I will start with shaman
Mana Tide Totem > 3 mana 0/4 or 2 mana 0/3. No brainer
Tidal Wave > down to 7 mana? Maybe a bit too busted but it is way to slow at the moment.
Vashj Prime > down to 6 mana. You want to have more impact on the turn you play her.
" shaman player above. btw you must be stupid to"
What a nice way to argue with someone.

Crabrider should be class-specific for shaman.
that stats are NOT for natural cards!

Quote from PetiteMouche >>Sinse the nerf i have playing non-stop with a couple of builds of Spell priest, control priest and corrupt priest.
This is where I stopped reading.
You play control priest, aka the slowest class/archetype in the entire game, and wonder why you still lose to a snowball deck that draws its win condition on curve ? I bet you didn't even play a single card before turn 4 and expected to crush lunacy mages lol. They nerfed Lunacy, they didn't kill it. Stop over reacting and get good or play aggro. Priest is cancer even when it's bad, always remember that before you start complaining again about other classes.
My dear i dont remember said that i was playing ONLY hyper control priest. I am corrently playing a version fo the deck that can afford and usually puts a lot of presure in the first 6 turns with minions that generate spells, going for early game dragons and cloning spells. I am not playin "press the hero power and end turn" - That said i dont need to prove you nothing and EVERYONE knows that Priest is not the only class that is hurt by this situation. Warrior seems play? nope, a class that get a LOT of midgame minions, and have even more tools to curve the game than Priest is played even less than priest. Why? because warrior players love to press hero power and end turn too? Nope is not because of that.
Its because playing for tempo is almost impossible right now. Playing for value is not rewarded in this class neither. So if you only argument to tell me that is nothing wrong with the meta is: lol you play priest i hope you never get a good deck forever. You are in fact just crazy and salty. Hope Big Priest keep haunting you on Wild.

My dude, that's a great speech, and I wholeheartedly agree that society could use more of this in general.
But.
I love spell mage. And always have since they first revealed Font of Power, Incanter's Flow, Apexis Blast and Evocation way back in Ashes of Outland.
It's been pretty fringe and not very good until literally just now. So you better believe I'm going to enjoy it until they axe some cards and make it bad again.
Or maybe they will nerf it just enough that the people you reference in your post that lack integrity will stop playing it and I can go back to not feeling personally attacked for just doing what I think is fun.

It's been the problem since the game's release. An absolute minuscule percentage of the player base create their own decks, the rest net decks without ever thinking about creating anything themselves. Hearthstone's meta could be insanely fun if people tried things out, but they don't, it's all about pissing others off and picking the most overpowered garbage WHILE emoting every single time they have an insane turn.

Everybody knows how broken mage is atm. So come over 50% of my games are vs Mage? Do people really care about winning over having intergrity that much? Wheres the challenge in playing a deck that is supposed to win?
If people continue to take advantage of broken shit in the game, the state of the game will stay shit. Have some courage and integrity, dont be a part of the problem, live in the solution. Lead by example. Grow up. Theres more to life than just winning.
I remember watching an Archery competition, and one competitor broke their Bows string and couldnt shoot. The opponent saw this, and stepped up for their turn, but didnt shoot.
THEY HAD INTEGRITY and didnt want to win that way.
Hearthstone needs more people like this, winrates be damned. With rank floors at every 5 and 10, u cant lose too many ranks playing with intergrity.
What would you teach your children to do? Take advantage of others, of broken mechanics, and win at all cost!! Or, teach them about fair play and why it matters?
Just some thoughts for the day from a regular player who loves the game.

Also, remove the sound effect.

His post took time, and effort, a lot of it, and is obviously an opinion piece.
You’re just some random troll that thought it worth the time to make yourself look dumb.
You get 0 ⭐️.

Most of all, Tickatus makes Warlock himself cry, because it's the worst deck in the current meta (if we can call it meta deck at all).

I've been playing Hearthstone for nearly 6 years. In that time it has become probably one of my favourite games of all time, right alongside Street Fighter II Champion Edition and Tekken (very different games I know!). Over the years I've spent a lot of money on this game, probably close to or even more than $3,000 to date. I'm definitely in the whale category.
So why am I making this thread? What's the point? Well, I honestly don't know. I suppose this is one of those 'I'm outta here' threads so I fully expect the customary 'don't let the door hit you on your way out' or 'who are you again' replies below.
But I do genuinely think that I am done with Hearthstone. The game just doesn't excite me anymore. I mainly play constructed and have zero interest in Arena or Duels. BG's is OK but not something I really enjoy. Constructed has become unfun for me. I am good enough at the game to know how many misplays I make during a normal ladder game and I just don't have the time to play enough to 'git gud'. Hearthstone has become a frustration for me and the frustration now outweighs the enjoyment I used to get from the game.
More than that, constructed has started to feel very samey to me regardless of what cards are in rotation. The classes seem to play the same way they always have, doing the same things with new cards.
I've always said that I'll stop playing when the game is no longer enjoyable and I think that time has finally arrived. I am lucky enough to have disposable income to spend as much as I like on the game so money isn't the issue. It's just that spending upwards of $500 a year on something you no longer enjoy makes no sense. It's a shame because I have a great collection including tons of golden legendaries from the times before Standard. Plus I'm sitting on about 120k gold and over 12k dust. I guess my account will stay like that, frozen in time, waiting for me to log back in again one day. Maybe I’ll get a good welcome back deck when / if I do!
The e sports side of HS is something I've always enjoyed and I will probably keep following it at least in the short term.
Anyway, I just felt that I should write this seeing as I've visited Hearthpwn every single day for nearly 6 years. I'm not bashing HS in any way and I have zero interest in trying another online card game.
I've enjoyed being a small part of the forum and wish you all the best of luck with your future pack openings. And may the RNGods be kind to you.
Take it easy, peace.

Hi there. As a control warrior player, I'm quite excited about our new class legendary Varian Wrynn. Not so confident about him being that überstrong (could be), but want to try him for sure. I modified some late game picks of my current control warrior deck in order to attempt to optimize Varian's battlecry outcomes (for example, Alexstrasza for Ysera, Geddon for Ragnaros, etc.). I also cut out Shieldmaiden x1 to include Justicar Trueheart, I know it may not be the right choice, and both aren't really good with Varian's battlecry, but still want to try that card (anyway, I'd like to hear opinions about Trueheart, do you think she'll be decent in this kind of deck?). And I love Sylvanas and Thaurissan, so I can't remove any of those (plus imo they are good targets for Varian). What do you think about this deck? Any obvious change I may not see? Thanks in advance and apologies for my English ^^

Have to agree, those cards look OP as hell. Some concepts are nice, but they need tweaks.
Only class cards look somewhat balanced to me.
Anyway, it's just personal opinion. As said, some ideas are cool, just keep polishing it :3
Have a nice day!

Iron Juggernaut, hands down. First golden legendary I've ever crafted (good bye 3200 dust :'D). And it has the plus of bringing a lovely golden Mine too :3

Warrior might feel annoying in a similar way as Priest, cause they tend to go for long games via heals/armor while just clearing your board, and then their big minions come and gg. The fact is that if they don't get their removal early game (and start with only big stuff in hand, which isn't that strange, even if you "know" how to mulligan) you can just overflow board and their heals/armor won't be enough. I main Warrior and lots of games I get screwed early game and then you can't do much cause your mana curve tends to go for a 1 card-drop per turn and against a flooded board you can't do shit.

What they say about Alexstrasza "interaction" with Iron Juggernaut is true, sometimes you can screw your own plays with that two cards together, but that was my main reason to cut Alexstrasza from my deck: let's say I was a bit tired of that card, there were many games where I found quite difficult to play her (9 mana cost ~ full turn), so you can understand Iron Juggernaut like a smaller "substitute", with the plus of being immune to Big Game Hunter (card that is going to see a lot of play). But yeh, it depends on the game, sometimes one will be better, sometimes the other... Iron Juggernaut will always be 10 damage, Alextrasza sometimes is better (i.e. bring 30 to 15 HP) and others you just get "shitty plays" like a 17 to 15 HP and Faceless'ed/BGH'ed next turn, which happens A LOT to me Y___Y, and sometimes you can't even get a positive play and get forced to heal your enemy (well, there's the self-healing scenario too, but if you have to use Alex as a heal, you are probably screwed anyway, considering how control warrior works). So yes, Iron Juggernaut has an obvious random factor with the mine-card position, but at the same time it's a solid mechanic of plain 10 damage to the face, which is always good.
In addition, I tend to prefer lower mana drops cause I'm really unlucky and get these Alexstraszas and stuff like that in the opening hand, so a 6 drop > 9 drop in that scenarios, and in late game you can consider a 6 drop more "flexible" cause you can spend the other 4 crystals in "other things" (well, that's obvious shit). I admit I hate 9 mana drops cause they just shut your turn 95% times.
That's my non-pr0 vision of this pair of cards, and my reason to prefer Iron Maccaroni to Alexstrasza.
Have a nice day! :D

I spent almost all my dust fortune in a Golden Iron Juggernaut. As it's been said, I think it's such a cool card you "need" to have it in your warrior deck. Besides that, it's a really good card for a control deck, when you tend to make games last longer (aka more chances to draw mine). Victories with the mine explosion are the best that has happened to me in this game since release. As a minion, it's just average (6/5 for 6), but has the advantage of being a mech, with all the new interactions and synergies, and it's a nice "fake-target" for hard removal, so then you can drop your bigger guys with no worries. The 10 damage to the face is huge value, like a random Pyroblast, which is great when you try to go for fatigue games (typical control warrior way).
About Bouncing Blades, I'm not a big fan for now... sometimes can be great, others you just can't use it in a viable way.
But Crush... oh, Crush, gotta love that card. Assassinate for 3 mana? Gimme please. It's really easy to activate the -4 mana cost (7 to 3) with warrior... I mean, that's not hard with almost any class that uses big minions, but particularly warrior has lots of tools for self-damage, so yeh. Plus, this spell has a really cool animation.
I'd ignore Bouncing Blades for now and go for Crush and Iron Juggernaut, particularly if you play control warrior.
Sorry for my English and have a nice day :D

Well, Paladin is quite a pussy-theme, all that light and golden stuff, you know... I wouldn't expect really cool things :333
