  • Hearthstone Hotfixes - Duels Gets a Balance Update Moving Treasures Into Different Pools, Phaoris’ Blade Nerfed

    Am I right in saying this means you can't get From the Swamp and Band of Bees together now, because they're in the same pool? If so, that's good. I had it recently and it is both broken and very frustrating. You can kill any enemy minion without issue, but you have to be so careful not to fill your board with them, because unless you have spells that kill your own minions or they miraculously drop a divine shield minion, you can never play anything again.

  • Dekkster's Top 5 Hearthstone Pro Deck Picks for Madness at the Darkmoon Faire

    Quote From OmarComing

    I mean, I think the Old Gods are pretty safe to craft though. Playing Darkmoon Faire without them is the equivalent of scraping all the cheese off your pizza and just eating the saucy bread... which is inhuman... like the Old Gods... wait, I lost my train of thought... 

    is it weird I used to do this as a kid?  I'd eat all the cheese/toppings first.  Then I'd eat the saucy bread.

  • 'Servant of Yogg-Saron' Tryouts

    Maybe i did miss it, but ehm since when does playing brawl not count to your quests?

  • yep it is! It still looked like a cool addition to me cause i love the new yogg xD

    regarding To My Side!: i may cut one :P (EDIT: i added one petting zoo for more early board instead of 1 To My Side!) (i feel like having 1 is still fair tho. After all if you get the yogg in hand ready to be played, the value from it's nice. If you think it's too clunky, you can definitely run the second spellstone which is super good as well!)
    regarding Rhok'delar: well tbh now, in wild, with thousand hunter spells, my beloved legendary bow is not that good like it used to. Said that, this is ofc meant to be a fun a deck, so i am still willing to run one of favourite card even if it s not good. With all of this i want to say: most of time you aint really playing Rhok'delar xD

    P.s. i also added Sphere of Sapience to actually help drawing Yogg (or to prevent those interaction you were talking about as well)!

  • Hearthstone Hotfixes - Duels Gets a Balance Update Moving Treasures Into Different Pools, Phaoris’ Blade Nerfed

    Quote From AngryShuckie

    All treasures are broken, but not necessarily with the surrounding deck. Lunar Band is a good example: it is OP enough to be removed, but also weak if you have few deathrattles. While that doesn't stop some treasures being baseline stronger than others, it does highlight that if you want all Duels runs to have comparable power you'd need to offer treasures to suit the decks, rather than randomly. There are good arguments for that, but I would hate it because then the whole thing becomes too predictable and undermines the rogue-like nature of the game mode.

    Rogue-like games are always about starting off weak and trying (and sometimes failing) to become as broken as possible as you go along. Sometimes you are given the nuts, other times you have to muddle through with treasures which aren't best suited to your deck.

    That's actually a good way to look at Duels.  Never considered that it's supposed to be a rogue-like version of Hearthstone.   Still, I'm glad that Wax Rager, Band of Bees, and Lunar Band are being nerfed in various ways.

  • Corrupt Weekly Quest not updating

    So that's what was happening... This isn't fine at all... It should update whether the cards are corrupted or uncorrupted. This makes the process a complete slog. Also, playing the old gods 10 times has been next to impossible already. The games aren't lasting all the way to 10 mana. The quest updates normally and it's not their fault that the game's are too fast but i wouldn't recommend bothering with this one if you want to complete your weekly quests without playing for 5+ hours each day just for this one quest.

  • Five Games in - not a single Yogg played. :-(

    Also: Is there a certain trick to draw Yogg early so that he doesn't mess up your To My Side! and Rhok'delar?

  • How soon is too soon to craft?

    Quote From happyshorts

    I wait until 1 hour after the expansion has launched but i just play for fun not competitively.

    I'm that way too. If I like something I'll craft it. Still dust is limited and I'm torn between Maxima Blastenheimer or Tickatus. Both look real fun. Plus I got High Exarch Yrel but have few other strong Paladin cards. Tempted by Lady Liadrin and High Abbess Alura here.

    I got lucky getting N'Zoth, God of the Deep as my freebie, who I wanted. Now it's down to a coinflip. Maybe wait another day or two see what decks look fun.

  • Tom Kench is OP!

    He's still OP... People never use him unless they have a butt ton of health buffs in hand. So he's impossible to kill.

  • Soul fragment

    Oh ok thank you for your answers guys ! I think the interaction I did last time was with armor so it explains why the interaction didn't worked.

  • Heimer is bugged.

    Nope. Happen again when I only had 3 cards when I drawed. That's only 6 cards. Max is 10.

  • Spinning the Wheel of Fate with Yogg-Saron in Standard - 4 Hearthstone Decks to Get Your Maw On

    I think my secret rogue is better

    And yogg control priest is pretty good

  • Did anybody here calculate the exp you earn in Casual constructed compared to Ranked constructed?

    I mean, that's more of an observation than a calculating question.

  • Hearthstone Hotfixes - Weekly Quest Fixes, Duels Now Contributes to Class Progress, Heroic Duels Rating Fix

    I've gotta double check, is the number on the bar the level you are or the level you're going to be? 

  • Scholomance EVEN Warlock

    I don't have any plans to alter this list based on Darkmoon Faire's cards because I don't think many of the new cards fit into the game plan of this particular version of even Warlock. There is one card that might be worth experimenting with: Deck of Chaos. I think Deck of Chaos will be too slow for this list (6-mana do nothing spell); however, dropping a 0-mana 20/8 Molten Giant or 0-mana 12/8 Mountain Giant or a 2-mana Abyssal Summoner or a... (you get the point)... could be really strong for this archetype. If you have Deck of Chaos, I think it might sub into this list pretty well over Mojomaster Zihi.

    The new set definitely brought some interesting even cost cards that could be implemented in a list that has a different game plan or tries to be a little more high-roll-y. As mentioned above, Deck of Chaos is definitely one of the cards that might be worth experimenting with--especially if we add in cards like Faceless Shambler, Enhanced Dreadlord, Zzeraku the Warped, etc.

    The new set might also enable a control-oriented even Warlock thanks to cards like C'Thun, the Shattered, Cascading Disaster, and Fire Breather. It would certainly be easy to cycle through the deck to draw all of C'Thun's pieces with the 1-mana Life Tap. The win condition might then be focused around C'Thun instead of Giants.

    Lastly, "Corrupt" even Warlock could work as well--either as a control list or as burn list. Tickatus and Cascading Disaster would work really well in a control-focused list (maybe even Highlander?). On the other hand, Circus Medic and Y'Shaarj, the Defiler have already shown their potential, so I don't see why they couldn't work in even Warlock too! Knife Vendor could possibly fit into a burn list as well.

    This question has me inspired, and I might just experiment with a new list. However, I don't think I'll change this list unless my experimentation shows that this list could benefit from some new cards.

  • Rewards Track: Current progress

    I'm at level 25, got the other free legendary last night. I played a lot and I mean a lot since the new progression launched, because I got the BG quest and played BG just to clear it but I ended up liking the mode.

     

    This battle system is absolutely brutal and slow. You have to wait several days to get another level even if you play a lot like me. Meanwhile the old system you are guaranteed 100 gold every 2 days even if you play less than an hour per day.

     

    I tried doing the DMF achivements to get some extra exp, and they are just so bad lol. They are either give too little EXP (100), or are just too hard to do in ranked mode and is a waste of time.

     

    Blizzard really screwed us with this update.

  • Did anybody here calculate the exp you earn in Casual constructed compared to Ranked constructed?

    I know that game time is the biggest indicator for how much exp you get. But is it true you get 70% less EXP in Casual? 

  • Rewards Track: Current progress

    Quote From griffior

    One thing I'd like to add however is that the Rewards Track is only a ~week old and I'm already almost halfway through it and I'm saying this is a good thing, I'm saying that the potential for a real grindfest is still possible towards the end of the track which is something I am absolutely not looking forward to.

    Although the reward track shows that you are almost halfway through to reaching level 50, the required amount of XP to reach that level would say that you are just about 25% on the way currently. This seems so wrong to me, coz the amount of XP gained after each game played does not change at all and the rewards also do not scale up significantly enough.

  • Dekkster's Top 5 Hearthstone Pro Deck Picks for Madness at the Darkmoon Faire

    Wait, no N'Zoth, God of the Deep in the Menagerie Warrior? I guess it's too slow for this deck?

  • 12 win warrior

  • How soon is too soon to craft?

    i agree with the previous comment. i wouldnt craft anything that its synergizes with cards that rotate in april
