Hearthstone

Also bear in mind that "casual" mode is actually just unranked mode, so it's entirely possible to be shoved up against Legendary players who are tuning new decks. You're honestly better just going straight into ranked, especially past the first week of the month.

Lol omfg... talk about that "next fix". This game was insane. He got a Nat Pagle from a Shredder like 7 turns previous after I cast Elemental Destruction on an empty board vs his Shredder, Spellslinger & Silver Hand Knight. Pagle drew him like 6 cards and I thought I might be able to get a fatigue win, since this Shaman deck literally only has 2 minions with 6+ mana (a Kraken and a Fire Elemental). Then he casts a Spellslinger and I get Corruption vs his Confuse, I corruption the Sunwalker and then pass the turn. He spends the entire turn thinking and I am wondering if he has a Fireball & is just trolling me... the rope starts to burn and he casts Confuse and I confidently think I've won, and then SHIT I'm counting as fast as I can and see that he has exact lethal after casting the Confuse and I am panicking on whether he will have time to attack with everything or not before the rope burns.... Whelp, I won. I guess he wasn't as good at counting rofl.

So that "hit" will last me another 20 minutes while I fervently try to find my next fix and fuck up my "veins" in the meantime...

And Crone, it depends on what your expectations are and how you want to play the game. My gf started a little over 2 months ago and she's been around rank 13 for the last 2 months. She has bought 2 packs with RL money and owns Naxx and that's it. She plays every day, although I'm not sure that's a good thing, because she seems to get pissed off at the game just as much as I do. I don't think her pleasure is greater than her pain haha. But, she keeps playing, so whatever that means... So yeah, with Naxx you can get in the low teens, but don't expect much more. If you don't enjoy slowly building your collection and enjoy that for its own intrinsic reasons, I'd say you should stop playing before you become an addict like the rest of us. Don't try arena unless you are naturally very good at these games and you study up and/or spend RL cash to learn.

Good suggestions. I forgot about the arena ranking websites so I've blown my gold load on losing a bunch of arenas. Gotta build back up and will also get Naxx to help out. I don't mind at all being ranked in the low teens.

I just get frustrated at the game like most people here have said. For me it's not having decks that can reliably complete the dailies and so I feel gold locked.

Ill get there. I'll check hearthpwn again and see what basic decks I can find. Maybe searching for cheap decks is a better search term.

Edit:

http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks?filter-search=Basic&filter-build=24&filter-deck-tag=1&filter-class=512&sort=-rating

Filtered for search terms "basic" and for tgt launch so that the cards were hopefully updated if needed. Gonna try some of these out today.

Welcome to the Warlock Brawl I guess. So much for easy daily clearing.

Now, I suppose you don't need to go Warlock but the free minions are pretty damned nice!

Built a random Warlock deck for the brawl this time, played a flame imp turn 1. Opponent conceeded. See ya next brawl!

So I was wondering where all the crazy OP meta breaking Aviana decks are? Maybe they all streaked to top 100 legend so fast I never ran into any?

There's a lot of people using their normal netdecks for this brawl and getting very confused when I get a freebie. Can they not read or something?

Make Warlock deck, queue up for Brawl - Flame Imp, Tap, Zombie Chow -- Your Opponent Has Left.

I don't get it. First match was lock vs lock. He got 2 minions when he was losing, but when I was losing I didn't get any. Just more random BS.

The if you are losing by 3 health minion is not triggering all the time. I was down by 6 health and didn't get anything...

Brawl is easy to clean up with mega aggro face rogue. It just chews warlock up with them flame imping/tapping/dreadguarding themselves and shit. Usually have them dead like 4-5 before they even know what is happening.

You have to be losing bymore thanthree health too, not just three health or more.

Most of us said Aviana was shit. I was laughing when so many people were posting unrealistic fantasy scenarios to back up why several cards such as Aviana were amazing. Lul. There is one single Legend Aviana deck and the guy only did it from rank 5 to Legend.

The armor thing threw me for a loop; I experimented with bolster/armor on my f2p to try a controlled burst.

Luckily, some gold portrait tard played freeze mage and got wiped by an obese shade of naxxramus.

ScAmaz is the most annoying human on the planet.

It was sarcasm, I was one of the ones saying it was win more, someone here was talking about making a golden one as soon as launch, haha.
