    Week one probably around 60, then I'll just keep spending the gold and opening them.

    Druid gets **** like Ultimate Infestation and a load of cards to combo with it and Hunter gets this? You gotta be freaking kidding me. Blizzard is better off just erasing the class from the game, this is a joke.

    The Internet. I'd like to see a Hearthstone environment where every single player built his own deck. That would be amusing and fun. Now everybody plays the same deck and it's totally predictable three months after the release of an expansion.

    I think card strength is really going up, to the point it's getting over the top. Deal 5 damage, draw 5 cards and gain 5 armor, that kind of crap. Some cards are just far too powerful.

    posted a message on Worst designed card ever

    Jade Idol, Ultimate Infestation, Spreading Plague, Ice Block (not the card itself, but the possibility of playing it more than twice in a game through discover mechanics).

    You have play a 4/6 for 6 hurting your deck in the process. For Ultimate Infestation you gotta kill the Druid before he casts it; Spreading Plague requires you to save resources and hold back, further improving your opponent's chances. And Ice Block, like I said, is alright - the problem is when you have to kill a dude 4 times in a game before he kills you. That's quite difficult.

    Priest is way more annoying. Any iteration of it, really.

    It's so annoying to play vs Priest. You have to play around so many things that you end up playing almost nothing.

    posted a message on This is bizarre, how does big priest even function?

    I play Zoo Warlock and Big Priest too. I have way more games as a Big Priest and I can tell you that I've easily drawn Keleseth way more often than Barnes. I'm not only talking about my opening hand but also during the game. 

    I've also lost count of the number of times Shadow Essence makes a 5/5 Barnes.

    posted a message on Top 5 Problematic Hearthstone cards

    Skulking Geist is a counter to Jade Idol, but more often than not, it doesn't have a place in most decks. The only decks that makes good use of it are Control Warlock and Control Mage, yet playing it doesn't guarantee you will win the game, as usually the Jades have already gotten out of control by the time you get to play the Geist. That being said, you will probably run only one in your deck and it's useless against all other decks, except Silence Priest.

    Jade Idol is rotating out, but yes, it is a toxic and irritating card. Personally I'll be very happy once Jade Druid becomes a Wild deck.

    Quote from moonsorrow999 >>

    It's funny because a year ago, people loved priest because it was never used. Its strategy was to basically slam deathrattles, entomb your most powerful cards and slam a great big N'zoth to kill you, now don't get me wrong, I loved priest but now that it's tier 1 people go mad. I think the current archetype could do with being toned down at the end of the expansion, but Priest is easily killable and it's not horribly oppresive. People just play the match up poorly in my opinion and play around too much, since Highlanders can only run one copy of each. I win the majority of my games vs priest in unfavourable match ups just because I play aggressively and kill them before they kill me.

     This. A hundred times. Playing around means that he will have all necessary answers when you play your minions. 
    The easiest way to beat a Priest is by pressuring them to the point that they will be reluctant to follow their own game plan in order to survive. I play a hybrid version of Jade Druid which focuses a lot on early game minions to take control of the board and uses the Jade package for value.
    I provide them with so many threats to deal with that they usually run out of gas or lose card advantage. I get the occasional loss but I'm currently 10-2 vs Priests with this deck. 
    You also can't afford the game to go too long even as Jade because they can burst you down really quickly with Velen + Mind Blast + Circle of Healing or Holy Smite.
