'cost' have a Capital C? Anybody?

[@darkness6635]

Trump, could we get your tier list? It would be very interesting to look at.

[@destro_ult2605]

Baleful Banker is Core in my quest priest deck. Though it’s mainly the only time I see it in any deck.

[@ottovonbismarck5067]

Never was "T H E M A D M A N" more accurate.

[@LokeSandwall]

I love how every Trump is slightly swaying from side to side when big Trump speaks XD

[@bradyseigfried2395]

can't wait for trump reviews, trump reviews trump reviews trump reviews: the witchwood.

[@SLAYDHUNTR]

can’t wait for the (Trump Reviews)^4

[@cibrinyark339]

In reference to Bonfire Elemental, I play it because I really like Elemental Mage even if it's not strong (yet) lol

[@markmoon06]

Is Glinda really a 1 star card? It's sometimes run in zoo Warlock, so I think it's atleast 3 stars

[@swtorcrafter6114]

23:13 lol that trump in the far back

[@danielblanchard4768]

Wait, I think there's an editing mistake at 37:25, he's talking about Witchwood Grizzly but the picture is of some weird ghost thing...???

[@Chuck4230]

How long can this go on, how long can this go on.....

[@propagandalf5693]

Where can I see your deck tier list?

[@juancuevas1634]

can you do a video explaning tier 1 decks?

[@teamfossil6312]

9:25 Tech card to put beasts in your deck to recruit?

[@nritsch]

Dire Frenzy is used in some recruit hunters to get more beasts to recruit.

[@NLord]

I feel like I've been drinking too much today - there's, like, three Trumps on my screen! >__

[@jrgmen]

I don't even remember seeing Baleful Banker in the first 2 Trump Reviews series wtf

[@prussia9255]

People played dire frenzy because it was a budget option for midrange hunter which is the go to budget deck

[@livedandletdie]

Dire Frenzy is bad, I do agree, but it's fun. Specially if you use it on an awesome Zombeast...

[@HoxhaGene]

3:30 "Druid came over all the place!" 😏

[@markmarkson4455]

We need to review it again

[@matthewlindsley3298]

Did Trump just skip Blackhowl Gunspire or did I just miss it in this video?

[@iandakariann]

Matthew Lindsley he said that he's skipping cards that started a 1 star and ended up a 1 star. So if you don't see the card, he guessed it was bad and it ended up bad.

[@DamienCloud]

2:20 your rating list?Could we get a view on it? :) What's the strongest deck in your opinion?

[@Jose-sl9gh]

Damien Cloud it should be on tempo storm

[@DamienCloud]

is it trump personnal site?

[@MDoorpsy]

Dire Frenzy sees play cause Toast made a fun deck that used it and Emeris, that was surprisingly decent.

[@mver191]

Hey Trump! I didn't knew you were Asian?! I only know you from Twitch! Anyway keep up the good work!

[@marcelluswiggins7202]

For dire frenzy, Dogs playing a sorta meme deck involving it

[@joshuaday9069]

Hair looks a lot better now gj my man

[@onehit8673]

We need this T-T-Trump in Doomsay day.

[@ayeayeron3670]

Gotta love Heal Warlock, went from Rank 16 to 9 undefeated and it doesn't even have any cards from this expansion.

[@feritayranc7826]

3:29 Druid came all over the place! *thinking*

[@Oblic008]

3:28 "DRUID... came all over the place..." Best Trump Quote 2018

[@psyf3rn465]

take a shot every time trump pauses trump pausing trump and their mouths are open

[@TheArmyofWin]

Hey, Jens! 20:20 yes he did kzbin.info/www/bejne/fWm7n4yXhdKor7sh15m40s (Also a note: He didn't remember he ranked Bogshaper and Chief Inspector as 2 post-patch, but forgot to mention they dropped to 1-star here, and ranked Witchwood Piper as both 3 and 4 in the same re-review video. I had to do a double take when listing the ratings for myself)

[@greycryoclasm1350]

It’s called Applebaum-bastic! It’s very fantastic!

[@darraksden1727]

God i love your videos i wish i had your skill. I'm new to hearthstone and not doing bad with deck building and winning games thanks to your guides. However when it comes to arena i get owned. My head just cant get around building a deck not knowing what the next card is. I think 2 wins is the only time i've won out of a fuck ton :( watched other videos but there not as good as how you explain things. Would you consider making a guide like you did with your starter videos. I won 0 games even in qp till i watched them lol !

[@DannyBouges]

also, the image of "3 trumps" from different times, is entitled "yellow menace, in the 4th dimension"

[@vladulenta6525]

"Get'em boys" "seeing triple?"

[@bowlofshades5188]

With Floop (new legendary druid card) Taunt druid will rise once more.

[@Guywith2usernames]

The Advocate floop messes with the oaken package, which is huge for taunt druid since it can't run plague for aggro. Current lists are cutting second witching hour, they don't really need more hadros either. The only time it's really useful is when you're forced to drop a post-geist hadro vs mage or shaman.

[@flamefusion8963]

The Advocate is completely right. It will see tons of play in Togwaggle Druid, Maly Druid, and Big Taunt Druid.

[@Guywith2usernames]

Flame Fusion taunt druid already gets bullied very hard by aggro, losing the oaken package makes the matchup a ton worse lol...

[@flamefusion8963]

Lightning Breath Not really. Because without the need of Witching Hour, you can run Spreading Plague and DK which I think is arguably more important against aggro.

[@lolosh99]

Floop Rising Druid Im a 12 year old (:

[@shawandking]

dire frenzy is in my deck! it's fun. but i also will confess i can't get past level 18 haha.

[@LellsonW]

Make this a daily series

[@Iano51]

Incredible value on this content

[@imnotlying494]

Unlimited content!

[@savvamon]

witching hour is used in Devilsaur druid too and its a deck i see thisjhs play in high legends druid

[@i8dacookies890]

I think Shudderwock should be indirectly nerfed my changing Life Drinker. You would still get tons of body out, but you wouldn’t just win.

[@VividFlash]

John Remmers Just run 3 Mana 2/1 "I cast arcane missiles" instead then

[@Jose-sl9gh]

The annoying part of shudder is how long it takes when it otks. But the card is fine. It is a combo/value/tempo depending in how you use it. And like everything not broken is defeatable, it just preys on reaaally slow decks

[@blacklite911]

Certainly there are a good amount of control decks but in my experience it isn’t as much as Trump makes it out to be. I still run into hella odd rogues, odd paladins, zoo warlocks and egg hunters

[@edmondh9977]

blacklite911 meta got fucked by zoolock basically lol

[@blacklite911]

Edmond H I guess it’s a response to the druids. But I’m running even lock at the moment and I’m feasting off of these zoolocks 2 turns of board clears and they’re RIP

[@PsyrenXY]

I run spellhunter and I love eating zoolock and odd rogue. Odd paladin is a bit harder with divine shields and level up.

[@danielson1722]

3:27 "Druid came all over the place" indeed, we have all been infested

[@lorantkutnyanszky3210]

oh my god THREE Trumps?!??! It's like diddly darn the TRUMPOCALYPSE!!

[@returnosf5043]

The first control meta since the start of the game and also the first meta without brode *laughter echoes in the distance*

[@PTBHPTBH]

"Druid came all over the place" gachiBASS

[@akbmfm]

Let it be known that The Glass Knight has the best summon theme.

[@WhiskeyFiend]

Dire frenzy is played in recruit hunter to put 3 charging 10/10s into the deck too recruit

[@radmilky3386]

30:22 best pause spot

[@spairus4492]

You didn't include Elemental Handmage in your evaluation of Book of Specters!

[@thechief237]

Forgot to take into account that Book of Specters is crucial to making Elemental Mage so strong with Mountain Giant now being elemental.

[@flamefusion8963]

True, it should've been mentioned as a tier 4 deck.

[@stillprophet7529]

Murloc Mage is a thing? What a time to be alive
