This is what I want ....you don’t need 75 seconds to play any turn in this game. 20 second turn mode.....rank 5 and log off that much faster.
This is really funny........won’t ever happen.
If I remember correctly, a few months ago, I read about the devs mentioning coming changes to the system.
- More economical was the term used. acquiring the packs and unpacking being more "fun". For me this implies changes in the dusting and crafting of cards. Also they may be also changing matchmaking system again and the modify the chances of getting duplicates, epic and legendaries when unpacking.
Nozdormu mode, no more fucking roping
i really wish the new game mode is an 8 player real time draft, tournamenty-ish format
i was just randomly pressing buttons on my phone after i finished a game and my screen bugged out and this popped up. idk if this is a new thing or not but i figured id share it anyways
it would let me drag the scroll thing left and right but i couldnt close it and had to close hearthstone because it was bugged out
if the image didnt upload here is a link that might work. https://ibb.co/GsWQxCf couldnt figure out how to upload images on this site lol
I believe this is something they use to buy cards in China... Something to do with getting rid of the gambling aspect of opening cards packs
"System Revamp" = Three more deck slots
Also Tesla report for third-quarter results. A busy day indeed!
Hoping for that "Achievement Sistem" (WoW like) they were talking about. I am waiting for something like that since 2015.
Good this entire game and especially paladin, priest & Druid needs a complete overhaul and nerfing. ITS SO BROKEN
I am afraid of that system revamp thing...
I’m not the entire game needs an overhaul 3 specific classes that need a complete nerfing
System revamp is about new economy, replacing current daily quests+daily wins with a battlepass
They are the ones who changed the duplicate rule when opening packs - you can get the full F2P set (all rares) in about 65 packs now right?
They are the ones the introduced Battlegrounds, that makes the turn timer in constructed unbearable, and the gameplay feel slow and tedious, especially with any outplaying of opponents being undone with RNG and random crap, and swing turns up the ass and insane endless value generation making your ability to play the game as it once was (resource management) irrelevant.
The main game needs an overhaul, to make it fun to play again- whether thats as basic as a new ladder/grind system, a new game mode, or more fundamental changes (like the turn timer) or some kind of combination, it needs something.
[]
A system revamp has me extremely skeptical.
For me personally, it boils down to how effectively I can continue playing as a F2P player. Right now, I feel I can function 100% effectively as F2P. However, if for example they made it easier to obtain cards/packs from older content, effectively giving players access to more cards overall, but at the cost of making it more difficult to obtain the most current/new cards/packs, then that would hurt my ability to continue as a Free to Play.
Generally speaking, within I'd say within 2 weeks of new content being released, I have obtained most of the cards I require to remain competitive. The few I lack I can generally craft with dust. Once I've made the transition to crafting cards with dust to build the specific decks I need to remain competitive, I begin saving my gold for the following expansion. I like being able to open between 50-60 packs from gold so I can get myself a good start on what I might need. This is a relatively easy and obtainable goal per expansion. Of course, once I've reached this point and have obtained most or all the cards I require, the value of those packs diminishes greatly. In simple terms, the older the pack, the less valuable it is (for me).
Also, because I'm completely a standard player, I dust my entire Wild collection every time it rotates out. This has given me an abundance of dust, nearing 100,000. This gives me plenty of wiggle room to craft the cards I need to be both competitive and to experiment with random ideas.
So, a major revamp has me extremely wary. If the route they go makes it more difficult to obtain the newest cards without spending cash, then my time playing the game is probably limited.
100k dust? Kinda sus
Not when you've been playing since beta and don't bother crafting every competitive deck but rather just one or two per expansion. We're talking literally years of saving. Kinda hard not to have that much dust when you've been playing that long.
I have 80k+ dust plus a bunch of extras of cards I anticipate could be nerfed on my main account. I also have a f2p account that has 60k+ dust. Just do your dailies relentlessly and it's easy to get there. Occasionally when I'm super bored, I knock out the weekly Tavern Brawl/dailies on my Europe and Asia regions and both have 70+ unopened packs from assorted sets and 15k+ gold.
I've been playing since 2015 without missing dailies so that helps.
