  BRACKETSHearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft is an online trading card game made by Blizzard released in 2014 in which you can't trade cards, which has attracted the ire of many established fans of the genre as "a hideous mockery of CCG". It has also been called a mockery of first person shooters, tower defense games and haute cuisine. It is a game that costs approximately $150USD ~ the amount you spend on cheetos and mountain dew weekly in order to get through the threshold of enjoyment; as you watch your opponent do nothing for eight turns and then kill your rear end in a move more oppressive than Polpot's regime. It is available on PC, Mac, iOS, burger and Android, but if you play it you will experience a hellish burning like there are small bugs crawling inside your urethra. The game is heavily dependent on two factors: how much money you are willing to give Activision/Blizzard cooperatively, and how lucky you are playing the knife game with your genitals without cutting your own (or someone elses) dick off. In celebration of the mercy given to us by Mictlantecuhtli - the Aztec death god (blood for the blood throne) - we have decided to gather a group of goons together to play a friendly Cardstone tournament to learn more about the true nature of our mortal coil. You will watch us as we draw from Eric Dodds' advanced tarot roster to see if the Hierophant is still S-tier, alongside Yun from Street Fighter 3, and Scharlachrot from Arcana Heart 3 LOVE MAX!!!!! The format will follow the Hearthstone Official Conquest Format. It has that title because they tried to make a competitive format prior to Conquest and hosed it up. To find out the rules for Conquest, listen to this guy who sounds like a nerdier Kermit the frog talk about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hfGtSMPUMg The bracket will be double elimination and there will be a Challonge bracket hosted that you can follow from game to game. If you have any genuine questions about Cardstone and cannot find them in a google search consult the Blizzard subforum or play HuniePop or something. THIS GAME IS NOT FREE TO PLAY THE SAGES LIED OUR TORMENT IS UNENDING AND THE GOVERNMENT IS PUTTING ARSENIC IN OUR CHEM TRAILS Regards, with love, anger and all of our sorrow, Pins, Toddy, and Dryzen  (banner shamelessly stolen from reddit) Now on to some actual info: Unlike actual official Conquest rules we are not requiring a static deck list for the whole tournament. You only have to report your three decklists before each match. So change it up! Or, just play Patron, Secretdin, Dragon Priest, Midrange Druid, or Demon Handlock; we don't care! We are hoping to do a minimum of a 16 person tournament, I will very likely cut it off at 32 entrants, there is a sign up form here: http://goo.gl/forms/SdeYR7AMhj Either myself, RotationSurgeon, Toddy, or Dryzen will be doing the actual recording of matches, because when someone spectates both players simultaneously we can record both hands at the same time. Don't worry, we will not collude with your opponent. (We each also want to win the tournament) I am posting this today and sign ups will end on 12AM EST Sunday 10/18 and Brackets will be generated throughout that week. Prizes to be announced with secret prizes also going to happen. IT'S TIME FOR SOME VIDEOS Round 1 Matches Match 1 - Raldan Vs. Rather Watch Them Lists!

Looking forward to showing off just how terrible I am at this game. timezones should not be an issue, it's just there so we can figure out who will be awake to record your matches. Also in terms of random based decks i will be running one or both of these.

Just a quick heads up to anyone looking to play Grim Patron Warrior in the tournament that by the time we start patron will be nerfed (next Tuesday) to the point where it will be unplayable so start generating a back up plan everyone

One more thing I do not have a deadline on submitting your 3 deck lists for your first match just yet however if you would like to submit them early you can screenshot them in your collection screen and send them over to pins@pinsanddryzen.us Thanks Pins fucked around with this message at 21:17 on Oct 13, 2015 |

Yeah. not having many cards ends up being a cyclical thing with me. I don't have any cards to make the dumb gimmick decks I want, so I stop playing, so I don't get the dumb gimmick cards.

Let me take a moment to talk about creating decks. If you are having trouble getting ideas together you can check out the following resources. https://www.hearthpwn.com ~ Probably the most extensive set of user submitted decks. many of which have reached legend. https://www.tempostorm.com ~ Meta Snapshots as well as team TempoStorm submitted decks. Meta Snapshots are useful when playing ladder. https://www.hearthhead.com ~ Another smaller list of user submitted decks. some more creative ones here. https://www.teamarchon.com ~ Decks submitted by Team Archon members. Also a lot of strategy talk in terms of specific cards and whole decks. Edit: also wanna take a moment to say we are over 16 registrants now! we at this point and time are at 19. Thanks for signing up people! this is gonna be a ton of fun. Still have a few more days for sign ups though (= Pins fucked around with this message at 05:59 on Oct 15, 2015 |
