Hey guys, you're probably a little sick of these questions but I just started. Got 17 Base set packs, 26 Darkness parks and 15 Bahamut packs. From those I opened 6 legendaries:
Merlin
Lord of the Flies
Enstatued Seraph
Odin
Dark Angel Olivia
Sahaquiel (Animated)
I also opened 29 golds:
Front Lines
Timeworn Mage Levi
Selwyn's Command x2
Secrets of Erasmus
Urd
Lucious, Goblin Slayer x2
Mastema
Arcane Enlightenment
Elf Girl Liza
Dale Masamune
Castle in the Sky
Dire Bond
Righteous Devil
Ceridwen
Athena
Deathly Tyrant
Kaguya
Ice Blade Warfiend
Anne, Belle of Mysteria
Polyphonic Roar
Valhallan General x2
Archangel Reina x2
Azazel x2
Incandescent Dragon
Should I reroll or does this seem like a good start?

I think it will come back soon. They are still doing some server-maintenance since Ranked isn't available yet either :/
The quality of your legendaries is pretty high, but you can definitely do better. I managed to get 13 legendaries with a reroll yesterday, so you should aim for 10 or better.
They did remove the feature entirely (it was mentioned in the RoB notes originally posted on December 19th or so). In order to link an account through iOS to other platforms you need to link through Facebook first.

So it seems like if one wants to get it from iOS to Steam, one needs to go
iOS -> FB -> Android -> Steam
While a hell of a process, the easiest way of accomplishing that would be using an Android emulator like Bluestacks I imagine.
It's unfortunate that they don't specify what the unforeseen circumstances leading to this are.

I'm sensing a solid compensation for that 
I've tried arena and Dragoncraft seems very impressive after expansion - especialy those Wyverns which produce cost 1 damage spells and they have impressive stats - you can trade them 3:1 usually on evolve or just get additional fodder for discard effects.

Casual is even more difficult than ranked. More likely to find better players

Note taken!
I feel it's been out of whack for a while. I used to be C1 at the time matched against A0 in casual.

Some card effects are bugged. Probably not game-breaking or consistently bugged. So rather than disable the cards, they just won't let them into ranked.

My first non-Dragoncraft 5-0!
Weirdest curve ever. I had one 3-drop and one 4-drop. Kind of luckily, I went first 4 times. This is good for me because I have no good turn 4 evo, and I was able to spam 2-drops and gain early tempo and overpower their turn 4 evo (won vs three turn 4 floral fencers!) My mid-game was weak, but if I tempoed out early, it would be ok. Having three of the 5 mana removals AND Odin AND Bahamut secured my lategame.
I drew Bahamut, but never had a chance to play him. Just having him in my hand was good, because I could make aggressive face plays. If the opponent ever faced me back, I could've punished with Bahamut.
The one time I used the Swordcraft aoe, I DIDN"T KNOW IT HIT ALLIES TOO. Luckily, I *only* killed a 1/2 and a 2/1, but that was in my 5th game and it almost gave me a heart attack.

I don't think they've ever given out Crystals. Only gold, packs, or individual cards. Gotta buy the premium decks with real money unfortunately.
The 500 Gold New Year's bonus is available, so go get yours today!
Good work on the Take Two. The first thing that I noticed about that card was the "ALL other followers" wording. It's still a seriously strong card for Midrange and Control Swordcraft though.
Lumination
'enry 'ollins
Not sure about midrange unless you can target Saber when she has the buff, which I assume you cannot. Definitely strong for control though. Maybe strong enough to make control swordcraft an actual thing.
Edit: Welp, you definitely can target Saber hehe. In my defense, I don't actually own her!
Cyclone Blade saved my ass a few times in a recent T2... I went 4-1 in the end, being beaten by a Blood deck in my final match.
Edit: Alright, up to B0. Lost first trial, but won my next two. Sucked for my first one. Went 1st, and then mulligan'd a 9 | 3 | 9 (the 9s being Olivias) and then drew a DoD. Horrible curve (or rather lack of one), lol
Just under 600 pts more for Liza sleeve.

Just got into a situation that required some mechanics knowledge that wasn't immediately available to me.
If I use an enhanced Art of the Ninja on Khawy, do I keep my Master Ninja?
My intuition tells me no since the ninja should be summoned before Last Words resolves, but years of HS has screwed with expectations.

My intuition tells me no since the ninja should be summoned before Last Words resolves, but years of HS has screwed with expectations.
So what was the result? I never played much HS, but for some reason I was thinking that Khawy would be destroyed prior to the Ninja Master summon.
If the timing works the way that the cards are worded, the sequence of events should be as follows:
1. Art of the Ninja kills Khawy.
2. Khawy's Last Words trigger.
3. The Master Ninja gets summoned.
The reason for this is the wording on the Art of the Ninja, "Then summon a Master Ninja". This means that the actions don't take place simultaneously, so all triggered effects will happen before the Master Ninja shows up. It's nice clear wording not like what you might see in less well designed cards, and by this, I mean Hearthstone.

Dunno. Chickened out and made a sub-optimal play haha.
I mean it all depends on whether or not "then" creates a new stack. Idk of any existing examples of this, so the jury is kind of out.
Yeah! I'm back in the heady ranks of D0!
More seriously, I'm getting showered by legendaries right now. Just today, I opened an Otohime and a Dragonsong Flute!

If this were Magic, it definitely would. Look at a card like Flicker: "Exile target nontoken permanent, then return it to the battlefield under its owner's control." If it had meant a simultaneous effect, then the word "then" wouldn't be present. In other words, Hearthstone is poisoning your reasoning skills!

I'd wait - it might be important finisher for discard dragon.

600 crystals for 4$ - one time deal
Crap and I just spent 21 on 1200 package to get 3 prebuilts.
On the other hand that alt art Forte is very tempting

Precon is much better than 10 packs - 2 legendaries +5 golds is much more than what You would get in 10 packs statistically

The only question is which precon to get.
In terms of pure value/playability of cards I don't have, Shadow is most worth it followed by Forest, but I feel Forest can't really be played until I get 3 Ancient Elves (or at LEAST 2) and the same applies to Cerberus. I also hate the Cerberus art. Why does Dragon have so many bad golds? =(

I bought the Dragon pre-con day one just for alternate Forte, lol
Also was just playing a Forest deck I put together, went up against an Earth Rite Golem deck, and damn that thing wrecked me hard. After turn 5 I just couldn't clear the constant Guardian Golems my opponent was putting down, and when I got close they'd just Earth Rite + Curse my area to banish all my followers. I was annoyed, but I was impressed.

and I guess I was glad to be against a Rune that wasn't Daria or D.Shift, lol

Rune is the craft I want to experiment the most with since they have so many possibilities: DShift, Daria, ER (with golems focus or not!) and enough draw to facilitate fun combos. Someday, I'll have the cards to do so.

Well I just opened some more RoB packs and got my third Sahaquiel... now if only I played a Neutral deck, lol
Those are all good legendaries. The issue is they're all for different crafts (well Moon Al-mi'raj and Seraph are both Haven). Consider sharing what golds you opened?

I'll just list all the golds I have right now
Dragonnewt Scholar, Shadow Reaper, Shadow Reaper (Animated), Devourer of Heavens, Rogue's Creed, Sadistic Night, Uriel, Dark Offering (Animated), Elf of the Gemstones, Breath of the Salamander, White Paladin, Midnight Haunt, Urd, Goblinbreaker Teena, Noble Fairy, Will of the Forest, Rimewind, Erinyes (Animated), Arcane Enlightenment, Deathly Tyrant, Kaguya, Frontguard General, Ancient Forest Dragon, Ceridwen, Mastema, Calamitous Curse, Balor, Valhallan General, Juno's Secret Laboratory (Animated), Fangblade Slayer
For the most part playing the solo campaign with auto generated decks and figuring it out from there
On the one hand, these legendaries are all pretty good, on the other hand, you didn't get very many of them and they're all for different decks. Also, the golds you got don't synergize with them very well, so it's probably better to reroll. If you're going to do that, you should aim for at least 10 legendaries.

Well, it if helps, I just gotten an Eidolon of Madness.
I guess Havencraft it is for now.

Forest second time in a row ? That's a bit unfair.
Holy moly! The last pack I just opened had a Crystalia Tia and a Pascale in it! My luck with legendaries has really soared ever since I rerolled.
EDIT: I have two Pascales now, so I had to go make an Earth Rite deck. I feel sorry for my last opponent - he was facing the opposite a 24/16 Crest Wizard that he had no way of killing.
