What would you do?

​



Welcome to the first of what is hopefully many on a new THL blog series. Hosted by Detrucci and Nightsmoke. This series is called "What Would You Do?".


The Rules:
  • We become the player on the bottom of the screen and we decide what we would do next in the upcoming turn.
  • Opponents cards are blanked out as well as anything that could give you the answer.
  • Do not look at the stream beforehand, we will post what actually happened in the next post.



This is a series that will come around every Tuesday and use different scenarios of our two beloved streams including "Team Rank Fridays" and our main event special "Salty Saturdays."


But because this is the first edition, I will be using matches across the first 3 weeks of Season 1:Inception and I will pose the question...What would you do if it was your turn next? If you wish to play and have an answer, comment on our facebook page and see if others agree or disagree.


Scenario 1
Gideoneko (Xnergy) vs HertzDonut (Archon Storm)


Our First scenario comes straight from last weekends Salty Saturday opening headliner between 4th Seeders Gideoneko(Xnergy) vs HertzDonut(Archon Storm)

We will be playing the role of Gideoneko
​

In this photo, we are 2-0 down using Handlock and up against the fast board swinging Mech Mage and its turn 6. We are sitting on 17 health total. We do have a Mountain Giant on the board so we have that going for us. But the Annoy o Tron stands between us and some real momentum. But luckily for us there is just so many options to choose from in this next turn. But which play would turn everything upside down and and help Gideoneko come out with the win. Now it's in your hands to decide the fate of this game.
Here are some things to consider:
  • Emperor Thaurissan would create a valuable discount on a lot of cards
  • The opponent just played an Echo of Medivh and his hand is full of some nice cards to play.
  • There is an Ancient Watcher and Sunfury Protector in your hand.
  • Twilight Drake and Sunfury Protector is a 6 mana play
  • Anything you do could provoke a second loatheb or any spell that Mech Mages tend to have.
  • Archmage Antonidas has not been played yet as it is turn 6
What would you do?

Scenario 2
Captain Murdoc (Team Rank 5) vs Hambowen (Pure Strategy)​

​
This match up comes all the way from Week 1, in what is a very explosive opening match up between Hunter and Aggro Druid.

Here we play the role of Captain Murdoc

These 2 aggro decks went flying in from the beginning and on the turn before, we threw out our very own beloved Fel Reever onto the battlefield in order to end this game as soon as possible. The answer from our opponent was a secret played by the Hunter. This next turn will determine many things and could possibly set us up for a 2 turn win...BUT
Here are a some of things to consider:
  • We have no idea what secret it is. Especially considering this is game 1 of the series.
  • We have a couple of options in hand to trigger the secret.
  • Anything we do, could easily backfire on us if we get the play wrong.
  • The last thing we want is for our biggest threat to be sent back home to our hand
  • We do have some combo pieces in hand.
What would you do?

Scenario 3
DeerJason (Soupreme) vs Dlineman (Archon Storm


The Final scenario we have a very control oriented match up
We are building our hand for a freeze mage combo finish and we even have an Emperor Thaurissan that has given us a huge discount. But our opponent controls the current board and also has out a Void Caller, which is known to be troublesome for us freeze mages. But we do have ALOT of answers in our hand. and could possibly come out of this in an advantage if we play our cards right.

Here are some things to consider:
  • Alexstrazsa can be coined in and played instantly
  • We currently have no secrets up and a Mad Scientist in hand
  • We have 7 damage worth of combo spells
  • We have 2 AoE options
...What you would do?
​

And there you have it, 3 scenarios from 3 completely different POV's Please Let us know your answers and leave your comments and discussions on our facebook group page. The actual plays for these scenarios will be revealed very soon.

24 Hours have passed and now its time to reveal what actually happened!
Click on the links to direct you to the exact situation and see what happened by the player himself.

Gideoneko vs Hertz Donut

SCENARIO 1 WHAT REALLY HAPPENED​
This is my favourite scenario this week and this is exactly why I feel this series will be an invaluable education on game mechanics.
So BoomBoomHall came out with an interesting play with using Siphon Soul on the Loatheb. Slimsch's what would you do answer could probably changed this match up alot.
But Gideoneko went with the play most of you guys went with. Making the most of the 6 mana available. He plays the Twilight Drake into Sunfury Protector between the 2 big minons. This turn cements his board and win comes shortly after. This is the perfect example of using your mana curve to secure the biggest advantage.

CaptainMurdoc vs Hambowen
SCENARIO 2 WHAT REALLY HAPPENED
We got some very interesting answers on this scenario and with so many options available. The actual play is completely different. In an amazing turn of events, what could have set up the win in 2 turns. CaptainMurdoc quickly plays the Knife Juggler without thinking twice and then the Druid of the Saber into charge mode. The charge minion goes straight for the face. This triggers the secret and it turns out to be explosive trap, killing the new charge minion and the knife juggler. The Fel Reever lives but the hunter goes on to take charge of the game and Captain Murdoc actually ends up throwing away the game from that very moment. This is exactly why it is important to take the time to analyze all available plays and that hearthstone is a game where 1 bad play will lose you the entire match.

DeerJason vs Dlineman
SCENARIO 3 WHAT REALLY HAPPENED
​
So this one was a tough scenario no matter what was played. DeerJason decided the explosive sheep was worth throwing onto the board along with the mad scientist and the ice block secret. This gave him some solid damage nullification next turn but ultimately Dlineman's hand was just so strong that this was one tough scenario.
​

We will be back next Tuesday with scenarios from the Week 4 match ups.
