/hsg/ - Hearthstone General

Reminder that Team 5:

-Thought its playerbase was too retarded to comprehend more than 9 deckslots
-Refuses to change Druid of the Claws text so that it actually does what it says
-Thinks that "teching" in Arcane Explosion or Elven Archer to deal with 1 health pirates is a great way of combating pirate decks
-Refuses to stop printing snowballing 1 drops
-Lied about Classic Cards never rotating

First for token druid is meta

when will yuro mtg morons learn that card text literally doesn't matter?

they could remove it and replace with random lore and I wouldn't even be mad.

>enemy finja attacks my 5/1 Drakonid Operative
>pulls in two Murloc Warleader
>the hp buff from the two Warleaders buffs the Finja out of kill range from the exchange with the Drakonid Op
Is blizzard serious? How the fuck could they possibly think this ordering is legitimate

>next turn
>I equality (from drakonid op) + holy nova the enemy board
>the finja survives losing the buffs from the now dead warleaders, snapping the equalitys effect
This is pants on head retarded.
By this logic: Equality takes effect, putting the 2 warleaders and finja's hp to zero ->>> holy nova kills the two warleaders, but not the finja ->>> finja loses the hp bonus from now dead warleaders, resetting its HP up from 1 to 3 --> Holy nova then hits Finja down to 1

.... can someone explain how they could allow the game to work this way???

>hearthstone
never fucking again

t. From Software

>Azure Drake
>Thalnos
>Rag
>Sylvanas
>Blizzard
>Doomsayer
>Tirion
>Jaraxxus
>Leeroy
And that's just Classic, without Basic.

all those cards listed are too slow for the meta, especially doomsayer.

Well at least we know Blizzard and Doomsayer are safe, given their boner for freeze mage

Google the advanced rulebook on hearthstone wiki. The ordering is as follows:
1. Finja orders an attack.
2. The attack happens.
3. Special abilities trigger.
3a. Murloc Warleaders are summoned.
3b. Their auras are applied (auras are always applied immediately).
4. Deaths are resolved, after Finja got the aura buffs.

Second case:
1. You played a spell.
2. Minions take damage.
3. Deaths are resolved.
4. Murloc Warleaders die.
5. Their auras are removed.

It's not that hard to comprehend, shieldbearer.

That's why Thalnos and Azure Drake are rotated, right?

>Doomsayer
>Good

You can coin out a Doomsayer on turn 1 against Pirate Warrior and not only will he have enough damage to kill it but he will have face damage left over

The way they code combat effects and shit is so backwards. If an opponent has a 1/1 and a stormwind champ (making the 1/1 a 2/2) and you deal 1 damage to the 2/2 (making it a 2/1) and then kill the stormwind champ, the 2/1 gets -1/-1 which somehow turns it back to a 1/1. Because everybody knows that 2-1 is 1, but 1-1 is also 1.

tl;dr: Nobody on team 5 knows jack shit about ccg's or basic math.

>tfw someone made a lewd picture about your pure waifu

Dude
Dude
What if, like
They lose the HP they got from auras and buffs first?

Post a link, baby.

yo what's the best card

Dirty fucks in Gadgetzhan

Blizzard should update the game and make it the new Goldshire

this little nigga right here

Shadow rager.

...

Dude, dude, what if, like, they lost 2 hp total and ordering shouldn't matter?

Always and forever

there should be some text somewhere that says auras supersede spells and abilities that target minions health or attack

ummmm why is every streamer suddenly playing Anyfin Paladin?

was something posted on Reddit?

j4ckiechan told firebat it was the best deck in the game

>was something posted on Reddit?
ur moms nudes LMAO

>too slow for this meta

will they ever fix the polymorph / jaraxxus interaction

Which ones am I supposed to buy?

The Blizz overlords instructed them to pretend that Pally isn't a dead class.

...

>Blizzard
>expllaining anything
>ever
If you want a game that makes sense, you're better off playing MtG.
Because it would, heaven forbid, make the game consistent.

>playing faggic

>Hey Azure Drake is being run a lot because its one of the few good classics
>Should we take away one of its mechanics? Try to nerf it or something?
>What if we buff all the other spell damage cards since theyre all shit? Or nerf Spirit Claws?
>Nah remove it from the game lmao
These people are in charge of a multi million children's card game

I feel like OW is really pushing the SFM porn industry forward. A lot of great milestones made in the past year or two.

When did they say anything about nerfing drake?

Meant for

I would still run Drake even if it became a 3/4

What if it became 6 mana? Or only provided spell damage?

What if they left it alone and printed some actually usable 5 drops?

Then I'll play Soot Spewer instead

>What if they made good cards?
Kek, nice one

A man can hope, can't he?

Rhetorical question.

I dreamed
When I was in high school
That I attended
The punk rock academy

Everytime you make your favourite song your ringing you kill the song

just played rogue+shaman in the tavern brawl and all the most useful cards were shaman ones

funny that innit

>Arena
>1-0
>vs mage
>he coins out Mechwarper
>then plays Spidertank
>then plays Shredder
>then plays Gorillabot A-3

>I'm 1-1
>vs mage again
>T1 mana wrym
>T2 arcane missles that randomly kill my 3/2 + zombie chow
>T3 frost bolt my 3/4 + Mirror Image

I missed arena so much

Is it official Azure Drake is rotating out?

Any decks to beat Maloriak on heroic without GvG rares and higher??

Azure drake, leeroy, rag and sylvanas are all getting chopped.

Everything that doesn't suck balls is rotating out. They'll force you to play meme cards from the latest expansions even if they have to rotate every single card except Silverback Patriarch and Magma Rager.

ded game ded thread

its for the best though, maybe the kikes will learn

Buffs auras are broken in that fight, unless they patched it(!), so use dire wolf alpha etc.

this Brawl is trash.

I wouldn't even mind them nerfing standard cards if Malygos was one of them.

>that's right goyim you have to buy packs every few months now

just like this game
its like poetry

fuck off weebpedoverse shill

Oh good idea, I'll check that out.

i dont even play shadowverse, go project somewhere else, or post on /reddit/ blizzfag

Good luck user

>implying the average /hsg/ poster doesn't hate every second of playing the game

How much gold do you guys have? Im at 700 now been saving since new years i hope i have 3500 until adventure comes out

>Azure Drake
One of the few good 5 drops.
>Thalnos
Very versatial but not OP. Can draw you a card and combined with spells because of the cheap cost.
>Rag
Okay, I guess. Currently not really played a lot because he does nothing against aggro.
>Sylvanas
Pretty much one of the few good 6 drops.
>Blizzard
Aoe damage with a freezing effect. Wasn't even used outside of Freeze mage before the reno trande thanks to MSG.
>Doomsayer
Literally the only thing that has a tiny chance of stopping the early aggro bullshit and even then a coined out doomsayer dies to a turn 2 board from Warrior.
>Tirion
Unplayable.
>Jaraxxus
Unplayable.
>>Leeroy

How is this balanced hearthtards

Azure Drake and Thalnos arent even problems. The abundance and very blatant power creep on cheap aoe is. Nobody wants to play Thalnos to make 6 damage into 7 damage. People DO want to turn blizzard into a hellfire. Its their own damn fault for being unable to make anything good in classic and power creeping the fuck out of themselves.

Who the fuck said it is??

it isn't.

>finished all quests in Brawl in under 30 minutes
>don't have to play this game again for another 3 days
feelsgoodbrehs

It's okay because it's a 1/2 while you don't have a weapon and Rogue, Warrior and Shaman have a hard time getting one so it's okay.
Don't worry.

Thalnos and Azure Drake will rotate out soon.

r8 dick
Any suggestions on improving it?

I know sprint is slow and not that good of a card, but Gadtzetsan doesn't make sense given that I don't have as many spells, and I run out of stuff somewhat quickly, so it's not like I can hold cards back. Got me from rank 20 to 13 in 2 days tho.

Where are your pirates?

sounds like you are enjoying yourself user. You are certainly a smart person that knows what your heart truly desires

-1 deadly poison, -1 shadow strike, -1 gang up, -1 sprint

+2 undercity huksters, +2 unearthed raptors.

Don't own LoE, don't wanna buy it given it's rotating out in 2 mths.
Deadly poison is kinda crap given rogue doesn't have any good weapons anymore, but idk what exactly to replace it with.

>hey certain cards from the classic set are being TOO used on many decks
>people are in fact, ignoring new cards from the lastest set because they are too shitty in comparation
>WELL THEN rotate that shit or outright nerf it so it becomes unusable

SV
>hey certain cards from the classic set are being TOO used on many decks
>how about we print new cards that make possible to counter those decks and enable new playstyles?
>after a while people DO move from trying to exploit said cards and start to use new decks based on new cards

>watching Kibler's video
>plays against pirate warrior
>drops doomsayer on turn 2 to absorb 7 damage
>still dies on turn 4
>somehow classic limits the design space and makes the meta stale

Then I'd personally put another swash buckler in over poison. The deck seems fun, can't say it will climb far beyond 15.

>No 0 mana stonetusk boar draw a card
>No 1 mana 3/2s with no downsides
user, it's like you WANT to have fun.

Yes, yes it does.

Not that I own le free stonetusk boar, but yeah I'm just waiting for it to get patched up.

I really, really like how Team 5 is so incompetent they made the same mistake in EVERY FUCKING EXPANSION THEY RELEASED and they stil don't understand how to deal with it.

>look at all this cards that have not been played and would in fact have slowed the match a lot if they were played instead of the expansion cards

Did you even watch the video? 37 fucking damage by turn 4. Only classic cards used were War Axe (once) and the pirate lego.

But sure, the problem is classic. Totally not a 1 mana 3/2 that summons a 1/1 with charge.

>1/1 with charge.

1/1 with storm.

Fixed your typo

Nigga its called getting high rolled.

I've seen a 12/12 van cleef kill someone on turn 4 of a major tournament and no one is calling for a van cleef nerf

Not him, but VC is a class lego, most of the classic class legos are broken af.

>STILL NO MAIEV AS ALTERNATE ROGUE HERO

FUCK ACTUAL BALANCE CHANGES, I JUST WANT MY GIF

A 12/12 Van Cleef happens once in a blue moon. A warrior killing you by turn 4-5 is something that happens in every 3rd, possibly 4th game.

Hey guys, since there's been a lot of talk about the new player experience, I thought I'd talk about mine in Hearthstone. I've been playing for about 2 months starting in the November season. I'm the type to try-hard in any game I play, so I tend to use online resources to optimize my time spent. November season, I played a majority of days, hitting most quests. I made sure to do all the hidden quests. I knew coming into the game that I would be playing Shaman, because I liked the totem hero power. Looking up some netdecks of Shaman, I aimed for getting a standard midrange shaman minus the legos. In the first month, I played 3 arenas, hitting a high of 4 wins with an average of 7/3. I bought 1 more old gods card pack (4) and 1 TGT card pack. The rest of my money was spent on Classic packs. Of note in those packs relevant to me:
>x1 Acidmaw
>x1 Thing From Below
>x1 Mukla, Tyrant of the Vale

I checked whether I should keep either lego and decided to dust Acidmaw. With that dust, plus the dust you are given for dusting for the first time (some random commons), I had a bit more than 500. I crafted:
Classic
>x1 Feral Spirit (100)
>x1 Lightning Storm (100)
TGT
>x2 Totem Golem (80)
>x2 Thunder Bluff Valiant (200)
Old gods
>x1 Thing from below (40)
>x1 Flamewreathed Faceless (40)

I chose these because now I would never have to buy another TGT pack and never have to do arena for old gods(I'd like to try again, but at the moment I don't need the MSoG packs). With this I managed to get rank 17 for November season. I had also become able to do Tavern Brawl and got my pack from the deathrattle x2 one.
