Is the Worst Hero in Hearthstone’s Twist Mode Actually Playable Now?

what up Chompers today we're delving into twist and playing kathon the new kathon with 80 health so kathon was the worst deck in Twist from the start but they just buffed it in a major way it jumped from like 45 Health to 80 health and I wanted to see if it's playable and what do you know I won my first game with it against alakir of all heroes which is a really good hero and I got really excited but guess what it was all a mirage this deck is no good very bad it sucks even at 80 health I went one in five with this deck and honestly it felt so bad that I just stopped playing it it really is that bad when you get to your first Mulligan you'll probably think WTF because you'll see frostwolf kennels and bees and it'll just seem like this disassociated grab bag of random stuff but you'll quickly realize that this is sort of in a way the ultimate token deck see it makes sense that this is a token deck because your passive is that kathon grows plus one plus one for every two Minions that die so you want to be generating a lot of tokens and true to form this deck possesses a lot of token generators from Druid Warlock and Shaman as you play though you'll you'll also realize that it's a lot of token generator but no token payoffs darkshire councilman which has never been a good card believe me I've tried it is the best you've got as a token payoff I don't know why they didn't dip into demon Hunter's token cards because this deck is crying out for wrath scale Naga it would be great to have some way of leveraging your tokens dealing damage to the board or face chipping down your opponent clearing the board something it needs something but alas this deck has nothing to leverage tokens other than cathon itself most of your cards generate small value minions 1 ones two tws so you're laying out these Boards of tiny minions and hoping they can measure up against the huge Minions that your opponent is pumping out and of course they can't so what are you really relying on in this deck the removal and the hero power now the removal in this deck is pretty spotty trial vi5 is the best you've got but swipe grimoire of sacrifice they only deal two and one to the board so you're really not chewing through big boards with this deck and remember this is a Highlander deck so you're going to be less likely to draw any one removal card that you need when you need it so what are you left with you're left with the hero power which is one Mana discover a cathon follower but don't look now kathon followers suck it's a pretty big pool there's a lot of variants the best hard removal is seven Mana blade of cathon it's a rogue card you don't even main deck it so you're just hopeless against a giant long story short this deck is terrible and it won't get better until they change the passive to buff kathon for every one minion that dies Mulligan guide coming up next so the Mulligan for this deck doesn't really matter because you're going to lose anyway but you generally want your early game you want your One Drops you want Cactus construct Forest seedlings Wicked shipment and then for two drops I would say mining casualties is a keep but throw everything else away what you want to do is start pumping out tokens so you can buff cathon and get cathon to a size suitable enough so that it destroys your opponent game play coming up nextus good girl my dreaming ends your nightmare begins okay this is Joe Joe this is already a weird deck um I guess I keep I mean in a druid in a in a in a Tre and deck you keep plot of sin let's try it has at least 10 attack gain plus five Health what just [Music] happened why did I go up to 80 Health time hold on um loot hoarder all right kathon 80 health I'm Googling it twist 80 health [Music] I guess I just want to thinking play a lot of minions to buff up kathon hey give me that cuz there's no airf flow why cuz my parents never put the air conditioning [Music] the I'm not sure they'll allow it yes all right he's going face because he's intimidated by my 80 health I guess I draw a card hey give me that maybe I I've already got one of [Music] these ancient Shield Bearer maybe mind if I roll [Music] me I can um combo dark Shire councilman and wicked shipment next I have like basically no spells in hand so glowly swarm sucks but that's [Music] good [Music] huh what does this do gain plus five health so my cathon doesn't have enough so I need to just keep buffing up my kathon this is like a shitty play but not right it's a shitty play okay he's going to play one of his big tainted Remnant it's not a um okay I can plot of sin next turn and Thorn growth [Music] centries okay oh oh chaotic [Music] consumption uh I would destroy that seven for he can just wind Fury into that Frost bites sharper than okay you can freeze one of my 55es [Music] oh you built this for me oh flipper friends that's a great [Music] draw was s in the chair you're in currently please don't burst my bubble [Music] [Music] I just want to do this this done by the element M mhm I just feel good that he didn't let's see if we can get that oh well we can still discover yeah blade of cathon that's what I'm looking for your minion you are weak hang on it's a rocky ride is close [Music] I think I just twin emperor vecor in mining casualties I think you just play on curve begin cun is almost it's going to be lethal soon he's going to play a big guy again oh no Sandstorm Elemental oh sure um my kathon is 27 so we need only four on the board I guess we discover U I'm not going to do any [Music] healing I think I just play Twilight Elder because like do you hear it cold I protect closely I did Twilight because the one that he can just kill the one that Buffs when things die first and he won't do anything okay that's strong [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] I just take that because it's is my I there's a lot of healing in kathon cards no longer still a [Music] death all right do I have Lea yet [Music] no can I survive another turn he's got [Music] 74 19 21 let's see what we get uh think we can keep stalling [Music] and that Baron gedon is going to keep knocking off the Divine Shields oh that's strong I might need to play my right I think I need to play [Music] my cathon now my dream ends your nightmare begins [Music] [Applause] katun versus Rafal you you are just in time to witness the culmination of my genius my dreaming ends your nightmare begins glowfly storm sucks in this deck if you discovered spells not minions it would be much better we hunger for venance [Music] okay I don't know I'm sort of picking a path between Cactus construct and then playing the two drop next turn or Wicked Shipman Trader make your ch I don't think Shader is a particularly powerful play um I will do bone flinger for the beauty of synergy of the undead death there we go my bone flinger is active in my Folly I am so chaos okay dream cards this will never be active again actually no I don't [Music] think imps are not Undead are they they're demons bees is good earlier game removal and it's also like one of my best activators for cathon maybe I coin out two two drops haunted creeper and [Music] Shader okay he just floated two [Music] Mana I am manaless weird that he just said I am manaless when he had one Mana left I mean I have the power that's pretty good I can bees that yeah [Music] your this deck has no draw so I'm thinking like Wicked shipment might be it's also something I can combo with chaotic [Music] consumption when I need to so maybe I do hit the hero power um nothing's going to get healed anytime soon maybe just dark ercoa I don't have coins so I can't coin that out but one image [Music] [Music] oh I can't wait to get into bed and read tonight it's my favorite time of day our gift of the the arcade enlightens us [Music] okay nothing he's done has been particularly powerful but I have a time is running out I have a pretty underpowered next oh mining casualties is good so maybe I just hero power maybe I play this or maybe I play maybe I play Oh Usher of souls cost four oh you know what I'm going to do this get in line and then kill these off your deck betrays you your deck betrays [Music] you do he even have any nature spells what does this do discover a spell from your opponent's class that costs three or less there going to be a lot of nature spells in there I cut myself today and I don't want to get it on the bed spread because I already did a little and I'm going to get in trouble [Music] [Music] I could chaotic consumption that 55 time is running out yeah I think well I could dark Shire councilman mining casualties and then chaotic consumption one of the mining casualties I could just play the six drop what does that do gets me armor I don't really need that I'm not going to play the bone flinger I could play the dark eroa but I think clearing up that 55 is nice and I get two deaths out of it one by one yeah it was definitely a nice turn what is this called keeper of souls Usher of souls it's putting in work right now now I can play veor next turn if that feels good and big in that'll be annoying that's annoying I'm that's also annoying so he can kill the 3 five I guess what's he going to kill oh he's going to kill the four five time is running [Music] out okay I definitely don't need Twilight dark mender right [Music] now oh you know what this isn't Undead make your choice but I can't get it [Music] out maybe there's a cheaper minion I can discover cuz I'm thinking I kill off this Undead guy and then I bone flinger the 26 but I need to proc okan first so maybe there's like a two Mana yeah two Mana so this procs okani oh but if I proc okani I don't even need to kill I don't even need to kill okani all right so this goes into this I guess this goes into this one by one and there was just no reason to keep the wicked shipment in hand okay he's getting a lot of Buffs whatever this is is going to be [Music] big yeah it's a 99 do boom huh [Music] Doom collar is a cool card I wonder what um class that was contemplation I guess I'm going to go for another Usher of soul and play veor the Feast of souls [Applause] begins yeah and it's any minion it's not just friendly minions that's [Music] nice okay I like that shall [Music] h i kind of want a plague of sins [Music] this it's not time to play cunat although we are up to 3030 that's not bad we do have a little time because he hasn't damaged us at all plague of flames not plague of sins so I can play plot of sin and kill two minions make your choice or I could just plot of sin an ancient Shield Bearer is beding I think I ancient Shield Bearer this turn I don't know just Mana efficiency I guess why not who knows what Secrets will uncover okay okay [Music] time is running out that doesn't help me at [Music] all the Ancient One [Music] I might get a token generator next turn so do I save plague of flames I mean it's only killing one it might kill this three [Music] one think we [Music] wait for a master tactician this is not just getting decimated by a random pile of legendaries [Music] [Applause] [Music] is not really a token generator I mean it is but it's really [Music] slow I've got a cathon but it's not going to do enough enough maybe I plague of flames first and then kathon because I don't want to kill off my kathon okay that was a little my dreaming end you're right there I mean if you can't kill it I win but okay the end of he can do better than kill it he can take control of it hope is an illusion sweet and he's even got dragons in his deck to draw and I'm just left with the most random pile of this deck is unplayable this deck is unplayable at 80 Health it's unplayable goodbye Slumber more yeah that's how I feel I feel like I just resolved into a goo for
