just dont watch streamers, i dont even bother anymore now to watch them it kills all hype for new decks.

i will play stuff thats funy to me not for them and they All go for the best decks anyway so not my beer, my decks will be maby t3 but i dont carre at least i have fun the first few hours...

 I will do this next time. The temptation to see the new cards is so high though, but it does spoil things ultimately.

I don't see how anyone can complain about losing hype for the game just because some streamers were able to test out some new decks.  

Good for them.  Now you have 1 extra week to know what not to waste time trying.  

And maybe you learned something about the card interactions that will help you in your own deck.  

Saying this is ruining anything for you is like saying you have nothing better to do than sit and watch streamers.  

Go out and live your life.  There is a whole world out there to see and you waste time complaining about stuff you yourself couldn't help but get sucked into.  

Hearthstone is not a life, it's just a card game.

Remember the good old days when the first couple weeks was full of experimentation and building innovative decks? Sure there were always numbnuts playing decks with zero new cards, but overall the beginning was full of trying out stuff and looking for the next crazy synergies. Best time to play HS imho.

Now... it seems like Blizzard wants us to not focus on experimenting because they insist on giving streamers a week of pre-release experience that they know full well people will blindly copy-paste day one after opening and crafting. Of course the meta won’t be settled by any stretch, but it does begin taking shape faster than it should.

And it’s working. I read a post earlier where OP stated that the hype is decreased by Blizzard giving streamers early access and others reamed into him because “that’s the way it is, get over it” nonesense. 

For those who will still come up with their own decks and actually experiment in the early stages of the expansion, I applaud. Thank you for keeping the game interesting. 

 Personally I will experiment and I will crush those beneath me. I guess it all depends on how good an experimenter one is.

Those fucking salty players won't stop blaming and their cries at all. And there is nothing wrong with watching the stream, you just take a small peek and see how goes it out well. How is this experience ruining it? Moreover, If they are ruining your surprise, then why didn't you stopped watching this? What the fuck.

Those kinds of them are fucking salty players and they will find any way to make the game look shit, at this rate when this expansion gets a lot more of hate, the next expansion will have the community flooding with tears or salts at any time. For me, it is now impossible to start caring this type of people.

I'm done with those people who are against Hearthstone, this game could have a possibility of improving all features. Yet everyone already throwing curses nonstopping toward the game and developers.

Fuck those who are worshipping the game as a main thing of their life. I'm just going to have some fun with new tools the game offers me while I can.

It's simple. You have no fun experimenting anything in this game anymore. The deck levels are too high that building a fun deck doesn't work anymore. Imagine if you build a fun deck and go 0-20 ass-kicked by all those busted as fxxk decks, you may just delete the game.

So simple way to fix it - skip the experimenting period. Let all players net-decking and play.

12 games from yesterday, 5 cyclone mages. well done boys, hope you rot in hell :)

Actually I see a very different motive here . . .

The streamers always spend the first few days trying to make new wonky decks work.  You know what no streamer has been playing since Saviors was unlocked for them?  Control Warrior and Conjurer's Mage.  This, despite the fact that there is no real reason to believe either of these decks are getting knocked off the t1 positions they occupied the last few months.

When you watch a bunch of your favorite players engaging in memery without any thought to actual competition, you might become convinced that certain new cards are essential to decks that will win.  Inevitably, most of these decks will turn out to be garbage, but if you craft the Paladin quest in the meantime, all the better.

I've been saying for years, hold all crafting for SEVERAL weeks after a new set.  But no one listens.  And this is the best model to encourage impulsive crafting.  Not that I'm blaming Blizzard.  Fools and their dust are soon parted.  But I suspect that is what's going on.

 so are you saying that paladin quest is garbage ;), i think you jumping the gun here before meta settles, have had great success with it so far, but then again will wait till meta settles, definitely fun quest to play aswell although it takes much slower to activate the quest which could be its downfall
