The arena bug has been fixed.
Blizzard said anybody who opted in for a key before december 16th should have it. Check your emails.
Man this blizzard balancing is atrocious. All they do is beat shit that people complain about until itâs basically unplayable.
Glad to see theyâre trying to make a strategic game, so long as your strategy is to whine to blizzard about cards you donât like.
Iâve been trying super hard to play warrior and shaman in arenaâŚits just not working out right now. I only seem to find success with mage and warlock.
When I go warrior and shaman, it seems very hit and miss. Iâve tried to go midrangeâŚbut I think I just need to focus on being consistent with drafting a good curve, pumping out creatures on every turn. With mage and warlock you donât really have to worry about curving outâyou just have to survive until you hit your board wipes.
Anybody have success with those two clasee
Yeah Iâm still trying to buid a Shaman deck, need more cards.
I hate how pointless losses are, no gold gained at all is lame as fuck.
You get XP though, to get that sweet golden cards
Also this rogue just coined out a novice engineer turn 1 
Man, once I accepted that priest was terrible and started rolling Druid/Pally (also for quests huehue) constructed has been way smoother.
I love pallyâs âdouble a minionâs attackâ people love getting one shot.
So with the mage changes , ive been left confused as to what cards to build/replace hereâs my deck as it is:
-2x ice lance
-2x mirror image
-2x mana wyrm
-2x frostbolt
-2x Sorcererâs Apprentice
-2x Arcane Intellect
-2x Frost Nova
-2x Cone of cold
-2x fireball
-2x polymorph
-2x Water Elemental
-2x Azure Drake
-2x Gurubashi Berserker
-1x Blizzard
-2x flamestrike
-1x pyroblast
So is there any need to build Blizzard , frost nova or cone of cold anymore or are they just trash? any other improvements I can add to the deck?
Frost nova and cone of cold seem to be straight garbage now. I still think mage is viable just needs to focus more minion based with board clear and early mana worms. Alextrassa seems to be necessary to win most games now with the healing people have.
I would replace gurubashi berserker with something else as a big minion, even with mage being able to ping it a lot, I still feel like its underwhelming.
I donât know if you NEED arcane intellect. if you really want to run it, i would do it as a 1-of to help you dig during the late game. i agree with willy, replace berserker with something that impacts the board a little bit more. Try a vanilla corehound or something along those lines, if you cant afford a mythic rare
Blessed Champion blows dick. Donât run that garbage card. 5 mana to double the attack of something is pretty much a win more card. If you have the opportunity to land a free hit to someoneâs face with something that has more 5 attack base (which is the only time that this card is conceivably better than Might or Kings(which are both cards that donât see any play these days)) to win the game, then you were probably going to win the game anyways.
Berserker really is a priest/druid/pally card, healing it up can give you good value, transforming a 5 drop into something that eats 2-3 of their dudes before killing them.
I absolutely love blessed champion, itâs a one of and routinely I play it the turn I win, even in semi-equal board positions. I common line is windfury harpy, next turn blessing of might + blessed champion, they take 28.
I wouldnât run more than one of it because it doesnât do anything without a dude to buff, but itâs so explosive that I wouldnât ever cut it. Iâve also recently started playing Might of Kings (because as I mentioned before I have dick all as far as card collection is concerned) because it has some very nice interactions with taunt creatures, windfury creatures, blessed champion, and that 1/3 guy that draws cards when he takes damage.
Eh, I canât say that I dig the Windfury Harpy late game closer play. Iâm more of a fan of the mid-game tempo Paladin style, backed with solid card advantage generated by Sword of Justice, Shattered Sun Cleric and Defender of Argus. Of course, I toss in Ragnaros and Avenging Wrath, because why the hell not.
That last post more or less describe how all the decklists in hearthstone look âbecause why the hell not.â
Yep, itâs the curse of this tiny as fuck card library. You pick staple cards, then throw in the good legendaries that fit (almost always Sylvanas/Rag/Bloodmage), and then you might have 4-6 cards of wiggle room to address the meta. It feels like you have to justify why a card is not in your deck, instead of the other way around.
Yeah but the problem is I have dick all for cards, no sylvanas, no bloodmage, no rag⌠So harpy does work either midgame 2 for 1ing them OR killing them as it shifts into lategame. I also donât have defender.
I really dig how cheap arena is though, and the crafting system is brilliant, theyâve got a good game here, just confused as to what they expect to happen⌠Theyâll definitely need rotating sets, maybe turning everyoneâs cards (except golden cards + legendaries) into dust and then retiring cards. Then when they bring cards back you still get your gold cards and legendaries but need to get the rest.
Shrug, obviously Iâve put exactly 3 seconds thought into this idea, but Iâm just stunned by how SolForge is doing draft so wrong while hearthstone does it so right.
Hmm. Iâm at a bit of a loss as to what a starting HS player can play in terms of being cheap, yet super effective, since UtH and MC got nerfed. Warlock rush? All of their good shit is either basic or common, and you donât really need that Jarraxus, unless you completely stall out. You can do a ghetto Leeroy Jenkins with Arcane Golem.
Iâve just been laming it out with tons of taunt cards and good removal, I think for having no cards at all hunter might be better to rush with because all these cheap efficient beasts and easy 2 for 1s
Also druid with ironbark protector is pretty good, and wild growth is good when playing other scrubs who donât really do things since you get so far aheadâŚ
Like yeah if I run into a real deck I get rinsed, but I rinse noobs. I mentioned I had no close games in constructed.
Went on a good run in arena 6-3 with an absolute SHIT warrior deck. Had some close games, loved looping battlecry with the few pandas I picked up. One or two in arena seem really good since they are walking twofers.
The top of my curve was one seven drop, one six drop, and then a bunch of 4-5s with a fair amount of 2s and 3s. Got a lot of terrible hands though, even after the mulligan I would just draw all my midgame. One loss I was absolutely thrashed by this guy who had an insane chain, gaining board on me while 2-4-1ing me and I had no way to come back. Another time I just drew shit while he drew perfectly, I worked him down to no cards in hand with no board and he proceeded to only topdeck 7 drops until I died. This is after he dumped an insane rush hand that I needed two cleaves and some cheap taunt to stabilize at like 15. I was more than a little salty when Iâm drawing 2 drops late and he bankrolls nothing but huge monsters.
So I finally found my four digit ID #
Please add me you guys. I have no friends on this game. Iâm a loner.
SSS is my name and #1611 is my number
Classic Blizzard lol
Official blizzard forums is almost worst than Gamefaqs, yet thatâs where a lot of their devs get their input from the masses.
