discount cathouse posted:You can make the Last Attack with Leviathan who dredges on Attack and then Spam emotes while your opponent is at 0 health. I consider this the HS equivalent of a mortal kombat fatality move and thus completely acceptable and possibly even to be encouraged. Edit : especially if you do it with the rogue discover on honourable kill spell.

PneumonicBook posted:Brann should never have come back to the core set and it's not like there's some weird reason why. He limits design space and is too powerful but it seems like Team 5 enjoys the game being a swingy mess more often than not. Yeah just removing brann would be a pretty good fix and wouldn't cost them anything in dust refunds. They could even cycle in an interesting legendary (zephyrs?) to make up for it.

PneumonicBook posted:lol, let me tell you all about going 13-0 to Legend with Fel Relic Demon Hunter. As soon as you can leverage Relic of Dimensions the games over, you're ability to high roll is insane. That 13-0 was 1 Mage, 3 Hunters, 2 Priests, 1 Warlock, 2 Rogues, 2 Druids, 1 Demon Hunter and 1 Shaman, a pretty decent spread of classes. I Stopped last night at Rank 2 3 stars and finished tonight. This deck is strong and fun, lots of good synergies. Thanks!

The stag definitely needs a nerf imo. That plus the weapon is too much. I'd be quite keen for the theotar to be a 1/1 or cost more.

Scholtz posted:I wonder if a Mage card that did something along the lines of (very loosely worded here) "Cast X mana worth of spells targeting your hero, then deal double that damage to the enemy hero." would be fun/funny Would combo well with the 'can only take 1 damage at a time' card. Not sure it fits into the class theme though, self damage is more of a warlock thing

So basically if you want to play DK ever you need to drop the 2k gold? Or is there some other way to get their base set? Do we know if that replaces the mini set this time or if we're also getting that?

mcbexx posted:Yeah, I see people hero powering and letting the ghoul die without even going face. Or casting corpse explosion with 3 corpses and - I assume - wondering why the two 12/12s don't die. Also the game puts 3 DK decks in your collection to use that are probably not optimised and people will be using them to try out the class.

Yeah recent hand disruption mechanics make playaroud super important. Also the infuse mechanic encourages you to keep some cards in hand for a long time increasing the chance of disruption. Eg the main demon hunter deck right now only has 3 minions. One of them (xymox) you need to keep in hand while 5 of your generated minions die. The most common opponent deck I've faced with it this week (control demon knight) has potentially 3 different ways to ruin your hand (mutanis, theotar and patchwork). Or any deck using denathrius as a finisher (or any combo gimmick really) is super vulnerable to the same stuff. Mage also has a counter minion as well as counter spell. Hunter has really disruptive powerful secrets. avantgardener fucked around with this message at 23:03 on Dec 9, 2022 |

fanny packrat posted:In case anyone is playing this, I'm slowly figuring it out. Questline reward doesn't matter in most matchups, most of the time you can combo if you get discounts on spell damage and damage spells. Don't be afraid to use an All Fel Breaks Loose and some spell damage to handle early pressure (and usually get a full heal). Mark of Scorn is useful midgame to advance quest and maybe do some damage, but greeding it has been a mistake for me because inevitably the bottom of the deck is minion dense. Current list is below. It's fun, challenging (to me, an idiot), and it seems competitive. I'm romping through diamond with this deck. It's great fun.

Yeah basically that. It's usually over between T6-9. You don't always need to drop the quest reward, sometimes you have enough damage if you draw the right cards. The tradeable cards are important, you often get the quest reward then play it the next turn and have a few mana left to feng-shui your deck a bit by trading minions back in for a discount. Then you drop the minions and play all the spells on the following turn. You use the AoE and relic of extinction first so as much of the indirect damage hits the enemy. You use your health as a resource, your minions should go face unless there is a very favourable trade, you have up to 2x full heals so just need to avoid a combo/burst lethal. It's better to hold back low cost draw to make sure you hit the quest reward each turn you go for it, rather than draw a few each turn. The furys can be played whenever, they're usually just to thin out your hand so you don't end up over drawing.

# ¿ Dec 15, 2022 16:25 |

Yeah it's really a combo deck. As soon as you have discounted 2 spell damage minions, you have the aoe spell and a couple of other damage spells you drop the minions, clear the board with aoe so all the ' hits the lowest health enemy' stuff hits the enemy hero and win. You can easily do 30 or even close to 40 from hand. The rest of the deck is just there to draw and discount and to keep you alive.

Playing battlegrounds made me realise how much knowledge I'd internalised about hearthstone and the meta while I've been playing it. Like it seemed fun enough I just couldn't be bothered to learn which cards, combos and characters worked well together, countered each other etc as hearthstone already fills that niche for me.

Most of them get used a fair bit, but only 1? (Nellie?) has been nerfed and people don't really complain about them too much. Fairly well done I think especially given how complex they are as cards.

Doctor Spaceman posted:I have absolutely no idea how the meta shakeup is going to affect it but it's definitely a deck people have been sleeping on. Yeah it's also got some interesting decision making. I'm pretty sure evolving your hero power totem using the location is the right t2 play most of the time which feels like it should be weak. And there are several different win conditions you can cheat out without evolving huge boards, eg using bloodlust or the 'minions deal 3 damage when they die' card.
