Hearthpwn

Nothing counters Druid, assume it. Resistance is futile.

The sooner you submit to our new druid overlords, the better. If you cant fight them, then join them. Druid will be the absolute best class in Standard and Wild starting this expansion (Druid already is a top class, it has always been actually).

So, dont fight, dont resist. Just accept they are faster (more draw), bigger (bigger threats), stronger (several win cons, ranging from token to combos and huge swings) and tougher (best armor generation and defensive tools in the game). There's nothing you can do but despair.

As a Warlock player (though i play all classes, i play mostly Warlock, Priest and Mage) i believe they are saving the Warlock reveals for the final stream. I dont know what to think of that, though. It scares me a little.

I definitely hope they are not trash, i wouldnt like to have an Ungoro era again bc Warlock was totally dead during that expansion. I hope what they have in reserve is good. I still feel the hype, though the new Druid cards have killed it off a bit, they are way, way too strong.

Thanks for the news, HearthPwn. And not only that, but thanks for all the coverage regarding card reveals, and also the excellent and intuitive layout of new cards that you prepare for every expansion, it's so nice to see them ordered by class and rarity in the guide.

This has always been and always will be my go to site regarding Hearthstone. The discussions are always kept civilized but interesting, and the articles are usually good reads and curious stuff. You can really get lost in this site for quite a long time, reading and learning about the game.

Again, thanks for the excellent work you do on a daily basis, guys. Oh and ofc, personally I appreciate very much that you take the effort to display the European time in every event/stream etc that takes place. 

Greetings from Spain, awesome work ;)

I actually spent 65 euros for the 10k amazon coins offer. With those coins, i bought the mega bundle+15 packs when expac launches.

I also have 7k gold already, estimating i'll have close to 8k gold when expac launches.

This means with 65 euros i bought Mecha J+cardback+golden legendary+95 packs. I'll buy about 55 packs with gold, spend 300 gold on a couple arena runs, and save the rest for next expac probably. Pretty good.

Solution----> Amazon Coins offer, 65€ for Megabundle its better than normal Bundle. 

 

 Also this

 Yeah well, so i set up Bluestacks, downloaded Amazon Appstore, and from there i downloaded Hearthstone app.

Then used the 65 euros offer. This was 12 hours ago.

As of now, i still dont have the coins, this is, i cant see the coin balance anywhere, and when i go into the Hearthstone app shop, it only show's "purchase with 1-click", it doesnt show to purchase with Amazon coins. The first time buying coins and i gotta admit it's way too clunky and troublesome, i'm already regretting it.

Btw i'm in Spain, and it shows the prices of Appstore and Hearthstone in Dollars, for some unknown reason. I mean wtf... yeah so much for saving with Amazon coins and all that ,but ppl really dont get involved bc it is actually such a bothersome chore. We'll see how i solve this bulls*** problem now...

EDIT: I contacted customer service in Amazon Spain. Apparently there was some problem with the Amazon marketplace, which was set to the US. They solved it, and now i can purchase stuff.

I bought the Mega Bundle and still have 2k amazon coins, which allow me to buy 15 more packs once the expac launches. This means i bought a total of 95 packs+golden legendary+cardback+Mecha J for 65 euros, which is imo an awesome deal :D

Personally i think Mecha J is the best looking hero the game has. Jaraxxus was already awesome, with specially badass emotes, and Mecha J simply raises the quality by being a cyborg.

Also, apparently a lot of people, really a lot find Mecha J impressive, considering the absurd amount of whine threads in the Hearthpwn and official HS forums regarding the impossibility to obtain our favorite demon in any other way.

But hey, to each his own. Guldan is just ok, and i never liked Nemsy. To me, Mecha J is in the top 3 best heroes together with Anduin because bming, and Uther because WELL MET!!!

P.S.: Valeera is the runner up because reasons :D

they dont,this still $1/pack as usual

people (like OP) just dislike the idea lock a skin behind paywall and we have 16 pages of shitstorm like now

 

they are, last time it was 50$ for 70 packs, and don't even start with that golden legendary, that is worth a lot less then 20 packs, plus it is a price increase for the best card-pack and that's clear. how can you deny that? 

 It's easy to deny it. Personally, i prefer the golden legendary, you wanna know why? Easy.

The WW preorder was 50 bucks and 70 packs. The Boomsday is 50 bucks for 50 packs plus a golden legendary. This is clear.

1- Once you open 50+ packs, the dust returns of packs start to be diminishing. This is, you start to get a higher frequency on duplicates and therefore packs tend to give the player 40 dust, not the regular 100+ dust.

2- A golden legendary is equal to 1600 dust. This means that you have to open 16 packs that average 100 dust each, something already hard enough considering that you have to average that number in just 20 packs, and you also have to dust each and every card in those packs.

3- A golden legendary is WAY rarer and harder to obtain than any other card, and with this offer you already have it. You ALREADY hit the jackpot! With the 20 packs, you'll get WAY less than those 1600 dust, and it would be extremely rare to get a golden legendary.

4- A golden legendary, if you dust it, means you can craft a legendary of your choice. The importance of this is paramount. I would 100 times prefer to choose the legendary i want to get, than praying to the rng gods so that i get a legendary in those 20 packs in the first place, and then pray again so that it is the legendary i want.

Whether a golden legendary is worse than 20 packs or not is arguable at best.

So, please think twice before typing next time, and give it a little thought. 

Scaphandre, your post is full of crap, and i'll tell you why: Value is subjective. If not enough people buy it, they wont do something like this again. However, if ppl find it worthy, they will buy it and that fact alone craps in your entire argument.

Also, you completely disregard the fact that 80 bucks are not the hero alone. "Oh the 50 bucks bundle already brings a golden leg so we can ignore that part" NO, we cant actually.

The truth is, you pay an extra 30 buck for 30 more packs ANd Jaraxxus, not for Jaraxxus alone, like you wanna make it seem. Are those packs lootboxes, are they full of filler crap, etc? Yes but that is another discussion altogether, a wider discussion that affects the whole game industry. However, 1 buck for 1 pack is the best they usually offer, and i'm aware the WW preorder was awesome, it's true, but you also gotta consider that the quality of cards in the WW was predominantly subpar.

Let's also remember that preorders used to be 50 packs and a cardback, that's all. Now, be it 50 or 80 packs, you also get the cardback, a golden legendary (or legendary of your choice) and in the mega bundle, also a hero skin. They are not doing any satanic, heretic awful sorcery, it's just business and they are selling COSMETIC stuff for money so that the mega bundle is more attractive.

I dont know if i will buy it or not, i never preorder until i see all the cards. But if i like what i see, im buying the mega bundle for sure, bc 1 pack for 1 euro is better than any other bundles they offer in the shop, and bc these preorders bring a similar value than that of the WW. Yes, you read well, similar value. In the WW you got 20 more packs, now you get a golden leg which means a legendary of YOUR CHOICE. Now, do you prefer 20 packs or a legendary of choice? Considering the diminishing returns of packs once you open 50+, i'd say i prefer the legendary.

So, you know, ffs, it's a cosmetic hero. Ppl throwing a tantrum bc either they cant afford it (apparently it's not your case, and to those ppl i say, find a job and earn the money like the rest of us do) or they can afford it but they believe it's too much, and yet they want the hero. To the latter i'd say, somebody has to pay otherwise the game shuts down, and the deal is still good compared to all the other deals this game has offered. Assume it and move on.

And btw, imb4 "anyone who disagrees with me is stupid", i couldnt give less of a ****. The promotion is happening, take it or leave it.

At least Americans aren't confiscating box cutters, monitoring all of the country's internet use and putting people in jail for mean words online.

 No. They monitor all of the WORLD's internet use, spy allies, put people in jail who are only trying to get a better future for their families (so much for the land of the free and the home of the brave), shooting people just bc they have a different skin color, exterminating kids in schools, having a healthcare system specially tailored for the rich, and a welfare state and quality of life well below most European countries.

But you still have the biggest guns and your president's impressive hair fringe, so hey everything's fine.

The compendiums are awesome, i always enjoy reading all the data contained in them, and often i get surprised at thing i didnt expect beforehand. Thanks for making them ;)

Hello guys, I come here to ask for advice, please. Thanks to this thread i've discovered this absurdly wonderful game, and i've already completed my first playthrough, although the end credits still did not appear, therefore the game is not finished.

I couldnt avoid spoiling it a bit, though not all of it, and i plan on playing it till the very end. However, i feel very dubious about what i've done.

In my first playthrough, Yuri immediately caught my attention. I cant help it but feel attached to her, she is mysterious and forces me towards her. And yet Monika is in my mind all the time.

I wrote the poems to please Yuri, and yet Monika was in my mind. The problem is, right when i thought i was close enough to Yuri, Sayori surprised me with her revelation, and i chose to tell her i love her. And yet, Monika was in my mind.

I chose to tell Sayori i love her, and she comitted suicide. It was shocking, but more shocking was to witness how a mysterious glitch happened, and i'm again at the very beginning, but Sayori has simply dissapeared. Still, Monika is in my mind all the time.

 After this, am i supposed to play again, making other choices? Did i make a mistake by pursuing Yuri but changing to Sayori at the end?

I somehow feel the game is not over. I somehow feel this is not even a game, but something else, something different.

Still, Monika is in my mind.

 Oh my boy, you are at the point where the game trully begins. Just hit the start a new game and let the rest of the story unfold. Anything else is a spoiler.

So till now Monika has gotted in total 80 votes while the rest have 0! Monika= best girl confirmed!

(Check Subcategory :P ) 

Hello there hearthpwwners! For those who have no idea what doki doki even is, do not google or watch youtube videos about because it's one of those games that the less you know about them, the more you enjoy playing them. Just go here:

https://ddlc.moe/

and download it. It's completely free and it's about only 4 hours. I enjoyed so much that i donated 25 €. This should make clear how much i liked it.

Now for those who have played it:

I had played the game 8 months ago but many friends of mine played it recently and we had heated debate about who is the superior waifu. So i wanted to continue this conversation with you.

So most of my friends chose Yuri for obvious reasons ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) with Natsuki being close second.

However i think Monika is not only the best Doki Waifu but one of the most well written characters ever. She is a struggler (my favorite type of character), a broken person who has no chance at all with the MC  because the entire world  (game), was programmed this way. So how does she react? Becomes self sentient, destroys the other waifus and claims you for her own only to be betrayed.

It's not the yandere aspect of her nor her tragic end that makes me love her so much. It's the Defiant, fight till the end and by any means attitude that i love. This is the reason I love guts from berserk and Shinobu (profile pic +signatures) and many other characters. I just find the ability to be able to constantly push forward while holding your broken self together by sheer will, more commendable than moral integrity both in fiction and real life.

So who is your favourite and why?

 Nice way of admitting that you are wrong while ignoring everything i've said. The best thing you can do when you dont know what to answer, is not answer at all. I guess you prefer to storm off before admitting that you were wrong, it definitely requires being mature to admit one's mistakes.

Thanks anyway.

 Actually I did not read your whole comment because of the language you have used. It was bothering enough to read only one paragraph, because you stuck the "forcing" thing too much and I was not forcing anyone for anything. just check my above posts.

I won't answer you never again even in any other thread. Because you are not trying to understand, you are just trying to win an argument like most of the crowd.

 And you aren't?

You argue that sending people to watch videos is "killing their brains" and we should "share our personal experience first, then only if they request it are we allowed to send the videos.

Everyone else either completely disagrees with you or agree to some degree but say you are rude/stubborn/close minded.

At this point you have to see you are starting to contradict yourself and both you and the others interpret the replies in a way that makes you/them right. This thread has no point and we all should just let it die. You won't change your opinion, the others won't and this is just making people angry.

If this truly matters to you, take a break, write some better arguments (preferably some that don't include the poisonous, killing of brains, gods analogy, or any sort of sentence that could be considered an insult, like the netdecking thing from your first post)

Your basic opinion (share your experience, don't default to youtube videos) is partially correct but your whole approach to this situation (this is what i think, you don't agree too bad) is wrong.

Also consider this: streams and youtube videos are someone's experience. Rather than someone telling you how they play a deck you can see them doing it.

Dude, please...

Quote from MProdigy >>

So many people on here forums think for some reason that this expansions cards for Druid is somehow a sign that Blizzard wants to HoF Malygos.  

Whats the logic? Malygos is one of the original legendary dragons in the game.  As such should never be considered for HoF, and same for Ysers, Alexstrasza, Deathwing, and Norzdormu.

Rather than HoF one of the coolest cards in the game, why don’t we urge the community to not ALL flock to a OTK Druid deck and play nothing else for 2-3 months. Let’s not give Blizzard forum after forum calling for HoF, and instead nerf newer cars if need no, or simply play a variety of decks.  I’m sure many players new and veteran love malygos. And would hate to see him go to HoF over stupid reasons.

 Ragnaros is even more iconic than the dragons.  He pretty much is the standard of how hearthstone cards worked.  Didn't save him for the HoF.

The point of rotation is Change.  This is the mode that forces you to get out of your comfort zone every few years and hunt for new ways to play the game.  There is not supposed to be some 'comfort pick' here.  That is what Wild is for.  Wild is where you go if you don't want to change, if you want to keep your deck or playstyle past the 2 year mark.

This is why cards like ice block was moved.  Every expansion, every rotation, when mage cards came out the question was always "How will this fit freeze mage." or "Will this revive Freeze mage?"  Sometimes the deck faded, but we always sought to bring it back. That is not how decks should work in Standard.  At some point the deck should die, or at worst, be remade completely into a new form (which is why 'zoo' stil exists, because what we deem as 'zoo' isn't anything like it was in 2017, or the version in 2016, or 2015, or so on and I wouldn't really argue if someone wanted to debate about this not being good enough).  

Honestly, Malygos decks haven't really changed in their game plan.  Find a way to cheat Mally out while holding a mass of spells, cast spells at face.  We haven't found a new way of using him. Just new cards that pull the same trick.  It's never been broken, but it hasn't really changed. That's exactly a HoF situation (as opposed to a nerf situation).  

That you always have to be careful of what spells you allow, what ramp you allow, and what cheat out effects you'll allow because "here comes the Mally deck!" is EXACTLY when you HoF a card.  

And yes, Malygos has been requested in the past, though not heavily since demand tends to come more from present activity and Maly hasn't been active for a while.  

But yes, this really isn't something to go on about seriously until next year.  Even IF Maly becomes a problem, blizzard made it clear they don't HoF between rotations.  So they'll nerf instead (probably not Maly but something else).

As a Warlock player (though i play all classes, i play mostly Warlock, Priest and Mage) i believe they are saving the Warlock reveals for the final stream. I dont know what to think of that, though. It scares me a little.

I definitely hope they are not trash, i wouldnt like to have an Ungoro era again bc Warlock was totally dead during that expansion. I hope what they have in reserve is good. I still feel the hype, though the new Druid cards have killed it off a bit, they are way, way too strong.

 It scares me tooo.

I think everyone will go Hoooooooly s**t after the reveal of those cards

By reading your post it seems you exaggerating how important mecha jaraxus is for player base "This is a popular icon in HS", "oh it's just cosmetics but this hero is soul of the warlock", but in the just like you said we can still play warlock even without mecha jaraxxus.

To be honest I never spent money to play hearthstone because i feel its expensive, but i know there is a lot of people who willing spend their money in this game. If i may say they are a loyal consumer for blizzard, people who willing to spend money for pre order packet. Rather think mecha jaraxxus is the hero that blizzard sell for $80 why dont you just think that mecha jaraxxus as a token of appreciation by blizzard to people who supporting this game. Because if all player like me we dont even get to play HS right now.

In business perspective it's just like you said that Jaraxxus is one of iconic character in HS. to further increasing the sale its fair for them to release limited time jaraxxus for fans to obtain. I guess this practice is commonly used in all business sector by limited their product it gives more values to it.

If you feel that their decision unfair for you for not rerelease the mecha jaraxxus it is because you only looking from your perspective, but from people who already buy it it's unfair for them if blizzard rerelease MJ. Maybe some of them work their ass of just to buy this mega bundle so they can show off MJ to their friend. If you think "they don't work their ass of they just pay it to get MJ" you never know how they collect their money. Maybe some people spend their yearly saving so they can buy it.

In the end this is just limited collectible item if you feel it is worth the price feel free to buy it and i think lot of people feel that it is worthed.

So your problem is what exactly? They're are just giving people extra cosmetics with the packs that have no infuence on the game mechanics. That's what all free 2 play games do, you want to look fancy? Wel then pay-up or shut-up. I see it as a cool addition to the packs, rewarding the players that support the game with some cool gadgets. I really hate how people just want everything for free, look around you that's not how the world works, grow up...

Shut ur whiny-ass up op. If ppl wanna waste extra 30 bux on cosmetic skin-- thats their prerogative; who are you to tell them not to buy it? Personally, i don't care much for it, so im happy pre-ordering the $50 bux bundle. So many of ur points are just subjective tripe, that u think are objective... but they're really not. I agree this game is expensive to continue playing, but that doesnt entitle you to tell ppl how to spend their money mate.
