Babbling book is quickly becoming one of my favorite cards. It's just so positive and generous. Practically costs nothing at all at one mana you drop him on the board and that chill ass mofo gives you a spell to use later in the game. And you also get this adorable little 1/1 can ping things but usually is too harmless to be removed. But more than the BB is just so positive. It comes on the board like "do you want to cast a spell?" and I'm like "yeah BB i do want to cast a spell let's do this shit" and when he attacks he's like "SPELLS ARE FUN" and I'm like "yeah they are SO FUN." He doesn't say some bullshit macho shit like "I will destroy you" he's just like "nah spells are fun." And it looks so happy. I mean this is an inanimate object literally brought to life by magic. It understands it's life is a temporary magical gift and the dude is just fucking loving it. I mean look at his face he's just so happy. I am literally never sad when babbling book is on board. IDK if he's gonna make it into the metagame or not but for now he (or she) a pretty chill card
In an alternate universe, some boomer did play Chillwind Yeti in the top 16 and this video ends with CGB renouncing card games altogether to live in a Tibetan monastery
@@mitochondria6247 Considering my salary has been pushed into the negatives by this point, cutting it helps me rack up less debt. Much appreciated, sir.
The fact that he very quickly went "what if we put one specific card in your deck that barnes always pulls" and we don't immediately mention the zancient one.
You are the greatest HS creator and it isn't even close. You made me come back to the game after a 5 year hiatus, you have an amazing mix of funny and interesting content and on top of that you bring in other content creators and allow them to get exposure. I really hope you continue making videos for as long as you are happy with doing it, because seeing one of your new videos sure makes me happy!
13:05 The Classic set also had Gruul, a strictly better Boogiemonster. One more attack and it grows at the same rate automatically. The only "downside" it could theoretically have is that it can be killed with Big Game Hunter before it gets to swing.
17:33 There was a real experiment on the ladder using Cursed Blade. At the height of Pirate Warriors plaguing the meta, Cursed Blade Pirate Warrior emerged to achieve a more consistent early game. I’ve tried Cursed Blade myself; it was okay. Great for early game board control, sometimes even getting upgraded many times until I finished off my opponent using it. But is that enough to offset its drawback? Almost, but not quite. I think regular Pirate Warrior is a bit better against other decks. However, Cursed Blade definitely was played on the ladder.
Yeah honestly the point of the card was just 6 face damage and hope opponent doesn't attack you because they're attacking your minions instead. Sometimes it would clear a minion and rest face and that would be fine for an aggro deck like pirate warrior. Just an abysmal topdeck late though because you play it you're taking 10 to the face from an arcanite reaper in one turn.
First of all, Pirate Warrior didn't take off until Mean Streets which wasn't out yet. Secondly, it was still an unbelievably fringe card in that deck that still got filtered out because if you have this in hand next to literally any other one drop besides Upgrade....you're playing the First Mate or the Buckaneer or whatever instead to pull Patches and snowball the board. Also, the card was really mid on ladder itself especially since MOST games were the mirror where the card is literally unplayable. Tournament where you control the match ups better it would be a stronger card where you play it into like Jade Druid and just run them down.
it's simple, really, I play Barnes, he summons blood of the ancient one, shadowstep, play him again to summon another blood of the ancient one and at the end of my turn, I summon the 🅱ANCIENT ONE 10 out of 10, 30 out of 30 and now I win the game
You could play that combo for literally WEEKS and even if it got you lethal 10% of the time you'd NEVER hear the attack sound of ancient one because the opponent would always concede. I remember watching streamers try this combo and it took someone over a hundred matches before their opponent let it attack. Either it got crowd controlled, removed, or concede.
Everyone remembers Babbling Book winning that game, but everyone conveniently forgets the reason it was even needed was because Amnesiac had literally everything else go his way to put Pavel in that position. Pavel got no luckier than Amnesiac.
when rarran mentioned Boulderfist Ogre I literally stared at the screen for like five seconds until he said The Thing and then I just went "HE SAID THE THING" and I was very happy.
That may have been me 😅 I ran barnes in a high end paladin deck that tried to get to 8 with dragon synergies and then overwelm with dragons and legendaries.
This is easily some of the most entertaining content from card game enthusiasts, great stuff. 22:50 Holy moly lol.... 27:50 that smile to the camera XD 34:35 The Revengeance
Shaman is those weird 5 color piles of good cards. Sometimes, they don't even need a plan, just shear card quality just gets them through, other times it's a broken combo enabled by being in all colors.
Man, I remember the exact moment a buddy of mine quit Hearthstone, and it was because of the card at 12:00 . He was cracking packs while we were talking in Discord, and for the first time EVER he got a legendary! Ever! He'd never opened a legendary before! It was this shitter. I told him that sadly the card was bad and he'd be better off dusting it. He literally just quit on the spot.
Sounds like you made your buddy quit the game, not the card. Come on, his first legendary, and you have to ruin it for him at the exact moment he opens it?
My first legendary was Captain Greenskin. My second legendary was Lorewalker Cho. I dusted Captain Greenskin. My third legendary was another Captain Greenskin.
@@chairwolf5446 I *may* have fucked up on the delivery of the news there, but I was trying to stop him from going out there from throwing games and having a bad time. But yeah, definitely me saying "lol that legendary sucks sorry man" didn't HELP.
I love these videos so much (both yours and CBG's). As somebody who played a TON of Magic and dabbled a fair bit in Hearthstone it's really fun watching the guesses and trying to guess along as well. Gonna be so sad when you finally catch up to current-day HS and MtG and don't have as much content to go back to, but for now this series is gold. ♥ Thanks for the content!
As someone playing both MTG and HS back then - the tentacle set comment is very funny because at the exact same time as whispers of the old gods came out mtg had their own tentacle set with shadows over innistrad and eldritch moon. Some thoughts on the cards from what I remember. Barnes: A common thing in hearthstone that became apparent at this point is a card that is slightly below rate that has a small chance to highroll and win the game is very good. That's barnes. Play like 15 minions, get the one or two best ones and win or get like 5-10 more that have some effect. It was only in later expansions that the dream of only playing barnes and huge minions and removal was figured out and made meta (but we could probably have done it at the time). Flamewreathed faceless/shaman - rarran is talking nonsense. Shaman had two decks based on the busted early start of tunnel trogg totem golem - aggro shaman which used the busted early start to set up burst to kill you dead, and midrange shaman which used the busted early start to win the board and never let it go. Flamewreathed faceless only went in aggro shaman, and was never cut. But at the time of the tournament, Blizzard had nerfed some of the Shaman burst so almost every top player was playing the midrange shaman deck because that still had its whole gameplan. Shaman was so busted it probably saw no play in the tournament, because everyone got to ban one deck from their opponent and it usually went on shaman. Cursed blade: I think a big issue beyond the card itself is that for the low price of 1 more mana you get a weapon that is as good, maybe better in the specific warrior aggro decks that would think about it, that doesn't have the downside. Add in first mate and that's just too many weapons because you can only really play one every few turns to get value from them. It eventually got played in wild once fiery war axe (the better weapon) was nerfed. Mana wyrm: 1 mana 1/3s are kinda tough to kill. If they grow attack they're just really overstatted at this point in hearthstone's history. When aggressive mages were bad they still played wyrm and got carried when they drew it. N'zoth: the thing about n'zoth is that it usually summons a full board of deathrattles. The opponent probably needs a sweeper or they just lose (especially if the deathrattles are taunts). Even if they have the sweeper you still get value off every deathrattle - maybe you summon another board after they already killed everything. The biggest thing holding it back was that the good neutral deathrattles all rotated and we didn't get more until the year afterward. C'thun - was probably tied for second best old god with n'zoth when old gods got released (behind yogg, and I would give the edge to n'zoth) and it got worse with every expansion because of how constrained you are to the specific deck versus y'shaarj and n'zoth getting more tools to make them work. Chillwind yeti: F. Never forgeti.
Bro I love you both rate cards. Its so fun as a player that played both card games and know what the meta is. Please Rarran and cgb never ever stop with this format.
This is maybe Rarran's best series idea and he picked a great guest for the series. I look forward to this series going all the way through the modern sets
the evergreen HS videos for old fans is so legit rarran. never stop. haven't played this game in like 6 years because i don't like what it's become, but i love content about the old game still
N'zoth was the first card I pulled from an old gods pack when it launched, and I still run a consistently updated dragon/n'zoth paladin on my wild ladder climb to this day.
Fun lore missed on the Barnes Y'Sharrj meme. The main deck that utilized this combo was called "fun and interactive Hunter" and it was actually a MENACE on ladder because pulling the combo was a instant win like 90% of the time.
Loving the series. Great banter with CGB. You have to show him the clip of DisguisedToast getting the miracle Yogg-Saron -> mind games -> mechathun -> miras unstable element -> cataclysm.
I can't get enough of these. On both channels. I hope you keep doing it with Runeterra or something else when you run out of sets; you two have good chemistry.
Hey Rarran love your vids!! I've been following you for a long while-super glad you're still doing these crossovers with other card games; I'm mad based toward the MagiTubers & YugiTubers-it's just that heart of the cards love. However I ❤ your content for Hearthstone, some of the best since Kripparrian, Trump, Day9, Firebat, Kibler and Lifecoach. As you can tell I'm pretty fond of this area of hearthstone. Lots to love with year of the Whisper of the Old Gods!! Drake dropped Views this year. K-Dot dropped Untitled. Tzuyu and the Twice gang nearly caused world armageddon with their flag drop by nearly Yogg-Saroning all of East Asia....fun times...Kinda of miss Eloise in the scene, so I'm glad you created a video covering her "disappearance" from the HS scene...Players like you bring such joy to the game, makes me glad to have been part of this gaming community for as long as I was.
I really wish you would add the voice lines to some of the more iconic cards because they often have such a huge impact on why people like/hate certain cards, not to mention quite a few people remember the voice line first when thinking of the card.
This was my era of HS, lot of cards brought back memories. Tempo Mage is still a deck dear to my heart, although I left HS like a year or so later (when even/odd Paladin was nerfed, can't even remember which one I played
Rarran, would you ever consider posting longer versions of these videos with CGB on your second channel? I enjoy your chemistry and based on how long cgbs videos are with you, you could also post an hour+ version. I would totally watch!
Chillwind yeti is midrange card. Issue is - you have C'Tun as Midrage deck strategy and have no slots in deck to put vanilla 4/5 over Azure drake for example.
I remember a trick you could do with questing adventurer was play emperor thaurissand to make your youthful brewmasters cost zero and then you can just keep bouncing them back to your hand.
It would be cool if you showed some reviews from other hearthstone content creators after CGB did his analysis before giving him the final reveal! Maybe ask him if his opinion changes aftwr hearing them, because I would love to see his reaction to some of the hearthtone streamers' ratings of Zerus

Crusader Aura with 2 copies at 4 mana and buffing when attacking: *hello*
Your content with CGB and Voxy is some of my favourite, love to see them.
Chillwind yeti is midrange card. Issue is - you have C'Tun as Midrage deck strategy and have no slots in deck to put vanilla 4/5 over Azure drake for example.
I remember a trick you could do with questing adventurer was play emperor thaurissand to make your youthful brewmasters cost zero and then you can just keep bouncing them back to your hand.
Oh hey, it's CovertGoBlin again.
mesa falcon guy's notepad tech in this is the biggest brain maneuver of all time tbh
nice videos, as someone that played mtg and early hearthstone these are super interesting
CGB, on his headstone: "I know minions aren't spells."
I hope this series of videos never ends
Babe wake up, new Rarran CGB collab just dropped!
It would be cool if you showed some reviews from other hearthstone content creators after CGB did his analysis before giving him the final reveal! Maybe ask him if his opinion changes aftwr hearing them, because I would love to see his reaction to some of the hearthtone streamers' ratings of Zerus
Men, the reading in spanish was awsome... 100/100 for the effort.
Did Rarran ever show CGB Blingtron 3000 for the immediate game loss effect where you get cursed blade and have no way to get rid of it quickly?
8:05 funny how he spotted the latest wild meta tyrant right there
You want to cast a spell? I WANT TO CAST A SPELL.
9:30 yeah, blizzard does too.
22:53 HUHH
I'd love if this series was continued.
love these videos man
Another CGB banger, incredible consistency on recent vids
the energy in this video is top notch
