What the fuck is this guys problem with freeze mage and miracle rogue.

Freeze mage solely exists to punish specific metas like recently it could be used to counter zoo or midrange shaman. In the world where freeze mage becomes popular, control warrior waits to fuck it up.

Holy shit half these ''''''''questions'''''''' are pr talk defending blizz, like fuck off

Daily reminder that Ben Brode said that Freeze Mage and Miracle Rogue are the cancer killing HS.

They tackled the big uncomfortable questions: whether they're gonna rotate more classic cards and the fact that the game will be getting more expensive with three xpacs a year. Sadly, the answer was a big fuck you for both.

>>169009908
He's right about Freeze Mage.

>>169009885
Obvious PR move, nothing more. Even talking how they want HS to be a legitimate F2P game was nothing but empty words.

>>169011006
*DisguisedToast stole that deck from reddit

>>169011118
who did reddit steal it from?

I just realized 477 is broken as shit not because of the scenario that you draw and play him on 4 but because you can do all kind of shit in a turn and drop a random ass 7/7 just because

You could potentially clear the board with lightning storm, kill something & summon a jade golem and drop a 7/7 all in the same turn
sure you're overloaded but that's retarded tempo

Playing it on turn 4 is basically gambling

>>169010850

Having you be unable to drop below rank 5 does nothing to solve problems in ranked play.

You get rank 5 literally by winning like 10 games in a row. 5 to legend can either be impossible or require an absurd amount of games depending on your skill or luck.

That's it folks.
Control=Reno.
Good devs.

>>169011186
Don't forget you can elemental destruction with a Thalnos or spell totem to wipe the board, drop 4 7/7 and a free 5/5 Thing From Below, which is always cheap or free since you can use floated mana for a hero power or play shit like mana tide or flame tongue during the preceding turns

So you can wipe a board and drop 12/12 in stats for 7-9 mana.

Not necessarily. Nerds give only dust for the nerfed card, while a nerf can kill a whole deck archetype, meaning you lose more cards but don't get the full dust back.

Rogue is basically dead with the next expansion and you get 80 dust back. Fantastic. 2 Prep? Useless when the class is unplayable.

>>169013254
>some players want to have fun is a bad argument when there's no mode in the game that let's you play against people with the same mindset
Technically that'd be tavern brawl, but even then many people just use it to farm gold.

It's also pointless when the "fun" cards are just rificulously overpriced in terms of rarity.

>>169013090
have you seen firebat casting NA vs CN though?
he had the decklists in a googledrive or something and just opened that up on screen in between/before matches and browsed them some and talked about what he saw as interesting, that was really cool
i dont know how the games are gonna play out right so at least knowing that a player is playing like X meme with Y meme combo will be fun to look out for and see if he can make it happen, browsing the deck with the viewer would prepare them even better for this. gets them more inside the game i think it can be fun that way
if the decklists are gonna be private and you want some sort of like snipe protecting i guess that would be ok, just a different angle of where you place value on

Hey guys, I missed the stream. The game's gonna be fun now though, right?

>>169013212
I don't think so
I brought murlock warlock, aggro freeze mage and aggro dragon warrior
all of those are aggro decks but aggro dragon warrior was practically unheard of back then, aggro freeze mage has never been anything but a meme even though it saw some play in karazhan and the murlock was a shitty homebrew murloc deck

these were still reasonably strong decks, all of them very aggressive and indeed did win me the tournament but it wasn't just tier 1 netdecks or netdecks at all really

>>169013649
There are no cards tied to the single player mode. Card rewards, as in packs will probably happen, but not specific cards.

Hearthstone itself isn't there, its usually some other company hosting a tournament. Last year it was Geico or some shit. Not making this up. The casters weren't even there, but the players were.

>>169015517
Yeah but mailing to EU takes thousands of shekels so it would just be money for them unless a yuroanon wants to make a meme prize somehow

Is there an official date one when you have to craft the Hall of Fame Classic cards?

No, he sits near her though. Although he will soon be moving to the features team which is next to benny b

>>169018173
are you implying you dont play egg druid with innervate? are you insane? It's the best druid class card, period.

I wouldn't say druid is unplayable without it, but every single druid deck is weaker without innervate.

>>169019043
only worthwhile thing they mentioned was an arena blog coming out next week talking about their plans for it. other than that, combo is getting cucked and rogue is going to be the next dumpster class

Beast Hunter working pretty well at rank 14 lads.

Hunters are back!

>>169019435
I notice this too, is it because noobs actually spend money on the game maybe?

>>169019435

I can see why people would think adding 5 legos to their deck would be a good thing.

this game hasn't been about actually playing the game rather than just somehow managing to survive since a year

Thanks for all the support today /hsg/.

Why so many twitch streamers recently put their chat into followers only mode

>>169019435
literally the only way for low level players to actually get to play legendaries

>>169020081
twitch is getting a lot of bots

imagine buying a prebuilt deck with 2 legendaries and 6+ epics for 5 bucks
shadowverse does it

>someone picked a hot girl as avatar for me
Well thx I guess

>>169020150
In Shadowverse you need three copies of a single legendary.

>>169020173
>she

>>169020150

What, netdecking isn't enough for you?

If you could buy individual goods cards then nobody would buy packs.

>>169020352
in elder scrolls legends the rares are epics and the epics are legendaries and the legendaries are called unique legendaries.

Just died turn 4 against druid.

>>169021247
its very fun in the beginning, but can become frustrating later on when you start playing against people with a large collection that play the best decks they found on the internet. then you start seeing the same things over and over, which many people dislike. just stick mostly to casual when you're just starting out, ranked gets really difficult for noobs after rank 20

Madam 'Cuckya

Even in a weapon buff deck Blade flurry is shit, LIke a full deck dedicated to one card is still shit why are they allowed to just remove a fucking card from the game

>>169023047
28 packs is like 2800 dust if you dusted 100% of the cards. Why do you have so little dust and gold?

>>169023203
I already had dust available, and I dusted only copies found in the packs. Also I did this yesterday so thats why I'm broke today.

>>169023312
If you had the dust available why the fuck did you spend your gold buffer on packs you retard.

they should've made the nerf either a non face change or a 4 mana change, both was just silly.

t. everyone player that doesn't spend 300+ per expansion when the second expansion of the year of the mammoth rolls around and they opened all the packs they were able to save up

i fucking hate building reno decks. why must every non aggro deck be reno? why must mage/priest/warloc my 3 favourite classes have a nonduplicate legendary so fucking good it's retarded not to run it?

>>169024745
Show us your golden legendary collection

Here I'll just take every interesting answer from the Twitch stream.

Q:First question from forums: when will classic cards be rotated to hall of fame? When are nerfs?
A: Nerfs end of the month; hall of fame rotation with expansion release.

>Gotta wait months to actually use all that dust

Q: Dust refund for Hall of Fame, can you double dip and DE after?
A: Yes, but you shouldn't because wild will be way better.

Q: Will hall of fame cards be obtainable from packs?
A: Wild only, not from packs, only crafting.

A: no heroics this year, and first xpac will not have missions. 2nd xpac this year will have missions, goal is to make them more challenging overall

A: a lot of the changes are really exciting, but some players feel negative about rotation because they don't feel we're supporting wild enough. we've failed to support it before, talking about how to do better going forward

>Was I really alone in expecting nothing from Wild?

Q: rogue class identity?

A: we have some good ideas. rogue players like their bag of tricks, we're experimenting with deathrattle and stealth. tricks are still their identity going forward but pick pocket-type cards are something we're looking at too...we're also keeping an eye on Druid.

Q: buffing cards?
A: we buff cards by making new ones, new interactions

Q: Reno Jackson?
A: healing is really important, and armor. we don't really want healing in neutral, like healbot was being used in every class. we want powerful healing cards, but want them to be class specific. you'll see more of those in the future

Really excited about the content we have for this year. Arena blog coming out this week discussing changes SOON (tm).

Been lacking on small quality of life stuff. Focusing more on that this year instead of big monolithic stuff.

--END OF TRANSCRIPT--

Shitty Q&A aside, what's the best program for Arena draft assistance? HDT plugin or Overwolf?

>>169024885
"Double dip" doesn't mean what you think it means

pirate warrior is viable. and dragon priest is decent as well. you are talking out of your ass.

>>169027561
To me a tribe deck is a deck that has cards that have synergies with each other, pirate warrior is full of non pirate face damage cards and dragon priest is more of a discover deck.

>>169028229
pirate warrior literally shares half of the cards with your epic pirate rogue. But somehow, pirate warrior is not a real tribal deck. Why? Because it's a good deck?

And calling dragon priest a "discover deck" and not a tribal deck is the most inane bullshit I have ever heard. It has 4 discover cards, but more than 16 dragon or dragon related cards.
