Started off at rank 20 and my first 10 opponents were: 7 quest druids, 1 quest warlock, 1 highlander hunter, 1 highlander mage

I'm only playing Whizbang until I get the opportunity to sit down and do some home brew deck building. How does it look for everyone else??

It's out guys, have fun. :)

Does anyone know how to get multiple card packs from the shop screen using in-game gold?  I've seen Kripp do it where he types in the amount he wants instead of having to go back and forth between the shop screen and pack opening screen one pack at a time. Thanks in advance.

With nine new Quests, it seems that we now have a conundrum- which classes (in Wild) have the best results by combining their quests into a single deck?

Here are my thoughts, ranked from worst to best!  Please note that a 5/5 is just okay (maybe Tier 4/3) because these are definitely memes.

Warrior- The only pair of quests with a distinct anti-synergy!  Boo, hiss, 1/5

Warlock- While not anti-synergetic by effect, the Warlock quests have exactly opposite goals.  I doubt there’s enough shuffle in the game to salvage a rapid-draw discardlock.  Maybe I’m wrong, but a better endgame HP change would be Jaraxxus or Bloodreaver. 2/5

Rogue- Somewhat anti-synergetic by effect- you’ll end up with 4/4 legendaries with unchanged costs. Wise deck building could probably offset that, but either way the quests are cannibalizing each other.  2/5

Druid- There aren’t enough big minions with Choose One to make the intersection of these quests’ target cards very big.  3/5 (unless Blizzard changes the rules and lets us have 2 quests, in which case 5/5 because they profit off each other’s weaknesses well if they’re together)

Paladin- These quests don’t NOT work together, and since we’re in wild anyway, there are some decent non-stat buffs that you can apply and copy with the hero power.  That said, both quests are a little bit “meh” on their own, and I don’t see that changing when combined.  4/5

Shaman- Not bad, but not great- a lot of murlocs have battlecry, and doubling their effects can do a lot- Corrupted Seer becomes Flamestrike, Coldligjt Oracle becomes Sprint, and in general murlocs turn into 7-cost basic spells on a stick ;^) But having to ration murlocs is never a good strategy.  4/5

Priest- This one is on the edge, but I think it’s doable.  Play an aggro deathrattle deck, stabilize, and drop your second quest with hopes to finish it by offsetting late-game damage.  It’s a control deck that’s really just three aggro decks in a trenchcoat, but it can still get into an R-rated movie.  5/5

Hunter- The first one that really excites me- I have had some success with Quest Hunter in the past and getting an endgame power by just chaining Raptors (and with Augmented Elekk/Feral Rage shenanigans, that can be 60+ raptors) is exciting.  5/5

Mage- The only one I expect to actually see.  These quests were MADE to be chained together, both will see play (mark my words), and they WILL see play together.  The new Hero Power feeds perfectly into warping time.  5/5

haha, had to make that joke. :)

obviously can only be played as the elise-druid hero.

After playing a few matches with Highlander Hunter I can definitely say I can see myself playing this deck for a long time in ranked this expansion, it feels great to get out King Krush with Brann and Zephrys adds extra value with the 'perfect card'.

If you opened the pre-order packs at a fireside gathering? Sure felt this way. 

Then it would be pretty bad, to open the packs previously. 

Here’s a place to pray to Lord of RNG Yogg-Saron for not getting the warrior quest as your free legendary. (Or any other quest really)

Ask him nicely and he might just listen to you.

Oh Great God Yogg-Saron, I ask you. Please don’t give me the warrior quest.

How can I unhealthily watch the timer go down so I know when to whip out the phone and start opening packs!?

On the left Solem (a wild streamer) playing Warlock with the Mecha Jaraxxus hero on August 5 2019. On the right Shadybunny (arena streamer) playing Warlock with the Mecha Jaraxxus hero on May 17 2019. Is this a bullshit jaina nerf for china again? I mean, what is that? A circle gear turns into mecha jaraxxus? Why did they change the animation that people paid real money for? When did they even nerf it, i didn't see anyone telling this. Fuck this. I'm never buying a 80 pack bundle again.

So tomorrow is the release day and I'm super excited, probably as much as most of you, my dear Hearthstoners. :) :) :) This expansion looks very good in general, but there is something I wanna talk related to the trailer Blizzard made for it...

It's about the Flexplosions' scene (starring Reno Jackson mounted on two camels). The first time I watched it, I thought the explosions were caused by... ehem... Reno's farts... I mean, just take a look at his pose, his movements and the camels' reaction, it looks like he is f...king farting!!! I didn't relate the explosions just to the movements he makes with his biceps, I really thought he was just making more and more force with his arms and opening his legs just to fart stronger and stronger!!! :( :( :( Please, seriously, look at the scene again and tell me it doesn't look like that... And the camels, yeah, the camels just look like they are not able to stand the f...king noxious smell!!! :( :( :(

I'm not gonna lie, I love the trailer (and the 10 hours version even more :P), it is great, but I can't stop thinking about this...

Am I the only one who was a bit confused after watching this scene for the first time, or not? :P :P :P

As the title says.

I think I'll keep two quests as usual, but I wanted to hear the opinion of some other wise player.

Hi, I have a question regarding the interaction between Emperor Thaurissan and Summoning Portal. 

Gamepedia states: "Emperor Thaurissan's effect has triggered while holding a 3-Cost minion. Summoning Portal reduces the minion to 1 Mana and Thaurissan's enchantment is applied afterwards, making it cost 0 Mana."

However, I just tested this. I played an Emperor Thaurissan with a 3-Cost minion in hand and played Summoning Portal the turn after. Unlike stated by Gamepedia, the Mana cost was still 1 instead of 0. Did Blizzard patch this? Or what is happening here?

If you discount the cost of a card, then use plot twist to shuffle it in to your deck. Does the cost of the card reset or remain discounted?

Hi

  Phaoris plot twist. I expect it as meme deck but might actually be fun. What i do fear is that it´s overrunn before starting to play. I thought maybe fit one Void Contract .

Deck ID Not Found

Almost every class has a guaranteed board clear, except mage. Why? According to Blizzard, the mage should excel in AOE. Is AOE something different from a guaranteed board clear? I do not understand. Any1 has ideas about this?

I've recently watched Thijs play this new freeze mage deck on his youtube channel in top 200 legend, is there any cards from the new expansion that seems like a good addiction? I'm yet to craft this but just wondering.

This is the deck code.

Someone told me that if you start an arena run right, stop at 2 losses then when it expires cause of new rotation you will get a free arena pass? That true ? 

Do you like giant Blubber Barons?  Oh who am I kidding, of course, you (forgot this card existed) do!

If you want to make some Big Blubbery Bois that could down a Deathwing, look no further than this deck!

Do you think battlecry shaman is going to be OP AF next expansion? From what I am seeing so far it wrecks every other deck that was built in the SoU beta these past couple of days. Might just be the well deserved counter to warrior, especially bomb warrior since it's gonna be all over ranked to grind singleton decks.

What do you think?
