This thread is for users to indicate how close they are to leaving the game and/ or why. 1 = Very Happy With The Game 5 = Game is still playable, but has some (big) problems that need to be fixed 10 = Leaving (I'm making this because I'm interested in seeing how people feel) With 10 i mean that you're quitting for good and not coming back to the game unless it drastically change.
I'm currently on a 7-8 myself, (just to give a example) i play some brawls - a bit arena - and get to at least rank 20 every month for the cardback, sometimes i play a little bit of casual.. But other than that I've stopped playing.
I personally don't prefer one format over the other. Some days I want to play standard and other days wild. As long as both formats exist we don't have to argue which one is better.
6. I gave up on trying to grind the ladder ages ago and, frankly, treat HS as a "casual phone game" these days. It works great for this purpose and helps speed up my daily commute in both directions. However, if I'm in the mood for a skill-based CCG, I load up Duelyst instead; Their development team and overall game structure seems to have a much higher focus on actual tactics rather than coinflips and horrendously broken cards.
I've never gotten to legend, and do not care. I've gotten to rank 5 (or it was close to rank 5) only once in my life. I pay money to buy packs, so I'm kind of stuck, leaving the game means leaving behind a bunch of invested money. I don't play every day, but I'm enjoying the game as it is. I understand that certain classes will be much stronger or weaker than other classes based on the expansions available in standard. Good decks will "rotate out" when the first expansion in 2017 hits, and new decks will come into play. I'm excited to see what new cards they'll add to the game, and how it'll change the meta.
This game is fun for me. I'm not saying that it doesn't need changing, but I'll be patient. It's not too abhorrent of a game right now. Especially since we have Wild format, Brawl and Arena, then the game doesn't get stale.
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
The Roshambo to Hearthstone. Please be nice. Don't insult or be mad at someone for throwing Rock.
I'm a FTP player and I'm content for the most part (gave it a 2). I think they did a good job with the game except that Blizzard sucks when they nerf a card...they totally remove its worth as a card. i.e. Starving Buzzard, Warsong Commander, Blade Flurry etc. But I can still have fun with the game in spite of their stupidity with a handful of cards.
I'm perfectly happy with the game. I was expecting heroic karazhan to be more challenging, but I wasn't really upset about it.
Honestly, I wish I could come to the forums and find more constructive discussions. Instead there are a lot of people complaining that there's nobody to lace up their diamond shoes for them.
can we have a doomsday clock set up for how much longer we put up with all these goddamn whiny shitposts? we have a salty thread for a reason. i post there daily. you should try it too, op because this shit right here is not constructive in the slightest.

1. Is there something wrong with wanting to known how other people find the game? Like wth...
2. Your comment ain't the slightest constructive either...
I think the game is still quite healthy, but it could be much better. With lesser peaks on both aggressiv/burst and control sides.
Standard is cheesy, but that's what keeps standard in check, even if there are very aggressive decks with some OP cards. At least, you know what's going on and can try to counter.
Wild is far less cheesy, yet it has some cancerous cards like Dr. Boom and Mysterious Challenger + Avenge (which needs direct counter, which in turn is not worth it out of those specific games) that make it quite frustrating. Yet playable (Yogg Saron, Hope's End always gives me hope to win no matter what).
That's right, Boom is neutral card, so what? If one certain card is played almost everywhere it's not healthy to meta. Wild will never be balanced, Blizzard dont really care about Wild, and with every expansion this format will get more and more unbalanced. If ther's many expansions then mixing every one printed card from all expansions into one format will always rekt meta, that's why card games have formats or ban lists (Yu-Gi-Oh)
Wild is nice if you have broken T1 deck, but difference betwen T1 and other Tiers here is much larger than difference in standard tiers.
Standard meta is awful. Wild and Casual are the only reasons I really play the game. "We don't want cards that are so strong, they are auto-includes and don't leave room for other choices in a deck. Here's a 4 mana 7/7 and a 0 mana 5/5 taunt."
Reminder that 4 mana 7/7 still isn't good enough to be an auto-include.
7 here. I stopped for about a year and came back around april 2016. I'm at 7 again, entertaining the possibiilty of quitting for good.
Why 7? When I came back I set a goal to get all remaining heroes to level 60 & golden portraits (I had only Rogue and Warlock at that when I stopped playing HS).
I'm about 12~14 days of finishing golden portraits for my mage then priest, so, all heroes done... after I finish this, not sure I will still play regularly or if I will enter another 'sabbatical' until next expansion or bigger changes.
I just don't like how Blizzard has decided to handle Hearthstone. This isn't about anything specific in general, but 99% of controversies go down like this:
"Hey Blizzard this is too bad/good please fix it"
"No, it's not"
"Yes it is"
"The data we always claim to have but never show suggests otherwise"
-Several months pass-
"Yeah we were wrong, here's a bunch of even better/worse cards so it doesn't look as bad in comparison"
This thread is for users to indicate how close they are to leaving the game and/ or why.
1 = Very Happy With The Game
5 = Game is still playable, but has some (big) problems that need to be fixed
10 = Leaving

With 10 i mean that you're quitting for good and not coming back to the game unless it drastically change.

I'm currently at 6, still try to get to r5 for the reward but im not having fun grinding trough endless waves of shamans.
SOMEONE DISAGREED WITH ME SO I AM OBVIOUSLY FUCKING WRONG. DISREGARD EVERYTHING IVE EVER SAID. 4 MNA 7/7 FUCKING BLOWS.

Yet in Wild you'll find Dr. Boom literally everywhere, as well as the beloved Secret Paladin...oh and ofc N'zoth is completely bonkers
I tried having fun once. It was awful.
eater of secrets
boom is a neutral card
not every deck is a nzoth deck
but keep trying to prove me wrong

10, because I play for fun with zero expectations of breaking rank 20. Shit, I have the most fun constructing decks. Satisfies my OCD itch.
I'm at a 3.

I thought this thread would have something to do with Doomsayer, ah well.
"THE END IS COMING"
The only thing thats keeping me is that I have to stay home and HS is a better option to fill my time.
I gave it a 4.
