My jaws that bite, my claws that catch*

judge

*Pushes up glasses* "The original line comes from Lewis Caroll's poem "Jabberwocky" about the hunting and slaying of a fictional beast named the Jabberwock. The card is named "Shudderwock" after this, while the battlecry line "My Jaws that bite, My Claws that catch" is a reference to the second line of the second stanza of said poem. You are both correct.'

that is imprinted in the surface of my eardrums now.

we saw this guy had hagatha in hand. he never had the time to play her. this is too much value. just remove the heal minion, zola and stonehill and put elise. and you got your infinite value.

Fidabulous your move atheists

Eric Nguyen agreed

It was the most useful to watch

i went first time dungeon run as Paladin and it was the 7th boss and i was like whaaaaaaaaaaaaa cuz i didn' damage him until he only had 1 card in his deck

*click click click click click*

can anyone link it please

haha yeah I've noticed the same thing

They are highlights, and he has been or already has traveled somewhere. Could be that the highlights may not be exactly in chronological order and showing him in the different settings where he's streamed from.

This was yesterday, about 24-25h ago at the time I'm writing this comment. I watched this game live on stream, was pretty crazy to see.

says on profile "quest mage enthusiast" probably managed to get "mage portals" working. ;D

I heard he breaks into people's houses to play Hearthstone

fuck u

@@Bunshiin no, Fuck you, leatherman

I swear, it had alot of freeze, but the part that he choked on was that he didnt even empty his hand. That would've allowed for more shudderwoks not to be burnt

Baku shudderwock is worse I've tried.

@@joeyghostx The battlecries were adding cards to his hand. Emptying his hand would be a short term solution at best.

seriously, the stonehill defender, which clogged the hand with irrelevant taunt minions, and the Zola, which filled the hand with 9 mana shudderwocks instead of 1 mana copies, were unbelievably bad choices

Sirkamilos S I am the beginning, and the end. I AM THE NEW META

all it woudlve done is delay the fatigue for his oppenent. He doesnt draw cards anyway/ends every turn with 10 cards so they just get milled.

That is true Bohne, but he was taking worse and worse fatigue damage. When he conceded, he was on 8 health and next fatigue was for 8. The Benedictus would have removed that time limit if nothing else.

No it wouldn't just delay the fatigue, it would have cancelled it, because each Shudderwock afer that would have triggered Benedictus' battlecry. So he could actually not lose after playing Benedictus...

Zola isn't bad in a shudderwok deck. The biggest hurdle to overcome is getting the combo started. Until you can guarantee yourself multiple shudderwoks, all you get is a pile of value, and nothing for it all. Zola, if used either on sudderwok or on grumble, can essentailly mitigate this problem If your hand is mostly empty when you play your first shudderwok (assuming you zola'd a grumble to get you success rate above 90%), you're still going to get a majority of 1-cost shudderwoks rather than 9-cost sudderwoks. In my opinion, many decks assume that if this occurs, they win if they have a lifedrinker in the pool. This isn't necessarily the case. With lifedrinker, dealing over 30 damage can take a few turns; several turns your opponent can kill you. The best solution that I've found to this problem is to add two kobold apprentices in your deck. That way, even if you missed a damage piece in your combo, you still have 9 damage per shudderwok, rather than the 3 that would be achieved in the unfortunate scenario that the shudderwok player only got one lifedrinker. In this situation, if you manage to play 10 shudderwoks in a turn, you output a total damage of roughly 180, rather than the 30 that might occur in other situations. Even if you only manage to play a few, the damage still stacks up fast. And although randomly splitting damage won't put it all toward face, missing lethal while killing off some scary enemy minions can make a huge difference. Anyway, this is just what I've found from playing my own shudderwok deck. I don't have the skill, dust, or time to reach legend, but the deck has been quite successful.

Sanford Bassett what about those of us who are limited to only playing three maybe four Shudderwock a turn due to gaming hardware limitations?

Rob Tol'vir I'm not sure what you mean. If you're saying that the animation takes too long, you can play more shudderwoks from you hand, even if the animation is still going on. Playing 10 would be difficult if your pool of battlecries was very large, but if you ignore unnecessary battlecries like ice shard, it doesn't take nearly as long.

Sanford Bassett I am saying. That due to my phone being terrible. If I play five or more Shudderwock in a turn. I miss out on most of usually all my following turn.

Rob Tol'vir Ah, that makes sense. It's a shame that shudderwok is restrictive for such an arbitrary and seemingly unnecessary reason, but it is what it is.

Saed B Cruz Reyes what rank are you

Agreed

Shuddersucks shaman are brain dead decks xD

lieeeessss *goes cries in a corner*

Im just a rank 13 atm, but what I meant was that as a Shudderwock player, that person made way too many mistakes. Once you have the first 1-cost shudderwock you just keep resummoning it until kills your opponent, plus the fact that he had a battlecry that produced another taunt creature in his hand seemed like a pretty bad choice. Imo Shudderwock had the game won but didn't play appropriately.

the shudderwock files

Those should be channels were shudderwock OTKs are discussed I personally like shuddercharge

don't care cause Amara got 2x battle cry ! so 40hp to 15hp to 40 again ;)

oh, right...

what about amara amara alex?

Or Amara, Alex, Shadowreaper.

But he did do that? That's how he was drawing them at the end

Santiago Borao even when strong its the most boring combo deck ive ever played. more boring than quest mage and that says something.

Ictus i guess its just not one of your favourite archetype. I really like Combo decks like otk priest, quest mage and shudderwock shaman.

for me shudderwock is really funny, but i build a deck in which i am able to deal 15 dmg with a single shudderwock. that because i cannot grumble it

Ultimate Infestationiro Kripperino i love combo decks. inner fire priest being one of my all time favs, and i play it pretry much any time the meta allows. but its not boring. shidderwock is boring. your plays leading up to the combo arr boring, and the combo itself is even more boring.

Play him in a Yogg deck and you’ll make him worthy of being played

Riccardo Dell'Orto I made the mistake of DEing grumble I'm rank 20 and don't have grumble.

They did this since Yogg Saron to nerf it, so for long battlecries like that that's how it works, the same for Tess Greymane.
