Today's 'Hearthstone' Brawl is Chess From the 'Karazhan' Adventure
This week's Hearthstone [Free] Brawl will look very familiar to those who played the One Night in Karazhan Adventure since it's pretty much a repeat of the Chess encounter from The Parlor wing. If you haven't played that encounter, each player has 10 health and a 1-mana Hero Power that lets you move a minion to the left. This is an important power to have since this Brawl is all about minion positioning. Your deck has minions such as 1-mana White Pawns that deal 1 damage, 3-mana White Bishops that restore 2 health to adjacent minions, 4-cost 4/3 White Knights that have charge, 3-cost 2/6 White Rooks that deal 2 damage, and a 7-cost 4/3 White Queen that deals 4 damage.
The trick in this Brawl, though, is that all the minions (minus the Knight) auto attack the minions across. If a minion is positioned in between two opposing minions, then it attacks both of those. You can only hit face if there are no minions across from your minions. Fancy a match, friend" The Tavern Brawl is now open! pic.twitter.com/J0fJco7ITz
