Hearthstone?! (Blizzard online card game) - Page 807 - Hearthstone -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

yeota: I don't know your collection so I'm unsure of how many cards from the classic set you're missing, but.. I would have to assume spending money for naxx ($25 for essentially 3500 = 35 packs = ~0.72 cents per pack) is the best value.

There is 10 essential cards in naxx that sees tournament play and ~5 others that can be included in that list.

Capone0: Emperor is easily tier 1.

Holy **** I am awful with every deck right now. Trying some different stuff, but I've dropped from like rank 7 to rank 12 because I just can't win a game with any deck.

maybe a dumb question but when my opponent has a trade prince, why don't I have unlimited mana?

You get a coin when you cast a spell

I've seen Shamans hex their own minions to get a taunt.

It's a special coin with a card text that says you don't get another coin for using it.

Anybody else feel like the meta right now is full of cancer?

Like all the strong decks are just annoying decks imo. Patron Warrior, Zoo, Face Hunter, Flamewalker Mage, it just seems like you have to go aggro to fight for board control and if they curve out properly there's almost no counter to it.

IDK if I'm just frustrated because I'm dropping ranks and losing a ton of games but it just seems like none of these decks are fun/interesting to play against.

It's funny, people thought BRM would slow down the meta. If anything, it's been the opposite - the key cards from the set all enhance aggro and combo decks (flamewaker, grim patron, emperor).

I wish the next set adds cards like Sludge Belcher to counter all the AIDS.

it has slowed (almost ONLY because of thaurissan), combos arent fast.

Still terrible cards ruining the game like mad scientist, tho.

Combos also make classes like control paladin pretty irrelevant -.-

0-5 with my hobgoblin deck right now this session.

Keeping going until I get a W lol.
The Hobgoblin himself simply is appearing. lol. Entire deck based around 2 cards.

edit: finally won a game lol.

You can get a sick board early on but if you don't draw the hobgoblin you're fecked.
Might change my Hobgoblin deck to warrior or warlock. I'm pretty sure warsong commander would work cause the buff occurs after they're summoned.

It just seems like playing control is almost pointless when every deck is trying to get damage down early and can lethal you from anywhere.

Grim Patron/Berserker can lethal you out of nowhere.

Zoo has combos like 2x PO, Darkbomb, Soulfire that can generate 15 damage for 5 mana.

Hunter is Hunter, can easily get tons of face damage even if you have a strong taunt.

Opened 4 legends in 15 packs today, lol. Harrison Jones, The Beast, Hemet Nestingway, and Captain Greenskin. Disenchanted 3 other legends (Mogor, Greenskin, Al'Akir) plus a few golden commons and created a handlock deck. Just missing Lord Jaraxxus.

Is al'akir a card you want to disenchant or is shaman just trash tier and no one plays it?

I opened bolvar fordragon after an arena run. What about him?

Al akir is a good class legendary. The midrange shaman is a weak deck at the moment, but it's at least competitive. It uses him as a finisher or anti aggro burst, very unique card. If you have something specific in mind to craft, you should DE. If you dont, hold off.

Bolvar is very bad. Some people swear he works in a control pally, but almost any other legendary or strong 5 drop is just better, in my opinion at least. I would DE him for sure.
