coffee. Okay, first up Highlord Ohmok. Let's see what he's got here
0:10
It did make a deck for him. There it is, Heroic Highlord. So the deck I
0:15
decided to choose is a mage one because Ohmok's hero power involves him just
0:22
blowing up all your minions. That's gonna suck. So we're gonna go for a rather
0:29
spell heavy kind of approach here with with Jaina. I believe Ohmok only has 30
0:37
health, 30 life, no armor. So we're gonna see how that works out
0:49
Oh yeah, I did lie. No more puns. Yeah, sorry. 30 health and 15 armor I should
0:53
have added. His hero power, destroy a random enemy minion. On normal mode his
0:59
hero power says destroy a random damaged enemy minion. So in this case he
1:03
can blow up any minion that I put out anytime. So the strategy here is you can
1:09
theoretically use any class, any deck that you want, but make sure you get
1:13
extra value out of them. So ideally minions with Deathrattle will be a huge
1:18
priority and extremely beneficial for you. Now something like the Ogre Brute has a
1:25
chance to attack the wrong enemy and I don't like that. So what I'm gonna do is
1:28
I'm gonna drop a vaporize here so that whenever his minion attacks me, whether
1:34
intentionally or not, it will get blown up. Now I'm really hoping that there's no
1:38
other worser minion out there in the deck. I didn't actually get a chance to
1:43
go through the entire decklist so I really have no idea what's in Ohmok's
1:48
decklist here. I've got two flame cannons here that'll protect me for a little bit while longer. I don't need that right now so I'm just gonna go
1:56
ahead and do that. I've got a couple of defensive cards that can help me
2:02
out. My ice barrier will give me added armor just in case and it's gonna buy me
2:07
enough time for me to draw into the pieces that I need to eventually wrap this game up. So right now what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna drop an ice barrier then
2:15
I'm just gonna flame cannon his Ogre Magi there. I kind of figured that an
2:23
Ogre Highlord would have a deck full of Ogres in it. So I've got a sheep in here
2:30
already which is great and there's no threats on the board right now so I can
2:35
easily drop a Fugin on the board. I'm just trying to wonder if I want to save
2:40
it for duplicate. Probably not right now but we'll go ahead and drop Fugin on
2:46
the board. These Naxx cards, I've never actually had a chance to use these Naxx cards
2:51
before in a game so it's kind of nice to get some use out of them. Oh no! We're
3:00
gonna go ahead and sheep this. This is called premium sheep targets. I hope you
3:05
all are in the mood for mutton tonight. Right now I'm playing a bit of a reactive game. Okay we're gonna go and
3:16
drop another Vaporize because this Ogre is huge. And we're gonna Arcane Anelect
3:23
and get us some more cards. There is what I wanted to see, a Kel'thuzad
3:35
Except he's getting a little meaty now, getting all armored up here
3:43
So that's gonna die right away from my second Vaporize. The trap's also
3:51
gonna pop up for some extra armor for myself too, which is nice. We're gonna run
3:58
this guy out of cards here. We're gonna ping his Sarge and then we're gonna
4:05
Flame Cannon the other dude. Yeah alright, we're gonna duplicate too. So duplicate
4:15
lets me, whenever one of my minion dies, two copies of it will go into my hand. So
4:22
premium... premium duplicates going on here hopefully. Playoff night for me so my
4:34
attention might be a little bit distracted later on halfway through the show or something depending on how my team does. Let's see I can drop a Sneeds
4:42
or I can drop a Kel'thuzad. Well let's go ahead and drop Sneeds. May as well
4:49
activate the Deathrattle from here. I'm gonna blow up his Loot Hoarder there too
4:54
Call it a turn. Yep let's see what I get. Props yep I get two copies of it into my
5:04
hand which is nice. Karen Bloodhoof. So normally not a bad card because of the Deathrattle I get
5:13
lots of use out of him when he dies. I'm gonna go ahead and drop his other Ogre there. Let's see. I'm gonna Frostbolt
5:33
him and freeze it in place there and drop another Sneeds on the board
5:42
It's getting all legendaries all the time. Lovely I get Bolvar. That's no good
5:58
We're gonna drop a Kel'thuzad maybe. Yes we are. I'm gonna Suicide Bane into him
6:11
and we're also gonna hope that his hero power doesn't hit Kel'thuzad there
6:24
Lovely Oh this is gonna be tight. Let's see what I can do here. 612 damage. 12 plus the 8 I
6:47
have 20 damage on my on me right now which is not enough for lethal just yet
6:51
I gotta do some bit more stalling. Go ahead and freeze that. Let's see what else can I
7:00
do. I feel like I'm playing catch-up right now too. Three mana to work with. Some Arcane Missiles. I'm gonna go in Arcane Missiles
7:15
and see what we can drop. Okay that's one thing at least. Let's go ahead and dig
7:23
the Frostbolt. Major Domo. All right. Yep get rid of that. Start putting in a bit of offense on him too
7:50
And so many Ogres. I wonder how well an overthemed deck would actually do here
7:56
It's a very well timed flamestrike. Also drop a duplicate while we're at it
8:10
There's one. Drop a fireball on him now. How much cards? He's got six cards left in this deck right now. Five
8:39
cards left. He's gradually running out of stuff to put out so this might just go
8:44
to the distance here. There's the mirror images. He always kills the guy
9:04
That's absolutely ridiculous. There's Stalag. Yeah now we're talking. We've got Thaddeus out in play. Okay now it's got to stay alive
9:21
somehow. 11, 15 damage there. 15 plus 6 is 21. 24, 24, 25. Not quite enough yet. I
9:35
think it's 29 I suppose. So we're almost there but we're not quite. I guess we'll go
9:41
ahead and play a major Domo. Never actually got to play a Thaddeus ever so this is
9:49
kind of neat. Wow
9:59
This guy man, this guy. Play an ice barrier just in case it gets through
10:13
There goes him. 6, 9, 18. 18 plus 4 is 22. I think I got him beat. A Frostbolt. Major
10:26
Domo. Cairn and a Hero Power and there you go. That is how we get rid of heroic Highlord Omok
10:33
Be prepared to do a lot of damage to this guy because he's definitely gonna need it. So that's
10:40
how that kind of encounter works out. You want to prioritize minions and creatures that have
10:45
extra value out of them. Deathrattle minions are a huge benefit for you so do get those
