Fel Reaver has got to be my favourite card of the new expansion. Almost every Arena game I've seen it played in (that wasn't a one-sided stomp) has been tense and tactically complex - do you just neutralise it quickly, or try to burn their deck heavily? Should it have been held longer, or played earlier? Lot of great finishes where one player is close to faitgue but has the board and is trying to close out while the other guy tries to hang on.

World is full of Grinchy little bitches.
Any deck with UT is still viable.

Probably felt pretty sheepish after opening it X D
sorry
Too bad it wasn't 4 Angry Chickens and a GE, that would have been amazing.
I got it to work now, thanks for the help.

Decided to take a month off from the game. Feeling pretty burned out on HS right now.
I don't think GvG had near the impact Naxx did despite having so many more cards. So far out of my decks I've added a Shield Maiden and Dr. Boom to Control Warrior and Dr. Boom to Ramp Druid. My Hunter and Warlock decks have stayed unchanged. Just having a hard time fitting GvG cards in.

it still remains to be seen just how many cards will work their way into decks. right now people are experimenting with things they are familiar with so something innovative still may be over the horizon. i think it's actually very healthy for the game that the GvG cards didn't just immediately take over.
Well... I put down a little bit of money and what gold I had toward GvG packs to ease my way back into this. I got lucky and got 3 legendaries from the packs O_O
Mogor the Ogre
Troggzor the Earthinator
Dr Boom
I'll save up some gold and finally get the last wing of Naxx next I guess.
Anyway I wanna put the new spectator feature to use so if anyone doesn't mind adding another to their list my Bnet is Tstrider#1716

Good pull. Dr. Boom is the Ragnoros of this expansion.
Completely overhauled Mage class.
Welcome to the club. He's the only card from GvG I've crafted so far.
I've only gotten to play him once. Opponent Ran Loatheb into him, then Swiped. Boom bots had an empty board so went they for face. Both did 1 damage =(
An Unremarkable Scenario, but he still 2 for 1'd and did 2 damage to face.
I really don't understand why they saw the need to nerf miracle. Especially with the way the meta is now, it's like every deck has become either stronger or classes that were lacking now have an aggro deck that works, yet one of the few decks that forced players to make decisions beyond the go for face or trade is nerfed and yet UT is still in every aggro deck.

Still unable to enroll in arena. Stuck at the rewards screen. This is pretty fucking frustrating.

been cleaning up mage with rogue. all the early game removal means they can't establish a board. and 4 health minions are such a perfect eviscerate target.
so many times i play a dr doom turn 7 to an empty board and they just concede.
you should get angry at customer support you'll probably some some free packs
Just had an arena match where turn 10 Druid plays cenarious. I drop mind control tech he steals cenarious. I flame strike board to clear. Next turn attack his minion with cenarious then youthful brewmaster the cenarious. Talk about epic arena fun playing other class legendaries.
Same here, it's the first card I've ever crafted. I've been hoarding dust to someday complete my card collection, and I figure Boom will be 1600 dust again after a nerf and I might as well enjoy it now. Even if it doesn't, I can't complain too much about a card that went into 7 of my 9 decks.

Rank 5 was all Handlocks so I had to go face hunter to get through. Now Rank 4 is all face hunters. What counters face hunter?

he's awful but also hilarious if your opponent doesn't have removal and is forced to run minions in. it's such chaos and a pretty okay zoo counter.

they nerfed auctioneer because of spare parts.
rogue is in a really great place now, though. still has the best early removal in the game. really having fun with the double sprint board control variant and I'm sure the deck will only improve.
Yeah. So looks like I'm running into a lot more potent decks at rank 20. I've stayed there last 6 matches. Up 2 stars, down 2 stars. I faced a full fledged Warlock zoo deck vs my basic level 5 warlock deck lol. And I still managed to almost come out on top.
Too many good cards. Guess I'll be stuck here for a bit just grinding gold.

If you're facing only good decks at rank 20 this late in the season, you're probably encountering people farming for their gold heroes. Try to push through to ~15 and you'll start encountering weaker decks.

My Hearthstone is broken 
Everytime I launch it, it says "You were reconnected to your last game. Resuming..." but does nothing and stays there infinitely, no matter how many times I quit and reopen Hearthstone.

You'll enjoy Naxx more if you try to figure it out yourself, there's not much content otherwise.
Yeah, I just want the cards. It's frustrating I can't play it anything like a normal match and have to basically ignore board control early on and just go for the face.
Kelthuzad is easily beaten with zoo-type decks, Zoo Warlock, Shaman with tokens and Bloodlust, even token Paladin or aggro Paladin.
If Blizzard care at all about new players' experience they need to do something about this.
You have to create a deck specifically for it. Thats the idea, if you can't be bothered just go on hearthpwn and there are plenty you can netdeck.
GvG pretty drastically overhauled the paladin IMO. The hero power is now actually a threat.
Also, I don't understand Recumbobulator (sp?). I mean... eh?
I got excited and crafted 2 hobgoblins. They're unexpected in an aggro druid deck though, which I had fun with on casual.
I actually dusted my only golden big game hunter for that, which I'm noticing I'll be needing more the higher rank I get.

I'm having a blast with rogue also. Sharpsword oil is so damn awesome.
Did a deckhand, prep, oil, oil combo for 16 damage to face, getting lethal with just a blade in hand at the start of the turn.
Cast it on a mountain or molten giant to heal them right back up. You can also use it on something you threw down for its battle cry, which usually upgrades it to something better (I.e antique healbot is a good one).
Don't understand what about recombobulator?
It has a ton of really neat uses when you think about it. The most generic one is making a trade that leaves your minion alive but with low health, then dropping him to effectively heal it. Very strong with Giants or general higher mana minions that are basically always going to turn into a big threat, or just the same minion again. Or you could combo it with something used mainly for the battlecry. Antique Healbot, then recombobulate it and you're very likely to get better than a 3/3 in the 5 mana slot.
Then there's nasty moves like using Shadow Madness and transforming the minion to get around the "end of turn" effect. I think the card is a lot of fun.

If you recumbobulate an enemy minion you cast shadow madness on, you get to keep the transformed unit! It also lets you heal injured giants since they're usually the only cards at their card cost
