Sometimes there is justice. For a “Bad Mannered” play in Hearthstone, there is an appropriate punishment.
Hearthstone is not exactly known for all matches being particularly fair. At its core, Hearthstone is, like all card games, dependent on a large portion of luck. However, through the player’s skill, this can be minimized, and those who best “master” the RNG will emerge victorious from many matches.
Yet even if you are the better player, some matches simply refuse to be won. How frustrating it is when your opponent revels in their victory, spams emotes, and shows off what they have in their hand. These plays are “Bad Mannered” that every player has experienced.
But sometimes, this backfires – and it’s very satisfying to witness!
The streamer SaveFile17 has essentially lost the match against the Paladin. A comeback seems impossible, and after just a few moments, it is clear: the opponent “Omegatron” could finish the game and win.
But then what must happen, happens: Omegatron attacks and brings SaveFile17 down to one health point. In an attempt to show off and demonstrate how confident he is in his victory, he plays Deathwing. Deathwing has a terrifying stat line of 12/12 and destroys all other minions on the field, but also discards the owner’s hand.
What the Paladin did not consider: through the deathrattle effect of a minion, SaveFile17 received another minion – and this one had Poison as an attribute, which means it could directly kill Deathwing.
The end of the story is easy to imagine: SaveFile17 achieves victory and is as happy as a clam. There is indeed justice on the internet. Sometimes it only appears when you don’t hit “Concede” early and just let the opponent do their thing.
Do you often deal with players who behave so badly? Or do you do it yourself? Let us know in the comments!
Have you seen that Death Knights have been banned from the Hearthstone Arena?
