To reply to the Coin question, I like turn 3 Chillwind Yeti's. If I have Yeti and Coin in my hand that is usually the play I will try to go for. Then again, I pick Blood Knights over Avenging Wraths in Arena so, you know, I'm kind of an idiot.

Druids can have such strong starts. Turn 1 coin+Innervate into Yeti, turn 2 Innervate into Yeti. Sure his hand his empty, but by the time I stabilize I'm dead.

So I'm sticking to just wins that give me gold this season (so 30 wins/day). Got up to rank 16. My understanding is that it takes around 400 wins to hit legendary, assuming you're win rate is high enough to get there. So we'll see how it works out.

I'm also rotating decks. I have eight decks (I can't make a Rogue deck I'm happy with) that I am cycling through.

I refuse to play a slow deck until im rank 6 or lower, so just doing the reynad warrior thing until then, then probably switch to a druid, or maybe the warlock brew that strifecro was using, which I really like, it takes advantage of void terror to cannibalize either ancient watchers or power overwhelmed stuff, doesn't rely on giants or tapping on turn 2 and 3.

This is pretty good:

Legendary Craft Guide by jihgfee

I have 440 arena wins and from all those packs I have been able to craft 2 Legendaries and have the following in total:

Ragnoros (crafted)
Ysera
Bloodmage Thalnos (crafted)
Leeroy Jenkins
The Black Knight
Gruul
Alexstrasza
Cenarius
Grommash
King Krush
Old Murkeye (crafted)

Just need Cairne, Sylvanas and Tinkmaster Overspark and I'll feel complete. Not bad. Anyone else have some statistics on how many legendaries you have based on how much arena you've played? Curious about the luck. Based on an average win rate of 5.5 (guesstimate of my entire arena career) I have opened 80 packs. Of those I opened 9 legends (1 duplicate). What have they said the average is? how many packs per legend? I think I've been quite lucky tho.

Odd bug just now - probably just something glitching with my client - but opponents plays kept showing up as something else for like a second then flashed into something else. Battlecries for the stuff that had Battlecries were always with what was the "final" thing though. First time I really wish I was recording it was really damn weird. (Note: He probably was legit - if it was a hack the stuff he chose to hack was often worse than the initial "flash" would've been him making it worse for himself if he was doing it himself)

At least once one creature showed up as a Pyroblast for a second - a Pyroblast image on a 0/0 creature. Heh. And mind you he was a Shaman.

Reporting the weirdness to Blizz since I'm sure it's a graphic/client bug.

Fuck it makes me rage when you run into shit like Al'Akir then Ysera in arena in games you easily had in hand. Not only that, but Ysera first card Ysera Awakens against your full board.

I've been playing a variant of this, black knight swapped for cairne, owl for spellbreaker and farseer for sap. It's the most fun I've had in hearthstone.

That doesn't seem that different from what all the Chinese guys who play Rogues like to run. In my experience it doesn't do well on the NA ladder. In tournaments Rogues are a pretty good deck.

Ran into the same situation twice today. Someone plays Ysera. MC it. They Dream Ysera back to my hand, but it doesn't make it all the way there and covers up my life total. Rest of the game I can't play Ysera, move the card, or see my life total. I won both games, but it was still irritating.

I had a game today where I put out a turn 1 hogger, the other guy quit instantly.

This game is bugged to shit since the reset.

That bug where your cards cover other cards in your hand so you can't play them is worse then ever. I would get that one out of 30 games now I get it all the time.
I just lost 3 games, because I couldn't play the cards I needed too because of that stupid bug.

Also there is some strange thing with secrets.

I played a misdirection, and a explosive trap. I had a counter secret played against explosive trap so I lost it, but the misdirection card also went flying back into my deck.

So my opponent plays his minion against me thinking there is no secret, but misdirection fires off, and his minion hits him.
Then I had a copy of misdirection in my deck that I got to play again.

So not only was my secret active on my hero without the "?" mark being present, but I got a free copy of it tossed back into my deck.

I feel like if you freeze the opposing hero it should prevent them from using their hero ability the following turn.
