I think it says a lot about the state of the meta when I actually feel salty after winning a game...

I was facing a quest hand warlock, and totally beat him on board, cleared his minions and got to the late game. He had nothing left in his hand, but just because of the fact that he takes no fatigue damage, and instead sends it to me... I was one turn away from losing. Another natural draw and life tap would have killed me.

This should never happen. And it's really a dumb thing to have to worry about.

 Same happened to me yesterday. I beat a Quest Warlock using Menagerie Warrior. I won because of the massive amount armor i got from the minions i played (Mo'arg Forgefiend, Kresh, Lord of Turtling, Scrap Golem). Yet, i was one tap away from losing. I gained over 40 armor and i still almost died. By the end, i felt a mix of satisfaction and frustration because i realized that one single bad draw would have killed me. It was sheer luck. I don't like the state of the game.

p.s. *off-topic*  tell me again why renew and apotheosis got nerfed???

 Renew was too much value for one low price, and allowing it to be generated by Wandmaker made it way, way too good. Releasing it at a Cost of 1 was just plain wrong.

Apotheosis was nerfed because of its interaction with Samuro, no other reason.

I assume you are wandering down this path because you think Quest Mage should not be allowed to outlast a fatigue-style Priest deck. The thing is, the recent versions of Quest Priest are perfectly capable of beating Mage long before fatigue, even if the Priest never finishes the quest. They just win with a lot of heals and good boards that the Mage can't deal with. This is much a much healthier win condition than dragging every game into fatigue.

 I really want to know what kind of Quest Priest you are talking about here. Sorry, but it simply seems wrong. How does Quest Priest beat a Quest Mage? Building a board is useless because the Mage just freezes the minions over and over again. You straight up help them finish their quest faster by playing minions. Healing? Like, are you serious here? Quest Mage can burn you down from 30 health easily after Arcanist Dawngrasp is played. Healing is completely worthless against them. So, i want to know about this magical quest priest list that somehow beats Mage. It doesn't sound realistic at all. 

If you don't play for an extended period of time you will lose your stars. I spent two months without playing the game. I always finished around Diamond 5 and had 9 stars each month. After those two months my stars dropped all the way to 4. I managed to recover only 2 last month so you are punished pretty harshly if you stop playing. 

I'm really shocked by the comments in this thread. Like, really people? You can't just put the card reveals aside for a moment to care about a problem that is causing deep suffering to people all over the world? Because this isn't some isolated problem or small incident. It happens everywhere on a daily basis. It's a problem in modern society. Yet, lots of people here seem to not just desire to disregard this in its entirety but they have to come here and post about it. They have to post how they don't care, how it doesn't affect them, how it is stealing their "dopamine dose" or some nonsense like that. Is this really the only dopamine source you have access to right now? You have nothing else to make you feel good in your free time? You really can't wait just a few days to see the cards? You really have to come here and act like a petty child who just had their favorite toy taken away for a few brief moments? If you don't care about what is happening then, at the very least, don't come online to post terrible messages because it's truly disgraceful to expose your own lack of empathy for other human beings. 

I replaced Whirliglider with Upgradeable Framebot for its good statline. And replaced Nine Lives (which i don't have) and Defender of Argus with Galvanizer. Those mana discounts helped filling the curve and doing some plays (like Venomizer + Missile Launcher) much earlier in some cases.

Climbed from rank 10 to 5 using this (with a few changes) today. Thanks for sharing!
