 Either way this shows me that you care way too much for that number next to your hearthstone nickname, and you have no qualms about ruining someone else's game to keep it.

 Let's talk about this line for a second. The whole point of casual is to play without losing stars in ranked, that is the whole point.  So someone playing casual mode for the reason it was intended now automatically cares way too much for the number next to their hearthstone nickname? That's some real solid logic there. I guess someone using a comb to brush their hair cares too much about how their hair looks.

Casual mode is not meant to be the game mode that you want it to be. 

 Just so you don't think I'm arrogant enough to think I should be the one who decides how people play this game I'll concede this to you: yes, casual mode was implemented into the game to allow players to play basically the same mode as ranked, but without their rank on the line. 

This doesn't change the fact that there are exactly two kinds of people who play casual:those who go there to have fun and take a break from serious play in ranked, and those who go there to whore wins by taking advantage of the other players. Are they going against the game rules or should they be banned for doing so? No, not really. Like you said, they are merely using the mode to their benefit in a completely "legitimate" way. Does this makes them dickheads who suck at this game and need to resort to this to get some sort of gratification from playing it because they can't win games consistently against actual decks in ranked mode in my eyes? Yes, yes it does. And as a side note it also means they don't really feel like improving, although I guess that is down to the individual's mindset with online games.

I have very close to a full set of cards across every expansion. I enjoy playing all classes and want to have the strongest deck I can make for each one. Until I am able to make more than 9 decks I will not be taking the time to make sub-par decks so that other players have a better chance of beating me. Keeping track of and changing around decks takes more effort than I believe is fair to expect people to make weak decks for essentially the purpose of winning less. Also, the rewards we get for playing aren't exactly bountiful. Earning that extra 20 gold in a play session, using a deck I worked hard for and enjoy playing, and not having to worry about losing stars so that I can't progress my rank are all more important than making sure others can win with crappy decks to me. 

I think getting 12 wins in the arena is a reasonably important milestone for a lot of player. There should be a special card back as a reward. Make it happen Blizz!

The last few cards will randomly come over time. If there is nothing you need or want to play with remaining, just hang on to your gold for the next set to give you a head start on that.

Mill decks, secret paladins, and control warriors. I just don't find think it's fun to play against these 3 decks.

I find it to be one of the funniest parts of the game when I get an invite followed by those sweet tears of rage. I accept every time just for the laughs.

I too would like some more functionality out of the collection tracker. I really like how it syncs and takes care of updating on it's own, but this collection tracker is not as good as other ones out there. I'd like to see the following added.

- An "I don't care about golden cards" option that would remove some of the clutter while going through the cards.

- Pack recommendation that compares the individual values of different packs based on what you already have.

- Track total number of Basics, Commons, Rares, Epics, and Legendaries over total needed for full collection.

- Dust value of entire collection and amount of dust needed to craft what is missing.

- More cards displayed per page when flipping through collection, perhaps smaller images to reduce load time.

- A wish list to keep track of which cards you want/need.

- The ability to sync decks as well

- I don't like that in "Collection Stats" it displays as for instance xx/48 for Druids. This makes it seem like we only want 1 of each card. It should be xx/93 since that's whats needed for 2x all B/C/R/E and 1x all L

That's all I can think of for now. I realize it is in Beta. Just wanted to throw some ideas at you guys.

I've been thinking about Mad Bombers and/or Madder Bomber in a Patron deck. Actually might work well.

Since it can be so difficult to plan on getting any specific card by any way other than crafting I think that every 12 hours every player should be offered 3-5 random cards (usually uncommons and rares, with the occasional epic, and extremely rarely a legendary) that can be purchased for gold or cash. I'm not even going to begin to speculate what prices for either currency, but this would for one give people an incentive to try and check in periodically and also would give another option for microtransactions (OMG! I can have Ragnaros right now for $10!), increasing revenue for Blizz and hopefully getting everyone faster releases on new cards and expansions. Once your collection folder gets close to full you can grind gold to do arena once a day and still go a whole week without getting a singular new card for your collection. A pack is pretty much worth 40 dust at that point, you could possibly spend $50 on packs (or grind a pack a day for 40 days) and only get exactly enough dust to craft 1 legendary or 4 epics. I'm not exactly willing to spend $50 to get one card that I want, and I think this could help the people that are missing just a few trace cards from their collection.
