A lot of people don't actually do the math, they just eyeball it. Reverse happens to me a lot, people think they have enough to kill me and just go for it... end up 2-3 short and then they die.

Im about to go crazy with the people who fumble through 3 cards until the timer is about to run out on every gd turn. Im not sure if there are people that are that stupid or if its a tactic to get me to rage (which works).
Seriously. Just noticed this myself tonight.... A string of players taking damn forever.

Really? Wtf are you playing a card game like this if you don't even put that small amount of thought into it?

it's a 3/2 that has a decent chance of killing your opponents 1 drops and some 2 drops, and/or dealing your opponent damage to boot. It also works really well with raging worgen, amani beserker, and acolyte of pain. What's not to like?
Guess I just hate the random factor of it to much

I really like a couple of the card reward mechanics. Getting all the pirates gives you a parrot card, all the Murlocs gives you a legendary Murloc. Curious to find out if there are others.

The way to think about the bomber is thatat worstit breaks even over the long term (i.e. it'll average 1.5 damage to your side and 1.5 to them) and it can be managed around to work better than that.

Anyone having DC issues today? It's really frustrating. I was 5-0 in the arena (first time even getting past 4 wins, but only my 5th draft) and then got DC 3 games in a row. The 5th win before that I got DC'd a milisecond after winning. The games I got DC'd in I was guaranteed to win.z Then 3 disconnects in a row during Ranked mode. The dumbest part is if you leave the game at the main screen you won't get DC ever, but 10 mins into a game? Cya! Unbelievably frustrating. zWhere is reconnect :/? On the plus side I got my first pack out of 15 that had more than just a rare in it, and it had Rare/Epic/Legendary. Yay. Anyone else sick of playing against the copy paste Hunter/Priest decks out there? Seriously people, make a new deck... I have no problem smashing them 95% of the time in 1Star Diamond (I know it's not the greatest), but still it's getting boring playing against the same thing every time.

Best moment in Hearthstone for me yet: Was going to probably lose a game, opponent had 3-4 decent creatures out, and I only had 1 small taunter that was preventing him from winning that turn. So he summons Deathwing and destroys all of his other creatures and my Mirror Entity copies Deathwing and I win

On that note, Golden Mirror Entity is by far the best golden in the game... take a look at it it's absolutely absurd, and then whenever you copy something you get to see the golden version of that. Gorgeous.

My favorite so far is a turn 3 win in arena with pally.

Put an Angry Chicken in my Priest deck for shits and giggles. Turns out it's pretty fucking good lol. You can enrage it easily yourself, and obviously buff the health enough to make it happen. It's good times.

Really enjoying Warlock now that I have a few cards (have only opened like 10-12 packs or so, whatever casual gold has allowed me. Have a Doomguard (5Mana, 5/7: Charge, Discard 2 Randomly and a Twisting Nether (8) Destroy all Minions, an Abomination (5) 4/4 Taunt, Deathrattle: Deal 2 damage to all minions and a Baron Geddon (7) 5/7: At the end of your turn, do 2 damage to ALL minions. I just play these cards + all the Warlock base set AoE's and it's pretty fun times.

Total AoE Cards:
x2 Dread Infernal (1)
x2 Hellfire (3)
x1 Abomination (2)
x1 Baron Geddon (2+2+2+2+2...)
x1 Twisting Nether (Destroy)

So much fun. Geddon doing damage the same turn you drop him is amazing. Combine that with cheap removal like Soulfire/Shadow Bolt/Demon Fire/Mortal Coil/Drain Life, which essentially all have +2 damage and it makes for such an easy time controlling the board. Just played a Priest in 2 Star Diamond game that was pretty tight but with me having the better tempo. I summoned Geddon on turn 7 and immediately he says "Thank You" 3 times, obviously being cocky about a next turn mind control. Then I just used Twisted Nether & lul'd. The best part is Geddon only being 7, and Voidwalkers 1, so you can summon both of them on the same turn, aoe everything, and the Voidwalker survives just enough to prevent Geddon from taking too much damage.

Only problem is learning when to stop with the crack that is the Warlock ability. Ran into fatigue for the first time today, ouch. Anyone else been doing any strange or unique decks for fun? It's difficult to do so without buying packs :O Never been so excited about opening commons in a card game before... Curious about a Geddon with a Rogue deck and Conceal? Would be very interesting. What's everyone's top 5-10 must have commons/rares all around to craft, usable in all decks? Crafted a Defender of Argus so far and Dire Wolf Alphas cos they are universally godly. What else?

Defender of Argus, Azure Drakes, Argent Commanders, Twilight Drakes, Knife Jugglers basically can find a use in any deck.

I've been experimenting with a weird "I hate minions" Mage deck. Runs a Doomsayer (2/0/7: at start of turn, destroy all minons), and a Wild Pyromancer (2/3/2: Every time you cast a spell, do 1 damage to all minions). Debating if I should keep screwing around with experimental decks or just play the ones I win with to get to Masters and then screw around, but at a higher level so if something works I know it is actually good and not just bad opponents.

I'm surprised at how fast the meta keeps shifting, if you look at the decks that win tournaments they are different every week.

Im enjoying a modified version of kripps paladin deck based on cixahs. I could really use a second sword of justice but it works really well. I switched out a couple cards to fit in harvest golems because they are durable enough to stand up to nova/consecrate etc. And they do well with the zerg swarm theme. Fun deck to play
