Hi all.

Now that the meta's starting to settle, and the first vs report and kripp's crafting guide are out, I'd be interested to know what you're planning to craft, or have recently crafted.

For me, I'm planning to craft zephrys, dinotamer brann, plus one of snake trap, rat trap and masked contender, which will give me a good highlander hunter deck. Will also craft 2 x psychopomp for a combo priest deck. Gonna hold off until I unpack 1 more legendary though, in case I get anything I need from packs first.

What about you?

Hi mods from Out of Cards, I'm a bit... dissapointed today. I have noticed almost every single comment I have made on this website has a lot of downvotes, even posts like this one (https://outof.cards/forums/hearthstone/hearthstone-general/1337-kripps-very-useful-guide-about-zephrys-the-great):

Seriously, guys??? And didn't sinti, whose comment has a total of 3 upvotes, notice anything strange??? WTF???

I perfectly know and understand why so many people out there are total assholes, and once a user becomes at least a bit popular in a forum, negative reactions are likely to increse, only because it's fun to hurt someone you don't like. But the negative votes are really not the problem here, what really pisses me off is that you, yes, the mods, aren't doing absolutely nothing about it. I know you know me very well, I have been a very active member of this community for more than four years, and yeah, I'm not Mother Teresa of Calcutta and my usual behaviour is probably not the ideal one, but why do I have to remember you to do your job??? It's super obvious you are totally aware of this thing, especially because many of my posts with stupid amounts of downvotes are in short threads where you participated!!!

Of course, you should ignore this thread: https://outof.cards/forums/off-topic/general-chat/1194-the-downvote-effect; obviously most people there downvoted me just for everyone's fun, including mine, hehe. :P :P :P

But yeah, I'm super pissed off because of this. I thought this forum was handled by serious, responsable, helpful and attentive people, but it seems that is not the case... Damn, what a shame... :( :( :(

Time to find another hobby, I guess... ;) ;) ;)

Im thinking of removing a card for a Dirty Rat ..  it'd really just be a tech against armor druid..

I have to share this video. I love NZ accent.

I've started building a Beast Zoolock deck around History Buff, Untamed Beastmaster and for the meme of it: Hir'eek, the Bat.

Faring well with it in Casual, but I'm looking for ideas to improve it in ladder matches (rank 5 and up).

EDIT: One of the main problems is Control Warrior, but frankly speaking there aren't many zoo options to improve that matchup, so I chose to ignore it.

If you want to save money when buying Hearthstone packs, you should check out Amazon Coins! It's an easy way to save up to 25% off Hearthstone packs so you can get into the new expansion without worrying about your wallet too much. We've got a detailed guide on how to Get Started with Amazon Coins, but if you've already dealt with them in the past, you can buy some more by clicking right here.

Both PC and Amazon (Android) versions just patched for me. But I can't find any patch notes or notice anything different.

Does anyone have information on what is updated or changed?

These three cards in particular enable some fun deathrattle abusing shenanigans.  Giving your cheap deathrattles like Dead Ringer reborn lets you complete the quest really easily and double up on the deathrattle effects without relying entirely on Twilight's Call!  Wretched Reclaimer is basically Terrorscale Stalker for priest, but even better since it puts more copies of the deathrattle minion in your rez pool for Twilight's Call and Psychopomp, you can use it on a Reborn deathrattle like Grandmummy to summon 2 copies of the minion (and you can even use it on the non-reborn half of Grandmummy to bring it back with Reborn again.) and you can use it on 1/1 copies from Mirage Caller and Twilight's Call!

I had quite a bit of laughs memeing around with a SMOrc Quest Priest yesterday that just kills the opponent by summoning obscene amounts of Leper Gnomes and Kobold Sandtroopers even if the deck auto-losses to any kind of healing or armor gain.

A midrange build with stuff like Nerubian Egg and Carnivorous Cube was doing much better for me with a similar level of fun too.

Even though Awaken the Makers normally promotes a control playstyle, it kinda works quite well for a midrange deck since you can complete the quest really fast and just use Amara, Warden of Hope as a 5 mana 8/8 Taunt for some big tempo and maybe cube it later.

I made a thread in the Custom Hearthstone forum and I was wondering if it was possible to change the name of the thread. I made a custom class and I wanted to change the thread name to show what set I'm currently at, but I'm not sure how to do that.

I feel personally attacked friend, considering you downvoted all of my decks. Even accused me before of falsely advertising my decks, when I didn't list any winrates or even say the deck was powerful. 

You know what other type of people were annoying on Hearthpwn? Hypocrites.

So THIS happened to me today... all in one turn so it couldn't be prevented.

Hey, as a shaman main I'd like to try his quest, so here's my take on it:

Deck ID Not Found

I included 22 battlecry minions, the very best, all of them but 2 ("draw card") work with quest reward, and 17 of them work well with Shudderwock (only "deal 3/4 damage" isn't guaranteed to work as intended); Hagatha and Lynchen are of especially high potential. No hero Hagatha as she will overwrite quest reward. Deck is completed by best removal + Mutate x2 since it's quite good for some understated battlecry minions.

How do you like it? any feedback much appreciated! :>

If i click on decks or cards, i am redirected to a weird page where the usual content is not there, but a listing that is apparently derived from a search function based on the namestring of the object i clicked.

It's something that shouldn't be older than a few hours.

I didn't have the chance to test on desktop.

I got 2 Desert Obelisk and 2 Shadow of Death yesterday from my packs, was a little bummed about that, not going to lie. But today, I thought, why not try Cave Johnson's advise.  Take those lemons and try to burn the house down with them.

So I made Obelisk Rogue. It is about as bad as you think, but I did get it to work a couple of times in the 6 games that I played. I mostly lost the games where I didn't draw Obelisk, either because the opponent was a fast zoolock or quest shaman, or because the Obelisks were in the bottom 3 cards of my deck. Both of them!

I'm sure this isn't going to work once people know what they're doing, but until then it's fun to sometimes eke out a win with this 1 star card.

The Witcher trailer was released some weeks ago and I'm super excited. I really can't wait to watch this new series on Netflix!!! Of course, I want desperately to fill the big empty hole GoT left into my heart... At least a bit. ;)

So, what about you, people??? What do you think about this new series???

Note: This is the Off-Topic section of the forum and stuff like this belongs here. ;)

I've got an offer for £5 off a google play store purchase that runs out sunday and was wondering if I should save it for that or just buy some packs

As far as I know there is no sufficient data for the golden legendary pity timer (PT).

I actually got to 39x packs last expansion in between golden legendaries, so the much cited '400 packs PT' seems to hold, but I'm now (unwillingly) on my quest to test the PT:

349 Uldum packs opened, no golden legendary (got all commons and rares, most epics and would be missing like 5-6 legs hadn't I crafted 3)

IF I DO HIT like 380, I'll post again, but until then: What was the longest opening streak without a golden leg for you?

Title says it all. I build a deck, yet I feel constrained that I have to choose one that's not befitting. I want to add more.

I will explain with an example: The deck I made consists of both Yogg Mage and Reno Mage archetypes. Is it possible to add two sub-archetype slots before saving a deck? That will help finding or expressing a deck better.

Just curious if there are any decks in SoU that you thought were going to be good (or maybe just playable?) before launch that you've experimented with and they were just trash?

I got High Priest Amet so figured i'd give a Boar OTK deck a whirl since it seemed reasonable as a win condition in any otherwise decent Control Priest capacity. Ladies and Gentleman, it is NOT. 2-8 record, and the two wins didn't come from the OTK but just general win against other Control decks. I only got close to the OTK once, but they had two taunts up and I only had oneSilence so no go.

At least I learned my lesson after RR where I crafted a LOT to try and make Dragon Warrior work to no avail so I didn't craft anything on this but still...I get that a 7-card combo isn't the easiest to pull off but dang I didn't think the deck would be THAT bad. 

Hi there guys. So, the meta is slowly forming and I want to gather your guys opinion on the highlander Mage deck (especially appreciate if you played it).

The question I want to know:

• Is it viable in ladder?
• Is it fun to play?
• Is it worth crafting?

Specifically this one, because the highlander mage is butt ton of dust and feels risky. Right now Mage archetypes is third winrate Mage(53.71), after Control mage(55.25) and Big spell(54.69), so my question is mainly about Reno the Relicologist and Zephrys the Great.

Do you feel this cards could carry the archetype? Do they bring unique fun experience? Maybe you got some other opinions? Would really appreciate your opinions =3

I just got a golden High Inquisitor Whitemane from this week's tavern brawl. I had completely forgotten that this was added to Classic.

Does anyone know how it interacts with reborn minions? I wonder if this new mechanic would make Whitemane more playable.

I guess everyone here is familiar with the concept of power creep, that is when some new cards are strictly better than some old cards. I won't give any examples because this expansion has plenty and it's easy to find some.

What is less talked about is rarity creep. That is, when card effects previously printed as epic or legendary are now printed on cards with lower rarities.

Here's what I mean:

I feel like this is a problem. Since the transition from 1 to 2 legendaries per class per expansion in 2017, legendaries (both class and neutral) have become more specialized and specific (Zilliax and SN1P-SN4P are recent exceptions), while in the past legendaries were more versatile and those that were good were auto-includes (think OG Dr. Boom). Nowadays however legendaries are often the foundation for an archetype, and most decks need to contain specific legendaries to be viable on ladder, which means that new/f2p players need to focus on legendaries for a specific archetype that often won't be used elsewere. So they're stuck with basically one deck.

What do you think? Is it a problem for you?

this is hard..
the new quests are crazy

I got an email from Blizzard trying to entice me to dust off my classic character in WoW by instantly leveling it up to 100. Which, may work for most, but for me not so much.  I'd rather live in the nostalgia of when I was in my 20's drinking beer, raiding like BWL/AQ crazy. Then I got another email about the classic only server getting ready to open up. I almost took the hook, but then I realized I am married with 4 kids, and I couldn't delicate the endless grinding hours for it. haha

Those email did bring me to a crossroads in my brain. I was stuck thinking about the endless hours of vanilla, and my 7 - 10 minute Hearthstone matches I try to squeeze in when I can.

I started to wonder what good expansions they could bring to Hearthstone from the vanilla days.

Here are my top 3:

First one that came to me was Dire Maul for some reason. An Orge Expansion would be fun, could also tie in to the ruined night elf city.

Second  was Darkmoon Faire. I'm kind of surprised this hasn't been done yet. That place was always fascinating to me. Travelling band of gypsies peddling their wares.

Third would be an Alterac Valley type of deal. That place was a crazy pvp. Totally fluid, and a pvp holyland. I remember epic battles outside of Tarren Mill which isn't to far from the zone for pvp queue as well.
