The decks you need to win Hearthstone’s Aviana’s Night Tavern Brawl

Let’s party with a fallen demigod in the Hearthstone Aviana’s Night Tavern Brawl. We’ll have some high-flying fun with the wild god of Azeroth’s birds and other winged creatures. Unfortunately, Aviana seems to have fallen under the curse of the Witchwood. It might be a party where we escape on a wing and prayer. I don’t want to Harp-y on this too much, so let’s get to the Brawl!

Tavern Brawl basics

• Name: Aviana’s Night
• Description: It’s Aviana’s Night at the tavern and the feeling’s right! First card you play each turn will be on the house.
• Fun level: 3/10
• Difficulty: 5/10
• Replayability: 2/10
• Format: Stardard
• Type: PVP
• Deck: Constructed
• Rewards: 1 The Lost City of Un’goro Pack

This Brawl is similar to other Brawls that take the effect of a single card and make it the rule set for the Brawl. We’ve seen this with Brawls like the Three Wishes Tavern Brawl based on Zephrys the Great, or the Miniature Warfare Tavern Brawl using the effect of  Jepetto Joybuzz. Aviana’s Night takes its rule set from Duskfallen Aviana. This card entered Hearthstone through The Witchwood set as a legendary Druid minion card.

Because this is a Constructed Brawl using only cards in the Standard rotation, the size of your card collection will make a huge difference in the decks you can build — and how difficult it might be to get a win. Because the first card you play each turn costs zero, the Brawl lends itself to very greedy decks that deploy those expensive Epic and Legendary cards. Those cards become more important than usual.

How to win Aviana’s Night Hearthstone Tavern Brawl

Like most Constructed Brawls, the key to victory is finding a great deck. Over time, players discover the meta — the deck (or decks) that are particularly strong given the ruleset. These lists are published on sites like ours and others. They become dominant, then counter decks rise and you fall into the same sort of ‘meta’ as you see on the Ladder.

Going first seems to provide a significant advantage. You get the first big threat down and your opponent almost has to deal with it, giving up tempo and initiative.

The truth is that most decks will feature a lot of the very same cards for this brawl: big, expensive minions that do a lot when they’re played. Each deck variation here tries to shift things slightly int its favor with some class… flavor.

The Druid class gives you Hydration Station to resurrect some big minions mid-fight, and Forest Lord Cenarius is a powerful addition as well that can either help you close the game or survive for one more turn. Seismopod is a great Turn 1 play.

For Warlock, Agamaggan is the one card you most want to see early on. You’ll make a dent on your opponent’s health in addition to getting a big minion out. The two copies of Black Hole can also help you if things start to go south.

In addition to the cards most decks are adding for this brawl, the Mage pack gives you some big spells like Yogg in the Box, and cards like Kalecgos to allow you to cheat them out in addition to the big minions. Worked for me!

One of these decks should see you through. If you find another great deck, share it with us in the comments.

Getting a win with a smaller collection can be challenging. If none of these decks work for you, check for more community decks on Hearthstone Top Decks. New Brawl decks keep being added all the time.

Not the must fun brawl ever in my opinion. Still, good luck getting this week’s pack!
