I like the 2nd card. Counter to Handlock.Fake cards:
Bananas are great and more cards should generate them.

I am willing to bet dollars to donuts they have something big planned in the future. The game will be fine for another year, but once it hits that 1,000 card mark it's going to get a little crazy to keep up for anyone.
I would imagine they will set it up similar to MtG. That would have a mode that includes all of the cards. Then they would have a mode that includes the latest 4 to 6 expansions. Maybe a classic mode that is only Basic & Classic cards also.
Allowing those modes and tying it all into deck building would be pretty difficult though. Right now they are two very separate functions.
I've gotten cards of various use before, but plopping down a Tirion vs a paladin on turn 5 is just so amazing. He conceded the turn after :lol

My friend just drafted 2 Dr. Booms in Arena. Gross.
Fruit Treant is INSANE. Best 4 drop.

Is there a good source for arena drafting and strategy? I have play only a few and with not very good results at all.
Portal has a decent chance of spewing out a Legendary mostly because cards aren't weighted in their drop rate unlike card packs.

Value only goes so far. Part of it is synergy as well.

Here's my friend's Arena deck. Please note, if you have 2x of a Legendary it doesn't show the number in your deck list, but rest assured, he has two Dr. Booms.
Sick deck if you ask me. Tons of high-value cards, the worst probably being Druid of the Flame or Lost Tallstrider.
The turn 3 Dr. Boom dream is real.

So I ended up only 8/3 with this deck. Only drew KT once and didn't get to play him so he didn't even matter. Boom did work though.
I lost to bad draw, bad draw where I almost recovered but then Rag on turn 8 to put me at 1hp, and a Priest with insane Mech start. I won via topdecks in 4 of the games, 3 Fireballs and 1 Flamestrike. Good deck but I felt like it would win more.
Pack from the run was complete trash.

I think you can slot him into most Rogue decks honestly. It's a very adaptive card so you don't really have to build a deck around him.
Druid of the Flame is a fairly decent card in Arena, allows for decent value trades. But yeah, his deck doesn't really have any outright bad cards, pretty sick.
Thats because he doesnt take any damage. Just like commanding shout reads, "Your minions cant be reduced below 1 health this turn".
Right, but I figured it'd work like slamming a divine shield.
Pretty good deck if it can survive the early game. I think that deck is going to fall to faster decks in arena. It lacks good board clear as well, but the taunts make up for that. It does have some removal options which are less than optimal since they are druid removal. If he can curve out, I bet he destroys his opponents. When he loses he is going to have 5+ cards in hand and none of them will help save him.
Can't wait to hear how far he goes, I hope it's a 12-0
Fuck Hoggers man. Everybody is always joking that animal companion only summons them, but i honestly got the feeling that this is more reality than a joke.
But Slam reads "if it survives", which is entirely different. On Damage effects wont work on divine shield either.

It's logical when you directly compare the texts as Slam's card draw effect isn't tied to the damage being dealt but yeah, I found out the hard way as well.

I played against a Demon Zoo that used Imp-losion on a shielded Annoy-o-tron for 0 damage and 0 Imps. I laughed my ass off at that, but proceeded to get steam rolled anyway.
Don't you need golden Jaraxxus for that?

I have the same problem too, it gives me an error and to wait a few minutes and try again but no luck. Hopefully we will get free packs from this disruption, can't let Yoshichan get all the free packs.

when will it be my turn to get dr. balanced in arena
When will it be my turn to get ANY legendary in arena.
It was mentioned a few days ago, people say it'll take minimum 8 hours of playing and that's if you're playing with a friend for every game for the 50% XP bonus. I'm just gonna casually try to sneak in games in for that, it's OK but matchmaking takes so damn long.

That feel when you get Dr. Balanced in the unstable portal lottery.
So good.
So good.

You reached 500 wins with Gul'dan, not Jaraxxus. You need the gold Jaraxxus card to actually get gold Jaraxxus
It does? I haven't played for a while but quick match never took long to get going.
Ok, cool. That isn't too bad, I guess. So if I play a few hours a week, I should be able to unlock it within a month.
This is like the slowest card in the world.... but the VALUE
How bout:
Deathrattle: Resummon Gamon at the end of your opponents turn
so you get to attack with it right away?
Intentional. I think that might be too strong for 4 mana. Make the mana cost too high and it feels too slow to play, even if you were able to keep playing it right away.

Should this cost more mana or less?
Unplayable, just way too situational. It's a counter to a counter card that has to live through a turn to get the desired effect while only having two health? Nobody would play it even at zero mana

It's a feature now. Adds RNG to cards that didn't have it before.
It should be 10 mana deal 100 damage to a random character.
