Hearthstone High Justice Grimstone

This deck is leaning waaaay to much on lucky draws. Also I have yet to see Grimstone summoning deathwing after 30 tries.

Really? The odds that he draws Deathwing and plays it are like really high.

I just played the stupidest game ever against the Dark Iron Arena Heroic. I tried something inspired by your mage freeze deck, except I miss all the epic and legendary cards. I compensated with what I had, to see if it was promising. After a couple of loss, I started a game with a Frost Nova and a Mirror Entity. First turn I played nothing, the AI played King Mukly. Second turn I played an Explosive Sheep, the AI played Lorewalker Cho, and this marked the end of the game. From this point on, I would play my Frost Nova every turn, which would get copied to the AI's hand, which he would also play every turn. I got lucky that he only played minions that didn't affect the board (no Ragnaros or Baron Geddon for example), because it allowed me to simply lock the game like this until the end. To finish him off, I simply killed Cho with my hero power (it took 4 turns) before playing my last Frost Nova. He was not able to freeze my minions during his turn, and I finished him with a 23/23 Ethereal Arcanist.
Like I said, stupid game. I was extremely lucky (it's probably impossible to reproduce), but it was fun. :p

I agree. This deck relies so much on luck. And with the many decks that I've tried against Grimstone I've never seen him play Deathwing yet.

Interesting, I've always gotten Deathwing. In any case, you can play around Deathwing and play as if he didn't have it.

Lol, nice! You have weird situations that happen with the Mage deck we have up on the website for Grimstone. If he plays Millhouse Manastorm after turn 7 and you have Archmage Antonidas and Fireball in your hand, you get infinite damage from the free Fireballs and you just one-shoot him tongue.png

I literally created a account just to post this...

 

Millhouse Manastorm from High Justice > On my turn, Antonidas summon, cast 1 spell, and chain fireballs for a kill(they cost 0 mana). Was amazing.

It would have to be really lucky game though, because, from what I've noticed when I rushed him, it seems that His Justice plays always the most expensive minion in his hand. That means he must not have any minion that cost 3 to 7 mana at that turn...

But when it happens, it's nice look and I enjoy that by killing all minions on board before finally finishing my opponent. xD

 

Millhouse happened to me at Mage class challenge, causing in turn 5 quite interesting switch of tides xD

This is the cheapest deck I beat Heroic High Justice Grimstone (Dark Iron Arena) with.

Naxx Mage (0 Dust)
Difficulty: medium (may take up to 10 tries)
Inspiration:



2x Elven Archer
2x Goldshire Footman
2x Mirror Image
2x Frostbolt
2x Frostwolf Grunt
2x Kobold Geomancer
2x Murloc Tidehunter
2x Frost Nova
2x Razorfen Hunter
2x Dragonling Mechanic
2x Fireball
2x Polymorph
2x Water Elemental
2x Frostwolf Warlord
1x Flamestrike
1x Kel'Thuzad

Grimstone's deck is similarly threatening as Coren's, but he does not give you a random minion every turn. This makes it even harder to come up with an effective cheap deck.
The goal of this deck is to fight hard for board control: Stall, freeze and try to survive until turn 9 to play Kel'Thuzad and a taunt. Tinkmaster Overspark and Deathwing are the only possible counters to this strategy.
Use Kobold Geomancer to buff your removal spells.

 

Cheerio,

Bob

Another good deck is warrior combined with whirlwind, execute, grim patrons with warsong commander, you can easily duplicate against the 1/1's while taking out the most dangerous guys with execute.

if u have sylvanas u must put her in the deck :) , just stole deathwing. :) 
Not hard to steal him since he remains the only minion on the board. 
And if u have kt and syl on board u can take some more minions with syl resurrecting :)

      Hearthstone is taking a bold step into the StarCraft universe with "Heroes of StarCraft: The Great Dark Beyond," a 49-card mini-set launching in January 2025.
      Featuring iconic factions like Zerg, Protoss, and Terran, complete with legendary leaders Sarah Kerrigan, Artanis, Jim Raynor, this set blends StarCraft nostalgia with Hearthstone's gameplay.
      Additionally, Arena Mode is getting a massive overhaul, introducing shorter Normal Arena runs and a high-stakes Underground Arena with a game matching "re-draft on loss" mechanic, giving you the option to re-draft cards, edit your deck, and keep your run alive, after you lose.
      The year ahead promises 3 expansions, including the Emerald Dream's battle between Old Gods and Druids, a return to Un'Goro Crater, and a Chromie-led journey through alternate realities.

      Hearthstone: Heroes of StarCraft – The Great Dark Beyond Mini-Set  
      Early next year, Hearthstone is going beyond Warcraft and into... Heroes of StarCraft! This special Mini-Set will have a whopping 49 new cards across three themed factions, which show what the StarCraft universe would look like in the Hearthstone Tavern. Each faction is made up of cards that can be used across multiple classes, including an iconic Hero card. 
       Zerg 
      Death Knight, Demon Hunter, Hunter, and Warlock have joined the Zerg! Led by the formidable  Sarah Kerrigan, they will have aggressive cards that win the game by swarming the board. 
       Protoss 
      Druid, Mage, Priest, and Rogue fight for the Protoss Empire. Led by the High Templar Artanis, they will have powerful, high-cost cards that are made cheaper throughout the game. 
       Terran 
      Paladin, Shaman, and Warrior make up the Terran forces, led by the one and only Jim Raynor. They will command Battlecruisers—a special take on the Starship mechanic from The Great Dark Beyond. 
      The Mini-Set will feature a slew of StarCraft units which are sure to invoke nostalgia, as well as the Terran-armored Murloc, Grunty, and new, thematic music. You can chart a course for the Heroes of StarCraft Mini-Set, launching in January 2025! More announcements, details, and card reveals are coming closer to launch. 
       Major Arena Updates 
      Then, for the first time in 10 years, Arena Mode is getting a major overhaul. With that update, there will be two kinds of Arena to choose from. Normal Arena will be shorter form, allowing you to complete your runs more quickly. Competitive Arena players will be able to play in the higher-stakes Underground Arena, with longer runs and a new feature: Re-Draft on Loss. Re-Draft on Loss means that, after you lose, you’ll have the option to re-draft cards, edit your deck, and keep your run alive. 
      Ratings will also be added to both Normal and Underground Arena. Normal, skill-based matchmaking will be used for Normal Arena. Underground Arena throws caution to the wind and lets you face off against opponents of all skill levels. 
      This major Arena revamp is coming in the first half of next year. Look out for more details about this update closer to when it goes live. 
      A Preview of the Year Ahead: The Year of the Raptor!
      On top of those updates, Hearthstone has an exciting year of expansions ahead, with much-requested themes, locations, and familiar faces across Azeroth. 
      In the first expansion of the year, enter the Emerald Dream and join the battle between the Old Gods and the Druids of the Emerald Dream for the fate of the World Tree. Things will heat up even more when the Druids of the Flame light up the Mini-Set (releasing earlier than normal this year, during the 32.2 Patch). 
      The second expansion of the year will be Hearthstone’s first-ever sequel: the return to Un’Goro Crater! Join Elise on a hunt for a mythical, lost Tortollan city. When you find it, join the Tortollans in a festival to celebrate the mighty dinosaurs of the crater in the 33.4 Mini-Set. 
      In the third expansion of the year, travel with Chromie through alternate realities to recruit Legendary Warcraft heroes like you’ve never seen them before. Leading to the 34.4 Mini-Set: an epic showdown against Murozond at the end of time!
