Yeah, I agree with you OP. It's definitely quite here, certainly on the forums. I think the reasons are that the community is smaller now than it used to be, and also more split (hearthpwn is still there). Plus OoC is in itself split between several games. Especially the forums that's bad news. When you check the latest threads on the main page - which don't exactly take central stage in the first place, you have to scroll a looong way - you see only a few posts for 'your' game.  Yes, you can use a portal - but then there are only 5 posts visible, and when you click on 'more recent posts' you again get content from all games. So the interface isn't optimal either.

And forum activity feeds more activity... when nobody posts, others lose the intensive to check/post/reply. It's too bad, I like OoC best of all because it is definitely the most constructive and friendly site. But maybe that is a factor as there are less pointless posts and trolling...

 

 

Well yes there are less stupid "OMG this thing is OP" every day.. tbh it's an upside..

I prefer the smaller community to random people who post salty threads about losing to X or Y...

I think the diversity of this site is a plus rather than a minus.. sadly both hs and runeterra had so far similar releases of new content so the site was super loaded when both had new content.

I started playing this last night after your coverage went live. Too early for me to make a judgment as a whole, but those are some pretty fantastic giveaways.

Whether it's pay to win or not, all that ever happens to me is getting run over by snowballing decks. I have failed to find that great in any way so far, lol

YARRR that was a fun diversion

I am mostly active on forums and commenting on news posts. A while back I did do a series of story-driven decks which you might find interesting if looking for strange decks, but once they wrapped up I haven't personally used the deck side of OoC very much.

But with regards to whether OoC is "where it's at": it is absolutely the best site for HS news and (polite) discussion purposes. How it compares to hearthpwn for deck lists I couldn't say, partly because I don't make/view enough decks, but also because I never visit hearthpwn anymore.

I cannot fathom why people bring Raza/Rez Priest, Pogo/Mill Rogue, Big/Demon/Cube Warlock, Jade/Aviana/Togwaggle/Maly Druid, and Quest Mage into CASUAL Wild when I'm just BS'ing around with some dumb Homebrew decks.

What is the point? I know they're not practicing piloting the decks since they seem to be VERY proficient at winning with them, they're not earning wins towards golden heroes, so why??

Forgot to post another proof of decks viability. September climb

I am still here, I never actually posted any deck.. but it's been slow time for this site/forums atm..

Greetings card fans.

I've been giving HS a bit of a back seat the last 6 months or so. (I got bit tired of climbing ladders and story modes don't interest me in the slightest.) 

So naturally I haven't been following the forums or websites for Hearthstone news.

However, this week i decided I'd log back on to play some strange decks so I came back to OOC looking for some inspiration.

I couldn't help but feel however there seems to be less of a community going on here than when the site first launched? Maybe I've got this all wrong but it feels to me like there aren't tonnes of decks with lots of up votes and comments like back in the hearthpwn days. So I just wandered, is that a thing or am i just looking in the wrong places? 

Did you all move on to bigger and better things? Basically my question is, where are all the OGs at? 

There's nothing worse than facing a roper when you're already on a terrible losing streak. 

Seriously, all ropers must die. If you like roping someone, please, just fuck off and die. You're doing all of us a favor

This game certainly isn’t pay to win. It’s so incredibly generous to anything I have played. Especially digital card games

It is rare that I say this about any game but LoR is one of the few games that I'd say I appreciate the signs of money spending in since it is purely cosmetics and you are supporting the game by having them. Other than that though there are no ways to spend money in LoR that has any real impact on game play.

There are you speed up your collection.. instead of "grinding" I put grinding on quotes cause you can get a full collection just by completing all quests every week in just a few months

Yeah, I know you can buy cards, but when I said 'any real impact on game play' I was referring to the fact that you can achieve the same level of game play as someone who paid for cards in a very short time compared to most games.

Yeah, all it really does is give you the cards you want faster. If you wait for it, you get them without spending anything

Looks promising, I'll try it out 

I think it’s interesting because in my opinion, Pay to Win gets you nothing in this game. I haven’t payed a scent, and I have almost a complete collection. If you just play the game consistently, then you unlock all the resources you need, at a really reasonable spee

Awesome themed post. Thanks! Well done.

Ahoy! Thanks for the fun, mates!

Taric was my last CoM Champion craft, so...yay, me? I'm curious what his rework will be.

Thanks for the feature! I guess I'd better get round to finishing that write up now...

Love these ones, thanks for adding it!
