Hey all,

I haven't played much HS since April, with the new changes. I did rank up a bit at that point to get some of the first-time rewards, but I don't remember where I stopped ranking up.

Can anyone tell me the answer to this question: are there still first-time rank-up rewards? Do they exist? I'm asking because I feel pretty confident that I never reached Diamond 5 since the new system was put in place. Just got there now. And I got nothing for it, other than the usual epic being added to my chest. Did they discontinue the first-time rewards? I assumed that those first-time rewards were a permanent addition that would always be there for everyone to get the first time they reach a new rank floor.

Thanks for the replies.

Does anyone know whether we do have time only until 12th November to get the new card back or will it be also included as part of the new rewards structure?

Could this make Quest Druid viable next expansion? It's a 2 card combo that basically is a better Reno Jackson you get 2 6/6 minions amd 24 hp and you can potentially do it twice.

Here's my take on quest druid:

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Three cards or 8/8 in stats on the cheap. Love it. This one two punch cannot fail. 

Here is my replay:

https://hsreplay.net/replay/KuFjpH72LTHbvKQM2i7WRn#turn=6b

On my turn 6 I play Polkelt and on my turns 7 and 8 I draw 1 cost cards as if Polkelt reverse ordered my deck!?

Am I missing something? Can someone explain the reason to me..

One of the deals in MTGA today is 500 gems for 300 gems/1500 gold. Get it while it lasts!

How do you guys experience it? 

Do you like sorakench? Do you like dragons and the new landsmarks?

There wasn't much talk lately so i wonder how active everyone is in LoR right now...

For me this expansions was quite disappointing.

The heal package -while having clear counters- is just absurdly powerful against damage oriented decks and is very polarising imo. Some cards like Soraka and Star Spring seem undercosted for their effect and while Tahm Kench is not op in my oppinion, he is just soooo annoying as a concept (4 mana removal engine). In general runeterra went much into a an value-engine-oriented way, causing more grindy games. If we for example take The Howling Abyss Vaults of Helia The Slaughter Docks and Noxkraya Arena we have 4 different landmarks that create very huge value over time, which encourages to play control oriented decks and in general slow gameplans. Decks build in that way feel really boring to play agains although i got to admit that the Vaults of Helia at least enables neat combos that are more interesting than the other 3 landmarks. 

While many players hate it and ask for a rework, I really like the The University of Piltover which really embraces the flavour of experiementation. While it is weird that it is a Jinx support card it actually can lead to weird and hilerious plays and takes more skill to use than people give it credit for (since you got to make up a plan for the random cards gained every turn) also it clearly has decks where it is good in (discard aggro).

About dragons i don't need to repeat my oppinion that i gave already...

But what do you guys think? Is the "new" meta cool? Do you like the games you play and would you change something about the new cards? 

I'm really curious what you have to say :)

Shouldn't start next week? Is there any detail released ?

Priest got a legendary spell last expansion and Mage is spell oriented deck so it only makes sense. I just randomly thought this and so I go to check if there is an upcoming card with a carnival tent in it and there is. I am guessing its the legendary mage spell.

For those who either couldn't complete the event or couldn't play it for some reason. If there is no way then its not fair for those people because at least one of them has become meta already.

Hey there Custom Hearthstone Friends

So I've been playing hearthstone for a LONG time now (almost 6 years now...doesn't time fly).  For about as long as I have been playing the game, I've been making custom cards for it.  So I figured some people may enjoy looking at all the random ideas I have.  As for why I'm sharing this in a google doc and not a list on here reason 1.  Dude this post would be so long there are over 550 cards in there and reason 2 I'm lazy.  So yea here's the doc

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Cp61vME58YCa2qFhCqbWQjUyHXr6wSXn_v_zuIAh7UU/edit?usp=sharing

Idk if anyone gonna go through all those cards, but if you do, I hope you enjoy it!  Comments/Criticisms are welcome.  I've made a lot of cards; doesn't mean I'm any good at it.  If posting a google docs link isn't allowed for some reason let me know and I'll figure another way to share these.

Thanks Again!

Welcome to the rules and guidelines of Out of Cards.

All members of the site are governed by these rules and staff will use them to decide whether or not you are allowed to stay on the site. We are a fairly relaxed community but at the same time we don't want to deal with nonsense so some rules are required.

If at any point in time you require clarification for a rule, please do not hesitate to reach out to a member of staff.

We reserve the right to update these rules at any time. It is your duty as a member of the Out of Cards community to stay up to date on our rules and guidelines. We also reserve the right to apply any rules we desire that are not listed here.

1) All Written Communication on the Site Must be in English

2.1) Spam

We do not allow spam of any kind on Out of Cards.

2.2) Referral Links

You may not use referral links outside of designated threads without prior approval of the administration.

2.3) Bumping Threads

You may not "bump" a thread by leaving a reply to it that contains nothing important.

The original poster of a thread, or "OP", may leave a reply if they add significant content to their original post provided they let everyone know what they updated with it.

2.4) YouTube Videos

YouTube videos are generally allowed on the website and we do not require prior contact to allow you to post them. They must be relevant to the content they are being posted under.

3) Votes - Upvotes, Downvotes, and Ratings

We taking voting on the site quite seriously. We have no problems closing accounts that are in violation of any of our voting policies without prior warning.

3.1) Vote Manipulation

Under no circumstance will you use multiple accounts, or ask other users, to increase or decrease votes on any piece of content on the website.

3.2) Vote Harassment

You will not target negative votes towards any one user on the site. It is okay to not agree with someone but it is not okay to hold that against them.

You will also not ask other users to downvote a specific member of the site.

3.3) Vote Begging

We do not allow you to beg for votes on written content without the prior consent of the administration. This includes, but is not limited to, providing "unlock goals" for written content (such as a Deck Guide).

We are unable to hold community members accountable when they don't reach "unlock goals" so we're banning the practice outright.

4) Forbidden Topics

There are several topics you may not discuss at all on Out of Cards.

4.1) Cheats and Hacks

You may not post any cheats and hacks for games.

In-game exploits are not covered by this and are generally allowed to be discussed though we may opt to delete threads if they are harmful to the game.

4.4) Illegal Content

Content that is generally considered illegal should not be posted on Out of Cards. Don't be dumb.

4.5) Personal Information

You may not post personal information about yourself or anyone else. This includes real names, email addresses, home or work addresses, and more. Don't be dumb.

4.6) Politics

We do not allow political discussion. There are many other places to discuss politics, a gaming-driven website is not one of them. Keep your beliefs to yourself.

4.7) Religion

We do not allow religious discussion. Much like political discussion, a gaming website is not the right place for it.

There has been some interview recently with Cora and Liv Breeden, where they talked about Expansions Mini-Sets and two things caught my eye:

• You will get cards from the mini-set via Madness at the Darkmoon Faire card packs.
• Duplicate protection will guarantee if you've collected all the commons from Darkmoon Faire when the mini-set drops, you will get commons from the new mini-set.

So does this mean, f.e. if I buy the 80 preorder, is it good idea to open packs till I have all the commons and rares and keep the rest of the packs for this mini expansion? If so, how many packs do you think I should keep, so I could get all the common and rares from the new mini set? Or should I open all at once and buy the rest with gold when the mini set drops? What do you think? What would you do? Care to hear your thoughts.

Thanks :)

Continuing a discussion in a dedicated thread that doesn't have HP in the name because, ahem, fuck that heap of trash.

Quote From KANSAS

Quote From Erodos

Lastly, I would like more incentives for discussing decks. Every expansion release cycle you guys do a great job in incentivising users to discuss the newly revealed cards, with titles and stuff. I think if you would add similar incentives to regularly voting and commenting on decks, that would drive up engagement with them. Even if just one person is incentivised through this to comment on a deck, that would lead to more people commenting as a result, since people are more likely to comment on a deck on which already has been commented. The precise implementation of these incentives I do not have a developed idea for though.

It would be cool if you could earn the new currency by voting on a commenting on decks. I don't know exactly how this new gold system is going to work, but it would be cool if once a week we had a sort of "quest" to comment on at least one deck and vote on at least 3. Really, the best way for the decks on this site to get more attention is for us to simply give them more attention. 

Quests are going to be a thing! I don't want to get too far into it all just yet but Daily, Weekly, and Seasonal Quests are going to happen. There will also be larger quests that will require the entire community to participate in to complete that will equally reward everyone that took part in them.

Seasonal? What the Flux?

So, yeah. I'll talk a bit about that now but don't expect anything on that until next year. Even staff members don't really know the whole plan behind this yet because I don't know it all yet.

The idea is that we'll have a few themed seasons during the year. It might be 4, it might be 6 (either every 3 or 2 months, likely trying 3 to start) and during that time, there will be exclusive stuff to earn and special themed content sorta like Oozefest. The idea is to try and change it up every season so things don't always feel the same but there will definitely be some kind of repeat content. I've always wanted to do something similar to a Battle Pass on the site, even during the HP days but nothing was ever approved to get worked on, so we'll have some form of specialized, seasonal progression.

There will 100% be something exclusive for premium members during each themed season.

Encouraging interaction on the site remains tough though. We can't encourage people too much because that could lead to fatigue or it'll lead to a whole lot of nonsense. One point that has been brought up in the past with encouraging voting and commenting on new cards is that we get low-quality discussion. I both agree and disagree on that topic, something I know I've talked about a few times in the past on the forums. The main issue is how do we avoid that in general.

I can't really create a quest to go and upvote something. It might work for the forums and comments, or even news articles themselves, but asking someone to go an upvote a deck is going to cause problems. Maybe limiting something like deck voting to once a week would help, I don't know. It could also be interesting to try and establish a "new queue" for deck guides and to ask people to go through it and provide feedback. Maybe you'd have to have some form of "certification" before you would be eligible for quests like that, like having a certain post count or account age. Again, I don't know but it is something we need to tread carefully on.

I do like what having the Shop and Gold will do for us though. We can give out rewards a lot more freely to people without giving out a big reward. Letting everyone save up and buy what they desire will be nice. The hard part will be having enough stuff available that people want to actively spend their gold. I have 3 additional ideas for site cosmetics/customization that we'll roll out in the new year, with one of those things coming with the Holiday event.

I also want to give all the staff a weekly amount of currency to freely give out to posts they deem appropriate. It might only be 10 or 20 Gold, but they'll have the option to give it out to decks and comments that they find meet their own special criteria. Maybe it was funny, maybe it was high quality. Having more personalized handouts adds some fun to the system, especially if people know who is giving it to them.

^ That, I also want to let some community members do too, once we figure out a solid criteria for enabling it. Maybe we'll start by giving premium members an allowance to hand out each month and see where that takes us.

I also want to put together a feed so everyone can see what comments are earning gold. I guess its sort of like Reddit Gold if you are familiar with it, just with a different ultimate purpose.

The hardest part about all this though at the end of the day is having the time to work to implement everything. So damn few hours in the day and I already don't push enough content onto our homepage, love everyone on the staff that does that for us!

Anyway, here's a new thread to talk about encouragement stuff. GO!

This is a very small idea, but even though I really like the community bingo during card reveal season, I end up "forgeting it exists" because the thread gets lost underneath all the card reveal threads. So, my idea was to put a shortcut on the expansion page that lead to the community bingo thread.

I'm sorry.

Hi, I don't know what is my current title but it seems bugged, it looks like a raw data: COMMENT_COUNT_25_HS

I won't change my title so you can use my account as test ;)

Competition Theme: I'm Rooting For You

It's time to enter the Tavern! The best minions have to be versatile, after all.

• You must create a minion which will appear in both traditional Hearthstone and Battlegrounds
  • You will need to submit two cards - one with a normal mana cost, and one with a Battlegrounds Tier
  • A comprehensive guide on how to create a Battlegrounds card in Hearthcards can be found here, but to summarise, you need to click the small settings option between the input and the preview

Wailor wants us to take on the Battlegrounds this week, so make sure your minions are ready to fight!

As always, I can be reached through Discord or here on the site via PM if you have any issues to report.

Discussion Thread Rules

No thread rules were added to this season. Please populate and manually edit this thread with them.

Small suggestion to improve the profile page visually by adding a bit of opacity to the background of the member-avatar CSS class by using a RGBA color instead, just like the member stats.

In this way, the beautiful profile header background is less covered up by the member-avatar DIV which becomes more relevant when the username is a bit longer (like mine) 😄

Hello, I've got the following bug: this deck https://outof.cards/hearthstone/decks/19977-silasoctosari-mill-rogue according to site has a carfting cost of 1600 due to me missing Silas Darkmoon, which I got for free on login on oct 22nd. I just synched my collection trough the deck tracker plugin 5 mins ago, got the message that ooc collection was synched and still having the issue after refreshing the page.

Been wanting to increase my photoshop skills lately, post some prompts below and i'll make the one i like the best(or maybe multiple) here's the base image.

It's probably one of my favorite pics, but if you have ideas i don't mind if you post your own base images.

Though keep in mind i am not super great with it, this is for practice.
