I am sure this is not the first thread on the subject, but I am talking about the interaction with spell damage. When you have 1 spell damage on board and you Fandral+Wrath it does 5 damage instead of 6 ((3+1)+(1+1)). Maybe Brode or Blizzard has commented as to whether this is intended but it just seems to me that the way Fandral is worded this is an inconsistency. It doesn't change wrath into a new 4 damage draw a card spell, it does both effects, first 3 damage then 1 and draw a card. It is fine this is in one animation but in my opinion there are two spells being cast so the spell damage should apply to both ends.

RagingAlphaWalrus posted a message on WarriorstonePosted in: General Discussionwhats the problem? this class actually requires skill (except for aggro/pirate) or do you want to see more braindead shamans?
Personally, I find control warrior to be the most brain dead deck out there. Armor armor armor. Fatigue out your opponent. Other flavors of warrior require skill, but not that. -

Asuryan posted a message on The uninspired generation?Posted in: General Discussion1. With hundrets of cards available all play the same decks.
With 4 limbs and tons of fun ways to move around (somersaults, handstands, cartwheels, silly walks, etc), why is it that everyone walks around on 2 legs? It's so unoriginal! I don't even remember the last time I saw someone walking around on 1 leg and 1 arm. -

iandakar posted a message on The uninspired generation?Posted in: General DiscussionHearthstone has now more than 50 million registered users (accounts). So it's kinda reflecting our society right? (At least the western society) I mean that one could say how you behave ingame could be a mirror of your real world character.
That's not accurate. It's reflecting one aspect of yourself, but not all. Just like how the way you act at work is NOT the way you act at home, which is NOT the way you act with drinking buddies, which is NOT how you act around children. It's not a case of people 'faking' roles and hiding 'their true selves'. It's people actually being complex creatures with different traits and mentalities. Thus what you see is just ONE aspect of the HS community.
Also note that we'er less than .01% of society. Gaming is still a very niche hobby and HS is VERY niche out of a niche hobby. We're not even representative of the internet community, nevermind society as a whole. What you're doing is taking very easy to access data (the few people you see while casually playing a game you like) to make a broadbased complex finding. That's a very dangerous and inaccurate bias.
See: availability heuristic for more info.
So what does this tell us if people in hearthstone ....
1. With hundrets of cards available all play the same decks.
See: Technology adoption cycle
Too long, didn't click? Basically for any fad only a VERY small portion of any population actually innovate. Innovation requires a number of traits including having a lot of resources (time, money) and a risk-approving mentality. In other words, they have to be willing to sink a lot of time/money into a card game, take it seriously, but be willing to risk failing and losing A LOT for little return.
Most aren't willing to do that. That includes most of the folks that complain about variety as, instead of accepting that most of their pursuits will fail and, thus, they'll lose... a lot... they come here to complain about how bad a situation they have and how everyone else is 'taking the easy route instead of struggling over their work like they do'.
The TRUE innovators accept the risk and are willing to put up with it all for the glory of What's Out There. Those aren't the folks complaining in hearthpwn. Those are the folks who end up MAKING the decks on tempostorm. Innovators don't complain all day about Tempo Warrior. They MADE Tempo warrior while everyone was busy with C'thun decks and aggro shaman. While everyone fussed about how Hunter was worthless, they made the new Midrange Hunter work.
Innovators are rare. THey always are. It's natural and normal.
The rest of us take the easier route and either follow in their footsteps or pretend we are them while demanding the world make innovation easy.
2. Try to bm when ever they can.Negative actions are pretty normal when you feel 'safe'. People drive more recklessly the more they feel that they don't have to worry, and people act less properly towards their better man when they think they aren't held back by the regular rules of society. It's true but a very old and known element of our lives, and the basis of stories where That Nice Neighborhood Has a Shady Secret.
Be happy you learned that while being thrown pre-made texts on the screen. I learned it by people using hacks to hunt and kill me in Diablo 1. Others learned it IRL by certain members of their family.
3. Found a way to use 6 simple emotes to stress their opponents
During the early days of the internet, we discovered that surviving here meant having a rough skin to deal with griefers. Sadly, I don't think we were good at teaching newer generations that fact.
Both elements are true. People are horrible when they really shouldn't be. THey also seem to be VERY sensitive when they shouldn't be. A LOT of folks dish out negativity but can't take it.
4. Value wins more than fun
"YOUR FUN IS WRONG!".
Or to be more constructive: see the Timmy/Johnny/Spike articles
To long, didn't click: People view 'fun' differently. Some people love competition and being king of the hill. Some prefer developing new things and doing things others haven't. Others prefer seeing incredible experiences.
Some have fun winning with Tempo Warrior. Some have fun building that Pirate Priest deck. Some have fun praising yogg.
So no, people aren't prefering winning over fun because to them winning IS fun. They are playing the game they way they like to. Are you?
5. Made twitch chat a place that drops your I.Q. to below 50 instantly.
Either you forgot about AOL chat, main IRC rooms, and the global chat of any big time MMO, or you must be new to the internet.
Yes, the second you bring about 10k people into any format that isn't heavily moderated, things get stupid fast. The only reason why we have any form or decent conversation here is because we're one of the lesser popular gathering places (compared to the main forums and reddit) in a very niche card game and the moderators are VERY busy. Note that once they started cracking down on the Twitch hearthstone chat things get normal again.
Think about it. Or don't.
When you think about things, don't half it. That leads to knowing just enough to be dangerous. Either think it all the way through and study about sociology and psycology, as well as biases and heuristics, or just DON'T think about it and just enjoy the game.Thinking just enough to notice it but not enough to actually find out what's happening leaves you with a very biased, inaccurate, and dangerous set of viewpoints. -

brucemk posted a message on Does anybody feel like the ladder became anti-Shaman lately ?Posted in: ShamanThat's what meta is. People see deck X is dominant, so they play deck Y to counter it. Then, when Y is dominating, people bring in deck Z to counter that.

robert_fanr posted a message on Clockwork Card Dealer - Tavern Brawl #56Posted in: Tavern BrawlThis brawl is completely unfair for people with small card collection . There is no fun in being wrecked by OP wild cards .
Luckily standard aggro shaman did the trick once for me to get the free pack but I'm not going to play this brawl again .
