TONIGHT... a tale of true terror. This is the story of a young streamer visiting the Opera. See his little smile, full of hopes. He is fearless, ready for anything... or so he thinks. Can our hero brave the three halls of heroic mode, or will he give in to despair?
do we get to eat popcorn.....if its corny can i have a refund....wow this cast has to go through so many revisions....is it not kinda evil that when the main female calls the old man a devil hes actually the devil thats insensitive to those who practice fell arts....ya damn racists
This would definitely make the fight way too easy, but... for flavor reasons, I feel like hitting the Crone with a Water Elemental should be an instakill
Turn 5 lethal with trogs/dust devils and bunch of other overload cards and attack buffs. First attempt, heroic bosses are way too easy in this adventure. In loe almost every single heroic boss caused problems, just remember skelesaurus/murloc with infinite cards/slitherspear
Fading Halo Have you even done the naxx heroics? They were the fucking hardest. They have dropped in difficutly in each adventure. BRM was actually more difficult than loE
"Yeah, we got the super stabilize! Easy game!" *immediately gets Twisting Nethered* If Trump hadn't known about that before hand, that would have been incredible.
Seems to be easier just to kill her before turn 8. I ran a test of her Heroic with a normal Tempo Warrior and was one turn away from winning when she got to turn 8. A few quick substitutions like adding Ancient Shades and removing the endgame like Grom and Varian and Malkarokk and she died pretty easily. That said, Loatheb would also have given me the turn I needed, so I guess he works well too.
Yeah you get a pack but that doesnt really motivate me enough i think you should get golden cards that are not disentchantable because then it would be too good
No, the card back is fine. Why do people need a motivation aka carrot on a stick for playing fucking GAMES! these days? Isn't the fun while playing the whole point you do this stuff? Seriously...
+RunderKeks28 The card back is obscured most of the time in a game because it's either tucked in the little deck slot or stuck in the upper part of the screen for your opponent to look at. I think a better way to reward players would be to give them golden versions of the cards they unlock within the wing (class challenges included). They would work the same way as the Golden Basic cards players get upon leveling up, so you can't disenchant them for easy dust. Not to mention that this would not replace the card back, but be unlocked alongside it, so players could show off their Heroic card back alongside their golden Barnes and wow their opponents when they pull out a golden Moroes that summons golden Stewards for the ultimate gold standard value. This is my idea, anyways, because right now the card back does nothing to motivate me to play Heroic.
You only need abomination for the BBW, he won't attack it. For Julianne you just need a divine spirit+inner fire on a deathlord and she won't attack (the attack needs to be higher than Romulos health). For the Crone inner fire and divine spirit work also. With the right mulligan it's an automatic win basically.
No it gets resummoned in the same place This is why Deathrattle minions that summon minions stop dire wolf and flametounge chains as the summoned minion is in the way and stops the next minion in line from getting the buff
This heroic is so disappointing... Didn't even buff romulo? The fights are barely harder than the normal versions. After how fun first weak was this one let me down bad.
"Haha! easy game!" Crone topdecks Twisting Nether. I'd say that's highlight worthy, maybe for one of those reaction videos. lol Though his actual reaction would probably have been hilarious if Twitch chat hadn't spoiled it. :/
Could you faceless Dorothy and have all minions in between the Dorothy's get both taunt and charge? I mean, the Dorothy on the right would also have taunt though, right?
+NecromanciPottamus on mobile, can't edit. But you'll be pleased to know that your theory was correct. Faceless on Dorothee does indeed provide taunt AND charge to minions between.
NecromanciPottamus Thanks for trying it! Glad to see it works, because that's actually pretty neat! So in that case, both Dorothees have to die for you to lose. Neat!
Trump already has the music off in the game when streaming. The music in the UA-cam videos isn't from the stream, it's added afterwards by Jens. This way, the music doesn't skip when a cut is done (which can be very annoying).
***** There's no need to imagine it, just watch a vod on twitch (or the livestream) and you'll experience it. But yes, it makes sense for the UA-cam videos to have it, but I like that he streams without music, so I can have my own music on.
Random thought after watching that Crone game - If Highmane and its hyenas had charge, how much mana would it have to cost to be balanced? 10 seems excessive, but a 9 mana 6/5 charge deathrattle spawn 2 2/2 chargers seems fairly OP.
Crone and Julianne heroic went down to zoo first try. The wolf took a few tries. I made a paladin deck with lots of strong deathrattles or end-of-turn effects + Barnes. Took a few tries for RNG, but went well.
The Crone easy mode: Dreadsteed, Earie Statue, Void Terror, Brann. Dread Steed as perma taunt, earie statue setup and finally a 31/31 with charge, after your void terror ate both earie statues with brann
Maan. This week's heroic is super easy. The Crone doesn't even differ between normal mode. EDIT: okay, so it differs. Just happened that I didn't notice her playing twisting nether, cause I killed her on my first attempt on turn 7 :)
I mean using any deathrattle or buff deck works better. Trump was running a lot of bad cards that didn't do much and Reno, Deathwing, Rag, Ysera, Onyxia would probably be the only "win harder" legendaries you'd want (Jaraxxus with taunts could be good since you would still get your 6/6 infernals). N'Zoth just trivializes that encounter so much that it is basically cheating since all your minions go back to full health/attack (Sylvanas, Cairne, Belcher, etc.) for 1 mana. Also Buff Pally does basically the same thing as seen in the class "challenge" where you can just beef up a big taunt/windfury and consecrate most of the wolf's board since he doesn't run much over 3 health.
I used zoo with demon wrath with Julianne got lucky and got ahead. For the Crone I also used Zoo mind you in my decks I had wrath guard and void terrors, this one took a couple tries because yes twisting nether is all she has once 8 mana comes (Used mage to test it). Finally Chromaggus works on the Wolf but I got extremely lucky in my second deck revision. I put in deathrattles to clear the board like abomination and unstable ghoul. I also put in blood of the ancient and two faceless, but on turn 4 I had drawn both blood of the ancient and it was hilarious to watch him try to trade with it. 30/30 beats everything!
The Crone fight, priest is ACTUALLY good. No joke. Turn 4 win, double divine spirit inner fire. Since dorothy basically has taunt, the crone attacks her every single turn she's able no matter what her health is, a 40/40 is preeeetty OP. And if you dont get that combo, delay her with loatheb/saboteur and charge Alexstraza. Takes her down to 15, and has charge. Easiest heroic fight ever.
20:10 why not Bow + Quick Shot for the DotC and then Hero Power? You would have had 3 more Damage with the Bow next turn than with your play. Still wouldn't be enough for lethal I know.
I don't know if Trump should've conceded at around 25:30 ...She had to topdeck the twisting nether. Maybe she automatically does, but you can never be Sure...
Sideshow Spellcaster. I didn`t know you couldn`t use it though i can sort of understand why, it would require a lot more programming to make some Hero powers work for the player plus it would make a lot of them way too easy
I think there is a bug in the battle against the Big Bad Wolf - Druid of the Claw is 4/6 if you choose taunt. For example Ancient of War is 1/6 when you choose taunt. I beat him with this little "cheat", turns out 1 mana 4/6 taunt is preeeety good. Also, Abomination is fantastic.
Came so close to one shotting all three heroics this week. Turn 8, my ~26 attack Dorothy hit face for half the Crone's life. Her turn 8 - Twisting Nether. Whaaaaat? There's a clock where she basically just wins if she draws that (unless you're playing something like Ancestral Spirit)? Next game I just pushed damage harder and let Dorothy start hitting face at around ~18-20 attack, easy peasy. Decks: Julianne, Reno+C'Thun control warr; Wolf, infinite Fireball mage (though in that one I won both normal and heroic via N'Zoth, who is stupidly broken in the encounter); Crone, Inner Fire priest.
If you want an easy Crone win, Priest with Inner Fire and Divine Spirit. Just buff Dorthee up to around about 30/30 to 40/40 and just go face with her for two turns. As long as you draw decently you can get that combo off before turn 8 and the board nuke.
TheRealPentigan I said I used that. XD First game I wanted to get her even bigger - exactly half the Crone's remaining health - and had no idea that I'd just get nuked on turn 8. Second game I went off earlier and had a cakewalk.
***** 0 mana 4/4 and 5/5 charges? What cards are those? As for Flamewreathed Faceless - usually groovy, but if you're toteming every turn you won't get your first one until turn 6. >.
***** Haha, so basically you *didn't* waste 2 mana a turn on toteming (it's *not* overpowered at all to get a 0/2 taunt for 2 each turn in this encounter, given that you can get a 0//2 into 4/4 taunt for 2 or a 0/2 into 2/1 taunt for 1), which was what I was objecting to in the first place. No dramas with shaman decks as a whole doing well on this encounter, which you did.
Sideshow Spelleater just outright doesn't execute it's effect in Adventures, specifically to avoid players just winning early by using it to copy an OP hero power.
+Rock Golem they should've just been more clever with the word play of the boss hero powers instead of outright preventing it. Thaurissan:(Deal 30 damage to the Player) Crone:(Deal 100 damage to anything on the players side) Etc. etc.
Dreadsteed makes the crone less than a joke. Divine spirit + inner fire makes crone also a joke. Silencing Romulo and setting his attack to one makes Julianne a joke. Big Bad Wolf has so many combos that can destroy it that it's just picking your favorite kind. A fun set of bosses, just very simple to exploit.
I just did the big bad wolf with the ancient one. Luckily I also got both blood of the ancient ones in mulligan, so it was an easy 1st try win on turn 4. :D
Omg, there's a restart button now?!? How easy does that make encounters that get destroyed by ideal starting hands! Can pretty much restart BBW until you get N'Zoth + good cards, then go to town. Bonus points if you're playing the Brewmasters for extra N'Zoth mayhem.
I completed both Julianne and BBwolf the first try using zoo n ramp druid. It's already my 4th attempt for Crone but i can't seem to get as lucky as Trump :(
TONIGHT... a tale of true terror.
This is the story of a young streamer visiting the Opera. See his little smile, full of hopes. He is fearless, ready for anything... or so he thinks.
Can our hero brave the three halls of heroic mode, or will he give in to despair?
this fills you with determination.
do we get to eat popcorn.....if its corny can i have a refund....wow this cast has to go through so many revisions....is it not kinda evil that when the main female calls the old man a devil hes actually the devil thats insensitive to those who practice fell arts....ya damn racists
My name is Rick Harrison...
Super duper highschool despair
+Ashraf Essa ...and this is...
"Haha! easy game!"
*Twisting Nether*
.........
feelspriestman.jpg
17:07 priceless
I was so salty the first time that happened. It was like a giant middle finger from Blizzard.
What if you let Dorothy die and keep an animated armor on the field?
how? you need to have piloted sky golem then that gotta drop animated armor, chances? (u will only take 1)
ka sonn Tang - You just have to give it ancestral spirit, you silly goose Kappa
This would definitely make the fight way too easy, but... for flavor reasons, I feel like hitting the Crone with a Water Elemental should be an instakill
use dreadsteads against the crone. a taunt that never dies ahahaha
Or board clear
until turn 8
Use Shaman against The Crone.
There's no turn 8 clock when Ancestral Spirit is in play.
FuiBanContaFake please tell me how you are going to have both a warlock and a shaman card at once?
shocker4510 Who said about playing warlock cards, LoL? All that matters is Ancestral Spirit (Shaman Card). Play Shaman, is a free win.
Two words to the crone: inner fire
Well... divine spirit also can help.
It didn't save me on turn 8.
Turns out, the Crone is packing TWISTING NETHER.
I just did it with zoo. I didn't even know she has twisting nether. :D
Turn 5 lethal with trogs/dust devils and bunch of other overload cards and attack buffs. First attempt, heroic bosses are way too easy in this adventure. In loe almost every single heroic boss caused problems, just remember skelesaurus/murloc with infinite cards/slitherspear
Fading Halo Have you even done the naxx heroics? They were the fucking hardest. They have dropped in difficutly in each adventure. BRM was actually more difficult than loE
"Yeah, we got the super stabilize! Easy game!"
*immediately gets Twisting Nethered*
If Trump hadn't known about that before hand, that would have been incredible.
Would not mage with counterspell stop the silly turn 8 twisting?
Yes. Loatheb can also buy you 1 turn
Why bother play priest with divine spirit inner fire and kill her long before 8 ;)
I played Shaman with Ancestral Spirit on Dorothy
I tried that... it seems like she has infinite twisting nethers....
Seems to be easier just to kill her before turn 8. I ran a test of her Heroic with a normal Tempo Warrior and was one turn away from winning when she got to turn 8. A few quick substitutions like adding Ancient Shades and removing the endgame like Grom and Varian and Malkarokk and she died pretty easily. That said, Loatheb would also have given me the turn I needed, so I guess he works well too.
my favorite part about this game is that the dire wolf's death noise sounds like a flute voice crack
LOL i laughed so hard when the boss BM'ed trump xD
Good to see they have some interesting berserk enrage mechanics in here also...that witch one was a good laugh when not expecting it.
Explosive trap when The Crone never goes face? Solid.
5:31
you triggered my PTSD with that undertaker
Why do you not get any rewards for doing heroic mode? I mean golden versions of the cards from normal mode would be pretty neat.
You get a cardback if you beat all the heroic bosses.
Yeah you get a pack but that doesnt really motivate me enough i think you should get golden cards that are not disentchantable because then it would be too good
No, the card back is fine. Why do people need a motivation aka carrot on a stick for playing fucking GAMES! these days? Isn't the fun while playing the whole point you do this stuff? Seriously...
that why so many play people wolrd of warcraft
+RunderKeks28 The card back is obscured most of the time in a game because it's either tucked in the little deck slot or stuck in the upper part of the screen for your opponent to look at. I think a better way to reward players would be to give them golden versions of the cards they unlock within the wing (class challenges included). They would work the same way as the Golden Basic cards players get upon leveling up, so you can't disenchant them for easy dust. Not to mention that this would not replace the card back, but be unlocked alongside it, so players could show off their Heroic card back alongside their golden Barnes and wow their opponents when they pull out a golden Moroes that summons golden Stewards for the ultimate gold standard value. This is my idea, anyways, because right now the card back does nothing to motivate me to play Heroic.
21:50 As he changes his deck, I see the Sideshow Spelleater and wonder, if it would work. I guess Blizz did think about that?
Last time I was this early, heroic mode was difficult!
Implying Hearthstone didn't suck yet.
I almost get vietnam flashbacks looking at the Romeo and Julia fight.
So much pain from the pre-nerf Karazhan fight in WoW
You only need abomination for the BBW, he won't attack it.
For Julianne you just need a divine spirit+inner fire on a deathlord and she won't attack (the attack needs to be higher than Romulos health).
For the Crone inner fire and divine spirit work also.
With the right mulligan it's an automatic win basically.
Lucky witch, always topdecking twisted nether :/
I think she's cheating
REALLY???
Do you always have to ad a Kappa after an ironic sentence? (sorry4badenglish)
+SleightCreative Disguised Toast did a video on it and she always draws a twisting nether after turn 7, so yes she is cheating.
When he first "scouted" the witch I was cackling madly when he didn't get to turn 8 :P
Dreadsteed vs Crone
Infinite dreadsteed chargers kill everything no need for taunts
Plus you buff your councilman and flesh eating ghoul super fast
pretty good idea. I chose priest and smacked the witch with a 40/40 Dorothy.
+Eintopf Mitschinken Swole Dorothy.
I just played shaman and resummoned her with ancestral spirit
Don't the Dreadsteed get summoned on the right side though?
No it gets resummoned in the same place
This is why Deathrattle minions that summon minions stop dire wolf and flametounge chains as the summoned minion is in the way and stops the next minion in line from getting the buff
7:10 Editing God, that was very satisfying Mmm
This heroic is so disappointing... Didn't even buff romulo? The fights are barely harder than the normal versions. After how fun first weak was this one let me down bad.
Ironically I had a harder time this week than week 1 heroics. Romulo was
getting buffed hardcore, I ended up winning through fatigue
All heroics are easy. I beat all of the first week on my first try
What decks did you use? I assume Tempo/Control.
I used control warrior
Well if turning a 4 mana hero power into a 0 mana one isn't a buff idk what is. The big bad wolf was a piece of cake tho.
"Haha! easy game!"
Crone topdecks Twisting Nether.
I'd say that's highlight worthy, maybe for one of those reaction videos. lol
Though his actual reaction would probably have been hilarious if Twitch chat hadn't spoiled it. :/
crone always topdecks twisting nether on turn 8
Wait Huffer's from Westfall? What the hell was Rexxar doing in Westfall?
It's a reference to the Wizard of Oz.
Explosive Trap vs The Crone... He even removed Freezing Traps but left the Explosive...
These were so ridiculously easy...I miss Blackrock, Naxx - the big guns of boss fights!
yes the old days
The first wing was pretty great. Maybe the next one will be as good.
Yup
The first wing i bet the chess second try tho
Ez
17:20 Ultimate Despair.
2:56 Congratulations, you played yourself.
"do you always get huffer in this?"
no, you just always get huffer
Could you faceless Dorothy and have all minions in between the Dorothy's get both taunt and charge?
I mean, the Dorothy on the right would also have taunt though, right?
I'm going to go try this out. I'll let you know.
+NecromanciPottamus on mobile, can't edit. But you'll be pleased to know that your theory was correct. Faceless on Dorothee does indeed provide taunt AND charge to minions between.
+NecromanciPottamus Dorothee works how she's supposed to? O.o
+Random Guy yep, works exactly the same as the original. I thought that was pretty interesting.
NecromanciPottamus
Thanks for trying it! Glad to see it works, because that's actually pretty neat! So in that case, both Dorothees have to die for you to lose. Neat!
So what is that blurry 4 mana card in trumps first hunter deck at 14:36, I really like playing midrange hunter and i want to know
Dorothee
Played simple zoo against Heroic Crone, first try and never saw twisting nether. It's a nice surprise though.
Trump can you turn the game music off when you're making a video?
No
Trump can you keep the game music on when you're making a video?
he's streaming
Trump already has the music off in the game when streaming. The music in the UA-cam videos isn't from the stream, it's added afterwards by Jens.
This way, the music doesn't skip when a cut is done (which can be very annoying).
***** There's no need to imagine it, just watch a vod on twitch (or the livestream) and you'll experience it.
But yes, it makes sense for the UA-cam videos to have it, but I like that he streams without music, so I can have my own music on.
Random thought after watching that Crone game - If Highmane and its hyenas had charge, how much mana would it have to cost to be balanced? 10 seems excessive, but a 9 mana 6/5 charge deathrattle spawn 2 2/2 chargers seems fairly OP.
Crone and Julianne heroic went down to zoo first try. The wolf took a few tries. I made a paladin deck with lots of strong deathrattles or end-of-turn effects + Barnes. Took a few tries for RNG, but went well.
Does anyone know what happens when you play Sideshow Spelleater against the Crone? Do you actually get her insane hero power?
No
30:03 Huffer got a bit overexcited, it would seem
The Crone easy mode: Dreadsteed, Earie Statue, Void Terror, Brann.
Dread Steed as perma taunt, earie statue setup and finally a 31/31 with charge, after your void terror ate both earie statues with brann
Wait does "copy your opponent hero's power" work?
No
It can only copy basic hero power (not sure about basic hero power that have been buffed).
Yes, you can copy your opponents hero power after he played Justicar
check this week's tavernbrawl, you can copy the priest's upgraded hero power, but you cannot copy the AI heropowers
It also works on buffed hero powers :)
I also feel like The Crone having Twisting Nether is a bit OP, maybe it should be replaced for the future.
Maan. This week's heroic is super easy. The Crone doesn't even differ between normal mode. EDIT: okay, so it differs. Just happened that I didn't notice her playing twisting nether, cause I killed her on my first attempt on turn 7 :)
*looks at video for tips on beating heroic bosses* *sees 48k dust deck* NOPENOPENOPENOPENOPENOPENOPENOPE
I mean using any deathrattle or buff deck works better. Trump was running a lot of bad cards that didn't do much and Reno, Deathwing, Rag, Ysera, Onyxia would probably be the only "win harder" legendaries you'd want (Jaraxxus with taunts could be good since you would still get your 6/6 infernals).
N'Zoth just trivializes that encounter so much that it is basically cheating since all your minions go back to full health/attack (Sylvanas, Cairne, Belcher, etc.) for 1 mana.
Also Buff Pally does basically the same thing as seen in the class "challenge" where you can just beef up a big taunt/windfury and consecrate most of the wolf's board since he doesn't run much over 3 health.
17:03 "Got the superstabilize" xD
is twisting nether guaranteed on turn 8? If not, then turn 7 concede was not necessary?
it is
Kysta 101 well I found out that it sometimes skips but it is guaranteed at 9 if it does skip it.
It never skips, the only time it doesn't play twisting nether on 8 is when it can't because of loatheb or some similar effect.
EyeronOre Hmm yeah it sometimes skips :D like 1/10 I know it cause it happened to me without spell damage cost increasing effects in play.
By the way, no one else that I've seen has commented on this: Why change the name of this series away from "One Man Raid"? I really liked that title.
Well, it's hardly a raid if you're attending a party!
The Witch always draws Twisting Nether on turn 8?
I used zoo with demon wrath with Julianne got lucky and got ahead. For the Crone I also used Zoo mind you in my decks I had wrath guard and void terrors, this one took a couple tries because yes twisting nether is all she has once 8 mana comes (Used mage to test it).
Finally Chromaggus works on the Wolf but I got extremely lucky in my second deck revision. I put in deathrattles to clear the board like abomination and unstable ghoul. I also put in blood of the ancient and two faceless, but on turn 4 I had drawn both blood of the ancient and it was hilarious to watch him try to trade with it. 30/30 beats everything!
I'm going to try a shadowdancer-saboteur-brann deck against the crone.
I'm just gonna guess here. Kripp beat HC Crone on the first go? He always does that for some reason.
wait i didnt get turn 8 twisting nethered is that meant to happen?
I went through each of these bosses 1 attempt , their decks . What, difficult?
This is heroic
This adventure, so far, has been retardedly easy on normal and heroic alike.
11:43 was i the only one thinking: BECOME COPY OF THE IMMUNE GUY THINGY!!!
I miss the tough heroics stretching over multiple episodes
I was just sitting here in anticipation of turn 8 twisting nether
What would happen if you had Bolf or Malganus? Would she tornado Malg.?
17:00 LOOOOOOOOOL that witch doe
The Crone fight, priest is ACTUALLY good. No joke. Turn 4 win, double divine spirit inner fire. Since dorothy basically has taunt, the crone attacks her every single turn she's able no matter what her health is, a 40/40 is preeeetty OP. And if you dont get that combo, delay her with loatheb/saboteur and charge Alexstraza. Takes her down to 15, and has charge. Easiest heroic fight ever.
So can you not silence Romulo?
20:10 why not Bow + Quick Shot for the DotC and then Hero Power? You would have had 3 more Damage with the Bow next turn than with your play. Still wouldn't be enough for lethal I know.
Does sideshow spellcaster work in this adventure?
For the 8th time no
I don't know if Trump should've conceded at around 25:30 ...She had to topdeck the twisting nether. Maybe she automatically does, but you can never be Sure...
Oh Huffer, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore...
anyone know how to setting the game so i can see my card deck like that on the left side of the screen? newbie here haha
16:49 multiple huffer summon noices? :D
Try using the minion that copies opponents hero power then kill Dorothy on ur turn
You can't use that card in solo adventures
+he already won
sideshow only steals the 9 hero powers and their upgrades. You can't steal adventure hero powers
Sideshow Spellcaster. I didn`t know you couldn`t use it though i can sort of understand why, it would require a lot more programming to make some Hero powers work for the player plus it would make a lot of them way too easy
Sideshow Spelleater, actually. And it did work on the stormwind brawl, also it works on shadowform priest's hero powers and Jaraxxus hero power.
The Crone put up a valiant fight, but I guess there was just ABSOLUTELY no way she could've won.
I think there is a bug in the battle against the Big Bad Wolf - Druid of the Claw is 4/6 if you choose taunt. For example Ancient of War is 1/6 when you choose taunt. I beat him with this little "cheat", turns out 1 mana 4/6 taunt is preeeety good. Also, Abomination is fantastic.
That's because druid of the claw transforms into a 4/6 with taunt, Ancient of war gains 5 health and taunt, if that makes sense
can someone tell me why all his mana cost in only just 1 in battle against big bad wolf
Ben Brode is very sad that you didn't play silence priest against the wolf.
Too bad mage doesn't have eye for an eye for the witch.
Came so close to one shotting all three heroics this week. Turn 8, my ~26 attack Dorothy hit face for half the Crone's life. Her turn 8 - Twisting Nether. Whaaaaat? There's a clock where she basically just wins if she draws that (unless you're playing something like Ancestral Spirit)?
Next game I just pushed damage harder and let Dorothy start hitting face at around ~18-20 attack, easy peasy.
Decks: Julianne, Reno+C'Thun control warr; Wolf, infinite Fireball mage (though in that one I won both normal and heroic via N'Zoth, who is stupidly broken in the encounter); Crone, Inner Fire priest.
If you want an easy Crone win, Priest with Inner Fire and Divine Spirit. Just buff Dorthee up to around about 30/30 to 40/40 and just go face with her for two turns. As long as you draw decently you can get that combo off before turn 8 and the board nuke.
TheRealPentigan I said I used that. XD First game I wanted to get her even bigger - exactly half the Crone's remaining health - and had no idea that I'd just get nuked on turn 8. Second game I went off earlier and had a cakewalk.
***** Really? On heroic? Wasting 2 mana a turn on taunt totems doesn't seem like a viable way to do ~65 damage by turn 8. >.
***** 0 mana 4/4 and 5/5 charges? What cards are those?
As for Flamewreathed Faceless - usually groovy, but if you're toteming every turn you won't get your first one until turn 6. >.
***** Haha, so basically you *didn't* waste 2 mana a turn on toteming (it's *not* overpowered at all to get a 0/2 taunt for 2 each turn in this encounter, given that you can get a 0//2 into 4/4 taunt for 2 or a 0/2 into 2/1 taunt for 1), which was what I was objecting to in the first place.
No dramas with shaman decks as a whole doing well on this encounter, which you did.
It just occurred to me, wouldn't purge be great for the BBW fight?
Why don't you play OTK priest against the witch?
What happens if you silence Romulo
At some point, someone is going to upload video of Sneed's being Twisting Nethered into Bolf.
Can you just use Sideshow Spelleater and SW: Pain on Dorothy to win by turn eight against The Crone?
Sideshow spelleater doesn't work in adventures. It would be too op otherwise. The battlecry does nothing.
Sideshow Spelleater just outright doesn't execute it's effect in Adventures, specifically to avoid players just winning early by using it to copy an OP hero power.
Sideshow Spelleater doesn't work on adventure bosses for this exact reason. twitter.com/CM_Whirthun/status/633299333593456640
+Rock Golem they should've just been more clever with the word play of the boss hero powers instead of outright preventing it.
Thaurissan:(Deal 30 damage to the Player)
Crone:(Deal 100 damage to anything on the players side)
Etc. etc.
I never had twisting nether at the croone heroic...
16:56 perhaps my favorite trump moment ever
is it me or is it when trip drops a beast card without charge but it can be used in that turn
minions to the left of dorothee get charge
+in59teNRG Oh thanks
What if you silence Romulo?
Dreadsteed makes the crone less than a joke. Divine spirit + inner fire makes crone also a joke. Silencing Romulo and setting his attack to one makes Julianne a joke. Big Bad Wolf has so many combos that can destroy it that it's just picking your favorite kind.
A fun set of bosses, just very simple to exploit.

real voice: Thrall Versus...The Crone
how i head it: Thrall Versus...Uhh Thrall!!
I just did the big bad wolf with the ancient one.
Luckily I also got both blood of the ancient ones in mulligan, so it was an easy 1st try win on turn 4. :D
Shout out to Twitch chat for ruining the surprise.
Trump, if you're going to use the same deck with no new changes, you can always press the restart button instead of concede. :)
Can't you use dreadsteed to get infinite taunts against the crone?
+Steven James Makes sense. Thanks!
Well not really. It's like by turn 4 none of her minions can trade with your minions and u just go face. Brilliant idea.
Just run buff/heal priest and 10/10 dorothy from turn one f*cks the crone over completely.
Would be cool if there was a card that could only be played with a certain number of overloaded crystals.
Priest deck for crone ... 2x double Hp, 2x inner fire... Auto fill... Worked 1st time 4rth round win for me :D
Omg, there's a restart button now?!? How easy does that make encounters that get destroyed by ideal starting hands!
Can pretty much restart BBW until you get N'Zoth + good cards, then go to town. Bonus points if you're playing the Brewmasters for extra N'Zoth mayhem.
You could technically restart until you got a good hand anyway... Just took a bit longer.
TheMistaBiscuit Absolutely, but yeah, having an outright restart button is muuuuuch quicker!
I completed both Julianne and BBwolf the first try using zoo n ramp druid. It's already my 4th attempt for Crone but i can't seem to get as lucky as Trump :(
inner fire priest
have a 20/20 on turn 3, gg
Best way to win Vs. "The Crone" is to play warlock and put a Dreadsteed on the taunt side
Lol Didn't even know The Crone had twisting nether since I somehow won first try and she didn't feel like casting it/didn't have it.
He already uploaded this video earlier right ?
Unless you mean the normal and class challenges video, no he did not
Yeah, I figure out it was the heroic mode...
Aggro Shaman , cast ancestral spirit on Dorothy at 8.
I beat heroic crone first time. Just used a standard zoolock deck, with doomguard for taunting.
I think Evolve Shaman is good for the Big Bad Wolf boss
25:25 why concede? I highly doubt she'll top deck twisting nether. And you set up lethal with call of the wild
she's guaranteed to draw it on t8 :)
+Luke Smith Source?
She gets a second copy of twisting nether on turn 9 as well, I bet after turn 7 every draw is twisting nether.
Well if you're willing to trust people who can confirm 12 consecutive runs of top decking twisting nether on turn 8
Generalizedfeelings Er, that's how the fight is programmed? Watch anyone do it. :)
What if you had side show stealer?
doesn't work in adventures but does work on rag, jaraxxus and justicar
w8, isnt big bad wolf easy win with exodia mage?
When trumps gets to overconfident 17:00
He already knew he will lose cause.. CHAT fk em
