/hsg/ - Hearthstone General

At the very least

2 mana 2/2 1 Spell Damage

6 mana 6/6 2 Spell Damage

10 mana 10/10 3 Spell Damage

you guys forgot an important part

quests are legendary dust wise
quests are always drawn and can be mulliganed away

fucking over new players EVEN HARDER yay

I've 700g saved up right now; I intended to buy the last wing of Naxx--should I go ahead or just save for JtUG? Will they put old adventures back in the store? What about the Amazon coins thigy for MSoG?

Reddit said this will be control meta. Seems that way with overpowered quests. Can't wait for 30 minute games with real decisions for once.

>Quests appear in your mulligan, you can choose to keep it or not

This weekend

>Need to play 7 deathrattle minions to get a game winning card
>Could just play nzoth and win that way

Maybe there's going to be some gimmicky deathrattle/elemental synergy card that makes it into something

On it's own it's fucking shit and it's undoubtedly the only legendary I'm going to unpack this expansion.

my gf made fun of me after we watched it together and i said i was gonna get the pre order...
she's pretty based

Mage legendaries being unplayable garbage is kind of the identity of the class

Solia and Tony are the exceptions

is your gf an anime character from /sv/?

How do the quest cards work? Do you get the card forever or do you need to do the quest every single game?

If it's forever, Amara is literally a power creeped Reno. Power creped to hell and back. If you need to finish the quest every single time, then it's kinda mech. 7 Deathrattle minions is pretty hard to pull of if you're not playing a N'Zoth deck. So basically literally impossible in Aggrostone: Aggros of Aggrocraft.

>control meta

stop reading right there

If you have atleast 1 wing unlocked you can buy adventure whenever you want.
Just save up for JUGS for now.

or play both and definitely win

Actually I feel it won't and it'll just spawn in your hand after your mulligan like prince malchezaar's effect

Lets take bets on the other class quests.

>Shaman
>Play 5 minions worth 7 mana or more.

Quests are going to force 'NEW DECKS!'

Of course it's every game.

the mage legendary has its uses as a tech choice in a control meta for singleton mage, the card shits on control warriors

???
You play this turn 1 and summon lego once you finish it

Wild is going to still be the most fun mode.

REMINDER TO ALL ANONS. DONT GIVE THIS FAGGOT YOUR MONEY. ITS NOT ABOUT HAVING IT ITS ABOUT REFUSING TO GIVE THIS SLIMY MOTHERFUCKER THAT KILLED THIS GAME MORE MONEY. YOU WILL NEED A MAXIMUM OF 10-12K DUST FOR EVERYTHING USEFUL. SAVE UP AND CRAFT EVERYTHING YOU NEED. DONT BE A FOOL

no, that's literally it

mike donais mentioned it on twitter

those people will just float to rank 15+ though
i think the new player experience will be better from the bracket stuff

Why would it be forever you idiot.

You are fucking retarded if you can't figure it out even after they showed you how it works. Fucking scum.

Were you also confused how 9 new deckslots would work? Fucking retard

what the fuck

how isnt this the biggest power creep ever made

Can't play N'zoth on t6

>2x mistress of mixtures
>2x loot hoarders
>2x leper gnome
>2x backstreet lepers

And those are just the cheap shit death rattles I can remember off the top of my head

Draw decently and you'll have a 5 mana 8/8 taunt: Go to fucking 40 life in your hand to play on t6

idiots falling for this bait baka good job

implying there won't be a 1 mana 2/1 dinosaur deathrattle: if you control a dinosaur, summon a 4/4 mama dinosaur hunter card that makes this into an even faster aggro meta

and mama dinosaur rolls windfury on turn 2

>, the card shits on control warriors
Haha, no.

You need to play 7 deathrattles to even draw it

>Quests COST YOUR FIRST TURN to activate
>Quests are VISIBLE TO YOUR OPPONENT

The fuck they think this is gonna do?

>Play against "PRO" on ladder
>My mull gives me both jade chieftains
>they open with STB coin STB into spirit claws into golem
>I don't draw any of my 4 aoes or 2 devolves

Sometimes, Hearthstone just wants you to fucking die.

I don't play this game anymore, but the Un'Goro/dinosaur shit theme is fucking goat

The card is a reward for playing another card and 7 deathrattles after it.

Shaman quest:

Play 7 cards with overloard. -> Get a 4 mana "Deal 30 damage. Overload (2)" spell

Aggro Priest meta

O shit son didn't think about that. New cancer.

dude, everyone predicts a control meta literally every single expansion. Every time they are wrong.

>meta will shift to control
>grinding quests and 10g for 3 wins is going to become at least twice as slow
>the amount of gold needed to get all the useful cards is increasing because there's no more adventures

well played jewzard

If a Priest plays that quest shit against you, enjoy your free win.

It's a card that has a prerequisite to meet before you can even play it

Like Golden Monkey, but Golden Monkey you only have to draw cards

This means you have to play 7 specific minions (and thus the mana spent on those minions) before the card is even in your hand

>30 min games

If this becomes the standard game it's actually time for me to quit.
I'm not spending 20+ mins on a match that might not net me anything when I'm done.

Luckily people have been crying control meta for the entire lifetime of this game and it hasn't happened once, so it probably isn't a problem.

Is it okay that I'm buying it with WoW tokens?

where is the hsg tourney huh

>to even draw it
I'm pretty sure it's just placed in your hand after you complete the quest

>meta will shift to control
hahahaha no

rag, sylvanas, azure drake are all going too and those were core in control decks

>Quests try to force new decks
>Quest rewards have no synergy what so ever, the ones that do synergize with cards that rotated out
>mfw Quest cards are literally dead in the water before it even began

We're yet to see the 1-2 drops for aggro; what I can predict is jade preventing any pure control meta from happening.

1 card = 3 minions to remove

the 2/2 is shit, but the 6/6 and 10/10 are substantial. It forces warrior to spend multiple removal cards to remove a single card, that generates enormous value.

>Priest has a single Deathrattle minion after curator rotates
>Gets a Deathrattle quest
You can't make this shit up

Pass T1 to gain card advantage (Journey below, mind vision, smugglers run etc.) Is not a new concept

Considering pirates just got netted and shaman are being crippled by the rotation, meta SHOULD slow down assuming they don't print more broken aggro shit

Literally every expansion they say aggro is dead.
Aggro will never be dead. In every meta it'll find a way.

>All this people failing to realize that pirate warrior will kill them before they play their control cards

Aggro is truly a problem

>meta will shift to control
Yeah, sounds familiar.

Why do those blizztards keep shifting around which class is supposed to be the deathrattle class? It's been what, two expansions since they tried to make hunter into the deathrattle class?

>meta should slow down

It'll only do that if they flat out gave everyone 10 armor or 10 more health. New priest quest is clearly testing the waters for this.

>Visible to your opponent
I'm pretty sure this wont matter because it will be 1 quest per class until later expansions

Can't wait for them to push beast druid again and give them a quest to play 7 jades_

Draw the card and place it in your hand mean functionally the same thing

Semantics I know but still

>expansion is about dinosaurs
>Aggro meant to be kept in check but somehow "Finds a way"

Like pottery
Spielberg does it again

Ooze cards confirmed, perhaps some will be strong enough to stop weapon classes.

Remember when everyone, /hsg/ included, thought Healing Wave was going to kill aggro dead?

And then Reno would?

And then C'thun and Co. would?

It doesn't happen.

fuckin pathetic lads

People don't realize that the pirate nerf greatly affects only Shaman. Rogue and Warrior can still be a thing.

I just got in, someone want to give me the rundown on what is going on?

It would be great if you faggots didnt spam threads when something goes on, but it seems the 40 people posting in this thread and the last one wanted to make fucking 400 posts in an hour

go kill yourself bet cuckhold

>meta will shift to control

You dumb fucks have been saying this for the last what, 6, 7 expansions?

And it has never come true and it sure as hell won't be true now I guarantee it.

Screencap my post niggers, you know I'm right.

post yfw new mage legendary has literally nothing to do with magic

x mana x/x remove 1 durability from a 4 attack weapon that already hit your face and hope to draw this card

absolutely crap at any given X

>aggro keeping greed decks in check is a problem
lol no

aggro is fine, the only aggro deck we kinda have right now is Dragon Priest.
face decks like Pirate Warrior and "Aggro" Shaman on the other hand... are not fine.
.

>1 card = 3 minions to remove
Wow! Amazing!

Pirate warrior won't be so tough once buccaneer gets molested

But they aggressively pushed aggro every expansion with new cards since then

If they don't this time (ie we don't see another tunnel trogg,spirit claws, stb etc.) Then we MIGHT BE ok

Are you surprised? Mage legendaries being garbage is the norm

>hey would if gave hunter SOMETHING
>lol no lets give it to mage

Drawing it means it was in your deck in the first place and now you have 1 cards less, which is a big deal in control matchups that can go into fatigue.

You know what happens when the meta slows down?

I don't understand the mage legendary.
Is it worgen greaser of the expansion in the legendary slot?

I'd hold judgment on meta slowing down once I see hunter cards tbqh

Also good to know Shaman gets a 5 mana "clear the entire board" spell pretty much.

>Un'Goro expansion
>It's actually that plant zone from Warlords of Dreanor, Gorgrond or whatever
>But since nostalgia is the only thing keeping shit like Heroes/Hearthstone/WoW alive it's called Un'Goro

>3 mana 3/3
>Battlecry: destroy an opponent weapon and deal damage equal to its attack value to all minions

>Hunter was the deathrattle class
>No, now Rogue is the new deathtrattle class
>No, Priest gets the deathrattle quest

What happened to "class identity"?

Pirate rogue isn't even a thing
It's just miracle that runs the package to thin their decks
And they're losing conceal

And pirate warrior will feel the pain of a nerfed bucaneer

>Phoenix has nothing to do with mage

It's almost like you've never played wow or fought kael thas for that matter

Zoo wins the game.

>omg have you seen the new warrior taunt? MSOG will be control meta

youtube.com/watch?v=xAHwjbKQi04 an hour ago

it makes sense, depending on how good quests end up being it gives you enough information on how you should play

By saying 'to even draw it', you are heavily implying when you complete the quest the card is just placed in the deck for you to rely on topdecking for, it's more than just semantics it's a different mechanic altogether

Secondary class identities tend to be shared across 3 classes

reminder that its a time honored hsg tradition to buy the pre-order and a 60 packer at the start of an expansion

dont fall for the botting, gold saving plan or the not worth the money memes, they are meant to distract you from you reaching your potential
