Played biggles three times. Your assessment is spot on for me so far. Getting rekt early on with no advantage (at least Krag can choose if they are desperate). One person even sold their whole war and before dying because they saw they were losing (hella spiteful). I did once have a nice turn and got 2 people dying at once and getting some Goldens and nice discovers. However I do have to say my mid range boards in all of these plays were just awful and I obviously blame rng not my skill
This lets you scry. The new dh legendary lets you discard. Those are two completely new interactions of hs. (Corrupting a card was the closest to forcing a discard but not nearly the same)
Keep tracking. It will win you games. It’s more of a late game card than early because you want if for a solution. You have some more controlly type cards in there when I think you need more aggressive/ removal.
against DH you want to just be able to live through their early game so consider what you need against 2 health minions. The 2/1 rush beast works well. I used it last month when I got legend using highlander hunter.
Probably still playable. But completely ruins the tempo of turn 3 satyr. Turn 5 what’s-their-face-4-damage. Turn 1 greedy demon turn. I won’t miss it at all during altruis.
If you have a good star bonus of course its gonna be easier. I like the star system because it allows you to quickly get back to the rank you were before so you can hang out where you should be.
Man, I haaaaate losing to people who have made obviously suboptimal choices in deck construction.
Just played a person that was like a mish-mash of tempo, control and midrange warrior. Admittedly, it took a slow start from me and a topdeck Brawl into topdeck Livewire Lance into Kobold Lackey from him to kill me, but Jesus Christ; at least bring a proper deck!
Though in their defense, their deck was 100% golden - so perhaps some of those odd choices were just to get the 100% rather than because they actually thought they were appropriate.
Edit: oof, then a mage who, after getting double Incanters Flow, got turn 8 and 10 Puzzlebox against my onslaught (though to be fair, first box drew 3 cards making it easier to hit second). 17 out of 20 spells were positive for them, including lethal the turn after the second thanks to face damage plus Power of Creation. Those losses sting because skill is taken entirely out of the equation at that point - if you're forced to play Box or lose, there's no decision tree and you're just hoping to get lucky.
The only thing I like about puzzle box is at least you know the games about to end.
Just made legend. Started today at D1 with 2 stars. Went 5-5 thought I’d quit. Played one later and had a perfect game against mirror. Was about to quit for the day to save the boss fight but my friend wanted to spectate me. Had another nearly perfect game against mirror. Got gruul. But feels good.
Man I'm lightly salted today. I got two D1 with 2 stars. I had been playing only a couple games a day, moving slowly and getting a star or two a day. But I decided to just go for it and went down a terrible tilting hole back to D3. Not the worst thing in the world but just gotta vent.
They had a 7/6 questing adventurer out and I had no answers. Throw down a priestess of fury (dirty dh player I know but Im bad at this game) and all 6 hit it.

No murlocs = go big or go lose. PArrots are goldies best friend. I like it

I am excited to try discardlock again, but have a feeling some of these new cards are actually just going to tweak zoo around.

I hope so, because then I can actually use soul infusion
