Hey people,

Recently, my girlfriend got into Hearthstone which was probably inevitable seeing how into it I've been for quite long. She started playing with her girlfriends, practicing and whatnot. I made a couple of decks for her (as she did not really want to play in my account so early on as I already have everything and she thinks she'd be missing half the fun collecting, oh if she only knew). I helped her through the initial tutorial and then I helped her grasp some of the main mechanics etc.

After a couple of days, she, you know, ranked up a little bit to like rank 23-22 and I would help her make some plays from time to time. Anyway, she decided to move to casual for a couple of weeks to really understand the different archetypes, level up a couple of heroes etc.

I can't help but feel so bad when I watch her play, wanting to have genuine fun, instead encountering non-stop tier 1-2 decks in casual. When that happens I immediately try to help her because those never legend plebs are bming on top of it all and we do steal some games with her basic decks, but I feel really bad and depressed when I see that.

What the hell? Why do people feel the need to justify their losses in ranked by playing casual, with tier 1 decks? This is ********. Btw, this is the experience everyone has when they start out. This is just NOT right and I don't care what anyone says. We're talking about people who want to have fun and learn the game, and this is what they get? Point me to the salt thread all you want, but I'm just trying to raise some awareness here. This is someone I love, and yes, it is just a game, but it so happens to be my favorite and main game. This is just sad.

 Or perhaps people just don't have the time to play tons of games a day and still want to finish their daily quests, so when I want to finish "Win 5 games as Mage/Warlock/Whatever" and I don't have the time for much more than 5 games, I will play whatever ranked deck I'm currently playing for that class in casual as it's more likely that I will fast. Especially when I'm already at 3 quests. Also I won't switch to a completely new deck without having it played a few times in casual just to get a feel for it. And I like to switch decks often as I easily get bored of playing the same archetype over and over.

Also I won't start a ranked or arena game when I'm not 100% sure I can finish it. Which often happens when waiting for the bus or playing during lunch break at work.

But as you don't care anyway, keep throwing your little insults around, I also don't care to change. There is no rule what I'm allowed to play in casual.

This is matchmakings job anyway

People playing tier 1 decks in casual and even casual wild need to neck themselves. "Deck testing" isn't an excuse

 why?

 becuase if are crafting a T1 deck and need CASUAL to learn you are a absolute loser of a person and player.  If you can’t play a T1 deck at ranks 20-15, quit and find a new game.  If you’re worried that much about stars, they must come far and few between.

 

Why are you a absolute loser of a person and a player, if you practice a deck before playing it on ladder?

If you never playede the deck before, I can’t see anything wrong with testing it in casual.

Blizzard made a game with a certain ruleset. Everybody playes within that ruleset, so if people playing good decks in casual makes you mad, you should perhaps turn it towards Blizzard in a constructive way.

 Why in the world would you practice in casual? Practice the deck in ranked. There is no such thing as practicing a tier 1 deck in casual. You're not really doing anything.

2 golden commons

35 Rares (3 golden)

7 Epic (1 golden)

2 Legendarys (Bloodreaver Guldan & The mage quest)

Pretty happy with the Legendarys. New decks for me to play.

This looks super interesting and fun, and credit to you for writing such a thorough guide. I especially like that you have found a way to make Tinkmaste overspark relevant. Allways saw it as a RGN card, but there is logic to the way you use of him.

Unfortunately I am missing to many cards (I think) to play the deck like it was meent to be played. (Missing: Pyros, Tinkmaster Overspark, Zola the Gorgon, Alexstrasza )

Unfortunately But perhaps I will craft Zola and Alex some time and try it out. 

Anyways enjoyed reading about the deck. Good luck!

Last season I played a Burn mage deck in wild (got to rank 10 easy, then 50/50 WR)

 So how far did you climb after you got to rank 10?

 I stayed at rank 10. Played perhaps like 10 games or so, but did not get anywhere. Did not try that hard, but still it got a lot harder.

 Yeah okay 10 games are not enough to climb with a 50 % win rate :) Very true. Better luck this month!

 Thanks, let me know if you find a god straight forward wild deck to climb with.

I have played Wild Reno (Razakus) Priest to rank 4 each season for the last 5 months. I think it’s very solid!

Today when i locked in i got the message: "2 packs granted".

Anyone else got it?

Anyone know why you get two packs (K&C)?

I am happy I got them, but am curios why.
