5-0 as rafaam 1-1 as kel'thuzad

>Not holding Molten for when you draw the Matriarch

>queue up as quest rogue
>first match is aggro druid

Truly having nothing but cheap decks is a struggle

as if aggro druid was a good matchup for pirate warrior

you were fucked either way

>wild is so dead I'm queuing into rank 3s while in the top 200

I thought this mode was supposed to have half the players of standard

last i knew its about 8:1::standard:wild

> I always queue up against bad matches

> I never draw the lucky card

> My opponent always top-decks perfect answer

Playing against quest rogue is aids.

Losing to some chink playing solitaire on turn 5 is killing my buzz.

>it's an 'opponent misses lethal because of wrong order' episode
Feels good man

Why don't you teach your friends?

Rouge is a fun an interesting class to play against

Either you are playing aggro and win or you play anything else and lose.

That is the power of Ben Brode.

>Ben 'The Total Hack' Brode.

Stop being so entitled to fun, the game is still free to play..

Playing a janky version of discovery channel mage but I don't have Alex or Thalnos but it's still bretty gud, lads.

>tfw playing wild to finish quests this late in the season

I can't do it, it hurts my heart.

>Not playing Wild for keeps and using Standard for quests
It's like you hate a combination of more fun AND efficiency.

>wake up
>bot already farmed 30 wins in brawl
>no reason to play this game til tomorrow
well see you

>leaving computer on all night just to make less than 1 dollar in virtual currency

>all night
nigga I'm using the free trial. 2hours

>wake up
did you only sleep 2 hours?

>schedule task
>shut down in 2h10m
>go to sleep

>Botting and not enjoying the fun this game has to offer.

I also save money because I use my computer at night to self-distribute video games and movies that I would otherwise have to buy at the store

Alright I can respect that.

>mage has become the undisputed king of aids

>Get on ladder as secret mage
>4 aggro baby hunters in a row

>tfw bots can pilot modified Wild Pirate Warriors with more on curve shit like Shredders and Grom to high legend

Are Wild players retarded?

No, it's just that Wild is all T2 memedecks until 5+, after which it's mostly other Pirate Warrior bots.

>secret mage
You're hardly any better.

What is even the point of cards like these if they require you to build a deck around them if you want it to actually be good and yet most classes have a one-card counter to them that they already run?

Run 2 Doomguards and tutor them out with Sense Demons

When will Lich King VS Battle Pets be formally announced? I want to see the new cards already.

Yes I did that

Turns out warrior can just brawl them away with no effort

>Goes all-in while opponent still has boardclears
Smart

Thats why Krul is a shit card.

Throwing all your cards in hand onto the board isnt a good play, because you invite your opponent to clear.

Because this game has 0 enemy turn interaction.

In MTG if you flood the board you could also have some form of interrupts to protect your board.

In Yugioh you can do the same.

Hearthstone? lol no complex minion on minion combat

Can we complete quests verse friends now?

I mean though, how would you implement more complicated interaction / protection than that in Hearthstone? I mean, the fact that players font interrupt each other's turns is what makes gameplay so smooth and bathroom break playable.

What could it be?

At last... a worthy disciple.

The same way other games do it. Older games gave you the option to respond after every single action the opponent took but thats incredibly dragonic and slow by todays standards.

But you could just give the enemy an interrupt command that they can only activate IF they can make an interrupt of some kind. And slow down the game enough after actions are taken to give people a chance to respond.

>What makes gameplay so smooth and bathroom break playable

Thats another way of saying so simple and predictable you dont even have to look at the screen while you play

Everyone has a price...400 dust

user those are called "Secrets" and people generally hate them.

Just bought 4 classic packs and got no legendaries, burn this game down immediately.

lad I've opened 27 classic packs since my last legendary. And probably I won't get one in the next one either

Secrets are baby mode interrupts. They arent even interrupts. Shit like Mirror entity is just "Pay 3 mana, summon a minion on your opponents turn. They can fuck you over and play something shit"

A spell that was 3 mana: "Stop your opponent from casting the spell they're currently casting" is more of an ACTUAL counter card

That one's called "counterspell"

his point is secrets activate automatically, you can't decide when to pop them.

That would throw balance out of the window.
Not to mention, the players will have to decide when to pop it themselves! Too complicated! HS is meant to be simple and interactive!

Then play harder tech cards like Dirty Rat which pull shit from hand and act as a final solution when you know your opponent is holding something greedy in their hand.

Kezan Mystic and Loathbeb should have never rotated out.

Same, it took me 28 packs before my last legendary and currently I am at 15 opened and still havent gotten one

Blizzard obviously nerfs drop rates randomly

Do you even pity timer?

>Wanting to just be able to drop xbox hueg bodies and let them live forever behind a billion interrupts for removal
Spot the Mage player.

a legendary about 1/20 packs on average and you'll only get one within 20 packs ~63% of the time

Simple and uninteractive*

3 mana 3/5 legendary demon
Battlecry and deathrattle gives this. Broken, useless?

Broken.

utterly broken.

no one would play this outside of meme decks

FINALLY

Now I can play control hunter

I lost this game, but I had to try it for the meme.
Only got him to 8 :(

but do you have swamp king?

No but I do have Medivh and 2x CotW

For the love of god someone link me full image from op please.

noice

source of the pic?

nevermind found it

>Overstatted minion that makes you draw 2 cards for free.

Did you start to play this game yesterday? How can you even consider this absolutely broken bullshit monstrosity? What's next, 5 mana win the game?
OCtards are retarded.

How about:
Battlecry: Discard a card.
Deathrattle: Draw a card
If this card was discarded, draw a card instead.

If you want it to be legendary you can add the Silverware Golem clause too.

so... Darkshire Librarian?

Yeah it's nice except for when I get Blade of C'Thun from Ateish.

>have crush on girl
>hate league of casuals
>she plays it

why couldn't it have been hearthstone instead lads

Slightly better than her, but 3 mana, and yes.

That's like getting cancer instead of AIDS.

>from 0-2 to 8-3

To whoever has used raptr - what are your thoughts of it?

Guys is burn mage worth playing right now?

What dick ?

Arena mate

What deck is Hogger least bad in?

I was thinking taunt warrior with bolster.

does he advance the quest?

No but it causes problems if he's hiding behind a big taunt.

>Good at the game
>Cute
>Actually funny
>Nothing obnoxious in the stream besides subscribe sound
>Love her accent

I'm starting to feel

...

I hadnt time to play the game this month, quick give me the most cancerous deck so i can climb fast

no

This game looks pretty fun and I am thinking about trying it but before that I am afraid that I must know due to my political beliefs whether or not there is in fact any race mixing involved in the game's canonical lore?

>when he tries an alpha move but she smells his beta personality and ignores him so he becomes the submissive
wew lad

Wasn't there a character in the comics that's perfect at everything and he's 15% draenei 15% orc 15% human 15% elf and whatever?

depends on what you think of big, strong orc and little, blue goat people

I never really acknowledged reynad in that webm, but you're right.

What the fuck's he got to be beta for though

>Tall as fuck
>White

The free-est puss you can get

He's very insecure about his looks, especially his pig nose

All decks are cancerous except pal and miracle rogue

Hmm....

>dat beast synergy

yo sauce me up please

> palibabby didnt get his tirion

how do i win this game ?
