"I will stop at nothing to finally defeat Reynad" - Rarran
"Back in my day Yeti was the best card we had" - Reynoodle
Omg I forgot how much joy I get from Reynad calling exactly the one play that answers him
Raynad is joy to watch
never gets old
I too watched the first 3 minutes of the video.

Shout-out to the tiny spot of sunlight coming through Reynads curtains and hitting him directly between the eyes like a snipers laser sight
"I've got the salt in my sights"
Man, Reynad ranting about the powercreep in Hearthstone has to be the most entertaining thing on the internet.
He's not wrong. The powercreep in hearthstone is making it more and more unfun. Originally, hearthstone struck a nice balance between wacky RNG and skill. Now, the powercreep is such that there's horrid RNG in every game from cards like Rune of the archmage and jackpot. And the decks that don't have horrid RNG have so much mana cheat and/or card generation It's just night and day compared to older hearthstone formats.
That's why whenever you talk to someone that's played hearthstone for a long time about powercreep they'll rant about it. Setting aside all the people coping, of course.
@@nickp8041 Thanks Captn Obvious
@@nickp8041 I've been watching a YuGiOh series from a channel called Cimo called The History of YuGiOh where he does a duel in every single format progressing in time, and it's shocking to me how fast that game went from ultra-slow control to "play 10,000 cards in a turn and win on turn 2". Like, it's crazy how hard Synchro summoning broke that game irreparably. They just wanted a fixed version of Fusion summoning, and they opened the floodgates to basically giving every player 15 extremely powerful cards that always start in their hand.
But, RNG is not the problem in Hearthstone. RNG has always been there, and I would argue it was far, FAR worse in GvG era where your Dr. Boom bombs or your Shredder roll could legitimately win or lose you the game. No, the problem is our Synchro summon -- Rush. That keyword singlehandedly sped the game up, and turned our plodding minions into threats that are also removal spells. Why run Flamestrike when you can just Rush the board down at half the price and get a minion on board too? Now, everything has to compete with Rush being so core to the game, which pushes the power level upwards.
Powercreep is inevitable, as long as new mechanics continue to be added. Whether it's adding broader mechanics that allow more functionality for cards, trying failed archetypes again with a stronger push, giving newer archetypes a power boost so they'll be competitive, or even just trying to push a product, it's practically impossible to maintain a stable power level in an evolving game. The other option is The Grand Tournament or Rastakhan's Rumble (or Mercadian Masques for an MTG example), where trying to pull back on powercreep just results in an undesirable release.
@@nickp8041 I think you're underestimating a bit the number of games that were decided by playing Sylvanas into Ragnaros on an empty board, or playing Arcane Missiles or Mad Bomber into a 3/2. Modern Hearthstone has a lot more RNG in stuff like card generation, but it also has a lot less "If I make this play I have a 35% chance to win."
@@driftwisp2797 Not really. Winning games off rag happened but it was never guaranteed. You know what is guaranteed though? Playing rune of the archmage 4 times and winning off random bullshit after you mana cheat it out for 4 mana.
52 minutes of you two playing made me so happy. I'm currently very ill and this really cheered me up:) Thank you Reynad and Rarran for being amazing.
Get well soon dude!
Every time I watch these videos with reynad, I realize how much I miss him
Amen brother. Can’t wait to play the Bazaar ❤
@@geraldstreloff9409 i hope after that he takes some time off business and maybe chills streaming bazaar or other stuff
Sometimes when I watch Rarran videos it's almost like I can still hear him complaining about card balance. I wish he was still with us. 🙏😔
Those peak hearthstone days were so good
@@geraldstreloff9409 ditooo
The year is 2089, Hearthstone's latest expansion "Return to the origin of the begining of the dawn of Naxxramas 9, vengance of Kel' Thuzad" has released.
Rarran has discovered a chemical compound that prolongs human lives for thousands of years while preserving a youthful look.
Billions praise this man's acomplishment that will surely benefit society greatly.
Reynad however, trembles in fear as he prepared to be farmed for content for 10000 years.
Well hey, at the end of said 10000 years though, he can start growing edgy wings and horns, go shirtless, and whine about "vengeance", so that's fun for him I guess
14:37 That min roll Imp-losion followed by Reynad expounding on his pure seething hatred for the card takes me back to 2016 watching Reynad stream.
Takes me back to GvG. Man did that expansion suck in terms of consistency
I think it's really smart, that Rarran keeps losing intentionally to Reynard, so he will be willing to play more of these challenges versus him.
Reynad: Well, this was a losing matchup for me
Rarran: *Celebrating like he won the championship*
The Ben Brode format allows for only a single emote which is vigorous laughter whenever your opponent fucks up
Also the sorry emote is back.
That or when your opponent gets a low roll like with Implosion in the video
They got rid of sorry?@@Noobie2k7
The synergy between these two is undeniable and fantastic
I love the Rarran celebrating the wins immediately immediately cutting to Reynad saying, "I mean, that matchup was nearly unwinnable for me." It's so funny. On the other hand, grats on the two wins!
gosh i love the Rarran's smack-talk & Reynad's sas
can we make this a weekly thing ?
I do love the contrast between the Rarran and Reynad's very dichotomous personality and tone, it's pretty funny. Rarran's "excitable puppy just craving affection" style and Reynad's "world-weary hippie hermit" style play off each other quite nicely, and I think the chemistry works because of that.
reynad is such a fun guest, that calm, monotone presence is so awesome.
This is the perfect birthday present, thank you Rarnad and Reyran!
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday! :)
Happy birthday! 🎈
loving Rarrans optimism ''I got an 8/8 maybe he'll get scared''
I love how you didn't even acknowledge Reynad missing lethal due to timing out. Honestly way funnier that way
Thanks for the longer video, really appreciate it! I really feel like this video showcased why Reynad was a top (is?) player. The way he almost instantly called what kind of deck Rarran would be playing, what cards he might have and how to play around those and play towards his strengths was really cool to watch. Also interesting to see the different choices made in deckbuilding for the same archetypes of decks, like the Raza and Murloc-Pala.
Reynad and Rarran keeps making the best content together! please keep making more
I completely agree, Grim Patron Warrior was the most fun I've ever had with Hearthstone.
Pretty sure they unnerfed it not too long after this video actually lol
Videos with Reynard,Dexter, Leddy all the guest videos are always so fun rarran. Thanks for the amazing content!
I could watch this ALL day! Fun dynamic between you two and some hilarious moments. Also really fun to see the older or different formats.
I enjoy these videos so much. These two are so fun together. Thanks for the efforts!
Love me some golden age hearthstone with the old legends of the game. Hope to see you guys try some old formats again soon.
Hey Rarran! Don't know if you've been needing to hear this, but your content is amazing. Whenever I think you've ran out of ideas, you just surprise me again, while also doing series like these with Reynad and the other boys, that are simply amazing to watch. This video specifically was GREAT to watch, I thank you for all the nostalgic value this has brought me, and also how bad I miss Reynad and a simpler time in Hearthstone history. Keep going as long as you feel good doing, and when you eventually feel bunrt out, we'll go with you to whatever project comes next. Your personality and creativity is the best thing about this channel, and it will never change. Cheers, friend!!
Perfect timing. Was just looking for something to watch while I do my Html project
Reynad video pog
I am so glad Reynad is back posting on his lil bros channel
rarran thank you so much for your content. you made me coming back to hs after 5years. you're a very humble and entertaining man.
I don’t normally watch 50 minute videos, but damn this was a good one. Love the you and reynad content!
Love the matches against Reynad. The editing is so good on these.
Those videos with Reynad are so good when he starts explaining why something is happening or the history behind a deck, his voice is so good to listen to.
love this! so many cards played that ive never ever seen. really cool
I love your videos with Reynad, thanks for the upload!
Really love these types of videos. The nostalgia is crazy
Seeing a new Rarran-Reynad vid makes me SO happy everytime
Videos with Reynad are so much fun. He is still a really entertaining person and an amazing guest.
These are my favorite videos makes me nostalgic seeing Reynad again on your channel rarran keep it up.
Love the Reynaud content, this was a really cool video and unique idea
Rarran vs Reynad, the top tier content we didn't deserve. Perfect sunday gift
I always love these videos with Raynad, they're very entertaining
damn i cant stop waching these... even tho i left hearthstone because it lost its soul, i always think back to the good times when i woke up out of the coma, and hearthstone helped me recover
GREAT vid bro. even after thousands of hs hours and a recent return to the game i learned something new
Rarran playing shudderwock was beautiful. Banger video as always Rarran!
I love the combination of characteristics from rarran and Reynad
Watching this video a couple months later and realized his patron unerf request came true soon after with warsong commander going back to normal.
Reynad: "Maybe this is not a thing in wild" while talking about secrets
Me: no no no we dont talk about that shit.. even thinking it makes me cry
Mate these collabs are the best I hope they never end! I would love to see some duels in wild with him.
This is one video that's an hour long I will never regret watching, LETS GO
always fun having reynad on the channel
Reynaldo the king! All hail the King!!! Love the editing, love the video! Good job!!!
I love these matches, do more please
Another tough watch with those performances, keep it up king
In half a year: "I challenged Reynad to a Standard best-of-5 match, as Reynad returned to HS"
Bro idk how I missed Reynad while I was into HS but I'm loving the content you put out with him is amazing
Rarran looking for Razza ignores the draw 5 in hand 😂
The Jade Spirit with oaken summons was just calculated bm
Reynad: Let me play my worst deck
Rarran: Let me draw my worst hand
Man it's been quite a while since I've seen an hour long hearthstone video, nice one man
Nothing better than the Rarran Reynad videos can't get enough!
seconded
Man I miss Reynard so much. Always loved his commentary and vibe.
Love seeing these old decks and love Reynad not having changed a bit in years.
Awesome video again! Thank you!
Very good content, especially with Reynoodle. AHH good old times of twitch filled with his and kripp's salt! We need a Rarran in our lifes
I think i would be great if blizzard allowed to play unnerfed/previous version of a card in friendly games
There's the "classic" mode, which kind of does that. Obviously it's not the same but it does exist.
@@MrJsintic Playing for so long with this power level made me hate classic tho, I feel like every card has no value
@@GodOfWar05100 i dunno dude for me it feels like every card matters 10 times more
@@GodOfWar05100 Classic on ladder isn't fun at all, but classic competitively is pretty fun. The idea is that the classic meta is pretty much solved, so both players know each other's exact decklists and gameplan. On top of that, since there's not a lot of randomness in the decks, you can kind of predict how things will play out and plan your turns based on that. I still prefer modern hearthstone because I just play modern hearthstone casually though.
Loved the video didn’t even realize it was almost an hour
Reynad is my hero ngl. Used to watch this dude play herthstone every day. I really do look up the the man super excited about the bazaar
Me love some Reynad.
I stopped playing HS at the same time as Reynad. Well almost. This bring back memories of the old metas
Reynad is on a league of his own, dude always crushes it
Very good content once again! Thanks!
You should make some sort of picking expansions not just in order of release to build deck with.
Really liked this format! Here's an idea (if you have the gold): Draft your decks in arena then play them against each other!
Honestly loving this :D
Rarran saved his HEAT for when he was on vacation 🙏
Always a joy to see reynad back playing hearthstone
A fun extension of this idea would be to just pick 3-5 random sets and make decks using only those cards. What decks could you make with Boomsday, Witchwood, Old gods and Sunken City, for example.
reynad rarran is the best hearthstone entertainment combo. really enjoying those collabs
Ben brodes expansions are really good and this video idea is the bomb
What a beautiful video great idea Rarran love to see Reynoodle
awesome video, Rarran!
Oh this is fantastic. I quit HS literally right after these sets, didn't care for how the game turned after Brode left. I still watch HS YT vids cuz they're entertaining, but this time I legit know all the cards being played which is a treat~ I might actually play HS again if "brode format" was an actual game mode lol
I'll never get tired of this content
Wow I never knew you could click the entrance to the tent to get that snoring sound and I played since launch
Loved this
This was prime hearthstone and a really cool video
Wicked vid guys XD love it
REYNAAAAAAAADDDD! Thank you Rarran
Love it when you and reynad collab this shit's fire
These The Bazaar appetizers are so, so good !
Reynard killing his opponent that just slammed a Ragnaros onto the board in that tournament with killing his own hyena NEVER gets old
Honestly I just like seeing Reynad seeming to have fun
Please, more like this. Super enjoyable, loved every second
Daam. I though Ben Brode Format is when you play a card and start laughing hard.
The slowmo was perfect lol
Love these games!! So fun!
This makes me realize how much fun hs used to be
Coming up "I challenged Reynad to get back into Hearthstone and reach legend with Death Knight", which will be followed by "Challenging Reynad to win Blizzcon"
Always love seeing you and Reynad play together.
Off topic but.. I wanna know how Reynad did his hair.
great video, im missing that u guys not talking after the challenge at the end
