Hello, sorry if I missed where this is.

Is there a way to identify decks that are identical?

The three scenarios I wondered were:

1. Browsing the decklists, identical decks, you might want to click through to one with the guide filled out, or lots of discussion?
2. You found a decklist elsewhere are and wonder if it is already there
3. You build a deck, and wonder if it has already been submitted

Hi guys,

I know it's mayorly early to speculate about the next expansion theme, but when i was reading the funnies on the cardbacks it said on the new raven one: "could it have been Medihv all along?". Which made me think, would it be that simple? 

As Khadgar (wielder of Medihv's staff) already made an appearance it would be logic to think that Medihv actually will make an appearance again in the next expansion as the "mysterious prophet" and with a theme related to the lore below?

As it states in lore: "He was slain shortly after by his apprentice, Khadgar and his childhood friend, Lothar.

Shortly before the beginning of the Third War, Medivh returned as a mysterious prophet, manipulating events in order to arrange the formation of a last-ditch alliance between the mortal races on Kalimdor, guiding them to victory at the Battle of Mount Hyjal.

He was slain shortly after by his apprentice, Khadgar and his childhood friend, Lothar.

What do you guys think?

Note: in the event that I missed anything on the forum and this was actually discussed, I actually read alot of the cards but not alot of forum stuff)

I can't help but feel that highlander decks are so dull to play and play against. Once you know your opponent has only 1 of each spell (beyond discoverable shenanigans), playing around things becomes trivial. Most of the time, it's correct to gamble they don't have that perfect answer. If not, yay! You won!  If they did, scramble for Plan B.

I get that it's fun to make each card selected that much more meaningful, but the play and counter-play seem stale. 

Anyone else agree?

I've been laddering (ranks 10-3) with Control Shaman for 3 seasons. Usually the game was VERY favoured against warrior but the introduction of Armagedillo and Tomb Warden toggled the matchup. :/ 

The deck still seems to be favoured against Druid (Quest), Rogue (apart from hard aggro), Priest (all of them) and Quest Shaman, to name the meta decks. 

My current iteration looks as follows, and I'm quite contend with it. BUT I'D LOVE TO HEAR SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENTS!

Why no Highlander all the way through? - Because Earthshock and Hex are just so good against Priest, Paladin and Warrior!

guys, this deck is super fun - suggestions and improvements welcomed!

Hey, I'm looking to create some custom graphics, effects similar to Shadow Form or Cursed Blade, that appear over top hero portraits in the game. Has anyone pulled these various graphics out of the game in a usable format? Does anyone have homemade versions that approximate the visual effects?

Here's an image showing the stuff I'm talking about. Cursed Blade debuffing the hero and weapon with a red glow. The frozen and immune and shadow form hero effects too. Also, anyone have the reborn graphic?

Hello fellow Arena players! What do you think is the most powerful class right now? How has the bucket change affected your runs?

After getting this one from Blazing Invocation, I'm pretty sure my vote goes for this one (especially as it's epic):

EDIT: How do you display golden cards in OOC? XD

I'm preparing for a local wild tournament that will be on 9/17! The tournament is following the same Shield Conquest format of Grandmasters. These are the 4 decks I am thinking of bringing. I want to get my lineup solidified to give me time to practice with all of the decks. Wondering if anyone has any thoughts on the decklists, or maybe have any suggestions on different decks that might be good for a tournament setting?

Deck #1

I spent last month ranking with mostly Even Shaman. I used both this deck, and my Toteven Shaman list: https://outof.cards/hearthstone/decks/6799-toteven-shaman I am torn on which one to bring. 

Deck #2

Burn Mage is the deck to beat in Wild atm, so I think it would be silly to not bring it. I would need to craft Aluneth which wouldn't be a problem because I have the dust and have been debating it. I just have been trying to avoid the dark side.

Deck #3 

Was leaning towards a Renolock to have a control deck option. Debating going with a Mecha'thun variant, but thinking this deck is probably the best option.

Deck #4 

I'm a little torn as to what to bring for the 4th deck. I'm thinking to either bring Odd Rogue, or to throw in a curve ball for fun and to throw opponents off with a Reno Dragon Hunter that I have a lot of fun with.

Title Card by Vilegloom

Introduction

There are artifacts in this world that hold great power. The power to bend the will of all who stand before its wielder. The power to harness the arcane energy that courses through the veins of this world. The power to turn its user into a beast that can cut down any foe. Should these weapons fall into the wrong hands, Azeroth would fall into chaos. The Earthen Ring has taken it upon themselves to protect the world from the most destructive weapons on Azeroth, storing them away in the deep recesses of Deepholm. But evildoers desire to take these weapons and use them for their own diabolical plans. Can you help this organization preserve the safety of this world?

Themes and Mechanics

The expansion's unique keyword is called Crystallize. When a character is Crystallized, it means it's encased in a Crystallize that protects it from everything, prevents it from being targeted, and takes away its ability to attack. When the controller's next turn ends, the character that has been Crystallized will be destroyed.

Deepholm is coursing at the seams with magical energies, which many seek to harness to strengthen themselves. Several cards this expansion benefit from Spell Damage in unorthodox ways!

The Crystalarium was made to hold dangerous and powerful artifacts, so that evil people can't use them to wreak havoc upon Azeroth. All these weapons must be attacked with in order to get their full power out.

F.A.Q. (Even tho no one actually asked)

Q: What year is this a part of?
A: It's part of the fictional Year of the Viper, which it shares with Azeroth's Most Wanted, the expansion that came before it. Just pretend that Year of the Viper happens alongside Year of the Dragon.

Q: What sets influence The Crystalarium's balance?
A: Currently, Azeroth's Most Wanted and all the cards that are currently in the standard cycle.

Q: What are the full plans for this set?
A: Voice acting for the cards, more lore, perhaps a logo for the expansion (and the previous one), stuff like that. If you wanna help, feel free to shoot me a DM if you wanna help!

(Viper Set 1) Azeroth's Most Wanted

Cards We're Nerfing Because We Hate Them

This card breaks our national treasure, Nexus-Prince Zakat from Azeroth's Most Wanted. That card replaced your Hero Power with one that worked similarly to the Coin. We love that card way more than we like Coldarra Drake, so we're taking our frustration out on Coldarra Drake. Especially since Coldarra Drake sucks and doesn't see any play, and thus basically only exists to ruin our cool ideas. So Coldarra Drake got nerfed.

Hi all.

Yesterday I played Brann Bronzebeard into a Wretched Reclaimer, in order to dump my hand a bit. I didn't expect to see, that the ethereal would summon two copies of the legendary thanks to the double battlecry:

I always thought, that Wretched Reclaimer offers a plain resummon effect, which an be good with deathrattles and reborn+deathrattles, but it appears that it has more synergies than someone would expect. Was this interaction obvious to you? I didn't find any discussion about it in our site, so I've decided to share this discovery with you.

Sorry for the Noob question but what is a highlander deck?

Is it something to do with the movie? Or is it just a random name?

I was thinking today about the thing i hate most in hearthstone right now, lackey shit in every single deck on ladder and in casual mode, and it really got my gnoggin gjoggin. Warlock would be in a better place if defile was still in standard. It feels really bad to have to hellfire a board of 1/1s that the opponent can easily reproduce next turn due do the cancerous nature of lackey shit generating more and more lackey shit, and screeching a board of it, while discarding a card, just for them to repopulate the next turn is probably even worse. Idk, what cards do you think they should consider adding to the classic set?

Hey, made these cards while working on my Burning Legion set. Decided they didn't fit there, but I like them on their own. Something for a special event? Part of a new Old God's set maybe? I started adding the other 4 classes, but the flavor felt off and there are only so many interesting spells to do this with.

When I want to see the last page of a thread, I can't easily navigate there (or I couldn't find the way yet). You should add the last page to the left of "right arrow" icon in page list. It is very hard to go to the last page of 80g quest thread.

Also, an option to sort comments in a thread from newest to latest would be nice.

https://outof.cards/hearthstone/decks/7301-rank-1-reno-meme-mage here is a link to it, I reached rank 1 with it this season but I'm not confident enough to pilot it to legend. All help and suggestions are greatly valued, but I wanna keep the meme aspect of it still there.

i am a new player (played for 4 days now) and i discovered this forum. A couple of hours ago i openend 8 packs and i received 2 legendaries.

the legendaries are ysera and brightwing.

My question is are these legendaries good or not?

I am currently at rank 47 

Thank you in advance

Hi all, I just wrote up my latest meme creation - "Anka'thun". This is a super cool OG C'Thun deck with exactly one C'Thun card.. C'Thun.

https://outof.cards/hearthstone/decks/7299

Any feedback would be great!

I own all the old gods right now (C'Thun, Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound Yogg-Saron, Hope's End, and N'Zoth, the Corruptor), occasionally I try and make decks that focus on the cards, and I was wondering what everyones favorite old gods are, and what decks you enjoy playing with them right now.

My favorite is either Yogg, because he is a blast, or N'zoth, because he is the most practical one.

Hey all,

I've been playing around with a handbuff Paladin deck in wild, using some of the token generators from the latest set to maximise value from the handbuff package previously available. So far I'm at rank 7, and climbing (if somewhat slowly) but most importantly, I'm having a ton of fun with it. From the pause of confusion when you play one of the many cards no other deck on the ladder plays, to the suprise of dropping a buffed Sergeant Sally after a Spiritsinger Umbra, this deck has produced fun gameplay, while not being completely awful.

I figured I'd post it here to get some feedback and opinions, as well as letting anyone interested try it out as well.

When the nerfs hit I was able to craft Dinotamer Brann and I built a highlander hunter. I homebrewed the following list:

Deck ID Not Found

I am still working on improving the list and I would appreciate your advice! 

thanks to everyone who gave me feedback! the deck is working out a lot better now than it was before. I appreciate it!

Hey Guys, i play Hearthstone since Beta and i wanted the opinion from the community on this topic since i cant remember a official statement from blizzard.

Does anybody else feel like if they are about to  jump from one rank to another ( rank 3 5 stars , so a win would lift you up a rank f.e.)

you automatically get matched against your worst matchup ? Horrible starthand , etc...

to sum it up - everything that can go wrong WILL go wrong ? including internet breakdown although you are connected to your wlan.

No salt over here just wondering if anybody else feels the same :)

All this goofeyness? 

Personally I would prefer another approach with stories closer to the warcraft franchise. 

One alliance vs. Horde expension is, what I'm waiting for since hs release. 

Too bad the queue time is hours long and by the time I can get in there, I would have used up all my time earmarked for gaming lol

What are you guys rolling? :)
