/hsg/ - Hearthstone General

Keep telling yourself that Shieldbearer.

>Implying any golden fag wants to touch the garbage alts
Even Garrosh who is a nigger, looks better than Muradin as golden

Im rank 14....

It's a card game of course it's inherently based on randomness.
It's not a fucking fighting game.
Look at Pavel's win at the tournament.
He only won because of the babbling book.

>Impossible to beat rogue unless you draw perfectly and they don't

AHAHA fucking interactive not being able to destroy their 10 damage lifesteal weapon

>unironically complaining about a tier 918 deck
sup shieldbearer

Oh shit, this guy's rank 14. When are you going pro?

tell me how to deal with it my legend friend

get out of shieldbearer rank

stop playing priest and warlock

>Blizzard """""balance"""""
why does anyone believe these retards could balance their way out of a cum-soaked paper bag?

Attention! I just discovered the perfect deck with 100% win ratio check it out (pic related);

You know how old Jaina is? Probably the same age as Thrall even older

wtf????

raza priest is a well known deck m8

By ending your life Anduin :)

no no this is new aggro shaman but for example instead of volcano you use storm shock. Totally new meta

>storm shock

The fact that the stupid meme "no minions" cards are epics are making it very annoying to have fun playing trashy control hunter.

and? whats your point?

Has anyone actually done any of those open tournaments? What was the experience like and how soon do you get paid?

agro deck or/and interrupting mill rogue's draws. Counterspell secret also works.

I assume you are ESL and meant Lightning Storm

>Dirty Rat hits opponent's Lyra
>He autistic screeches it back into my deck
>Draw it next turn
>This time it hits his Reno

no user the 1 mana 4 damage called storm shock

>forgot to login Sunday for the free pack
>"Maybe it's not too late!"
>it's too late
fug

I logged in on Sunday and still didn't a KFT pack

>muzzy picker
lol

Thrall isn't that old. He was I think like 21 in WC3? He was a baby in WC1.

if there is such a thing I will make a stream of myself eating my own shoes

so i had no internet for the past 3 days
how did fr0zen do?

I feel like Aluneth obliterates any chance I have at winning as Big Spell Mage against Tempo Mage.

>picked Fr0zen
>only get 5 free packs
sad

second place behind tom60229

Do you mean Stormcrack? The 2 mana, 4 damage spell?

>picked Neirea

Only get 1 pack

Sad

tomorrow I have an exam
give me willpower hsg

>He was a baby in WC1

Nah. He was born after the Second War (Warcraft 2) and captured after his parents were killed. He was put in an internment camp, hence his name.

I estimate Thrall to be 24 in wc3, Jaina was 22 I believe.

when do we get them?
thanks user, that's great news, trump was right for once

Soon (TM)
probably next week.

No, storm shock: google.sk/search?q=storm shock wow tcg&safe=active&client=opera&hs=776&dcr=0&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj8laH7wuzYAhVDKewKHRqmDeQQ_AUICigB&biw=1326&bih=658#imgrc=BrJx7w-rZ4MedM:

can't wait to see the stream

Hearthstone is too dumbed down to have interactions like that. Sorry to disappoint you user

Ahoj my Slovakian friend

>big druid will die in April unless I play in the Reno ruins everything game mode
I'm not ready bros

Don't worry nigger, I'm pretty sure theres some other black tumours at BlizzHQ that will print more bullshit cards so your forest nigger can stay cancerous

huh?
I'm talking about the celebration event where you got packs for logging in, not the voting packs

>wow+tcg
>/hsg/

sup cuckduin

That's literally your worst matchup

>implying Malf wasn't patrish before Jade

still lmaoing@urlife

How do I quit Hearthstone without feeling bad about missing quests? I only play to complete quests so I don't far too behind if next expansion fixes game.

you ____________________________just quit___________________________

Then I can never come back because I will be so far behind...

just play for fun

>come back
why would you?

The coming rotation will give you an excuse to dust a fuckton of epics and legendaries that are mediocre/bad (or even the good ones if you don't care about wild), and it also coincides with the Hall of Fame which will probably give you a few thousand dust.

Take a break, you'll have plenty of dust to catch up when you come back.

Maybe next expansion will fix all the problems in the game? I hate losing options in life.

Watch MTG streams or videos and see how much better the game is.

uninstall.

why the fuck can't I post an image

new rotation is going to be the easiest to get a new deck. Only unguro, koft, kobolds and new will be in standard. If you already have the major cards from last year you'll get shitloads of new expansion packs from arena.

The start of a standard rotation is literally the best time to get into the game.

How do we fix priest after Raza rotates? I feel that the class is balanced but just fucking awful to play against.

but rotating raza fixes priest.

blame hiroshimoot
not a coincidence this thread has 0 images other than op

Install Hearthstone on your phone, make an alt account, then once every 3 days log in and complete your quests against yourself. Shouldn't take more than half an hour, depending on the quests.

Nazdar!

>I feel that the class is balanced

It should remain in the gutter, but it will still be fine with retarded cards such as Duskbreaker and Autistic Screech at the helm

What the fuck will Priest be after the rotation?
No secret agent, dragonfire, Raza, Barnes, Y'shaarj... Basically all its archetypes die.

agro, big, or spell

Control priest with some dragons and removals.

Newish player here.
Huge MtG fan but not a fan of the online clients and love the mechanics of Hearthstone.
Played for about a month during the Cthun cthulhu dude giveaway.

Is there a newfag guide to getting into the game? So far I've been playing for fun in the Kobolds and Catacombs thing trying to beat all 8 levels.

the guide is save your time and money and don't play this shit game

fair, man.
I already know the burn and all-around faggotry of playing card games as I've played MtG for years.

But I'm genuinely interested in playing as I have fun with Hearthstone.

Trump (a popular Hearthstone streamer) had a good video series where he took a brand new account to the higher ranks, though to do it well you kind of needed to remake the account until you got a good Knights of the Frozen Throne legendary, ie Frost Lich Jaina. I doubt you'd want to do that at this point.

Otherwise beat all the PvE content for the gold, pack and legendary rewards, and generally Hunter is the cheapest class by far and still does very well, so try to make a deck for him.
There's a rotation coming soon, moving several older expansions out of Standard mode, so I wouldn't craft anything that costs a lot of arcane dust yet.

I unironically enjoy current handlock and jade druid because I get to play decks with no RNG to tell my friends stories about.

in that case just try to get a viable deck
old gods, karazhan and mean streets are all rotating soon while ungoro, kft and knc are going to remain for at least a year so prioritize those packs or the classic set
""""""""cheap"""""""" but viable decks include aggro druid and secret mage

playing this game f2p can be a pretty miserable experience though

As someone who also played a lot of MtG I'll make you a solid comparison. Hearthstone has a craft and dust system which has a few pros and quite a few cons. The pro is that duplicates and unwanted cards can actually be used for something. The fact that Blizzard is insanely jewish about disenchanting returns is an obvious con but unsurprising. The one that took me a little bit to realize is that all cards of the same rarity are the same cost to craft.

In MtG if you want to make a competitive deck you're usually going to have to spend a decent amount on the core cards, which due to their effectiveness in the meta are going to be more expensive than bulk rares/mythics. That also means that if you're looking through your MtG collection and see a mechanic that you like and start theorycrafting a deck for fun, the core cards of that deck are likely going to be found in the dollar bin instead of being 10+ bucks in the glass case. With hearthstone if you want to make a fun deck that interests you and is fun to play, you're buying those 10+ cards for your meme deck. It's hard to recommend this game to anyone but if you're going to go through with it, just go slow and steady. Be careful with what you craft and dust, since you can actually budget yourself decently well if you don't dust things only to craft them later.

I've spent $1,100 on one modern deck. Id I enjoy the game, I really don't mind spending money. The only issue is I'm playing MtG's equivalent of Standard, which bothers me.

Spending, what- $200-300 on a deck that rotates every 6 months sounds like a huge waste of money.

>It's hard to recommend this game to anyone but if you're going to go through with it, just go slow and steady.
This line stuck out to me the most. Why do you play the game, user? Genuine question. I'm about to be getting a job that pays quite handsomely but I'm looking for video games to keep my brain occupied so I don't waste resources at strip clubs and expensive restaurants while I'm traveling the country.

yout thought popping 4 secrets would save you, didn't you cunt
even if i lose at least I know I made my opponent's life miserable regardless

how long would it take me, someone who just downloaded the game, to learn the meta/get to legend? given that I played other tcgs before

I play because I enjoy making and playing decks I think up. I'm able to do that because I've been playing for years though. I can't imagine playing the way I do if I started within the past year, let alone if I was just beginning now.

garrosh looks better than muradin, but I like rocking the golden khadgar + tespa cardback

uninstall and never look back, seriously

>Learn the meta
less than a day, it's pretty straightforwad
>Get to legend
Depends how much money you spend and how much free time you have. It's not a matter of skill, but a matter of how good your deck is and how much you are willing to grind games out.

>The only issue is I'm playing MtG's equivalent of Standard, which bothers me.
it's also called standard in hearthstone
you can play wild instead but /hsg/ will make fun of you but being a legacy format it's pretty difficult to get into
it is possible to buy the cards and the wild adventures (naxx, blackrock and league of explorers) and wild card packs on the blizzard web store so don't be fooled to craft the cards individually just because the store isn't found in game
but this will also require a fair investment
while Hearthstone is very expensive to get into it doesn't require $2-300 a year to keep up, preordering each expansion (3x$50/year) is enough if with quests and stuff

>be gudd enough
a week
>get the cards required
if f2p many months, otherwise shelling out a few hundred $ will speed it up significantly

I only play Aggro Druid. It’s fun and the only real costs are Southsea Captains/Patches/Corridor Creepers

Don't listen to the shieldbearers, you can do it fine. If you're an experienced tcg player and you're aggressive in dusting for a competitive deck, you can reach legend in a month or 2.

those cards go in pretty much every deck so it's not even a real cost of the deck

>and you're aggressive in dusting for a competitive deck
why would anyone do this?
it just screws you over in the long term

are you EU or NA?
