Does anyone think Priestess of Fury is line for a nerf? I have a few extra copies and although it's only a rare I'm still tempted to hang on to them. To me that card feels like bullshit. Haha, I just pulled a Lurker Below from Dragon's Hoard vs Spell/Token Druid, dropped 9 copies into my deck with Togglwaggle Scheme, and drew 3 costing zero with Galakrond. Legitimately felt embarassed doing that to the poor guy. kaesarsosei fucked around with this message at 11:31 on Apr 26, 2020 |

To me that card feels like bullshit. Priestess is way, way too good. 1 extra mana for the 6 damage each turn compared to the classic 6/7, and being a demon is in no way a disadvantage now that sacpac is nerfed. If anything Demon is just one of the better tribes flat out now. I'd consider a legendary with priestesses stats to be good!

Made standard legend with Face Hunter. 0 legendaries required (although 2 epic cards are). Final run was nonstop Galk Rogue and Tempo DH. I think I played those matchup like 10 times at rank Diamond 1. ### Face Hunter # Class: Hunter # Format: Standard # Year of the Phoenix # # 2x (1) Arcane Shot # 2x (1) Dwarven Sharpshooter # 2x (1) Leper Gnome # 2x (1) Rapid Fire # 2x (1) Toxic Reinforcements # 2x (2) Explosive Trap # 2x (2) Kobold Sandtrooper # 2x (2) Pack Tactics # 2x (2) Phase Stalker # 2x (2) Scavenger's Ingenuity # 2x (3) Animal Companion # 2x (3) Augmented Porcupine # 2x (3) Eaglehorn Bow # 2x (3) Kill Command # 2x (4) Mok'Nathal Lion # AAECAR8AD6gCtQPJBJIF7Qb+DOyWA/OnA/uvA/yvA4WwA864A6S5A/a6A/+6AwA= # # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone Mulligan vs Everyone: Toxic Reinforcements > Leper Gnome > Phase Stalker > Scavenger’s Ingenuity > Eaglehorn Bow. Mulligan vs DH: keep explosive trap. It absolutely destroys them. Do not play it early (turn 4 is about right). It’s your only way to keep their board in check, but it also absolutely crushes them. Gameplay: Go Face. Always use all your mana every turn (including pinging their face with rapid fire / arcane shot). All games will be over before turn 10.

I hate playing against priests and rogues. Rogues because they pull so many cards out their butts. Priests because those games last forever.

Toshimo posted:My experience has been that unless you have very specific class/unit combos (Deryl/Pyramad/Reno, mostly), the best choice is almost always to take the best stats available to you at each given point until 5 and let your T5 units inform the rest of your build. Stay healthy, keep strong lategame stuff (Bronze Warden, Spawn of Nzoth, Deflect-o-Bot), keep GOOD doubles, but aggressively tavern (on 4/7/10, sooner if you have a bad tavern and can sell a bad unit). Keep strong synergies, but don't focus on "a build" until you see what T5 gives you. Stuff like Bran, Baron, and Lightfang are strong enough to bring up medium units, but if you don't hit them, you are better off having generically good stuff and high health so you can start shopping for T4/5s that will carry you like Goldrin/Razorgore/Hydra/Drakonid. can you explicate on the specific daryl/pyramad/reno thing

With Pyramad you want to HP every turn, preferably on units that can last the entire game. Microbot, wrath weaver and the 1/2 murloc are your top early targets. Deryl can stay at Tavern 2 or 3 for a while because you have exactly 4 minions so you can buy 3, sell them and get yourself a giant minion. Stuff with DS is good or units that get a benefit from high stats. Or important units like waxdread too so they don't get sniped. Reno IDK because I usually lose with him, but I guess you want to get a solid minion ASAP and make it gold, so maybe you want to level the tavern aggressively.

If you're in the mood for an extremely wacky combo, Ysiel is great with none other than Arch-Thief Rafaam! You play Aviana, Kun, Ysiel, Brann, then play Rafaam for two 1-mana Timepiece of Horror (10 damage divided among enemy characters). You can then play a Brewmaster for 2 more Timepieces. Definitely not better than your standard Azalina/Togwaggle combo, but it has some serious style points.

TURGID TOMFOOLERY posted:Why is it considered easier to get legend in wild than standard? A nontrivial percentage of people in wild ranked, even high ranked, play decks they find fun not just the best deck over and over. So if you want to play the strictly best deck you can often climb faster because other people are playing suboptimal decks because it's more fun.

TURGID TOMFOOLERY posted:Why is it considered easier to get legend in wild than standard? Wild is going to always have certain cards that are perpetually powerful for as long as they remain untouched. And once you have a solid core for one archetype, you’re practically set for life... or however long until it gets nerfed or power creeped into obsolescence. Once you’ve got that core figured out, you’ve got room to either refine it further to be even better at whatever it’s good at, or you can branch out into all kinds of weird tech choices, alternate win conditions, etc. that Standard doesn’t have access to.

Definitely keep/mull for Hand of Guldan as well. I know it feels weird to keep a 6-mana card, but just pretend it's a 0-mana card. If you already have one you can keep Expired Merchant. Depending on matchup you can keep one good 1-drop, otherwise mull everything.

When this deck sets up, it's over in less than 10 minutes, love it! Thanks for posting.

I'm at a conundrum. I've always enjoyed this game, and was contented to reach "Dad Legend". Now that the gates are opened up for easier LEgend, I tried to make it but got stuck at Diamond 1, 2 stars three times and have currently slipped back to Diamond 5. At this point I'm not having much fun and only want to get Legend since they may make it harder again next month. I'm feeling pretty bummed, guess I always did suck at the game beyond an amateur armchair level.

I'm at the same point and same "dad legend" skill. IDK I'm trying focus on learning from my bad turns and sometimes forcing myself to try small variations in cards. The goal is to remember it's an overgrown pooping game and still have fun. Also, statistically, if you can't play a ton of games, a lot is just variance. You'll go up and down until you get the right sequence of ups and Bam you're there.

Pretty much the same sentiment here re: ranking up. I decided I was going for Diamond 10, got it, and now I'll just gently caress around and learn to play new decks. If I can take that discard zoolock deck to D5, great. If I can't, who cares. I'm not great at this game and I don't have the time to spend getting good. This game (https://hsreplay.net/replay/V6svRduidTLHWaRWHAmckS) got me my first-ever instant friend request. I didn't see it until after I'd played another game, and by then he had logged off. I wonder what he wanted to tell me!

Please forgive the newb question, but I just came back after a long break. There's no way to craft the Galakrond's Awakening cards right? I have to pay the money for the adventure? Also I thought they stopped doing these adventures, are they going to be a regular thing again along with 3 full expansions a year? e: to clarify I meant the adventure and not hero cards
