    I doubt they'd re-release pre-order exclusive card backs since people paid for them (with the bundle)

     They can re-release them, actually. Just have to attach an actual price to it (and can't be brought with gold).

    In fact, I am sure they will do that at some point. Same with any prerelease bundle avatars.

    If they do, I am cool with it. All I care about is if I have it. For example, I am not concerned with Madam Lazul or The Thunder King becoming more accessible to other players.

    posted a message on WILD Deck Spotlight: Pain Warlock - Top 150 Legend

    I went against this deck once yesterday in Wild and got ran over like trash. Darkglare came out on Turn 3 and then 2 more minions later had a full board afterwards with a Molten Giant. Next turn, another full board with a Flesh Giant (or vice versa).

    I played as though it was another Mechathun Warlock deck since I can't beat that deck without some quick aggression and was surprised by the new build. I will definitely keep an eye out for this going forward.

    If you understand that the game is no longer competitive, and the HS esports scene is a complete joke, you can still enjoy the game for the casino cluster f*ck it has become. 

    If, instead, you think HS is about skill, and you aspire to be a pro, you will learn to hate it. 

     That's basically me except I knew that from the beginning. In fact, that was the biggest reason why I am willing to spend money on Hearthstone because games can be a huge casino mess at times. Frankly, I love it.

    Yeah, it is very frustrating not to make it to Legend once during my 4-5 years of playing. Got to Rank 1 with 3 stars with the old ranking system and then got to Diamond 3 with this system but never could finish the final push to Legend and yet I still enjoy the game because of the RNG along with some level of skill to go with it. I can make solid logical plays to put myself in the best position and then use my RNG cards for the game states that I have the highest chance of pulling ahead (or getting back in the game, depending on where I stand).

    If you thought Hearthstone is basically another version of Magic the Gathering (where the only RNG you have to deal with, for the most part, is what cards you draw or mill throughout the game), you are definitely playing the wrong game.

    posted a message on Trial By Felfire Solo Adventure Challenges - Launch Today!

    When I beat the first 3 bosses on the first attempt using Galakrond Highlander Shaman (I had to get Kazzak to fatigue to finally beat him), I was thinking that this may be a little bit too easy until I got destroyed on the 4th boss.

    And I did it just to complete the 3-pack quest.

    If the reason why this is relatively easy is because we can't use Wild cards, I can see the complaints however, like I have noticed, the difficulty is much lower than previous Heroic Adventure modes so I can see Blizzard's side to this too. Besides, it is not like there is a ton of players with extensive Wild collections and the "reward" is not that great in the end.

    I actually like it this way. Makes it as available to players as possible but keep it somewhat challenging.

    Anyone else seem to get 1/2 games away from reaching Diamond 5 only then to lose every bloody game!!

    Happened twice to me this week alone. Won 5 in a row last night and one more win would have take me to Diamond 5 but noooo I lost and lost again again. Hour later back to Diamond 8 :(

     Happened to me before reaching diamond 10, I had an 8 game win streak up to gold 1 and then I faced a slew of odd dhs that pushed me all the way down to gold 4, I earned a slightly hotter place in hell that day. Right now at diamond 9 and chilling, I'll probably craft either odd dh or pirate warrior to get to d5 if my maly druid gets stomped on too much tho.

     Was at Diamond 1 with 2 stars 3 days ago and basically went on a 10-game losing streak and now having issues just getting back to Diamond 3.

    I thought Quest/Secret Mage was my worst nightmare and now I am just chain losing to nothing but Demon Warlocks. Just lost 4 in a row to them. 

    I know I am done for the night if I am getting raped like this.

    posted a message on Is mage oppressive in Wild?

    Apparently, I have been running in a wall of Secret and Quest Mages now that is played by good players and I am just getting crushed out here.

    Both decks do need a nerf and that is saying something considering my favorite class happens to be Mage.

    Honestly, I don't want to join them but I do want to hit Legend this month after getting to Diamond 5 a few days ago with Highlander Hunter esp. since I have all of the cards. I may have no choice.
