Well, if Kripp would leave Hearthstone will be such a bad sight for them... But for now... He's almost like the face of hearthstone streamers, they paying him a good money, also viewers watching him playing so no reasons for him to leave right now
Tbh it sometimes does feel like the only reason he's playing the game is because Blizzard are basically paying him to do so. Kibler comes across as similar sometimes but he seems atleast better a hiding it.
@@Ifrekinlovecookies ehh maybe a couple such as trihard and the andy meme but thats really about it, forsen made Pepelaugh, omegalul, forsenCD, gachi, Uganda memes zulul, 4head and much more.
Forsen was the reason I got into Hearthstone and more recently started streaming. He and his community's contribution to Twitch culture and the HS scene cannot be overstated - OMEGALUL, gachi music, so many of the memes you see in Thijs chat etc all started here. This video makes me so nostalgic for the forsen/reckful/massan/amaz days. One day a new clone will return to the game - Copesen.
Are you one of those people who spam that stuff in twitch chat? Im srsly curious, whats the point/fun in it? I never watch twitch chat precisely for the chat spammers.
@@vizzez rarely, usually only with some dancing emotes if there's some good music on. I feel the same in chats like Toast or other big mainstream streams, the lines of white text moving so fast isn't nice to watch so i dont bother, at least emotes break it up a bit and can make some funny moments.
Piloted Shredder was actually the most frustrating RNG card in that set. Most decks played in on turn 4, and whoever summoned the better minion in the trade had the advantage.
I started with Kripp early 2015.. when I had bought a tablet and installed HS. move down to watching forsen daily everyday, watched all the forsen boys memes brew, mindless gachi remix dark room streams of him playing non stop while I play hs, watch him in tournaments then there I found Reckful in that Amaz house host HS tournament at the end of 2015 and noticed how reckfuls following was very similar to forsen and since then Reck became my favorite person ever and took a huge influence my life, living 4 years of my life thru them in my room no school no job no friends. Was huge seeing them IRL in Spain
I played Hearthstone around low legend during GvG, I'd argue Unstable Portal and Piloted Shredder were the main things that messed with the rng mechanics of that set. Dr Boom, whilst insanely strong and popular, was not an autoinsert of every major deck like shredder was; with unstable portal sometimes winning the game on turn 2
Remember the one time when Blizz was doing the "personality of Hearthstone" thing and Forsen wasn't even listed but due to Forsen Boys and fans overall being mad in chat under the poll they added him and he even won? That was something awesome!
The funny thing about this is that he was completely right about the RNG, but the playerbase just ended up accepting it more and more, to the point people defend it nowadays and some even ask for more, "because it's fun". It's kinda sad, not gonna lie.
HS is less and less about skills and more and more about luck and OP cards. The simple fact that some decks can carry average players to legend speaks volume.
8:49 actually his stream was in the shitter early 2017. He came from playing OW which already pulled a lot less viewers than HS to then switching to full-time variety. His average viewers were like 2k-3k for months. That's when I started watching during his Witcher 3 playthrough (I didn't like the constant plugdj cancermusic so never was a big viewer in the HS days). Then he started playing PUBG, still only got a few k viewers, until then finally the mic spamming streamsniping started and the IRL Spain streams with Reckful got him back to 20k+ viewers.
hey rarran, i want to see a video about solem (the wild player), i know he made a video about the situation, but it wasn't pretty clear why he was unhappy with the game. Thank you!
With the new quests it just got old and he could not have fun . With cheaters playing wild he started to play on stream and basically said that " after the stream , the editing" was time consuming
Remember Forsen from when I first started Hearthstone - Interesting comparison is my son in his teenage years played Frozen Throne PvP online and was one of the Top 50 players on the EU server - He could never get into Hearthstone because of too much RNG - Great video again young man with excellent insights!
I played HS from closed beta onward but stopped entirely about a year ago. Just tried playing again and had basically zero fun tbh. Maybe I just got tired of it, but I think absurd powercreep and card generation is at least part of the problem. I think Runeterra is a much much better game in terms of its core design, kind of a shame that it isn’t more popular. Though LoR has fallen into the same design trap recently as well so idk
6:35 Gotta say I think you're wrong about Doctor Boom, yes it was a heavily RNG card, and while listing off things like implosion and crackle are very noteworthy RNG heavy cards, and dr Boom was busted, I think a bigger card was the 4/3 Mech that deathrattled out a purely random 2 drop that could easily determine the game at a much earlier point, having two copies, and also be slotted into any deck as a neutral like dr Boom. I could be wrong but it's at least a VERY important card that could've been mentioned, I remember seeing clips of Reynad raging at this and that was the first thing that came to my mind since the aggro early game getting that high roll swings things a lot sooner.
Remember when Forsen and Kripp mocked Reynad in a interview where they all 3 were sitting next to eachother at Blizzcon Hearthstone world championship? It was hilarious. Reynad raged and walked out lol
He wants games to be deterministic based on skill. in a *card* game? The apparent increase in RNG did not actually change the fundamental of the game. It's still a matter of hedging and estimating outcomes based on probability. I'm not even sure if it truly meaningfully increased the standard deviation of game out comes.

You are really hard on people for saying "I'll be back" when pressured into it on a main stage. Come on, he was probably debating and didn't want to close doors unnecessarily.
i loved forsen back in the days, but never been a part of a forsen boyz due to poor english knowledge. so big thx for the vid it’s so cool to realize that Ru-speaking community has our own forsen-alike boy - SilverName. Even if you don’t understand rus just check what’s happening on the broadcast, that’s amazing and mega funny
"One of the best Miracle Rogue players ever *and also a great competitive Hearthstone player*". I dunno if that was meant to sound so shady towards Miracle Rogue, but damn it was lol
Still waiting for "Why Kripp is still playing hearthstone"
Ez: battlegrounds
Well, if Kripp would leave Hearthstone will be such a bad sight for them... But for now... He's almost like the face of hearthstone streamers, they paying him a good money, also viewers watching him playing so no reasons for him to leave right now
bg is the only reason, hes fun to watch on bg with his best rng of unluckiness
it'll be so funny if the whole vid is just
“uh Money thank you for watching"
anf thats it
Tbh it sometimes does feel like the only reason he's playing the game is because Blizzard are basically paying him to do so. Kibler comes across as similar sometimes but he seems atleast better a hiding it.
The impact of Forsen on twitch culture CANNOT be overstated, Forsen and the forsenboys are the creators of soooo many memes
Ice Poseidon has had a ton of impact as well. People call each other "fill in the blank" andy's, they safe scuffed, etc
@@Ifrekinlovecookies ehh maybe a couple such as trihard and the andy meme but thats really about it, forsen made Pepelaugh, omegalul, forsenCD, gachi, Uganda memes zulul, 4head and much more.
@@Ifrekinlovecookies really just with CX spam and TriHard Twitch didn't lost anything valuable when he was kicked out of the platform
I could never watch him due to his horrific accent
@@ziudra91 you know to other countries the american accent sounds dumb and brash? you americans can only speak one language, how sad.
Now he ended up in a Asylum playing Jump King while nurses behind the wall watch him over.

This video about old Forsen gave me hecking chills
Piloted Shredder was actually the most frustrating RNG card in that set. Most decks played in on turn 4, and whoever summoned the better minion in the trade had the advantage.
never thought I would have nostalgia for HS, thank you Rarran
I, from time to time, will go back and watch Trolden videos all prior to ep 200. That is pure nostalgia. Ep 1-100/150 are just blessed memories
I started with Kripp early 2015.. when I had bought a tablet and installed HS. move down to watching forsen daily everyday, watched all the forsen boys memes brew, mindless gachi remix dark room streams of him playing non stop while I play hs, watch him in tournaments then there I found Reckful in that Amaz house host HS tournament at the end of 2015 and noticed how reckfuls following was very similar to forsen and since then Reck became my favorite person ever and took a huge influence my life, living 4 years of my life thru them in my room no school no job no friends. Was huge seeing them IRL in Spain
I played Hearthstone around low legend during GvG, I'd argue Unstable Portal and Piloted Shredder were the main things that messed with the rng mechanics of that set. Dr Boom, whilst insanely strong and popular, was not an autoinsert of every major deck like shredder was; with unstable portal sometimes winning the game on turn 2
And yet the most winning rng type was a draw rng. Ahhhh, good ol' times...
bringing back trauma lmao, all i can remember right now from that era is a board full 2/1 of leper gnomes and mechs killing me by turn 5
same 1 picture LULE
Remember the one time when Blizz was doing the "personality of Hearthstone" thing and Forsen wasn't even listed but due to Forsen Boys and fans overall being mad in chat under the poll they added him and he even won? That was something awesome!

I remember forsen lose to rank 25. "Im at your rank chat"
I can't hear (read) the name Forsen without my mind adding "pls" (please) on the end.
9:28 he's antisocial now. he doesnt talk to anybody LULE
The funny thing about this is that he was completely right about the RNG, but the playerbase just ended up accepting it more and more, to the point people defend it nowadays and some even ask for more, "because it's fun". It's kinda sad, not gonna lie.
HS is less and less about skills and more and more about luck and OP cards. The simple fact that some decks can carry average players to legend speaks volume.
If you didn't stop playing HS at least 5 years ago you're extremely acoustic
Basically every popular name from when I still played except Kripp have moved on. Kinda depressing.
Here’s an idea. Since April 1st is about a week away, do an episode of this on why YOU(Rarran) left HS
I am saving that video for later
Gachi, pleblist, drunk streams, chat
Gosh im missing good old days with old forsen
the sanest person in the forsen-community is forsen himself. love the guy
only streamer i ever subbed to, and it was 6 7 years ago, his streams were so fun
It’s 2024, “still waiting for why kripp is will playing hearthstone”
wont be relevant after the bazaar is released
get it to 50k bajs
The call Reckful comments in chat hit different ...
8:49 actually his stream was in the shitter early 2017. He came from playing OW which already pulled a lot less viewers than HS to then switching to full-time variety.

I member that era. Was checking out plugdj for new songs, forsenDed W era, but pubg was where it picked up.
Because of forsen i stared hearthstone. and im still playing it

Y'all still remember Day9? I wonder why he left.
@@pokemonmaster9398 there's accusations from his ex-girlfriend (she made twitlonger) then he quit streaming then banned from HS competitive

lol i didnt even know Forsen was HS pro player.. I mean I never rly watched him I know him only bcs he is the face of Twitch
I miss old twitch
At 9:20 what does rarran mean by he watched the clip? Clip of what?
Forsen HS times were so comfy.
Because rng is fed up. I only play to complete my quests now, and then f it.
would watch a video on Eloise for sure.
forsen’s metal gear solid playthrough be like: ❗️

RNG in Hearthstone is almost worse than in Poker. Often no way to play around it, you just randomly win or get fucked.
