Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft V4 - We're gonna be RICH!

[coup]

[QUOTE=Suakeli;50464304]Is it just or me have Arena gold rewards decreased a lot? I remember last 5 arena runs having a disappointing gold reward, the worst example was 190 gold, 80 dust and a freaking golden common (Flame Lance) from 11 wins.[/QUOTE]

It was decreased by 10 gold on average for most runs and you have a much higher chance to get a second pack now.

[QUOTE=Toyhobo;50466417]I thought blizzard said they didn't want their game to have classes who otk you from an empty board and yet frost mages are allowed to?[/QUOTE]

The deck gets to stick around because its actually a really, really niche deck. Like, it utterly crushes some matchups and [i]instantly loses versus Warrior[/i]. Its not a big enough problem of a deck to prompt Blizzard nerfing it.

Not to mention when Emperor rotates out the deck is going to get significantly weaker, if it even exists at all anymore at that point.

[QUOTE=Pythagoras64;50468376]Glad to know it's not just because I'm terrible (maybe). I'll just keep plugging away at it, and maybe some day I'll get out more than 150 golds worth of rewards.[/QUOTE]

Watch some videos from Kripp. He's an exceptionally good Arena player and while he isn't always right when it comes to advice, seeing him play and draft an Arena deck can help you understand what exactly it takes to consistently do well in Arena.

Also its fun to watch him get salty about RNG literally every game, even the ones hes crushing his opponent in.

God damnit, got my first legendary drop in arena and it's all shit (Mukla doesn't work that well on mage, but is definitely the best choice)

THE VERY NEXT SET OF 3

2 legendaries on a row is just weird rng ;_;

Should I save up my gold to buy adventure wings or just spend it all on Arena? I want to build up a good collection of cards and I don't want to spend too much money. Also, what do you guys think about buying classic/tgt packs over Arena runs?

i've been buying arena runs and not saving up for adventures for the last year and i'm not that much better at it, which you have to be if you want to get a lot of value out of arena

meanwhile, saving up gold for 2 adventure wings this last month completely revolutionized a good chunk of my decks because of how good the cards are. sucks that it's 700 gold, but it's a better investment

adventures imo

[ECS]

I wish removed adventures could be still purchasable with gold at a reduced amount since they are for wild mode only. I'm aware you can still get the rest of an old adventure if bought at least one wing.

[QUOTE=Sandvich9;50471334]Hemet to counter those Captured Jormungars, yo[/QUOTE]

I really should've done that, instead I went with anomalus cause I didn't get any board clears

[Lexi]

I feel like older adventures should be discounted by at least half, since Standard focused players don't have any use for it.

[Bordey]

[QUOTE=Lolkork;50477655]I think old adventures should be free but you get no cards from them.[/QUOTE]

Perhaps allow crafting the cards once you have finished the adventures as well, in case you wanna get them for wild mode

I think I've gotten Legendaries exclusively through Tavern Brawl packs at this point

Too bad I don't really have any decks for her. Do you need Big Tony for Freeze Mage? Maybe I could try that...

[Levelog]

You can't even buy the adventures that aren't in standard.

[PipAntarctic]

New brawl. Not a good one from what I have seen.

[U][B]"CLONEBALL"[/B][/U]
[I]"The legends of Azeroth are playing Cloneball! Your team is random legends, each cloned four times! Go get 'em champ!"[/I]

[B]Special Rules:[/B]
1. You have to just pick a class with this Brawl, because it has pre-made decks again.
2. Your decks consist of random legendaries, each cloned 4 times. You also have 0 Mana spells called '[B]Offensive Play[/B] - The next legendary you play and all other copies cost 3 less.', this card allows you to pump out your legendaries out faster. There are multiple copies of this card in your deck, and Offensive Play buff does stack.

Honestly Offensive Play is the core reason why this brawl will not be great. It's pretty much a coinflip, either you play a cheap legendary first or you die.

antonidas isn't needed in freeze mage, pyroblast is good at replacing him

but

freeze mage is garbage right now, it loses to shaman and zoo pretty fucking fast. They can typically get you very low way before you can ever set up a good freeze.
midrange hunter is also popular, so sticky minions + their hero power fuck you
nzoth paladin needs to be otk'd
warrior fucks you 100% now

freeze mage is a lot worse when you aren't playing a tournament, as you can't selectively ban decks

I got two Branns out on turn one and my opponent couldn't do anything else from there

Anyways, does anyone have any other suggestions for Alex if not Freeze Mage? I assume I can't just throw her into random midrange decks huh

[Purple Magpie]

She's used in control warrior, handlock I think, some Reno variants as well. She's a very strong card, she's just only used in generally expensive decks.

[PipAntarctic]

Alex is pretty-much useful only for combo decks or the decks mentioned above in this metagame (I don't see alot of Renolocks running Alex tho), and even then it's not that good as there are prentiful of Control Warriors on the ladder. As it is now, it's a very matchup dependent card (a control Warrior who has Alex and faces a mirror match makes Alex worse than if you'd face a druid or priest).

Yeah I really don't think I'd trade my Jarax for an Alex in my renolock. I've got pretty good board presence so with the exception of a priest or armor warrior I don't think using it offensively would ever happen. I've never lost to an armor warrior anyways. The only time I have to use jarax anyways is against a fatigue deck to give me a health boost and I'd much rather have the weapon and ability to spawn 6/6's than Alex on the board.

[meppers]

you know those free card pack codes that come with other blizzard games?

blizzard upped the account limit from 5 codes to 15 codes.

so go dig out your extra codes.

Any tips? I've won four out of my five games with it but I've somehow only fought control decks so I don't think that's a great sample

[editline]8th June 2016[/editline]

And one of those decks was a Warrior who played Harrison into my Jaraxxus weapon and fatigued himself so it was a really bad sample

does it really need both c'thun and n'zoth? i mean, especially with such few cards that work for either

[Cesakich]

C'Thun really only needs the two for Vek'Lor

I had it in my head that deathrattles woulds just naturally come in as I was building it only to realize I only put in Sylvanas

The thing is though that just getting Sylvanas back is really good so I've left N'Zoth in

I guess I could replace Elise with like and infested Tauren or a harvest golem or something, the she doesn't contribute much when my control matchup already seems so good

I should probably get Cairne at some point

[Ricenchicken]

favorite combo to get with new brawl:

*whinnies*

[The Dovahneer]

so you guys check out the latest brawl? its a bit ridiculous and pretty fun
also a great way to earn gold because matches are pretty quick

[Levelog]

Had first hogger out turn 2, second out turn 3. There's no winning against that.

[editline]10th June 2016[/editline]

Also fizzlebang in this gamemode with warlock.

[Ricenchicken]

This is the funnest tavern brawl, 76 wins lol :v: and probably like 50~ losses

[Sector 7]

is it just me or are there no class legendaries in this brawl
