Hearthpwn

This nerf was necessary if Blizzard want to make this game to be taken serious. But the main  problem is  Blizzard doesn't look like that they want with the game:

"RNG is fun! people love it" lets make a  lot more!"

"RNG makes competitive Hearthstone bad! lets nerf RNG"

I don't this there is a way to make everyone happy. Or forget competitive and make RNG crazy cards or try to make the game a good esport and cut all the rgn crap.

I'm having way more fun in wild than standard.At the beginning I was playing the best decks I had in wild, and when I figure out the meta way way more flexible, I started to brew interesting decks. Even the games I lost I found memorable.

In standard, as was spected, turned to be very competitive and the stale meta was anoying. But what killed standard for me was Yogg in two competitive decks. Now I'm sure I'll never try to take Hearthstone on competitive side.

Excellent brawl for aggro players who want a 3 turn game and people who love to play Yogg but don't want to wait to turn 10 to flip the coin for the winner.

For me, honesty, I hope to never see this brawl again.

Randomness attracts casual spectators as casual is the game itself.

Poker is certainly more random than HS because there is no deckbuilding: randomness IS a source of entertainment. You certainly have a point there.

HS will grow in popularity as a casual game. Thereby increasing the pool of potential spectators for tournaments.

Randomness is a source of entertainment when it is mixed up with some sort of control. As if you could control randomness. It's almost a metaphysical thing, but it works. All true.

Yet, many other players and enthusiasts couldn't care less about tournaments exactly because of the same reason: control is bound to randomness, not the other way around.

I am one of them, I like the game but I have no interest in tournaments. And I am pretty sure I am not the only one.

 But if card draw RNG would disqualify Hearthstone as a competitive format, then so should things like poker and Magic, and we know both those card games thrive in the competitive scene.

Hello people,

     I saw this article on Splyce and I want to discuss it:

    https://splyce.gg/topics/post/468

    To resume, the author is saying that the fact the Hearthlytics team disbanded and Archon looks like is turning away from competitive scene raises a flag about the future  of Heartstone as competitive game.

   I kind of agree with the author here: I was very found to follow competitive scene on hearthstone, watching tournaments and such, and today I really don't care anymore. I heard another articles saying Hearthstone tournaments is getting less people than before (nothing to worry about yet), and some streamers get way more views than a big tournament. Do you guys think people is slowly moving away from watching Hearthstone tournaments? It is possible to improve the tournament scene? What do you think about this article?

   I will be glad to hear the opinion of the people here! Cheers!

Today I have made wild top-1 eu again with my patron deck. Still highly recommend it.  

Quote from Draco_Cracona >>

 Stalled out at 2 last season with freeze after every - literally every - deck was running double eaters. Other than the secret paladins, who sometimes were running Kezans instead - because you obviously need to tech against the 1% of the meta that is freezemage. I've swapped to tempo mage because a friend wants to climb together with it, but doing abysmally. mainly because secret paladins with Rag, healer and more big stuff than usual tends to trounce me. I don't have enough fireballs to keep the board clear, and I need to act as a control deck in that MU. Oh, I'm dead again.

Seriously considering dropping this tempomage and going back to Zoo - the last time I played zoo was back when undertaker was useful!

As a Freeze Mage main, I'm doing very well in wild (using reno freeze mage actualy). I saw very few control warrior and anti secrets techs until now, so the climb was very steady.

This season I'm trying some Druid, but until now I'm having some trouble to find a strong deck.

I tried Mage/Rogue and was that.

I love the concept of mixing two classes, ans I think this can be explored in the future. I guess a constructed version of this brawl would be great.

I really dislike this kind of rng, sucks most of the fun for me, but it is unnecessary to discuss that.

I never saw this card on wild and is already 2 weeks without seeing him on standard. I guess the hype is gone and now only people who really enjoy him are playing this card. 

My list is a bit different as well:

• Druid: Fandral Staghelm (amazing card)
• Hunter: Call of the Wild (I didn't expect to be so good)
• Mage: Cult Sorcerer (good enough to fit non C'thun decks)
• Paladin: Ragnaros, Lightlord (very good in any control deck)
• Rogue: Shadow Strike (great removal, I love it)
• Shaman: Flamewreathed Faceless  (just see people complaining everywhere)
• Warlock: Darkshire Councilman (the most annoying card in zoo decks.)
• Warrior: Bloodhoof Brave (every warrior runs it now, even some wild decks are running it)
• Priest: Shifting Shade (So-so card, but Priest is lacking good cards in this set)

I'm between Klaxxi Amber-Weaver and Hammer of Twilight

I was thinking the Klaxxi was going to make C'thun druid a good one ans the Hammer at least a option for Shaman. Both disapointed me greatly.

If you want a competitive legendary for both wild and standard - N'Zoh.

If you want to pray for RNG Jesus and have fun with a sloth machine - Yogg

Im my phone the game closes several times during a game. Its was so annoying I gave up and deleted the game...
