^^^ It works for all rarities.Bastastic posted:I don't get how this card duplicate protection thing works. I have 7 animated broomsticks. It works until for each rarity until you have 2 of each from a pack. So you have all the commons from Scholomance. You get all the commons and rares really quick now with the dupe protection, and since there are so few in each set. Note that if you dust cards you won't get those in packs until you've gotten the rest of that rarity.

Card protection is only within any given rarity, not the entire set. For example, you won't get a rare until you've gotten two of each possible one. Ditto for common/epic/legendary.

If dupe protection was for an entire set you'd get all the cards within 27 packs. What a world that would be. I guess in that case packs would cost like $10 each.

I'm really confused about why Secret Passage isn't like "discard your hand. Draw 3 cards" Like I haven't played for a while and I saw a new expansion so I watched a highlight clip and it's all like turn 4 kills, turn 5 OTKs, turn 3 give all minions in your hand deck and battlefield +4/+4 and then summon two 5 cost dudes with that +4/+4 and give them rush for some reason which draws you cards? It really doesn't seem like fun. Is it fun? I saw someone played a Priest legendary that swapped hands with his opponent and used that to play cards needed for his combo and that seemed fun I suppose but only in a "if I can't have fun neither can you" way. Is it possible that after 37 years Hearthstone has lost its way? Has power creep wormed its tentacles into this game?! Fun theme and art design though! The themes are often quite good this one is fun. edit: why would they nerf Innervate then print Lightning Bloom?! Tom Tucker fucked around with this message at 01:53 on Aug 8, 2020 |

Huzzah! Managed to climb from Diamond 5 to Legend with a variation on the war crimes priest I saw posted here. Mindrender Illucia is by far the best card ever released. I hate not being able to affect my opponent so I love it. Haven't enjoyed the game this much since way back when mill rogue was playable in standard or the howlfiend plus treachery combo. Wretched Tutor is also being slept on, with the number of zero and one cost spells being run in this deck it makes activating it super easy. With all the aggro running around extra board clears plus a body is very useful. So far no decks that I seem to be weak against. Was originally worried about big druid, but they dont actually have that many threats, making it easy to steal their stuff. ### Custom Priest # Class: Priest # Format: Standard # Year of the Phoenix # # 2x (0) Lazul's Scheme # 1x (0) Silence # 2x (1) Disciple of Galakrond # 2x (1) Renew # 2x (1) Wave of Apathy # 1x (2) Mindrender Illucia # 2x (2) Sethekk Veilweaver # 2x (2) Shadow Word: Pain # 1x (3) Apotheosis # 2x (3) Breath of the Infinite # 1x (3) Shadow Madness # 2x (4) Cabal Acolyte # 2x (4) Wretched Tutor # 1x (5) Convincing Infiltrator # 2x (5) Time Rip # 2x (6) Cabal Shadow Priest # 1x (6) Kronx Dragonhoof # 1x (7) Galakrond, the Unspeakable # 1x (7) Soul Mirror # AAECAa0GCNwBpQmClAPjtAOvugPIvgPIwAP70QMLkALXCrCRA9qsA/KsA82vA5O6A5u6A5zNA8vNA+PRAwA= # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone e: Also Wretched Tutor plus Apotheosis against a wide board feels amazing.

Beating an aggro rogue with pens to the face. Feels good man. Even played against a priest jerk that screwed up my win condition.  It don't matter though. I'll make my own win condition, with blackjack and hookers.   I dunno how if this'll be any good when the meta stabilizes, but it sure is fun!

Mindrender is purely for breaking up combo. I basically only play it against mages and demon hunters. Sphere of sapience is so incredibly busted in a a 30 card all gas format. Scry is strong in magic but many times at best you're filtering for or away from lands. In hearthstone you're filtering for the "cards that are good in this matchup". I think this card would be a difficult decision at around 2 durability.

I feel like I’ve always got so many good cards in this deck that swapping gives them things I don’t want to :/ Giving the agro player a bunch of control cards doesn't really help their game plan most of the time. I had one take my galakrond but I was like who cares you have 1 card left in your deck to my 5. Want to spend your turn board wiping with my leftover plague of death? You probably helped me out and then /I/ get to reload first. There are definitely some classes it's a dead card against. But others it completely ruins their day - especially combo decks, which control decks are notoriously weak against.

I feel like I’ve always got so many good cards in this deck that swapping gives them things I don’t want to :/ Depends on the matchup. Against aggro decks if you're starting hand is all high cost cards it can be worth using early, essentially stalling the board and stealing some of their low cost cards to drop on the board. Against mage I usually wait to the later turns, if you manage to hit their apprentices you can empty their entire hand. Basically you need to have a solid understanding of the matchup and what their decks are trying to accomplish. Also don't be too greedy with your cards, spend them as you get them in order to keep the board. This also ensures that when you swap they are limited with what cards are left.

So after playing it in arena I think Fishy Flyer might be good enough for constructed. 4 mana 4 attack rush is already decent and you get two of them for one deck slot.

I was kinda expecting (and hoping) Pure Paladin would be a solid Tier 2 off-meta pick, but right now it's shaping up to be the new Secret Paladin in its ubiquitousness.

Not sure if it was a buffadin or a pure pally, but I "won" this game in the late game. I shame conceded thinking I missed lethal because I was so fixated on getting it through my gnomes (quest was at 2/3). There were about 5 different ways to get lethal, but I missed the most obvious one, which was just to attack with weapon into the taunt then attack face. I know no one else seems to play hunter here, but I think this deck has potential. At least as a C-tier fun deck. It's gotten me to rank 3 diamond so far, and some of those were against decent decks! Even games I thought were a loss, I've managed to pull a win out through Pen Flinger value and clutch Krolusks. It's also pretty skill testing, mentally and reflex-wise, due to how the weapon works and Pen Flinger math/apm. Here's what I've settled on so far. It's nearly the same as my post on the last page, but I didn't realize I was running two weapons instead of two Wandmakers. ### Spell Flinger # Class: Hunter # Format: Standard # Year of the Phoenix # # 2x (1) Adorable Infestation # 2x (1) Arcane Shot # 1x (1) Demon Companion # 2x (1) Dwarven Sharpshooter # 1x (1) Intrepid Initiate # 2x (1) Pen Flinger # 2x (1) Rapid Fire # 1x (1) Toxic Reinforcements # 1x (1) Tracking # 1x (1) Trueaim Crescent # 2x (1) Wolpertinger # 2x (2) Manafeeder Panthara # 1x (2) Scavenger's Ingenuity # 2x (2) Wandmaker # 1x (3) Ace Hunter Kreen # 1x (3) Animal Companion # 1x (3) Kill Command # 1x (4) Arcane Fletcher # 1x (4) Krolusk Barkstripper # 1x (4) Marked Shot # 1x (5) Cobalt Spellkin # 1x (7) Vereesa Windrunner # AAECAR8OqAK1A5cI5pYD6JYD+5YDhbADgbED/7oD3MwD5MwD4c4DgtAD49QDCO0G7JYD/K8Dn80Dos4D+84D/tEDudIDAA== # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone

Aaod posted:I think the buff paladin deck is starting to take off and become super popular anyone have a clue as to what counters it? No joke, I think the answer is War Crimes Priest. Not only are you killing their poo poo, you're stealing it so the buffs count towards your strength. I've not had an issue against Paladin at all - aside from those games where I draw high curve and they draw low, but those just happen sometimes.

That is what I have been mostly playing but it takes a lot of effort to take them down such as the last game I had vs one it went to fatigue and me killing his minion with 5 librams on it then swapping hands and using all of it on my own minions to run him out of cards. I guess a high effort answer is an answer at least though.

Heh. Boobs.   Just noticed it completely by chance after opening some more packs. I'm definitely experiencing a shittier drop rate for legendaries this time around, Epics are plentiful, which isn't so helpful seeing as I managed to score all of them in my bundle packs.

teacup posted:What’s the point of the wolpertinger in the deck? It's a strong 1-drop, especially with Adorable Infestation. It's also not a bad draw from Scavenger's Ingenuity, which can make for a powerful turn 3. This deck wants early board control, efficient trading, and chip damage so that they're in burst range in the mid-late game. Lesser uses, but still nice, are that it's an easy activator for Kill Command and Arcane Fletcher.

Since Mindrender breaks every combo deck, I've been trying other stuff in wild and just lost as tempo hunter playing against it. It's way too low costed for what it can do; it should at least cost 6 or more. It's an auto win basically versus every deck.

Tom Tucker posted:I'm really confused about why Secret Passage isn't like "discard your hand. Draw 3 cards" I've only played about 20 matches yet, and the games are usually not that fast. Of course it is possible to play the 7 mana summon 2 5 mana beasts on turn one if you have coin/bloom/bloom/innervate like that one streamer had, but those games are rare. That said, the meta is faster than it was before release, but it'a always this way. The first days are for aggro to shine before the slower decks figure out the exact cards to compete with the fast aggressive decks.
