Can't deny, that play around the Sea Giant was mind boggling for me

[oneorfivee]

"#5: Never Concede" which ends in a concede

[BeautifulMagical]

Great video, but I think the first clip shows what is wrong with hearthstone right now. For Rogue to be able to do so much damage from hand goes against the "fun and interactive" mantra often quoted by the devs.

On clip 5 Viper missed lethal : if he trades the imp before attacking, it was a 100%, because squire would had 3
health and not dying to explosive trap

[peshomighty]

Step 1 bloodlust windfury
Step 2 win!

[thesuperboss]

WOW number 2 blows my mind. I would never do that but it just goes to show how much they run into the same decks

[ChartreuseBlue]

This game constantly makes me think its rigged🙄

[vojtechbauer]

Hunterace is the most lucky player I have ever seen. He has won the championship purely because of Hagatha's random cards.

Bonus tip: Don’t misplay by playing right into Explosive Trap, like Viper did in the last clip.

If he had tested for other secrets first, by trading the Witchwood Imp into the Henchclan Burglar before playing other minions, he would have had lethal.

oo rouge made game breaking plays i am so surprised xd

[rozioaudi]

I bet the reason IGN is showing so many Hearthstone vids is because blizzard is struggling to get more players. Which is why they would have to make so many pro players move on thus game.

[XXROGUE]

Can you believe that rooster played a Kalonian Twingrove with half his mana tapped?

[tomofthepops]

Guy in the thumbnail looks like John Oliver lol

[jingtroc]

5 netdeck plays from the championship that all netdeckers which is about 99% of the player base do exactly the same depending on who is lucky enough to draw the cards needed from the deck first.

Netdeckstone, you all are champions technically if you all play the same netdecks that carry your tiny brains through the ranks

[pekdomonkos]

2:38 lighting bolt the 0/2 egg and play the scheme. ?

[stancui]

5 competitive pro plays out of which one is with a burn deck with the best hand and the other 3 are heavily decided by rng. That's exactly why this game is a joke.

[AndreyUrman]

A World Championship of a game that is 80% based on RNG - Okay.

[thetasworld]

That last clip is why heartstone is such a bad game
