If you can get every card for free why would you pay for them ? I don't understand your dilemma.

 my dilemma is to spend or to multiply. 

 I don't think that you'll see much growth coming from this investment thou ;) 

I would ask my self "when will I spend all of my resources?". One day you'll quit playing this game and by then, every grain of dust will practically be wasted. Of course you can just make a lot of golden cards in the end, but you wouldn't post this if you just enjoyed spending money on the game right? 

If I were you I would just get the battle pass for the green XP and other cosmetic features that make me feel better and start butchering some of that dust. You won't even spend half of it anyway.

Aaaaah good to know... Them cheeky bastards ;)

Are you sure that your devices are set to the same country? Pretty sure that ie. the Battlepass costs 20€ no matter the device in the top paying countries.

I would be very surprised if Blizzard could get away with posting the odds for the different rarities, knowing that those odds weir false or skewing the odds like that  (Pity timer is no secret). Celestalon has posted rarity odds numerous times and I don't think that he's willing to go to court over it...

I'm curious how people conclude that their draw was rigged. It often seems like anything that isn't an average of all values is considered rigged or ANY card being pulled was suddenly the unlikely event that proved it all. 

Would it make sense to make the counter card more likely to appear from discover? It would add to the excitement, but my experience is that people tend to pull out cards that are just powerful complimentary effects, making that miracle Twisting Nether from 3 turns before a lot less sensational.

Would it make sense to match up people in accordance to their win rate and play experience? ABSOLUTELY! It's called match making and it's no secret that it's an essential part of the ladder experience, just like those people in the NFL aren't randomly picked, because an unfair match-up is a waste of all players time.

But if you make the voice lines generic, won't you lose most of the cards flavor? 

Do you actually want to play some Amani warrior who speaks in nobleman's English?

Game 2 - Won on turn 11 - SG played: 1
SG drawn: 1 - at turn 10 - CID: 14
Comment: Even though I was winning, SG was a nice topdeck to finish the game next turn. I found 1 SG in 16 cards. Nothing unusual here.

 But what IS unusual? If the card is NOT around the middle of your deck? Because THAT would be unusual if it consistently did. 

Did you try with any other card in your deck? EXACTLY! You're only interested in SG so you only think of those odds instead of all the other cards. 

BTW: What is even the abnormal thing about those games? They look like some pretty insignificant dice rolls...

How does a combo control deck that is defeated by aggro work?

From what I can see, mid range gets pushed out because aggro and control are too efficient.

As far as I understand, if you disenchant them, you will still have them because they are core. However, once core rotates, you won't have them anymore

 That is correct! 

If you don't want to play with rag in wild/classic, go ahead! But that wasn't exactly what you insinuated with your question, so your short answer is NO! You will not gain any dust this way, you'll just be trimming the old collection

I guess I made the mistake of using irony on this site :p 

no counter ? There's literally control priests and mages everywhere . Solid alibis , dirty rats pullin out your countess and purator .. C'mon man you've reached top 500 legend and complain about pure paladin? Hard cap 

Also this post belongs in the salt thread ( worst meta ever the 1000th time literally) 

I ain't no Standard player, so I have to ask: Has Secret Mage ever been good in Standard?

It feels like it always misses the mark in Standard and adds another layer of synergy to Wild. If this is the case, what's the point of pushing secrets into Standard where they don't even stick?

I got my first Spicy Pretzel Mustard in a while, they used to happen on a regular basis but Battlegrounds has done a good job of balancing so steamrolling through a whole game is much less common because early units are no longer OP.

When I won the last battle, I remembered a tie occurred several rounds earlier so I wasn't sure I would get it.

But I got the achievement.

You... need to read a professionally sourced book on or take a college class in statistics.

Your sample size wouldn't even be called laughable by any manner of reasonable statistical analysis... there's not even a word to describe how incomplete your data set is.

To put this into comparison, your premise, as translated to another genre, reads: "The Titanic was sunk by an iceberg, therefore all large ocean vessels sink because of icebergs."

So people who play arena complain about randomness while they literally play a game mode where they draft random decks ?

Discover is good for the game, there's a reason it's been an evergreen keyword for almost a decade, get over it. Only a vocal minority of dedicated bad players complain about it. It is great for both casual who want diversity when playing the game, and actual good high rank players who know how to play with and around it.

When you read hearthpwn you'd think discover is the single worst thing that's ever happened to Hearthstone. Then you remember 90% of hearthpwn population is playing hours a day but stuck in limbo silver/gold ranks. (Which is fine, you just aren't the target audience).

It’s one of the reasons to play hs

Think of a regular Standard pack, but all non-Signature cards in it are Golden. That's what Golden Standard packs contain. They can drop Signatures where possible, yes.

Signatures in Golden packs are.... weird, because their odds are different depending upon which set they are:

• Golden Standard have the same chances as regular packs for Signatures, 1 every 187 packs on average with a pity timer of 361.
• Golden Festival of Legends have the same chances as a Golden Legendary in that set, 1 every 20 packs on average with a pity timer of 40.
• Golden Match of the Lich King have greatly inflated odds, 1 every 7 packs on average with a pity timer of 14. 

Holy crap please stop comparing cards to yeti and stranglethorn tiger. These are 10 year old cards which hold no sway in the power level of today's cards.

Gnome Muncher is a good card, but it's not breaking the game or anything. In fact I'd claim it's already been powercrept since its release. Screaming Banshee is a way, way more oppressive card and single handedly shuts down aggro decks far more than muncher does, and at 5 mana.

So i came across this druid build that involves a jailer card destroying an opponents deck making their monsters immune....but at the same time they are able to silence their own minions to reverse a deck swap thus destroying an opponents deck while keeping their own intact yet nothing i do can actually kill these minions? for one....if they can silence an IMMUNUE minion....other people should be able to silence one or all of them.....2nd there is no reason that even silencing a battle cry minion should be reversing this deck swap when its not even listed in the cards tooltips....Tony, King of Piracy should have this effect be a 1 time thing as this is wildly unfair to combo this with Anub Rekan and simply destroying the opponents deck while keeping theirs....now my issue is....AGAIN they are capable of altering an IMMUNE minion to reverse this deck swap....yet opponents arent able to do anything of the same? something needs a rework and Tony needs to be made a battlecry only not a reversable thing or something....being on turn 8 or 9 to have your entire deck destroyed by this combo seems like its just simply destroying the fun factor in this game for me crap like this is why i havent even tried to push ladder content at all in a couple years thinking things had changed but nope....yall still have some stupid cancer decks that you do nothing about except let em run rampant with no way to counter it at all

 I often wonder if people even look at data before just blabbing on about nerfs. God it’s so cringe. Complain about literally anything that you lose to. The only thing that loses to that Druid is super greedy control. And even then, AoE like whirlpool, twisting nether, soul stealer is an instant win against it. 

Aggro is counterplay. 

Non damage board wipes are counter play. 

Destroy random enemy minion is counterplay. 

Don’t just emotionally lob out some whiny, cringe post about a deck you probably have rarely played and instantly say it has no counter play/needs to be nerfed, when it’s not even a great deck and DEFINITELY has counterplay. 

Some people in this community...

"but the devs are literally incapable of grasping the core issues of hearthstone ranked mode"

Hyperbole makes your point less credible.
