Silly Garrosh, don't you know you have to PAY 2 WIN?

which is why most deck and have a destruction cards like execute and the chance for a deck to have those destruction card alones is higher than the perfect 4 cards combo.
Just think, it could have been a 36/36 if you used two Power Word: Shields on it before the Divine Spirits and Inner Fire; of course, the joke would be ruined, but a 36/36 IS a 36/36, after all.

So, if the orc still beat it.... would that mean that he won the Superbowl?
HearthstoneNow, not getting jokes.
Of course i'm just fooling around but hey, if people cry just about anything i'd thought maybe i'd give it a try, lol.
This is actually a really bad idea, especially due to the current silence heavy meta in non-meta decks. If you silence that combo, thats 3/4 for 1, and that can even become 5 or even more if that silence minion survive the turn.
[url=#user_comment_349368]@zitro[/url]: Also is good for warlock to play cards as fast as possible, so cards like soulfire and doomguard will not burn cards. It's too easy to play and hard to play versus, so that's why people doesn't like that deck.
[url=#user_comment_349368]@zitro[/url]: amm, no. It's more like value deck, mages and rogues use it. Zoo is when you're trying to summon as many minions as possible, and mostly rushing enemy hero. Warlocks can "tap" extra card for 2hp, so they can restore cards way faster.
Engie coming back anytime soon?
TF2 seems like it's kind of been abandoned, including the girl's traits as classes.
Also, what happened to sniper-tan?
And Medic.
And Mini-medic.
And heavy.
And Pyro.
And Pyro Jr.
Honestly, I feel like the comic's drifting a bit far away from it's roots...

[url=#user_comment_349364]@MrIczer[/url]: in that case, the strip would show a ludicrous flood of Lorewalker Cho-born spells.
(gotta love Randuin Wrynn, seriously)
[url=#user_comment_349343]@SleepyV[/url]: No the joke is the second pic being hindsight.

[url=#user_comment_349337]@zitro[/url]: None of your zoo description, apart from the buffing, fits to the heathstone zoo or the MTG zoo where it came from.
A zoo deck is a deck that plays cheap aggro minions, often buffing those already in play, to out-tempo the opponent. It works through super efficient trades and board control.
7 mana and 4 card combo. Sad, but too slow and too many ways to counter that. Meanwhile Garrosh easily can have more than 40 hp on turn 7. It's painful to be a Priest. Rogues have a lot of cheap spells and Conceal at least.
[url=#user_comment_349344]@Vinven[/url]: Oh he probably didn't lose yet, after all it's ONLY 20 health and every player has 30. He might still be alive, just with a MASSIVE broken jaw.
[url=#user_comment_349340]@Narf[/url]: Except the warrior didn't have any minions, and execute was not one of his cards in his hands. So he couldn't do that play, and as such got hit by the lightwell and lost.

The joke would kinda make more sense if you switched the first and second panel, imo.
[url=#user_comment_349337]@zitro[/url]: Thank you, that explains a lot.

But since the Lightwell card had no charge, the warrior simply tapped it with some unimportant creature of his and then played execute, killing the Lightwell before it could do anything.

[url=#user_comment_349337]@zitro[/url]: Doesn't have charge, however. So it couldn't attack despite what todays strip claims.
The Lightwell "bowl" has good health (5) but no attack, and it heals one of your minions every turn. Divine Spirit doubles health, Inner Fire makes a minion's attack equal to it's health. So you double the health twice to get to 20, and then make it's attack match it's health, for massive damage.

[url=#user_comment_349330]@vonBoomslang[/url]: It's Lightwell (see first bubble), a minion with 0 attack, 5 hp, heals a random ally by 3 at the start of your turn. The priest then plays Devine Spirit (double the hp) twice, then Inner fire (sets attack to the same value as health). It couldn't attack, tho as it was just summoned.
Zoo is a deck where you rely on a minion that lets you draw a card whenever you summon another minion. Typically, the other cards summon other minions or buff the ones already in play. Then there's another card that gives them all charge, which allows them all to attack immediately.

[url=#user_comment_349330]@vonBoomslang[/url]: The bowl is a card called "Lightwell". Basically what is happening is a priest is buffing the bowl/lightwell with defensive buffs, then using a card that makes the attack of the lightwell the same as the defensive stat (so if it had like 20 defense, now it also has 20 attack).
So, I know that a "Zoo" is a highly popular and powerful Heartstone deck, but could somebody explain to me A: How it works B: Why "Zoo" and C: What's with the bowl?
