I've been watching this free to play series on youtube:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jxht-L8vCng&list=PL6pNhtiaol0n9CUcpKkMKUtJ16cm-sV0e

Just wanted to share it because it has been interesting to watch complete n00bs at this game try to advance on the ladder, and i have been crazy annoyed by their misplays and bad deck building.  At the same time it's really cool to see them grow as players and in skill level, they are still not great and haven't gotten too high on the ladder yet... but its a really fun thing to watch.  It could be worthwhile for any new players or anyone who wants to remember the old days when you knew nothing about the game.

mindblast and vanish just got sent to the hall of fame. and they were made into commons. which means that you can DE your golden copies for 200 dust, or if you want to keep your golden copies you can scrap the regular ones for 20. just thought I would let everyone know. 

Hi there,

Silence Priest was in the Meta some time ago and as of right now im pretty sure it is back :) - So far im having fun with this list and a decent Winrate.

Here's the list and i also tried to write a little Guide (just click on the Deck-Name)  :)

Let me know what you think!

Recently I crafted a golden Sonya for my Spectral Pillager Rogue (in the sig) because it has long been my favorite deck. I may also craft a golden Valeera down the road too at some point. Sure, crafting cards in golden is certainly not everyone's cup of tea, but once in a long while I like to do a little extra for a deck I really like. Baited for those shinies.

Have you ever crafted a golden legendary for a deck or specific card you really enjoyed?

After seeing the outstanding cinematic trailer I thought explorer's classes were pretty clear:

Elise has a magic book-> she is a mage,
Brann rides a dinosaur-> he is an hunter,
Finley seem to have something to do with animals and nature-> he is a druid,
Reno has a cannon with crystals that generate light-> he is a pally.

But seeing the whole announcement trailer I noticed the druid quest has Elise in its art, so I relized she had to be a druid, but this created a lot of other problems, since no one else seems to be a mage; Reading the comments under the videos and here on out of cards it seems there is a consensus on the classes (elise as druid, finley as pally for the golden fish, reno as mage, since he has those magic crystals and brann as hunter); but even this scheme does not make that much sense to me, because druids don't use magic books(I might be mistaken since I'm not a wow player, but I don't remember a single druid with a book in hs), pallies don't have animals and crystals that generate light have nothing to do with mages, so I had an idea: "What if Explorers were bi-class?" and after seeing the trailer dozens of time I noticed something else: the weapons have characteristics from various classes:

Finley's golden fish sword is an animal, but is golden and seems to be enchanted with light(druid-pally)
Elise's magic book seems to have both etheral powers and nature-related ones(mage-druid, plus she also rides an horse)
Reno's gun has crystals and generates light, but it's also an hunter weapon (pally-hunter, and he also fights with animals in the part where he is alone)
Brann is the problematic one, since he has less screentime than the others (he just appears with other explorers while finley, elise and reno have a solo part during the trailer) and he has not a consistent weapon (at the start he has a whip and at the end a shotgun) and even if I guess its main "weapon" is the dinosaur (which has nothing to do with mages, unless it's not something like a magical dinosaur, but it does not look like that, and it's fully grown up at the start and just an egg at the end), Brann's class choice might have a deeper meaning.

Except for Brann, who's not highlighted as the others, I can't unsee the double nature of the explorers' weapons anymore.
What do you think?

One way they could separate the use of them from ungoro is by possibly making it so that both players and their actions count towards the quest. Possibly giving it a chance to add new strategy to the game. Do you think this would be a good idea?

Your booty will be missed..

Hi dear hs players,

I want to craft a deck or two in wild and I need your ideas to help me choose :)

I took a break after gvg adventure and came back after witchwood so I feel like I missed many good content in between, now I want to play some wild to see those cool cards. And as you guess my wild collection is not so wild, it's made of only KoFT year. So I probably can't play 200k dust decks.

My favorite class is Rogue but the rogue decks I checked already seem familiar so I want to try something different. I also enjoy playing warlock, mage and shaman. It doesn't have to be tier 1, I will play it in the rank 10-20 territory. I'd prefer control/combo over aggro. 

So what do you guys enjoy playing in wild? What would be the single most enjoyable deck to play in wild occasionally? I'm looking forward to hearing any ideas!

Is this my phone, or does anyone else experience this? 

Every time I want to type a punctuation mark in this text editor, the prompt would just skip one space, like pressing space. 

Hey.

What's the go with people spamming the WOW button, or the Well Played button after every single card I play?

They are also the ones that usually end up losing the match 99% of the time.

Are they former COD players and this is their version of smack talk?

It seems so odd to me.

Golden card test in 3,2,1 Malygos

Well, Tıtle says everything. I couldn't see a topic about it and didn't see any comments in the site.

So wanted to point it out.

Pilfer now adds a random class card to your hand instead of giving a random card from your opponent's class.

Old text: Add a random card to your hand (from your opponent's class).

New Text: Add a random card from another class to your hand.

Hi, hello!

Just a quick question (since I couldn't find the answer on the forum)...

The "Your cost" field in the deck view – what are the plans? When will we see the function, how will it work?

This is, in my opinion, the most important feature on a hearthstone deck site. It is the biggest reason why I use hearthpwn and if outof.cards gets a similar function I'll definitely use the site more.

Has there been any news, or indication that we're getting a third annual Fire Festival?!  It'd be really REALLY nice of Blizzard to do right about now...  Please, Ragnaros!  Be the Savior of our Wallets by helping us increase our gold coffers before Saviors of Uldum!!!

I am quite puzzled. Before HoF rotations, if you kept rotating cards, only max crafting value of them would be refunded. Say, if you kept 2 golden Black Cat and 2 normal Black Cat, you would get 800 dust. With recent patch, however, I didn't earn 1600 dust since I had golden copies of Mind Blast and Vanish. I know patch notes regarding HoF cards btw:

• If you have Wild unlocked, you’ll keep Vanish and Mind Blast as Hall of Fame Commons. If not, you’ll receive an equivalent amount of dust.

So, I will ask to all of you: People who didn't have these cards will receive dust whereas people who had these cards didn't earn dust. Is that fair or am I missing the picture here? Also, what is the "equivalent amount of dust"? How is it calculated? Like, crafting value (HoF standards) or disenchanting values? Based on only golden cards or only normal cards or both?

Hi.

I tried to register my username wendeee, but OOC told me that the user exists. It must have existed since hearthstation i believe. However, i am getting this when i try to login:

Server Error (500)

I tried to reset password, but that did not help.

So i was thinking that maybe there is something wrong with the account, so i registered a new username Wende (i used the same email address as for the first one, which might be an issue). I got inside this afternoon, but this evening it is dead as the first one for me.

So i created this one (with another email address, just to be sure) in order to post about it here, it might be bug.

What i find curious is that i see both my accounts on the member page on top: http://imgbox.com/AuIUiHj9 and when you click on them, you get the 500 error again. It happens to me also for another members (JoKeR, Wei).

Thanks for looking into this.

First Jaina now.. some cards. (well they are not that hidden but they weren't announced before)

RIP [Hearthstone Card (succubus) Not Found], Secretkeeper, Windfury Harpy and [Hearthstone Card (mistress of pain) Not Found], also RIP card arts with blood... I can understand why blizzard would do it, but it's still a nerf of sort for people who prefer their game to be more mature.

I like the new art (windfury harpy was ugly anyway) but the decision behind the changes MEH.. who is afraid of some blood and it's not like 10 years old didn't see boobs in the internet yet...

on the other hand it's just cards it's not like you really need them to be violent or sexual.. just be cool right?

What do you think of the new art/names? you like it? want [Hearthstone Card (succubus) Not Found] back?

As the title suggests, I get a server error (500) wheb trying to view the front page. 😪

Edit: Weird, right after posting this it was working again..

So today will Blizzard probably announce the new expansion (see more here: https://outof.cards/hearthstone/150-are-the-league-of-explorers-taking-on-the-league-of-evil-expansion-teaser)

Also, it will be probably League of Explorers themed (more here: https://outof.cards/hearthstone/151-expansion-speculation-where-are-we-heading-to)

I'm excited.

How many gold you saved yet for the next expansion (me - from daily quests like 4850 gold)

I believe we will get an update with the new cards for classic/basic sets together with the preorder for new expansion.

And what do you expect from the preorder? Will you preorder?

First of all, just to get some good boy points, i just recently turned to this site as my main hearthstone website. Well done with the news coverage, you won me over pretty quickly. Since i moved here i thought i'd take the occasion to add some content myself, even tho i never really did long posts on hearthpwn maybe i can do one here just because.

SO, at the start of the expansion, when dks rotated out, i thought the game would move from the old "infinite value" model to a more oldschool kind of hs where you had to manage your resources more carefully. But it really didnt, actually it got worse, because dks just slooowly gave you value with their hero powers, and everyone had them, now value generation is all over the place.

Following here the things i dont like-->

I don't like conjurer's calling. The card is pretty cool on paper, it's supposed to balance the value it can create with the randomness of the effect, except you can use it pretty consistently cheap mountain giants, with the only results being either 2 mountain giants or 2 grave shamblers, which are basically mountain giants with taunt. I don't have a problem with mountain giant per se, the card is a pretty cool way hand focused control decks can contest the board, but at the moment we don't have bgh anymore as a valuable option to remove it, and if it sticks and a conjurer calling lands, it's pretty much game over (with conjurer calling being twinspell). I really don't like this kind of value because it comes too early in the game and is way too consistent for the value it gives.

I don't like that they put another strong mech removal on warrior. I would have been fine with a generic removal, but with dr boom warrior has too much removal. I don't have a problem with dr boom per se, but the card suffers from deathstalker rexxar syndrome, where he was a perfectly fine card on release, and got completely out of control with the introduction of the new cards. Omega assembly also worsens the problem, as it has the same problem with the cards it generates being too consistently good, which in turn makes the interaction with the dr boom aura stronger. 

I don't like bomb hunter, not the concept per se, but i really dont like how the deck interacts with magnetic. When i saw magnetic, and i think a lot of people thought the same, i went "well this mechanic is either gonna be completely useless, or it's gonna be completely overpowered". Matter of fact, magnetic is completely useless in the decks that can't abuse it, and completely broken in the decks that do abuse it. If you manage to make minions stick, it's virtually charge, except the minions that have it don't have bad stats to compensate. "but you can't silence charge" duh, but you can't really silence magnetic either, when every card has magnetic you are not gonna silence every one of them, and even if you do the card most likely already used its value and it's still gona leave behind a body that you can magnetize on.

I don't really like arch thief rafaam either. The effect is very cool, but it was cool as a late game option on elise decks, because you had to decide which removal tools you wanted to use and which you were gonna turn into legendaries. Made for some very cool value battles (incidentally one of my favourite decks was grinder priest with elise and justicar, where the game felt as you were ramping up in power and pretty often games were really close (also a callout to elise ctrl warrior)). Like it is now, it's just another rexxar where you are gonna build the aggroest deck you can make and just drop rafaam to turn into a late game deck if the aggro plan fails. Meh.

SO yeah, i don't like anything sorry, i thought i was going somewhere with this but whatever xD. I just wanted to say what i didn't like and see if anyone else has concerns over this.

Also i didn't give solutions to the stuff, im not some kind of wanna be game designer that is gonna say yeah blizzard is so stupid lmao if i made the cards it would be 10 times better lul. I think if you just write some solutions in a post like this you are gonna get attacked over them. Im just raising the issue, if you guys can think of a "solution" you can share it but i mean, whatever bro do what you want. Some of the stuff they put in the game is flawed at a basic level, i can't just say "remove it from the game" or " yeah let's just make conjurer's calling 10 mana" because the problems are more in the way cards interact with each other than the cards themselves. Hopefully next expansion waters this stuff down enough that it's not as impactful as it is now, blizz pls don't fuck up reno. 

--- edit

-- Since i'm getting a lot of replies about rafaam not being that strong, im gonna clarify. When i said that i didn't like rafaam and compared it to rexxar, what i meant was that the cards share a similiar theme where you get to turn an aggro plan into a slower but inconsistent value game. The fact that rexxar got blown completely into overpowerdness by the ww beast package full of rush beasts, lifesteal and poisonus is another discussion. I specifically said that the effect, is actually a pretty fun one to toy with in control decks, citing old elise-the golden monkey decks as an example, but is not the kind of effect in my opinion that should be so easily available as to just put in a single card in your deck for more aggressive strategies. --

<-- Best card ever

Ok. So you start your game of HS. Both are at 1 mana, nothing too crazy can happen. Then, all of a sudden, a couple of turns later, some really crazy stuff happens and you (or your opponent :)) is dead or completely done for on board. 

So I think we all agree this should not be possible at turn 1 (no fun there). But what would the minimal turn be to have a crazy comeback/miracle/combo/insane-rng turn?

Turn 2? Turn 3? 4? 5?

I am not talking about aggro decks who try to kill you by turn 5 if you do not react by using cheap resources.

But we have some typical examples, like Khadgar's mountain giant army on turn 5 or a very big van Cleef very early, or a board full of pimped murlocs with bloodlust. Stuff like that.

Really I think Control Warlock is just a couple cards away from being playable, but without those cards its just awful. I miss Defile so much.
