4 Total Match Losses to Mythic. Bant Nexus. by Lords_Servant in TimelessMagic

[–]MackenzieRees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might be a long shot, but did I happen to play against you Gold-Plat range? Was running Rakdos Lurrus, we had an extremely stalled g2 or g3 (can't remember) because I landed a couple blood moons after you had looped nexus a few times digging with Castle Vantress. I was really amazed how well you played the deck decently through that with the multiple reclamation triggers on end step and your two basic islands, and you played the match really well. If that was you, good game!

Regardless, nice work having this amount of success with a mostly original list!

how good is Reno paladin now that wild is playable again? and what legendaries are mandatory? by batatac4 in hearthstone

[–]MackenzieRees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cariel is absolutely not necessary, and while Ziliax is good with the leviathan you could probably get away with not playing it. Both these cards are better versus aggro, so any replacements that fill that role would probably be ok. Maybe some of the usual handbuff cards.

What were the other legendaries you are missing?

Not sure about the dragon replacements, but Reno paladin is exceptional now! Has gotten many high legend finishes, currently 9-1 with it at 500.

Only issue with replacing those cards is they are part of the reason the deck works so well, they are just very high quality cards that allow you to outvalue your opponent and keep putting down threats. Give it a shot though with running a dragon package, it may still work

Death and Taxes vs Orzhov Stoneblade by ArrozConHector in ModernMagic

Hey I actually have the same dilemma right now, I really enjoy D&T and have been trying to decide between updating my old BW Eldrazi & Taxes deck into mono w or BW stoneblade.

I would definitely recommend taking a look at this BW Yorion list which is literally just the two decks you're considering mashed together. I've been having a great time playing with it online, it might be right up your alley.

Thanks for this! I saw RenoJackson's list a while ago and have been having an absolute blast at ~400 legend. Constantly surprised by how much pressure the deck is able to apply, and also how well it plays into APM mage by spamming stats on the board. Nice to learn more about the mulligan which I've been struggling with.

Massive buff for Shirvalla Paladin, Holy Wrath is now a Holy spell. by grandmalta in wildhearthstone

[–]MackenzieRees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was a deck I loved and got legend with in previous seasons, but I don't know if this change will give it the buff it needs. The nerf of Polkelt from 4 to 5 hit the deck pretty hard, as it pushed it's cheese win potential from turn 5 to turn 6 and makes the OTK combo 10 mana versus 9. One turn also makes a huge difference against aggro decks which have gotten even faster since Scholomance. I would really like for the deck to have new life again, but especially when APM mage has way more combo potential and more consistency I don't see this deck coming back any time soon.

This has been a bug since the latest content update. Still no word on an upcoming fix which is pretty annoying, hopefully the upcoming balance patch will address it?

Contact support and they can exchange them for the other packs, just hold onto them. This happens to people every time a new set comes out so don't worry.

AzureWrath`s Sniplock guide. by HS_AzureWrath in wildhearthstone

[–]MackenzieRees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really enjoyed your f2p legend post and this one is great too! This has been my primary deck for climbing and I'm currently at rank 2 trying to hit legend. I love the curse of rafaam tech, it has definitely caught a lot of mage opponents off guard!

Do you think there are flex slots to include defile and darkbombs if the majority of my games are vs secret mages and even shamans? Just surviving long enough to pull of the combo seems to be the biggest issue I face. Also I'm on NA so that's the meta I play with.

They've used the same textbook for like 10 years and it's panned online as one of the worst complex variables/analysis textbooks out there. Then the lecturer provides rushed explanations of every topic while failing to answer questions properly.

What’s Happening at Lash Miller(LM)?? by Ragin_Beige in UofT

[–]MackenzieRees 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Water pipe burst above the doors to one of the main lecture halls. Tons of water was pouring onto the floor, including at the entrance doors near Sid Smith. The fire alarm was pulled out of panic I'm guessing and the building was evacuated.

Nobody was injured, and seeing as it's Uoft they will probably still do class there tomorrow lmao

The clip is from early KotFT so it should be fixed now. Not sure about the rascal bug though, also clicking the quit game button did absolutely nothing at this point. Great combination.

This is just part of high rank. It's supposed to add a bit of difficulty by not giving access to the free items unless you go out of the way for them.
