Yeah, it's very good that Hearthstone lacks any interaction on your opponents turn what so ever. How dare MTG and YGO giving their players ways to counter opponents plays.

Nah it ruined the game, protects were fine but interruptions turned the game into 1 turn games where either you negated all your opponents cards turn 1 or they produced a board that negated all cards you played, not healthy at all. To prove how crap gameplay became I ran a zombie lock deck that locked my opponent out of playing monsters needless to say I saw many people scoop before it became their turn.

@@greedy4063 Objection being in standard absolutely felt like playing against a Mono Blue deck at times tho... i once played SIX Objections and three counterspells in a deck specifically built around discovering spells and secrets... it was disgusting, people conceded to me before they were even close to losing >:)

Absolutely disgusting for sure. I would have been so tilted facing that.

I was there live for the paladin fail, and us chatters saw that shit coming from miles away and he still fucked up so confidently. Best moment of this challenge haha.

Mark is the John Wick of hearthstone OTK's. You can give that man a piece of chewing gum and 2 uno cards and he'll figure out a way to kill you in one turn.

Listen, I need a compilation of what we saw in that stream of rarren losing his mind for every class. Especially with the line "KZreads only gonna see the win"

Mechathun my beloved happy to see you again my dear old friend.

Rarran, have you not been watching Mark in your free time? He's played everything so much that he played a deck today of even Priest with triple Quests in the ETC pool. Lol

Mark honestly is one my favorite hearthstone creators, he always does what i thought i could do never is really mad besides when the opponent goes to rope every turn but who wouldn’t be.

Ah, remember the good Ole days when Mecha'thun was so popular that Toast was able to use it as the win condition without putting it in his deck? Great times.

Mark is literally the mvp for this...

the consolidated marktent in this one, would love to see you and mark make a video together at some point, mark is super entertaining

I discovered Mark like 2 weeks ago because I kept getting him recommended cuz of watching you and ngl watched so many of his videos.

"is mark insane?" yes, rarran. yes.

Every one in a while Old Rarry throw a Yugi-reference in commentary and i'm here for it

lmao the first think i thought when i saw the intro of the video was MarkMckz already did this, but at least you did some different strats :D as always great video rarran

Watching him mess up the combos a bunch was also super fun we should get the outtake vid

Random dude: "Let's play a wild!" Rarran with his fuqqing druid deck: "ehehehe"

rarran, when you upload it makes my day. I watch your videos every night to fall asleep, the fact you are so entertaining and upbeat adds so much to the nostalgia and excitement I have towards HS. I started playing the game in 2015 when I was just 15 years old, I remember going to cologne gamescon that year with my dad and not being allowed to preview any of the games other than HS because of the age restrictions. We just queue'd up over and over again to play against each other. It means a lot to me to have the opportunity to feel that same way whenever you upload your silly little vids. :)

glad mark is getting some recognition, hes the fucking combo wizard

Wait, Rarran doesn't know about Mark?! He is like the most famous combo master in hearthstone

I saw myself in the chat and remembered how I was losing my calm watching you playing. Keep up the good work !❤

Great video as always. I can propose I'd like you to see the Hakkar challenge. The card has great flavour that was not explored very much.

can't help but see the raging demon in the mechathun win animation

Shattershambler is kinda iffy because Secret Passage helps massively cut down on tediousness for emptying hand post Myra's, but you can rarely do that if mecha'thun dies immediately when played. Serrated Tooth, Wild Pyromancer, or broomstick helps with that problem, though it thankfully worked out anyways

God, that Mechathun Priest deck is such a me deck I want to install Hearthstone just for it

Fun video, but I kinda wish he had played the old Mechathun priest from when the card first came out, with Hemet Jungle Hunter and the ticking abominations that blew themselves up. One of the weirdest, coolest combos from back in the day.

Yes, Mark is very much insane. Just today, he made a video on Even Triple Quest Priest. It is as insane as it sounds and he managed to win a game.

I think something worth mentioning as a once Control Warrior main, is Fibonacci had a deck that was destroying ladder where he just ran this as a 10/10 with rush (rush being from the Dr. Boom hero since it's a mech). It was a legitimately good inclusion in the meta at the time, and he even managed to win some otherwise lost games by triggering it successfully with shield slam or execute as his last card. I truly adore this card, my claim to fame is i had a pretty long stint (entirety of darkmoon faire and barrens) where Mechathun Warlock wasn't meta where I was probably the post prolific and high ranked Mechathun player in wild. I was getting a few hundred games a month on Mechathun Warlock when it was c tier

I love this challenge, cordon bleu cooking here, it's also obscure enough that nobody knows whats going on

My second time ever hitting legend was with control warrior. Most people ran Archivist Elysiana to win the control matchup but I ran Mechathun instead. In the control matchup you always had a ton of armor so I added in one Galvanizer and saved a shield slam for the otk.

Really great video

My priest mechathun deck used plagues, pyshic screams, and all that stuff to constantly wipe the board with some early cards to keep myself alive so I could hemet my entire deck. Then there was this deathrattle combo you could do once you had it, which were all above hemet's deck destruction that cost 10 mana exactly that summoned then killed mecha'thun. So you just had to survive to turn 5 and you basically won if the opponent didn't have lethal in hand.

It's funny that Rarran didn't believe in priest, considering there was a really good tier 1 or 2 deck during Boomsday where MechCthun was the win condition. That's the last expansion I played this god forsaken game, but this video makes me want to go back and play that deck.

Heaps of freebies for returning players. Mechathun is only playable in wild and some decks in that mode are super aggressive. Certainly fun to pull it off when it works. I love playing the game, most fun though is playing against friends. They can borrow your deck or you can borrow theirs.

@@TheWarick Yeah maybe a year and a half ago I tried again, right before Nathria came out. I got a free druid deck which was cool but I wasn't impressed with too much so I uninstalled the same day. I've been playing LoR recently, but since that game is winding down updates I've been considering trying Hearthstone again. It's just a tough pill to swallow going from a game where you can get 100% of the collection as a FTP player in maybe 6 months of casual play versus Hearthstone where if you want a full collection or even just several competitive decks, you need to shell out.

My mom recently asked me why I was dressed as a Canadian card game variety streamer in a Chinese takeout container. I told her I was Rarran To-Go.

similar to the magic card 'the cheese stands alone' and 'barren glory'

You are the best hs streamer so far. Love ur content.

ngl i would love for you to do a collab with mark playing dumb combos

I would love Mechathun to be back in the core set, building crazy wonky decks to try and win with it was such a fun part of my hearthstone experience

what was that noise 6:11 Rarren 🤣

Omg Rarran found the broken Mechathun glitch. Lol

The audio jungle bit was fucking genius..

Cactus Rager + Volcanomancy + hero power is a cute combo. Lol

the editor going "audiojungle" made me laugh so hard

Damn Kripp your APM has gotten a lot better! Nice to see the Battlegrounds paying off

Thank you for sacrificing your sanity for our sake.

I recall using Hemet to quickly trigger mechathuns effect. Did something change?

"When your opponent plays cards, it's just not fun anymore." - Rarran, 2024 Spoken like a true combo player. XD

15:00 so you aren't going to worry about it but your next class is the worrier? huh

Myra's is a trap in Mechathun rogue. So is Hemet. I play a version of mechathun rogue in wild, and it's pretty alright. It's definitely capable of climbing at chicken rank, that's for sure. Myra's is simply too slow. Rogue has plenty of other draw engines that are much faster, and much more reliable than trying to luck into a specific spell. The trick is knowing that you can go wide on the board and clear out your board using ticking abomination. Anka, Mechathun, Shattershambler, abomination is the combo. It's just a 4 card 8 mana combo to win, and you can play whatever else you want in your deck, minus anything that doesn't 100% die to abomination. Rogue has so many crazy draw engines that you can basically do whatever else you want with your deck. Because you plan to play 26 cards in your deck before the combo, you have plenty of resources to fight for board and deal with pressure. As long as your draw engine is strong enough, you can fight for board while drawing your entire deck and executing your combo on turn 7. Wild is crazy like that. I personally settled on Field Contact to power cycle through my entire deck and have a ton of flexibility in countering other decks. There are so many dirt cheap battlecry minions that you can swap out to tailor your deck against a specific meta. Add in Octobot (ping it yourself) to reduce your entire hand to almost zero, and the only real challenge is playing your cards fast enough and calculating your draws so you don't mill yourself to death while executing your combo. It's an incredibly challenging deck to play, in the same way that legacy oil rogue deck was balanced on a knife's edge of viability, but it's very fun deck to play. I can reliably execute the combo on turn 7-8, and it's theoretically possible to play the combo on turn 6 if you get perfect draws. It's still slower than mine rogue on average, but I have multiple anti-combo tools that allow me to fight other combo decks in a different way. Also, I love that Rarran ran into the mechathun bug. Blizzard hasn't fixed it in multiple months. I've been annoyed by this bug for months now. It even happens on mobile. Hopefully this video grabs someone's attention at Blizzard.

Hi rarran! I have seen this card game called "beneath oresa" wich looks pretty interesting and i am sure it will make for good content because the game has nice animations and its pretty fun to watch. Its kinda like slay the spire but with a Knight that has a big ass sword that swings and hits every time you attack lmao

i miss my priest mechathun otk was fun

Nicely done Rarran! *points gun* Now win with all classes using Uther of the Ebon Blade.

that druid deck was the closest experience to yugioh gameplay that I've seen in a while

10:08 lmao

Was that, turn 3 mechathun lethal? In the 2nd game?

If animation lock wasnt a thing it would be much easier to pull this off, especially with priest.

Priest, warlock, and warrior were the ones i found the easiest back in the day. Warlock was good enough back then but it got its bloom nerfed. Priest drew crazy but needed a reckless exp, coffin crasher, double ticking abom and mechathun himself in that order. Warrior used boomship, malygos and double whirlwind (somehow).

did you bleep out your swear with *AUDIO JUNGLE*??? that is a new one XD

I will not stand for this warlock and rogue mecha thun slander, turn 4 cataclysm was crazy

cactus rager volcanomancy is actually so 5head

Priest literally has a mechathun deck ages ago with nemet

I though you'd go for Pyromancer + Hunter's mark for hunter

I found the mecha mage in diamond 5 😂

Why would you do the priest again?!? 😂

in wild i met a guy with meca tune but i forgot what he had exactly he had like bees that attacks a minion you droped, he droped something and he had like 2k armor on him and he fatigue me as his second win condition he try the meca thun but i put cards in his deck, with that deck i'm pretty sure the win rate it's 100%

Was it not better to use LPG for mage?

Another way for mage could have been Lunas pocket galaxy.

As someone who grinded for 90% of all the heroes to 30. I'd love to see Merceneries come back if they gave everyone lvl 30s.

I miss the timer

U should learn the utopia deck in yu gi oh its a xyz beat down simple but flashy and pretty consistent winner

get mark to do you know hearthstone, he otked with every card in game

why didn't he use luna's pocket galaxy in his mage run?

Didn't priest have a competitve mecha thun deck at the time

I loved mecha'thun warlock The old version was played with zuljin and cataclysm. Shame they had to nerf cataclysm because of discard warlock.. good times

Mark is Insane and Genius!!!!!!!!

l stole a Priest's Mecha Thun with Theothar, gotta say, it's satisfying steal from a class that steals everything from you

Shaman Mechathun is actually not bad. The decklist you have is pretty outdated, instead of all 1 cost spells, you run a deck similar to Wild frog shaman. You use the card Spirit of the Frog to draw through your entire deck while keeping your opponent at bay, to then do the combo. Even at Wild standards, I’d say it’s tier 3, maybe even tier 2 (low key coping)

Oh hi Mark... Mark putting Rarran to shame

As a mechathun rogue player in wild seeing your list hurts 🤓😢

The hunter opponent nickname is Taran Coincidence?

You may notice alot of the opponents hover your face when their turn is over for 0 reason, these are very likely bots, they are running more streamlined decks now so its harder to tell but I can assure you 70% of those weren't real people, even in wild its a problem :/ Edit: Another thing they do is read every single card you play, and concede the turn they spot lethal on board, but first play out their cards

Lunas portal. Duh 20:34 change cost of all minions in your deck to 1

yes

The opponents probably have zero idea what kills them because some are more than likely new players

yugioh with joshua schmidt? :)

Yes yes it can

The only thing crazy about it is how they decided it would be a good idea to simulate the experience of trying to play a game with a younger sibling that doesn't get the rules of the game, loses stupendously, fits and howls bloody murder about how it's not fair and they won, and as the older sibling you just give up and tell them they won to get them to stop crying. With zero intention to ever play with them again. Fuck Mecha'thun.

Wtf does mint condition mean in relation to a digital card that cannot age or show any ware and tear?

When your opponent plays cards its not fun anymore? This is a card game what else they gonna do

10:00 To be honest, I also concede when some priest does BS like this against me. Yeah I know, you were playing a cool deck, but fk it, I'll just go play another game where I actually get to play my cards and my opponent plays an interactive deck.

Nazmani, Clergy, Radiant Elemental Whirlpool and fill the deck with draw minions spells and a bunch of 0-1cost heals much easier deck. Roffle and Mark made videos about the imo the better version of this deck if anyone want to try it very fun to otk turn 5
