If playing a priest deck, if the opponent silences your Elwynn boars before they die, they still seem to count towards the condition for getting the 15/3 weapon. How does this make sense? Also, the priest spell that resurrects deathrattle minons also raises minions who were silenced and then killed. This also doesn’t appear to make sense; it seems like an arbitrary decision that goes against what you’d expect based on the rest of the rules of the game.

Elwynn boars deathrattle states that you will get the Sword of a Thousand Truths if you had 7 boars die that game. So if you silence them and kill them, they still die and correctly increase the number of boars that died. 

If you silence the last boar after 7 boars died and kill it, then yes - Sword condition will not trigger.

Dust is not money. Dust is a virtual commodity. If I find a crate of Cheetos in a ditch, I can try to track down who left them there and try to return them, but I am also within my rights to eat them since they appear to have been abandoned.

However, these particular Cheetos have a tracking device in every bag, and the people who made the Cheetos know exactly where they are at all times. They also have the ability to teleport the Cheetos back to the warehouse -- even if you have already eaten them. They will pull the sustenance from the cells of your body, leaving you hungrier than you've ever been in your life.

 So you and your neighbours mistakenly received shipments of tens of thousands of Cheetos bags, you managed to gobble it all up in record time, and you are now angry because shipment company appeared the next day and want their 100 000 Cheetos bags back. 

And your argument is "ChEeEEtos iS noT MoNeY". 

Also according to US law: 
"At common law, a person who found lost personal property could keep it until and unless the original owner comes forward. This rule applied to people who discovered lost property in public areas, as well as to people who discovered lost property on their property.". 

So even if you did find crate of Cheetos, you are NOT within your rights to eat them like there is no tomorrow.

You’re right, why would anyone in their right mind want to get use and value out of something they *thought* they were being given? And why would anyone be upset when that gift was subsequently revoked?

Do you happen to work for Blizzard’s PR team? 🙄 

 

You should feel shame for taking what is not yours!

And no, I don't work for Blizzard, I have dignity! Fortunately, I have an inner voice that tells me what is right and what is wrong, something that guides me through this valley of darkness full of temptations and excesses called life. If you are going to continue this conversation, remember I have the moral high ground here. ;)

 Why would I be ashamed to use something that was given to me, even if it was given on accident?

Because it is illegal (at least in the US):

"

WHAT DO YOU DO IF YOU UNEXPECTEDLY FIND EXTRA MONEY IN YOUR ACCOUNT?

If you find yourself with an unexpected financial windfall in the form of a deposit you didn't make, you may be wondering if you are entitled to keep the money. This is the time when all of your friends suddenly become armchair lawyers, giving you all sorts of differing advice. Unfortunately, the money isn't yours unless you made the deposit or if someone else made the deposit on your behalf.

The only time you can keep money that is deposited into your account is when the deposit was intended to be made into your account. So, if the deposit was a mistake, you can't keep the money. It's as simple as that.

...

WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU USE MONEY THAT WASN'T YOURS?

Cases abound of people who have received erroneous deposits and then spent some, most or all the money and found themselves facing criminal charges. People did various things with the money, from moving it to other accounts to gain interest, investing it, buying cars, helping relatives with bills, or giving to charity. Criminal charges varied by state, but basically amounted to theft of property lost by mistake and receiving stolen property, even in cases where the money went for good or noble causes.

Furthermore, because Mercenaries is primarily a PvE game (a fact that everyone seems unable to grasp)

Go away with your annoyingly accurate facts!

If it is rigged EVERY player had the same issues. 

 No, certain accounts are flagged to be rigged. Accounts that haven't spent any money at all are highly likely to be flagged so you go on long losing streaks and therefore buy packs. This has been proven by a a few people saying this is what they think happens. Blizzard wants to keep people at silver and gold ranks because this will increase their profits. 

I'm lucky in that my account hasn't been flagged but I did play against 3 rogues in a row the other day, so my time in the sun may be coming to an end. I can't see how that is possible, 3 games against the same class, the odds are just way, way off based on my feelings and therefore I am justified in asserting that it's rigged because Blizzard are greedy. 

Lol, this is the dumbest comment I’ve read here in a long time. How do you know this? And how can you prove it? You’re obviously a tin foil hat kind of guy. 

And to the discusion: it is possible, tho unlikely, to get the same outcome 20 times in a row. And to be able to prove any of this, you cant say its rigged because it happend 19 out of 20 times. Do you know how many games you would have to play to say that any of this is statisticly or mathematicly significant? An insane amount of games..

I also feel Felmaw too often hits face, but I dont think its rigged because of it.

 Besides complaining is everywhere on the net, if Apple, Microsoft and other big companies had so many complains about their products as Blizzards Hearthstone has, it would be a legendary problem with the CEO do the explaining fearing his position. 

Wow, people sure does not complain that much about Apple and Microsoft as they do about Hearthstone, at least not in this dimension.
In the plane of existence I am coming from, it is the other way around, I assure you.

My favorite CCG is Gwent and even though it's considered less popular than others, statistics show that it actually has more active players than Hearthstone. 

 Huh?

Gwent has 1400 players online on average. Hearthstone has around 200 000 players online. 

 Well, I was wrong then, but it doesn't really change my point. Looking for an opponent still takes less time in Gwent than it does in HS for some reason. But I genuinely thought the statistics I remembered were correct, so it seems like I was mistaken. Still, couldn't care less about the player count anyway :P

Edit: Found the info I remembered, so either this person is bullshitting, or the other player count is using some different criteria. Here is the link: https://forums.cdprojektred.com/index.php?threads/how-many-people-play-gwent.10092771/

That's 2k gold less I'll have come the rotation.

 So you want to hoard gold and have nothing new or extra to spend it on? What's the point of the gold then?
