Praise Be To Yogg

And Also To You 

Slightly curious why we get an extra shaman hero after so recently getting one for that class (Rastakhan)

Not a complaint, just curious.

That's even better, most people here probably already use deck tracker, so it'll be pretty seamless.

Combo decks are usually the least tolerant of substitutions -- something to keep in mind if you're on a budget.

Also, just call it a "combo deck." It's not really OTK if your plan isn't necessarily to deal 30 damage in one turn. If you're counting on chip damage, it's definitely not OTK.

Quote From tony

I suppose if I were to confess anything it would be that I'm that player that squelches my opponent after emoting a greeting and then saying nothing more for the rest of the game. I don't even emote "well played" after taking the winning shot. Maybe that's my rudeness, not sure. It definitely stems from a desire to concentrate and not be distracted by the emote system.

This is perfectly acceptable behavior. If you don't like the emote system, no rule of etiquette obliges you to use it.

As for the OP, I hope they get some therapy now that they have admitted to themself that their behavior is somewhat toxic. Using copied decks is fine, but the rest of that stuff is just pathetic. Selfishly trying to ruin other people's enjoyment of the game is an inappropriate response to losing. The correct response is to try to improve so you can beat them at the game. If you don't think you can do that, it's time to stop caring so much whether you win or lose, or stop playing entirely.

Netdecking is just another form of min/maxing, which you will never, ever get rid of in video games. Someone is ALWAYS going to crunch the numbers.

I've always thought that Team 5 could do more cards like [Hearthstone Card (Curious Glimmerroot/card] which mildly punishes those who use predictable decks. 

At the very least, it might encourage people to be a little bit more experimental with their deck choices…

I think the problem is that you're going in two different directions. The deck would be stronger if you picked one and ran with it.

But The Storm Bringer is still a weak card even after the buff. Any version of this deck is probably better without it. If you want to take advantage of having a lot of tokens, that's what Bloodlust is for.

Sweet, so it's just a weird visual glitch, got it

Dang it!  Thanks to the rollout delay, I had to do work at work today.  All day!

It was barbaric.

Good Job, Blizz xD

"Everyone says they hate it and don't do it" what? No. It's just a vocal minority who keeps complaining about netdecks because the homebrewed decks they come up with aren't strong enough to compete in the meta. Rather than actually trying to improve their decks they go for the easy way out and complain that everyone is an evil, scum of the earth netdecker.

Netdecking happens in every card game. It is something that is inevitable and cannot, nor should, be prevented.

A stale meta isn't the fault of these scummy netdeckers either. That's entirely on Blizzard and their balancing qualities. If there's only a few decks out there that see play, it's because those are significantly stronger than the rest. That's not the player's fault.

Marry me.

They aren’t missing cards.  Look at the deck in my collection. It’ll be 30/30. After that it won’t say missing cards anymore

I heard the show got canceled because the producers drew nothing but land, like, six turns in a row.

Quote From FortyDust

Not only is that boring, but it also makes you worse at the game.

Yeah, I acknowledged in my OP that it makes me worse at the game.

lol all my decks have missing cards after I got update and logged in? now i gotta try and remember what's missing...

On my last match to rank 5 had this mech paladin who had this gigantic 17/something on board and by chance I had my Omega devestator and militia commander to kill the last big guy and win the match but this guy used FUCKING Mojomaster Zihi! WHO THE ACTUAL FUCK USES THAT CARD

It destroys warriors to their very last essence both physically and mentally just so you know

Quote From Lightspoon

It seems that Team 5 is trying to move HS gameplay to a more value based game, instead of heavily relay on aggro/tempo solutions.

I would love if the entire game shift more toward long-term plans instead of ending at turn 5 or 6 because of smorc.

I wouldn't take this as a long-term goal. It can change in a heartbeat when the next expansion drops.

Okay, I suppose one pack for every hour without the game... so 23 pack? Thank you Blizzard, is nice of you (joking, obviously) 

Yippee, finally I can go back to playing hearthstone while I'm supposed to be working :D

I often switch to the class that makes me saltiest to play against. The result is that I either have a nice win streak, or I learn how to beat it and stop being salty. Win-win.

I can't imagine limiting myself to one class. Not only is that boring, but it also makes you worse at the game.

Does that mean that shaman is going to be become as hard as Lei-Shen on Heroic was? Overcharge me some pylons!

iOS is up now. 'bout time too.

I am guessing this is also causing the issue I am having with trying to log in through Amazon App on Bluestacks (since it is technically a mobile client). Right now, I just get stuck in an Update loop when I try to log in.

Hopefully everything runs smoothly now!
