Indeed, i encountered this deck (or a very similar one) and with recent buffs it is now a fairly solid Midrange deck, able fend-off against nearly any opponent.
Not really salty, but i just wanted to share my new perversion:
Reaching target rank floor in Wild (r5), and then enjoy conceding against ANY Priest i encounter, without even waiting for mulligan (because they are 90% Big Priest anyway).
They might enjoy the free win, but they won't have the satisfaction of sh1tting all over the board with their broken cards. That's a tiny but meaningful satisfaction to me.
And i lose nothing in the process (maybe 1 star, and the loading time, but i don't care). And i spare myself some real salt.
I'm definitely here giving Out of Cards a legit shot. There's only a couple websites that I like for HS, so it's nice to have a good one that aggregates info. Combine this with reddit and I feel like you get most everything you need. I'm looking forward to the collection tracker support!
Concede when you are fairly sure you're out of steam, compared with the opponent's estimated resources.
Don't give up hope too early ofc, stop for a second and rationally sum up what's left for you to play, believe in your deck as much as possible, but spare yourself some brain when against a clearly desperate case, and use it in your next, hopefully more favorable, game.
Accept the cruel justice of RNGesus, have faith in it, and move on.
Sometimes you lose and sometimes you win, you will generally end up being one side or the other of the good luck.
Just breathe, keep playing until you get luckier...don't stop on a lost game (I feel very energised on the days I start by thrashing an opponent!).
I personally feel far worse when I lose due to my own mistake than due to bad luck...it's a game much closer to poker than chess...skill matters but luck applies VERY much.
Likewise in some cases I felt the victory was too easy and I got lucky or the opponent was beginner/unlucky.
The whole game for me is about factoring luck, and crafting a deck is all about controlling luck and minimising its effects.
I have often suffered from RnG-triggered rages after games of Hearthstone - which surprised me greatly as I have never experienced anything similar in any game I've played before (including CS:GO which can be very triggering).
Random (seemingly unfair) circumstances in the game can cause a sea of red mist to descend and you often find yourself wanting to curse and/or scream at the screen or something similar.
Seeing the opponent get god-draws and perfect answers to everything can be one such cause.
I have found (for me personally) that sometimes you have to do something to shake yourself out of that feeling of "Reeeee!!!" somehow. One thing I will sometimes do (if I am alone), is to stop and think about what I am doing / imagining (suitable death and punishment for my opponent, etc) and simply laugh at myself and forcibly tell myself how silly it is to get so worked up over a game. The wors that can happen is I tell myself to "F--- off" or something :-D
And if I can't calm down, I certainly don't start another game. I know for a fact I will lose and be increasingly more angry through it and come off worse. Instead I'll get up, go make a cup of tea, go play with the kids or simply do something else. The best way to deal with Hearthstone Rage (if you can't calm yourself down) is get rid of Hearthstone for a bit. :-D
I feel like the best way to cope with situations like this is just simply to take a break from Hearthstone for a couple of hours \ a day. I think that ultimately the game should be played for fun, and when it stops being fun (whether due to a lack of updates or situations in which the universe decides you are cursed for the day) - I just simply move on to doing something else.
I think that if you just force yourself through more and more matches like this - you would get burned out quick. And kicking furniture around would only make your mood sour when you would need it later ;-)
This brawl seems very poorly thought out. It claims to give each deck a mech-themed deck, but in reality this is far from the truth.
As priest - you get a spell priest deck with a some removal and some card stealing - the only mech in the deck is Zilliax. As warlock - you get some removal and big minions, coupled with Arch-Villain Rafaam. Seems like this deck tries to cheat big guys out - but so far I've yet to see anyone actually pull this off.
On the polar opposite of this - rogue gets a semi-decent Pogo-Hopper deck with a good amount of synergy, and paladins get a standard-ish mech deck with a lot of magnetic minions. The sheer power gap between the decks and the false claims that the decks are centered around mech synergy, make it so that this brawl is only good for the free pack.
Sometimes your opponent just has the best possible cards. Say a perfect curve, the exact right response for your board, having lethal just in time, or exactly the right removal (yes Warrior I look at you). I can't help feel a little desparate and sometimes just concede far too early since I do not believe I can come back.
What is the best way to cope with this emotions? Just play on and play as good as possible? Get more chocolate? Kick the door/dog/wall?
I really prefer this to Hearthpwn's old color scheme. And real coders always use light text over dark background.
Yes but when writing code you will pay a huge atention to your spacings ,so you know where your clauses begin/end hence the beautify feauture included in programing languages.If i write a 200 character long string in 1 line and give you a smaller monitor then 1280x1024 resolution like a 800x600 to make the spacing randomly distributed i doubt you'd say its eye friendly.
Playing since Grand Tournament (or just before, I don't remember exactly), and I have only opened 1 golden legendary, Dr. Boom, Mad Genius. I have barely played it, I don't play warrior.
Well last night I lost almost every game I played, did not matter what deck I chose. Opponents were out-mechanizing me, top-farting shenanigans like Leeroy's, destroying my 6 mountain-giant board with a huntard top-decked poisonous-hit-all-for-one-dmg combo, doing 23 dmg at the last possible moment with only Myra in hand and some insane rogue combo's and luck, getting the 5-mana combo with Khadgar and you are looking at 4 8-8's on turn 5, my Book of specters destroying my Pocket galaxy for two games in a row...cmon! What are the odds.
Like many others, having 2 settings atleast would be a huge improvement. Looking at this dark background is just straining the eyes.Im not saying that hearthpwn background was better, but i could spend way more time on it cause my eyes didn't get as tired ,background feelt like i was reading a book really soothing .
I also think the Resolution of the monitor is playing a HUGE role here if im reading this on my home PC with a 1920x1200 or higher resolution , the light gray sidepanells help and the text is in X lines.But if im reading on laptop on the road /work on a screen 1280x1024 or lower i only see the dark black body with the hundreds of white lines(X times 4) ,its dificult and i need to concentrate so my eye dosn't jump from line to line from word to word .Hence the strain and headache follow

Deck name in code copy
Hey, quick quality of life request!
Is there any chance you could get the deck code copy feature to include the name of the deck when it's imported into hearthstone.
It works like that on HS Replay and is handier than having to rename "Custom Priest" each time!
Keep up the great work!

I hadn't encountered this bug. Very odd, especially since echo cards do work as you'd want them to with these buffs.
