*pant pant* I... *gasp* Give Up.


Deck: Magnificent Justice

My crusade continued (see previous post). No one could stand against me. A rogue sneaking in the shadows assaulted my army, and a ferociousIt was clear this rogue was prepared to dish out as many attacks as possible. She assaulted my troops with combos left and right, then Shadowstepped her minions back into her hand for another round. My own spells and summons were dwindling as I fought to keep up with her, but my Silver Hand Recruits were always a source of help on the front lines. Though many of them died from her Wicked Knife, one I was able to bless with a Blessing of Kings that threw a wrench into her plan.
Eventually, she got me down to a mere 12 health. I was wounded severely, but I was not even close to being ready to give up. A Gadgetzan Auctioneer and none other than VanCleef himself was on the battlefield, at an 8/8 strength level. I had to act fast. For the third time that battle I summoned Tirion Fordring (he had been sapped twice). His shield up and his divine shield glowing, he was prepared to defend me from the combined damage that would destroy me. Luckily, since I had more mana this time I summoned, I protected him with two Secrets: Redemption, that would bring him back to life, and a Defender, who would attempt to kill anyone who came close to him, giving his divine shield another hit. The rogue, however, had other plans. She hurled two fans of knives on the battlefield, popping Tirion's Divine Shield. At this point, however, because of the Auctioneer, she became greatly fatigued by this. One of the rogue's minions attempted to attack Tirion, but my Defender yelled "Get down!" and took the blow in his place. Unfortunately, my Redemption secret backfired, and revived the Defender instead. "That was a mistake," I muttered. But I pressed on.
VanCleef killed Tirion, killing himself in the process, and I took up his Ashbringer as a weapon of my own. I hit the rogue, realizing that I should spare the Auctioneer to fatigue her even more.
This proved to work out nicely. With every ability the rogue used, the Auctioneer sold her ability, making her even more fatigued. She sent the auctioneer into battle to be killed, but it was too late. With so many abilities that fatigued her even more, such as Shiv and Fan of Knives, she succumbed to her fatigue and gasped, "I give up." Before my soldiers captured her to be executed.

Don't Test Me, Child!


Deck: Magnificent Justice

I was on the biggest kill streak I have ever been on (which later led me to Rank 15, my new high). No one could stand against my legion of light warriors. One priest called Farando challenged my honor and we began to fight. His attempts on my life were laughable. His first tactic was to only heal himself for seven turns straight until he had enough to use his Mana Coin to summon Ragnaros the Firelord. (He even had to throw away one of his spells because his capacity was too full---on his own!)  By then, I had a sizeable force of warriors ready, and using my Humility power I reduced Ragnaros to an unstable, but meek minion. My warriors were able to take minimal damage to finish him off. His champion defeated, the priest was angered and began to actually think about his tactics and fight.
We fought for a time, but his attacks were largely unnoticeable by me. When he summoned some minions with Divine Shields, my Blood Knight absorbed them to become extremely powerful. Then my Defender of Argus handed him a shield to protect the other minions with. I also sent out a Knife Juggler and a Alarm-O-Bot. The priest had a measely 1 health left at this point, quivering with fear, but he knew I had no hero power to fire past shields. He Mind Controlled my taunting Blood Knight, who stood guard in front of him. At that moment, the Alarm-O-Bot went off. Tirion Fordring himself stepped onto the battlefield when he heard the alarm, and my Knife Juggler was so excited to see him he accidentally tossed a knife clean over the Blood Knight, sinking right into the priest's eye. The littlekin died an ignominious death, and my march of glory continued.

The Glorious Finish


Deck: Right in the Trash

Things were neck-and-neck out there in the battlefield. We had fought for a long time, but I had a trick up my sleeve my opponent wasn't expecting. The enemy was at 21 health, I at 15. When my dragon Maygos was ready, I sent him forward, and used his magical powers to power my melee attacks! A Sinister Strike, normally a mere 3 damage, did 7! My Master of Disguise attacked as well for 4 damage. I was going to retreat and rest, then finish him off when I was ready. After all, I was completely out of mana and he still had 10 health left. But then I realized I had enough for one more blow. Using Preparation allowed me to cast a magic-enhanced Eviscerate, which did a terrifying 9 damage! With 1 health left, my enemy quivering in a pool of blood, I stabbed him in the heart with my rather humble Wicked Knife.

Screenshot collection


I just thought this was a funny and accurate representation of my Priest deck, "Ultimate Synergy." Just look at that assortment of colors and odd cards for a priest to have! Yeah, this silly warrior didn't stand a chance that day.


This is what Jaraxxus looks like if he's played using Mind Games or Mirror Image. I really, REALLY wish my Inner Fire and Divine Spirit would have proc'd this game. Can you imagine a 30/30 rushing towards your face?? Unfortunately that didn't happen, so I pretty much lost, but it was funny to see a baby Jaraxxus on the board.


I can't remember what happened here. Apparently he didn't take one of them seriously and then I ended up getting it copied. This guy was a fool anyway, look how many cards he had and didn't play!


Tres Yseras! I stole one from his deck, mind-controlled the one he played, and then copied one of those! It was hilarious to be drawing three Emerald Dream cards each turn. Needless to say, he didn't last long. And actually he messaged me afterwards saying how hilarious it was, so he was a good sport about it. Also as you can see, apparently I doubled one of their healths. What an emerald nightmare!
