Ice Block or Ice Barrier? Ice Barrier, the +8 armor when attacked secret, doesn't trigger when spells are cast. Ice Block should trigger if you were going to take lethal damage.

Ice barrier only triggers by minion and hero attacks, not spells. Working as intended.

Down the track I'd love to see quests ranked only and have casual show a queue of players and the hero they have chosen.
That way you could try things out, avoid whatever deck 99% of people are playing (at least in theory) and not worry about people like me playing face hunter just to get 5 wins in 5 minutes.
Nor does the hunter hero power, which is often a bit of a problem.

Can someone add me so I can get the spectate game quest done? My bnet id is sulfurs#1892. Thanks
But my character is being attacked by fireballs.
No, you're being targeted by spell that deals 6 damage.
Mage

The official tier list is:

You get three wins for every Floating Watcher you draft.
Finally, too bad he's unplayable now.
they need gold cards in arena damnit
I tried out that overlay and it's fantastic. Never have to wonder if they've still got the coin. Can tell at a glance if they've been sitting on a particular card since the beginning of the game. The deck list sitting right next to the board is super-convenient for Arena where you don't actually know your deck that well. Plus automatic stat tracking.
Basically if playing anything but Face Hunter was too much work, this is for you.

Which overlay?

Running Grim Patron in arena is unreal, especially if you're running a Madder Bomber too. The board just assembles itself.
The one from here: https://github.com/Epix37/Hearthstone-Deck-Tracker/releases
Seems to be the only game in town, other than some mostly-cosmetic ones for streams.
Lol
5-0 first arena game as mage.
Solid control
2x flamecannon
2x polymorph
1x cone of cold
1x flamestrike
2x water elemental
If you own the gold version, it should allow you to use it in arena.

Fast Druid might make a comeback.
It's been back for a while now, but it's running piloted shredder instead.
Every card needs to have maximum synergy with other cards in the deck. BT's only asset are its stats. If that's enough for your deck then fine, they are not for any of mine at the moment and muster eclipses BT in many ways.
Why wouldn't these cards have room in a dragon deck? Because it doesn't say "dragon" in their rulings?
Value is relative. Decks aren't filled with maximum stat cards for a reason. Your deck needs to have a varied arsenal of tempo, value and counters to the current meta. Maybe the decks you play against are weak to BT, I haven't noticed anything like that, on the contrary the card seems pretty dead against face hunter for example, I would always play muster or follow-da-rules over it.
Yes but our context here isn't card vacuum, it's a paladin deck with dragons in it.
Warlock was already high tier post-GvG and now has Imp GG Boss, also there's no way Priest is on par with Paladin tbqh
Even then minion/removal quality was obscenely high, easy 8+ deck
It's not the class's fault that you drafted a greedy curve

Even with Imp Boss, Zoo seems weak for some reason. Maybe it's just that modern facehunters and mech mage eclipse it while control decks have better learned to survive rush strategies in this aggro meta.
Oh I was talking about arena. Not sure where I'd place Zoo in constructed right now, it has made a comeback recently but it's definitely not the pinnacle of consistency that it used to be.
Mage isn't that superior to Paladin anymore.
And please leave Warrior out of any arena ranking, it doesn't belong on the scale.
Mage = Paladin >> Priest >> Druid = Hunter > Shaman = Rogue = Warlock.
Fireguard Destroyer might boost Shaman an insane amount.
Ah arena. Well Warlock is so inconsistent in arena that I never pick it just like I never pick warrior. Too many dead picks.
Warlock is actually my favorite and statistically strongest class in arena right now.
It's also the second strongest class against me statistically(one of two classes I have a <50% win rate against). Warlock is fine - the class just doesn't draft/play at all like most other classes.

I hate playing against rogues so much feels like they always beat me
my stats back me up on this too,pretty small sample size against them but my record against all other classes ranges from 56-71% but i'm 6-12 against rogues(33%)
I should probably try and learn to play against them better or something

Are you talking about arena or constructed? I only win ~46% of the time against them in arena, making it my worst matchup. I'm also pretty terrible at playing rogue in arena - it's my second worst class(only ahead of shaman).
It was my second or third best arena class during classic, and I play a fair bit of rogue in constructed, so I'm not sure where I'm going wrong.
arena
feels like they just kinda chip away at my health a bit at a time and usually end up getting me to 0 before I can win
ugh was just facing a priest and they curved out pretty badly so I had like 3 things on the board and they had nothing
then on turn 4 they play a mindgames and it pulls Jaraxxus,just couldn't come back from that especially when they used velens on it the next turn
only thing in my entire deck that was more than a 5 drop
was the only time that Jaraxxus got played the entire arena run too and it wasn't even by me

Why she playing ranked?
Well she might be playing against some arena players that are trying constructed a bit. They cant lose stars so no way they are hunting golden portraits. Your gf was unlucky.
Need some advice. I'm mostly a F2P player, (I bought 8 packs once) I saved up all my gold for Naxxramas, played some Arena/Bought classic packs after that with gold, and now saved up all my gold for Blackrock Mountain. (Will run out for the last week but ill just farm that up and play it a bit later)
I'm doing the Naxxramas heroics now, stuck at Thaddius atm. The main problem is I'm missing crucial cards. I only have the adventure legendaries + Grommash Hellscream and Edwin VanCleef. The solution for most heroic bosses are freeze mage, but I only have 1 ice block and no ice barriers, or hell even the most important card for that Alex.
So my questions is, what should I do with my dust, I have 380 dust atm. Should I save it all up and craft neutral legendary cards and wait for that? Or just craft some minor cheap cards for now. I feel like I should wait but I'm not sure.
Right now I see no way for me to beat heroic Thaddius, but I really enjoy doing these.
