One suggestion, if there’s a lethal puzzle, don’t edit in skips. Having the same amount of time to spot lethal is part of the fun. Other than that, this is defile at its best, trying to use it to clear specific minions while keeping your own alive.
Kripp! Just wanted to hopefully comment early here so you'd see this. I just want to say thank you. When I started watching your videos, seven wins in arena was still out of reach for me. Now, I'm getting a 12 win just about every week, even hit the top 100 a few times. I love your dedication to the strategy and focus on how to improve and grind out those wins, and again, just wanted to say thanks.
Nah I am the best designed card! 1 I am totally balanced! 2 I have a lot of upsides! 3 I and tirion are the jackpot from stonehill defender! 4 I will make the oppenent cry and give you the last laugh!
There's this one weapon that most people are unaware of. I think it's called something along the lines of "Skull of the Man'ari". It also pairs well with an even lesser known card called "Voidlord". But if you have the almost invisible "Carnivorous Cube", you have yourself an instant win by turn 6! I'm totally not salty that anyone who owns the Skull only uses it to get out voidlord, when I've been playing a demon deck since the game came out and I can't get a single legendary for the warlock.
As a computer science student who have to write algorithms, Defile constantly make me pick up a piece of paper to understand how it gonna work on a complicated board, just like an algorithm. I would even risk saying that spot the perfect Defile is as good as spot a hidden lethal.
I actually really enjoy defile. I first thought the card was going to be extremely op and it kinda is but it takes some serious skill and calculating to do so I’m ok with it considering not just any noob and use it and win like dragons fury or flamestrike.
There's this one card that no one really pays attention to, really good card as well. It goes by many names. Magma Rager, Frost Rager, and Am'Gam Rager are to name a few of the "alternate personalities" this card has.
Personally, I think defile is overpowered at 2 mana. In arena, warlocks have an incredibly strong hero power, whose chief drawback - life loss - is mitigated heavily by the bevy of recovery cards currently in standard. That would be fine, if you could still punish a warlock for over-tapping via tempo, but the existence of defile at 2 mana really kinks that strategy as well, especially when combined with something like shadow reaver. It reminds me of when shamans had crackling doom, and you could theoretically be punished for either playing too slow or too fast, and baiting was a crapshoot because just how many board clears can one opponent possibly have?
I like the design, making trades and using smaller damage spells to help clear the board is a lot more interactive than something like Dragonfire or flamestrike. I dislike the way it fits into the game, though. Cheap tempo disruption justifies the degeneracy of things like odd paladin. Doomsayer is much better designed in my opinion, because it can be countered. I want to see the extreme ends of aggro and control reduced.
I really think Defile is a bit overpowered. No 2 mana card should have this much clearing potential... Look at Warpath. At least that costs a ton of mana to clear a ton of stuff by casting it multiple times. Defile should cost 3 mana. I know people will disagree but that's what I think...
most of what you said is true but having a conditional board clear for 2 is INSANE and it also punishes normal gameplay in that if you 1 drop 2 drop. . . it will usually be easy to pull off. Although is this meta many creatures have big buts this could be partially due to defile warping the meta. I personally find the card a bit too powerful for a class that already had some of the best removal in the game.
I agree Defile is a fun card to use, it encourages positive gameplay. Sure, it;s still a cunt when someone plays it against you but it's a card that requires thought which is rare these days.
Most of my neighborhood are retired, they sit on the streets with their chairs to Scream from one street to another to supposedly Talk between them. What a shitty street am i livin in? This happens every single day from m to s . Please no coperino pasterino and helperino BibleThump
sander suijkerbuijk they changed the artwork to brown recently so some older videos or videos recoreded earlier will still show the ghostlike grizzly art
I think it's well designed, but I think it's overpowered at 2 mana. I also don't think it's as smart a card as everyone thinks - it's NOT hard to set up defiles.
it's really the only skill-based card in the meta besides that other warlock legendary that I can't quite remember the name of but does literally the same thing as defile. Btw, that wasn't that epic. You hyped it up to be a massive boardclear for lethal, but then it turned out to be a little disappointing. I still wouldn't have gotten it but not as good as I expected.
Emerson L ok, maybe there are some other skill based cards, but I mainly talk about in the meta. I also don’t own lorewalker, so I guess I cannot play a skill-based deck
I swear its not that hard to cast a good defile.. just make sure you at least see 1 2 and 3, if you want your board to survive at least partially, make sure you dont defile too hard lol.. yeah a real puzzle.
Defile is great card design, agreed, but it's way too powerful. It basically destroys every minion based deck, constructed on curve based play, be it aggro, midrange or just a simple deck. It's weak only against quest druid and resurrect priest. Probably should be 4-5 mana, not 2. Lord godgrey is also broken like this. Warlock is too op since cube and guldan (compared to the other classes).
Scenario: An aggro deck has 1, 2, and 3 health on board going into turn 5. They play a 3 mana 3/4, and attack with their other minions, dealing between 6 and 9 damage. They defile their own board for 5 extra damage. That's almost a 2 mana Leeroy/fireball.
I feel like he is never going to get 1million subs. I tend to check the subscrber count every now and then but it does not seem to increase at all. Those trolls do their work right..
You just like it because it's a control card, it doesn't take a lot of skill and it does a lot more than 2 mana should be able to do. Counting takes a lot of skill for a Kindergartener not that much for a grown man. Fun to watch the big plays though.
It's just too powerful, gives you way too many options of clearing the board. I agree that it requires a high amount of skill and intelligence, which is definetely something you want in a card, but when you hit legend, or are at 9+ wins at arena, it just becomes an insanely powerful card, cause everyone can use it. I've spotted the lethal as soon as you topdecked the Crawler, as have many others i assume, you also had another way to get lethal by using the other one too.A 2 mana cost card that gives you complete control of how you want to clear the board, usually resulting in a complete turnaround, while very interesting because of the options it gives you, I definetely think isn't "the best designed card ever".If more cards were using the same design, the game would just turn into smarter/more skilled players zerging dumber/less skilled players, while a match between two skilled players would be an insane shitshow where you'd have the lead bouncing around between them, with them just trying to min-max their cards values, without anything else being able to affect the game (RNG, card draws...)
What makes it shit balance wise? how is it any different than3 mana lightning storm or ramping or anything like that? Nigga just because you can't play around or with it dosent mean its an awfully balanced card.
It's so blatantly broken that the only Warlock decks that don't use it are Zoolocks who use Prince Keleseth that doesn't allow other 2mc cards. Your lightning storms, ramping and all that shit is irrelevant as to why it's just an awful card

Golden comment
Enter the coliseum is the best card
of course! It the best way to make separate lines!
Coliseum Managerino Kripperino old card, bad joke
Enter the Coliseum is basically how Brawl should have been. It's a more balanced non RNG based Brawl card
Brawl should've been unplayable trash?
Is that what i said? No.
Coliseum Managerino Kripperino you are usless. That stupid crusader thought you were nice. He is as pathetic as you are.

What do you get when you cross the Atlantic with the Titanic?
About Half Way
Onelinerino Kripperino that's three lines.
Bombed by the US!
...oh wait you said Titanic... well the japanese war effort was a TITANIC failure!
Billy Hatzi ok
I don't get it. I mean I get the Titanic sinking part but what's the second meaning?
That's not a one liner
Nah I am the best designed card!
1 I am totally balanced!
2 I have a lot of upsides!

4 I will make the oppenent cry and give you the last laugh!

ERROR! ERROR!
Thank you!
Errorino Errorino Kripperino you'd betterbe here every video now :) and there's a major error if kripp ain't playing mechajarraxus
ERROR! I HAVE BEEN HERE I WILL BE HERE ERROR!
I thought Kripp wasn't going to blame bad rng for once in his life but he managed to sneak it in 5 minutes later. Masterful display

I love Rins voice line lol, I never get to use her in arena though, see it more through unstable than anything ironically.
5:47 Kripp communicating with the drake :p
Definately one of my favorite cards in the game, too
Defile is my all time favourite Hearthstone card, it's the reason I started playing Warlock
As a computer science student who have to write algorithms, Defile constantly make me pick up a piece of paper to understand how it gonna work on a complicated board, just like an algorithm.
I would even risk saying that spot the perfect Defile is as good as spot a hidden lethal.
A certain Hearthstone "pro" streamer:
"DEFILE. ONE STAR"
Defile is a good example for all new cards to come blizzard remember the beginnings
Yes, i just love this card already when it was in card review. It is my favourite HS card also.
I actually really enjoy defile. I first thought the card was going to be extremely op and it kinda is but it takes some serious skill and calculating to do so I’m ok with it considering not just any noob and use it and win like dragons fury or flamestrike.
I'm late! I'm late...!
KabalCrystalRunnerino Kripperino So it happened.

There's this one card that no one really pays attention to, really good card as well. It goes by many names. Magma Rager, Frost Rager, and Am'Gam Rager are to name a few of the "alternate personalities" this card has.
Imp master+ healing totem+ master of evolution was the combo in tavern of time arena. I managed to pull it off once.
That was insane
I love defile hopefully warlock gets more cards of that power level this expansion
I will defile this pathetic crusader's soul.... just after i watch this video.
One of the best clips I have ever seen in a while!
Hassan Taqi totally not. Very obvious and common play
....
Gorderino Freemerino first on the scene.
Defile = being able to count to 10 in the correct order.
Day 3
We fear that, in his vegan state, kripp won't last much longer. We must find him soon.
He doesn't lose the chance to cry about the new shaman 2 drop
Wow Kripp so masterful, how did you count it from 1 to 6????
Woof
not even a kripp head in the profile picture. pathetic
*screams of tortured Crusaderino*
*Demonic laugh of Rhasterino*

I tought it was Millhouse.
Defile should be the first card added to standard
1:15 2 mana flame imp.
I wish they put defile into standard
Goblin Chainwhirler is much better.
Totally balanced too, but as you can see, all of his mana is blue.. so he can't play it :)
♥
Where’s my skip
Defile is an extremely 1, 2, high skill, 3, 4 card.
Pouring some salt on my steak.
I cant see the card i am searching but can’t see it
Tapping first would've not hurt) could 've had easier lethal)

i thought it was coldlight oracle...
After nerubian egg.
Can someone explain wy some of the grizzly's are ghostlike and others normal brown?
sander suijkerbuijk they changed the artwork to brown recently so some older videos or videos recoreded earlier will still show the ghostlike grizzly art
Emerson L Thanks! Any idea wy?
sander suijkerbuijk To look more like a beast than a ghost
Fuck that shit defile should have been changed to 3 mana LONG ago lol
Actual vegan maths
Never got off pornhub so fast
1:02
Defile is a great card, aside that it should cost at least 3 mana...
Lorewalker Cho is the best
Ill be sad when this card goes to wild
I prefer skill base cards rather than RNG cards ... thats why i stop playing HS xD
I think it's well designed, but I think it's overpowered at 2 mana. I also don't think it's as smart a card as everyone thinks - it's NOT hard to set up defiles.
everyonegetinhere.com/ how to trigger every hearthstone player's ptsd
Talks about how defile is a high skill card, showcases a video where he needed two defiles to succeed...
Skiperino is LATEEEEE!!!!!
A nice round 1:00
Vreau sa aud când vorbești in romană :)
6:40 Thank me later for saving 6 minutes of your life :)
it's really the only skill-based card in the meta besides that other warlock legendary that I can't quite remember the name of but does literally the same thing as defile.
Btw, that wasn't that epic. You hyped it up to be a massive boardclear for lethal, but then it turned out to be a little disappointing. I still wouldn't have gotten it but not as good as I expected.
FlamingLudroth Ratholes if only the true skill card Lorewalker Cho was in the meta
Emerson L ok, maybe there are some other skill based cards, but I mainly talk about in the meta. I also don’t own lorewalker, so I guess I cannot play a skill-based deck
FlamingLudroth Ratholes hahaha
Make defile standard!
at 2 mana?
I have to disagree. Pre-nerf undertaker was the best designed card ever
Druidodo
I swear its not that hard to cast a good defile.. just make sure you at least see 1 2 and 3, if you want your board to survive at least partially, make sure you dont defile too hard lol.. yeah a real puzzle.
It is all of those things, but it's still too powerful.

it should dmg all chars instead of only the minions :/
Sure, if it cost 6

defile is too strong of a card to be considered the best designed card ever. maybe if hearthstone had more similarly powered board clears.
I feel like he is never going to get 1million subs. I tend to check the subscrber count every now and then but it does not seem to increase at all.

Op pls nerf
1:01 Faster then spkperino :D
That was merely a puzzle, I've seen better ones.
Defile best designed card? The card is insanely powerful and is awful balance-wise smh
What makes it shit balance wise? how is it any different than3 mana lightning storm or ramping or anything like that? Nigga just because you can't play around or with it dosent mean its an awfully balanced card.
It's so blatantly broken that the only Warlock decks that don't use it are Zoolocks who use Prince Keleseth that doesn't allow other 2mc cards. Your lightning storms, ramping and all that shit is irrelevant as to why it's just an awful card
Bullshit is comiiiing!
“High skill” no
Wpwp vegan
Fail Skipperino
Skipp late again
Skill based? You literally just need to count...
No
high skill card lol
Way too cheap on 2 mana tho
