  • Hi guys! I'm Jeef, previous rank 1 on both NA and EU servers and with my spare time I created a LEVELING guide that everyone of all MMR should watch! This is SUPER in depth on when exactly to level to every single tavern tier, with meta adjustments!
    00:00 Intro
    00:50 Leveling to 2
    09:51 Leveling to 3
    15:24 Leveling to 4
    20:44 Leveling to 5/6
    Thanks so much jkirek_ for editing this guide! Check him out (he's a coach)

    Just want to say, even though I play way too much BGs and this info isn't new to me, the way you present it is still very entertaining. It's clear, informative, well thought out, and you made the whole 27 minutes fly by. You have a knack for this and I look forward to seeing where your content goes.

    We're so lucky to get this instructional advice from such a top-tier player as yourself. Thanks for taking the time to make all these videos recently! I'll watch every one, and I hope this helps your channel grow as you deserve it to for the hard work and expertise poured into these.
    Thanks, Jeef!

    Been playing HS for many years and always stayed out of BGs. It’s extremely intimidating and overwhelming for a new player. It’s like you’re not even playing HS anymore. They really need a practice mode for BGs so the timer isn’t preventing you from playing around in the shop to see how things work. Thanks for posting this. It’s a lot of info to take in, it’s great to have a resource to at least start.

    I took notes so you don't have to
    -don't buy trash!
    -standard curve 2 on 2
    -jeef curve 2 on 3 (need 1 drops + coin)
    -rafam curve 2 on 4
    -always curve out shops
    tavern 3:
    -standard 3 on 5
    -don't be scared to go 3 on 3
    -3 on 4 to not buy trash
    -always think about the next turn
    -freeze 1 or 2 cost spells if ill have excess gold next turn, spending on rolling is game LOSING.
    tavern 4:
    -look at board state to determine if I should level
    -4 on 4 if my shops are too trash to buy (last case resort)
    4 on 5 if you cant double buy just level w/ 7 gold
    -4 on 6 vs 4 on 7, how many units does my board have (full = level) , leveling past turn 7 is not playing for top 4. (strong = level)
    tavern 5/6
    -not about turn # for tavern 5/6
    -can lvl as early as 5 on 7 or 5 on 12
    :what am I leveling for?
    -my board is good enough for 6
    -I want to search for 5 drop direction
    -I have pairs/elise so i can triple into 6 drops
    invalid answers
    deal 1 extra dmg, bc i can :)
    -dont lvl to 6 if i need 5 drops
    -tribe specific, eles and pirates favor high rolling on taverns 5/6
    -roll tavern 4 w/ QB/ dems
    -will I die if i level?
    -31 hp, solid tempo, direction options 5/6
    -15 hp, weak board, need stabilizing units
    -always utilize every mana crystal, don't just spend on rolls

    This completely changed the way I think about the early and mid game and my play is greatly improved after watching this video. I’m a mid player who plays once or twice a day, and I breezed from 7k - 8k after I fully grasped the meaning of some of your remarks.

    as a 25y mtg player with certain significant results over the past decade and a half, i started playing heartstone about 5 weeks ago and am mainly active in battle grounds, struggling this week to break 7k points and I found this video usefull, as most of the exceptions seemed obvious to me and several I have used, but some of the standard curve I should take notice, because I now learned I should be more firm on leveling instead of buying semi-trash or rolling to try and get non-trash.
    Also I'm kind of glad lubby is gone, because with him I often found i couldn't finish my gold/turns as to many choices aren't automatic. Also I still need to find out how to properly scale undead's and beasts because I don't know when to sell and improve on those as well as for others.

  • @finalfant111
    @finalfant111 Před 22 dny

    For anyone that wondered (he never explained further), the reason the answer to his first riddle at 1:23 about level on turn 3 and to buy then freeze on turn 1 is because of this: First, if you buy upbeat frontdrake, freeze. On turn 2, you buy the second upbeat frontdrake and buy the coin, on turn 3 you upgrade and use coin and buy another minion. You get the most bang for your buck that way. That way by the end of turn 4 you will have 4 to 6 minions with the possibility of having a triple upbeat frontdrake depending on luck.

  • @tan-wee-leong
    @tan-wee-leong Před 4 měsíci

    Nice educational video and it's good to hear from pros. Also I wanna ask everyone here, do you guys go 4 on 4 for heistbaron togwaggle to use his hero power asap next turn? I tend to do this whenever I can but wanna know what you guys think? Is the risk worth it?

    • @voidgods
      @voidgods Před 4 měsíci +1

      Let me go on a bit of a tangent here, whenever I play these hero powers I try to actively remind myself to avoid being too greedy. Togwaggle, Galagrond, Eudora, powers that have a high potential to be good but forcing them into their "best" case scenario could put you in a bad spot.
      So for Togwaggle, 4on4 to hit power on turn 5, I think only makes sense if you can freeze the current shop because it has some self-scaling potential or good sinergies, because there is always the chance you will get trash on the next shop. If you are simply "hoping" the turn 5 power will save you only to be offered more trash, without even being able to fill your board, then you are likely dead on the spot.
      Alternatively, I find it way more consistent to get a strong midgame if you hit your hero power on turn 4 (by selling some of your board for 8 gold or setting up tokens beforehand), if the shop is good or if maybe you want to fill the board for a sanddrake or whatnot. That will put you in a position to level to 3 and 4 the next 2 turns without being too behind, or even, hero power again on turn 6 (it will cost 9 at this point, depending if there are economy minions or spells on the shop you can keep the upgrades, sell everything back and still level to 4 on turn 6, AFTER using the hero power. Togwaggle is really difficult to use for a good resson, it has so many decisions to make each turn, hero power is not always the best call as tempting as it can be sometimes

      @JeefHS  Před 4 měsíci +2

      I don't think so because as I said in the video, 4 drops and 5 drops are not too gamewinning, so you lose too much tempo on average. I would only consistently do that curve with brann
