When rag goes "live insect" but it heals itself

[@randomguy8461]

[@sunkeeperinotarimrinokripp4162]

"poor priest, i don't feel bad for him. He stole my Tirion I'm the victim here" - every paladin player

[@Greyhare974]

Great deck! Used this to climb from rank 15 to 10 in one evening. I don't have Elise yet so I use instead that new Paladin weapon that summons minions after each attack. I find it has pretty good synergy with that other card puts all minions at 3/3 and it counters the Warriors a bit after they complete their quest. This deck has saved hearthstone for me as a control player just as I was about to quit, thanks Trump!

[@erich1380]

am I the only one that hasn't played a jade druid once since the expansion?

[@Luis1597Fatal]

erich casey Thank God

[@gardenrabbit3565]

not one. also on NA server around ranks 5-3 i very seldom see a pirate warrior.

[@QBG]

Only Jade cards I've seen have been in hybrid Jade/Elemental Shaman builds.

[@onlyicedgarrett7791]

On day 1 I ran into a few of them. But I've seen only 1 in the past couple days.

[@CloudianMH]

Jade druid is stronger now than it was based on my research, we won't see it popularised until someone plays it in tournament and wins though.

[@SlackwareNVM]

Hydrologist: 2 mana 2/2 "Draw a Getaway Kodo"

[@scalpingsnake]

I am reallly loving spikeriged steed. Against agro its perfect xD

[@salmon1449]

Nick D two mortal strikes at 6?

[@scalpingsnake]

sometimes but if you actually have a deck then you can stand up against it...

[@ctrlaltwalrus3500]

Nick D oddly specific

[@scalpingsnake]

Nick D yeah that's very specific. decks get countered and at the end of the day I said I like the card not that it's going to be top tier in every deck

[@AlucardSange]

*cought* hex *cough*

[@1Diabolicalgenius]

I feel like paladin cards have the best intros.

[@dhonatabayerl4347]

1DiabolicalGenius I could agree... but Barnabus

[@BlueRiging]

But COME FORTH, COWARD! Is still about the flashiest intro a class legendary has. Sans Jaraxxus.

[@spoogsq836]

white eyes has a sick one too

[@iv4nx3]

u know what, Trump isn't the best player i know, he read the power level of this expansion wrong but he has something that makes him a good streamer and keep me watching his videos, on 20:20 in the video u can see what i'm talking about, he's humble and that's the best part of this channel, cheers...

[@tiamominard9867]

Legends say JayNova is still out there today, trying to justify his golden lakkari sacrifice...

[@elliotboiii]

Golden clutchmother zavas as well. He really believed in quest warlock

[@jayfarrell932]

I love watching trump hopelessly stumbling around in the dark after a new expansion as he watches his predictions crumble around him

[@nonokraan6567]

Jake Verrilli Edgy.

[@ToothlessCat]

I have a fealing that in future Defias Cleaner might actually see some play. Considering Priest quest and Spikeridged Steed.

[@mightybatillo]

Toothless Cat Quest priest is not played very much : (

[@NaudaBase]

Paladin has been my favorite class since Beta, so I'm glad you finally get to it, even more glad that this deck actually looks good! Such a value class, so the Pres... hum I mean, mayor of value town has got to play it right ! Keep up the good work Trump

[@senshox15]

I have murloc quest shaman and rogue quest but my favorite deck is a budget secret mage i built... so weird! The win condition is steal or destroy opponents quest

[@indraompongworks2604]

>That Danganronpa 3 sound at 24:18 Brings me bad memories man

[@SKer-l6c]

These thumbnails have been hilarious Jens thank you

[@MrSmartGuy21]

Jens did you just put a Danganronpa 3 sound effect in my Hearthstone video? I knew I loved this channel for a reason.

[@gabrielserranoguarinos4257]

I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO NOTICE ABOUT THAT, I went to the comment section only for that lol

[@aizeroth8858]

Where?

[@MrSmartGuy21]

24:18

[@6hermosojohnchristian779]

I've been playing Midranged Pally for a while now on ladder. Jackie4chans's list runs lightfused with jungle, darkness and vinecleaver. What i love most about stegadon is that you could give your silver hand recruits poisonous and it deals with the quest rogues 5/5 easily. it also dealt with aggro easily with making them taunt.

[@Axel-ds7oq]

"yo nigga, i've done it" - hydrologist

[@Adoribull1312]

daddy Jens is feeding me the good stuff today

[@ghp0518]

The hydrologist is such a funny card, I think it's supposed to say "Eureka! I've done it!" but it sounds more like "Yo ni**a I've done it!"

[@timeriksson2434]

well you won against the quest-worlock and it was the best match-up for the worlock, however the doomsayer going of was a huge tempo-swing that more often then not, are not going to happen. So I am not ready to give up on the deck jet!

[@Growltank233]

Member playing a Yeti on turn 4? Member playing Cairne on turn 6?

[@pietromasneri2872]

Schlagwerk Funker oh, i member!

[@user-zg3gh8xg9v]

This brings tears in my eyes.

[@user-zg3gh8xg9v]

Well it was either that or stepping on a lego.

[@abilnurgaliyev5537]

Member "V O 7TR ON"?

[@abilnurgaliyev5537]

Member mechs?

[@blakedies]

ANY ADVICE? - Should I spend my dust on a deck now or wait till a more established meta? Keep in mind, pretty much an entirely f2p player.

[@joshualee6536]

I think this deck is more control than midrange. This deck has a lot of endgame but not enough early game: doomsayer, pyromancer, stonehill, acolyte are all early drops but all are slow and seek value later in the game. The fact that the curve is dangerously heavy (5 6 drops in a midrange deck???) makes the deck slower than it actually seems. I think "midrange paladin" is a misnomer and the title should reflect the actual nature of this deck: control.

[@MarioPlinplin]

So I teched in a dirty rat in exchange of a stonehill. The idea is I can counter mage quest and rogue quest. Do you think is worth it?

[@Berethgor]

Even if it is not worth it. It will be fun when it works.

[@juantorres5164]

the thumbnails are top tier stuff

[@TheBreathless24]

An idea for thought. If Spikeridged Steed's text was "Give a minion +2/+6 and Taunt. Summon a Stegodon" would it have better value, worse, or about the same?

[@nonokraan6567]

Alex Val Good question. Probably slightly better.

[@MrGeorgeFlorcus]

Sun Keeper is kinda like a combination of Keeper of Uldamon, Eadric, and Quartermaster all in one. Pretty powerful card when used in the right situation.

[@Ilegalximigr4nt]

Thumbnails are on point as usual

[@Yakchew]

Try a murloc version of midrange pala. It is more consistent for you to do progress into mid ~ late game. Also used 2 stonehill defender because this is one of the best card for paladin (i know it is neutral) since it can discover Wickerflame, the new 6mana taunt legendary, Tirion or Primordial Drake ( can be combo with Equality incase you used your concencration ).

[@SuperSymn]

Funny enough I think he tried something similar yesterday

[@Yakchew]

Did he do well with it? I am currently rank 4 with that deck.

[@SuperSymn]

Yakchew oh I can't remember, wasn't paying too much attention, but I'm sure Jens will upload those matches eventually

[@RicoCox-Based]

I see Paladin, I click.

[@Dadbod007]

The rogue quest shouldn't get its first tick when you play one minion. Should be after you play something that you already played. Also the pally quest at 6 buffs is too much. 5 is more competitive

[@MrTVx99]

Great stuff man, I just finished watching your last vid and you upload another.

[@parkerwicht800]

has anybody even seen a big cluthmother yet the highest ive seen on ladder is a 4/4

[@kingdavey90]

parker wicht , same thought I had watching the discard lock deck

[@blakearius]

gotten to 8/8 highest. average is 4/4

[@crooker23]

parker wicht got a 16/16 against taunt warrior, didn't work out

[@TheChrismasCow]

Well your plantlock is pretty good

[@CommanderBLY77]

Sunkeeper Tarim is really good. Got me out of some really sticky situations tbh.

[@zhen5537]

midrange control paladin is already very popular in china, why is no1 running it in na till now

[@naeviaus]

Considering youre playing Spikeridge Steed, could it be good to hide 2 of the "Buff all minions in hand" guys behind it?

[@narcosman]

rogue quest is only 1 star

[@Z84Zero]

Rem Rem Rogue*

[@ICHBinCOOLERalsJeman]

There for I rate it 1 star

[@LEMURJJP]

Therefore*

[@theparagonal]

This meme is already outdated. Non quest rogue is better.

[@V_Deity]

Rem Rem anime is fucking trash

[@yeremyrus4056]

I did pretty much the same thing, except with handbuff. Works pretty well.

[@andy78226]

I swear the hydrologist says "young nigga" when played

[@artemirrlazaris7406]

Discard lock is great, with tonnes of draw and discard cards. Heavy push. Interesting you never ran, the Stegadon for the silver hands. :( or atleast put an archetype of staged and buffs for a silver hand adapt.

[@Grabbax]

With every expansion A hero rises And a hero falls

[@cubandarknez]

I was watching the vod and just thinking, how is this deck doing so well??? Is it really just variance? Where is the unfairness of the deck?

[@istvanvincze7411]

Is it worth crafting the mage? wich deck are you supposing now to craft from midrange/combo/controll category?

[@oniuserjh]

stonehill is amazing for value in pally..best taunts in the bizz

[@FrostyPumpernickle]

i love the 22:50 string of events lmao

[@Leetunen]

Hearthstone noob here. What addon are you using to see your decklist on the side? And the winrate?

[@AllegoryGar]

thank u for going through the theory crafting and thought process, not many other big hearthstoners do that

[@valueking7263]

Hi Jens, nice editing there

[@latvian14]

not sure if the deck is actually that good if you play against tier 2-3 decks, but it is an interesting idea that should investigated.

[@superkill6267]

These thumbnails are amazing

[@RobinLundqvist]

The uploads! So much value

[@funkyshade]

I'd love to play this deck! Guess I'll better go sell myself on the street because playing this game costs your soul.

[@danil8663]

Why would you run tar creeper over wickerflame burnbristle?

[@CuriousMoth]

That unfortunate unicorn deck at the end XD

[@buffedpebble9365]

I stopped playing Hearthstone for like 5 months but if paladin is a thing again I have to come back.

[@TheJokzer]

Love Trump's No Game No Life shirt

[@520_metal]

Ungoro was such a cool expansion.

[@vHectiKv]

It would be cool if Blizzard would reveal the cards for curious root when the guess is wrong.

[@dieseld7698]

wouldn't the legendary that when you cast a spell upon, it casts the same spell on another 1/1 minion it spawns be good in this deck? Like you almost auto win the game when you cast a spikeridged steed on it.

[@ichmag11]

for 10 mana LUL

[@superlouis3333]

It's too inconsistent if you can only get value by comboing it with Spikeridged Steed.

[@sirgrig7845]

Is trump playing on his smurf account? Or what's up with his in-game name?

[@RfoX98]

i thought his elemental mage was decent too, although missing a bit of a win condition, with some polish it would probably turn out great

[@jamesford5504]

Why are you avoiding making a quest rogue deck trump?

[@inperangua]

How did Trump missed Vorax Stegodon value?

[@smugglet]

Where is the vorax

[@marioalmanza32]

I think Elise Starseeker is Trump's true waifu

[@ToxicallyMasculinelol]

holy shit sunkeeper tarim wreckage

[@edwardzhuang2001]

trump changed his name to "Your Opponent"?

[@TheMiningProbe]

at 22:47 wouldn't it be right to sunkeeper trade

[@OneClickStories]

Did Trump really change his battle tag to Your opponent or that is just some editing magic?

[@ShawnValsean]

Does anyone know if recruit paladin is a thing in wild?

[@skinny0408]

Is Ragnaros lightlord Even necessary for this Deck ?

[@SuaatanaTube]

Kinda sad that Voraxx is not in the deck for turn 10 automatic win. :P

[@jacobray1002]

YOU PUT IN THE WRONG DOOMSAYER!

[@dinez_]

I got 1800 dust, what should I craft??

[@Serjohn]

15:21 oh my god get a room

[@atmaximum]

why isn't he facing off against quest rogue all the time?

[@Acolyte82]

He calls himself your opponent, that`s genious.

[@tricky.14]

Awesome deck man!

[@eNeTic]

22:35 Is it just me or is the Hydrologist saying "Yo niggah, i've done it!" when you play him?!

[@smugglet]

What does @Trump use to show his deck on the side in games

[@StiltonGaming]

hsdecktracker (dot) net is where you'll find it. It's awesome

[@randomsv4071]

Why Trump's name was "your opponent"?

[@BigMuskachini]

Wow this deck actually seems cool for once.

[@d3s3rtray]

Elize is definitely better than Malchezaer. She doesn't dilute the deck's card draw as much so cards can be combo'ed easier. But opening the pack can often be a question of is there enough room to add 5 random cards to the hand? I don't think the pack could be played in a control match up until one side was losing the value can and hence low on cards. The pack is a lifesaver at that point but its still inflexible to use.

[@zockogames]

Would hand paladin work?

[@WiseAlbatross]

sunkeeper tarim beast pally card, so strong

[@E0011]

5:57 Why not Lost > Sunkeeper

[@snoopy1alpha]

Unfortunately there was no Rogue opponent ... I guess all them Rogues are already Legend Kappa

[@andreaslund6845]

Where's Voraxx, the turn 10 dream

[@salviaterra8734]

Skipperino Trumperino: 2:47

[@konradboehm9407]

Unit Lost Just no.

[@kekh3608]

y would u want to skip him?

[@TheLegalCustodian]

Hello everyobody, It's me, Sty. Jeff had ripped a fart, carzy news!

[@Marci568]

Unit Lost hey stylosa

[@bardozan]

Skip the best part?

[@hiimorin3802]

Mr. president, is that shirt from no game no life(anime thing)

[@Phaien]

ivory Knight just bad now? did too many Paladin spells rotate out?

[@Kaeridan]

Spikeridge Steed is pretty ridiculous, ngl.

[@E0011]

What's the hyoe over Hydrologist?To me it looks like hot garbage

[@Ktosiowiak]

Let's see how long usernames can get,I guess they can pretty damn long like really long It's pretty good because you can pretty much pick whichever secret is best in your situation (you choose one of three, and there are 5 in total in standard) without wasting space in your deck for it (so it's like running 32 cards in 30 card deck, those 2 cards being any of 5 available secrets), AND it has ok-ish body that can trade into some 3/2s (or bigger guys if you picked repentance), AND it is a murloc, so you can fit Curator into your deck (and for example stampeding kodo and primordial drake) for draw later in game (and to ensure that your later topdeck won't be 2/2 murloc, but some heavier stuff)

[@jasonyang6150]

o god the feeling is good when u beat aggro hunter

[@jacintojosephdimen3930]

Well guys, we have to accept something dark. Pirate warrior is still a good high ranking deck. Blizzard may have no choice but to rework pirates in general.

[@PunkkRatt]

Build a deck around Swamp king dread

[@sunkeeperinotarimrinokripp4162]

I'm what you need in every Midrange paladin deck. in wild the silver hand meme deck
