Hearthstone

Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone else has a "hearthstone persona" or "gaming persona" that you wouldn't ever tell your Friends and Family About!

• I exclusively t1-netdeck
• I spam emotes as soon as i feel like winning safe, while having Opponents autosquelched
• When someone adds me on bnet for whatever reason after a game, I pretype and copy stuff like "AHAAAHAHAHA time to uninstall loser xD", paste that and immediately unfriend before the other guy can answer
• I sometimes rope on Purpose after my turn is clearly over, generally when I am about to lose

So as you see I am clearly a toxic Player, but only so in hearthstone. I have no reasoning or Agenda for my behavior. I am generally a chill player, easy to communicate with in mobas, WoW raiding etc. 

It is neither "blowing off steam" nor making me feel superior, it's just "part of the game" for me. Maybe I encountered that behavior in opponents before and felt like it got to me, so I feel the urge to give it back. It boggles me though, as i dont feel like I am that kind of a narrow-minded Person in any other part of gaming or life in General.

What is it that makes hearthstone, and only hearthstone bring out the worst, most destructive and pathetic behavior in me? Is anyone Feeling similar?

Cheers

P.s: I know that showing self-reflexion and awareness of toxic behavior does not justify it by any means or redeem me in any way as a Player.

Context - I was playing token druid, opponent was on bomb warrior. I was rank 6, 5 stars; he was rank 5.

On turn 2, I went face instead of trading with his Loot Hoarder, allowing him a free trade with my Dire Wolf Alpha. I'm fully aware that this looks like a mistake, but against a warrior, it's extremely important to get in as much damage as possible as early as possible with token druid, due to board wipe potentials. So I know it looks foolish, but I do it anyways. He emotes, "That was a mistake." I think I muted him.

I do, in fact win the game. Apparently he didn't have board wipes. I think I emoted "well played," because I always do that. To me, it's meant to be a polite way to end a game. Am I crazy to think it's polite to end a game with "well played"? Should I just never emote? Anyways, here's what happened after the game. The filtered words are f-bombs. (Side note: I'm married and have two children.)

Edit: Apparently I am inept at using the image insertion feature. Basically he screamed at me for emoting and then unfriended. I friended him again to inform him he did first, and he screamed some more. Here's the image link: Screen Capture of the comments

I just logged in on EU to get my daily, and I had a full quest log. I'm almost certain I was up to date with my log, and that I just got 3 quests at once today. 

Can anyone confirm/deny this, please?

I seen christianHS playing this deck, and it looks like fun. I'm missing the single copy of far sight and sandbinder though, and just wondering whether they would hurt the deck a lot by not being there? 

It appears to me at least that they are just there to make your life easier drawing into stuff, and not actually needed at all for the combo itself. should I craft these 2 cards or just run the deck without them do you think? They are both cards I know I'd probably use more anyway (the far sight more so as I play a lot of shaman decks)

here is the deck anyway. 

# 1x (0) Ancestral Healing # 2x (1) Helpless Hatchling # 2x (1) Southsea Deckhand # 2x (1) Stonetusk Boar # 1x (2) Likkim # 1x (2) Witch's Brew # 1x (3) Electra Stormsurge # 1x (3) Far Sight # 2x (3) Lightning Storm # 2x (3) Mana Tide Totem # 2x (4) Hex # 1x (4) Sandbinder # 2x (4) Storm Chaser # 2x (4) Witchwood Piper # 1x (5) Bloodlust # 2x (5) Hagatha's Scheme # 1x (5) Zilliax # 2x (6) Safeguard # 2x (8) Walking Fountain

Alright so today I felt like playing some bomb warrior games. Immediately I got punished because in about 90 minutes I only managed to play three games as two of them were mirror matchups. Oh well, that's what I get for playing a slow deck.

Anyway, long story short, I lost both those mirrors. My question is: what game plan should one approach in the bomb warrior mirror match?

My initial thought was to try and win the fatigue game. Bomb warrior isn't an aggressive deck and has a ton of removal so trying to outrush each other seems like a waste. My gameplan was to hard mulligan for Dr. Boom, Mad Genius and to not play a single draw card. My opponents, on the other hand, hastily played all their Acolyte of Pain and Shield Block. In the end both times their Elysiana was better than mine and despite me being 4-5 cards ahead in fatigue I lost.

So, how should one approach the bomb warrior mirror? Try to rush them down and stuff their deck with bombs ASAP, or take it slow and wait for fatigue?

Hi guys, I recently found that Zilliax cannot be discovered by Omega Assembly nor by Dr Boom Hero Power. I played warrior a lot and not a single time I see him. So, it's a know issue?

This thread is for anyone who has over 30 legendaries and tries to have fun with a full Legendary deck.

Here, you can share your decks, list some of the legendary cards remaining in collection (if you want any help in deckubuilding) and tell us something about your strategy and personal experience.

I'll start with my Legendary Hunter, here's the code:

AAEBAR8e6wL2AqQDjgSvBLoExQTCBvgIogn4DLkN1hHDFoUX4KwCz7ECnbQChbgCz8cChtMCnOICpOcC1uwCmu4CgPMCzfQCoIADvZkD1pkDAAA=

A total MVP of this deck (except Reno ofc) is Emeriss. When the game goes into late turns, doubling your powerful legendaries' Attack and Health made me a winner 100% of the time. In case of aggro, it often ended up badly, but there were some cases when my curve was perfect, my Barnes summoned a Legendary with a game-swinging effect and my Tinkmaster Overspark knew what he's doing.

My question is - Should I replace Genn with Justicar Trueheart? And do you think putting Jepetto Joybuzz here is a good idea?

Discussion officialy opened. THIS THREAD WILL BE LEGENDARY!

Personally, I would throw all the current class archetypes out of the window , and make previously weak cards usable in it like alarmobot , hobgoblin or whatever.

About half a year ago I noticed that was often angry or annoyed after jamming a couple of games of Hearthstone. After thinking about for a while I concluded that is was not because of meta or the deck I was playing, since it happened to me even in brawls and when I switched to a different deck. Since then I started to organize my play sessions in the following way: Set a number of games I want to win (usually 1-3} and play until I hit it.

Obviously, it is not a perfect system since you often have limited time to play HS (on train etc.) and sometimes you just want to win a brawl, finish a quest, reach a certain rank and the more you lose the longer it takes.

But in general, I found out that trying to win a set number of games I usually ended after resolving a huge Tess, getting good RNG or simply playing a clean and even game against my opponent. My play session even lasted less time since I just stopped after reaching the set number. Later I even started to listen to music while playing and found out that even the losses were enjoyable since they meant I could play another game.

Anyone else does something similar to combat tilting or has a specific way in which they organize they play sessions?

Netdecking is the hot topic and has been since netdecks became a thing. Everyone says they hate it and don't do it yet I can guarantee that 90% of those do with the caveat that they changed a few cards to make it their own deck. That's still netdecking.

In my opinion and I speak only for myself, netdecking is fine. It's a good way to get a deck up and going and jumping into the ladder.     When there is a healthy meta netdecking is fine as there is enough variety of meta decks out there and it's entertaining. The problem we have now is a very limited amount of decks in the meta so it is stale and the real issue - very predictable. We know exactly what cards the opponent has and what order they will be played and we can easily counter that.  Netdecks are an issue now as there aren't many of them and we're playing the exact same decks over and over and know just what's going to happen. It's the argument Kibler used for the issue with Odd and Even decks. This may not even be a netdecking issue but just the overall issue with Hearthstone now. We have a lot of months till the next xpac comes out and the buffs aren't all that great to shake anything up.

The Old Gods are back and with the Heroes of Dalaran Fighting the League the League of Evil it's Up to the Titans to defeat them

However the Titans are bringing their set of Special cards to aid them Constructs

But of Course a new Mechanic means new Synergies

Mechs, Elementals and Demons are all used by either the Titans or the Old Gods which means they will have quite a few new Synergy cards and such

Warrior

Tokens

Shaman

Tokens

Breaths

Rogue

Token

Paladin

Tokens

Hunter

Tokens

Druid

Tokens

Warlock

Mage

Priest

Neutral

Common

Token

Rare

Epic

Legendary

Legion Cards

As always feedback is appreciated

And by big I don't mean actual Big Rogue, but more along the lines of N'Zoth/Deathrattle Rogue or Jade Rogue.

Warriors, priests, and mages frequently get to spin the class identity/deck type wheel and completely change their playstyle, while rogue is kept stagnant for the longest time (tempo, combo, miracle).

Hi all... 

 I know. Its a little bit of a clickbait title isn't it? But I'm of the opinion that sharing decks with people is a good thing.

 I'm not talking about those decks that become Behemoths in the field. Those Page One Monsters that everyone plays because "Day One Legend In 25 games! EZ!!". Nope. Not those.

Dig a little deeper and you find some real gems. Look for a Random card in your Collection that appears terrible (Arena Treasure Chest for instance) and search for a deck built around it. In the depths of the Internet there are many and varied ones that will appear.

 This is the beauty of 'Netdecking'. Finding those crazy decks that might just work out for you because everyone else is playing those Page One Monsters. 

 Maybe it's just me. But that's the whole point of the Internet isn't it? To share ideas? 

 When I started playing MtG around '95 or so my friends and I had to rely on word of mouth and Magazine Articles for the newest and baddest decks out there. Now it's easy.

 So I implore you all, just because someone says Netdeck it should not be a bad thing. On the contrary, let's embrace it. 

I have been stuck at Rank 8/7 for the past month and it is killing me.  As much as I like to play Bomb Warrior and Tempo Rogue, I'm trying to get my golden Hunter hero.

I was able to grind up to 10 with Mid-Range Hunter, then got stuck.  Since then I have been playing the hell out of Mech Hunter.  But I am still getting stuck at Rank 7/8.  And here is where I am wondering about the tech in my deck:  I've been using Boommaster Flark but I do not find him to be that useful.  Whenever I drop him, Flark gets taken out quickly, as he should.  But I find myself trying to find ways to detonate the Goblin Bombs he creates.  The only consistency I have found is by dropping the Venomizer + Missile Launcher combo for a board wipe.  Has anyone else been able to make use of this card?

I've loved most of the villain heroes for the heist. Some of them are far and away the best for their class. In particular, Ol' Barkeye, who's just a lot of fun and a great concept, and Squeamlish, who is so cute and endearing, she doesn't even seem like a villain at all, just mislead by EVIL.

I really wish that the real reward for beating all chapters on heroic would have been to pick one of the heroes to use in other modes. Or, better yet, beat every chapter on heroic with a hero and keep them. That would be amazing!

Anybody else have favorites so far?

EDIT: Just fought Bonepaw with Squeamlish. He did his, "The bad guys are here!" intro and Squea, in a confused, somewhat hurt voice, responded with, "Me am not... bad guy..." :(

Any threads you know on this site or any other that has gold trading?

.

Do you think it is worth to craft it?

Mainly for Wild Even Paladin (as a sort of anti-meta deck, trying to mimic the role of Even Warlock and/or Even Shaman in some way), but not exclusively that.

Ebon Dragonsmith is also a card btw. It generates a neat (1) mana discount between itself and the weapon.

Are you one of the triumphant? 

Or like me; are you someone who has come so agonisingly close, but fallen with meerly two games to go?

I'm not sure there's an actual poll feature available as of yet, but for now a simple Yes (followed by the Class you succeeded with) or No will do!
