"I am glad Reno soon is gone because it at least removes the biggest rng in the game."
I think you are confusing Reno with Yogg.
1. Yeah but see we wouldn't want new players to be confused and frustrated by their opponent's health suddenly going up or their board being cleared because of things like spell, or, overall, control cards. No, we better stick to our guns and make sure that the game is straightforward : If you can use all your mana and send everything face, then you progress toward a win at a steady pace. That is the essence of a strategy game, that the best approach is the simplest one, and that at no moment you can be punished for any decision you make. Now of course we're not against some shenanigans every now and then, like killing a Doomsayer, despite it not having taunt ! Most players would think attacking it is a waste because of this, but hey, there has to be a way good players can distinguish themselves, right ?
2. Yeah but where do you fit Worgen Greaser if more cards in the set need to be playable ? See, that's where your idea falls short. Also, how do we make cards playable without them being broken ? You can see the bind we're in. Like, any time we make a card playable to try and promote a fun and interactive archetype like pirate warrior or aggro shaman, people say it's broken, but then when we make a card that's not broken, it doesn't see play ! Madness ! It's like there's some imaginary state of balance when a card is neither unplayed nor broken, but that's a dilusion shared amongst new players !
you made some really good points @Komorebi3. its like people forget all the chanting they did before about " OMG blizz buff pirates!" or "wheres the good pirates blizz?!" i remember this site was full of those types of posts. And if pirates werent strong rn people would say Blizz didnt do anything.
This game can play 9 hero
But i only can see 5 hero
Only 5 class... Sorry Blizzard but this shows your card balancing is sucks. 4 class +unplayed natural cards and other unplayed class cards are like %60 of the whole game. Sorry but i never saw a game has %60 unused content. You cant just describe it with meta, Fun cards, balancing cards and low synergy card can be %20-30 so you can play with every deck as competetive but if you cant play %60 of all card it means your developers are not doing their jobs.
I'm sorry but there needs to be more decks in major tournament formats. Constricting it to so few decks just forces players to play the pirate aggro theme repeatedly. Either that or they need to acknowledge that pirate package is to broad in its availability.
Go Priest, Hunter, Druid and Paladin....4 classes not represented, good job Blizz
Let us wait for the doping control...
Congrats !!..
Even no Priests and Druids..
The feel when Pavel conceded to me few days ago. Forgive me Pavel for i have sinned, but you gave me only 1 card pack.
Mage, Rogue, Shaman, Warlock, Warrior. 5/9 classes represented.... rip. not even a priest. So much for drakonid operative if priest never lives to it.
pavel kawaii des fuck all the haters
aesthetic pavel is skilled, thx 4 the 6 packs m8
Wow, braindead aggro decks in tournaments! Whining control players on the Internet forums are still the best. Kappa
Just because a pro player play those broken decks doesn't mean that those decks aren't brainless... They use it because are effective or to counter another deck.
Please, KYS to make hearthstone great again, we don't need more retards in this game.
Just because the great players like you don't play those broken decks doesn't mean that those decks are brainless... We use it because are effective or to counter another deck.
Pavel man!! I trusted in you!! Russia only forward!!
*Wins the tournament* Zero fucks given...
Honorable player won once more!
Pavel did it again!
