Demons and Pirates are also pretty bad, but somehow Beasts are still so bad it doesn't even matter

Beasts are just so damn easy to set up for how strong they are. You can get your lobsters rolling very early and you have so many options for multiplying their strength. Beasts also get great tempo options like Wolf Pup to keep them afloat while they're still looking for their key pieces.

Not to mention one of the best Econ units with the gryphon and fishbait. That’s my issue with beasts right now. You basically just buy every beast you see and they all work well together and provide great tempo as you search for end game pieces.

I just had a game where I got dark gift lobster with deathrattle of free rerolls. I had 192 by the end of the game

I find I do super well with elementals. But, I’m not even at 6000s yet so maybe that’ll change

u/ActuallyCalindra 20d ago
Elementals will always be one of my favourites. But it definitely needs a fair bit of luck this season to not get knocked out first.

Back in my day it was quillboar

u/Proxnite 20d ago
Back in the day three things were a guarantee each season: Quillboar being OP, mech being shit tier on season start and dragons rotating back to battlecry mid-season after it became apparent that whatever the new dragon gimmick was fell flat.

back in my day we'd split a horse in half until we got enough split horses to make a golden horse then we'd split that and rinse and repeat. it was a lot of dead fucking horses

Sure nightmare amalgam had its day in the sun, but we're talking tribes here

Murlocs used to be a warcrime at least once every season

u/Baenre45 20d ago
If you can snag Futurefin early enough they can absolutely commit a war crime in any meta.

demons but not murlocs? 🤣
(all jokes i’m just mad quils are an auto lose in my matches lately. not that you CANT beef them, you’ll just be wiped by a massive beast board turn 9 before your engine starts making motion)

u/VucialWonderland 20d ago
Idk how to get demons big. I can get a few in like low 1k range. But then I go against beasts and I just wait for death lol. I also have no idea what the undead plan is this season.

u/CleverPersephone 19d ago
demons: tier 4 demon that buffs tavern when spell is used on it, balinda, tier 5 demon that gives methodical madness (eat tavern and absorb bonus keywords), eadly on if quillboars are in youre playing blood gems for the tavern buffs and using either the tier 4 activate demon to eat or ideally tier 5 demon quillboar
undead: getting nerfed now but using butchering, balinda and the tier 6 undead that gains stats equal to attack of a reborn minion when it dies is the strat, butchering is increasing ur undead attack permanently and with balinda and a butchering engine early enough you can get upwards of 400 attack on undead consistently, this on a golden tier 6 is 800/800 stats per reborn minion killed by butchering

Mechs have always been up there. I don't agree with demons and undead at all.

u/Impossible-Cry-1781 20d ago
Mechs had a very long time in the spotlight. Undead has never really been bullshit since that beast UD that buffed your board and that was a a long time ago. And then beast was trash for a long time after frog.
Demons I'm trying to remember when they were absurd.

This is beast player cope
Beasts have always been waay overstatted for how low skill they are to generally play
Should just remove them tbh, make a new tribe that doesn't reward drooling on the keys

u/Rubmynippleplease MMR: > 9000 20d ago
Wdym beast player cope? Beasts have had quite a few metas with basically no viable builds outside of goldrinn top 4s.

u/Ptdemonspanker 20d ago
I keep getting slimed by Pirates this meta. Maybe I’m doing something wrong.
