This week tavern brawl

What the hell am I playing now? So I pick one card and then I watch an auto-battler scr…w up the game?

I have hated some tavern brawls in the past, but this one takes the crown…

Edit: so the autobattler casted a spell, so Varden got burnt, then kept casting spells on targets in a way, that are absolutely ridiculous. I should get 100 packs just for watching that horror…

If this is an experiment with AI then it is a clear failure. The AI decides things worse than you can even imagine. It’s kind of hilarious after a while. Priests frequently buff enemy minions before attacking into them.

I did not find it hilarious at all. I turned the game on for a quick TB to get some relax after working on some papers - and when I realised what it was about, I got frustrated very very quickly…

And you are right! The AI plays extraordinarily badly. Real pain to just watch it and WASTE time at the same time =(

Yes. That. And I have a good imagination.

Finished my first Brawl pretty quickly in a mirror match against Hunter.
It felt pretty easy to win, but I’m sure that depends on the class you pick. Because Hunter just has direct enemy damage, self-buffs, summons and card draw.

I lost my hunter match. Round two - I had a 12/11 1 mana minion in my hand (2 +5/+5 treasures) on turn two. AI decided to use the hero power. I lost three turns later.

AI played the Rifle and chose “play a minion” secret against a spell mage. I almost got a heart attack from that game.

It’s a terrible brawl imo but I’m fine with them trying new crazy stuff as it’s more likely I’ll come back and replay it. Repeating the same tired stuff is just gona have me show up for my 1 pack and leave. This missed wildly because of how bad the AI is (even though I won pretty easily in a Shaman mirror) but I appreciate the effort to mix it up.

Has anyone ever won with Priest I just tried and it just heals and buffs enemy minions every time if you get to turn 7 it will buff your enemies with the +4 / +7 summon elek it did this 3 times with me. It also heals enemy hero for 2 when there are discounted board clears in the deck that cost 1 mana. At least the mage has some semblance of coherent play. It’s like they didn’t even try with priest winning with priest is almost impossible. But I’m a sucker for trying the impossible.

I do understand being a sucker for pain, but I would at least expect some active participation in that. It is like those totally stupid heroic Mercenaries bounties - I try them over and over again, but at least I decide things actively.

This TB is only about which bot makes worse decisions and we just sit and watch.

Just f… it - this is level of BS this game has become

Worst tavern ever. This is the type on sht that makes me want to unninstall… Dont bring this pos tavern back.
I have 10 cards on hand, and the ai decides to end turn with 4 mana left and 3-4 minions that i can place … Got a full board rdy to attack, enemy hero is 4 hp, and AI decides to evolve minions and heal the enemy hero … GG Blizzard, you show how much you care for community when you implement strategies to AI created by the autistic kid of the worst dev you got.

Im not often one that writes on the forum. But this brawl is the worst that have happend in Bliz since Thorgast! F-

I could not answer sooner - I got banned for apparently “foul language”. Which is completely deserved when talking about that TB and also Diablo in Duels.
