Since I have most of the cards of this deck and you know, first days of expansion pasts with aggressive Hunters mostly as always (lol) and just because of that rather than rage against those hunters, I've decided to make a deck for first days of the Scholomance Academy.

Since I have all of the other cards except Scholomance Academy ones and they are just 4 copies as 2 Legendary and 2 Epics, it won't be a huge problem for me to craft this. Legendaries both are worthwhile in my opinion; Vectus and Lorekeeper Polkelt, Epics are 2x Trueaim Crescent and i'm not so sure about it but well, since it is a dual-class card, it might be worthwhile too.

Anyways, The deck is here;

Deck ID Not Found

I'm not master of aggressive decks such as burn, it is least played archetype by me so I want to ask for some help here. Are there any suggestions or replacements that you can advise ?

Thanks from now on. :)

(Also just noticed there's no sholomance tag)

So was there any reason that I put my opinion on cards I have weak opinion on this expansion, apart from inflating my pointless post spam and the ability to to go back and think I am stupid for overrating/underrating them? :D

Hi,

Is it possible to pin the thread containing all the revealed cards (so far) into the card discussion forum and on the first page?

Right now I cannot find it and it's really annoying to have to navigate through all the pages to see the reveals.

Please put it somewhere visible and pin it :)

Thanks!

have been revealed up to now ? So how many will be revealed in a few hours ?

How many Legendary / Epic are missing ?

Never before have we seen such a level of region balance in Legends of Runterra, which necessitates a new ranking system for my region tier list series, we will now be using a simple tier 1 to 3 ranking. Once again ranking are based on two things, the first being the number of OP decks being played competitively, and number 2 is the variety of lists that can be played semi competitively.

Tier 1 - P and Z, Bilgewater

Bilgewater allegience is proving to be the control deck of choice now that healing isn't as useful with the absence of aggro.

There are a number of pinging effects that can be buffed with kegs, and riptide rex is a board clear on a body

Yoink is still great on merchant and grifter offering insane card advantage

As for P and Z, Ezreal is an easy wincon for control decks, and Jinx has been buffed through her followers to be an aggro alternative

Vi and Heimer are still fine, even if they don't have a home at the moment.

Tier 2 - Noxious, Demacia, Freijord, Ionia, Shadow

The big changes here is that the Noxious nerfs have had the region rely more on it's midrange identity, which is very healthy

Freijord champs have been tweaked so they aren't the best in the game anymore

Demacia has room to be the best aggro region again, with Lux being there for control decks

Ionia is just doing it's thing, Zed is fine, Karma is fine and they serve their aggro and control lists effectively

Shadow is still doing it's thing in Deep and They who Endure

Tier 3 - Nothing

If we see a few tweaks to bilgewater allegience and Ezreal and riptide rex - I honestly believe that the game will be essentially balanced

At least till the new set releases

Take it easy everyone

Hello guys, for the people who ordered the 85 pack bundle, how do you plan on opening the golden packs, first or last?

As for myself, I'll have around 150 total packs when the expansion hits (meaning around 145 normal packs) and I'm considering opening the golden packs first, since if I were to open then last, I fear I would have most of the cards already, resulting in poor luck.

What are your thoughts about this?

I will be playing this deck day 1

Shiny new busted cards to make new players want to play hearthstone, while at the same time making long time players hate playing hearthstone. IDK maybe they think the people coming in will be more than the people leaving, but negativity bias exists for a reason. People remember when they get shit on over and over by DH more than they'll remember winning against them. I will not play this game when the expansion drops. I'm not paying activision for this shit. And i'm not going to play until this class gets fixed. And hopefully others are just like me to make activision finally stop releasing busted cards that are intended to be busted and not fun to play against.

It's literally cheating. Yes, you are climbing, but it's not your skill- it's Blizzard's oversight. I'm in disbelief that they really thought making two more spells in order to achieve Time Warp would change a thing. You could make it 12 and it would still be effective, balanced even.

I'm thankful that I'm not the kind of person that jumps on board to mindless, no soul decks just because they work, I really am. To the many Quest Mages out there, I want to tell you that your wins are meaningless. Every satisfaction that you got from victory was no different than a PARTICIPATION TROPHY. You are not achieving anything. You are jumping on ship to something that is broken and will be nerfed again.

It's pathetic if you think your playing ability had anything to do with it. Dwell on it a second and feel lousy about yourselves, please.

I have been playing a lot of Galakrond Warlock, but I noticed, that most of my opponents were Shamans. Against those I really struggled to win, so i looked up, which deck was best against Shaman. Apparently Holy-Wrath-Paladin is doing pretty well against them and since I had all the necessary cards, I thought I'd give it a try. I played 10 games with it, but not a single Shaman (mostly Rogue, which is the strongest deck against Holy-Wrath-Paladin :D).

Then I switched back to Warlock and I faced 3 Shamans in a row, after that I stopped playing. The last SEVEN games with my Warlock Deck were against Shaman.

I'm not salty, I have a positive winrate after all, I just find it suspiciously unexpectable (statistically speaking). Has someone of you encountered a similar situation?

Throughout the Scholomance Academy  Cinematic trailer there is actually a clearly defined student that you see throughout the whole trailer

First he gets drenched in the wave scene (and is clearly  on the ground right before that)

Next  he makes a hairy mustache spell and mocks another student.

Then he mentions "Corpses" in the academy yard and gets a sheep head

Later we seen him cheering on a Demon Hunter student only to get pulled down into a dark room,  and probably got his soul stolen.

Also he is in a bubble in the thumbnail.

Just some constructive criticism will suffice.

Is there any information on how the dual class cards will be shown in the collection manager?

Do they appear for both classes?

Yesterday, I started RCT for the first time on my new computer.

Of course, what better place is there to start than Forest Frontiers, the very first scenario in the game, and one of the most iconic.

This got me thinking, how many people here are huge fans of this game (and the second game)?

I will update it as new cards show up. I think it's pretty cool

You might know that the Hearthstone Deck Tracker tool works with BGs, too.

Not sure if this is good tho, since for now it just made me saltier; here's an example:

Actually my unluckiest moment ever (maybe it's not very clear, but my opponent got lethal).

Feel free to share yours!

The game is fiesta, so I went full fiesta, too. :D

Playing Gala Evolve Shaman and losing to most aggro (especially Paladin), but oh boy, do those funny high-rolls completely obliterate Priests! :)

After I spawned Khadgar, why my Invocation of Frost and Devoted Maniac didn't summon additional 2/1 Elementals?

We haven't even seen half of all the cards yet, so its perhaps a little premature to go with zoo.

But just to make a few observations on your deck;

Gandling and tekahn in the same deck? A little too heavy, dont you think so? Also, vectus and erkh as well?  Seems a little less like zoo than midrange lackey deck.

Your deck only has Nightshade Matron as the only activator for Hand of Gul'dan, and with Sea Giant in the deck, while there not being many cheap minions, means half the time you'll be discarding giant or worse still, have no chance of playing matron since your hand is already full of stuff.

Also, with not a lot of cheap stuff, and having little to no rush minions aside from matron Imprisoned Scrap Imp is virtually useless.

I'd go full zoo, remove vectus, and erkh. Replace with Magic Carpet, and the usual suspects of 1 drops. Also add Soulfire and Expired Merchant so Hand of Gul'dan actually gets discarded more often than not.

As for gandling, I'm a little convinced that he can only feature in a deck without imprisoned scrap imp and carpet, but maybe the 4 eggs are good enough reason to play him anyway. But tekahn is still probably the man for the job here. The lackeys can still be good under gandling, but magic carpet wont work with him.

I usually make 20+ decks during card reveals until the expansion is released and by the next expansion I want to get rid of them of all but It would take a tedious amount of time to do so. 

My suggestion is to have a box you can check off to delete multiple decks at a time and other things like that more effeciently.

Hey, folks! Pretty big patch coming to Mythgard this Monday. No card changes, but it affects a few keywords quite drastically. Here's the gist of it:

Focused X - "Increases damage dealt by X while fighting a minion or attacking a player through the opposite lane." This keyword will now apply even if the minion's strength is less than or equal to zero. Note that it doesn't actually increase the minions strength for the purposes of abilities like Revolutionary Totem (minions with strength 4 or greater can't attack). If an attacking minion with Focused also has Overrun, the focus damage will continue to add to the damage dealt to the defending player from overrun. An example of this in action is a 0/1 minion with Focused 10 and Overrun attacking into a 0/1 defender. The defender will take 1 damage and die, and the defending player will take 9 damage from overrun.

Slayer X - "Deal X extra damage to minions in combat." This keyword now only applies to damage dealt to a minion and won't add to Overrun (though it can increase the amount of overrun damage done, as per the example below). Unchanged from the previous version, Slayer doesn't apply if the minion has zero or less strength. An example of the new functionality of Slayer in action is a 3/1 minion with Slayer 10 and Overrun attacking into a 0/1 defender. The defender will take 1 damage (from the Slayer) and die, and the defending player will take 3 damage (from the minion's strength) from overrun. Note that prior to 0.18.4, the defending player would have taken 12 damage from overrun. With the new patch, the extra 9 "slayer" damage doesn't carry over to the damage the attacker deals with overrun. However, also note that because the slayer damage is used "before" the minion's strength, the total overrun damage is increased – just not as much as it would have been prior to this patch.

Fragile X - "Increases any damage a minion takes by X." Much like Slayer, this keyword no longer contributes directly to Overrun damage. For example, if a 3/1 attacker with Overrun attacks a 0/1 defender with Fragile 10, the defending player will now take 2 damage from overrun. In this case, 1 "point" of damage from the attacker's strength applies to the defender, who takes an additional 2 "points" of damage (enough to kill it) due to Fragile. The remaining 2 "points" of the attacker's strength then carry through to overrun. Note that prior to this patch, the defending player would have taken 12 points of damage from overrun.

Hi

As the title says.

I am not talking about Battleground.

I am looking for an overview of card pools for normal cards, so that I could see which spells I could discover when I play a "discover a spell" card.

Same would be awesome for minion cards to see e.g. what 2 mana minions I could summon and maybe even possible chances.

Thanks!

Edit: Yes,  I could look at the whole card collection, but that's just not convenient ;-)

So the title may be confusing but it's kinda relevant, and I thought it'd be funny to use a song lyric from one of the old Tom n Jerry episodes I recall...

Anyhow,  here's my dilemma.  I was a young 20 something back when WoW originally released.  Played it from Vanilla---> Wrath of the Lich King.  Quit shortly into Wrath due to feeling like I was lost in the game at times, and after taking a break felt so far behind that I could "never catch up".  

Fast forward through the last 16 years.  I ended up playing vanilla, BC, and wrath private servers for small stints here and there, before they inevitably died out due to propaganda from competing private servers or due to C&D orders (i.e. shut down). 

As of 2019, played classic wow at it's re-release (re-launch?) with a friend.  I was the one to convince him to play.  Then in December of 2019 had some person issues I had to take care of and deemed it was necessary to cancel my sub and take a break for awhile.  Now here we are.  Friend is wondering if I'll ever come back.  He isn't pressuring me, but I told him I'd been thinking about it the past few months.

The problem: I don't really like classic wow.  Yes I enjoy it more than say current wow.  But if I'm being truthful, the class balance, itemization, etc was horrible in vanilla.  I don't want the super-heroes of modern wow where every player is the savior of the alliance/horde and can swarms of enemies with a snap of their fingers...but I also don't want vanilla wow where itemization is crap, your player looks like Joker on laundry day, and all that.  

The problem part 2: My favorite expansion is BC.  I love the theme, the atmosphere, the quality of life updates, the flying mounts, the gear. Everything.  Everything in BC was just way better.  Ultimately I was honest with myself and the only reason I played Classic WoW and encouraged my friend to play it, was in the hopes that some day Blizzard would release "Classic BC" and I'd be able to relive that time period again.  

The thing is...We are at LEAST 1 year away, if not longer....before that is a even a smidge of a reality.  And I'm growing bored with the games I'm playing (Teamfight Tactics, Legends of Runeterra, Hearthstone, some Diablo3 here and there...)

The problem part3:  Part of the reason I took a break from classic wow in December was because of job issues and stability in my relationship.  Both have been resolved now and things are much better...but now I'm afraid that the one thing that enticed me (raiding, doing dungeons, etc....waiting for BC) isn't actually feasible.  

Even if I don't raid (a 2-4 hour commitment once or twice a week) dungeons in Vanilla don't hold the same attention as BC.  Secondly,  I thought well I could farm gold, just casually do dungeons, level alts, etc in the meantime but there's not a ton of fun replayability just dungeoning in vanilla for me over and over again on multiple alts.  Lastly my favorite class was a Blood Elf paladin, so leveling alts doesn't do much for me because my main in BC is gonna have to be re-rolled/start fresh as it is.  

So my conundrum is: Should I even try to play classic WoW in the hopes that BC Classic ever comes around?  Am I living too much in the past (I guess you could say others who play classic are living in the past as well...)  Just looking for some advice on what to do, and how to move forward being a 30-something person and realizing that I can't necessarily commit the same amount of time that I used to when I was 20, and not sure how to enjoy WoW when the one thing in WoW I really enjoyed but hated the extensive time commitment to was raiding...

Thanks in advance!
