Hearthstone |OT| Why tap cards when you can roll need [Naxx final wing out now]

The only real context I can think of would be that Innervate is a bad standalone card to start a draw engine.
But, y'know, so is Prep as the only spell in your hand. In many ways, Innervate is a worse Prep for Miracle draw setups. Which is fair, though largely in part due to the worse spell lineup for Druid. But Innervate is about getting card advantage through accelerating a threat into play turns ahead of the curve so it forces a bad response or gets value through attacks which gives the Malygod Druid setup a better creature game. It's why that deck existed
Any aggro deck that dumps its hand will destroy them. I don't think you even need a good zoo deck. Just play warlock/paladin and fill your deck with 1-3 mana creatures. Whatever cards you own that are cheap just put them in the deck and slap them on the board.

yeah I buzzsawed through with zoo. it would have taken less than 10 minutes if not for all the lag.
well i'm trying to zoo it now but I mainly play priest, mage and druid.

Yup, I think he never played the deck. ¯\_(ツ
_/¯Everyone should try a Druid Malygos deck. Its just so much fun.
Aggro Mage is fine too.
well I finally did it with one health to spare, that reign of fire is BS.

Rain of Fire seems like it hits my 1 HP minions every single time. I know it's just luck of the draw, but it feels amazingly accurate.

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?
I'm pretty sure it's not random. The AI is an AI and it knows what to do.
The trick is to use it to your advantage with chargers and/or battlecries, many GAFfers here used healers and taunt givers while I beat her with Amaz's Hunter deck. Survive until she's left with no hand+board and you can tick her down with anything as she lacks any kind of card draw.
Fixed.
yeah that was BS too. still beat the last one on my first time though with control priest...
Handlock has already been meganerfed with druids having a huge card against them now (Poison seeds) and the websomething being absurd against drakes, Arguses and Defenders.
Zoo is a good deck but it's extremely dependant on the meta. Control paladin for example kill it 7/10.
I'm gonna do a disruption deck, 2 mana wraith 2 webspinners, 1 loatheb, you can't play anything

I tried the weblords earlier, then I found out it actually works on both you and your opponent(it says so I just somehow assumed it was only for the opponent). Wasn't happy that I blocked myself from playing for a turn by playing a crappy 1/4. In the end it turned out alright since the guy ended up trading 2cards and an entire turn to remove it but that was a bit of a surprise.
And yeah don't like the whole 1week per wing stuff in terms of card release. Makes sense and all that you can't get the cards without the wing released but it's very uneven what you get every week.

I am lonely
Go out :b
I like Maexxna. Replaced my Cairne with her in my control warrior.

I uninstalled it and it still doesn't work
Argh! You speak as if Hearthstone is all I do!
Today, I've worked, socialized, done errands and now I just want to chill, play some video games and talk to nerds on Mumble!

It'd actually be kinda fun if they had the resources to just do a PVE wing every week of the year with even just 4 cards per wing/week. At least that'd mean we'd be getting ~200 new cards a year anyway (in the case of a real expansion missing a year). And they'd have a long term financial boost, as most players probably couldn't keep up the 700g per week indefinitely.
As it stands on the iOS Top Grossing charts (in the US), Hearthstone has gone from 29th place the day before Naxx to 11th place now, and that's just from releasing the free wing, when the paid wings come out, the increase should be much larger.
I kinda like how it makes everyone try out the new cards temporarily, even if most of them don't last in the long term.

Yay! Thank you
Edit: can you quote me GAF 1 as well? I might have the wrong one for some reason...

It missed my 1 health minion 3 times in a row (though it could only fire like ~2 missiles per turn)
Yeah I just played someone who coined a Haunter Creeper, played an Egg and then Void Terrorized them. Not bad.

Tried to make a Shaman deck around Nerubian Egg and Ancestral Spirit. Matched up against a zoolock and it went something like this:
Turn 1: Argent Squire
Turn 2: Nerubian Egg
Turn 3: Harvest Golem
Turn 4: Flametongue Totem + Ancestral Spirit
It pretty much snowballed after that with the lock having to blow everything to try (and fail) to take control. I got lucky with a perfect starting hand so definitely not viable, but it was still awesome to see.

It's really fun testing out these new cards. I'd really drifted away from the game hard, but this has reminded me of the joys within.
You get a card back for clearing all wings on heroic. Some Blizz dev apparently tweeted about one for each wing but, at the moment at least, that's not the case.

Yeah it'd be fun but let's be realistic, the next set of cards is probably not even this year, or christmas at best. They're releasing over 5weeks so people don't say they've beaten the whole thing they took like a year to make in a single day and I guess so it gives them an additional month in the "how long since last content patch" count.
I like what they did and it's pretty fun and I hope I'm wrong but if anything wow taught me, it's that Blizzard is really really slow at releasing new stuff. Think this last expansion they're going over a year between the last raid and the next expansion or something, that's like...
ASH! Get on Mumble
In a little bit.
Nice to see another Fightin' 13th back in action!
