I've been playing warrior a lot and I really like it since I have an ancient shieldbearer. how does this rogue deck look?
>>
>>169457214
that's not a 4chan board anon, try again
>>
>>169457640
In my opinion one Doomcaller is enough, I'd get one Crazed Worshipper instead. Also Skeram Cultist is not that good so try to replace it something else.
>>
>>169457640
here's the warrior deck that I've been using. The last cards are 2 doomcallers and cthun
>>
>>169457640
Too top heavy. Remove some of the doomcallers and get some more of disciple of cthun and maybe remove the twilight geomancer. Taunt is useless on cthun because you should be using it to win with the battlecry
>>
>>169456796
In this meta, Druid. Warrior used to be the best, but now lategame focused warrior decks are meme tier.
>>
>>169457640

Drop a Doomcaller, and once you have a bit of dust, drop the Skeram Cultist and craft a Blade of C'thun. Blade in particular is your money card against control decks, which is when C'thun himself tends to shine.
>>
>>169456525
He has invested too much in Eternal to let Gwent win.
>>
>>169457840
Sadly I don't have a worshipper. it looks like a fun card though for priest since you can keep healing it

I'll need to craft another disciple since I only have one

Sadly, until such time that STB gets nerfed, Geomancer won't really slow down a pirate deck all that much.

Another Jade Shiruken would probably be better.

If you want better taunts, just throw in a senjin shieldmasta or two.

I'm fucking done with Hearthstone.

What online card game isn't pure cancer?

Shadowverse gets viraled so hard. I don't trust games that are viraled harder than Borderlands was in 2009. Ropecoach says Gwent is skill-based right?

Whatever I decide on, I'd be playing as f2p for a while. Maybe shelling out 20 bucks if
I decide I like it.

To be clear, I care about as little RNG bullshit as possible. I don't care about flashy grafics and big anime tiddies. I want A GOOD VIDEO GAME TO PLAY.

What do you think about this deck? Too greedy? So far I've been able to activate Drakonid battlecry almost every game, so I don't think this deck needs more dragons.

try faeria, it's f2p on steam and has a bunch of interesting mechanics and little rng. i haven't played it competitively much but what little i have played was charming and quite engaging.

Also I'm trying to figure if include a Doomsayer, and switch one Azure Drake for a Twilight Drake because sometimes I got my hand full and it could make it really big.

made him want to quit? Maybe you shouldn't get bailed out on draws and almost win with this level of play?

Telling him to play Go is like telling him to play Go Fuck Yourself. There are a LOT of better games than this piece of shit and there is no belief a patch can make it get better because its fundamentally broken as an eSport.

He and Frodan are both just dickriders who need this to put food on their table. I wish Lifecoach all the best to find a better game and succeed at it, a game for men.

>>169460298
It'll still save your face from 7 points of damage (more if he has to overkill it), so not exactly useless

The post is devoid of any message. It's like someone who read about what trolling was on a wikipedia article and tries it for the first time.

Unless in that 7 points of damage (one turn) I draw Reno or a complete clear, yeah it's useless. Even more useless if I get killed from hand.

I'm pretty sure that almost everybody has decided on which game they want to play next, but they are just hanging around to see if the next expansion miraculously manages to save this sinking ship.

There are few others out there, and none of them are necessarily "better" than hearthstone.

-Shadowverse is probably the most polished of them all. It has some fairly interesting differences from hearthstone, most notably the evolve mechanic, but it's similar. Interesting campaign for basic cards, you can "reroll" the 30 or so packs they give you to start off with until you roll good cards and multiple legendaries

-ESL is pure cancer and should be avoided at all costs

-Gwent is still in closed beta, I've only played in Witcher 3 but the basic mechanic of the game is you have rows of different troops (close combat, long range, siege) that interact with other cards in that row and battles accordingly with your opponents rows, then the respective row scores are added up. Pretty neat, idk how f2p real game will be

-Konami just released Duel Links, a highly curated yugioh format with a hero-esque character system. Decks are 20 cards each instead of traditional 40, and it's pretty damn fun. I'm only like silver but it doesn't seem too hard to be f2p, lots of singleplayer content and anime voiceovers

-duelyst is a bit of a more strategic and less poker-y CCG if you want to look up what it's about, I've heard similar things about the magic-esque HEX

I don't know anything about faeria, eternal, cart hunter, etc. but there's definitely more to check out, but that's my experience if you wanna try something different for a bit
>>
>>169464786
No expansion will save the game. Blizzard needs to swallow their pride and make regular buffs/nerds akin to League to keep the meta fresh.

Instead they have this fucking retarded system where if a card is cancer we're all just supposed to deal with it for months on end until it "rotates out" and everyone gives Blizzard money for the new broken cards.

I would just cut the secret agent and double down with the n'zoth archetype, you're trying to do both at once and it doesn't help.
+2 doomsayers, +1/2 holy nova, maybe infested taurens or senjin shieldmastas, rag over ysera, and probably a bit more I can't think of.

Shadowverse has one of Japan's biggest gaming companies backing and is taking off locally, and gwent is certainly going to pull in nostalgia from True Gamers that like the witcher for a good while, if longevity was stopping you

Yeah, gotta rely on Blizzards RNG for them card draws! Playing Auctioneer would involve weakening your deck with cheap spells, saving up those spells instead of just playing them when you draw them, playing those spells in the right order, and executing your big draw round under time pressure.
That's all way too complicated and skill based. And Rogue needs to die anyway, right? Just make it another aggro class, who gives a shit.

Like I said. Fuck off, Ben.

You are aware they specifically said during the hall of fame announcement that they were going to keep auctioneer around for your stated reasons, and it's just stupid anons who hate rogue and fun who are dissenting?

>We considered promoting Gadgetzan Auctioneer to Wild instead, but in the end we decided to move Conceal because Auctioneer has proven to be one of the most skill testing cards in the game. We think the power level of Auctioneer decreases with this change, and games where Auctioneer is played will be a bit more interactive.

>We fucking hate Auctioneer but we can't remove him because you idiots would riot. We already increased the mana cost so we can't do that again. Should have made him 11 mana the first time. Instead we cripple him in different ways. Making him unstealthable is just the first step.
>>
>>169468471
did you even look at the deck? It's like an anti-zoo that's filled with lower heals, taunts, and board clear instead of burn and tempo minions. You don't have to have 15 Timmy cards in your deck to make it defensive or "control", it's an anti-aggro deck that is void of greed to the point of having no threats against control, like taunt warrior

honestly auctioneer was busted at 5 mana and it's totally fine now, so it's whatever, they eventually changed it and will eventually change STB soon. I don't think they are actively trying to inhibit competitive decks or meme combo decks alike right now, they just fucked up the balancing and pirates/Reno happen to be OP archetypes people absolutely hate losing to, perhaps less so than say patrons in the past. having every hero be viable is next to impossible, but I guess taking out the Rich Boys might make room to help raise the weaklings

>>169472087

>>
>>169472087
See, I'm actually at a bit of a conundrum right now.

Velka's unsportsmanlike conduct is enough to kick him out imo. However that's all up to the thread, really.

So choose Velka's fate, /hsg/. Does he keep playing as per the norm of the tourney, or is he a douchenozzle that doesn't deserve the 20 Blizzbucks and the attention?
>>
>people bringing up Lifecoach quitting as if it's some sort of big important thing
In his vlog where he states hes going to stop laddering, he defends charge creatures, direct damage, and big combos

Face Hunter, Giants Mage, and Patron were all cancer
>>
Reminder that with 2 hours of free botting a day you get 150 f2p packs per set.
>>
>>169472317
What did Velka do? Just use non-meme decks? Isn't that what the bans are for? People just need to choose better bans instead.
>>
>>169472317
I don't think he deserves to get banned. The deck with all the big guys were pretty meme-y, and "BM" in hearthstone is as far as I'm concerned a meme.

And as >>169472432 said, I think it's up to bans/you to steer the tournament in a more non-meta direction. You can't punish the players for playing optimally.
>>

>>169472778
What experience is being ruined exactly? The massive amounts of bot have never left ladder since 2014, people just stopped noticing them in most cases.

The gold farmers, which are most, also provide the lowest ranks with a ton of free concedes. But whatever counts as ruined in your book.

>>
>>169472927
Netdecks aren't 100% of ladder?
>>
>>169472962
regardless, you cant deny that it inflates the number of netdecks on ladder since you only play against bots mindlessly grinding.
you're the reason why lifecoach quit the game, and why many other people are quitting too. are you proud of yourself?
>>
>>169472840
The gold farmers that limit their laddering to Rank 20 obviously only run the most disgusting of netdecks (e.g. pirate warrior) to be the most efficient. For every 'free concede' that a player gets for 5 seconds of satisfaction, it also enrages the other half of the playerbase that try to go against pirate warriors with fucking Crocolisks. At least the actual portrait farmers are working for it in their own way but when it's just a bot, that's even more infuriating.
>>

The farmers aren't the problem here, the garbage ladder system is the problem here.

There needs to be a separate 'fun' ladder with rotations of meta bans. Also there needs to be a pauper mode with only basic/common cards.

Just replace his decks with memedecks. Level the playing field and he'll lose because he's fucking attrocious and got completely carried by his tryhard decks.

>>169473740
Goddamn what a dip. I play silly decks for 28/30 days of the month but there's seriously some real shit cards that literally nobody would ever use unless they got offered it against two Wisps in an Arena draft. There's a difference between printing slightly less powerful cards that might work in a niche theme and then printing Worgen Greaser.

On a slightly unrelated note does anyone else think they should tweak the crafting costs? Commons dust for 1/40 their value but you need 10x the normal cost to craft in Gold whereas a golden Rare needs 8x, golden Epic 4x and Legendary 2x. Shouldn't golden commons cost around 100-200 dust to craft? It wouldn't detract from those high-roller $300+ a year players because they can still show off with expensive golden epics and legionaries and all-gold decks but the middle tier IAP and F2P crowd could grow their collection (especially with gold stuff showing in Arena soon people will want to craft the non-meta commons in gold) and getting hooked on making cheap, flashy commons would probably encourage some to get into buying more packs to craft more gold shit.
>>
>>169476689
Replacing people with "too good decks", when they don't break any rules seems inconsistent as fuck. Design the tournament rules in a way that makes metadecks not possible instead, why punish players for trying to play well in an environment you shaped?
>>
>>169476720
yea i think they should for the reason that getting more dust back or having cheaper costs or both it allows people to be way more flexible at less of a loss
which means people can more easily craft the cards they want and are less reliant on rng
in the same way it is easier for blizzard to make changes to cards because if people want to swap to other ones it's a lot less punishing

i think both of those would be good for the player at least to move in that direction somewhat

If he was trying to play well, he should consider playing Hearthstone.

Point is, it's a meme tournament. you don't have to be a genius to figure out that we don't want meta decks. There's a difference between making a strong deck with a couple meme cards in it and straight up bringing meta decks, playing like dogshit, then BMing like you've achieved anything after closely beating a memer.

When you have a price for your tournament, people are going to construct good decks and try to win, this isn't that hard to predict. If you want people to play memedecks, design the rules as such.

>BMing
So it's a meme tournament, but BMing with gestures is too much? Sure sounds people take this "meme tournament" too seriously. The whole concept of BM in hearthstone is a giant meme, and anyone who actually considers hearthstone "BM" BM is retarded.

I just realized that over every expansion I pulled like 3 meta legendaries.

1. Malganis
2. Lightlord
3. Kazakkus
4. Patches

It's fucking terrible. I've played for 3 years, buying new sets for 2.3 years now, hundreds of dollars down the drain, literally hundreds of hours of grinding quests to buy packs and I pulled 4 useable legendaries and had to craft the rest for 1/80 common - 1/5 rare - 1/4 epic - 1/4 legendary ratio.

Yeah I'm really fucking thrilled about the removal of adventures.

>>169477631

It'll never happen though. People complain about the meta being stale and Team 5 doles out some sparse infrequent nerfs but at the heart of the issue lies the crafting costs - many players only play the ~~~best cancer decks~~~ because they have very little dust and want to get the most out of their money or time questing for gold. You're less likely to experiment with the full expansion collection or craft golden shit if you just barely have enough resources to make a pirate or shaman deck. Or maybe you're still missing epics from Classic because you're been buying MSoG packs and epics are tough enough to come by, nevertheless 2 copies of them to make certain decks work.

Then you get shit like >>169477023 or good old Weasel Tunneler and Luckydo Buccaneer diluting your epic pity timer and.. god. So many of the Rogue cards are so bad. But yeah. Making epics/legos cheaper to craft, boosting the dust return for destroying them, making less absolutely fucking awful filler trash and making the lowest tier of golden cards accessible and appealing to craft to more than 5% of the playerbase could possibly encourage more variety in the ladder and more pack-buying. Better than what we have now where most players just dust 80% of the expansion cards they pull to craft the best cards and have little investment in their collection, dusting the legendaries that get rotated so they can craft the current best ones.

>>169482934
55% winrate is a reasonable assumption to make. So make that 225 games for the average rank 5 player to get there, and 525 games for the average legend player.

525 games spread over 30 days is 18 games per day or 36 games every 2 days.

>>169483475
those numbers are calculated using the win rate in the left column, so on average you just have to play the number of games in the middle column to get to Rank 5.

and then double that to get to Legend.

but Hearthstone isn't a grind, guys, it's a game of skill and interaction :^)

>>169483475
Yes that has a 55% winrate factored in.
>>
Why do I feel like the longer I play, the more cards I have and the better my deck are my luck actually gets worse?
>>
>>169483047
The point is that it illustrates how monumentally incompetent team5 is. It would have been one thing if lifecoach just told them this shit is broken, but no he actually demonstrated it by trashing them in a series of games with pirate warrior, then they straight up disregarded it with the "he's not a designer" rationalization, just to have to backtrack a few months later and fix shit that, surprise, really was fucking broken.

because now that you have the meta decks built, you feel entitled to win because you are using the best decks with the best cards.

so when you lose, it ends up feeling even worse because your """""TOP LEGEND RANK 1 DECK"""""" didn't do what it was supposed to.

It's the same reason that Aggro Shaman/Pirate niggers get salty when they lose. They feel like they were supposed to win every game.
>>
>>169483153
to put that into a time perspective:
with an average match time of 5 minutes, that's 90 minutes of games per day, which isnt too bad.
the thing is, even 90 minutes of just grinding with the same netdeck against other netdecks is nauseatingly boring and frustrating. the game becomes very predictable and so stale. this is why people use bots
>>
>>169483047
The entire design, balance and test team (who had been working on MSOG for 4-5 months at that point) didn't identify the pirate warrior/shaman decks yet at that point.

They had carefully crafted their decks well in advance to fight against lifecoach for testing purposes. Lifecoach had basically an hour to slap a deck together.

He made pirate warrior and completely dumpstered everything they came up with. He played against top legend Blizzard testers.

He demonstrated that there was something terribly wrong, he vocalized and indicated the issues, and everything was ignored because Team 5 is incompetent.

I honestly don't understand your desire to defend their actions even in the slightest. Every step of this story just clearly indicates a gross incompetence on Team 5's part.

this is just barely true even for the fastest aggro deck in the game (Face Hunter).

http://www.vicioussyndicate.com/statistics-on-the-duration-of-hearthstone-games-over-16000-analyzed/

average game length is more like 8 minutes, so your estimate of 90 minutes a day is way too low.

easily triple that if you want to ladder with a control or combo deck.
>>
>>169484004
She'll be gone after the patch that actually removes her from the set.

But I now lose with every deck. My winrate is around 20% across the board. Literally can't rank for shit now, old decks or new.

No-one wants to see someone who can't play the game for shit, brings the strongest boring decks, and then BMs on top of it, advancing in the tournament.

Like don't fucking kid yourselves. When you're playing that fucking badly but still going through, who fucking wants to see that? What the fuck is this contest that he's winning? If I make zero mistakes, and my opponent makes the most basic of misplays but wins because Blizzard can't design a game to encompass the a modicum of skill... why would anyone want that in a meme tournament.

The shitter doesn't have fun, the opponent doesn't have fun, the viewers don't want to watch the same shit that's crippling the game. Nobody wins.

It's fun on turn 10, the whole point of the deck is freeze a single large enemy minion/whole enemy board while hoping they can't remove your big things too easily, then you wipe stuff with flamestrike/arcane explosion/blizzard+spell dmg, while at the same time generating big minions with Medivh. It's an alt win condition to Antonio, so to say. Deck sucks against hard removals, but it's meant for fun. Plus I always wanted a freeze deck that isn't built around burn.

That's what I really dislike about the whole subreddit in general. All they do is defend Team Shit because it's a bussiness!!1 They can't give more free stuff they need to earn money.
They can't balance the game because it's a busienss!!!1
Every fucking excuse is that the game isn't charity. For everything. Even when some people complained about no Christmas deals, a shitload of people called them entitled and defended Shitzard by saying the game needs to earn money.
They defend more expansions without adventures because it's a business and makes sense to sell more cards.

I how fucking retarded can you be? You're a fucking consumer. it's not your job to think of Blizzard's income. They need to think about that and you need to get the best possible deal. That's how capitalism can only work out for the consumer. You literally have to fight for the best deal or you're getting butt fucked by Deathwing's lava dick.
But no, they will defend blizzard and gladly pay another $200 per year because releasing 100 filler on top of the 30 good adventure cards is totally going to make the meta less stale.
>>
>>169488530
Consumers and defending anti consumerist actions are the cancer of society. Who the fuck cares about profit in this context, that shouldn't be a prime argument
>>
>>169488530
ofc and we are saying it's too much and they need to move the balance a bit more back to a serious game

for starting out it's cool but even the noob becomes better and better

He and a bunch of other retards like pics related think that it's impossible to make a working matchmaking system.

I mean, Team 5 can't make it. Must be literally impossible to match people of similar skill against each other.
>>
>>169488572
My point is how wrong it is.
Some of the most commercially successful games let the better player win 90 if not 100% of the time.
If he's talking only card games then yeah the better player can't win all the time but unless his hand bricks hard he'll still win most of the time.

It's as if making the game better would be a bad business decision and would result in reduced profits.
>>
>>169488801
>Make the game playable and give f2p enough breathing room to not only get a few meta decks but also room to experiment

So many people would play a lot more and in turn buy more packs.

But now they have to nickle and dime everyone so you get a quarter of the collection for free with 2-3 legendaries of which you have 80% of them being bad.

So now they have to scrape their collection to finish the most efficient/best deck and that's the end of it.

Until some cucks get so frustrated with the game they blow 50 bucks once a year and regret the purchase instantly.

I'm not defending anybody but many people would get much less frustrated at Team5 if they understood better their target (casuals) and aims

They aren't retarded they just don't care about you, competitive guy, and this won't change

Once you realize this, if you still keep playing, you can enjoy the game much more imo, that is, an RNG shitfest with the occasional STORY TO TELL YOUR FRIENDS

tl;dr the guys at Blizzard are Jews but you're the one deciding to give them money

LoE made the game more interested and gave birth to aggro Shaman. Which wasn't that bad at that time. Also Reno decks. LoE was fun in genreal.
Then Old Gods and Standard happened. The game was genuinely great at the start of the expansion.
Zoo was as cheap as every and not really OP. It allowed new player to get a cheap competitive deck fast.
Shaman was idiotic, but Zoo actually kept in check.

Then Kara and the balancing patch happened. It killed aggro Shaman, but it made Midrange Shaman so insane that it didn't have a single counter. Shamans made up over 50% of the ladded. That's how insane they were. They got anti-zoo tools that allowed Shaman to walk over the only existing counter, Zoo. Power creeped arcane blast that also summons a 1 drop, 1 mana Win Axe with an additional charge.

And then MSG happened. Shaman on top of the idiotic shit got the idiotic pirate package and extremely good Jade tools making Shaman take over 60% of ladder at one point.
Pirate Warrior finishes the game on turn 5, eventually turn 6 and if you don't have Reno, you lost.
Aggro Rogue got great tools as well, again pirate package and the same pirate package fits perfectly into miracle removing the only weakness of the deck. No early board presence.

It's a rock paper scissor meta where the rock smashes the paper over 50% of the times because paper didn't draw Reno by turn 6.
>>
>>169489432
When its not turn 4 lethal its turn 6 reno and 4 kazakus potions or an army of overstatted bricks, either dragon or green.
>>
>>169489490
I understand that I'm not their primary target audience, but the current model isn't even casual friendly.
I got my brother in it soon after Old Gods release and he quit the game. I tried introducing 2 other friends to the game as well and they quit soon after.
Later 2 other friends were interested as well but at that point I just told them to not bother since they are starting too late and the cheapest aggro decks run 3 legendary cards making it impossible for them to compete.

No matter how casual you are, everyone loves to win. There is no going around it. The golden rule that most people ignore is that everyone plays for fun and everyone loves to win. A casual is less likely to actually stick around a bad game because it gets better if you have more cards. A casual will just change the game, move on. That's why the game is dropping every month on the grossing page in the play store.
>>
>>169488530
I've never treated Cardstone as some super serious esport. But losing a game on turn 5 because shaman rolled spellpower totem on 2 is frustrating no matter if you're a casual or a competitive player.

On their current path yes the game prints money but its gradually less money as people get fed up and leave. With extremely minor improvements that wouldnt even put a dent in their net profits they could ensure the revenue stream grows instead of dwindles.

I don't think full murloc package is worth it without Finja or Anyfin.

I was running Corrupted Seer as murloc with Curator. You should definitely add some board clear (like 1 brawl) since warrior has that great ability to come back after enemy has full board. Dropping Ragnaros on empty board after board clear just cracks opponents nuts.

You have almost so many dragons you can think about dragon synergies, like Netherspite Historian for card draw or Corruptor or Alex's Champion.

Can someone teach me a basic concept of the game i.e. when to hit face vs. minions.

Scenario:
>You go first
>You place a 3-2 on turn 2
>Enemy places 3-2

Now you can trade or hit face.
>Hit face and place another 3-4 or so.

Now he can trade or hit face. If he trades, you have already hit his face and traded a minion, better than if you had just traded the previous turn. If he hits your face and places a 4-5, next turn what do you do?

>Hit his face with 2 minions and place more.

Eventually he will have to trade for your minions, because you are 1 step ahead with your minions, basically getting free hits until he's forced to trade.

So my question is, why does every single streamer I see trade as soon as the enemy places the first minion? I understand the importance of "repetitive damage" and "board control", but isn't it better to force your enemy to trade for your minions instead of trading straight away? Often, streamers hit minions in situations where I would hit the face.

And I'm talking about Arena decks, not some pre made decks where you can expect good taunts.

it's going to be dependent on matchups and stuff. like against a priest, you don't really want him to have a minion on the board on turn 3 because the he velen's chosens it and you lose the game. it's also dependent on what kind of deck you're playing. i don't really play arena though so i wouldn't know everything to play around.

>>169505769
then you need MORE card draw
>>
>>169503361

Because tempo matters way more than face damage. If you get your opponent to 6 health but lose the board and don't have burn spells to cover the distance, you're fucked

If you've only whittled your opponent to 20 but have secured two bigger minions on the board, or several small to medium ones, and have exhausted his options, he's dead in one or two turns

Everybody drafts buff minions and removal spells, so giving your opponent options will only open up for swing turns. A 2/2 with an abusive or dark iron dwarf can remove a 4 health minion for free and give them a 4/4 which now you have to answer

the decision to go face anyway depends on your hand, their hand size and the mana cost and rarity of possible removals (blizzard is a rare and way less common than flamestrike), high health 6+ damage minions are rarely used to trade off small ones

Honestly, even if you average only 1-2 wins per run, its only a little bit less efficient than packs. Now that adventures are on they're way out, that's all you can spend gold on, anyway.
>>169513484
At least the decks aren't 100% identical from game to game. There is a little variety, and you get to be on the cancer end every once in a while without meeding to drop fat stacks on Blizzard's OP Legendary of the season.

You don't get 3 win gold for arena. Even at like a 4 win average you'd have a very hard time beating just doing some ladder farming for that amount of time.

Well considering your daily income is around 50 gold per day to get just 70 packs per set I personally don't take that approach. But more power to you.
>>
>>169515441
they know exactly what they are doing, they banned all viable combo decks when standard came out and they are about to wipe out the non viable ones with next patch as well.

I know they were sat times annoying to play aginst but there was nothing more fulfilling than winning with a massive patron turn, handlock plays, vanilla miracle rogue. now its just forced mirange vs midrange archetypes

Same to you.
>>
>>169514921
i can tell you it crippled diablo a lot
they would make these 6 sets that had something like do 1000x dmg on spell X, meaning 6 slots were taken by the set and you had to run spell X
it was extremely dry and even with slowly adding more offset items they would basically be supportive of the 6 set for example a new bracer that would be spell X casts 50% faster. so in a way the amount of "forced" power grew from that

dunno where i was going with this but the force shit was big in d3 and it was really dumb and didnt allow for much replayability
part of the draw of the first seasons was they would add new 6 sets are change old ones to now do 1000x dmg too meaning for that set you could now play with spell Y

nvm just wanted to share that

Mark my words: Priest will be tier1 OP cancer by the end of the year. Blizz has already layed the groundwork with agent. Next expansion drops a few more tools that Priest can't quite use; the next vomits OP shit to push Priest over and make it's tools usable. The third expansion this year is jus Blizz buffing Priest that much more and printing some crappy "answers" to whatever broken shit came out in the first place.

Nah man. Better nickle and dime everyone so people get frustrated, can't afford more than 1 meta deck let alone fun decks with irregular epics.

That surely wont make people just quit instead of spending money.

This past year 3 friends/people I knew of tried to get into Hearthstone.

They all quit within a month.

Thanks for focusing on the new player experience for 3 years Blizzard, it really paid off :)

Start buffering gold starting next expansion. Just pay up front, craft after 2 weeks and save up all the gold till the expansion after.

It's the only correct approach.

Reynad is on

>>169526671

Now you get to experience this 3 times a year! Don't forgot to pre-order.


I think that and the no adventures thing is what's going to kill the game for me. it's just going to be too hard to keep up without shelling out or spending all day playing. That and the devs seemed to be getting worse at designing new cards and mechanics.

Hex isn't magic-esque, it was so similar at one point they had a prolonged litigation with WoTC, but won with the caveat of having to change a few cards and the starting health (these things were exact copies from magic) the gameplay itself is a direct copy of MTG mechanics BUT they actually add more mechanics that take of digital design space, so imagine magic with cards like beneath the grounds and reno jackson (And things even crazier that I won't spoil)
>>169466136
Competitive yugioh was extremely complex, sometimes even surpassing MTG. True its mostly known for the kids show (like pokemon) but the actual game would make children weep to fully understand, it would feel like college level math homework. Its no more, and in this way significantly less, a childrens card game than hearthstone is.

>>169529331

Hex is fucking great. I just hate how much you have to pay to be competitive or draft.

Single player is also a blast, but there's too much down time between areas. They need to add the rest of the MMO hooks like asap.

why are hearthstone player in particular so sensitive? it boggles my mind

Assuming 50g/day or 100g/day with free botting.

Days in a year 365 * 50 = 18.250 / 36.500 gold divided by 3 = 6083 / 12.167 gold = 61 / 121 packs per set

Save 121 days before the next set (50 days left). The summer set releases in aprox. 172 days, so you need to start saving all gold by the 18th of april = exactly 2 weeks after Un'goro launch.

Finish your pity timer before then and stop buying packs. Craft favorite legendaries/epics 2 weeks after the release.

I have 5350 gold and at 100 gold per day I'll have 10.350 gold at the final day. This means I'll be short on Un'goro but as of the set after I can go for a clean 120 packs spread per set.

Hearthstone induces nerve decaying which leads to both emotional and physical hypersensitivity.

It's true.

>tfw got to see reynad getting obliterated live

I should tune in more often

>>169530635
it's from the extra rng in the game.
