I picked the Russian pro at random for the tourney because I didn't know any of the new crowd, I suppose he did quite alright? (6 packs)

I haven't looked into it myself, so is there anything stopping you from making two fresh Amazon accounts, getting the coin deal with each, and getting 80 packs for $50?


Account had to be created and purchased something prior to yesterday.

Got my 1st 80 gold challenge from Bjaelke

I'm saving my gold and dust for MSG expansion.

Is there any chance we're gonna get 10 free packs like WoTOG?

Someone just played Demon Fuse and Dark Bargain against me in Arena. I can't imagine a situation where either of those cards have been the best of 3 and yet he managed to pick and play both before turn 10.

Thanks to Amnesia, Got Chillmaw on my NA account, nothing worthwhile on any other server. I already have Chillmaw so that's 400 dust towards something in MSG, FeelsGoodMan.

I guess no reveals today? Next reveal on the site is happening tomorrow. I guess they took the election day off.

Today's reveal was the Enforcer, which was spoiled by Reynad's captions and then officially revealed late last night/early this morning for those not in an Asia timezone.

"Outplayed"

Sapped a Totem Golem and of course he had another one. I can't play 2 matches before playing against a fucking Shaman. I'm done with ladder. Fuck this.

These HS devs needs to learn from any decent competitive game on the market and do a real nerf. None of this "wait until it rotates out" BS. This single deck completely shuts down majority of the decks in the game. If Shaman wasn't so ridiculous the game would be in a great place as far as balance is concerned.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
why can you not pre purchase in-game?

Hard to say. Amazon has been doing coin deals but I would guess blizzard gets their cash money regardless.

In app purchases get a cut taken out of them though by the platform holder so maybe that is their logic.

anyone remember Menagerie Warden?

Me neither.
It's a card that occasionally comes on Ladder in Beast Druid and it blows you up sometime. The deck is around low tier 2 higher tier 3 status meaning definitely usable.

Obviously not Dr Balanced, Mysterious Challenger tier card that some people thought it would be (so overrated) but the card definitely pushed an archetype into relevancy and is a good card.

I think the lesson to learn here is that card that require something on board to be good need to be insane to be even usable especially expensive ones. That's why Huhuran isn't used despite having excellent stats for cost.

Beast Druid feels like one of those decks that is 1 powerful card away from ruining the meta. It feels like it has the tools mostly. There are some good beast drops for Druids and several of them are the 1-2-3 range which in theory should be the foundation of a powerful Tier 1 deck. Yet it just doesn't quite come together.

Maybe a card like Lunar Visions (card Draw and discount) will help the deck gets its legs under it. Who knows.

the stats don't seem that bad..

and if by any chance it is paired with a fiery war axe, it could buff it to 4/3, that's.. kinda big

With situational cards you have to think about the card in the average case, not the best case. That's why you and I had a more realistic prediction than some of the other streamers did. Yes, the card is insane with Stranglethorn Tiger. But it's conditional and in most other cases it's not too different from than Faceless Summoner.

Lots of people made the same mistake with Cho'Gall. They saw the nice synergy with Siphon Soul and didn't look beyond that. Some people are still refusing to let go of their initial review of that card to the point that they are still trying to evaluate expensive Warlock spells with the card in mind.
