Hearthpwn

Good lord! There are some whiny little b!tches out there on the internet!

We are about to get something entirely optional, for free, which to most of us is hugely exciting! If you don't like it, don't play it - your Hearthstone experience will be just as it was before so enjoy that.

The rest of us will have a blast. Sure, short-duration netdecks will be a factor in the early days but people are unlikely to bother posting them after the 10th different tavern scenario.

In fact, if I were brainstorming and trying to think of a mode which encouraged creative deck building while minimising the negative effect of netdecking, I don't think I could come up with a better idea than Tavern Brawl.

• It requires innovative solutions to brand new design constraints.
• These constraints change regularly such that a metagame will be unable to settle and all netdecks will become useless almost as quickly as they are posted.

As previously mentioned, it is unlikely that many players will craft cards purely for a particular weekly brawl scenario. This should mean that many people are unable to build whatever netdecks do spring up for a particular week. Sure, players with large collections will prosper but that is also true for Ranked play.

tl;dr Tavern Brawl is a brilliant idea for deck builders. A significant proportion of keyboard warriors are d!cks.

The duration of Brawls is too short to settle the meta and netdeck?! Really? It's 7 days. Decks to beat Naxx or BRM bosses were posted here after 7 minutes the wing was released. And brawls will be the same. So Amaz starts his stream, makes a deck for a Brawl and Bang! 2000 people are playing the same deck. But that's the nature of modern online gaming, so we can do nothing about it. I still really hope for a mode that has absolutely no rewards (even quests not doable) so all the "I want to play fun decks" went there.

Worst...comparison...ever :D

Beating an AI and Controlling the meta of ~10 Million Players has nothing to do with each other.

 

FYI the Basic Tools for zoo were in HS for months till someone made the deck. Yes brawl will have some netdecking. NO it wont effect the meta a lot cause you cant create dominating decks in 1 week.

another bad comparison, you're talking about when hearthstone was new and the mechanic basics were barely known.

Those people talking about 10x unstable portal does they realize that the decks are build with their library? who has 10x unsable portal or plans to craft them? Lol.... "Smart people" here.

... And that escalated quickly.

What do Americans have to do with the thread anyway?

Literally nothing. OP is just a jealous European troll who can't afford $10 for a hero portrait and has to shit on all content in the patch as an outlet for his immature rage.

It's okay OP, the American game company that allows your pathetic ass to play this game will still allow you to play.

I've spent $1500 on the game lmao, $10 is laughable.

Ummm.... blizzard has explicitly said that some weeks will be pre-built decks. So they could build a unstable portal deck for you.

Ummm no, spending $1500 on this game is laughable.

No, definitely laughable in general.  Unless you're a streamer or a player making money off of the game, $1500 is pretty insane.

Not sure what has been going on with this thread, but let me try to give some opnions without being "the man" LOL

In one of Zerayas tweets she literally said that brawl is limitless, and I understand that it means that the rules that they create will be "free" from the normal HS limits.

There is no place that rule out fun or crazy decks like we had on adventures, So you may have a 30 card unstable portal deck like the mage challenge in a certain brawl week, as you can have a standard pick your own cards on certain rule, like only odd or even mana cards, only beasts, or whatever.

Think that Kripps Challengstone format that TempoStorm team runned some weeks ago, is a good example of the use your own cards under crazy rules like in Brawl mode.

lets try to discuss ideas guys, not to poke other with zasty comments...

Just my 2 cents, peace ...

I have to congratulate the troll Arks0 for creating this thread and getting his only golden achievement.  There is a reason that Americans dominate this game and will take the 2015 trophy.  As far as the topic goes, he couldn't be more wrong, tavern brawl will be awesome.

Locking this steaming pile of toxicity.
