The issue with Pillage Rogue is that gets stomped by Pirate Rogue, which is played by a few of the players I come across commonly (not that Mine Rogue does much better, but it can pull a victory with a dirty discount on Wildpaw Gnoll). I also think that deck isn't good against Shamans in general because they run this Scargil murloc package with Mutanus, and Mine Rogue is the only combo deck viable in the meta that can continue to play past that.
I wonder if that’s a bigger market than we realize. LoR is incredibly generous with people who are willing to devote a few hours per week to it. But maybe there’s a potential audience of casual players who would enjoy playing less than that? If so, they now have enough resources to build a deck around their favorite LoL character, and they can have fun. Some of those players will eventually become more serious, and others will stay casual but keep the player base up. I see that as a good thing.
The HS team is full of a bunch of morons and I hate all of their decisions. Fuck the entire year of the Gryphon, literally killed Hearthstone. I can’t even enjoy playing the game now because of stupid cards made in that year. Curse of Agony, Jayce, Kazakuzan and fucking Cariel. All of them can go and fuck off
I think that took 4-5 years for me to buy every single champion. And this is a good deal for the players and them, since you would not buy skins that you dont own a champion, and I think thar people would not spend real money buying champions, normaly.
As it is, the more you collect, the harder it is to collect. If they added duplicate protection for coins, the reverse would be true, as it is in traditional Hearthstone: the fewer cards you're missing, the more likely it is to get those cards. I don't see why we can't have that.
Another thought I had recently: Blizzard very "generously" give us free legendary Mercs through special events (Leeroy, Vanndar, Tyrael). The thing is, because they are legendary, you get their coins from packs so rarely. That's why my Leeroy and Vanndar are still some 400-500 coins short of maxxing out, despite the fact that I have completed all 18 tasks for both of them. I don't expect to have a maxxed out Tyrael any time soon.
Personally I feel that it's not bounties the issue with coins, as you can pick bounties, it's the packs, for when you open a pack and get only coins for maxed mercs... If they added maxed merc protection on packs, just like they added duplicate protection on HS packs, that would mostly solve the issue in my opinion.
Can you do a more or less thorough comparison between that game and HS regarding stuff like: amount of luck needed to win a game, prevalence of random things, prevalence of controlled randomness, swinginess of turns/plays, how much skill matters, whether the game provides enough room for player skill to flourish rather than cutting it down like in HS, how they plan to deal with cards clutter in the future, etc.
And most importantly, how far/close is it to a gacha game and others that like to pray on people's weakness and whales (see the diablo immortal videos of some people where everything they are doing is explained in detail). I.e. how much pay-to-win is/will the game be?
More than half of my games (Standard) are vs. Control Warrior and I'm really tired of it. I do think that control decks should be viable in every meta, but spending a majority of my gaming time silently watching armor gain and board wipes to eventually die to a 1-mana Mr. Smite if I'm not fast enough is just tiresome.
...the other half is the damn warlock with curses or murlocs, then the op mech mage...
So much variety in this game....so easy to netdeck, cause they all play the same.. It's not fun anymore.
Very nice work, the art and the flavor is great! I also like the new keyword and the fact that the powerlevel is a little too high overall, just like a custom expansion should be :)
As Hashinshin already said on his Video: it's nice to have, it helps to build decks in the beginning but it's not amazing and given that LoR is very generous with card aqusition I don't see it being necessary.
Btw does anyone has any info where official information about it will be posted? Since I'm not aware what Blizzard uses anymore to provide info and news.

I had to say, I totally misunderstood it. Now that I played it I can see that it "buffs" the existing Tentacle.
I firstly understood that it spawns another one if you already have one and then that's the one buffed. Something like having on board: 1/1, 2/2, 3/3 and go on.

VII.Ozumat(3) *Half-Digested Tome **Creatures of the Ancient Seas x2
For Ozumat achievement (thanks to vov12012 from reddit)
[I figured out a pretty consistent way to do the Ozumat achievement.
So you want to pick Halus as a companion and then do the following:
Mulligan: Keep everything.
Turn 1: Bloom out Caye & pick ‘Dream Team’. Bring left 1/20 to 1/15.
Turn 2: Bring 1/18 to 1/15 & leftmost 1/15 to 1/10.
Turn 3: Play Halus & pick ‘Tenacity’. Attack 3rd tentacle from left.
Turn 4: Attack 5th & 6th tentacle from left. End Turn.
Now all tentacles should suicide into your taunt.
Sometimes 1 of the tentacles can die before turn 4, depending on Unstable Shadow Blast RNG. I have also seen Ozumat killing your taunt from hand after you pass your last turn. Just retry if those things happen.]

It's not that crazy, I mean you wouldn't be able to play every single champion even if you own all of them, so there is little incentive to spend money to unlock champions and Riot makes most of their profit from cosmetics.
You would have to shell out some serious coin to acquire every League of Legends champion in one go...just handing them all out "for free" is crazy. I played for years and only had like 55% of the roster at that time.
