What Hero did you play today, and why did you choose it?
Chane, he’s the Hero I know how to play.

Carrion Husk. It blocks 6 and I always have access to it.
What was the best card out of your sideboard, and why?
Nullrune Robe. Let me beat Kano.
How do you feel about the state of the metagame?
Bad. Ready for a change.
Any additional comments?

What Hero did you play today, and why did you choose it?

What was the best card in your deck, and why?
Belittle. Getting red Minnowism for +3 or blue for resources is crazy good.

What Hero did you play today, and why did you choose it?
Ser Boltyn. I chose Boltyn because combo decks are fun.
What was the best card in your deck, and why?
Lumina Ascension. It’s the combo card that lets me swing for 30.
What was the best card out of your sideboard, and why?
Nullrune Hood. It lets me beat those pesky Runeblades.
How do you feel about the state of the metagame?
The meta is fairly diverse, but it’s about time for the top deck to change.
