    MtG Duels is looking so good right now...

     Is it any good? Gonna DL it now. 
    This pirate meta forced me to give Shadowverse a try but it got old fast
     I'm a big MtG fan, so my opinion is somewhat biased.
    I don't compare it to Hearthstone (any more - I did a little back when HS was in Beta), since they have become very disparate. 
    But it is getting about as close to the physical game as it could (within reason). As is the case with MtG, it has a huge backdrop of mechanics and sets to learn / adjust to. 
    In particular though, there aren't basically 2 deck archetypes that jizzle over everything else and run off hand in hand laughing with glee. Ahem! :-P

    STB nerf makes him unplayable. 
    It sucks being right all the time. XD

    Looks like Warrior is no longer going to hit stuff very hard at all. ^_^

    In the meantime, Miracle Jade Cancer Druid is spewing over everything in sight! 
    Good job Blizzard. 

    What are you smoking over there?

    If you can't figure out for yourself if a deck is good or bad, it doesn't matter from which site you netdeck. This site is for Players who actually want to have fun sharing unusual ideas and fun decks.

    Also, if you're such a pro and so much better than everyone else, except for the actual pros, why do you even bother netdecking? Following your logic you should be at least easy 100 legend every season.

    Plus, way to go shitposting a community site on the actual site and offending all of their thousands of users.

    Without realizing it, you illustrated perfectly well what's wrong with these forums: nonsensical agressivity.
     Not really - the guy was simply expressing basic tribalism in it's purest form. The OP has come onto a community forum with no express purpose other than to insult the people who frequent it (ironically that nw includes himself) and also try to advertise a bunch of noob deck sites in the process.
    I would suggest this was pure troll-bait, but there you go. In fairness, WakingLupus' response was pretty tame and the OP has been lucky not to receive anything more substantially aggressive.
    However, if you think that WL's post was aggressive, it's probably best to avoid places like the official Blizzard forums or Reddit - now those contain some salty kids! XD

    Every month its the same - legend decks sitting at Rank 20.

    Every twat and his mum playing Toxic Crusader Pirate and Cancer Jade. 

    So sick of the messed up ranking system in this game. Makes the first week of every month completely unplayable! 

    SORT OUT YOUR DESIGN TEAM BLIZZARD, FFS!!!!!

     Couldn't tell you for definite, but looking at the specs etc for the Cubot, it looks like your standard Android phone, so I imagine it should run HS fine?
    Don't take that as stone, though! ;-)

    This looks like the only new artwork.

    If I remember correctly the Swamp Ooze and the Fen creeper are creatures found in Un'Goro. :)

    That's the artwork for a very old card that was replaced by Savannah Highmane in June 2013
     And again, before that : 
    It's the artwork from the REEEEEEEALLY old Taz-Dingo card! :-)
    Man, that card was awesome! :-)
    Image result for taz'dingo wow tcg
    They replaced him in Hearthstone with a pansy 3/5 Taunt. :-(

    STB is problematic, but the proosed nerf is completely wrong. Instead of nerfing the ATK bonus, they stupidly decided to rever him to 1 health, making him almost completely unplayable - a waste of mana against any Mage or Warlock or Warrior!
    I hate to ever imply that the designers are making mistakes, but when they make decisions like this one, it makes it hard to defend them. :-(
     Dude, many people think this was a good nerf. They wanted to make it easier to kill.
    That's as may be, but making it susceptible to a 1-dmg ping was overkill. They made it so easy to kill now that it is unplayable. That's the point. It's an over-nerf.
    Reducing the atk wouldn't help. It's okay if you think that was a mistake, but please refrain from calling it a "stupid mistake" and wait until the nerf is live. Then we can see if it was a mistake.
    I stand by what I said. It is an absolute prime example of a "knee-jerk nerf", spurred on by the over-vocal minority. It wasn't well though out at all, especially when compared to Trogg and Mana Wyrm. 
    A 1 health minion isn't a waste of mana against a mage. You spend 1 mana and 1 card to force him next turn to spend 2 mana and play nothing to kill it. 
    Against a mage, it's a prime waste of mana. (assuming you spent the mana to play him from hand of course)
    Mages have so many 1-dmg pings and AoEs, at best you may get 1 or 2 damage from Patches before he's splatted. The Hero Power for a mage is last resort if she has nothing else (which is reaaaaally unlikely). No loss of tempo or problem.
    It's a 1/1 that is scary enough to force a mage to ping it. Against warlock and warrior, they have to use cards to remove it so it's not a waste either. Please don't post non-sense like this.
     I'm sorry, but it's your reply that has been utter nonsense. I can only assume you don't know the full extent of the cards available to these 3 classes - Warriors don't even need to play a spell to wipe out 1-health minions, for crying out loud. 
    Please don't post about stuff you don't understand.

    stb isn't that bad IMO. I would say it's fine even.

    It's that patches shit that I hate.

    stb is just a cogmaster.

     I disagree that Patches is anything of a problem. Its a simple Boar with an auto-play mechanic. Hardly broken and hella-easy to deal with in most match ups (barring maybe Paladin)
