    Man, Plague Lord are such bs: I'm glad I decided to invest my gold in packs after the first run.

    I just managed to fatigue one, keeping his board clear and my health total safe at the same time. Well, fuck you: new broken hero power and another 30 cards in the deck because why not, fatigue is a thing just for you.

    I got so tilted after I saw his deck being replenished, like: why? Seriously why? I doesn't make the slightest sense.

    I mean, they'll release another patch in like two weeks, right? Right? Please tell me I'm not wrong.

    I actually got legend for the first time this month, but man playing is so unrewarding now

    Hey everyone! Like a lot of you I switched to this site when I first heard about the split.

    On occasion I would still check out hearth pwn to see how it was doing. After awhile, when I would go there on mobile, I would almost always get redirected by some spam pop-up thing where I would be on a new page saying ive won something. I cant even click back to return to where I was. This happens almost everytime I go there and eventually I just stopped trying. Never had a problem like that on this site!

    This happen to anyone else? 

    I actually find this to happen to a lot of sites recently. I guess there is a new type of ad around and sites aren't aware of it yet.

    here's my take:

    if you buy the game you're supporting laziness on the developer's side and basically signalling them that they can get away with it, which ultimately makes you part of the problem

    Therefore and thusly I conclude: anyone who buys this 

     I agree with you til this point: after it you're just taking it as an excuse to insult peopl

    and watch people completely disregard the point because they can't handle being insulted on the internet

    Yeah but one thing is criticism (which is fair and I totally support it), another is insulting.

    If people cry about a product they nonetheless buy, then it's their fault too and you're right to address it, but you shouldn't provoke like that.

    It's not that people can't handle being insulted on the internet: people can't handle being insulted on the internet without any good reason.

    "Hey you? Why do you play HS if that makes you salty? You mindless slave, sad fuck trying to find a goal in your pathetic life". See?

    So what? nothing you said is wrong. Sorry that I don't want to pretened to be civilized on the fucking internet. I'm not claiming to be the paragon of virtue, I'm just making a point and I'm gonna use whatever language I feel like. If that makes you uncomfortable then it's not my problem.

    Civility doesn't matter because people are too retarded to get the point anyways, so I might as well insult them so at least I get something out of the whole thing.

    Yeah, my exact thought: as things are right now, I don't know how much Rogue can afford to spend time waiting for value. I really (really) hope to be wrong though

    I wonder how this card works.

    Does it copy just the minion or the stats too? For example: Anka, the Buried into Mechanical Whelp into Shadow of Death on the latter.

    Does it summon a 1/1 or a 2/2?

    Why do you feel the need to capitalize the mon in pokemon? that's weird..

    I guess it's just how I'm used to seeing it asa kid. The logo looks capitalized and it stands for Pocket Monsters, so it's just how I've always written it  ¯\_()_/¯

    Totally agree with OP. The M looks capitalized in the logo. Not so weird.

    Nerd time!

    Technically, writing the M in capital isn't wrong at all: in fact, Pokemon stands for "Pocket Monsters".

    However, with time writing the name normally (just the first letter in capital) was much quicker, so...

    I'll be honest: I don't really like this "drops" thing without any certain reward like it was 4, or even 1, months ago (you get 1 pack for 3 hours and another for 6).

    This way, there's a really high chance people will get nothing after watching (and by watching I really mean it, not just opening a window and doing other stuff in the meanwhile) the Tournament for several hours.

    It may be my guts to be speaking, but since they disabled the guaranteed drops I've been totally avoiding the tournament scene, while before I used to watch some of the games. It kinda feels like a joke to hope for one of 1500 packs when there are other 26k guys doing the same.

    Maaan, if you want that bad to buy views, do it the proper way.

    No hard feelings, just wanted to write how I felt for this.

    Yeah, if we consider Rastakhan's Midrange Hunter, the only epics and legendaries are 2 Master's Call and Deathstalker Rexxar: I mean ok, they're pretty dang good cards, but I'm sure there are 3 more aggro-oriented commons/rares in Wild that can easily fill up the hole (maybe Leeroy Jenkins + double Quick Shot?)

    Not totally wrong, but not even totally right.

    It's true, Finley is the explorer that has the least impact the turns he's played: Reno removes 10 health worth of enemies, Brann summons Big Daddy Krush and Elise gives you insane value/enable OTK.

    On the other hand, Finley gives you remarkable value on the distance. Take this deck for example: if you play it on curve or even in the first 5 turns, it will be game winning 70% of the time. We just have to wait for more support (being it either Midrange or Control)

    I read the guide you wrote under the decklist, but if you don't mind I have other questions, especially regarding the mulligan:

    • History Buff and Magic Carpet: both of them are pretty important in the deck (the second one justifies the high number of 1-drops, played and generated). Although Zephrys the Great and Sir Finley of the Sands are more important, do I keep  (foe example) Carpet or do I throw it away?
    • Same question for Crystology: do I give priority to Zeph and Finley or do I keep it?
    • One thing I changed in my personal list was Hungry Crab for Crystallizer: since Murlocs are meta (and you run two of them), most of the times you find yourself with a 3/4 that removes an enemy minion or, let's say, a 2/1 Finley. Moreover, it has synergy with Magic Carpet. Any thoughts?

    Already watched it, but I don't know: it feels awkward to have all these 1 health minions (if you don't hit . Unless I have a god like curve, I really struggle to understand how I should behave.
