Are you saying it does work towards the portrait, or you wish they would? I haven't tested it yetBrawl should count towards wins for golden portrait, arena should too now.
Musta been nice for him. I can't win on Shaman with this Brawl to save my fucking life. I am like 2 for 6. Just highlights how bad Shaman really is. All these fucking Lava Shocks and Ancestral Recalls I keep getting, sigh. Ohhh but I did manage to Ancestral Recall an Ala'Kir on turn 5 and do a 2 for 1 on some 3 mana creatures, woot! Oh wait, no, it wasn't a 2 for 1, because of using Ancestral Recall... And ohhh, I can unlock my mana crystals with Lava Shock , oh but wait, I have to cast Lava Shock first otherwise I won't have enough mana to cast the Lava Shock due to the overloaded mana crystal... Rofl. Piece of shit class. Makes me sad. I crafted Neptulon day 1 of GvG in a vain hope that Shaman would be relevant and decent. I truly love Shaman, and I hate Shaman.Awesome Brawl. I just got hit by a Shaman who played Malygos on turn 9. I had a mind control in hand but no turn 9, immediate, answer so I cleared the rest of his board and hit end turn. I mean what are the chances he would have Lava Burst, Crackle and lightning bolt for exactly 30 points of damage? Turns out it was 100%... Fuck this game...
Yeah, I agree. This is the 2nd best brawl yet. I didn't like it when I saw what it was but I've had some pretty fun games out of it (also a couple of retarded ones that were over by turn 4).I would rank this brawl over the spider one for sure, probably over the banana one because Flamewaker decks just marginalized creativity for that brawl. Even though it's huge RNG and you don't get to see your deck, I get a similar feeling as in arena - have to evaluate what the right card is each turn, whether to trade or hit face, ride your hero power ASAP, etc. Spider was literally auto-pilot - a macro to cast any castable card every turn would have almost the same win rate as the best player in the world.
Exactly. This would be fairly close to arena if sometimes a player wouldn't get 2-3 pertinent legendaries in the first 4-6 turns while the other has a hand full of random garbage. Never seen a arena deck where a person drops Sylvanas, I kill her and then drops Sylvanas #2(killed) followed by Sneed. Yeah, that game sure was close...and fun! At least arena lets you choose between 3 cards 30 times to create something yourself. This is random shit, hope you get something good.I think the problem is that its also the most frustrating brawl so far. Lots of times you never feel like you had a chance in hell.
Pretty much this.I think the problem is that its also the most frustrating brawl so far. Lots of times you never feel like you had a chance in hell.
