    It can only do that by filling your deck with weak cards.

    The fact that you now can't casually drop it on 3 and go off on 4 is a big deal.

    I don't know about other games, but MtG limited is ten times worse than HS

    It's Priest. It's obviously Priest.

    The game is either extremely unfun for the Priest player who didn't draw well, or It's torture for the opponent, who spends 30 minutes of nothing only to die of old age.

    Imagine if it was possible to add the token a card creates to the page that is dedicated to that card. Maybe in the future.

    But wait! I just remembered that this used to be the case in THIS SITE a long time ago, under different management.

    Are you actively trying to send us to other sites?

    posted a message on BOBBY IS OUT! (soon)

    The news since yesterday is that the acquisition of Activision-Blizzard-King by Microsoft is a done deal!

    The even bigger news, is that instead of being burdened with Bobby Kotick, the living scourge of gaming, for another year as was originally hinted, he was "offered to stay until the end of 2023".

    When 2024 comes we will have another reason to celebrate!

    Quote from Mads2Chazz >>

    Very true.

    Here are some of the ways you'll know if you play a bot.

    They usually appear in patterns, so first you might see a standard deck (well known decklist / cards) with some odd ones in between.

    This opponent might be really good or really bad depending on your ranking / winrate.

    They will often play very fast and end their turns in almost an instant when they spend their mana. They even coin, do nothing from time to time.

    They also use alot of the card backs released since Revendreth / March of the LK, and that includes the new Lich King ones (most popular for bots) as well as Hakkar and others, again depending on your rank / WR.

     

    In about 3 weeks I think I've played against real people 10% of the time, the rest have been bots.

    If you wanna test this I recommend you do it late at night. It's absolutely insane how we've gone from 6-7 min queues in Duels to now having an opponent almost instantly or within 30 sec.

    Nobody is playing this game, and I suspect Blizzard have been doing Bots ever since it's inception. Inflates numbers, looks good for investors. Twitter did the same.

     Please tell me you're joking.

    "Sometimes they're good, sometimes they're bad, sometimes they play meta, sometimes off-meta, they use various cardbacks, they end their turns..."

    Really?

    Would you prefer it if you had 10-15 minute queues?

    Would you prefer it if we went back to the times when new players were facing opponents with refined meta decks, because there was noone else playing at beginner ranks?

    Your matched opponents depend on your internal MMR.

    Since you're playing a lot of Wild, your internal MMR is similar to the highest rank you achieve each month, hence, you meet no bots there. However, because you haven't played Standard in a long time, your Standard MMR is the lowest possible, which is why you meet a ton of bots. If you win a few games, you'll meet fewer, then none.

    posted a message on 27.4.1 Patch Notes - 2 Anomalies Banned, Battlegrounds Adjustments & Bug Fixes

    Whoever designed the "Twist Reality" anomaly in the first place should be moved to the development of a different game, since they obviously don't play hearthstone at all.

    Discard Lock, Control Warrior and Freeze Mage are quite strong if you don't like playing Jade or C'thun. Control Paladin and aggro/deathrattle Hunter are also playable.

    Honestly, the only card i despise right now is Jade Telegram.
