I had watched some games from Swimstrim, you can also watch on youtube right now, I didn't see any other impactful changes tbh. They might still change before game starts tho. Nothing guaranteed.
leveled-up Tryndamere - It doesn't have Tough anymore.
PS: They are leaked from videos of some of content creators that has access after open beta announcement. They are %90 correct but there are still chances that Riot may change them again. So wait January 22nd for Patch notes for confirmed versions.
Additionally, They said They will try to release full game at first half of the year with mobile version so Everyone thinks that it will be there before June.
I won't stop waiting. I don't also stop looking for other stuff that I know that they never happens. One should not stop dreaming and wishing.
They asked my wish and I said that. You didn't need to response tbh.
Someone might say that "I am looking for a new naxxramas expansion" That also seems like they won't do but One can request.
There is nothing wrong with requesting I guess ?
I already stop supporting Blizzard and doing only dailies in HS. I just said that if that mode happens, I could change my mind and restart to support them again.
Best moment for me in 2019 is getting Dragonqueen Alexstrazsa and Kronx Dragonhoof from single pack.
What I am looking for about Hearthstone in 2020 is a game-mode which is the real casual mode that players can enjoy without 100g grinders and netdecks.
I have opened a post in reddit but I wanted to open here too for people who doesn't follow reddit.
Pretty much on the tittle guys.
Don't forget to pre-register before 19th January 11:59 PM PT on https://playruneterra.com/en-us/ via PC in order to start playing on January 23rd 11 AM PST.
If you don't pre-register, You won't be able to play on 23rd and will need to wait for one more day.
At 11 AM PT on January 23, LoR service will be back online. Anyone who played during the preview patches OR has pre-registered on PC by 11:59 PM PT on January 19 will gain access on 1/23. Pre-registered folks who did not play in the preview patches should look for an invite email—some of these may take a few hours to roll out, so don’t stress if you don’t have access right at 11 AM.
Thanks for the tips. Purrsuit of Perfection caught my interest, I love the idea and highlander like decks, I'll prolly try it when enough expansion hit and that an highlander deck has a least a bit of consistency.
Actually my first read from that card was not highlander, but card generation (karma mostly)
Same and with Heimerdinger. I've used this deck in previews, it was so fun to play.
Also [Hearthstone Card (Ashe) Not Found]/Karma decks are quite good because most of Frostbite cards have additional effects if the target is already frostbitten. That deck is quite well like how Freeze Mage is. Simply tries your opponent wait until you wind your win condition.
Jinx is also quite well with Draven for the deck that has high pressure. There are cards that does something when you discard like give all minions +1 attack or summon a 1/1 or a minion that is summoned when discarded. So if you like aggro decks, you can give it a try. I also tried my Draven/Jinx deck in previews. It has good win rates too. It has also some advantages against aggro decks. My list is here; https://outof.cards/legends-of-runeterra/decks/62-super-mega-death-dravenjinx-discardaggro-deck
You can expect to build bunch of full decks with lesser playtime it seems because of Regional system. That gives the player to great opportunity to focus on the regions you want to play and I've almost done 1 region in 10 days in previews. Keep that in mind I played with 2 accounts and I would probably complete one of the regions' reward tree if i completely continue on one account.
Also you can build completely different decks with only two regions. Allegiance keyword gives some opportunities to go for a mono deck aswell and Champions have different themes mostly so that makes some diversity for even double region decks. For example; while Ashe(Freljord)/Karma(Ionia) deck is like a Freeze Mage without ramp, Anivia(Freljord)/Tryndamere(Freljord)/Karma(Ionia) deck have completely different aspects of archetypes. It is more like a ramp/combo deck.
Well, my main concern is enjoyment. I claimed that you missed my point because of that you suggested me to play meta-breaker decks if i can't control others preferance but unfortunately that doesn't fix my problem that I face 4 same decks 4 games in a row.
Only one thing could fix my problem and that should be done by Blizzard unfortunately. There is not a safezone to be far from this netdecks. Even build-a-deck brawls are full with netdecks after first hour of the brawl. Casual is full of netdeck-practicers and hyper aggro 100g grinders. Ladder is (normally) full with netdecks. There are some fun cards that it is obvious they won't see any ladder play but so fun to play with. Where can we play those cards ? There are no place unless Blizzard decides to give us a mode where we can ban cards, decks or even classes.
All I want from game is that and there is not a mode that we can do it for 6 years. What we are getting instead of this ? A shitty auto-chess mode.
I don't want to be like "I paid money, You have to do what I want" type of guy but I just want to say that These (and some other) decisions of Blizzard makes me leave paying to them and probably make me stop playing the game. They might just losing a customer and single customer might not important for them but I really don't care.
I will probably make Hearthstone my casual game when LoR comes at 24th and will just do dailies in order to collect some cards but won't care about my collection anymore. I already got a decent wild collection.I decided to do that because of netdecking hell of hearthstone. If i miss to play, i can play some wild games without knowing the netdecks of the game because I won't follow related news anymore probably. That might make my games more enjoyable and might make me less salty about the game. The Most healthy way for me and my forumming is this probably.
Sorry if I've offended anyone in this quoting chains btw. but This netdecking hell was one of my vital points about Hearthstone and you know, People might be wild and go mad while they are giving up on something and Warcraft Universe and dream of the card game of it was one of my most loved hobby once. Sorry again.
Well, I can confidently say that I will make Hearthstone my casual area and play 3 games in a day most of the times (due to daily quests) and make my main focus on Runeterra since I am playing Hearthstone in meme-y way.
not having safezones for casual decks in hearthstone makes me mad at game even if love to play the game. So, I will try my chance with LoR.
And I will be in Runeterra in next week instead of Hearthstone. I might do quests for adventures and buy them with gold in time but really won't care about my Hearthstone collection anymore. I already got so wide Wild Hearthstone collection and it will help me enjoy playing hearthstone enough times in casual, i hope.
Tbh, I will make my main game LoR and stick with Hearthstone casually. 3 games for a day probably but I'm sure of that LoR will be netdecking bullshit in time too. But casual of that game might be promising I hope and some quests are detailed enough to see some diversity of decks like "play Ragnaros the Firelord 3 times." or "win with a deck with Millhouse Manastorm in it.3 times."
Hearthstone is so fun to play, I can't deny that and I really love Warcraft Universe since its beginning. but people and netdecks make me mad so much. Also it is not just community, After those years we still don't have a game mode which we just play our meme decks. Netdecks even hits brawls. Same deck over and over again even in brawls. I don't mention casual again, Hyper aggro bullshit for 100g grind.
They all are blizzard's fault that they still don't give us a safezone and people exploit from that. How can really people enjoy the game as playing like this i really can't imagine and understand. It is a miserable way to grind hyper aggro in casual all day then go ladder with same deck for a month, if a brawl hits, netdeck the best deck possible and try to win. Do the same for another month. That's so ridiculous.
he just meant "mobile is about to come soon/sooner" by saying "right out the gate".:)
Because all was expecting them to release it for mobile later 2020 and now they said we try to complete it in first half of 2020 with full release. That's a big announcement tbh. Normally, game companies delays relaeses and Riot seems they are pulling all the times sooner.
It seems they were so happy with their game's stability on preview times. I can't deny it, it was so smooth without bugs and glitches/server issues for an alpha.
Board seems great with musics etc but I am still waiting to see some card related cosmetics.
I mean, they won't be only shiny and animated cards probably if they still didn't show any. Something big they are planning for card cosmetics I would say.
And no card backs either. These are core cosmetics for a card game and they didn't show any.
That means we will start to progress sooner and there will be more players in the game now.
I can't be happy more than this. :)
Edit: Oh Wow, There will be only 3 Servers to play like Hearthstone; Americas, Asia and Europe. That's really nice, I didn't expect this. I always think that there will be same server system with LoL. Please @neonangel, Add this to the article, That's really important for some people.
The rewards even will be more generous with open beta release patch.

Btw, Anivia is 2/5 if i remember correct.
It was like that in one of swim's video so I remember from there.

Open Beta FAQ
Same and with Heimerdinger. I've used this deck in previews, it was so fun to play.
https://lor.mobalytics.gg/decks/bmm3fjn16h1itkk72mdg
2 copies were enough to summon Cataclysm with random spells from Karma and turrets from Heimerdinger. Btw someimes, you just win without Cataclysm thanks to Heimerdinger and Ezreal shenanigans.
Flux, You should add Allegiance as a keyword here i guess;
Also if the leaks are true (probably true because one of the guy from riot responded it) Ready your attack will be "Rally" as a keyword. :)
Karma is good in some type of decks.
In ramp/combo decks for example exactly with Dawn and Dusk. Doubling spells at 10 mana is such a huge combo potential.
Her random spell generating has some potential with Heimerdinger and Purrsuit of Perfection. I can't be so sure because we don't know what top tier decks will be but Heimerdinger/Karma/Ezreal with Purrsuit of Perfection (Cataclysm) will be my first target in open beta. I have tried it in previews and had quite well winrates.
Also [Hearthstone Card (Ashe) Not Found]/Karma decks are quite good because most of Frostbite cards have additional effects if the target is already frostbitten. That deck is quite well like how Freeze Mage is. Simply tries your opponent wait until you wind your win condition.

OCTRAIN I would say.
That's really great actually;
That means we will start to progress sooner and there will be more players in the game now.
I can't be happy more than this. :)

Well, it ended up it will be released on 24th Jan according to LoR's official BR and TR Youtube channels.
