League of Explorers: Heroic Giantfin

Hey everybody, League of Explorers Heroic Week 3 and this time we still have a bit of

work to do, working our way backwards. We're in the Ruined City wing and it's going to be Giantfin, looks like a murloc on roids

or something. The deck we have for today is a Freeze Mage variation, a lot of spells, a lot of board

control there. Reason being that Giantfin is literally playing a murloc something

So let's just check our spells here. Take the Flamewaker because Flamewaker is always handy

His hero power is he gets to draw 2 cards a turn so if we can just control the board

and maintain some sense of control he'll eventually run out of cards except he also has 46 cards

in his deck. So that might take a bit of time. We've got a Flamestriker in our hand at least, that's always helpful

And Mage hero power with the pinging and all that stuff, that's going to come in handy too. Hopefully

That's what we're going to need to do

Always go after these Grimscales if you can or the Tidecallers as well because those things

can be a little painful. So we're going to go do that

We can afford to take a few hits for now. Except there's Murkai

Yep, we're going to play Pyromancer and Frostbolt

Should kill everything except for the Tidecaller. Health's dipping a little bit lower right now than I'd like but I can't really be helped

that much. Are you kidding me? Wow, where's that Blizzard when I need it? Okay

If I play the Flamewaker and Ice Lance something... I should have cleared most of them I imagine

Yeah, see that? It's going to die anyways. Okay, that sort of worked

Flamestrike's going to have to go to work here pretty soon. Or I can see if I can get luck with the Flamewakers

Although I think a Flamestrike is something I need to do right now

Oh man, that thing looks awfully painful. We, however, are going to go with a Flamestrike

This sets us up for a Blizzard followed by a Hero Power the next turn just in case

All right. Okay

Now we definitely need to use a Blizzard. We have to kill the Warleader first. So

Yeah, best way to do that is... Blizzard and then... Whatever

Yeah, like that. Puddle Stomper

Oh, it's Seer. Okay. Hmm

Well, we can play the Flamewaker and Blizzard. Excellent

Excellent, excellent, excellent. Flamewaker is on the board and some spells in hand would be great, but we're starting to run out of spells here

So we have to get a little lucky. Man, those Seers, though

Okay, what can we do here? Oh, just what we need. Okay

So second Flamestrike. Perfect control

We should start thinking of a lethal. Six damage to him. Six plus five is two

We have lethal right now, as a matter of fact. So we're just going to go ahead and take care of business right now

Oh, something's going to be great, too. And that's World of Giant King
