Come take a swim on the wild side. The water is just fine! There is a lot of fun decks with badlands cards and the new set is going to open up a lot of new ones too.

This is a legitimate question.  Climbing can be such a hassle.  There’s nothing worse than being 1 win away from a rank floor only to go on a long losing streak.  Just happened to me for the 3rd time in the last couple days.  Even more frustrating is when you lose matchups you should win, and not because you played bad, but because your opponent just draws like a god and you get the shaft.  It leaves such a bitter taste because there’s just nothing you can do, nothing you can learn from it.  I’ve been pushing to try and regain my lost bonus stars after I went on a rather long hiatus but this keeps happening and every time it does I just put the game away for a few days so while I should be much higher than I am, I just can’t bring myself to sit there and bash my head against the wall of god drawing face hunters and elemental shamans that I should be beating.  I just feel like progress is being stolen rather than actually lost.

 For me, the game only became enjoyable after I stopped caring about my rank. The first few years, I pushed hard trying to get to legend and I stopped playing after awhile because I never got there. When I returned, I tried out wild and found that I really enjoyed building off meta decks. Ultimately, my goal is to have fun, so if I'm not, I'll stop playing.

OP: To answer your question, yes this game is 100% rigged. From MMR, to the opponent's decks you face, to the cards you draw, to your top draw,  down to the discovery pool.

 Do they use the same technology to control the weather?

How I'm doing is I'm wondering how many actual people actually enjoy Hearthstone right now. I can't imagine it's very many. Only reason most are playing is because of sunk cost/addiction/dopamine. But how many are actually having fun?

Btw I am having fun. But that's because I build my own decks and draft my own arenas and don't care about rank or wins but being creative and finding lesser things that work together

 Same! I just build janky wild decks and play a few games a night in lower ranks. I've really been enjoying reno dragon druid and divine shield excavate paladin recently. 

This thread is suspicious. 

Happy Holidays everyone! Thank you to the hearthpwn team for giving us a place to get the news and discuss this game!

I've had problems with the new cards button with previous releases. They showed up alongside all the other cards for me though.

The Forbidden Fruit art bothers me. Druid card, so you expect druids. But that's a clearly human hand, and humans can't be druids. At best that is a Blood Elf hand, but Belves can't be druids either.

Muh immersion :p

 Could be a Worgen in human form. They can be druids. 

I'm having a blast! I like that there are so many anomalies, I still see ones I haven't played. They can be highrolly, but I usually don't see more than one crazy comp per lobby so I'm still consistently getting fourth or higher.

Pick best performing class from hsreplay or metastats. 
Than dischant cards you don't use anymore and net-deck the list. 

Creativity is dead and the only fun you would get is to make something fun and loose billion times. 

GGs.

 Take this advice if you want to burn out and stop playing again.

Thanks for the info, that is one truly retardedly worded card... Now that I think of it, when it worked Dirge a priest had copied and played it so there was a Twisting Nether in play.

 I understood it just fine the first time I read it.

Just play what you want to play and the ladder will not put you with the net deckers. I see net decks maybe 1 in 10 games and all I play is homemade jank.

Quote from Tarious >>

Overheal still has very little support and saw no play. Priest is currently getting by on their control tools. The last thing Paladin needs is a multi-turn +1 mana cost for your enemies spells. Pure paladin is already a problem cause they don't want to address the real problem (the windfury weapon) and it's going to get worse.

 I'll say upfront I only play wild, but the new core cards are solid pieces for an aggro paladin. Flood the board turns one to three and then you get three permanent savage roars in a row. Use the other one to limit the mana they can use to respond.

It would be a lot more work, but you could find out the total number of cards in one class plus neutrals and use a random number generator to generate 39 numbers and then use those corresponding cards. I don’t know of any automated tools to help though.

Quote from Hearthsam >>

I guess we'll have to see what the other rogue cards are to try and make sense of this, but from face value it's a head scratcher. We have Enchanter which is better than this and doesn't see play. Tar slick could have at least applied to enemies only.

 I must be missing something, but when are we seeing the rest of the rogue cards? There aren’t anymore scheduled reveals for them and there should be like 4 or 5 more cards.
