How to deal with Dawn's wrath

[Lunar Wolf]

Maybe I dont know how to play against the highest teir control mage, but when I get a board to beat down.... Dawn's wrath, undying dragon, atromancer. There goes the game.
How do I play around this monstrocity of a deck, that runs 2 to 3 dawn's wraths?

Dont play all your creatures in one lane, you should be able to smell it, much like an unstoppable rage

Do you mean Azura's wrath, or am I just not remembering the card you refering to?

I think Bethesda should put trap cards in the next update, secret supports that trigger under special conditions (cancel the next 5+ mana action your opponent plays). Of course, something that destroys supports could destroy the trap before it triggers. Best would be if they were all neutral cards and had the same mana cost, so they could not be guessed by cost and class.

Considerering this is already a feature in hearthstone, if Direwolf added this the "copy-cat" out cry would be beyond anything we've seen yet.

I dont have much ccg or tcg experience, but dont yu gi oh have the same thing aswell?

Traps are very common amongst many card games. Though if they do, I hope they are neutral, for the sake of better customization and uniquness, and a small debuff for running them. [Cunning Ally has less chance to trigger. Also to make your opponent guess, rather than know an absolute what it is. Of course of meta with x deck will be established, but if you switch it up, they played for the wrong trap....]

Ya, I should spread out more,I just have to find more ways of dealing with guards, or some devastating lethal or warded creature.

[happy]

as said above, you can smell it coming.

You will eventually with a little more experience.

Yeah, buddy, Yellow control decks often use guards to try and force you into playing cards in the opposite lane, then they Dawn's Wrath you.

As everyone else has stated already, you can smell it a mile away. You can tell that they're trying to bait you to play all creatures in the lane that has no, or the least of their creatures, so they can wrath it.

Even then, if they aren't forcing you to play in one lane, you shouldn't play all cards in a single lane, try and split them up, 2 in field, 2 in shadow, something like that, so they have to choose which one to Wrath, never fill up a lane versus Yellow decks unless you know they aren't running Wrath, or if they've used them all up.

Easier said than done, I know. But the way it seems, MOST yellow control decks only run 2 Dawn's, so if you see 2 in the graveyard, it's safe to say they don't have anymore, so I would say take the risk, otherwise, split up your creatures.

Ya, the struggle. I should really just pay more attention

It's almost the same skill when looking for Unstoppable Rage being set up. Also tkeep an eye out for an Ice Storm set up, those are a bit different but can be pretty devastating.

*But, you can dump some creatures into one lane early game, when they dont have magicka for dawns
