Hearthstone - That other, other, other Blizzard game

A generic card that kills secrets is going in all of my decks. Every single one.

Fuck secrets.

Fought a priest with 5 health to go (bad luck, drew all my high value cards at the start). Priest has a few weak minions on board, including Zombie Chow, and I just put a couple Sludges out.

He decides to put the Priest 4-mana card that turns healing to damage, and Shadow Pains his own Zombie Chow. GGPO.

Not experienced, is this normal? Never seen it before or since

Hungry robo-crab?

I’ll add a story since I just finished my dailies.

Ran into the most annoying Priest ever. He used shit like Shieldbearer, Goldshire and Lightwell and just sat on Taunts forever and did nothing to push the board. It’s funny because I actually ended up plussing off of his Lightwell thanks to Northshire. When he dropped his own, I got rid of it and kept plussing. I also used Thoughtsteal twice and had a hand full of Sen’jin and Power Word: Shield. I eventually won easy but it took WAY longer than it had to.

For my dailies though, ran 7-1 with my Priest on ranked, only losing to Hunter because not having Cabal Shadow Priest is killing me in that matchup. REALLY tempted to dust my Golden Cairne to get two Cabal and fill out on Azure Drake. But if I do then I lose all chance at Sylvanas…and I also just generally like Cairne. It’s a dilemma.

I’ll definitely be using those in my decks. Secrets are fun to play, I do play a paladin secret deck (though paladin secrets are cuddly and nonoffensive…or am I biased?). However they can be very annoying to play against.

Oh, is there a specific site that any of you like to go to for Hearthstone? Wouldn’t mind increasing my knowledge a bit more if I’m diving into Constructed.

you’ll hate yourself forever if you dust your golden cairne for cabals. Not even a option lol

This is a common priest strat. It’s a lot of damage :frowning:

I like http://www.hearthpwn.com/

Easy to use with decklists at the front sorted by popularity. Good to start with, but the forums are garbage.

@Saitsuā€Œ don’t dust cairne. He’s too useful in too many decks, even though right now he’s a little slow. Just keep saving for cabal! As soon as I crafted 2 of them, I got one in my next pack.

Also, useful sites include: blizzpro, liquidhearth, and the CompetitiveHS sub reddit.

Now that I’m thinking of it… Cabal may be even more effective stealing some of those high value mechs…

yo is there a hearthstone section in srk forums? awesome

add me to the list. I’m at work atm so I’ll look into this stuff more and try to help out where I can if I can.

for now: my battle.net is Santaclaus#2785 (if i remember correctly, I will check when I get home just to be sure)

That moment when you play Priest, and you have this grand plan to heal your units and set up your next turn, but instead you change your healing to damage BEFORE playing Circle of Healing…

Thats just style, he coulda just ran his zombie chow into your sludge belcher without the shadow word pain, He was just showing off : )

Opened a legendary from a pack yesterday! I was playing freeze mage on iPad and having a lot of fun, though without alex Im forced to rely on giants/drakes for 15 points of damage. What legendary did I get? King Mukla lol. It might come in handy for a GvG mill deck, Mukla into Clockwork Giant OP.

I actually really like the freeze mage, its fun to play, though Im sure its annoying as hell to play against

Well since I need Naxx wings it’s going to be a LONG while before I have enough dust for Cabal.

Can you not afford the $20 for Naxx? I guess since the first wing isnt free its a bit more now though? Its really not a bad deal

At the moment actually…I cannot. Otherwise I would just get it over with.

But…I guess that’s the best plan. Just wait to get money to open the wings and keep grinding Arena.

better play it safe and just do your quests everyday save up the money and open up naxxramas. the naxx cards are too good to wait to long or risk losing money instead of gaining it in arena (seeing as you need to have 7 wins to at least score even in arena)

also to the guy who wants to dust Cairne…DON’T!!

Cash to gold wise, spending cash on Naxx vs gold makes sense. The amount of packs you can get for the gold you spend on naxx was far better. But if you can’t afford cash nothing to do but grind out the gold, and be sad when you have no gold for GvG.

Wanted to share some of the Hearthstone stuff I picked up at blizzcon

Grainy picture, shoulda put on my flash, but each hero had a trading card you could pick up by doing various things, like playing GvG, getting a poster signed, going to the community corner across the convention, etc. Also a hearthstone coin, they were using these in the vending machines to get the little collectible capsules, but I opted to save my coin. Also the lanyard there with the hearthstone logo actually lights up a really bright blue

Also got this hearthstone poster, and it was signed by a few developers/artists

And lastly, not entirely hearthstone but I added Thrall and Deathwing to my figure collection

Well the stuff I need is in that fourth quarter. 1400 Gold I would need, and I’m only at 245 now. Even if Hearthstone took mercy on me and gave me a bunch of 100 Gold Dailies It’d still take me a couple of weeks to get there. At that point I’m better off waiting for money.

So this happened earlier today.
