Never shared anything from arena before, but have to share this deck

** The deck: http://imgur.com/R85ewz8,I5CkAgz **

** The choices: http://imgur.com/ccpth6j,VIMmuMw **

I use Heartharena after I draft my decks to see how I scored, so I'll go over a few of the "wrong" choices and why I picked them.

Cult Master vs Boulderfist Ogre - I didn't have any late game cards yet and I hate relying on having a board to draw from Cult master. I also didn't know how well my early game would curve.

Clockwork Gnome vs Acolyte of Pain - I really wanted a 1 drop and spare parts can win games (which it has, mainly from the freeze spare part). I also really hate a 1/3 body in arena.

Guardian of Kings vs Solemn Vigil - I've never used Solemn Vigil and I wanted another late game card. Also the heal is very helpful vs Mages who might be relying on a Fireball lethal or similar situation.

Loot Hoarder vs Ooze - This was a really hard choice for me, but I went with the card draw here. A 3/2 body could provide a lot more value, especially if Loot Hoarder is faced with a 2/3. Also, removing a weapon could really change games around however, I find more value in Loot Hoarder.

Quartermaster vs Avenging Wrath - I had a Muster for Battle so this was a fairly easy choice for me. Quartermaster can usually always get at least some value. Even if you buff one dude, that's a 4/7 for 5 mana.

Leper Gnome vs Light's Justice - Ew.

Truesilver #2 vs Zombie Chow - I already had 6 1 and 2 drops, so I went with the Truesilver here. Zombie Chow is amazing though.

Truesilver #3 vs Dark Iron Dwarf - Another hard choice, but I went with the Truesilver as I hate relying on having a board.

Currently 3-0, very easy games.

Great deck and it can definitely go 12, but a lack of aoe, or reactionary cards in general will make the later games very difficult.

very nice deck
i'd have taken cult master any day over boulderfist in an early paladin draft tho, it seems they have lowered his rating
i dont like leper gnome but light's justice is not that good either so...

when you lose, you need to take a short break because the game doesnt realise you lost
for example : you're 5-0, you lose a game -> the game still think you're 5-0 instead of 5-1 so you face better decks/opponents than you should
i'm not 100% sure about this but i've seen some people talking about it

anyway, it's not a bad thing to wait a bit and try to understand which plays you should have made better instead of blaming the luck or anything like that :p

Currently 7-1
Lost to a mage who had an extremely ridiculous start.

I've found that AoE has not been an issue, I usually out value then so much or push for lethal with Blessings/True silver. Besides, I think Consecration is extremely subpar and one of the worst AoE spells in the game.

Most games have been complete domination due to the Blessings/Truesilver. Also having a lot of cards with 5 health has been causing mage issues.
