Seems like a bad strategy, to be honest. I know the point for Blizzard is to sell cards, but AIMING for only 10 basic/classic cards per deck? Sounds very artificial and not in the player's best interest.

Twitchy posted a message on Call of the WildPosted in: Call of the WildCould everyone PLEASE stop posting pictures of a card's perfect counter under EVERY new card released, just to fish for upvotes?
And even if a Mage happens to have Flamestrike after you play Call of the Wild, you've still won the trade. Why? Because the Mage just used his most important AoE clear to get rid of a single card, and you still get a 5 damage charge no matter what.

robert_fanr posted a message on Why do people think aggro is easy or scummy?Posted in: General DiscussionUsually when I play an aggro deck I tend to not play around anything but the most obvious things .
And that is often the correct strategy . Playing around things that aren't likely or that can't be played around efficiently actually decreases win rate .
So in a way Aggro decks are very INTUITIVE . Also aggro decks have the exact same plan vs any other deck while control might have different win conditions .
That's why people say they require less skill .
But a counter argument is that playing as a control deck vs an aggro deck is actually Easier . All you have to do i's try to survive . You know exactly what the opponent is trying to do and often can guess what cards he is holding so it's a matter of playing your cards and hope you get good RNG .

Darksylum posted a message on Could Hearthstone Players on iOS Soon be Buying Dust Instead of Card Packs?Posted in: NewsLet's get back to reality here because I know you melenial children are lacking in common sense and very disconnected from reality. Loot box, RNG purchases of any sort, and yes even card packs on a game are unethical at the least and downright greed ridden.
For decades people have bought all sorts of card games, collectibles, board games, and yes even PC and console games without such an absurd amount of greed incorporated into the pricing.
You may say " well if you buy a pack of Pokemon cards what's the difference? It's all random also!" That is true but the difference is you obtain a solid real product you can hold in your hand. It is a collectable that gains value over time, and you can play Pokemon cards with someone 20 years from now if you wish. The point is, it's real. And you thus own it physically and it can not be denied to you and you can do with it as you please. These digital cards are a sham. When blizzard decides to pull the plug on hearthstone (and one day they will) you will lose 100% of your investment. And that is important and you should take it to heart.
You children are blowing your financial future on RNG based digital gambling systems that have no value after your money is spent. You some lose your money for an insignificant amount of frustration online. And after you have sunk thousands of dollars ( on average $400+ an expansion) you are left empty handed while some fat cat with Activision stocks has turned your money into massive profits.
All loot box and RNG based online gambling systems are cancer and they are preying on the ignorance of a generation raised to be exploited by this machine. If we do not stand up to it now, All games will become pay to Win and will set you back a mortgage payment just to be competitive once a year. It's time to bring back honest pricing to an industry destroyed by greed.
Blizzard needs to go back to expansion based pricing. $50 for a new card set. Get every card. Offer in app purchases for custom card backs, more class characters, and make the freaking Dev team actually give us something for our money.

Wrathblade posted a message on Could Hearthstone Players on iOS Soon be Buying Dust Instead of Card Packs?Posted in: Newsi'm happy with the loot box fiasco because companies like EA and all triple gaming titles are all under the spot light it's a disgusting practice that should be stopped or regulated
I'm not a blizzard fan boy... they have been very stingy since beta that's when i first started... it's just after ungoro where they royaly stuffed up and segmented the community with have new mechanics(quests) vs the dont haves... they are making changes and it's a good step in the right direction. actual f2p models like hearthstone are awesome (they need a way to make money and get support for awesome content) because the start up costs are zero...
being f2p myself and decent in arena. i've farmed 55,000+ gold and 54,000+ dust the game doesn't block you out at all. my collection is fully maxed and it can be done... i love card games and it's the only one i played and stick 2 i've tried others but no long lasting.
extensive studies have already been done with the game we know the odds of the pity timer etc doesnt matter either way

robert_fanr posted a message on Could Hearthstone Players on iOS Soon be Buying Dust Instead of Card Packs?Posted in: NewsI think loot boxes are a huge scam in general .
It's the same principle as a slot machine . Makes people spent tons of money !
It would be a lot better if you could just buy the cards you want at a fixed price .
I know it's all random but when someone opens 3 legendary in a pack and I reach pity timer that's not fair right there !

Honestly if your not invested in wild your simply wasting time/money. Which ever your more invested in -

Ion: Ok Chadd...so we are gonna double down again on the direction of WoW because the player base doesn't know what fun is..
Chadd: ahh <Emails Ben> So what do you think of a +3 purple dragon in Hearthstone?
Ben: <Replys to Chadd> Your hired! Have you tried Purify in a deck yet? Ahhahahahahahahaha. (yes Ben types out the Laugh)

We finally get the golden version of this classic card

The "Meme" wagon deck.

On a side note I wish we could do pre-nerf matchups of different types. I would love to see how Pirate Warrior would match up to pre-heft Face hunter(some of the key cards were changed like going from a 2/1 to a 1/1, etc.). Damn that would be interesting...well to me that is.

Saw the Name and Pic on Hearthpwn and felt excited. I then read the details for the brawl...PASS.

An ordinary guy, Uther and Gul’dan having a good ol time with Printer RNG. "Fun and Interactive". XD

I'm awful with OTK Priest but this list is very enjoyably for me none the less. Thanks for your work!

The final boss fight will be versus Ben Brode and his fabled unicorn Priest deck.

I tend to because maybe that one win is what they need to complete that one quest which in turn gets then that pack with the legendary that helps them in motivation,etc.(I know that is a lot of ifs). Besides I have played since the start and can't get past rank 18 so I suck anyways, so meh.

I lost 3 games in a row at rank 25 with this deck on EU and got dropped to Legend NA. LUL
