Hungry Crab is a darkhorse arena tech {kappa}. Approximately 50% of people play paladin, and you know they're going to have at least one Murloc Knight.
 
New adventure called League of Explorer.

Launching this month.

ETA: going live Thursday.
 
Meant to post my totem shaman recently...it's not the greatest deck in the world but it can get me up to around 11 (at least in the past couple months it has been stable at that rank alongside my priest):

Earth Shock x2
Rockbiter Weapon x2
Zombie Chow
Flametongue Totem x2
Haunted Creeper x2
Totem Golem x2
Healing Wave
Hex x2
Lightning Strom x2
Mana Tide Totem
Tuskarr Totemic x2
Defender of Argus x2
Piloted Shredder
Azure Drake x2
Thunder Bluff Valiant x2
Fire Elemental x2
Dr. Boom
Al'Akir the Windlord
 
I would love to hear some feedback from people on the deck - it is good against aggro decks with a good draw (especially compared to the control priest I generally run lol) and it has firepower at the back end of the deck for lethal.
 
Obviously not taking the Footman. The first pick was recruiter right?

I like both of the other two cards, with some value potentially had with the brewmaster but I think you have to take the annoy-o-tron. You can potentially get other mechs since this is the second turn and getting him down early in the game is a great way to go two for one to snag the tempo.
 
Brewmaster, for sure. He has good stats (unlike the first two) for its cost, can trade much more effectively, and has a potentially useful battle-cry.
 
Yes, first pick was recruiter. I'm leaning annoy-o-tron too. could potentially pick up the powermace.
 
I'm a fan of picking the best card on paper in the first ten rounds or so, then reevaluating, considering curve, and existing synergy.

I think it's risky to pick something with a reason being: because I could get this future synergy. Picking based on what you have is generally more solid.

Competition format

The 11 entrants will play a 10 match round-robin tournament to determine the OGboards Champion.

After all competitors have played their 10 matches, the poster with the best overall match record will be crowned champion. In the case of a tie, the best overall record (by percentage) in all games played will determine the winner. If two entrants remain tied, then the head-to-head result will determine the champion.

Each match will be a best-of-five game series using the conquest format. Participants should prepare three decks (with three different classes) for the entire competition. The deck classes should be PMed to Allen Covert (a neutral, third party) before the tournament starts. After all 11 groups are submitted, then they will be posted to the thread. Changing your decklist after the tournament has started is prohibited.

Each best-of-five game series should be played in one challenge session if at all possible. Naturally, you will need to friend all of your opponents, as well. Afterward, please report the result to the thread (ex. Entrant A won 3-1 or Entrant B won 3-2).

Schedule

All matches will be completed by Friday, December 4th at 10pm EST. It is up to each pair of competitors to friend each other and find a mutual time to complete their match within the specified week.

By Monday, November 9th at 10pm EST: Submit three classes to Allen Covert
Week 1: Two Match Dates (1, 2) to be completed by Friday, November 13th at 10pm EST
Week 2: Three Match Dates (3, 4, 5) to be completed by Friday, November 20th at 10pm EST

Miscellaneous Guidelines
-You may spectate other competitive games, but any entrant reserves the right to boot you from watching and you should refrain from table talk.
-It’s on everyone to practice sportsmanlike conduct (not changing your decks, intentionally losing, having friends help while spectating, BMing etc.). This is just for fun, after all.

Next Steps

Before the competition can begin, a few steps:

1) Everyone needs to review and affirm these guidelines.
2) Everyone needs to friend/add everyone else.
3) Everyone needs to PM their three classes to Allen Covert by Monday, November 9th at 10pm EST at the latest (Note: Mech is not a class).
