huntard or mid-range hunter? you have to understand that most of the way to legend you'll encounter pesky counter decks. i'd say kolento's mid range is the best as it loses the least. but it is not as fast of the aggro decks. between zoo and huntard, i'd go huntard though.

thanks

Where can I buy some high quality cookie cutters?

I know I sound like a dumbass who just want to hit legendary with the skill-less class, but I am very limited in time, I know I can reach legend or at least rank 1-3 but I dont have much time to spend on hearthsonte :/

"I can hit rank 3~1 legend": I read this from every single player in the world, literally. everybody thinks they're legend material with any kind of deck and that they could pilot any control list they're given

I dont think I could get to legend with any kind of deck, but I managed to get to rank 6 last season with a shaman deck that I made entirely myself with a very limited schedule, the season ended and I wasnt stuck or anything.

During the beta I had way more time in my hands, but the new ranking system wasnt available, I was 3 star master and won several friendly twitch tournaments, I faced and beaten some really good now legendary players, I even won a tournament that trump participated.

I have a bunch of dust, just need to find the right deck that I like and ill do my best trying to hit legendary, but I work 72 hours a week up until next month.

Even if they gave top 1 deck (which not exist), if you are not a good player, you don't know about trades, cards, what to and when to do is worthless.

No suck deck as I PLAY THIS, I HIT LEGEND.

Ofc there is none, the game would be boring but lets say some decks are way better than some other, I'd bet that 80% of the players who hit legendary this season played hunter or warlock.

So you're basically recommending spending your time on 2 accounts, which will make your card collection grow half as slow :(. I've done the same thing with League of Legends but I wouldn't advise it.

It depends on what your goals are in the game.  This thread is about ways to play the arena often without paying real money for it.  One effective way to do so is by using 2 accounts, which doubles your daily quest income, allowing you to have more gold to use for Arena entry.  Yes, it does split your play time across multiple accounts, slowing your collection growth slightly.  But it certainly does not slow it by half, as most of my gold income comes from quests and arena rewards.  The meager 10 gold per 3 wins from constructed play is the least time-efficient form of income in the game. 

Also, many players are interested solely in Arena and not constructed; card collection matters little to these players.  If you are interested primarily in constructed and want to fill out your collection ASAP, this method is probably not right for you.

this.

If you are playing 2 different accounts, best to put them on different timezone servers, so that you do not face the problem of both accounts being down for maintenance concurrently.

yeah I agree, this is also valid if you want to be able to play tournaments on EU and US

Quote from wrathss »

This is fine and should be okay with Blizzard as well. I don't think it is a problem to have the same account play on a different region? (I don't know because I only play on the US server and don't have a gold problem). In that case you have quests stored up to be completed in different regions and should be able to pay for quite a few arenas.

It is not against blizzard rules to have multiple accounts

Quote from Kreekakon »

I think it's generally just worth it to play arena on your main account, and use the gold you win from that to just keep on playing. If you're good enough at arena...which by your multiple 12 wins I'm pretty certain you are, you should be able to fund your arena runs constantly.

Creating new accounts, and grinding your way through the tutorials every time is just too much of a hassle in my opinion, and the time could be better spent otherwise.

If you have enough gold on your main account just go for an arena run. If you slightly fell off, use the 1 hour to 1.5 hours to win back some gold in constructed.

While I agree, not everyone can get multiple 12 wins and play arena forever and if you dont care much about constructed, why waste your time winning 45 constructed games to play 1 arena ?

Quote from NumberSeven »

all classes to level 10 is 300 gold if i remember correctly. If you do it first before you go into arena you'll have a better idea of how the heroes play before you're thrown into arena

100g actually but I dont think you got the point of my thread, my "tip" to get free arenas is pretty much for people who want to play arenas even though they are out of gold, so obviously they already played arena.

Quote from RealTazzek »

Thats great and all except you can't send gold or cards to you other account so what's the point? You just have a bunch of new player accounts that blizzard will eventually catch on to and either ban hammer you or make it so you need to reset your account info for unusual log in activity. 

TL;DR: don't do this, it's a bad idea 

I like to play arena for fun, I am the kind of player who would want a 0 reward practice arena.

I doubt making new accounts is against blizzard rules, especially that they accept multiboxers.

I know a lot of you, like me, who really enjoy playing arena but do not get infinite gold and dont want to spend money for arenas, we all get to a point where we hit 0 gold and have no quest left, or not enough for another arena. Well here how you can play arena for free at the price of 1h-1h30 of your time for 2-3 arenas (likely 3)

-Make a new battle.net account (I suggest swithing region in case you get lucky and draw good legendaries in your packs, so you may want to keep the account, since you cant trade cards or anything, better have an account on another region so you can join more tournaments or simply have a bigger pool of friends).

-Quickly finish the tutorial and kill all the heroes (should take you 1h-1h30), I use the mage deck and tweak it a little to have more of a rush deck, using the basic decks works too

-You will unlock a free arena and 100 gold, do not buy any packs, go ahead and your free arena.

-You will get a free card pack after 1 game and 100 gold after 3 games.

-You now have 200gold plus whatever you got from that arena, you can now play another arena and a third one if you managed to make 50 gold during these 2 arenas.

Thats it, repeat as necessary :)

ps: it can be frustrating sometimes, I went 3 wins twice in a row on my main account, then got 12 wins on my second account, went back to my main and got 2 wins just to go back to my second account to get another 12 wins lol.

Thanks ill try it out, I dont have tirion but I have rag

After the patch came out, I played a few games and easily got to rank 12 with my paladin aggro deck, with like 90% win rate (I was 3 star master before) I stopped playing for 2-3 weeks because of irl issues and I started playing again. I couldnt believe it, I am getting destroyed by just everything and everyone, I think I lost like 10+ games in a row and I am now close to rank 16, I know about the new meta, tried around with some decks but no succes (or extreme bad luck ?). Anyone can link me a rank 10 or less deck I could use, any class.

I always thought it was an amazing card, but I never see anyone use it, in the very worst case scenario, its still a 4/4 and a 2/2 taunt, which, imo, already make it for the cost, plus if hogger survive another turn, you get another 2/2 taunt (which happend at least half of the time I summoned him). My guess is that people dont use it for the same reason people dont use silver hand knight for example, I guess because people used to have aggro decks but now that the meta have shifted, maybe hogger can be used in some decks, any thoughts ?

PS. 3 Stars master doesn't really mean anything, you know that you can't fall from your current rankings right? If you keep on playing, you'll be able to reach 3 Stars master eventually. It all depends on your hidden MMR and I don't think mine's that bad with 500 total constructed wins with around 60% win rate.

While you got a point, you are not completely right. Instead of dropping rank, you will be stuck forever at the same rank. Pre wipe I let my little brother play on my account (he is horrible) and he got me stuck at 2 star silver for 500 wins, yes, 500 wins, I got the picture somewhere, it took me like 100 wins at 80% wins to finally rank up. After the wipe he got his own beta key and I went from recruit to 3 star master in 50 games or so with a 95% win rate or something like that, then I went down to 70% wins when I kept playing at 3 star master. A friend of mine found a murlock druid deck, he wins 70% of the time at gold, but at 3 star master, I can barely get to 40% wins. Not everyone will reach 3 star master eventually like you say, they will get stuck at some point and think its a bug and create a bug report thread, there a ton of them. Ranks do represent your skills, at least how fast you get to x rank represent it.

70% wins at 3 star master right ? I'll give this deck a try, also, I believe leeroy + cold blood + shadowstep will do 16 damage and not 20, no ? If you could upload a gameplay video it would be awesome.

Also, I dont have the bloodmage, what would you suggest as a good replacement ?
