I also pulled a High Exarch Yrel. I'm going to mess around with that but I never pulled many other key cards for pure Paladin. Gonna see what I can craft.
Maxima Blastenheimer is on my short list to craft. That deck looks real fun! The other Old Gods are also up there, I do love my Yogg moments.
Its sad that more and more players are turning away. I would probably stay on just to see how much gold I would end up at the end of the expansion before I start making any decisions.
I have absolutely no doubt I would not save up the same 8k gold by April 2021, what with this system as well as the midexpansion almost certainly ensuring that more resources are needed just to breakeven. But if at the end I end up not having enough cards, or my dust reserves are too drained (and I'm a fairly responsible and conservative crafter), then it might well be impossible to keep up even if I want to.
I'm done with HS, most likely for good. I had actually only just started dipping back into the HS waters after many months away, and then this happened. Combined with the fact that I don't care for the simplistic gameplay, this whole fiasco has made me not want to give any more time or attention to the game.
I'll probably even try to actively recruit my neighbor away from HS as well, over to LoR. He very recently started playing it again, kinda like me, and was wanting me to get back into it with him. I'll probably try to get him into LoR instead, since it's way more friendly to its players, communicates way better, has far better cosmetics, and the gameplay is so much better that you can hardly even make meaningful comparisons.
What do you mean you haven't seen any good-faith calculation? People used Blizzard's method of calculation, corrected for certain flawed assumptions, and arrived at similarly low numbers. Yes, some of the reaction has been a little over the top but you reducing the controversy to simply toxic and entitled fandom adds to the negativity. Check yourself.
The new system in Hearthstone feels exactly the same as it did with HotS. I really enjoyed playing Heroes of the Storm back then. Then came the new "system" where you had to get out your wallet for every crap.
After 2 years HotS was dead and it was mentioned at Blizzcon that development was stopped. I hope Blizzard does not make the same mistake again. That actually, you should learn something from your mistakes. And at the moment with the Battle Pass, it looks like they haven't learned anything.
As many have written, the Battle Pass is useless. When I buy a Battle Pass, I want to have the full view of all three expansions (or atleast from the current exp.) at the latest at the end of the game and I don't want to be forced to take more money in my hand or to disenchant wild cards to be able to create new ones.
I played Link's (i think?) variation of Menagerie Highlander Druid and it was pretty fun and actually worked often times enough :) I wonder how much does Yogg improve the win (lose?:D) rate.
So I’m still going to get like 30 exp for an hour’s worth of play? Can we work on fixing these issues first, because EXP does NOT equal to Gold or any sort of progression.
Our Day 1 Picks for Madness at the Darkmoon Faire - Six Decks We're Taking to Ladder
First try Menagerie Deathrattle Hunter. Really fun but tough figuring out the early game defenses.
I got Kiri, Chosen of Elune in my packs but thought without Survival of the Fittest my deck would suffer. So I made a no minion version with just the Solar Eclipseand Lunar Eclipse and wow those cards are amazing. Kiri does have a great summoning animation though!

Leta's Ramp Druid - Darkmoon Faire Day 1 Deck
Yup here's another one. Testing against Expert AI, and it gets smoked by Aggro if you don't have a good draw.

New Neutral Minion - Safety Inspector
Maybe with some deck interaction it bwill be better on the future
New Neutral Minion - Circus Medic
Very strong and flexible for some emergency, use heal, if not can be a minon killer or face damage
Very good
New Neutral Minion - Knife Vendor
Good enabler for Flesh Giant, followed by some kind of heal, of course
New Neutral Minion - Fantastic Firebird
Very good stats for a windfury minon. Very strong if it can survive the summoning turn.
But it gets somewhat powerful when followeb by a broom, can clear 2 little enemy minons
New Neutral Minion - Darkmoon Dirigible
Rush and divine shield is a strong combination, can clear one minion and survive until next turn
New Neutral Minion - Inconspicuous Rider
More useful in mage than hunter, and it can enable deck thining in an efficient way
New Neutral Minion - Gyreworm
Maybe a quest elemental shaman in wild will get some use of this card
New Neutral Minion - Darkmoon Statue
Very easy to corrupt and goot stats an effect, seems like a good one

Not necessarily since Mind Control isn't random.
New Neutral Minion - Parade Leader
Aside from Warrior, in hunter it have some synergy with [Hearthstone Card (Deser Spear) Not Found] and other rushing beasts

Who's the dev that thought Tickatus is balanced card ?
What the fuck is this crap ? Can remove up to 10 cards with Ysharj, seriously, fire those incompetent devs.
This card alone will destroy any chance to see some controls decks.
