We've had some users report issues with Patreon payments not going through on different payment options in the past. Or the laggy sync up with the site, if you notice any problem with your Patreon, shoot as a PM here or better yet, on Discord and we will help you sort it out.
Is there an issue where the site sometimes doesn't recognise Patreon supporters? I became a supporter right at the end of November, and Patreon took my second payment on 1st January, more than 30 days after the first. Premium hasn't been active since the 30 days passed, despite still being linked to my paying Patreon account.
I don't mind the ads so I am quite happy to live with them (and give you a little extra revenue through them), but this probably wants looking into nonetheless.
Highlander Mage is a perfectly fine deck, but the meta is not kind to it. Like flux said, a few changes to the meta could definitely help Mage, without any unnecessary buffs.
Cheers! Looking forward to seeing further improvements for the website, as well as more traffic and content.
And i was wondering, aftering reading about charity, what are your goals after reaching sustainability?
Do you think there is room for charity purposes? That would imply less immediate revenues i guess, but I would think also a brighter image and a spotlight for the website (with more revenues in perspective too).
I have been a OoC backer since pretty much day one and have loved it. Really looking forward to seeing what 2020 brings to this site. I am also glad to see you are going to be supporting more than just HS. While HS is my primary game and want OoC to continue and this seems like a great way to do it.
Thank you as well for allowing and add free service at a very reasonable cost.
Here's a question for you that i'm 100% asking in earnest:
Say I'm me (which last I checked, I was) and I visit OOC call it 2 times a day, 5 days a week. While here I click a story, maybe comment on a forum post or two, etc. Basic user stuff that discounts the literal hundreds of visits/views during Card Reveal Season. Am I more valuable as an ad revenue stream than as a $2 patreon supporter? Because like Peepopo up there I certainly get more than $2 worth of content per month from this site, so if you'd earn say $4 from me as an ad-seer, I'd be more inclined to do what gets you all the most money
I really only want priest and druid to see a bit more light of day. The new priest cards are kind of terrible in relation to everything else, and druid is just a bit too slow. I feel like even if they nerf every other galakrond, priest's will still be useless as the current highlander decks will still be much stronger than anything priest can do. I just want to feast on some madness here.
I didn't submit a ticket yet since i couldn't find the time, i will submit now but it seems my collection is ok on phone and desktop but still missed in laptop.
I guess uninstall/reinstall will fix the problem for laptop aswell. I will try that first before the ticket.
Thanks for answers. :) I just wondered its a general issue or not and saw that it's not. :)
I get at least two dollars' worth of quality HS analysis out of this site per month, so I'm now your latest patreon backer. Thanks for doing everything you do, OoC crew.
I'm curious what your thoughts are on Vicious Syndicate's opinion of the druid deck you have posted. They don't like Blessing of the Ancients or Soul of the Forest because they require boards to be successful. And statistically, those cards do have the worst drawn win rate. I don't know if what they decided to play instead (Ziliax, SN1P) is any better, but I'd like to know your thoughts!
We're going to be getting some nerfs soon to a bunch of stuff, including Deathrattle Rogue, so there's a decent chance mage can pickup some steam from that. We've also got 35 new cards coming out at some point in the near future which could open up a lot of new and exciting options.
Great idea, we'll see what we can come up with :) We definitely want a dedicated BG page with as much info as possible, nicely laid out for you and this could be part of it ;-)
You will never see anything that overlays the site or intentionally redirects you. If a bad advertisement that redirects does show up, we'll squash it as soon as we know about it.
Just want to say I have zero issue with ads so long as they're not overly invasive or break the site (like when Hearthpwn would occasionally fail to load at all, or when you can't read vS because the pop up closes your mobile browser). You guys need to make some money in order to keep the site working.
I would hold on to any crafting or disenchanting atm. I havent crafted or dusted anything yet besides the nerfed cards. I knew they were doing more nerfs after new year as they warned about it when they did the last nerfs.
Wait one week
Waiting one week would probably do no harm. But with this mindset you sit on lots of dust and dream of all the fun decks you could play right now. We‘ll get 35 new cards end of January, will you wait again? After this will probably come another round of changes and maybe even another special event so you might aswell wait for the next expansion (witch is perfectly reasonable for Raven-cards btw!)
With the so much requestet frequent changes and ladder shake-ups, no craft will ever be „safe“ again. But of all the DoD legendarys, Kronx is for sure the best bet for the highest value
Mage Needs Buff
Highlander mage is a good deck, it is just the wrong meta. Once the nerfs hit and different decks start being played mage might look a bit better.
Also, please no more secret mage, I don't want the deck to get any better than it already is in wild.

Mage Needs Buff
No need for buffs.
Some of the newest Mage cards are already OP, if not flawed entirely. Ancient Mysteries, Arcane Flakmage, Cloud Prince, Dragoncaster, Mana Cyclone itself.
What you actually need are the incoming nerfs, and possibly some new cards to fit the cards above.

I can agree though, I haven't been too excited about Mage in a while even though it is my favourite class.

To dust some cards and craft Kronx or to wait to get him from the pack?
