    I agree with smacfest. Also, it's still early in the season, you're probably facing a lot of previous legend players at rank 7 now, just keep at it!

    posted a message on Tablet players, what do you play it on? And how stable is it?

    I've gotten legend on an ipad 2 exclusively, and it works fine, though I have tested it on an ipad 3 and that was way smoother and faster. Also tried it on an old asus Transformer Pad recently, and it seemed to outperform my ipad 2. It does seem to me that Android tablets are a bit more efficient when it comes to hearthstone, not that I have much evidence to back it up.

    posted a message on Hearthstone Mobile Discussion - Ideas. Thoughts.

    I've been running it on my phone for a while now with the reddit tweak, and it was surprisingly playable. Browsing the collection would be very difficult without the stylus, but I can easily see how awesome the mobile version is going to be.

    Quote from Nabseeker »

    I think blizzard just want to make other kind of deck playble too.

    Control hunter, aggro warrior etc.

    Yeah, it's really that simple. 

    It's not an amazing card, but simply one that further encourages alternative warrior archetypes. Personally I believe bouncing blades is a bit underrated, and I'm happy to have an even better reason to play it.

    If you're a new player and made those decks by yourself, you're going to have a bright hearthstone future, I think!

    Hungry Crab and possibly Pit Lord too.

    posted a message on Is a minute and a half too long for the opening turns of the game?

    I've spent the whole 90 seconds several times in my first couple of turns. This is usually when I have two or more options that both have merit, and I'm trying to predict as many turns ahead as possible, and what my opponent might have. At higher ranks, this happens more, actually, because decks fit into rigid stereotypes that are easier to recognise.

    posted a message on Is Mal'ganis useful?

    In a demon deck, he's fantastic. I've recently stopped running void terrors and run him and jarraxus in my deck, and it's just ridiculous value when you get him on the board. I just had a game where he buffed my imps from implosion causing surprise lethal too. BGH is really annoying vs this kind of deck though, since it's usually the only target. 

    Definitely not a card I would dust.

    posted a message on Do you play the topdeck?

    Thanks for all the great responses, some real good input here. I don't think this is a very important aspect by itself, but coming from a poker background, I've made a habit of considering all the tiny variables that, together, can give you a slight edge.

    posted a message on Reynad vs. Xixo Grudge

    Thanks for the video, that was an interesting set of games. Not sure if Reynad could have done much differently, but xixo's decks seemed very fit to handle what he might have had expected Reynad to bring. Well deserved win.

    posted a message on Do you play the topdeck?

    I like to think that all of these tiny decisions affect your results in the long run. If my opponent just top decked a removal, I will find it less likely that he has another one in his hand.

    posted a message on Do you play the topdeck?

    Often you'll have a plan to play a certain card, and then you draw the other copy of it when it's your turn. Do you play this to enrage your opponent, or do you play the one you already had to show that you're not playing it out of luck of the draw? 

    Naturally, the best option is to play the top deck, as it might come across as less likely that you have another copy of that flamestrike or a keeper, and increase the chance of your opponent playing into it. You can possibly get an edge by putting your opponent on tilt if the top deck seems real lucky, too. 

    Despite all this, I always play the other copy, I feel a bit like an asshole if I don't. How about you?

    posted a message on De Bolvar Fordragon for a Sneed's Old Shredder?

    I'd do it. A lot of legendaries may end up with nice niche uses, but I can't possibly see how that would be true for Bolvar. Unless we get a "summon seven minions and kill them" card. 

    Personally I love Troggzor, I think he's extremely underrated since everybody play Dr Boom, and value him around the same as Sneeds, since they both benefit from being BGH-proof. But most people will tell you Sneeds is a higher priority.

    posted a message on Cernarius or Sneeds Ol' Shredder?

    In general, cenarius should be the priority if you're a druid player. Sneeds is good too, and also useful in warrior, priest and paladin, so that should be your consideration. Both have the current upside of being BGH-proof, so they're both great in this meta.
