wow I had a post but the forum broke....

uhhh. I got to rank 16 but its gotten harder from here.

Priest control gave me trouble, got 1 guy to 1life (night blade was an out as well as mortal strike), other guy had back to back Sunwalkers (I have no silence)


Hunter rush is broken as shit etc, Misdirection while racing is retarded especially against warrior weapons. buzzard into unleash the hounds
draw two timber wolves was fucking dumb too, and even then I was only 1 short of lethal the following turn (because of the misdirection which made my worgen suicide into my weapon).

hard to tune decks to metagame because its so varied.

Maybe yeti is what the deck wants because you just want to brawl with guys sometimes and have the best last threat... so its like an aggro-control deck (because weapons are awesome and versatile)...

hmm

[Captain Murphy]

I'd give it a try. Try defender of argus as well so you can play some critical taunt against the hunter deck, save weapon swings for killing creatures

[Captain Murphy]

I'm playing a control warlock and its beating hunter rush by just supplying taunt and enough silence to deal with threats

[Captain Murphy]

They usually waste the explosive traps on my 0/2 totem coin creatures

[Captain Murphy]

You could probably rock a single molten giant who would cost 0 quite quickly against aggro

ok dear god now were just going full value midrange mode....


theres got to be a line somewhere

[Captain Murphy]

I mean its just 2 midrange cards. Not to mention with 2 creatures thats an extra 2 damage

[Self Medicated]

I don't think decklists are really anything written in stone yet. The meta is pretty much wide open. I'm actually having fun playing this game.

[hamfactorial]

I need to spend some time grinding to get cards. Seems like this is a good time to be getting in.

[Self Medicated]

Ham, shoot me your BattleTag. Or add me. Whichever.

[hamfactorial]

I don't know my tag offhand, I'll add you tomorrow morning while I'm hanging in my hooch cave

[hamfactorial]

Added everyone here with a battle tag. Mine's hamfactorial#1887

I'm going to spend a few mornings grinding through the first levels to unlock characters, etc.

3 straight losses in the arena last night. It was a fucking massacre. I thought I had done a good job choosing cheap creatures with good abilities. My curve looked good. I was wrong. Every game I would run out of steam. I had one opponent down to 2 life and he came back to win. I think one of my big problems was not enough card draw.

[hamfactorial]

Started grinding casual matches with my super terrible budget Warrior deck for gold, won enough to buy a few packs and completed a few quests. I routinely go up against guys with decks full of Epic and Legendary cards, which seems odd. Am I just getting matched against these guys because I haven't played enough games and my ELO isn't accurate?

DLing~~~~

[hamfactorial]

~~~ skeet skeet

[Kazekirimaru]

I better after all the hype this got

[Kazekirimaru]

enjoying it so far

[TubeHunter]

Name; Tubehunter #1225, add me

no idea how ELO works for ham, but warrior is the shit so it's k

[Link]

also scrubs can buy packs for dollar signs n get legendairies

[hamfactorial]

Played some Arena and went 3-3 then 2-3 despite having no idea what I was doing most games. Seems decent!

[Kazekirimaru]

I still need to unlock all the decks. Stuck on Paladin.

[Checkbox]

Just play the AI to get to level 10

[hamfactorial]

You'll level up faster once you unlock the expert AI. Just play each hero type until you get all the cards, then switch to the next hero. I think you still get points even when you lose.

[Mcdonalds]

You do

You also get XP playing against friends

[hamfactorial]

I've been doing the quests in the morning to earn gold, then spending it in Arena.

I'm not good at the deck building aspect yet because my traditional idea of a mana curve is too low (games frequently last until and past turn 10), and I frequently get tricked because I don't know what all the cards in the set are.

[Mcdonalds]

I haz leeroy jenkins now

[Self Medicated]

I haz leeroy jenkins now

I don't know any of the cards. What's his stats?

[Captain Murphy]

Always pick something that will 2 for 1, and only pick the best spells of a class

Only thing I was missing

That's generally the path I take (draft a Jund deck), but I tend to lose to decks with a lot of hero synergy.

I think that looking up a typical winning curve will
help a lot.

I've been destroying stuff with Priest decks. Putting down a creature with taunt -> buffing health -> healing it every turn with 1-3 "whenever a minion is healed, draw a card" creatures on the board is goodstuff, apparently.

[Self Medicated]

Kaze, shoot me your BattleTag when you get a chance.

[LP, of the Fires]

Did one hearthstone draft with a buddy and we won 8 games using a warrior playing what I would only call an agro deck. Being good at magic makes you good at hearthsonte...

Just downloaded the game today and it's been fun so far.

Battle tag Lauphiette. My name is so awesome for always being available.

LP, your BattleTag should have the # sign followed by 4 numbers. For example, mine is SlfMedicated#1279.
