Love all the shit talking going on in here. Miracle is one of the most difficult decks to play correctly, hence it's popularity among pro players. It might not be insanely difficult to draw with an auctioneer, but knowing when to go all in and making the best out of bad draws is what makes it difficult and that happens more frequently than you would imagine. That is what divides a good player from a bad one.
Also, nothing is being rotated to wild until the first expansion of next year and nothing has been confirmed either. Sorry, but prep, ice block, innervate, auctioneer and even stonetusk boar are here for at least another 6 or so months. It is blisteringly obvious that miracles existence isn't going to push auctioneer out of standard. If it was, they would have rotated it last set. As is, people like playing miracle, blizz routinely releases a card or so every set that supports the archetype and rogue players are happy. Get over it. We all hate playing against certain things, you can't just go around deleting every card that sees play.

Its way more fun than no missions like ungoro and even more fun than frozen thrones missions. it is replayable. let us not bite the hand that feeds us, as those that giveth can taketh away.

Ironically I have only beaten king togwoggle... he did crazy things but other bosses have wrecked me faster. The azari guy has completely destroyed me... it's just luck I guess but he would mill the good cards and I'd be left with random junk. He also can go a bit crazy with the board as well... if you cannot tempo out to start with him you will lose.

I don't think they will.. i do predict a neutral card that will buff a weapon's attack you are using... otherwise the "durability" on half of the weapons is completely arbitrary as half of them don't have any attack.

anyone think we are going to get a mech, murloc, totem or pirate? We have seen beasts, demons, dragons, and elementals so far.

I agree people need to do this. I cannot myself as I have a very busy job in corporate america where I work long hours and have family obligations on the weekend and evenings. Hearthstone kind of fills the gaps for an hour at a time... planning one would require being around for 5 or 6 hours for a hearthstone only themed event. Maybe if nothing ever pops up I'd consider it, but i'd end up putting other obligations on the back burner like my career and family development.

People are annoyed because most players cannot get to a fireside gathering. I am an adult living in DFW texas and the closest gatherings to me are either in tyler, san antonio or houston which are all 2 - 5 hours away from where I am. DFW by the way is the 4th largest metroplex in the nation, and there isn't anything close by to even attend. So lets say everyone did drive to their "nearest" one... it would be so full you would not even get to play. There needs to be a better incentive for people to "create" tavern brawls, and a bigger incentive for people to "attend" one. This is a great step because at least it is some incentive, if I understand now there are 3 incentives for people to attend (this hero, a cardback, and the special brawls). There is an incentive for people to host with some swag. NOW, my argument is that there are not incentives to "host" and certainly still not enough to attend. The biggest incentive to attend is one nearby and on a day that is not a weekend so that you can attend and not upset the wife or family that you are out playing video games on a friday night. So how to fix the ability to attend is basically just make sure more exist, which is incentives to host. I think the big problem is that most businesses that would cater to this sort of thing would be comic book / collectible card stores and these places don't have an interest to host this event because the event would mean less people buying magic or pokemon cards or whatever. So the next best place to host is a coffee shop, but this has a problem too in that most people going to coffee shops are not hearthstone players they are teens hanging out, adults doing some work away from teh family, and college kids doing homework... I don't really know what the solution is, but it is just my take on the problem. I'm sure if enough incentives start to pile up, more events will happen... and then most of us will "consider" potentially attending one if it's only 20 minutes down the street. For those of you in far flung countries or rural america, i think you will forever be doomed to not attend one.

one shaman card left, and no totem revaled? totem hype!
