    Insinuating this isn't now one of the most powerful 1 drops in the game.  This thing is ridiculous.

    Wtf.  Blizzard has to contract them to do this.  This is Blizzard controlled already.  You don't understand a lot of things, do you?

    They removed a lot of bad cards so your choices would be higher quality overall.  It's a better approach to remove shitty cards from your selections than take away good cards.

    Hearthstone is being pushed to be mostly competitive, with real deck-building creativity being pushed aside
     This is a logical fallacy.  Competitive decks needs to be creatively built before they can be played.  At the highest levels, creative deck building is the key to being competitive.  At all levels, if you want to crack the metagame you need to be create a deck builds that beats the most popular decks.  Just because that creativity takes places in a competitive context doesn't make it any less creative.  It just makes it less 'silly'.  Too many complainers seem to think that creativity means silliness, which is not true.
    Competitive metagames are adaptive processes, exactly like evolution.  You can't have evolution without variation.  In Hearthstone, that means creative experimentation in deck building.
     Too many apologists seem to think that changing 2 cards to 2 other already considered popular and viable cards in a preexisting popular deck is 'creativity'.

    The game used to be a lot slower, and thus lets you tinker and play around with different decks

     When?  In Alpha, maybe.  From Open Beta on, people have been saying exactly the same thing.  Back then they complained about Zoo and Face Hunter.  That complaint has been the same for the entire life of the game, the only thing that changes is the name of the current fast decks.
    People want to win.  If you can't deal with that, perhaps games in general are not for you...
     The game has definitely had very slow periods post-alpha.  Don't get hyperbolic please.  Mods should be better than that.

    posted a message on Standart sucks a$$ PERIOD.
    Quote from Toymachine >>

    It's not Standart it's Standard. And it doesn't suck, it's great. Balance was never better in Hearthstone, and exactly cos of that it's harder to climb since more skill is needed to actually win, which you obviously lack. 

    Check out that salt thread and search some coaching

     Standard is so horrible lol.  The game has never been more boring, homogenized, and flowcharted.  Skill isn't needed, only time and an aggressive net deck.  Diversity and playstyle in Wild is INSANELY better because people actually play fun and interesting decks since Wild Legend doesn't get you anything.  Standard needs like 2 more cycles of content cuts before it's even worth talking about.  Standard is disgustingly, horrendously boring and shitty.

    posted a message on Complete List of Online CCGs

    Deck cap is 70 in Legends, though there is little to no reason you would ever make a deck with more than 50 cards (because thinning your deck is bad).  Also there kind of are classes in a sense because there are dual attribute epics and legendaries that only work with specific color combos, not to mention all of the combos have class names like spellsword, sorcerer, etc.

     

    Also Legends is quietly by far the best CCG since Hearthstone.

    posted a message on Prince Malchezaar

    In the worst case scenario its a Pit Fighter that adds 5 cards to your deck size for free immediately, and they're all most likely heavy valuable late game cards that you otherwise wouldn't have the deck space to run.  This card is so much better than Elise.  1000% lock for any deck even sniffing a control theme.

    Literally didn't even know people looked at the dust cost of decks.  Who doesn't have all the cards at this point?  I've had nothing to collect for years.

    posted a message on Top 2 - Tavern Brawl #48
    Quote from Faustreau >>

    This brawl sounds fun, but after some play, it turns out this might be the most disgusting, unbalanced, and most boring at all, because of mechwarper + something else, or Coldlight Oracle + Naturalize fatigue shit... most players seems to be like don't have creativity and they play dirty.

    I used Jorney Below + Defias Ringleader. You know why? Just for fucking fun, not to make the foe concede. I wanted to PLAY with 'em NOT being asshole with em, like others did.

    So screw this brawl. It's not about I can play it or not - its about ENJOYING a brawl. And that's why this brawl does not enjoyable. IMO.

     The broken OP combos ARE the fun part.  Your thing sounds dumb.

    posted a message on Will servers be stable this time?

    Probably not.  Standard is the biggest change Hearthstone has ever had in one patch.  Beta players have been waiting 2 years for this.

    posted a message on It is obvious they are protecting their largest base from leaving, Mage and Paladin no nerfs.
    Quote from Elfragero >>
    Quote from pawnthemind >>

    Mage is the most played class, not a single nerf.  They love this class so much they gave them two alternative heroes already while Druid, Priest and Warlock have none.

    Paladin second most played class, not a single nerf. Brode's favorite deck is "control Paladin"... I guess now we know why he didn't find mysterious challenger OP.

    Not that the nerfs will change much other than Druid, the rest of the cards will still be used. Odd they didn't nerf emperor. A card used in almost EVERY deck.

     Emperor in every deck lol.  Credibility gone. 
     He said 'almost every', which is 100% accurate. <snip>  
    That said Mage isn't the best class and tournament results show it.  <snip>
