I'm so happy. It can actually happen! It can actually even happen to me!
I was playing my paladin against this rank 5 mage in ranked mode. I got a bunch of 5+ cost cards in my opening hand.
The mage starts with mana worm. I play a token minion because it's all I can do.
The mage throws out a Sorcerer's Apprentice and arcane missiles that kills my token.
I topdeck a knife juggler and I kinda have to place it out there because I got nothing else.
The mage throws out another Apprentice and then frostbolts my Knife Juggler.
Long story short: At turn 5 I had 4 health left and the mage had 30.
I won the fight! I had 16 health left at the end of the fight when the mage died

Okay, I just destroyed a Zoo deck with a stealing Priest deck. Then the Warlock apparently tries to create some sort of timer bug while pointing something. Nothing happens though and when it failed (he tried this two turns), he rage quitted (in a weird way too since I didn't get my win immediately, was stuck for a while). So pathetic if this happens to be a bug in the past and has since patched or something. Take your loss shitty lock clone of thousands other locks. It's much harder to play a 100% reactive Priest than to play a Zoo Warlock. Merku of EU (gonna name him to shame him).
And I'm pretty sure he tries to exploit something since his weird pointers was after I got a value Holy Nova.

had what I thought was a good mage deck just got 1-3 in Arena. Probably my worst Arena run in a month.
But the pack made it all worth it

Priest plays Rag
I double faceless it and my rags kill his.
That should have been it, esp since i had another rag in the deck.
But he also still had a faceless and 2x mc.
Didnt know people run with 2 mc
See the last page. Only the worst of priests.
Sounds like a server issue or disconnect bug. Especially if you are on EU as I've heard your servers are awful.
I'm almost certain its at 2am CET, so in less than 4 hours.
With a massive dose of disrespect.

why would anyone need 2 master chiefs?

Because Halo 2 was clearly the best? Wait...
For very bad fan fiction of course.

I think you mean the best fan fiction?
I think i will switch back to zoo just to punish them.

My fav card in game. So many rogues and locks shut down this week. I think they honestly forget since it's usually been up for a while. Smart players don't blow their load before procing it.

What's rage quit?
It's quitting out of anger/rage. Basically someone's beating you and you say "Screw this, I quit!"

How can you know why the other player quit? Maybe he just values his time...
I always quit when i see I have no chance of winning.
Like everyone else on the internet, you assume. Some are more obvious than others though.
Yeah, if the match is over in the next turn I just let my opponent beat me, but if I see there's nothing I can do and still have plenty of life I just quit

I really love the Priest, because with a couple of mind steals and whatnot, you can end up pretty much playing your opponent's deck.

There's a unique message that comes up if they quit the game instead of conceding.

3 of my 4 Legendary cards came from packs after a terrible Arena runs.. feels weird to be honest.

I usually spam sorry to them when I think they should rage quit instead of taking this pyro to da face.

Yes. The minion's aoe procs after spells take affect. Which is why pyro + equality works.

It's only bm cause he plays out every single spell on lethal. Which isn't even bm. Get shit on, opponent!

There need to be more cards that destroy secrets. Would Make facing hunters more tolerable .
Make a card ike Acidic swap ooze

If there is a counter to secrets that would make them fairly useless. Gotta remember that they are spells but they don't do anything until activated on an opponent's turn. Why do secrets need to be counterable by a neutral when pretty much every spell in the game cannot be countered (except by counterspell, and flares countering every other secret than counterspell).
Already secrets can be played around to minimize their impact, or negate them entirely. I don't think they really need a hard counter. Although I could see some classes getting mechanics to counter them, like flare. But a neutral minion to throw in to any deck? Would make secrets pretty bad.
Also, unlike secrets, weapons can be used the round they are played reducing the impact of ooze to some degree.

I play a mage secrets deck. It's a blast. I still think more secret options would be a plus. Doesn't need to be an ooze version, but something interesting. Maybe a weapon with low/no damage that clears a secret if it hits to the face.
Zoolocks HATE him

you reach a point where you start enjoying getting goldens and wish you hadn't DE-ed goldens in the pass. #regret
Yes, it did get changed, and it was stated (but not really explained) the patch notes:
Patch 5170 (April 9th said:
Now with that said, I don't know exactly how it works, but they do still stack. I have noticed that if I have 3, don't play for 2 days, and then complete 2 quests, I get 2 more after the next quest roll. I don't recall if I have ever tried not playing for 3 days and completing all 3 quests to see if it stacks 3, but I know it definitely does 2.
This happened to me in the past as well (getting a new phone,) and I couldn't find my recovery code. I had to go through Blizzard support to get them to pull off the auth, which required sending in a scan of my ID to match the name on my account. They don't screw around with this stuff lol.

I hate getting sniped, fire trap in the same turn.
I don't want goldens unless my whole deck is golden, so I have no regrets about DE'ing them. I'm an anal matching snob.
Well, yes, I guess so. I'm not at that point tho. I don't mass DE every golden I get, but I have gotten rid of some (Ancient Mage and Windfury Harpy come to mind, but I keep others that don't have an immediate obvious use, like Spiteful Smith) to craft a couple of legendaries.
I'm still missing plenty (Alex, BK, Sylv, Cenarius most notably) plus a ton of Epics, so I'm not thinking about a golden collection yet. =/
Well, I stand corrected then.
A few weekends ago I went out of town and I left with 3 quests stacked up. When I got back I did play but didn't complete all three immediately, until after a couple of days I think (I did re-roll 2 of them during those days). When I completed them all, I didn't get a stack of new ones, just the 1 next day, so that is why I was under the impression it was over.
If they still give you ones I guess I should do it like you did, because I don't think I've ever got more than 1 a day since.
