Hearthstone

I realize I may get flamed for this thread, but here goes:

I've been playing a lot of Death Knight recently, and I've noticed that whenever my opponent draws a Blood Plague or I use The Primus's Runes of Blood ability, I make nomnomnom noises to myself as I eat up that delicious health. I started doing it sort of unconsciously at first, but now I lean into it, smacking my lips with relish. It's stupid and silly, but it increases the fun I'm having while I play.

So, what do all you freaks out there do while you play that makes the game more fun for you? Scream out your favorite minions' call lines when you summon them? Chant FACE or SMORC when smacking the opponent? I'm sure some of you have some silly little things you'd like to share.

I saw an old article along the side of the OoG Hearthstone portal regarding achievement hunting and thought... "I wish we had more content like that."  And if you wanted that too, you're welcome!

Death Knight - Puppy Power!

I made this list the first day of the expansion and completed the Puppy Power! achievement first game.  The goal was to just summon as many doggos as I could, and it worked well.

Demon Hunter - No Nerfs Needed

Well isn't that the most bold faced lie ever?!  I honestly don't have a specific list for this, but I'm sure you could probably just slot Ci'Cigi any of the current Aggro DH lists.  Just remove whatever you feel the weakest card is currently and then BAM!  Slap that Collectable Card Game minion right into that spot!  Enjoy some easy wins all while also completing the achievement!  In the below list you could even consider swapping out a Frequency Oscillator as he's horrid if you don't get him early.  If you want to maintain the same amount of early game, maybe Pozzik, Audio Engineer???  He can help disrupt an opponent's game plan, but when played too late he seems to just give the opponent resources to play rather than slowing them down so you don't get some 3/3 mechs.

Kris O Five's list:

Hunter - The Good Spots in Life

Just play the list below, posted by gutsy, and grind until you've summoned enough doggos!

Mage - Sob Story

I actually found this deck including Watercolor Artist on another site (which shall not be named) and copied it into a deck on this site so I could link it for you!  The deck was made by Kibler, so maybe it's good?  I have no idea.  Good luck!

Paladin - Stocked Inventory

There was only one deck I could find with the needed minion included (Wind-Up Enforcer).  I'm not sure if it's good or not though.

So I made a deck in about two minutes!  It's a Wild Handbuff Paladin with [Hearthstone Card (Vala'nyr) Not Found] because I LOVE that card!  I am only providing the code, not posting an actual deck page yet, because I just made the list.  I haven't taken the deck "out of the packaging" much like the Enforcer is still in the box.  So I'm not sure how it will perform, if at all.  But... Enjoy!

Priest - Spring Cleaning

Just no!  I'm not going to even try with this one.

Rogue - It's a Steal!

Pretty straight forward... just play Pirates!

Shaman - Blue Participation Ribbon

We're giving out participation awards now?!  At least this one gives you a chance to serve up some delicious, and potentially spicy Tendies!

I'm going to call it there for now... This is taking a long time and I've got shit to do!  My three month old's ass isn't going to wipe itself!

If you have any other ideas for achievements already covered, or for Warlock, Warrior, and Neutral achievements please share below!

Congrats, that's a really cool achievement. I hope your situation gets better soon.

Regarding the bot situation, I'm experiencing the same at the moment. I've decided to try and go for triple legend this month as in all three game modes on EU and so far, I'm facing like 95% bots in Classic. Once you figured out how they work, they're fairly easy to beat and it seems like ranking up is more of a question of patience than anything else. Might yet change though, I've only reached the platinum ranks so far. I'm a little confused why Blizzard keeps the mode alive and tolerates the bots at this point to be honest. 

I've been playing a bit of Classic lately, and with all the rumours flying around about the potential upcoming Death Knight class being added to the game, I thought I'd share a theory.

Back in one of his AMAs, Iksar was throwing a few theories around about what might become of classic, and he said this:

Quote From IksarHS

One that replaces classic. Rotates, but not super often. Think Classic –> MSOG, then 6 months or a year later it rotates to something else.

He only mentioned Gadgetzan as an example. What if the next expansion is Northrend-themed, and Classic mode rotates to what was then Wild (or Standard) mode when Knights of the Frozen Throne came out? Or, perhaps more likely, the Spreading Plague/Fiery War Axe nerf patch.

I would be pretty geeked about that as that was the time when I first started playing competitively, trying to rank up and collect cards.

With no new cards being added to the mode, do you think it will become unbalanced and boring?

As an f2p player who joined HS during Kobolds and Catacombs, I am really looking forward to being able to experience what HS was like at the beginning. What cards and decks are you guys and gals going to be playing when it releases? 

I'm probably going to be messing around with some cards which get their nerfs reverted like Warsong Commander.

Hey everyone,

With the recent announcement, anyone care to share any tidbits or some nice-to-know info?

My take-aways from the announcements:

• Unlike Hall of Fame, no dust for cards that will rotate out of the core set. (I really regret holding onto Edwin)
• No point in holding unto classic packs since the new core set will be free

**Disclaimer: this is just my understanding, so I may be wrong or have misunderstood.

This forum is to discuss Hearthstone's Classic Format!

• Arrives on set rotation this year.
• You get to play with the original 240 Hearthstone cards as they were in 2014 - no nerfs or buffs!
• Your collection gets mirrored - having the current card also gives you the older card.
• This is only with Basic & Classic cards. No other additions have been announced.
• Has its own matchmaking pool and ranked play mode.
• Games you play count towards achievements.
• Cards that were added to the Classic set past 2014 will no longer be included in Classic Packs but instead can be crafted.
• Demon Hunter will not be playable in the format.
