Started playing it finally.
Seems ho-hum and get bored from losing time on watching animations. Played the first 5 games, unlocked hunter, kept with same deck and started against warrior-or whatever's next in line. Turned it off at like turn 3. 50% chance I'll never play it again.
A turn based game that requires one to be online and times out in single-player? No thanks. If baby cries, I don't want to return to the log-in screen.

May I suggest a good book instead?

Promptly disenchanted my regular one because golden ones hit harder.

LOL

It's not a single player game in any sense.

Saw legendary particles: So excited.

Saw Al'akir: So unhappy.
Al'Akir might not be the best Legendary but he's actually starting to see a lot of play in Shaman decks. Shaman have some amazing burst potential and having a minion come preloaded with Charge and Windfury opens up some really powerful combos. Toss on a couple of Rockbiters and he can do a crap ton of damage.

Actually the weird thing is how many people play Al'Akir without playing Rockbiter. Seen it a ton of quite a few streams.

Strange, I just had a Hunter concede on like turn 4. I had an Armorsmith and two other minions down. I used Whirlwind, which gave me three armor and he just tapped out.

I personally got hit with the endless turn one. When they are almost dead they use something to make their turn infinite until you just quit or time out. This happened Friday night twice and Saturday three times to me.

I would say its a bug but with the people always taunting and it always happening near the end when its a for sure loss = exploit. I havent looked at ownedcore or the blizz hack sites, gonna check it out.
That's not a hack though - and as an exploit I've only seen it occur once and clearly by accident. (It was like Turn 8 and they were ahead in position although it wasn't game over for me at the time either)

There's been a ton of "unlikeliness" I'd love to chalk up to hacking though, but without evidence I'm leery to support stating it as fact - but damned if things don't feel "off" quite often in how often a "OK, they lose unless they manage to draw X unlikely card" cases come up where they draw exactly that card, or series of cards occurs.

I assume this was in ranked constructed, and not Arena?

If so, That's really not that strange if he's playing UTH.
If his card draw was terrible for 4 rounds, then sometimes it's better to just concede the quick game instead of forcing a longer game the hunter probly lost anyway.

He can pick up the loss pretty quickly.
