This deck in a nutshell and mages in general : Disregard skill, acquire pyroblast.
I like how Force started talking on the last game. Pretty giddy and hilarious.
If blizzard added cards that offer counterplay for things like pyroblast, like silence mechanics that prevent a hero from casting spells, i believe that kind of spells would be balanced. I mean, if Blizzard added cards like Spell Lock(warlock), Silencing shot(hunter), Kick(rogue), Solar beam(druid), Psychic Scream(priest), Wind Shear(shaman), Pummel(warrior), Rebuke(paladin) and Frost Jaw(mage), it would be great! Those spells fit with the WoW theme and could solve the problem.
This comment section -.- anyways, great guides & gameplay videos as always Force, thanks a ton, great job!
hey, we're not hating on force, I even liked and shared the video.
Great vid Force! Whenever I need a break from watching good hearthstone play and am in a mood for a laugh, I tune in to your vids :D
man it seems like mages always have frostbolt in their hands
Its sooo fucking true
Tell me about it... though I have to say, I didn't know Hearthstone was played in Equestria.
so ture! every facking time!
LegoM007 :L I found this comment chain so funny I almost got myself a profile pic of RD.
Glad to make people smile and laugh. Cheers to you and may 2014 be filled with these kinds of funny moments.
Also, do you think RD would even have enough patience for Hearthstone? What would be her class?
Those mages and their crazy spells.
Force Would be awesome to see a video where you build your own deck and play it a few games. Love your videos man. Keep up the great work.
That moment when Force forgets the opponent used the first frost bolt to kill his mana wyrm.
"all 3 of your friends think you are really cool" best part of the video.
Force just wanna say great videos man. I have really come to enjoy your channel. Sorry for the haters but as always ignore them and keep it up :D
Gotta love the Heart of the Cards! Top Deck magic.
Finally new video!Tnx a lot Force...
Great videos Force, keep em comin
Love the videos force, especially the deck spotlights! 6-1 with this deck currently and now rank 8...1 loss was against the exact rogue deck that you lost to :/
Another moment where TH-cam does an uneeded change, and everything else that was fine breaks . . . fml TH-cam, get your shit together
What change?
***** they put new comments over top comments now, and made a tab for you to change it, but its default set on new comments. fucking youtube.
That's been there for a long time.
Actually, I've just noticed the tab now and it's set to show Top Comments first so I guess that's my default
Hourani9000 you should be able to change to default :) mine is set to top comments and i didn't touch it :) look under settings somewhere is my advise!
Finally!!!! You said it. Believe in the heart of the cards and you will win.
15:54 is where the best sentence ever is.
That name was as clever as the thermal paste job in "the beast" build video.
Dark Iron Dwarf, Defender of Argus and Argent Commander, perfect grounds for BOOOOOOOOOOOORING DECK
I disagree,this deck is super fun.
the chances of him drawing a third frostbolt in constructed are not just low, they are exactly 0.
Lesson of the day: DO NOT use trivial/vulgar nicknames or Force will forget his proverbial good manners and use his eloquence to make fun of you XD
Pinkie = Jaraxxus (no explanation necessary)
Flutters = Hunter / Druid (cus animals / nature)
Dash = Rogue (cus speed)
AJ = Warrior (cus strength)
Rarity = Priest (cus idk, trying to match all classes and she gets stuck with priest)
Twilight = Mage (cus magic)
Celestia = Paladin (cus LIGHT)
Zecora = Shaman (cus racism)
Luna = Warlock (cus darkness and emo self-inflicted pain)
Hej Force great vid!
Any chance you give the Turn 7 hunter deck posted by the_Ark on reddit a while back a spotlight ? haven't seen many hunter decks lately and this one is actualy fun and good. Anyways keep up the gd work !
that first turn Force had in his opening play, mana worm, coin mirror image, is a play that i've used before in my mage deck, and ive had my opponent just quit after seeng me get 3/3 and 2 0/2's with taunt.....and that's happened to me twice. true story
i once coined out a defias bandit, oponent left...
Lol heart of the cards, yugioh reference
Top deck pyroblast, win: The Deck.
hey force, i am rank 6 with you (have played against you before) and one of the "new" decks I am sure you have een at our rank (I have seen lots of it) is the mega rush hunter. no buzzards, just rly erly creatures with eaglehorn and gladiator's and hero power to secure the victory...
Heart of the cards!
Imo Force is more of a 12yr olds name than b4llsdeep. But hey, thats just me.
This guy must be b4llsdeep.
At least Force is actually a good name. Who the hell would want to be named b4llsdeep? Perhaps your idea of maturity is vastly different from mine...
I think he's some kind of infectious disease biologist, I have seen this writing style before, his name is a phonetic way to write:
Be For ils (Institute of Life Sciences) Deep.
Deep is the way to describe how devoted he is to his job.
Embrace!
-says the person with numbers in place of letters.
GibzthenabNibz do you think his name is actually jensss but with numbers?
looks like a good deck however do you not feel youu should always have a good taunt and that secret shield spell in a mage deck ?
THE GUY HE PLAYED IN THE SECOND GAME! HIS NAME WAS BALLZ DEEP!!! someone else knows Jack and Dean...
I like how b4llzdeep aged from five to twelve over the course of that game XD
4:10 funnily enough frostbolt heals water elementals in WoW
am i the only one who noticed that force was worried about a third frost bolt in the first game?
I hate it when people overreact to a "childish" name. My gamertag for every game since WoW has been Shakesbabies. Why? Because I think it's funny at how offended people get and it's always available so I'm not stuck with xKillerMan123x or some generic crap. I've also gone with BigNickDigger. People lose their minds and demand a GM ban me immediately. Why? Am I to be punished because of your sensitive nature and air of self-importance? Who's the immature one here - the guy who chuckled and made an unusual name or the guy who couldn't cope with how offended he was over a word?
Its always funny to see Force overreact, then get beaten by said 12 year old.
I remember back to my WoW days... I had a Gnome called CamelToe, really got the people going.
What made you think he was offended? Nothing he did showed offence in the slightest, he just thought it was childish, which it was, with your name being things like that shows to me that you are probably quite young yourself, because you think it's funny that people are offended, but nobody is offended, they just think it's immature, because it is lol
When he realized what the tag was his whole attitude changes. He gets all pretentious calling him stupid and says he is 12, and "his mother stopped yelling at him". I think that is childish. But force pretty much does that with any drug or sexual reference gamer tag.
I think tags like xKillerMan123x are more immature as they show a lack of intelligence and creativity, while tags like BigNickDigger show for one thing an excellent grasp of the english language. If you get offended by that or think its childish you should write a strongly worded letter to the FCUK fashion label people and demand they change it.
You changed two letters around and that's an excellent grasp of the english language...:| Yes...great creativity and intelligence...:|
Its not about changing two letters around, its about word play, semantics, culture, so many levels. I guess you get it or you don't.
For a starter, do you have recommended changes for Defender of Argus, Argent Commander, and Pyroblast?
at at 13:45 you most definately should have drawn was quite obvious he had evis, u had arcane missles and frostbolt to save u
All hail Luluj
Try Noxiuous' Randium Wrynn deck!
Can we get a hunter deck once in a while?
Hi Force, you need to watch some streams :-) I have seen some nasty sharman Ancestral Spirit and Sylvanas Windrunner combos. also with bloodhoof :-P
this deck is almost identical like my own Mage deck (tho they are all about the same stuff) but I find that I often run out of cards with this type of deck. Like ending like the first match, depending on top-decking. Not ideal
I have the cards to play this deck but I refuse to play it, I hate it so much, I think its just ridiculous and I feel dirty playing it xD
It's a disgusting no skill deck...
Pyroblast needs to cost 10 mana and do 8 damage tops or just be completely removed from the game.
it would be impossible for it to be removed from the game its a high priority card Lore wise
wyatterp123
There are massive amounts of lore things that are not in the game. Your point is invalid.
Pyroblast needs a bit of a nerf but that's way too extreme. I'd 9 or 10 mana for 10 damage.
Ghostneedle1 How about no.
I think what i would like to see is pyroblast doing damage equal to your mana crystals. It could even cost the amount of mana crystals you have, so that it could be used cheaper and for lower damage in some situations
Make a rogue deck
***** yes he does, he opens his collection profile and builds all the decks found elsewhere, nd showcases them, i think what you were trying to be a smart ass about is that he doesn't come up with these decks on his own.
i was trying to give you a lesson in specificity, you said "he doesn't make any decks" which is factually incorrect, as he makes all decks he spotlights and and plays them to showcase them, what you intended to say was that he isn't the brain behind the decks, they are created by other people on fansites etc, guess i shouldn't have bothered with the effort.
tereesrgreen Doesn't calling somebody on a technicality make you the "smart ass" technically?
TheTKForce ok, i'll be the smart arse, you can be the wise guy, happy?
tereesrgreen Very. :D
First! Haha enjoy your Coin, nerds.
:D Refresh the page!
darkersupersonicfan Well I think I get bonus points for creativity :p
Yeah, you get one point.
darkersupersonicfan Nah he just gets a coin
Does this deck not work anymore? I'm playing this deck for a quest, only rank 18 and I'm on a losing streak. I cannot win with this deck at all.
someones never been ballzdeep b4 . .
Wow Force, you are really hung up about names which aren't as majestic and creative as yours. Get over it.
10:10
Yeah, because you're so quick to make your plays.
First game didn't open up ideally? What?!?! You cant ask for a better opener than coin/manaworm/mirror image!!
And not keeping the novice engineer second game?
...then bitching about getting mirror and missiles
Just have to ask force what to do you think needs to be balanced in hearthstone at the moment I'm in the beta but it still feels like hunter just sucks now and priest, shaman are the bottom tier of class with the top being mage, druid and warrior.
my name isn't force but i think i should share my opinion on this, totally agree that mage druid and warrior are at the top but i feel like all the others are kind of well balanced, i really hate the changes to the priest's mind control, its totally useless now in my opinion, im not into "late game" in hearthstone where i have a large amount of cards, but my hunter deck does fairly well as a secret deck. i find that rogue-spell damage combo is become extremely powerful. right now they need to make magic "blockable" with certain minions and that alone should balance mage and most of the OP classes. basically a taunt for magic.
storm ragnerov Yes thats my opinion, taunts for spells, Ive been saying this for a while and I think it could be the solution to counter such an op mage decks xD
storm ragnerov the class I think is well balanced is paladin, shaman may need more tweaking but it's well rounded too, hunter isn't too good and there are ways around the secrets, priest's early game is really bad compared to all the other classes and right now mage deals too much damage efficiently (for 4 mana you can do 11 damage with frost bot and 2 ice lances) and warlock's blood imp is really the reason it's become too good. That's just what I've been seeing and right now it's kind of boring seeing the same kind of decks and classes in the beta I just hope they balance more things out and make new cards.
Top deck mage op, better nerf Rouges..
the guy who says first is actually fourth O _O karma
lol dat trash talk XD
So Frostbolt can single target mobs past the taunts you have in play? Why are single target spells exempt from taunt?
Taunts only affect minions, not spells. So you are free to cast any spell to any target even when there is a taunter in play.
kid1412d They affect physical attacks not spells, so it also affects your characters attacks i.e. warriors, rogues etc.
Force you are the luckiest drawer. :p.
why would balls deep player be a 12 year old? if he likes that name then he will use it and it doesnt means that he is a 12 year old... whateverrr it was just annoying hearing you commentating on his name
Lol that 2nd game, thats what you get for bming xD
Pyroblast has to be the lowest skill card ever. Facing fatal damage next turn and no cards in hand? No problem... just topdeck Pyro for the win. Ugh.
Chances are high that Pyroblast will change or go away even because a lot of Blizzard's players are complaining about how sick that card is. If it was a 10 damage minion for 8 mana with charge, then I would have been ok with it because it would still have to go through taunts. Pyroblast just bypasses that. Blizzard has to get rid of this card effect or change it as well as doing something about the murlocs or else they will face the same consequences as Konami did when they took a year to take care of the overpowered Dragon Rulers (sick yugioh deck no skill involved). Konami was forced to openly apologize for making those cards so broken and so powerful. I also feel that I can only play mage if Pyroblast is involved. If not then the deck's just weak unless your that prodigy who somehow can get a mage deck to legendary ranking without pyroblasts, I'd surely hit the well-played button if I see that.
i love how fail this comment is, pyroblast is one of the most INEFFICIENT cards in this damn game, the only reason it is taken at all, is because it is 10 damage on a SINGLE card, most of the time to get 10 damage in 1 action it has to be a paladin buffing a minion with kings to 10/x, IF blizzard nerf pyroblast in any way, i hope you realise that all mage minions will get super buffed to compensate, and then you will start crying about how "OP" [insert random mage minion here] is, you people are why games like this will fail epically, go back to WoW where you can't loose.
tereesrgreen Actually I won't. I will stand by my statement along with a huge amount of other Hearthstone players who all agree that no card game should have a single spell that can take away a third of some one's life total. The amount of people who complain about pyroblast is a very large growing group. We aren't cry-babies as you put because we back up our argument. They don't have to compensate the other mage minions if they get rid of pyroblast or nerf it since Blizzard announced that new cards are coming. You can be that guy to tell me to die in a fire, play WoW in my mother's basement but all you're really doing here is comfirming all I've just said. I will say it again, a lot of people are done with pyroblast being that card that takes no skill. Just like a lot of people were sick about the Yugioh decks known as Dragon Rulers and cards like Sixth Sense, and Return from a Different Dimension. Players who play a card game for a long time and grow with it while it develops can recognize an overpowered card. I personally think as a compensation, Water Elemental is one of the best minions for a mage deck. Playing against it is annoying but it's not something I can't deal with. Also when I win with Pyroblast, I don't feel an achieved victory. I feel the same as the constant easy-winning streak with the Dragon Rulers (March 2013 banlist). I feel like nothing really happened in a duel, like playing against a new player. Forgive me for bringing you this lengthy post, I should actually be eating your head off for the rude things you said to me but this is how I as a customer and a player feel about the card game and I stick with it and the moment you said "you people are the reason... blah blah" you just kind of played some sort of race card here. You don't know me, so don't be condencending since I don't treat you like that either. Understood? I'm not in high school anymore, and I don't know if you still are but it won't surprise me if you are THAT guy.
Zierota Slingen i have played hearthstone since it entered closed beta back in august last year, and in my honest opinion, the entire game is fundamentally broken, and i find it hilarious that you say you dislike pyroblast as a mehcanic, yet seem totally fine with a druid playing an anceint of war, selecting the "+5 attack" option and smacking you for 10 damage to teh face for 7 mana, there are a myriad of different cards, and spells that can achieve the exact same thing pyroblast can do, in alot of cases for cheaper cost, and yet you still complain about pyroblast, that truly does astound me, also, just gonna point this out, because i think you, and many othersl ike you fail to grasp this concept, the mage class is a caster class ergo, they use spells as a PRIMARY source of damage, and minions as secondary damage, whereas a warrior or paladin uses minions as a PRIMARY source of damage, and spells as a secondary source of damage, what you are asking is for blizzard to homogenise the game so all classes play the same (minions = primary damage, spells = secondary damage) because you find a SPELLCASTER class "OP", it is not the class or the single card that is at fault, but the way you play/build your deck. and because i feel it is necessary to point out, my reference to WoW wasn't about whether or not you still play it in your mothers basement, it was reference to teh fact that in WoW, even when you loose, you win, and you seem to fit this archetype very well complaining about loosing, well guess what, in a card game, 50% of all players will loose, and i stopped going to school when i got both my degrees and had children, so sorry to disappoint you with your failed ad hominem jibe.
tereesrgreen Wow! Taking all of what I said out of context. Yet I'm the one that fails here, right? I'm the blind one here. One of us has to be the blind one, right?
Look sweetheart, it's the personal stabs you've made that cause me to bite back. I have taken your ad hominem as an example and added all the other ones to it because they strike to me as the same stuff. You demand me to go do a certain thing so that it makes me look stupid and you look like some sort of keyboard veteran. If you're that guy, fine. Our conversations ends here. I have no time for childish arguments thrown by guys who act all big but are in fact all bark and no bite to me. Guys who tell me to play games I can't lose strike to me as the same guys who tell me to fail at something else or the guys who tell me to go die in a fire. All that bullshit is condensending stuff you can put back in the asshole it came from, namely your own! Understood? Good boy!
My complaint is not the mage as a class (as if these words actually came from me), but it's just one card they can play that causes issues. My complaint as well as many others are all about the Pyroblast.
And putting words in my mouth that suggest that I'm okay with the druid's Ancient of War being able to strike with 10 damage, as if I litterally said it.... NO! Here's what I'll do, little boy! I stand by what I say. Pyroblast is a problem, a lot of people say the same. Mage as a class is fine. And by the way, Ancient of War needs a turn to get ready for an attack. He'll have 5 health and becomes a target, rather than a threat. A lot of people played that card for the taunt and health buff, and they got dissappointed when the anti meta cards were deployed such as the Black Knight. Now there suddenly is every one's favorite Strifecro druid deck with no Ancient of Wars in it.
So next time you want to put words in my mouth, make sure you don't piss people off by going personal. Manners, please. Be polite, or earn my contempt (which you already have by now).
Force lost to a 5 year old. ;) Just kidding. Great video Force.
waiting for 720p -_-
Welcome to youtube
"If he wants to waste a Fireball on a Water Elemental then im in pretty good shape"What?You're an aggro deck and you value your life points more than a creature?And btw fireball is the perfect answer to an otherwise problematic early game creature such as Water Elemental.
b4allsdeep got you that riled up?
It's not even as bad as some others. Kinda sad...
yo know what i mean............ kid
OMG FORCE 3 FROSTBOLTS the first game that was lame
i enjoy your vids a lot but there is so many mistakes =p
There is so many mistakes huh?
Yes, there are.
Some weird static in this vid at times force.
Have any time stamps for the noise you are hearing? Would like to isolate it to fix the problem if possible. Thanks!
Force Strategy Gaming Sure, lil bit at the start 00:03, then some more noticeable at 09:14 and also at 15:24, hope that helps!
You´re so rude Force :D But damn funny! :D
Awesome games :D
god i fucking always lose to this. no matter what my deck is....
friggin pyro or 2 fireballs - every time
Man this looks like vomit @ 360p. Waiting for 720p too.
Really, Force, ''The twelve years old?'' It's a videogame, of course there will be young people playing. You're the old one which is out of position, not him.
force you fail at using sylvanas yo
dude im 12
Why do I keep watching this guy? Always plays poorly. I mean, he lost to a 12 year old. That's unacceptable.
metadecks are metadecks
people need to stop complaining
even gimicky decks like OTK warrior aren't that good
zero skill deck, mages do suck
Does hearthstone have any skill involved in constructed? It's just about what you get in your hand. Yes, I realise that there are different ways to clear the enemy board, make correct trades, but this is not so skill dependent as you probably think, IMO.
Григорий Олянин It leaves people feeling helpless as there isn't that much that can be done to "prevent" it. The skill in hearthstone might be hard to see, but it's clear this style of play is pretty broken. Pyro and ragnaros are the cards I have the biggest problems with atm.
Григорий Олянин In Hearthstone, you really have two choices: Play for board control, or try to out-DPS your opponent. Board control relies less on drawing well and therefore is the more consistent strategy, but the mid/late-game trading takes a lot of foresight and quick-thinking to execute efficiently. For this reason, many players find it easier to go for DPS, which is a more straightforward style but typically means sacrificing your board presence (which will lose you the game if you don't draw well). I think that's why mages get a lot of hate.
Mages are disgusting.
Nice, and cheap.
Mage decks are so lame
