YES!!!
I know, some people won't find it very exciting, but I wanted to see a Brawl like this happen for YEARS. Really happy that it finally happened.

Quote from NLbouncyknight >>yeah on you rank 50 nothing change
Rank 50? In Hearthstone?
Are you accusing him of being a low rank player that is ignorant because he doesn't agree with your opinion on the change? You do not know how much or how long he has played, or how good he is. You are just attacking him because you are mad he made a post complaining.

I'm at 23 wins right now with this deck and I'm hooked, can't stop playing anything else! Maybe try a bit of my own variations...

When I started playing Hearthstone before Naxx came out, the first rare card I opened was angry chicken, and I was like: "Whaaaat +5 attack?". I immediately threw it in my deck which didn't have any synergy at all. After I played the minion and I figured out the 'enrage' keyword I was so angry with the card. "HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DAMAGE A 1 HEALTH MINION?".
When I had a few more card I tried to build a warrior enrage deck, and it was useless. I lost every game with it.
However, I do like the early memories of when I started playing Hearthstone. So RIP Enrage - you never served me well.

Maybe do something like this instead?

I've actually not been on the bandwagon of "oh, here's another Hearthstone set to hate". I've genuinely enjoyed them all. I was more disappointed with the last expansion I guess - I was very low on mechs and most of the cards (which turned out to be right) - but I've had many good times in most of the expansions.
This time the expansion is starting to get to me - I'm just not excited, and I can't quite put the right words together. For one, I'm really annoyed that we once again have another Ragnaros card in Standard. Why bother moving Ragnaros out of Standard and into Wild if Blizzard is just going to keep finding new ways to reprint the same card? Can't we just enjoy Rag and Jaina in wild and leave it at that? Doesn't Blizzard have any *new* ideas to bring to the table here? What is this, like the 4th functional Rag reprint in 5 years? This is too much. I am not excited about Nostalgia. In order for nostalgia to work, you gotta let it simmer for at least 5 years, and probably more.
As for the other cards - I don't really care. Other than Overkill, there is nothing new or really that exciting in this set. Nothing is making me go, "Wow, that's a new way to play this game, to make my experience different from the last 5 years." Legendary minions that more or less do similar things to what we did before are not exciting. It's quite possible all of the change in leadership and card design @ Blizzard is just producing less exciting expansions too. Ben Brode could make anything appear exciting. But seriously, Oondasta is not doing anything we haven't seen done before in other ways, and it will play very similar to other cards but just do it slightly differently due to different keywords. Boring, especially for a marquee legendary.
I've been playing MTG Arena a lot lately too, and enjoying the hell out of it as well. I was always into magic, but mostly played Hearthstone because that's what was available. And while MTG definitely has problems with mana screw and flood that annoy me a great deal, when the game's are functional, I seem to be having more fun compared in a typical Hearthstone match.
The stream yesterday was also kind of meh. They still haven't learned to disable the rope timer during the reveals/discussions, so you got all of the OCD viewers (like me) becoming annoyed at not playing out the turn as they discuss all of this useless nonsense. Or they waste so much time discussing horrible plays in the attempt to discuss the new cards while possibly putting the entire game at risk due to the rope timer. This is so annoying.
It's also possible that because I haven't played this part of WoW, I have no connection to any of the lore or fantasy with the loas, so I am not that excited as I would be for The Frozen Throne for example.
Maybe I've just moved on from Hearthstone. This is the first time I have actually not put in for a preorder since preorders were possible. I know the game is as popular as ever, so I'm probably in the minority for being so down on it. I just don't know what changed other than what I've identified - it's hard to put into words - but I'm anticipating this to end badly unless Blizzard pulls out some really impressive surprises.

In the early game, it won't trigger the effect, and in the late game, it's too little too late

After this game I'm quite happy Ship's Cannon is not available in Standard...did not even Tap on 2, played Brann on 3 and Kazakus on 4. Still died before even reaching my turn 5 SeemsGood

Super hyped for this brawl! Actually gonna play more than just one game for sure :)

I would love an achievement system integrated into the game. Possibilities are endless, regarding possible reward and conditions for an achievement. (e.g. "Play 5000 Tirion Fordring" - Gain a Platinum/alternate art version of Tirion)
That would provide soooo much sense of progression for me. I feel there is not much to "play for" anymore...got all 9 golden heroes, 12 wins with every class in arena, hit legend 10-15 times.

How much tempo can you lose? Also makes Journey Below worse ... great :/

I cant wait for the day blizzard gives Anduin the "shaman-treatment"

Patron Warrior destroys Zoo. When I played it earlier this season I was 14-2 against it...granted it was while climbing the ranks but its still a very favoured matchup

Its the start of the season, everyone plays fast decks to climb quickly. It always was like this and will always be like this.
Please give the meta at least a few weeks to settle...btw I'm 14-2 with Patron against Zoo and around 50% against Aggro Shaman...just play something to counter those decks if you dont like them

I'm sick of Imp-losion, Dr. Boom, Shredder and all that good stuff as well, but I will not disenchant those cards. Maybe a few months down the line I want to go back and play in Wild...you never know :)

Great infographic! I love that kind of stuff :)

Very well written starting post, thumbs up!
Tbh I didnt think that much about Astral Druid yet, but Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound could be a very good addition to the deck as well. Scary to think about what happens when the deck draws according to plan. Lets just hope that doesn't happen too consistently
