TB got me into Hearthstone all these years ago. Before the dark times... Now, it's a bittersweet feeling hearing him speak from beyond the grave. RIP TB
Who’s here rewatching this epic series in 2020?
I'm here because I was looking for the one with "banana synergy" but just decided to watch them all
Im still here in 2022.
Yep, 2022 here and 8 years later TBs content is still fantastic. Pretty cool to see such an early take on the game
Here
@@grdguardian 2023 we'll be here too
''Murloc Raider is excellent'' We should remind him that he said that.
I still come back to watch these vids sometimes just to hear this mans voice. You are missed TB.
*Picks a Goldshire Footman over Yeti*
lol what a noob, just kidding
RIP - John Peter Bain
I thank ya TB for getting me into Hearthstone. Now I'm going to be working my butt off in creating a strong deck.
Hey Megaman! I subscribed to you a long time ago!
Thank you joe.
Me too. I have it on the iPad, so I can play this and Civilization at the same time.
DrAnimePhD Hearthstone on iPad? Hell yeah. :)
***** Yeah, you didn't know? Hearthstone got an iOS port, and it's amazing. It's one of the few free to plays on the app store that is good. You also get exclusive iDecks for playing it on an iPad or iPhone.
Just one more video before bed...
Wow. You've got so much better since then. At drafting in particular.
I've gotten a void terror up to 22/23 before by having it eat another void terror it was glorious
haha sounds awesome dude
...aaand there comes the pollymorph
Haha ^^
or hunter's mark + arcane shot :P
TastyBrush
I like hunter's mark + unleash the hounds/charge boar more :D
So glad these videos are still available.
That draft though, I love it.
"Murloc Raider, it's excellent!" We've come a long way, TB.
The drafting portion was hard to watch
"murloc raider is excellent"
*facepalm*
I go back to this video from seeing all of them and see his intro "I wont do this regularly" "might not play it much at all" "This is a test format might not even be viable" and laugh.
his opinion of cards has changed soo much and not just from buffs and nurfs
Yeah isn't it amazing how much he's learned over these six months?
I know right? A murloc raider being very good?
goldshire footman over a yeti is just stupid
I cried when he tossed a yeti and a golem for a freaking goldshire footman
he played 3 games with the same guy? xD wtf
Wow, he got to play against TB three times. Lucky guy.
Or unlucky :P
He's actually played more you tubers the TB
This was really enjoyable to watch
I like how you actually understand the decks more than the other streamers while also explaining what you do
I played this game for over an hour today after Blizzard sent me an email offering me to play in the open access Beta for Hearthstone and I'm glad they did really enjoy the game.
won a match with a paladin. he got full board and i got no minions. so he keeps trying to kill me while i draw healing spells like lay on hands to keep myself alive, until the end when i get my legendary out and BOOM. i really love this game, the tables can turn so quickly
"Murloc Raider is EXCELLENT."
I don't even play this game and even I was tearing my hair out at round 2. Goddamnit Biscuit!
A year later and he's still playing.
lol I just started watching this series at 32-34 then started watching the 1st episode really funny how his thoughts on cards have changed
States that he may never even upload this, make 51 episodes...
Really enjoyed it.
I rarely watch your stuff which is this long, but enjoyed watching this from beginning to end.
I miss this guy
Still watching these videos from time to time as I get bored
I can't believe TB said a murloc was amazing :D
I know right? It's hilarious! x) He's sooo much better now! ^^
pisse3000 Everytime I scroll down and see people commenting on TB's arena picks from months ago, I just wanna comment to tell them how stupid they look by not realizing the date this video was posted, but you've done a good job well done :)
Rindaman :D
pisse3000 He's better but he's still not that good tbh
really painful to watch. at least hes better now
I actually like the drafting process. It's nice to see other players ideas on card selection, particularly when having to choose random cards.
Thank you Total biscuit for getting me into hearthstone, :)
I've played hours and hours of this game. It's fun and in some cases, really fun. The major detriment of this game, and the reason why I'm most likely going to stop playing it, is that it's heavily reliant on you not only spending real money, but spending a lot of it, in order to actively compete against your opponents. This could ultimately reach over $100, and at that point, you would've had enough money to purchase at least two good console or pc games.
In order to earn coins in the game without paying any real money, you have to not only play against an opponent, but you also have to win and win many times. For example, you'd have to play and win 30 games against human opponents in order to have enough coins solely to purchase a pack of five cards without using any real money (not exaggerating). And that pack of five cards that you're able to purchase after beating 30 opponents, is considered a "basic pack" as opposed to the "expert" pack, which costs real money.
O.M.F.G. He choose goldshire footman over a yeti...
Well, it was right when it came ''out'' in beta mode so no one has particular special knowledge of it.. :P
Dude if you knew anything about hearthstone you wouldnt say that.It depends on the situation
I can't believe that it has taken this long for me to find your videos. I've been looking for a good player so that I may watch videos of Hearthstone vicariously until it is released or I manage to receive a beta key.
Keep it up, I love the draft, and I'll be subscribing!
I don't think you actually go through all the TH-cam comments on these videos, but for the record the arena draft part of the video is absolutely vital. Hearing your thoughts about what cards you pick and why is amazingly helpful for new players or players who haven't used the particular build you use. Maybe keep it in its own segment, but do keep it around for any future videos!
I am kinda annoyed by how often TB emphasizes that the Raptor card is kinda worthless, since it is a really good card if you play it in conjuction with all the beast buffing cards out there. True, if you don't have one of those then you probably have better choices than the raptor. But the same goes for basically every card that has an alignement to one of the factions and I see him pulling a lot of demons....
Apart from that, good videos so far, enjoying it :)
I wanna point out here that I don't actually mind him playing bad - since it is fun as hell - but I do mind the misinformation.
True, I suppose. Let me rephrase that then: I do mind that it sounds like that applies to all decks, and not only the arena deck.
I watched... Alot of this...
Rest in peace.
Yes, this is one of the first videos of the game that I've watched and it is a closed beta. So, congratulations, you happen to know more about this game more than I do.
Hyped for Classic. Lord of the Arena and Randuin was what I watched back in the day.

YOU ARE THE BEST HEARTHSTONE PLAYER EVER!!!!
Nope
why is he always against the same guy
This was during beta, so I guess it was just timing.
yes, love the deck building, playthroughs, commenting, annotations that help folks who want to skip to the playthrough. all is well!
I love how at 55:14 he's growing impatient and telling at the guy to make a turn, when his past few turns, he ran out the timer.
Also keep in mind that he chose a footman over a yeti
Never forget the super powerful murloc raider. That value.
Wow re-watching this months later is painful, goldshire footman over yeti and harvest golem, void terror over knife juggler and azure drake...
Let's see here, a 40ish long series (thus far) of hour long videos about a game that I love, commentated by my favorite SC2 commentator? Yeah, I think I'll watch this.
It's amazing how much his opinions of certain cards have changed as he's learnt more about the game.
where are my bois watching this in 2022?
hihi
Randomly missed John and wanted to re watch this
Your view on value of cards in the arena is hilarious; it's so wrong. Goldshire footman over a chillwind AND harvest golem? 2 of the best arena cards in the game? LOL.
You CAN'T be serious.
this was in agust 201
This video was made almost half a year ago and he had been playing for about a month. So yeah stop being a smartass.
Do you even watch his later video about this game? Or just being sarcastic.
pisse3000 Maybe you shouldn't be giving people advice if you're new to the game?
Please keep the Draft, It makes it interesting for those who either dont have the game or havan't played it yet and also gives insight into your choices about the entire deck which is valueable for newer players.
This is a great idea for the series, I especially loved seeing the draw. This should give me a big head start figuring out what I am doing when I get to play too.
"He seemed a little inexperienced honestly" TB after choosing to play a 2/4 and a 2/1 over an 8/8
TotalBiscuit.. I know you say this MANY times about the Nightblade, 5 mana cost for a 4/4 that does 3 damage to the enemy hero? BAD, you say... but in my last match against a mage, I was 2 health, he was 5. I could have easily buffed my 1/1 silver hand knight with Blessing of Kings to do 5 damage to him and win but NOOOO he had to pull out a Nightblade and finish me off.. That card is REALLY good mind you, you're just so closed minded and focused on board control when a little bit of instant damage is just as good. I blame you for my failure.
I love this game, cant stop watching videos on it. TB just makes it soo much better with his commentating to...
"Murlock Raider is excelent" Oh god i almost died so good to watch this old videos
Drafting process is VITAL if it's not in there not worth watching for me please keep it in the insights or at least your thoughts are helpful and entertaining
Less talking more action!
Love this game, always nice to watch, especially with you explaining why your playing cards and if you make mistakes how you made them, and what you could of done instead. Good Job Mr Biscuit!
Never thought I would say this, but I enjoy this series even more than the Hyper Incompetent Single Draft Disaster. Keep it up, TB! Highly entertaining!
lol just won a match with 1 hero health vs 20 enemy hero health. :p
The draft is half the fun! ^^ Hope to see more of this until i can get my hands on my own beta key.
I enjoyed watching the draft. It gives us a better understanding of the cards in the game and how to put together a solid deck from random cards, plus you gave anyone that doesn't feel that way the option to skip ahead to the matches so if you can do that for these arena videos then I see no downside.
watching these videos are the only thing keeping me sain while i "try hard" to get a beta key.
Thanks for the content TB
present day TB would hate these drafting choices, its hilarious how different his opinions are
That void walker is so incredibly OP with the right combo! Looking forward to watching the rest of this.
I'd love to see more of these. Hearthstone is very interesting for me!
TB, I really liked how you broke down the thought processes behind the deck building. That is the thing that I have the most issue with in CCGs. I'd love to see some more videos.
The last combo of yours were truly outstanding, well played sir.
TotalBiscuit, I'm a huge fan of your drafting as I find it extremely interesting as to what cards you pick and why. A lot of people skip that part, but personally I think it's vital for a Hearthstone series, please keep them in or at least give them their own separate video. :)
I like that the drafting is included. Interesting to hear the reasoning behind the deck.
I'll join the "show more" camp :) I'm loving the hearthstone videos, especially the arena drafts.
Can't wait for the game to come out.
its actually funny to see how much TB's opinions change on different cards, such as "I am not too keen on the harvest golem" or "that low cost taunt is great" and the fact he chose the footman against a chill wind yeti
Keep in mind TB is a commentator. His explanations will help people understand what he's doing and why he's doing it. Yeah, it gets him into a time crunch with his moves but he's educating people in the most honest way he can. 1^
"I'm not guaranteeing any videos. Not any." 31 episodes later. Yuuuuup.
without having seen the entire video yet ... The Pandaren "get a creature back from your field" effect can be awesome. Imagine you put down a high power creature like a Harpyie with windfury. Next turn then give it Power Overwhelming. Attack the opponents life twice. Then set that Pandaren card to get your Harpyie back (after you attacked with her). Then the Harpyie lives and you can set her next turn (or the same turn again, if you got the mana still). Avoiding Power Overwhelming's death toll.
Raptors are beasts, totalbiscuit. Beast cards, like other subcategories, can be combined with other cards for certain specialized effects, good for hunters especially
Would love to see more of your games TB. Loved that Void Walker Combo you pulled off there in the 3rd match as well, very smooth.
Yep, want more!
And thx for playing it seriously. I liked hearing your logic and remarks during the drafting.
I like the explanations through the draft phase because I'm still trying to learn all I can about the mechanics while I wait for my own chance to play. In combat, I say just go for the throat to keep your strategy intact.
@ 12:00 it's obviously not as good, but the thing that the bloodfen raptor HAS that balances it somewhat, is that it is a BEAST, which has a lot of synergies, and in my opinion is as good as a lot of other card texts
watching these back... i can't believe you took a murloc raider and a goldshire footman :D
Oasis snap jaw is one of the best turn 3 or 4 play. Especially on priest, paladin and rogue. It's a 2 7 that can't be killed with anything other than polymorph.
the drafting portion of the video is great - a lot of learning for less experienced players like me
What I find myself saying a lot: "Just do it, quit talking!!!" ;)
I would just like to point out a line of TB's dialog that made me chuckle. to Paraphrase, "If you have a lot of weenies then the Succubus is good." Just hilarious TB. XD
I was among the group shouting "You only have 4 Demons! You've played 2 just Sense demons and you'll have your two Blueberry Void guys! Aint no 50% about it!"
You played it right as rain tho, cool video.
you may be a troll, but i looked up that game, started playing it and now i am hooked. thanks man.
Rewatching this, it's quite interesting seeing how TotalBiscuit's opinions on some cards has changed
I really liking this run. I like seeing how you get out of trouble and how you learn from your mistakes. I can't wait to get into this game. I signed up for the beta and with any luck I'll be playing the game in the next beta giveaway.
I enjoy seeing how you think things through TB, keep these up.
TB I miss you man… I watched you in highschool. Now I’m nearing my 30s
The Oasis Snapjaw is amazing if you're playing the hunter and have a Houndmaster
It's absolutely amazing how you prefer 3/2 here over 2/3 when later on you completely change your mind. I'm watching back and it's quite amusing to see how different your playstyle is here.
That 16 damage combo was epic!
Hidden Battlecry (of the 18/15 creature): Summones a broad smile upon your face.
Rest in peace.
Bravo my good TB bravo! 18-15 void terror was amazing to see thank you! Keep it up!
That second game i was like yelling at my screen "you idiot!" hahahaha xD
Well, TB is away for a week, might as well watch this entire series again. *grabs popcorn*
