I've been having some ridiculous success against Hunters and Mages in the lower ranks with this Divine Priest. Thinking about changes to make though, since I sometimes feel like I'm missing an Injured Blademaster or something. It's kind of sad that there are so few legendaries that synergises well with healing.
Lightwarden is so freaking good as Priest, the fact that it's never a dead card even late game because of 1 mana + a random heal gives 3/2 is so brilliant. People seem to really underestimate it.

Two cards have a leathal effect, they'll kill anything they attack. The Patient Assassin and the King Cobra.
I'm just quoting this to say that the guide does work and it doesn't take long at all so yea these people need to get on it and stop making excuses.... and of course thanks for posting the guide in the first place
Started playing Hearthstone Saturday and I'm addicted already. The iPad app is great so I'm glad I can use it even though it's not released in the U.S. yet.

I'll stop spamming this thread. But I played it like 3 times on PC. This game is so made for the tablet. Having a blast. But I am terrible
People just always seem to have better cards. My shit gets destroyed within seconds. I rarely get to ever attack with a good card.
edit: thanks everyone for their help btw

Fixed that. Divine shield prevents the effect.

That must be somewhat new then. They used to kill them.
Edit: Or I just hallucinated it or something.

I just had a thought, what if stealthed minions couldn't be examined by an opponent. It would be like the minion version of secrets... lol. That would suck I think, but be kinda cool.
Been that way since the beginning. Divine shield prevents damage therefore on hit effects (like water elemental as well) don't activate. Even frothing berserker doesn't get buffed when a DS is popped.

Guess I missed a part where the shield was gone then.
And as for the stealth idea, I feel like it would almost be kind of pointless. I don't think any stealth minions share a mana cost.
Edit: Wrong again, I guess the Worgen and the Assassin share a cost of one, right?

I'd just be happy with stealthed minions not be able to be targeted by hunters. I can accept that AOE will hit them, but when a hunter can single target and kill a stealthed minion, I think that's bs...

which legendaries are worth dusting?
like i see no use for cenarius... its only useful if you are already kicking ass no?
can illidan be useful anywhere?
maybe warlock?

It really depends I'd say. Seems the only hands down great legendaries are Rag and Leeroy, and maybe Cairne...
I crafted Illidan and ended up dusting him...Personally, I'll dust anything but Leeroy because I want to see what works and what doesn't...I had Rag, but never used him, so I dusted him for VanCleef...Not that I would do that again, but I wanted to try out VC..Ultimately VC is kind of a crappier version of a Questing Adventurer...
OJdaKiller
Member
Personally I'd do it for Leeroy as Leeroy is that good, and I'll dust about anything for what I want...Cairne seems like just a bigger version of a Harvest Golem which is nice, but not a game changer like Leeroy...
Most will tell you not to dust Cairne...
Yeah, that's my issue. I feel like Cairne is right on the cusp of being worth keeping but I'm also so close to getting Leeroy. Guess patience would probably be the best option
OJdaKiller
Member
It would be. I'd say keep him as 400 more dust will come soon enough...See what else you can get rid of to get that extra 400...You gotta have some epics you don't use...Or a class you just hate...Wipe it clean of any value..lol

huh, didn't realize i got leeroy already form a pack a while back lol. should try to use him then!
warlock zooing failed for me big time due to bad timing where i lost 2 whole parties due to that rogue spell that attacks everyone with their weapon.

There are countless games that Cairne has helped me win, just because he's such strong board presence. Yeti is already one of the best neutral minions, and Cairne is just that much harder to remove.. especially in the current meta which has very few Mages or Shamans.
For that matter, just tonight, he helped me win a game as a Druid against a Shaman who got me down to fatigue, then played Deathwing when I had Cairne on the board. Baine spawned, I dropped Rag as my last card and used hero power - exactly the 13 damage I needed.
This is my Druid deck, if you're curious. http://www.hearthpwn.com/deckbuilde...:1;532:2;542:2;548:2;587:2;620:2;633:2;667:2;

hmmm is there no replays in this? Definitely feels like i could have won a few matches if i played smarter.
so what are the best deckbuilder/resources? the ingame search is mad shitty... can you filter stuff in anyway?

Got my first 12 win Arena tonight. Just a few weeks of watching Trump play and the value washes all over you.
That would be a cool thing to give to rogues when the next set of cards come in. A set of 3-4 of them that all share a mana cost and have that ability. It does eat a lot of card slots though, depending on how big the first "expansion" will be.
Also it might kind of break the game by having a minion your opponent doesn't know the HP of. I guess if he wants to AoE he has to take a guess?

If only PAX East was last week... still looking to be the best point for release, next monday/week, after PAX ends.

I'm stuck at rank 2 as miracle rogue. Too many hunters to progress
Here's my deck right now:

So I cleaned my way through practice, mostly with an increasingly rad-ass hunter deck, and unlocked Arena. Lost three in a row but got a pack and a little gold out the deal. Seems worth it.
Then I finally won a PVP match, ranked, with aforementioned Hunter deck. I'm obviously still feeling my way through the game, and definitely want to give other Classes a try. I feel like my decks are a little bloated, but I also feel like I'm actually getting a sense of what works best and what can be discarded from a deck.
I wonder how many cards there are.

A pack costs 100 gold, so Arena is worth it if you value 100 + fun/experience + what rewards you get aside from the pack > 150.
I do this even if I go 0-3 and only get the pack + some dust.
I wound up setting up OBS to record my matches, so if I need to review I can do that.

if only shadowplay (5min back) mode worked for this :S
With how indepth mp tracking and what not in sc2, i kinda wish there was more indepth logging/tracking/analysis options in game here.
For some reason I am hoping it's Friday, since their "event" at PAX is Thursday (I think).
So I finally got a useful legendary in a pack, Golden Van Cleef which I DE'd into Leeroy. I was saving dust to craft him but need to figure out what to do with the dust now. I'm looking for the best universal Legendary. I have Rag already and was thinking of either Blood Mage, Cairn or Ysera. I seem to play Rogue a lot and Blood mage seems to be the most universal in benefit, kind of leaning towards him.
I have said it before and I will say it again, aggro / murloc / rush deck players tend to fold so fast if they don't get a prefect start and roll over you while spamming emotes.

I kept getting awesome starting cards on my mage deck last night, like:
mana wyrm - sorcerer's apprentice - bloodmage thalmos - frostbolt - ice lance

What does DE mean?
The whole crafting aspect of this game seems like a whole other level than what I'm comprehending. It's already a lot to just maximize nine classes, much less build cards out ones you no longer need.
Does the game give you a lot of extra cards or once your collection maxes out at two you stop seeing them in packs? How does all that work exactly?

Disenchant - turns the card into 'dust' that you can use as a currency to craft new cards. Golden crafting costs way more btw.
Once you already have 2 of a card, if you get that card in a pack, it can be automatically disenchanted if you want.

nah you still seem them in packs. there is a button at the bottom right in crafting that auto dust all cards you have over 2x of.
