Hearthstone Henchmania Tavern Brawl strategy
There are different strategies to use in this Tavern Brawl as well. For example, if a player goes with Raeth Ghostsong, then it may lead to controlling the board against aggressive gameplay from Candlebeard opponents.
Meanwhile, George the Fallen's Divine Shields can be difficult to get through if they're not quickly popped using, for example, Raeth Ghostsong's hero power. As for fans of minion buffs, Sephira Dusktalon is the way to go since she has lots of small minions that can pepper in some damage.

Hearthstone players simply need to select one of these characters before jumping into the fray. There's no need to create one's own deck. This particular Tavern Brawl is also dominated with Rogue decks.
If a daily or weekly quest requires some Rogue gameplay, then players can easily get started by choosing Candlebeard, Myra Rotspring, Voodoomaster Vex, or Russell the Bard.
