I think you overestimate how many people would care for mirror mode. The majority of the playerbase plays ranked because it is competitive and then you have BG. Classic, normal, duels, brawls and arena is played less because they are either niche or non-competitive.
Then you have to factor in that the majority of the player base netdecks, plays from their phone and plays while doing other things. Mirror mode would be a niche mode for deck builders but it doesn't do anything for deck builders that want to play competively.
I cannot see how it would relevant for HS. Besides you could just play with friends that likes to play meme decks and enjoy your collection that way.
I have noticed too. I suits me fine as I only use Lab of Legends to gain an extra 400 and 200 XP "PvP" win. However, it takes away the challenge and it wasn't even that hard to begin with.
Yes if you don't run countermechanics this deck is very hard to beat
but NO, this archetype is not op,
it is very vulnerable to non-combat removal that you find primarily in noxus, freljord and PNZ and shadowisles. None of these regions are really that popular right now which could be the actual problem but this archetype is not a problem yet and once people tech against it it will even less a problem
Pretty much this. The game has plenty mechanics to counter the high attack and low health minions. I am also pretty sure they hate facing slow and grindy SI/Freljord decks due to the amount of removal, freezes, chump blockers and what not.
It's kind of sad that Ascended's call is at the buttom. It kind of makes it a dead card unless you draw it with the attack token Read cards before evaluating them. And... hope you don't play against a nab player :D
That sounds like a pretty common story actually. Long-time Hearthstone player comes and tries out Legends of Runeterra and they never go back to Hearthstone again
Funny, because I hear mostly the opposite of that where people are playing LoR for like a month, and then go back to HS because they find it more fun. I guess it depends on where you hear those opinions.
Maybe you should try LoR yourself before you decide which is more likely
Some just find LoR's complexity to be maybe a little too much despite how f2p friendly the game is.
This! HS is way more casual. Each player does their thing during their turn. In LoR there is much more interaction and you can't just sit calmy during your opponent's turn. And then there is spell interactions, combat interactions, different spell speeds, spell mana etc.
I like it but I get why some people don't. And to be fair HS is better if you are playing while taking a shit.
If you are short on resources to craft cards I'd hold off for the first week or so. People are playing a lot of things that might end up being bad once the meta settles.
I don't think Shurima is overtuned, and it is way too early to make such statements. Bad things tend to be good early after a new expansion because other lists hasn't been refined yet.
I just looked at the master ladder, for my region, and I can see that none of them plays with Shurima. 2x TF/Fizz, 1x Lucian/MF and 1x Freljord Fiora. Another guy posted a similar thing on Reddit where the master ladder, for his region, was 3x TF/Fizz and 1x Fiora/Shen. I am also pretty sure a lot of the Shurima lists struggle against burn decks due to the lack of healing.
If their is one thing I have learned from playing CCGs for a long time: I don't care about card arts, card aesthetics, boards, cards backs and what not. I kind of want to but I don't.
So I really don't care about region icon placement and frames.
Victor is awesome and his design is really well done, so it was a welcome buff. He is prone to getting bad keywords early which hurts his viability but I will try a Victor/Apehelios deck for sure.
Tips like these are great and eventually you get to a point where you just have abundant ressources.
I have all cards except 48 rares, and I have: 87531 shards, 18 champion, 15 epic, 43 rare and 78 common wild cards. And lastly I have 28 expedition tokens and I have played quite a lot expedition since they released prismatic cards. And this is the collection of a casual player; I can only imagine people who grind this game has way more than me.
I started playing a week before Rising Tides was released and back then I bought some cards to get started with the game. Since then I have been able to craft whatever I wanted, and I can probably craft the entire upcoming expansion.
Thrashing snapper is also a cheap Reputition trigger.
I am not convinced either of the archtype either but the card certainly helps.
Probably a good idea. Hearthstone crushed it when the game launched and any game that couldn't compete with that would end up like Artifact.
It's a forum and OldManSanns wanted to post it. What's the problem?

Afaik it's a visual bug. Several people reported the same thing on reddit but could see it was added to their collection.

Oh shit. I completely missed that.

Day 1 decks are usually very unrefined.

I just love seeing Nightfall Aggro on that list. It's such an awesome deck that people keep underestimating.
That is actually quite interesting.
T4: block and survive
T5. challenge, reset health, gain toughness, extra attack + health and win another trade.
Seems pretty good. It will require that he can get challenger consistently.

Aldo Loyal Badgerbear was once a 3 mana 4/4 and it was very strong.

The economy in this game is just awesome!
Thanks for the tip!
The current Go Hard deck is really what's keeping me from playing ladder. It is so tedious to play against.
