  • Paladin Hero Power Buff Idea

    Yea, starting hero-power is supposed to be bad, unless it's a LATE GAME win condition (Sulfuras, Jaraxxus etc)

    If class is constantly failing, buff a few core cards.

  • Top Secret - Card Design Competition Discussion Thread

    I made a secret for each class.  I didn't look at any cards before I made these, except for the paladin one which I had to change from its original design.

  • This Week's Tavern Brawl is "Battle of Tol Barad" - Play Minions and Get Free Spells of the Same Cost

    I did go with the meme, but a different direction. Had a blast playing my wild 35 legendary deck, featuring Frost Lich Jaina and a trio of Renos.

  • Level up regions

    I think you get champions at level 16, I would race to get each of them to 16. Then rush each to the free champion wild card. Then finish the regions off. Either way you'll get there in the end, but getting champions helps build those decks. Just keep at it and make sure your weekly vault gets to min. of level 10 every week for the free champion wildcard.

    Most important, have fun, the grind doesn't seem like a grind if you enjoy yourself.

    Can I somehow remove my submission? 

    Unfortunately no, we do not allow people to edit or remove their cards after submitting :( We always suggest people come here first if they want feedback on their ideas.

    I can understand not making the card editable, but what about the description below it? Say you make a typo in it?
    Also totally missed this thread before I submitted my entry. Used to posting in a forum submission thread and all that. Guess the HearthPwn version of the competition I always played in needs to phase out of my head.

    What I made (might help someone avoid making a copy):

    While I really like this idea, there's already one submission which is nearly identical (minion goes dormant when played) and Elfensilver showed us another version of it 8 posts above of yours (hunter version, though). You can check the already submitted entries on your voting page. As I have no idea who had the idea first, I would give all of you the same raiting, but that's only my view and I wanted to let you know that there are similar cards around.

    Thanks. Going through all 40+ submissions by refresh though is going to get old very fast.

    Why not just show all submissions on the page with a random order? That way everyone sees different cards first or last and you can much much more quickly look and see if your idea is present or not. 40 images isn't exactly server breaking (and you could auto-generate lightweight thumbnails of them for that page if needed).

    I'd submit a different card now given the other Rogue Secret with Dormant in the pool but sadly I can't remove my entry. Shouldn't it be possible to modify/update/replace your entry until the voting phase starts? Until then no one can vote, so what's the harm right? Otherwise whoever throws down a card quickly enough will get free additional votes by virtue of being present on the voting page earlier. Timezones alone would make that unfair.

    Maybe a timer or a specific amounts of views would be needed to lock in your card before the voting phase?

    As soon as you can submit, you can vote.

    • Submission Phase: Enter the competition and vote on everyone's submissions.
    • Voting Phase: Last chance to help us choose the finalists. Get those votes in - Good luck!

    Voting period is just an extra period to give ppl time to vote. Our weight system makes sure that the cards with less views are shown more often so that every card has roughly the same amount of votes, or rather it gets roughly the same amount of view time, ppl can decide not to vote on a card. So even the very late submission generally get fair amount of view time to be voted on. Prime example is the last weeks winner, it was literally the last submission, yet it won the whole thing!

    You can see all the cards you voted on on your Voting Page, as said. We might add an option to see all at once at some point.

    Submissions are closed for editing for a reason and you are given warning that is the case. We might change this in the future, but no change for now.

    Got it. Will remember that next time. :)

  • Swaguar's Post-Nerf, Turn 8 Mecha'thun Warlock

    Not yet. It's definitely winnable though, and you can easily hit Legend with it. My feeling is it's going to be similar to Reno Priest where it has a bad matchup vs QM but good matchups vs pretty much everything else. 

    Difference being this and Reno Priest is that the Reno Priest matchup is freelo unless they Rat perfectly, the Secret Mage matchup is worse, and the games are way less grindy.

  • Level up regions

    Race to 8 to get the first set of champions (which you already did).

    From there: whatever feels best to you.  The optimal ratio of cards:XP would be to either do like DoubleSummon suggests or alternate to a new region every level, but honestly I think its more important to get the cards you want rather than just maximizing your total collection.  For context: I'm maxed in 4 regions right now, and my Ionia is at ~13 because I have zero interest in playing Ionia.

    Wish I'd looked in this thread before submitting my card, but here's Swindle:

     

    Swindle

     

    Rogue always appreciates cheap cards for activating Combos, so Swindle kind of handles that for the class. Plus, if Secret Burgle Rogue ever becomes a thing, this would fit nicely with that deck. I decided to make it Rare because it's fairly easy to play around, but has a high ceiling. This is also my first submission ever on here. Thanks for looking!

    I love everything about your card, except for the watermark. Makes no sense that Rogue would have one Secret from a Classic set for years before getting a new one. Let this be a reminder to others to be mindful of this. It is better to use custom watermark, if you cant put it in KAC or AOO, or give it a good flavor that it would make sense to be a standalone one in one of the sets in between. There is one submission which did just that.

    That being said, pretty good for 1st submission.

    Thanks! Yeah I didn't know that the watermark mattered, and I believe I left it at the default. I didn't intend for it to be Classic. Guess that might be my undoing. Thanks again for your feedback!

    you know you can just copy the code of your built decks, enter the brawl and have the game fill in the deck for you?

  • Level up regions

    go region by region on multiples of 4 that way you get the most wild cards to craft most decks.

  • Level up regions

    Hi, i just want to hear your opinion about what a new player should do.

    I started playing recently and i have levelled up some regions: 1) shadow isle 2) piltover 3) demacia 4) frejlord.
    I didn't complete them, they are in the range of 9-13 over 20 levels.

    What is it better to do? Level up all regions one by one completely (so 0 to 20 then switch) or is it correct to do what i am doing?
    What is the minimum level to reach in a region before switching to another?

    Thank you in advance

  • This Week's Tavern Brawl is "Battle of Tol Barad" - Play Minions and Get Free Spells of the Same Cost

    I wish they would give an option to just play one of your Standard decks in a brawl like this so you don't have to go to the trouble of constructing one. I recognize that I'm probably a brawl grump though, I've played since beta and I don't think I've ever intentionally played a brawl past winning my one free pack per week.

  • Top Secret - Card Design Competition Discussion Thread

    Thanks everyone who gave me feedback :) I finally submited Unsheathe, with the correct orthography and a token card :)

    Some additional feedback here:

    @Hordaki

    Solid effect, but the connection with copying and volcanos is a bit strange, even if Molten Reflection is a thing.

    @grayghost39

    I agree with linkblade. Other than that, it has a solid flavor and connects well with Paladin's mechanics, so once you correct its problems it can easily be a finalist.

  • This Week's Tavern Brawl is "Battle of Tol Barad" - Play Minions and Get Free Spells of the Same Cost

    I'm playing pretty much a standard singleton dragon-priest with Galakrond and Kronx.  The only wild card in it is Duskbreaker, but its taking care of business

  • This Week's Tavern Brawl is "Battle of Tol Barad" - Play Minions and Get Free Spells of the Same Cost

    It's a brawl.  You want planning and deck construction, play ranked it's a few clicks away.

  • The Pepper Thread - Share Some Good Vibes!

    Bad Luck Albatross might have been nerfed, but it's still a good card. Especially in combination with N'Zoth, the Corruptor, Twilight's Call, Psychopomp, Grave Rune. I just beat a jade druid by shuffling a lot of birds in their deck. I even Psychic Screamed a few.

    Not a fan. Favors mindless RNG more than clever planning and deck construction.

    You're correct that RNG plays a big role here, but deck construction is also really important. Using cards that benefit from spell-casting (like Mana Addict) or from playing lots of cards (like Edwin or Questing Adventurer) can be very powerful.

  • This Week's Tavern Brawl is "Battle of Tol Barad" - Play Minions and Get Free Spells of the Same Cost

    Hm, a brawl where I can build my own deck to make the most use out of free spells?

    IT'S DEMON HUNTER TIME

    Won a few games easy with Mana Addict. Threw in Spectral Cutlass and some weapon buffs for good measure.

    Fought one DH who was playing pretty much just the standard tempo deck. Sad, really.

  • Duels of Runeterra Tournament Coverage & Decklists!

    Not sure if anyone here is familiar with Duels of Runeterra, but at this point in time (Runeterra still in Beta) it's one of, if not THE biggest tournament out there right now. This past week was the first week officially sponsored by Team Liquid! =) 

     

    Anyways, for anyone interested we have some footage up of Round 7 Deck Sensei vs. Mathonical and in the description of the video you'll find a link to Decks of Runeterra (official site used for deck sharing for the tournament) which has all of the Top 8 decks listed!

    What's everyone think of these decks and the current state of the meta? Also, has anyone here been a part of these tournaments yet.

    If you haven't joined the tournament yet, the link to the Discord server is also in the video description!

  • This Week's Tavern Brawl is "Battle of Tol Barad" - Play Minions and Get Free Spells of the Same Cost

    My first thought when I saw the brawl:

    “Priest is supposed to be based in tempo and board building right?  So let’s do that!”

    Only played three so far but I beat two Demon Hunters easy, and a Big Druid who was part frustrated by my board control and part from random secret luck.

    Side note: versus both DHs I got a free Metamorphosis and used their own upgraded hero power against them for the finishing blow.

  • This Week's Tavern Brawl is "Battle of Tol Barad" - Play Minions and Get Free Spells of the Same Cost

    Just beat a Big Druid with my Tempo Galakrond Priest.  It really was a ton of fun!  LOL

  • Swaguar's Post-Nerf, Turn 8 Mecha'thun Warlock

    Any large-scale data vs. QM?

    I saw the Jack series, 3-1 to QM... but all the games seemed especially close and one was lost because of a lack of 1-cost spell. 

    I need to craft Hemet... so I am hesitant to sink the dust... since QM is still a bloody tyrant.
