>Arena will have two in-game currencies, Wizards of the Coast revealed today: Gold, earned through gameplay, and Gems, which will be purchasable with real money. Gems can be used in place of gold to speed things along
>there are five ways to earn cards in Magic: The Gathering Arena:
>boosters -will be eight-card boosters containing five commons, two uncommons, and one rare or mythic rare.
>draft packs -will contain 14 cards mirroring tabletop drafts, minus land. Drafting will also add cards to your collection, as any card you draft will be automatically added to your collection.
>individual cards - will also be earnable through play. Wizards is currently testing a one-card-per-win system that will give players up to 30 cards per day.
>wildcards - are special cards that have a chance to appear in the place of each card at any rarity in every booster you open. Wildcards have their own rarity of common, uncommon, rare, and mythic rare. You can redeem a Wildcard one-to-one for a card at that same rarity.
>the vault - which is more of a progression-based system: Every time you open a booster, you earn progress toward unlocking The Vault. When you would collect a fifth copy (or more) of a card, you earn vault progress instead of adding that card to your collection. That reward system is still being tested.

I have spent too much money on hearthstone to switch at this point
David Sullivan
I'd rather play Artifact than MTG
Sebastian Wilson
Serious question, how is Hearthstone doing? I quit last year when Ungoro came out.
Blake Garcia
Schrodinger's cards.
His hand size represents the maximum number of cards he can play in a turn - and he has access to his entire deck.

It makes a lot of money.

its horrible

Easton Ramirez
frozen added cards that upgrade your hero priest is ultimate cancer dungeon runs are comfy

git gud at arena and you can earn way more than that.

FUCK ME MAN CAN I GET SOME FUCKING PACKS REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I thought blizz wouldn't fuck him over so soon because most people voted for kolento
Cameron Ortiz
It didn't even take that long.
5 seconds after saying "yep" he was "Preparing to battle a friend". This must be what a heartbreak feels like.
Jaxon Edwards
But did you win that round?
Liam Russell
purple is still in moron
Joseph Sullivan
what the fuck is wrong with me
Colton Howard
he still lost pretty badly so I'm guessing blizz is going to just annihilate him next time he plays
Brandon Brooks
The rank Don't worry user, you'll get better
Nolan Collins
glistening anime armpitties
Juan Anderson
Yes, but I'm rank 5, so winning means nothing.
Colton Flores
Yea I've only played a little but that was really rough. I had to hit shadowplay to check that I was indeed, worse at math than a first grader.
I've always been better at deckbuilding than playing, though. Because I don't pay attention.
Hunter Rodriguez
When did they play? I wasn't able to catch them today, but apparently my boy sinto is doing great!
Lucas Jackson
xth for P2W Bullshit game.
Josiah Cook
why don't you play arena? the game mode that requires skill :>
Angel Edwards
>p2w card game
Oh wow, really? Just like every other hero card game? That's what collecting cards is dumb ass, p2w
Robert Campbell

Christian Clark

Camden Martinez
t. person that uses hearth arena yet still gets sub-60 point drafts, resulting in 3-3 arena runs purely based off the fact my deck is filled with absolute, unavoidable trash that I somehow end up drawing every single game
Joshua Jackson
deck trackers are for ultra-shitters. I do perfectly fine without any help.
Cameron Hughes
I don't use it for the deck tracker, I use it to tell me if wisp is better than alarm-o-bot

I'm not gonna give it any (You)'s, that may be what it wants. But what goes through the mind of someone to hold this opinion?
Hudson Murphy
Is Kobolds and catacombs beatable? There is always champion with a bullshit deck.
Caleb Edwards
Question:
>I play The Darkness and a few turns pass. >It's my turn and I play Coldlight Oracle to have my opponent draw two. >They hit the 3rd candle.
Will my darkness be able to attack on my turn or will it count as just being summoned?
Aaron Myers
all you need is a more bullshit deck
Michael Martinez
it'll be able to attack
Bentley Perez
Neat. I was wondering if I could make a mill rogue with it. Or the weapon rogue that draws a lot either way.
Thanks for the info.
Daniel Torres
no
Jeremiah Stewart
allegedly, I've gotten 7/8 several times.
>pick stealth >next opponent is deadly deadly spores
>game gives me only low cost card options >fighting lavaroom >deck refuses to draw a minion with health higher than 3
Closest I've gotten on the final battle was against destroyer when I had two draw 3 cards, cost is zero wands and the devourer ate every useful card I had.
Grayson Howard
WHENNNN
Dylan Gutierrez
Make it a 4/4 and then yes.
Caleb Phillips
I decided to open this email and saw this shit >Mecha Tyrael >Mecha Rehgar Has Blizzard gone full retard?
Leo Parker
It's an elemental chillwind yeti dude, unless you run the other arena card or face the one specific archetype It wouldn't see play outside arena at 4/6
Michael Cruz
there is already an elemental yeti. boring
Angel Gonzalez
>cannot individually create cards >for good cards you need to open vault which needs 5 copies Also 30 cards per day sounds unsustainable seeing every set has 250 cards so you most likely only get trash. Now big question is- what is vault? Do you need 5 same rares for vault rare or 5 copies for any vault card.
Lucas Richardson
You mean the dungeon? My husband has beaten it with every class so it's definitely doable.
I've only tried it as rogue and have only beaten the 5th boss.
Jordan Carter
4 cards is the max you can have in a deck. extras probably fill some kind of bar that rewards some kind of pack or whatever
Isaiah Evans
Its very vague, i am and old MtG player and WoTC are making some scheme-they for sure arent intending to be generous. Also notice all the speculation of getting codes from real packs fell in the water.
Cooper Sanchez
HotS is so shit, they give the modellers a free pass to model whatever the fuck they want.
Asher Harris
he lost 3-2, retard.
Then 3-0'd no-dad
Carter Powell
He also lost 3-2 having a 2 point lead, total upset.
Adam Cox
consider this
Justin Ramirez
Make it stealth, a dragon and immune to psychic scream and then I'd consider playing it.
Elijah Price
Hots was such a mediocre success for Blizz theyre constantly keeping it on life support. New ideas are these skin promotion which are hit and miss. Also >mecha Rehgar >they didnt make SEWER SHARK pirate Greymane yet Not playing superior game
Andrew Perez
WHERE'S TODAY'S FREE PACK?
Jordan Roberts
18-19 is only one pack for both days other two packs are 20th and 21st
James Jackson
why are we getting Un'goro packs? Is Blizzard that cheap? goddamn...
Blake Wilson

Isaac Walker
Is there a good freeze shaman decklist around? just opened golden Moorabi.
Blake Lewis
I'm sorry user. At least it's golden.
Brayden Fisher
You don't even want to put Moorabi in a Freeze Shaman deck, it does nothing for the deck. Frozen Shaman is perhaps the biggest failure of a forced archetype, even worse than Literal Freeze Mage. That's at least fun to meme with, Freeze Shaman is not.
Luis Foster
>ungoro >packs >plural
Nathaniel Hill
Damn, that's my first golden leggo after GvG, guess I'll dust then, a least my mimiron was kinda useful in mage.
Landon Hughes
Freeze mage was very real back in the day.
Dylan Nguyen
LITERAL Freeze Mage which is supposed to include cards such as Cryomancer, Coldwraith, Freezing Potion and so on.
Lucas Edwards
...
Noah Lopez
The most fun I have with this game is opening packs and browsing the collection. I wish there was an auto-play button.
Gabriel Lewis

Charles Williams
The gameplay and mechanics will be better sure but I doubt any digital card game coming out in the next 5 years will beat Hearthstone's UI and polish.
WOTC need to tap into the casual pleb market not just the serious autists like us here.
Gavin Bell
This was a hard fought 7 wins. I very much doubt I can get to 12 wins with this though I am pleased to at least make it this far.
I'll keep fighting for that 3rd 12 win in a row so cheer me on /hsg/ !!
Christopher Hall
Ah yes, check out my new and innovative deck >x1 Patches >x1 Prince Keleseth >x2 Southsea Captain >x2 Cobalt Scalebane >x2 Spiteful Summoner >x2 Corridor Creeper >x2 Bonemare >x2 Grand Archivist >The biggest spells your class has
Nathaniel Wright
I did bot way back and I had fun tweaking with it making it increasingly more optimal, the bot even made it to legend. But blizzard slapped me on the wrist and I don't want to risk getting banned and losing my collection now.
Nicholas Jones
>2 archivist Shit deck.
Dylan White
9-3 at most, your curve is fucked, good luck though.
Tyler Phillips
Quit this game before you become like all of us
Noah Bennett
>no tar creeper meme deck
Evan Allen
And divine shield, deathrattle: resummon this minion, and can't be targeted by spells or hero powers
Connor Gutierrez
Stop being so greedy cuck. You are making us look bad. If you want more packs then buy them you poor bum
Sasuga, Blizzard. Rotate out the cards that give us 0 dust during Hall of Fame, instead of nerfing cards like Ultimate Infestation.
Fucking greedy cunts
Austin Martinez
>"The only class that's been relevant throughout every single metagame is Druid. Druid's always been one of the top three decks."
It’s almost like some Jew at bliazzard has a hardon for druids
Parker Thomas
Hall of fame was a mistake.
Julian Martin
2 more to go!
Dominic Perry
>putting pity dust in front of game balance >calling other people greedy
Owen Rodriguez
Wild growth and ramp in general is part of Druid's identity. Instead of nerfing the oppressive stuff that druid can ramp to, they'd rather you buy the next set so that maybe you can open the epic spell: >>>wild growth, 3 mana spell gain 1 mana crystal.
Either that or it will be unplayable, resulting in druid being warrior-tier.
See: fiery war axe nerf and the epic 2 mana weapon bladed gauntlet.
Jordan Gutierrez
did they fix the jasper spellstone armor gain animation bug thing yet?
Austin Nelson
I've never gotten over 11 wins, I still manage to go "infinite", my mean must be ~6 wins, how do you even get that good?
Jacob Sullivan
on to the final boss!
Julian Reyes
I'm not much of a Druid fan but wild growth seems like a perfectly fine card.
