Don't let some elitists fool you into believing there exists a higher ground of playing in this game.
There is only a lower ground, and that's occupied exclusively by dedicated Big Priest players.

Flavor Text: They come to smash our kegs and then they throw us free brews.
Lore:
Coren Direbrew is a Dark Iron dwarf infamous for attacking the denizens of Azeroth during the ale-swilling festival Brewfest. Sending his Dark Iron troops to the surface in mole machines, it's never long before adventurers form a party to tackle Coren head-on, and take the fight to him in his lair in Blackrock Depths.
When facing Coren Direbrew in combat, dark brewmaiden NPC tosses the players with the brew that causes them to disorient if not drank in time. This is what the item says while in your hand:
"
Drink this before the Brewmaiden throws you another.
A Dark Brewmaiden has thrown you a mug of Dark Iron Ale. If you don't drink it she will clobber you with another mug, stunning you for 6 sec.

I think the most important takeaway from this thread is that there needs to be a grandmother-tribe :)

"Ben Brode also said he thinks Cubelock may continue to be strong and if it's too strong, it may need to be nerfed. Also, there's a Shaman card coming which players will "lose their minds about"."
Here is an idea: Stop making cards/decks that will be so problematic that you have to discuss nerfs one expansion later, or sometimes right after they came out. I don't know what bothers me more: That Ben thinks about nerfs already before the expansion launches, or that he hints at a card that we might as well see nerfed 6 months from now, if it's really that crazy.
Eric Dodds once said that he would only want to see cards changed when it's "absolutely necessary". He said: "We want players to find their own creative solutions to different decks, not to wait for us to nerf the flavor the month [sic]". Yes, this was during Beta, but you stuck with this guideline until you came up with Standard. By now, it has become a routine to nerf whatever is the strongest deck of the meta, and partially, it is a routine by design philosophy. You keep making decks stronger and introduce more insane cards until you get to a point where it has become "absolutely necessary" to nerf something, and then it begins all over again, usually with a different class. Internal testing is probably never entirely sufficient to prevent these cases from happening, and it can always happen that a card gets too strong by accident or was just underestimated, but they happened so frequently last year that you might want to be a bit more critical with yourself. Every single expansion since WOG made changes to one or more cards from the newest set, a previous one and/or the core set "absolutely necessary".
Be open and clear that it has become part of your strategy to let decks get out of hand or that you willingly make overpowered cards to see how far you can push the limit, if that is the case. If you fully anticipate that the community gets frustrated over certain cards and decks you make, fine, but then don't act so innocent and contemplative whenever you respond to critics. Just say "yup, we know it's broken. Don't worry, we'll nerf it eventually". OR, if this is NOT your intention, be more critical with your design and balance decisions. Especially when it comes to future expansions.

Do NOT try the new "No Antonidas Exodia Quest Mage". Very low winrate.

Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year!!!

I have the lamest tradition with my girlfriend. She does not care about Hearthstone, but she loves to open packs and she loves to kiss me. Thus, I combined the two things.
This is our very lame system:
Golden = double
If it's a legendary I really want = double
(yes a golden legendary I want means 200 kiss - and yes it has happened).
If she opens five 40-dust packs in a row I subtract one kiss from the next pack she opens (you know... to keep her motivated) until she opens at least 2x rare cards.
She gets five packs where all cards give double kiss (she must call it before she opens the pack) - and yes it stacks with previous bonuses.
It is incredibly lame, I know. However, she absolutely loves it and that's all that matters to me.

As a priest player, I agree that Barnes is a major problem.
Frustrated and sucking at the game? Play big priest, jump from 9 to 3 with almost no losses due to the broken barnes mechanic.

We seriously need to stop opening new threads about how unfairly op hunter is.
Get over it.
Counter it.
Or join it.

He obviously is trolling, but let's have fun anyway.

Awesome find! I recently discovered that some of the cards somehow seem to resemble characters from a game named world of warcraft.
