Hearthstone - That other, other, other Blizzard game

getting the beta installed now

Someone needs to get on blizzardā€™s case #putshazbotinhearthstone

The patch isnā€™t up in NA yet? Youā€™re going to have a pleasant surprise if youā€™re not a Druid or control Warlock.

Damn the day i wanna download this shit its 2 hr maintenance.

Any tips before I dive into this? I have basic ccg knowledge.

Be prepared for a casual, highly interactive, fun ccg experience, but expect to get upset that you donā€™t have the shiny cards immediately

yeah it got delayed, its going up today in NA

I also really wanna make hunter work with a beast deck. I got my second Earth Elemental though, so now my elemental shaman deck is pretty solid (2x earth, 2x unbound, 2x fire)

The new hunters are wrecking the fuck out of my old Rogue deck, sad to see one card invalidating an entire deck but I guess Iā€™m heading back to the drawing board.

Or you could just play a little differently, right? Maybe getting 7 minions out vs hunter is no longer a good idea

I also had a golden abusive sergeant, 400 dust woot. At about 1k dust now, almost enough to craft a legendary Iā€™m missing

I think Blizzard is batshit crazy for trying to continuously patch this card game. DO WHAT WOTC DOES AND RELEASE A NEW SET. HAVE A STANDARD, MODERN, LEGACY.

For the love of christ if they constantly nerf, un-nerf, nerf, then un-nerf again, they are going to give us a collective conniption fit! The game cannot be perfect. Just

Itā€™s almost as if its aā€¦ beta or something huh?

I bet they keep it going after launch. Kinda like with WoW; class structure was always up in flux

Yeah Itā€™d be nice if that was the problem but the thing is that Iā€™m only having 2-3 minions out at a time but I still end up getting consistently out-traded in cards, not sure how Iā€™m going to tackle this.

Yeah I ended up with 3 extra defender for an easy 300 dust, by the way thanks for mentioning that.

Dude how do you get so many fucking dusts? I rarely see you play lol. You play in the morning?

With them giving you full dust for disenchanting a card that recently got changed, I donā€™t mind them patching. Though this is only if they release new cards within a reasonable time frame. I donā€™t want to see a year or so of a buff/nerf cycle between the same small card pool.

Iā€™m sure theyā€™ll at least have a new set sometime after beta ends and im pretty sure theyā€™ll continue patching in this manner.

Iā€™ve spent 60 dollars in packs over the games life. I also dont disenchant until they patch the cards. I got 400 off abusive and a pyroblast. I just didnā€™t want the pyroblasr anymore lol. So thatā€™s 800 right there

And yes I play at like 7 am PST and like 4 pm too

I disenchant everything that gets patched, unless itā€™s like a card that I couldnā€™t live without.

I actually disenchant just about everything, since I pretty much do nothing but arena.

I enjoy constructed since the seasons, I havent touched Arena

I use constructed to get arena gold if I lost all my gold on a few unlucky runs (ever run into 3 games where every turn they have perfect answers for you and always have the magical 2for1?)

Glad that the patch FINALLY went live, I swear every day this week they had the maintenance message but never the patch.

It was REALLY annoying running into the cards that were going to be nerfed (esp warlock imps) and then thinking ā€œyeah fuck you card tier whore, enjoy the patchā€

Iā€™m about to go on a disenchant frenzy. Iā€™m a few dust shy of 1k. Gonna get myself an orangeā€¦
