    posted a message on The Best Way to Nerf Alexstrasza

    We have such limited information that it's really hard to come up with a valid idea.

    Thing is, we have no idea what the new set of cards will include.  

    That said, with the limited information, heal yourself for/to 15 seems to be a nice way to nerf the card basically into the ground.

    posted a message on There is no cancer deck

    I do not see the point of this thread other than subtle trolling.

    OP contradicts himself from post to post and then proceeds to make very very weak arguements (some contradictory to his point even) that are just begging for response.  

    Aggressive decks exist and will continue to exist. They are needed for the balance of the game. Some guy called the style "cancer" or "cancerous" and it became very popular. While the terminology is not PC, I see the point to it because I have faced many face hunters. (I can declare them the biggest "offenders")  These days many people call aggro (or generally OP ) decks cancerous likely because they feel helpless. 

    Some players will manage to get a good hand and have the intelligence/skill to counter these decks and some will not be as lucky. Winning through a huge comeback against an aggro deck can be extremely satisfying as a turn 5 lethal against you can be quite the opposite.

    To the folks that just say "lol l2p nub" or something similar, there is not a single "great" player with a 100% ratio so I declare them trolls as well. RNG is in this game so noone will win every game and be ranked high, ever.  

    Some trolls are becoming more and more subtle, soon they will take human form and adapt to our precautions, just like ads did in south park.

    posted a message on Dragon decks

    I would say that Cabal is not absolutely mandatory for dragon priest. (I use one without any cabals and I enjoy it)

    Voljin paired with holy nova or smite is quite useful, especially against minions like ysera. 

    I would strongly consider crafting voljin if going the priest route. 

    I did not try warrior or mage dragon decks but they do not feel as strong as priest due to dragon priest's strong early game and tempo.

    posted a message on Sylvanas or Justicar Trueheart in Midrange Paladin????

    Sylvanas will often draw out a silence against control matchups which will boost your tirion's value. 

    I didn't play with Justicar much but I guess both have their pros and cons.

    posted a message on Will you still complain about hunter after TCT?

    I am not sure I understand how the concept of "the meta" works. 

    Facehunter, sadly, works. It's effective and fast. 

    With new cards, people are assuming "the meta" will slow down but will it really?

    Only time will tell but I can guarantee you "aggro" decks will not die, ever.

    I dislike to play against facehunter decks but will not complain.

    posted a message on Popping my demon cherry. Thoughts?

    I have been playing with a demon deck for months and loving it. Some recommendations that may be useful for you:

     

    1. Mistress of pain: At 2 mana its stats (1-4) aren't great but 1) she can be buffed with demo spells (which you did not pick up) and 2)she heals you for her damage output. This will help against aggresive decks as well since I did not notice many low drops against aggro in your deck. (voidwalker can only last for so long)

    2. 2 voidcallers are a must in my opinion if you are running a demo deck.

    3. Darkbomb: Very useful spell against all opponents, I would heavily recommend it.

    4. Owl: I put one in every deck, would suggest the same

    posted a message on Who is throwing money at Blizzard?

    I have spent about 100-150 Euros on this game and I have no regrets. I will have about 4k gold saved up as well, all to be spent on packs as well.

    I have disposable income and have been playing this game since beta.

    Blizzard needs money to keep making games and I do not mind supporting them like this. (opening a ton of packs at once feel awesome too)

    I also consider the 100-150 Euros I have spent on HS to be a damn good expenditure considering how much I play it. 

    When you think about it, 150 Euros is about 3-4 games that you consume in 1 month or so? (roughly 1 week per game)

    I have played HS for much longer than that!

    posted a message on Nefarian vs Ragnaros is balanced

    From my limited experience I could summarize it as below:

    1. If nef gets vael + razorgore, it's practically game over. (much like aggro decks getting the perfect start)

    2. Unless nef gets early board control with big minions, rag should be able to come back at around his turn 8. Once his hero power become die insect (8 dmg to random enemy), nef's board won't be able to stand it for long. 

    I found both to be fun. Nefarian's random spells can really spice up the fight (can also make it frustrating to go against) and feels more rushy and rag feels like a control deck without some of its niches (direct removals in particular)

    posted a message on Pricing for New Hero Skins

    I usually like and enjoy blizzard games (purchased and played most of them).

    With hearthstone, I have purchased hundreds of packs with real money and I have no regrets.

    I see it as supporting the company for this game that I spend so much time playing. 

    Blizzard is not a non-profit organization.

    Regarding these skins, I will most likely not even blink and buy whichever skin I like.

    10 bucks for a hobby gimmick (that I hadn't spent money on for months) is fine.

    I do not play all classes religiously so for me 10 is most likely the ceiling (unless some of the heroes are mindblowing, which I doubt)

    posted a message on Your Predictions for the New Heroes!

    I would not buy the warlock hero if it's fizzlebang, "master summoner".  

    I also highly doubt they would give warlocks tichondrius or KJ, that'd be way too cool and most would not buy their next warlock "skin".

    I would have preferred Varian be the warrior hero but I guess they are choosing a different direction.

    You get a full refund if he gets nerfed so go ahead I'd say

    posted a message on I have 13k Dust - don't know which Golden Cards I should carft

    Assuming you play hunter most (from your profile) I assume you enjoy the class most.

    I would craft some of the staple cards of the deck you are particularly playing. (probably Animal Companion or Savannah Highmane )

    posted a message on Time for a new expansion?

    Since gvg and adventures had a unique theme to them, I am rather excited about the next expansion.

    They have done a deathrattle theme adventure, mech theme expansion, and dragon themed adventure. 

    I totally did not see the GVG theme coming, my guess for the next theme would be perhaps outland oriented? (draenei, demons, fel orcs etc.)

    posted a message on Time for a new expansion?

    The order of content for hs has been - adventure (naxx), expansion (gvg), adventure (brm).

    While it has been only a shortwhile since BRM came out, I believe the time has come for a new expansion.

    Naxx cards lasted so long because so many of the cards were great. This was not the case with BRM. 

    I expect the new expansion to come out in July, anyone else got any educated guesses?
