Bamboozle next level strats! Also How to Lose Friends & Alienate People guide step by step

Turns out Starhorn is preeeeeeeeety good.

Bamboozled again

Here’s the deck:


Bamboozle
The obvious combo here is Quillbeast and Blood Rage. But, what most people doesn’t know (or maybe just I didn’t know that) is that damage from Quillbeast is dealt first then the buff is applied. So for 8 mana we have 1 trigger from BBS and then second one from Blood Rage itself, so 3+1+4 mana and the damage buff formula is:
[double the number of minions on board (+Quillbeast of course)] + [2*every friendly minion and your general that can attack].
Of course if you happen to have more mana/cheap spells numbers can go way higher. Usually it clears the board and leaves something like 10/10 on the board. 4 mana 10 damage? Seems legit. But against swarm tactics? One shot one kill. Oh and with Flash same combo costs 6 mana and deals 1 more damage so yeeeeah.
It’s not really an aggro deck, you should control the early game and drop a couple of high health minions on the board and finish the game with your combo.

set-up
Terradon is your main Blood Rage target. It usually survives a couple of turns and is just an amazing tempo play.

Zyx is a tricky one but for 1 mana it can add up to 4 damage to your Blood Rage.

Celebrant: turn 2 Lavaslasher going first? Hell yeah. It also enables combo earlier.

Diretide Frenzy: removal, Quill enabler, Blood Rage multiplier.

Amplification: better than Greater Fortitude since most of the time everything will be damaged, also +4 health on Quill is amazing.

I don’t have Twin Fang, but I don’t think It’s essential for this deck. Even if you menage to somehow not draw Blood Rage, the board clear from Qillbeast and tempo swings from Lavaslasher and Makantor should be enough.

I think the rest of the cards are self-explanatory. You don’t really need Grandmaster but I like him as a secondary win-con.

Btw it was tested in high bronze - low silver he he. Might not be a good laddering deck.

People should read forums :slight_smile:

Starhorn thread is prob more relevant :P, it has the same quote to.

Anyways, thanks for sharing, I dont think nwardezir was trying to be rude, just trying to share some relevant info.

And nha combo starhorn./vaath are considered top tier right now:

Yeah but it’s 4d old, your Vaath one is 12 days :slight_smile:

Don’t worry, @kvewgir won’t mind, he’s just a bit disconnected with Duelyst as a Gwent pro-player :wink:
