Same on those 3. Really exactly the same picks and 1 pack.

But now I got RDU. And he got me 2 packs already. Never been so lucky :)

For winter HTC I voted for DocPwn and got 3 packs! Every other time I've gotten 1 pack.

"Every Rogue is running The Caverns Below. If only that nerf was hitting prior to the event!"

And you have to read people saying the card don't need a nerf...

I think if Blizzard release a neutral minion 1 mana battlecry "You win the game" many people posting here will say don't need nerf.

and yet the majority of them all lost while Pirate Warrior and Discover mage keep on chugging along. The fact that there are multiple decks that are faster at winning over crystal core says a lot for the current meta.

It's a high skill-cap deck, which is good for competitive play. The deck has been second or third tier on ladder since the set launched precisely because it is too difficult for casual players to pilot effectively - hence, why so many people think that the card doesn't need to be nerfed. The entire issue is interesting, and complex. Pretending otherwise, and painting all those who disagree with your own position on the issue as fools, isn't helpful, and only displays your own lack of interest in understanding some of the fundamental tensions which exist in the game with respect to casual vs competitive play.

The 1 pack crowd are punished for picking the most popular guy without taking into account decklists and lineups. How typical :)

As of now, he's in the process of losing. This comments section doesn't sound too happy with him either
