These are the 3 support cards when you pick Zephyrs as your legendary. One of the stronger picks available (nearly always first choice.)
For reference, I’ve beat many players using wishes on me when I’m not running it in arena. It’s not all-powerful, just a strong card.
With Priest it is. Between imbue and the wishes you are a juggernaut.
I think if you draft for value it’s a losing proposition. There’s so much discover in the game, as long as you take a healthy amount of discover/card-gen cards you can simply focus on tempo. That’s how I’ve basically gotten like 20 free packs in arena today lol.
I see all these simps trying to out-value me, they usually die before turn 7.
Couple small updates on Arena now.
The win rates are flattening out but the wishes are of course the best cards to play and win with according to stats. Also Druid is coming on strong with imbue because you can get up to 3 Hamuul in the imbue Druid through redraft because it is possible to get it one in the redraft. Honestly all you need is 2 to make it disgusting but 3 = insta win on turn 1 essentially.
What’s the advantage of having 3? The effects stacks???
Also, they should take out all imbue effects out of arena IMO. None of them are fun, and if your opponent has it and you don’t or vice-versa you win if you can outlast (which is relatively high probability.) Very lame.
Hence why Imbue Priest is so good. The players at 9+ are reporting nothing but Barcodes at 9-12. The market ramped up fast for the barcode decks and they are selling for quite a bit.
Yes they all stack on each other.
This is insane bullsh*t, holy crap. Who the hell thought that this would be a fun idea in arena?
This is their answer to bots. Make it easy for everyone to get insanse BS.
I think the biggest issue with the treasure is it can do anything. The early wild growth ramp play can be just as game winning as a clear or burn. You can even just solid tempo plays or a blowout edwin turn with it too. And to be able to do that 3 times off of a single card
I dunno I just literally came out of a 5-0 run where the final boss was a mirror except my opponent had the wish package, i didn’t. I had some crappy legendary, which I didn’t care about, all I cared about was the support cards came with 3x imbue.
We were both playing imbue shaman, stacking up to 6 imbues each.
He used all three wish cards, plus he got a perfect, and I mean perfect, roll off of Zephyrs. But it wasn’t enough. He lost all the same.
Wishes aren’t as good as people think. Imbue, however, is broken af in arena.
If there is one thing that needs to gtfo of arena it’s imbue.
I just won against a mage who played those 0 mana wishes. Tyrande on 7. Followed by 7 mans discover 8 mana or more minion casted twice on turn 8. Then the sunset volley for 18 dmg to his face and double 10 drop on turn 9. His perfect cards weren’t that perfect xD
Yepp I just went 5-1 with tyrande package priest. And rolled a shaman deck with 7 imbue cards^^
Are you playing in the Regular Arena or the underground? I only ask because you said you went 5-0.
Edit: DH is pulling about even now with Priest in the Underground Arena.
Underground is where all the scam takes place because every streamer and tgeir dog plays Underground. So if you want the barcode experience is more likely to be there. Thus I think is far better for the average player to play the regular one instead of Underground.
The point of the question is because the regular arena is by MMR and the underground is by record. Yes underground is much harder and yes once you get to about 9 wins it’s mostly barcode decks.
Haha playing regular, I have yet to try underground. I’m actually avoiding it cause I figure thats where all the black-market decks and streamers go.
Not that I don’t think I can not compete with streamers, its the streamers I think that attract the black market decks and those are basically impossible to beat.
Oh look they deemed it too good and removed it from the curated pool along with other stuff and finally it look like they can also finally control discovers separately for different modes if Understand the latest patch notes.
Harder for 50% of the playerbase, easier for 50% up to a point, and then impossible except when luck shines
I for one prefer random matchmaking than the one based on MMR, and I think it’s reasonable xD
EDIT: It’s still very hard for me, as well, but not as much as people claim, and most definitely easier than it used to be, because the average strength of my deck has increased, which puts a higher emphasis on the skills (due to a lower difference in strengths of barcode decks vs mine)
I’ve watched TrumpSC (yes, he’s back) and DoseOfCoffee and they both seem to be doing fine
I just played a game where they have those 3 reborn snakes 1/1 with vernom. Also he played a silence and destroy all enemy minions.
I was shocked. Where did he get those cards from Arena???
