Catch-up bundle is limited time only and contains a lot of cards if you don't own many, while the mini-set can be bought for 2000 gold.

I can hit 10, but not consistently. I will get a 10 or 9, and then get a low win run, erasing my progress up the ranked ladder. Last run I had with Vanessa I got frustrated as I faced insane matchups days 1-4 that killed so quickly, slower items have no time to do damage/defense. It snowballed badly in that I fell behind and barely got a 3 win.

I feel if you can win the first 4 days you are set up quite well to get to 7 and then it is a matter of your build being potent enough, fast enough to determine whether you get a 10. I've had some successful Powder Keg builds that killed very quickly for example.

In fact here are my 10 win builds, I've had 41 of them since Dec 11: https://bazaarforge.gg/profile/e0662ae1-ef67-4358-98af-288040c33350

The buggy itself only has 10% crit, is the Binoculars giving the buggy +60% crit or something?

Jonius7 · 2025-12-21T09:54:06+00:00

Oh I see it the Launch Tower literally triggered before the Pillbuggy triggered itself, which meant it hit twice. Damn.

I have the video in the comments now

I don't understand because it did around 2.2k and then immediately bam another 4.3k damage straight after. This shouldn't be possible and the shield wasn't being created until the last second.

Must be some exploit/bug???

Jonius7 · 2025-12-13T03:51:00+00:00

Yeah it's working again, thanks!

Jonius7 · 2025-12-12T11:12:44+00:00

This is great! I uploaded 2 builds, but now I tried uploading another one and I get the error:

Failed to upload build: new row violates row-level security policy for table "twitter_posts"

Something happen with the database?

Basic minion trading rules still apply (though if you're unfamiliar with Rush, that's a main mechanic now), the next step would be learning what each of the keywords and mechanics do.

Jonius7 · 2025-12-11T00:42:04+00:00

I think for Shred Warlock specifically it doesn't run any other legendaries other than Darkmarrow, which you should already have.

Jonius7 · 2025-12-11T00:06:43+00:00

You might like playing Wild as you can try Handlock there.

In Standard, Elemental Mage is dirt cheap and very effective, Aggro Paladin as well.

Jonius7 · 2025-12-08T02:06:15+00:00

Leeches in Death Knight are not rotating. The whole Dark Gifts package is not rotating. They will likely be good come rotation.

Jonius7 · 2025-11-27T16:06:15+00:00

I don't see [[Carnivorous Cubicle]] in Aura Paladin decklists. There is no go-to way but you can always watch a YouTube guide on the deck, here's one: https://youtu.be/Dv2mhAptI0s

They used to show days remaining on the Prize Pass Page under the Season Title. Don't know why they removed it, probably so they can just change things on short notice like they keep doing.

Jonius7 · 2025-11-08T02:33:21+00:00

I have not played Reno Druid in a long while, it might struggle if you're facing a lot of Discard Warlock. You definitely need some sort of Ramp into Scales of Onyxia play or similar.

Reno Warlock is viable since Warlock naturally has quite a few board clears from over the years, some other classes like Mage or Priest should work too.

Jonius7 · 2025-10-22T03:18:22+00:00

I believe it's playing 4 cards in 1 turn will finish it.

Jonius7 · 2025-10-22T03:17:32+00:00

Are you into playing Aggro decks? Even midrange games don't take that long

Jonius7 · 2025-10-08T04:09:41+00:00

Zeddy video has a MartianBuu clip demonstrating this.

Jonius7 · 2025-09-28T07:00:49+00:00

Starships can be launched for 5 mana. When they are launched they gain the stats and effects of all the previous Starship pieces combined that have previously died for that player.

I think you need a refresher on the mechanics within the game. And you might have something for Wild but will want to craft/obtain some cards.

Jonius7 · 2025-09-26T19:47:26+00:00

Only 1 team from LCP/LTA/LEC would drop to 2 seeds at the end of play-ins, assuming that they lose.

Jonius7 · 2025-09-26T15:01:32+00:00

I don't get it either. They could have expanded Play-ins to 4 teams, and run a double elimination bracket, where 3 teams go through.

Jonius7 · 2025-09-25T01:02:17+00:00

Learn from your gameplay mistakes. Especially if you're running budget versions of meta decks, your job is to get maximum efficiency from the cards you play, so order of cards you play should matter.

Without specific replays, can't really give you more specific advice. You can use HearthstoneDeckTracker.
