Greetings boiling broilers! I was playing a "grinder" control mage against a Dragon Priest. He got out to an early lead and by turn 8 or 9, had a board that consisted of Confessor Paletress, an Icehowl, Foereaper, Chromaggus, and Wyrmrest Argent (some damaged), while I had a zombie chow and two boombots. I topdecked flamestrike, and with a couple of good booms, was able to clear all but the Icehowl. Next turn I played an Alexstraza to get from 9 health to 15, and after trading his icehowl into it, my Effigy gave me Mal-Ganis, which absorbed some further threats. We went back and forth and he eventually got me down to 6 health. I was able to heal back to 30 using Brann-Healbot, and later another healbot. He got me back down to 2 health. I YOLO'd my Ethereal Conjurer, picked an unstable portal, YOLO'd again, and lo and behold, Reno was staring me in the face. After I healed back to 30, it was his turn again, and he drew his last card. He played a Lightspawn and Inner fire, giving him a 10/10 on board. I topdecked my BGH, wished him a Happy Feast of Winterveil, and blew his brains out.

The game lasted 25 minutes and I thought I was dead at least 3 times. I've been playing since Naxxramus, and it was my favorite game I've played so far. Anyway, wanted to share it with the community. Keep on clucking.

Hey peeps,

I've been debating using a deck tracker.  During the 6 months I have been playing reached rank 9 once and flirting with it again this season.  When researching deck trackers it seems it's always some third party link and I don't feel like downloading malware .  Also I was curious about your thoughts on trackers.  Love the podcast and keep up the good work.

Hello TAC Crew,

Do you think we'll see the artifact weapons coming in WoW: Legion in Hearthstone?  I would like to see caster classes get weapons.

Hello Rambunctious Roosters!

Quick question: do you find that time of day matters when attempting to rank in ladder?

I wake up for 7am weekly calls for work, and obviously I'm not paying a ton of attention because I play Hearthstone during them. During these early morning hours, I am kicking ass and taking names - with meta-approved decks, of course. I usually climb at least a few ranks, no problem. But considering I'm emailing at 2am, occasionally I get restless and will go into ladder to wait out my insomnia. And holy hell, does it seem like Night Ladder is where Rank 5 dreams go to die. I dropped 3 ranks just now in games I'm still not sure how I lost. Has anyone else had this experience? Has anyone had the OPPOSITE experience? What gives? I'm curious to find out and hypothesize.

Keep up the amazing show!
