They should let players pick. Forcing it to the new shit is retarded for new players.

Probably the picking thing was causing them UI issues - but that doesn't stop them from doing something like letting you "Dust" GvG packs into some currency that can be used to buy Expert packs at a 1:1 ratio though.

A toggle on the Arena hero select screen would make the most sense. But knowing them, they're either never going to give you a choice, or finally fold to popular demand sometime in 2016.
Building my collection via Arena is what I enjoyed about this game. Now I'll have absolutely no way to get old cards?

With dust? I mean you'll need GvG cards too. I'm at the point where most of my packs are 5 cards that get dusted, and I don't arena regularly so most of my gold just comes from dailies and the rare occasions when I put my nose to the grindstone and actually grind ranked matches.
All I can think of is they think the power creep is so high on the xpac set combined with the nax set that barely any of the older cards other then the class specific cards will be used.
Or they are just lazy...

Who posted that spell damage Druid about a week back? Just used two +7 Moonfires to kill one Priest. And the next game: Pass, Wild Growth, Twilight Drake, Innervate Innervate Alexstraza, to kill another Priest.

So sick of all the fucking Hunters. I'm playing deathrattle Priest which "counters" the current Hunter decks but it's not a hard counter. In fact games are rarely close. I either get steam rolled or I stop them cold. There's no in between.
That is kind of how Priest always works. Priest has really strong answers to specific situations, but you need to have those answers in hand. If you do, usually you just win from there. You have to think of counters in terms of percentage of wins. I think of a hard counter as anything above a 75% average winrate.

Been seeing a lot of combo Druids out there. Usual suspects with Shade of Naxx, Violet Teachers, Auctioneers, Force + Roar. I've seen the exact same netdeck a few times now. Someone was either streaming it or just won a tournament with it I'm guessing.

It took more than a year to implement a spectator mode, let's not get crazy here.

Sjow has been running miracle druid on and off for like a week now and doing pretty well with it.

I hate that there isn't win streaks past 5. I've not played much on ranked, lately, but I know I was on a streak when I hit 5 and am halfway through 4. Could be 3 with streak. I mean, since the matchmaking doesn't pair up against rank and uses a hidden mmr they might as well leave streaks all the way to legend.
