I'm not joking when I say I would watch an hour long video of why United in Stormwind sucked. I actually started Hearthstone during that expansion so I have a more positive view of it than most it seems, but looking back I can definitely see the problems with stuff like Guff, Demon Seed, Pirate Warrior, etc etc. But yeah, if you ever wanna do a big ol' video on your thoughts about that expansion, I'd be more than interested 😄
It'd have to be balanced out with a great big "now, say something nice" segment, even if it's just acknowledging where there were good ideas with unbalanced execution. There should've been more of those "profession tools" weapons, tradable is great and should be a thing more often, that sorta thing.
I believe that if one day blizz just decided to ban/nerf to the ground every card from year of the gryphon in wild the format would become infinitely times more fun to play
The worst part about objection is that I don't even know how they could nerf it without fundamentally changing the card. It's not like they could nerf the mana cost cause its a secret. Idk they really dropped the ball with Objection and how unfun it is to play against.
I had an idea for a card where you choose one of the "secret" icons surrounding the enemy portrait, and the game gives you a "choose 1 of 3" prompt like with discover. If you pick the right one the secret goes back into their hand (or gets destroyed, whichever feels more balanced in practise). I know there are minions with text to counter secrets but unfortunately Objection triggers first....
"Counter a minion that costs 5 or less" maybe? Still could screw over particular combo pieces like Brann, and hits aggro the same, but means you can still slam a big drop.
I wasn't planning on commenting anything until the end of the video, but I had to pause during the combo from that first deck. That shit was actually bonkers, and so cool that it was born from an autocompleted deck hahahaha
The auto complete button is actually very functional and will usually give you a working deck as long as there is or has been a meta deck utilizing the cards you're completing on. For some reason the "replace" function sucks ass though.
I know this is pointless and my opinion basically doesn’t impact that much but: I really enjoy your content, u actually made a “dead” game entertaining to watch, not only bringing nostalgia and excitement towards the solo adventures that once where “hype”. I would watch basically any other content that u bring to the channel although I don’t really enjoy any other card game. But if u wanna do some kind of variety stream I would happily watch. I’d kind sad if your stopped at all with Hearthstone specially the expansion challenges and the solo adventure. But the most important part, your content is not only related to the game you play but related to the community you’ve built and your personality/ entertainer / streamers skills. Looking forward to the new content and the new “Rarran” era!
If Rarran wants to be varity content creator, wich I support, I recommend of him playing other than pvp card games, or any other competitive game, because competitive games always have a very heated community and usually while they are part of one, they don't wanna see games from other alike competitive games, usually because they see it as an "enemy game" or just aren't interested in it, although when come to collabs it doesn't matter at all because people like collabs, but when isn't the case no one really bothers watching it.
The reason I started watching you is because I have dabbled in a ton of different card games besides hearthstone. Shadowverse, yugioh, pokemon, mtg, LoR, and it was your colabs with other card game players and the "guess how good cards were" that got me hooked. After that I stayed mainly for your entertaining personality
At like 14:30 you were talking about how most people just watch you for hearthstone, but I actually haven't played hearthstone since like the first year it was out. I started watching you because I'm a magic player and I saw your card rating videos in my recommended and liked them, then checked out your videos with Reynad because it was nostalgic for me to see him again after so long, and I just really liked your content even though I don't care about or really know the game. I'd definitely like to watch you play other card games like magic or just random stuff, even your chess games with Voxy were one of the funniest things I've seen in a while
Yo Rarren, unrelated but your channel might get me back into HS. Great videos man, dunnoh if you hear it but good vibes, good guests, good variety, good ideas. Unfortunate tho how high Blizzard makes that Paywall to keep up w/Standard, or I guess it’s buy design.
I found your content from hearthstone, but i stayed for your video style and personality. I would love to see you play other games, your inscryption video is one of my favorites honestly lol
I think a mechanic like ice block is inherently unbalanced and unfun. There are plenty of other cards that keep heros alive 1 turn but they require you use them that turn. Ice block just gives you 1-2 extra turns for extra mana potentially.many turns before
I think a big part of what makes variety streaming difficult is that I need to get what you're doing. Even sth like watching a battlegrounds streamer like dogdog stream TFT is tough. I don't know the rules of the game, it's a lot to take in. I usually watch HS/BGs/Slay The Spire content to turn my brain off, not to constantly look up rule sets for games that I've never played.
Just in case you're looking for input based on some of the things you said in the video, I started watching your content mostly because of the exploratory nature, made up formats, getting other content creators to experience games they don't normally play, or have quit playing and are re-exploring, you trying out other similar but different games, I love all that stuff. I'll probably continue to watch any content you make that covers a game I like. Just my two cents in case feedback helps!
My evolution of HS was: KT priest -> Nzoth belcher Rogue -> freeze everything, give coins, gain armor, loatheb Shudderwock shaman -> Da Undatakah crash the game Paladin -> learn MTG. Shudderwock was one of the best cards ever made as HS was always a background game so 30m+ turn was great to see run in the background.
Hi Rarran, I’m currently travelling/moving overseas. I’ve been away from home for only 4 weeks but I’m feeling home sick. Your videos take me back to home where I’d watch your daily uploads. Thanks for your energy. You help people in so many ways ❤
This card WAS the most hated card in the game, because when it was released literally the only interaction possible against it existant was Dirty Rat, meaning that if you missed the card you by default lost the game. While this card is strong the issue is like always the lack of interaction from player to player in older expansions. Jade Druid became a problem because of this as well.
I feel like Rarran knows what I'm about to say but let's do it anyway. The reason I watch you are 3 and all of them are important. 1- I like your perspective on content, mainly because you bring different stuff and every video you post is a different experience as a whole, that is why I feel that you are struggling because you cannot see more different stuff for us as viewers when hearthstone is the main game you play and I started watching you because of the "heavy eddited" type of content and I feel like you do that REALLY well and should focus more on that side and not that much on the "stream highlight" side. 2- I feel like you bring positive vibes to your videos since you laugh a lot, you try to make jokes and you have your unique quotes. 3- You play a game that I have interest on, you can change games but as long as you are playing stuff that I have interest on I will keep watching.
So many hated cards I think there should be at least 1 per expansion. From what I remember what people thought at the time : -Force of nature -Undertaker -Dr boom / Piloted shredder -Flamewaker -Mysterious challenger -Tunnel trogg -Call of the wild / Flamewreathed faceless -Barnes -Patches / Jade idol -The caverns below -Ultimate infestation -Psychic scream -Shudderwock / Baku -Mecha'thun -Mass hysteria -Archmage vargoth / Wrenchcalibur -Corrupt the waters -Galakrond the tempest -Risky skipper -Altruis the outcast -Every DH card / Kael'thas -Pre nerf Scret passage -Arbor up / Tickatus -Celestial alignment -Mutanus -The demon seed / Mr Smite -Wildheart Guff -Swordfish -Objection! / Sire Denathrius -Frostwyrm's fury -Anub'rekhan / Astalor / Vampiric blood -Disco maul Excluding cards that became toxic outside of their own expansion or only impacted Wild negatively like Malchezaar's imp, Luna's pocket galaxy or Open the waygate. If you ever hate a class, remember there's 15 cards in this list that are druid cards or neutral cards most beneficial to druid decks. And arguably the most annoying cards in this list are all druid. Fucking Wildheart guff, Celestial alignment, UI, Jade idol, Force of nature, Anub'rekhan, all extremely infuriating combo finisher or combo enabler cards from their time. Be better, hate druid. And Objection.
Even as someone who has been out of hearthstone for years, your content is refreshing and interesting, while the game fails to be. I think if you expanded that to other games, it would be super interesting. You have creative and unique ideas, and while that may be hard to translate to variety content initially, I think if you found your footing you would be an exceptional variety content creator. ♥ While it's true your viewership may drop from the hearthstone crowd, you give yourself the opportunity to build a more diverse crowd, and grow outside of the hearthstone community. I will keep watching either way, but you should do what you feel is right, and I am sure you will find support either way.
Hey Rarran, after listening to your plans for content creation in the future I just wanna give some brutal honesty, that says as much about me as a consumer as it does about you as a creator; There have been many content creators in the past that I really liked and watched them specifically over all the other content creators in that particular space - just how I watch you over other Hearthstone content creators, and I assumed that if/when they branched out I would continue to watch them for their unique personalities.... I didn't. I don't know why. Redshell is a great example - by far and away my favourite Overwatch content creator, not to mention the guy hit simultaneous Rank 1 & 2 Support NA whilst going through chemotherapy. But as the game degenerated, his motivation to play dwindled (understandable tbh) and he started to branch out more and more - and I started to watch less and less. I think he's still getting decent viewership (and is thankfully, finally cancer free) and is still the same funny, memey mexican man he always was, but I wouldn't know any more than that. I'm just saying this because I want to be totally honest with you and myself about how things can change when you "go variety". No matter how charismatic you are, you have to be realistic and accept that a large portion of your audience is probably here for "a Hearthstone streamer who happens to be a cool guy" rather than "a cool guy who happens to be a Hearthstone streamer". I really want to be able to say "I would watch you playing anything because you're just so cool" but in reality I'm probably just going to watch a different HS creator, because HS is the game I play and that's the content I'm looking for. Even the guys who make it after the switch from "niche" to "variety" actually experience a _drop_ in viewership before it climbs back up. It's almost like starting again. I'm not saying you can't do it - you've got what it takes - I'm just saying it's like changing careers in your 30s, and when you say goodbye to a lifestyle you often say goodbye to the people that came with it. I think, at least, that if you branched out into other card games I would still follow you, and maybe even decide to pick up whatever game(s) you're playing - but a full departure into variety might be a slow drift apart for us. So if the day ever comes, I just want you to know that you did more for the 2020s era of HS than any other streamer or UA-camr. You have the spark of a true content creator and inspired people to enjoy HS in new ways. If I ever end up drifting away from your content, just know that eventually you will make it whatever you decide to pursue, with old fans or new.
Rarran, I fully support you attempting to become a variety streamer. Do Hearthstone vids when you have a banger of an idea, but I watch you for you. Your banger vids were how I found you, but I specifically don't watch a lot of your videos because I barely care about hearthstone.
Quest rogue got us the Fantastic audio click of kibler angrily going 'i dunno why they're nerfing it, i mean its win rate isn't that bad and oh yeah *it's bullshit* '
Make a 45 minute video on United in Stormwind, including topics like why people quit, what led up to it. Maybe invite some hearthstone creators/developers.
Rarran my favorite videos of yours are when you're doing the play other games with other people type stuff. Like the stuff with Voxy. So far as variety stuff goes.
Jade killed control until they printed Skulking Geist in Frozen Throne so yeah Jade was hated alone for that. As a control player and only playing control I haven´t played much during that time it was awful
13:00 I would like to say as someone who plays fighting games a lot. Id LOVE to watch an idiot play fighting games. But seriously I just love watching people get into fighting games and I think it would be super sick.
Objection is not that bad, but the fact that objection and mage snip doesn’t trigger at the same time is to much, you need to test for both to play one minion
I hope objection gets nerfed to like, "when they play the second minion in a turn", maybe even third minion if you really want to kill it. Mage already had explosive runes for first, was objection really necessary?

I really wanted to say something rude with Ice Block, but then again, the whole mage class is complete degeneracy, as the first game proved. And chat is completely right for the most part. Jades, Guff, Caverns... all disgusting cards. 21:40 Gee, I wonder why Rarran would consider the mage quest being more disgusting than the warlock one, despite everyone and their mother knowing Seeds was absolute aids.
i would say people hate keleseth more than rogue quest. Sure when you face them, quest rogue felt worse. But keleseth on every single class/deck in the game is too much.
15:12 Yeahh Skrillex just dropped Two new Albums, and it sounds like everybody else. If you didn’t tell me, it was him, I couldn’t tell the difference. I think he knows it too - From 200M Views & Countless Remixes to maybe 600k, Idk. More Power to him I Guess 👉
That first deck was insane created your own OTK without realizing it
ah yes apm mage definitely original, seems like someone don't know why apprentice is 4 mana

It would be sick to get an actual historical deep dive into hated hearthstone cards/how it impacted the meta
Yeah I’m disappointed as I thought that’s what this was.
Yeah I love his history of Hearthstone videos
Yeah same, video title didnt really match what I thought it was gonna be
didnt he already do it for most hated card from each expansion?
@@Nightknight1992 he may have. I just think his title for this was misleading as to what the content was.
that first game had me so shocked. I have no idea how you pulled that win out of no where.
autocomplete deck randomly gave him APM mage, that deck was the reason sorcerer's apprentice is 4 mana, it was dominating wild just a year ago.
I'm not joking when I say I would watch an hour long video of why United in Stormwind sucked.

Holy shit how did you kept playing the game? Well at least now it always seems the game is getting better...
It'd have to be balanced out with a great big "now, say something nice" segment, even if it's just acknowledging where there were good ideas with unbalanced execution. There should've been more of those "profession tools" weapons, tradable is great and should be a thing more often, that sorta thing.
I believe that if one day blizz just decided to ban/nerf to the ground every card from year of the gryphon in wild the format would become infinitely times more fun to play
Guff wasn't released in stormwind...
@@Orlando7o but it was in the rotation/year.
You could put Objection and Solid Alibi together and they still don't give the HS community emotions like 4 mana Theotar did.
The worst part about objection is that I don't even know how they could nerf it without fundamentally changing the card. It's not like they could nerf the mana cost cause its a secret. Idk they really dropped the ball with Objection and how unfun it is to play against.
Make you not spend the mana on the minion, same with counterspell
I had an idea for a card where you choose one of the "secret" icons surrounding the enemy portrait, and the game gives you a "choose 1 of 3" prompt like with discover. If you pick the right one the secret goes back into their hand (or gets destroyed, whichever feels more balanced in practise).

"Counter a minion that costs 5 or less" maybe? Still could screw over particular combo pieces like Brann, and hits aggro the same, but means you can still slam a big drop.
Yes that is what a lot of mages do in wild. Usually without waker, but infinite turns instead

Wild mode truly IS wild huh
Omg that mage combo had me rolling
A clip of that first game makes you look like the greatest hearthstone player ever
Hi Rarran,
I’m currently travelling/moving overseas. I’ve been away from home for only 4 weeks but I’m feeling home sick. Your videos take me back to home where I’d watch your daily uploads. Thanks for your energy. You help people in so many ways ❤
that mage pop-off was nuts
Rarren saying "sorry dude" after removing then giving back the statue's teeth was so funny. Idk why
I saw your post about doing different content and that first match was one of the reasons I watch you
A certified rarran banger
This card WAS the most hated card in the game, because when it was released literally the only interaction possible against it existant was Dirty Rat, meaning that if you missed the card you by default lost the game.
While this card is strong the issue is like always the lack of interaction from player to player in older expansions.
Jade Druid became a problem because of this as well.
I feel like Rarran knows what I'm about to say but let's do it anyway.
The reason I watch you are 3 and all of them are important.
1- I like your perspective on content, mainly because you bring different stuff and every video you post is a different experience as a whole, that is why I feel that you are struggling because you cannot see more different stuff for us as viewers when hearthstone is the main game you play and I started watching you because of the "heavy eddited" type of content and I feel like you do that REALLY well and should focus more on that side and not that much on the "stream highlight" side.
2- I feel like you bring positive vibes to your videos since you laugh a lot, you try to make jokes and you have your unique quotes.
3- You play a game that I have interest on, you can change games but as long as you are playing stuff that I have interest on I will keep watching.
So many hated cards I think there should be at least 1 per expansion. From what I remember what people thought at the time :
-Force of nature
-Undertaker
-Dr boom / Piloted shredder
-Flamewaker
-Mysterious challenger
-Tunnel trogg
-Call of the wild / Flamewreathed faceless
-Barnes
-Patches / Jade idol
-The caverns below
-Ultimate infestation
-Psychic scream
-Shudderwock / Baku
-Mecha'thun
-Mass hysteria
-Archmage vargoth / Wrenchcalibur
-Corrupt the waters
-Galakrond the tempest
-Risky skipper
-Altruis the outcast
-Every DH card / Kael'thas
-Pre nerf Scret passage
-Arbor up / Tickatus
-Celestial alignment
-Mutanus
-The demon seed / Mr Smite
-Wildheart Guff
-Swordfish
-Objection! / Sire Denathrius
-Frostwyrm's fury
-Anub'rekhan / Astalor / Vampiric blood
-Disco maul
Excluding cards that became toxic outside of their own expansion or only impacted Wild negatively like Malchezaar's imp, Luna's pocket galaxy or Open the waygate.
If you ever hate a class, remember there's 15 cards in this list that are druid cards or neutral cards most beneficial to druid decks. And arguably the most annoying cards in this list are all druid.

While it's true your viewership may drop from the hearthstone crowd, you give yourself the opportunity to build a more diverse crowd, and grow outside of the hearthstone community.
I will keep watching either way, but you should do what you feel is right, and I am sure you will find support either way.
I watch you because of you, i buy titans expanstion and i start playing HS because of you, i hope its fun and you try MTG Arena :D
Hey Rarran, after listening to your plans for content creation in the future I just wanna give some brutal honesty, that says as much about me as a consumer as it does about you as a creator;
There have been many content creators in the past that I really liked and watched them specifically over all the other content creators in that particular space - just how I watch you over other Hearthstone content creators, and I assumed that if/when they branched out I would continue to watch them for their unique personalities....
I didn't.
I don't know why. Redshell is a great example - by far and away my favourite Overwatch content creator, not to mention the guy hit simultaneous Rank 1 & 2 Support NA whilst going through chemotherapy. But as the game degenerated, his motivation to play dwindled (understandable tbh) and he started to branch out more and more - and I started to watch less and less. I think he's still getting decent viewership (and is thankfully, finally cancer free) and is still the same funny, memey mexican man he always was, but I wouldn't know any more than that.
I'm just saying this because I want to be totally honest with you and myself about how things can change when you "go variety". No matter how charismatic you are, you have to be realistic and accept that a large portion of your audience is probably here for "a Hearthstone streamer who happens to be a cool guy" rather than "a cool guy who happens to be a Hearthstone streamer". I really want to be able to say "I would watch you playing anything because you're just so cool" but in reality I'm probably just going to watch a different HS creator, because HS is the game I play and that's the content I'm looking for. Even the guys who make it after the switch from "niche" to "variety" actually experience a _drop_ in viewership before it climbs back up. It's almost like starting again. I'm not saying you can't do it - you've got what it takes - I'm just saying it's like changing careers in your 30s, and when you say goodbye to a lifestyle you often say goodbye to the people that came with it.
I think, at least, that if you branched out into other card games I would still follow you, and maybe even decide to pick up whatever game(s) you're playing - but a full departure into variety might be a slow drift apart for us.
So if the day ever comes, I just want you to know that you did more for the 2020s era of HS than any other streamer or UA-camr. You have the spark of a true content creator and inspired people to enjoy HS in new ways. If I ever end up drifting away from your content, just know that eventually you will make it whatever you decide to pursue, with old fans or new.
Nice content!
Just wondering why you didnt copy the Flamewaker earlier with the molten spell?
Man that Tempo Mage deck brings me back, love me some Flamewakers
Rarran, I fully support you attempting to become a variety streamer. Do Hearthstone vids when you have a banger of an idea, but I watch you for you. Your banger vids were how I found you, but I specifically don't watch a lot of your videos because I barely care about hearthstone.
Quest rogue got us the Fantastic audio click of kibler angrily going 'i dunno why they're nerfing it, i mean its win rate isn't that bad and oh yeah *it's bullshit* '
I never had a problem with the mage questline, the warlock one was much worse, and I was the menace that played it.
Loved the vid Rarran!!
I've played since classic, and Guff is the only card that made me consider waiting until rotation.
On the topic of variety streaming I think alot of people would be interested in watching you play dark souls or stuff like that
I came back to hearthstone and fell in lov with quest hunter I have no clue what everyone has a problem with from that time.
Make a 45 minute video on United in Stormwind, including topics like why people quit, what led up to it. Maybe invite some hearthstone creators/developers.
Rarran my favorite videos of yours are when you're doing the play other games with other people type stuff. Like the stuff with Voxy. So far as variety stuff goes.
@rarran goated video only hs creator i watch now loved all 27 minutes king
my favorite type of content
The reaction to magnetic objection was something else
You were cooking HARD that first game omg
Thanks for posting!
Love this hollow knight music on this pop off turn
Hollow Knight Hornet's Theme? You sir, have excellent taste!
Honestly, out of left field, watching Rarran play Phoenix Wright or TGAA would be pog
Jade killed control until they printed Skulking Geist in Frozen Throne so yeah Jade was hated alone for that. As a control player and only playing control I haven´t played much during that time it was awful
First deck was a certified Mage Moment™
god I remember when I pulled a golden kingsbane only deck I played forever I played it though all the nerfs and everything
Piloted Shredder was definitely more hated at the time than Ice Block, that card just decided the game when it was played.
"The end is coming!" What everyone dreaded hearing after piloted shredder dies.
I love how most of these people conceded to Rarran
The music at 16:10 sounds so much like banjo kazooie
3:05 same, dude 😂
Rarran always making banger videos. IMO top 1 hearthstone content creator. No homo
Its kinda sad that they did that to shudder.
I acually like that card but the infinite softlock of an oponent is stupid
3:04 i was yelling copy so louuuud
The hollow knight music certainly makes it intense.
United In Stormwind was more hated than Rastakhan's Rumble?
13:00 I would like to say as someone who plays fighting games a lot. Id LOVE to watch an idiot play fighting games. But seriously I just love watching people get into fighting games and I think it would be super sick.
For the Blackrock mountain year, it's gotta be Crackle
If open the waygate is not in your list I'm going to unsubscribe
Im not a combo player normally but man that mage game looked fun (for us)
Objection is not that bad, but the fact that objection and mage snip doesn’t trigger at the same time is to much, you need to test for both to play one minion
It's just hilarious, because that's a whole deck in mtg, where it's just ALL COUNTERS, and he's right is just the most UNFUN thing to play against ;-;
I hope objection gets nerfed to like, "when they play the second minion in a turn", maybe even third minion if you really want to kill it. Mage already had explosive runes for first, was objection really necessary?

i started playing hearthstone during united in stormwind so basically i'm afraid of nothing
1:59 song?
I really wanted to say something rude with Ice Block, but then again, the whole mage class is complete degeneracy, as the first game proved. And chat is completely right for the most part. Jades, Guff, Caverns... all disgusting cards.
21:40 Gee, I wonder why Rarran would consider the mage quest being more disgusting than the warlock one, despite everyone and their mother knowing Seeds was absolute aids.
I really feel like the entire classes of Mage, Warlock and Priest are the answer
You are the only hearthstone creator I watch, I have no interest in hearthstone and I have no clue what is going on most of the time.
Such a good vid
Can someone tell me what's the song that starts at 1:58? I know I've heard it before
its hornets theme from hollow knight
Does anybody know what song is playing at 11:58?
Editor released vid after everyone went to sleep 💀
YOU CUT?! What does objection do to magnetize?!
"This deck is ass!" Then he absolutely ruins this guys life.
i want a 45 min video abt Stormwind
i would say people hate keleseth more than rogue quest. Sure when you face them, quest rogue felt worse. But keleseth on every single class/deck in the game is too much.
undertaker not being nr 1 is a crime
15:12 Yeahh Skrillex just dropped Two new Albums, and it sounds like everybody else. If you didn’t tell me, it was him, I couldn’t tell the difference. I think he knows it too - From 200M Views & Countless Remixes to maybe 600k, Idk. More Power to him I Guess 👉
actually i would love to see you play runeterra
Hell yeah shudderwock 👌🏼👌🏼
I would really enjoy you playing magic and runterra coached by friends or on your own It would be really funny
Wild autocomplete has been broken for more than a year at least
Am I hearing Sky City PvZ2C ost?
im surprised people hated questline warlock over cariel, if i ever face a cariel i just surrender because its so unfun to go against
Am I the only person that just noticed the Mario kart music in the background for rarren’s videos🤣🤣
Shudder was not the most hated card when Witchwood came out, it was Baku...
