These recent arena metas have had large class imbalances, so it's worth looking at the overall class winrates on hsreplay.net if you're trying to win. For instance, the top class atm is mage at 52.2%, while rogue is all the way down at 42.1%. The difference is probably less wide for a given player, but it's still big.

I don't follow arena as sharply, but has mage EVER been sub-par in it?

There's also an offer at the end to (potentially) have a zoom call with Devs and you get 20 packs as compensation for such. I did not opt, as I had said "the pass is vomit coming out a dog's rear end" and I don't think I can elaborate further. :shrug:

More than anything, I am impressed with them rolling out death night as a class. especially considering how much legwork it seems it'll have to put into it moving forward. The OverWatch and world of Warcraft developers seem to be loving the dog non-stop. meanwhile, hearthstone doesn't seem to be suffering from that as much. except for maybe the new monetization garbage.

My big beef is that construct quarter still being a menace in duals. The "start with your class location" makes it oppressive when most DK duels deck have at least one or two 1cost minions. T1 4/5 minion with rush is not cool even by wacky duel standards 😞.

drat, this was a datamined card from 2018. Guess they've had the ETC idea kicking around for a while!

There's quite a few mechanics that came to be in that list (Rattlegore, "guess the discover and get a copy", reordering deck by cost). Also some of them I'd dread EVER showing up

Now that the dust has settled a bit in Duels, I've been loving the B/U DK deck that has showed up. It doesn't whiff with incorrect passives, doesn't require a Correct Combo that annihilates you in one turn. It's just a consistently strong deck that can take you to high wins. And, in my case, my third ever 12-wins.

If they really wanted to capture the Diablo experience for this Tavern Brawl, you should only get a single common card for beating it but there should be a chance of getting a Standard Pack. And you should be able to replay the brawl any number of times for the same reward.

The Choose your Titan thing is up. You vote for a Titan and then the highest voted ones advance to the next round. There are 3 rounds and 3 votes, you get 1 pack for voting and another if your Titan advances.

Everyone of the subreddit is voting for Sargeras to rig the vote, and he’s the most notable Titan by far anyway, so I highly recommend voting for him too if you want the max amount of packs

Here’s your normal pre-expansion reminder that if you want to maximize your progress on the next reward track, complete all your outstanding quests today and then don’t play again until the expansion launches on Tuesday. This will set you up with a full array of quests and allow you to blow through the first 20-30 levels of the new track in an hour or so.

Additionally, since the expansion launches on the first of the month, if you wait to log in on Tuesday until after the expansion goes live (usually 1 pm ET/10 am PT), your reward chest will also contain new cards (assuming you already have all or most of the standard-legal rares and epics). It’s not much, but it tickles the optimization part of the brain.

Despite my wallet being intact, I don't have the impulse control for all that. Gimme dat gold

Am I the only one thinking the activation zone for the Forge cards is a bit finicky, either to small or to slow to register?

A couple of times now I have dragged the card over the deck and cast the spell instead of forging it when letting go.

It's felt comparable to tradable cards. But I've been doing it mostly with minions so far.
