Dirty Rat is the MVP. It sucks that it costs 400 dust to craft it, but it's worth it.

In what kind of deck do you use this?

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #546 on:** December 06, 2016, 09:22:25 AM »

Reno Priest or Warlock.

In a control matchup, you use it to pull out cards like Reno/Jarraxxus or anything with a strong battlecry. Denying it's use to the opponent. You just have to make sure you have an answer if you pull out something strong like Rag or Ysera.

In aggro matchup, you save it until the opponent is top decking or has a few cards left. It's a pretty annoying taunt for them to bypass when they are trying to close the game out.

Buncha classic cards going to wild after the next rotation. Kinda surprised to see Ice Lance here.

Also adventures are done, which is kinda disappointing, though I'll never have enough dust to beat all the heroic challenges anyway. Three 130 card xpacs a year now.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #555 on:** February 17, 2017, 01:53:21 AM »

1. No more adventures is a fail imho, it was fun SP content and some cards everyone could get.

2. Banning classic cards is a fail imho, as it is a common thing that everyone could strive for and should be the base of the game.

3. 3 expansions per year is a lot maybe? why not a bit less but more tweaks to the meta on the go...

seagrams hotsauce · « **Reply #556 on:** February 17, 2017, 02:00:03 AM »

They have to ban/nerf classic cards, or give HS a perennial set. I have zero issues with the nerfs, tho I'm sad I can't get stb value anymore. I'll adjust. Hopefully we see some stronger 2-turn options next xpac

seagrams hotsauce · « **Reply #557 on:** February 17, 2017, 02:01:47 AM »

Also hoping the 3 xpacs x yr swing the meta a lot more

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #558 on:** February 17, 2017, 02:02:05 AM »

stb?

It seems like they banned a lot of card slower decks needed... just going to make the meta even more about turn 1. It's ridiculous really.

There is no point at all at the moment to play a slow deck in standard, and thats the only thing I ever play.

Instead of nerfing rush shit decks they are doubling down on that being the only meta.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #559 on:** February 17, 2017, 02:08:04 AM »

For the casual player I think classic was something you could safely invest in, that's what I did at least, but now it feels thats not the right way to go.

seagrams hotsauce · « **Reply #560 on:** February 17, 2017, 03:05:23 AM »

Smalltime Buckaneer

TBH I dont think any of these besides AD make a huge difference besides that Rag doesn't swing shit anymore

seagrams hotsauce · « **Reply #561 on:** February 17, 2017, 06:00:28 AM »

I'm pretty happy that 'years' are rotating out but I dunno about scrapping basic cards. Why bother committing to Classic at all? I get that they're trying to route casual play into ranked but that shit still isn't fun

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #562 on:** February 17, 2017, 08:40:24 AM »

It just feels cheap, why even bother building up your classic collection if Blizzard can just nuke it from orbit.

You now have to be on board of the latest xpac every time to be competitive, and also only if you dumb ass aggro.

I keep playing this dumb shit regardless but its like a pachinko machine really.

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #563 on:** February 17, 2017, 04:27:05 PM »

It's a catch-22 for this game. You want to collect (and play) cards that are versatile and powerful, but if Blizzard allows them to be around forever, then you will never play anything else. Unless Blizzard purposely powercreeps cards to make you choose them instead. But then that opens another whole can of worms of balance issues.

I like Rag, Sylvanas and Drake, but I don't want to feel compelled to keep putting them into Standard decks in 2019.

Retiring them to Wild is a better solution than nuking them from ever seeing play again (like they did to Molten Giant and a few Druid cards last year).

MMaRsu · « **Reply #564 on:** February 20, 2017, 12:59:13 PM »

I tweeted Ben Brode why they cant move reno to classic

He was like the game is changing too slow or something I dunno some bs :p

seagrams hotsauce · « **Reply #565 on:** February 20, 2017, 06:24:17 PM »

I'm pretty sure they've said they're not gonna print more Reno cards and they're trying to shift away from having deck archetypes that last as long, so I don't see why they'd keep it around.

So you can use the cards when it's possible to use the cards. You played with your Classic cards, yes?

Blizzard is pretty upfront about this game not being a CCG. If you choose to believe you're collecting anything in it, that's your prerogative of course, but it's not one rooted in much reality.

Ungoro is almost here. 3500 gold already waiting

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #568 on:** April 03, 2017, 03:25:45 PM »

The new arena has really eaten into my gold savings. Only 2500 this time. Usually I'm sitting on 4000.

I'll have a bunch of dust to craft things though. Sitting on 3500 and will be getting that sweet HOF dust.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #569 on:** April 03, 2017, 03:42:21 PM »

Got about 3k dust too,plus yeah all that HOF dust will be sweet

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #570 on:** April 04, 2017, 09:57:44 AM »

I had insomnia last night and played too much HS.

I've picked up aggro Shaman in the past week, just because I've run out of fun decks to play. It absolutely destroys Pirate Warriors, Jade Druid and Rogues. Currently at Rank 7, the earliest I've ever gotten this high. I beat a pro player (Naiman) last night during my climb.

I'm hoping to go balls out and see how far I can go with this broken deck before the rotation hits.

I'm kind of concerned this deck will still be really good, even if Trogg/Totem Golem get removed. You only really need to find a replacement for Golem. Trogg can be replaced by an argent squire.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #571 on:** April 04, 2017, 01:18:13 PM »

i hate aggro decks

ruins the fun

guilty pleasure is the shaman murlock deck though..

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #572 on:** April 04, 2017, 04:41:37 PM »

I feel like after this expansion there will be more tools than ever to deal with early aggro. So, it's really on the player if they want to include them. Kind of limits deck building when you have to include those cards just to survive, but at least the options are there.

I think that's part of the reason why Shaman was so popular. It was the most versatile class in dealing with all kinds of decks.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #573 on:** April 07, 2017, 02:32:20 AM »

Opened 45 packs, got one leg only, elemental shaman :'(

Crafted the shaman quest myself and got stomped by quest hunter and jade druid

With no dragons and no reno, I doubt priest is still fun. New Priest cards also sucks so I used all my 600 dust and crafted a bunch of elemental minions and legys and the shaman quest :p

I think deathrattle priest could be cool

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #578 on:** April 07, 2017, 01:35:15 PM »

I opened 45 and only got Hemet. Ugh. I had a ton of epics though.

I crafted that new Rogue quest and started to play it. It's kind of broken, but can be countered.

I'm currently rank 4, so it's really a bad spot to be experimenting with new decks.

MMaRsu · « **Reply #579 on:** April 07, 2017, 01:52:53 PM »

So hows the lore with the new cards? So far a lot of them seem made up and not based on any wow stuff.

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #580 on:** April 07, 2017, 03:58:28 PM »

They dropped the "Heroes of Warcraft" tag recently from the game so they could have more freedom in creating their own characters.

Starting next expansion, they are going to be having free Single Player content with every release. Which will build more stories behind their characters. They'll probably have recurring characters like they did with Elise this set.

MMaRsu · « **Reply #581 on:** April 08, 2017, 07:17:47 AM »

Heh. Oh well, the new expack seems like total garbage to me.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #582 on:** April 09, 2017, 01:21:43 AM »

Its a cool expac but I wasted like 5000 dust making the Murloc quest card + finja and the druid quest card. Both suck!

The two legendaris i got are for the elemental shaman deck which is decent at least and got
me to 13.

So pissed I wasted so much dust on crap.

The more I play the more I like the expansion. They did a great job designing the elementals. They all feel pretty good and there are enough of them you can build some interesting decks.

It does suck about the costs of those quests. I crafted Rogue Quest on day one, but I find it pretty dull. Either it works and you cheese a win, or you have a handful of crap cards and no way to win.

I played a lot of Arena over the weekend. Had some great runs (11 wins twice, 10 wins twice and 9 wins three times). Envenom weapon for Rogues is RIDICULOUS in Arena. The tempo swing is just too much when you can trade 6 health to kill a huge taunt.

seagrams hotsauce · « **Reply #586 on:** April 11, 2017, 10:11:49 AM »

I'm really not enjoying the quest aspect. Exodia Mage and the Rogue quests seem to make up 75% of my opponents. Exodia mage is particularly frustrating as you can't really do anything. Ratting out and killing an apprentice only to see four of them pop up on the board next turn anyway is maddening.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #587 on:** April 11, 2017, 11:24:20 AM »

At least the mage takes so long to get going you can kill him, rogue can have 5/5 minions by turn 5 like

Anyhoo made it to rank 10 with my elemental shaman

Really good xpac so far

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #588 on:** April 12, 2017, 08:31:32 AM »

I got tired of beating my head at rank 4. So I switched to Wild. It's fun until you get to rank 8-9. Then it's just an endless stream of tryhards and aggro decks.

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #592 on:** May 02, 2017, 02:31:03 PM »

I made it to rank 1 and then slipped all the way back to rank 4. It was too discouraging, so I gave up.

One day ...

I haven't really found a deck that clicks with me yet. Quest rogue, different variants of Paladin, Mage, Taunt Warrior. Kind of dull. I want to try a heavy control Shaman, but I can't afford it yet.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #593 on:** May 03, 2017, 02:08:33 AM »

Dropping from 1 to 4 must have been rough, how many stars do you need that high up?

Just play pirate warrior, you've got 11 months til it rotates out and you can probably smorc your way to legend. Or just flip between token shaman/freeze mage

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #598 on:** May 08, 2017, 11:57:48 AM »

I think I'll be able to get there with (slower) mid-range Paladin. It doesn't really have any lopsided matchups in the current meta.

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #599 on:** May 08, 2017, 02:04:44 PM »

Vicious Syndicate definitely thinks it's the strongest deck in the game.
