Hearthpwn

Hi all!  I just wanted to take a minute and celebrate completing 500 wins will all 9 classes.  I just finished Paladin using Quest Pally, which also lined up with my 7000th overall win.  I know many others have many more wins, but this is an exciting milestone for me, so I thought I'd share.

Anyone else hit an important HS milestone recently?  Any upcoming?

Cheers...

What's the point of having a thread like this every week?

 What’s the point of playing video games?

Magic Find team, 

Do you own InnKeeper?  If so, will you be updating and maintaining it?  If so, what is your estimated timeline?

Thanks—HS community

I still don’t have it. So much for June 3 release (at least on mobile)

I’ll stick around here to witness the end times, but I’m happy to already switch to OoC. I mostly visit on mobile, and hearthpwn consistently spams me with popups. 

Just like many others, this was my go-to site for Hearthstone news, release info, and fun in the forums. I visit the site probably too often, so it will be missed. I look forward to the next incarnation. Best of luck!!

You are right that based on pack value alone, it is not worth it. But, this is not surprising and has been known all along. The value is in the PvE content itself as you alluded to.  You must be willing to pay gold or money for the fun of the content, and the packs somewhat offset the cost of that fun. 

I realize there are trade offs, but I honestly miss the unique card rewards from the old adventures. Even if it was only 1 card per wing or something.  I am F2P, and it was easy enough to save gold for those adventures. 

As F2P, I will pay gold for the RoS PvE since I personally value the fun of it.  I do wish it was released earlier since I am waiting to craft until I get those packs, but I understand they are trying to spread out the content releases to keep interest/engagement up over time. 

I think this type of fatigue happens with any activity you really dive into. You clearly play a lot and have reached some of your goals (good collection).  I would suggest finding your own challenges in lieu of official achievements.  Try some crazy combo decks. Try Wild (though the collection would be an issue). Try you hand at deck building and look for some interesting new strategies and synergies (a la Chump on YouTube).  There is even a reddit thread (or is it here?) as I recall with frequent challenges to keep things interesting.  The other option, as with any activity, is to take a break and then come back later when things are feeling fresh.  Good luck. 

Chump has a YouTube series on his ramp Nomi druid. Looks fun. 

I am a pedant when it comes to correct word usage. 

"Replayability" was a 4 for me... Until I Met 'Aviator Bob' ... If you encounter this boss, Blizzard auto-fixes your replayability to 0, game keeps crashing at mulligan, your only option is to concede to him, back out, and stop playing Tavern Brawl for this week.

Game keeps crashing Vs Aviator Bob fight btw.

'' Dragonqueen Alexstrasza : Battlecry effect can no longer generate Dragonqueen Alexstrasza. ''

I wish Blizzard would do this to ALL other cards as well. Cards that generate cards should never generate themselves.

 I've been banging this drum for years now. Self-discovery should be a personal experience, not a possibility in Hearthstone.

You track MMR, don't you? Would be great to see similar stats filtered for 5k+ and 6k+ games.

Like there is no need to grind beyond rank 5 unless you are a try-hard "pro". 

Or you are someone who plays Hearthstone because you enjoy playing Hearthstone and not because you want to earn free content.

If they start doing adventures (expansion, adventure, Expansion) like they used to back in the early days and giving cardsets that way, I'd gladly buy into them.

The worst part of any CCG is when you have the moment of clarity where you realize all the time and money you dumped into it. You realize all you’ve missed out on.  The cold embrace of reality consumes you....

I hope you weren't expecting this one to be free. It is not.

how do you get legendaries except opening packs one at a time?

Blizzard has been very clear about their reason for not releasing the content simultaneously.

They want people to enjoy the main game for a while, not split their attention between PvP and PvE. They want as many people playing PvP as possible so the meta can settle and (my guess) problem cards can be identified and corrected if the meta can't correct them.

If a large chunk of players are grinding away at PvE, it takes longer for problems in PvP to come to light (and resolve themselves). That's just math.
