    posted a message on Do you read books?

    I've used to read a lot when I was younger but nowadays, because of limited free time, I spend more time listening to audiobooks. I'm a huge fan of fantasy novels (currently making my way through Horus Heresy) and good thrillers/mystery/crime novels. The only types of books that I stay away from are self-improvement books because I don't need a guidebook on life.

    I'm loving the change to Jaraxxus and Malificent hero powers. Additional buffs to demons and especially mechs are always welcomed.

    Murlocs win a lot of high mmr lobbies. In fact most that I'm seeing so far.

    It's high risk only because the game is too fast. If they fix the game like they need, megasaur will be a constant problem.

     What do you consider high mmr? I'm at 9k and don't notice an overabundance of murlocs.  They are one of the toughest end game builds to beat, but I don't seem them winning more lobbies than the other really strong comps just because they are usually harder to assemble. 

     This is Hearthpwn. Everyone is by default at 9k and top 100 legend. Didn't you know that?

    Ghoul doesn't do enough, by the time you know you need it, it's too late, the stats beat you.

    Deathrattle comp doesn't beat murlocs. I'm around 9k mmr I've seen deathrattle comp beat murlocs maybe once in like 50+ final games. You need insane luck.

    Because of megasaur, there is no comp that can out-scale murlocs as the game progresses. They also need to massively slow down the game (cap damage) which would give murlocs too much time to build up and outscale everyone. 


     Then buy Ghoul early on and keep him in your hand. Imagine that mindblowing concept :O

     Ok hand's down, I Macaw needs a (slight) nerf. This shit was the most disgusting easy to get end-game build I've ever seen.

    The fact that it's a t2 unit and stays relevant throughout the entire game since he is a beast itself is just too strong. I transitioned from a Spawn into beasts. Hell, you can probably make it even stronger with just having Macaws over and over again and 1 Goldrin.

    The fact that it triggers "after attacking" and "before dying" is just too good. I went from -10HP on my first Macaw to +20 and it survived. I think it should trigger his effect but still still die in this case to balance it.

    Goldrin didn't even die after it went golden, since it had ridiculous stats. I got it up to 82/82 before crushing my opponent. Shit is disgusting. The last 4 rounds I didn't even change ANYTHING and kept crushing. Only thing would be another triple or a Ghoul just in case I face Murlocs... which I actually did, but his stats were pathtic compared to mine and even his entire divine shield comp was easily destroyed. Tho, he had only 1 had poisonous.

    Seriously tho, even without getting goldens, it's a very, very consistent build you can put together on the fly way to easily and on t5 no less. I'd strongly advise for any divine shield taunt tho, but even the 1/1 is enough for that. Just need to make sure the first Macaw goes off.

    I'm pretty sure that my friend who I was spectating lost to you in the finals because I remember this exact board composition. It wasn't even remotely close.

    This thread is a joke. You're wondering why did the updates stop in a time period when the US is basically Coronalad.

    Actually, the game is boring if all you do is play net decks and grind the ranks. I myself am really impressed with the amount of interesting decks that are available in the game now. Moreover, the game is actually not so one sided as it usually is. There is no clear dominance of any class and you can pull off some really crazy combos. I myself have to say, that this is one of the best meta's ever.

    I disagree. I find winning fun. However, I can't rememebr the last time that I have played regular HS. I've almost completelty abandoned it for BG.

    To the OP: Do you live under a rock?

     That's so sad.  You must really have nothing better to do.  And no, I don't live under a rock.  Not sure why you decided I do.  But maybe you can explain.  You have nothing better to do.  

    Awww, you guys, the little one got so used to losing that winning isn't worth his time anymore. Who's a little bronze player? Yes, you are. Good boy!

    If you finish your quest every time, it's not too difficult to get 100 gold daily in total, that way you can get each chapter of an adventure within the span of time between chapters.

    And if that's too difficult, quests are at bare minimum 50 gold, and the adventure gets released over 28 days, so thats 1400 gold while the adventure is being released, the other 1400 you'd have to grind yourself, which would take another 28 days. So 56 days if you don't win any games or get any quests above 50 gold

    That's 2 months, aka half the time of a single expansion being live (assuming the regular 4 months between expansions).

    It's not that difficult. Galakronds awakening came out january 21st. Ashes of outland came out april 7. If you saved like, less than half of the gold in between those releases you'd have the whole thing by now.

    Adventures are a lot better for f2p players than expansions because of the certainty. 2800 gold nets you 2 legendaries in this case. 28 packs would on average get you 1 or 1,5, but 0 if you're really unlucky.  

     100 gold daily would mean 50 gold for wins which is 15 wins. That on average means 30 games (25 to 35 probably) which will take 250-350 minutes which is 4-6 hours of playing Hearthstone daily. I'd say that's difficult for most people.

    4-6 hours of grinding hearthstone for a $2 pack ... I admire your grit but your time should be worth more than that.

    I could also grind working minimum wage for 4-6 hours during that time instead and get 50+ packs.

    Time = money is probably the most flawed argument that one can come up with. Time =/= money unless you would earn money from investing your time. If I sit down and jerk off for half an hour how much money did I just lose? How much money did you lose today while prepping that 5$ meal? Did you lost more than 5$ worth of time from doing so or did you lose money?

    Deathwing is one of mine main picks. If I see Deathwing, I pick Deathwing. My fav tribes are beasts and murlocs. Deathwing allows me to get the rat and rush upgrade to tier 6 while still having a competitive board during the rush. Love it!
