Hearthpwn

So, I opened up a Renounce Darkness the other day and thought it'd be entertaining to play it on casual. I built a deck with a fair amount of survivability and card draw just so I could get it down and dick around with some new cards. Here's how it went:

Game 1: Opposing rogue drops a quest on turn 1. Fuck off; it's casual. Insta-concede.

Game 2: It's the 25th card in my deck. I play it, drop a few shiny new Shaman cards, and then die on the next turn.

Game 3: I get through 23 cards without drawing it before I die.

Game 4: I finally pull it out early on a turn 2 lifetap! The opposing mage coins out a secret on turn two for some reason. I play it anyways; it's Counterspell. Mage, I don't know who you are, but I will find you...

Game 5: Pirate warrior. Yeah.

Game 6: I finally get it off early against a slow opposing deck. Shaman; I end up with two copies of Al'Akir the Windlord. That was pretty cool.

Game 7: Another relatively early draw. Shaman again. Well this is less exciting.

Game 8: Opening hand again; I play it early. Shaman again. Are there any other fucking options?

Now I feel like disenchanting it out of spite (well, and because it's a useless card on ladder).

this is absolutley fucking INSANE just how well everyone else draws.  how am i supposed to play against game after game of 6 to 8 turns of the nuts, fucking every game?  how is this fucking POSSIBLE to run this goddamned badly?????????????

AH COOL I FINALLY QUEUED INTO NOT AN AGGRO DECK

MAYBE IT'S SOME INTERESTING MIDRANGE DRUID

NOPE ITS FUCKING JADE DRUID

Out of the seven pack legendaries I've ever gotten, I just had my second duplicate. FeelsBadMan.

Sometimes this game just decides your opponent is going to win. For instance, my last game as Elemental Shaman was against a priest, whose Elise the Trailblazer unpacked an immediate Elise the Trailblazer which unpacked an immediate Elise the Trailblazer, while my Blazecallers, Kalimos, Fire Elementals, Aya Blackpaw, and a Servant of Kalimos hid at the bottom of my deck leaving me to draw exclusively dead for the entirety of the mid and late game. I lost horribly, obviously.

Is it just me or do everytime I play scizzors my opponent im matched with plays rock?

same for paper, etc.

What I hate about hearthstone.

• Broken expansion meta decks left to run on ladder while Blizzard sells expansion packs - too slow to nerf.
• Handful of common netdecks faced over and over and over again.
• No autosquelch.
• No penalty for rope timer abuse.
• Insufficient separation of standard, wild, and casual decks.
• Huge swings in game state due to random effects.
• Matchmaking appears suspiciously  deterministic (non-random).
• Uncraftable cards if you haven't purchased an adventure.
• Excessive dust penalty for dusting/crafting cards.
• Extreme draw sensitivity.

It's just a shitty game that seems good initially, but after a while... it's crap.

Never spend money on this shit until they address some of these issues.

How do I stop drawing like complete shit?

You know what's fun?  realizing control is completely dead because OTK bullshit exists!

In Australia Nick Xenophon is about to introduce a bill in parliament similar to China's that will force all on line games that have in game purchases featuring random drops to reveal all algorithms determined in the outcome of the random drops.  It was mainly for CS:GO but will cover all games such as Hearthstone etc. I cannot wait for Blizzard to decide to geo-block Australia rather than reveal their casino secrets

I liked this game a Ton back in the the old days where i could use my trick ass net deck mech mage and scrape a few wins against the ridiculously cancerous huntard. Remember that meta? That was a good meta. When i think back to every netdeck christmas tree paladin, wow!, i thought that was bad??? Check out how fucking broken rogue is WTF blizz. I am almost about to quit this game. The climb for legend seems nice, but this year i dont even feel bad i didnt reach it. 

On a low note, im pissed that cancer huntard somehow made it back into the meta. Honestly if you want to play that brainless shit then be my guest. Youll never see me play anymore original decks and have fun with this game blizzard. I am no longer giving you my fucking money for such a shit experience. 

I kid you not, and im sure anyone could agree, if you hand huntard to blind, old man joseph, he could literally drag his fingers from his side of the board to the enemy face and just fucking win if he did it enough. ITS SUCH A BRAINLESS DECK PLEASE PLEASE STOP. FOR FUCKSAKE TRY MAKING AN ORIGINAL DECK, STOP TRYING TO CLIMB FOR ONE GOD DAMN GAME AND HAVE FUN. MORE THAN THAT, LET OTHER PEOPLE HAVE FUN TOO! WOW WHAT A CONCEPT! YOU ARE THE REASON THIS FORUM HAS 1717 FUCKING PAGES FILLED WITH MOLTEN FUCKING LAVA!!!

WHAT THE FUCK

Like every time I play quest rogue, I get 3-5 aggro trash hunters in a row. So I use an elemental priest with tons of anti agro tools. I still fucking get rolled by a perfect draw, never run out of pressure hunter. The the fact that tundra rhino combos with the deathrattle minions is just stupid. So now I tech even more anti aggro. Now I get matched against a priest. Fucking great.

Made a deck designed specifically to beat all those pesky hunters from my previous post.

ON GOES THE TIN FOIL HAT FOR BOY IS LADDER SUDDENLY INFESTED WITH CONTROL
