Wait all wings unlock today?
no I meant second boss, not wing.
I don't use trackers usually and I can keep track of my cards generally but with this one, you don't wanna risk it, some big oops can happen.
yeah but this one shouldn't be hard to script, it's probably going to be fixed later. It's obviously not quite what was planned.

If you want to beat face hunter, it is already trivial to do so without Reno.
I don't think it actually adds much outside of cw mirrors.
There isn't anything for shaman in this wing, there are in next wing.
Maybe with Reno people can try freeze shaman again, double healing wave + reno should be about as good as ice block maybe... nope.
It's pretty obvious for anyone mature and knowledgeable about how reality works is that ADWCTA is an idiot and doesn't realize how easily replaceable he is in HearthArena's arrangement and how it should have gotten a contract before putting in a lot of work. He burned his bridge by making that reddit post and he's basically a goner, HearthArena doesn't need him at all.
Rumbling elemental is a reward for escaping the tomb or w/e.
Its the 4 mana deal 2 damage when you cast a minion with battlecry
Oh yeah, totally. I just didn't think that /r/hearthstone would turn on him to this extent. "Mature and knowledgeable" are not two words often associated with that community.
oops I see it now, there is a one drop in next week, without that it's not really helpful to try decks yet. Brann is next week too to make a battlecry deck.

Very much in agreement. I still remember the magicamy shit storm.
He shot himself in the foot with his post. Trying to use social media to just burn down another person is pretty damn pathetic. It isn't even like he is going to gain anything from that. I think this is just another example of poor use of social media. He should have just said they couldn't come to an agreement and that he would be leaving the site's employment. Instead he chose to try to make the site fail because he wasn't being paid enough, simultaneously calling the other person's use of his paid work as exploitation and painting him as greedy.
All heartharena has to do is hire more consultants. And apparently they have a lot of ability to promote streamers cause who knew who the fuck this dude was before heartharena anyway. They say he had 50-100 streamers and boosted to thousands after heartharena took off. Seems like he is very replaceable. If he doesn't understand that, that is probably why he went this route.

reddit will always support the programmer/engineer/STEM student
r/hearthstone will always be hostile to people with actual knowledge about the game
seems like a pretty predictable outcome
yea i'll probably hold off on it for now

Im just glad Merps stayed out of the drama and just let ADWCTA make a fool of himself.
Some of the quotes on Forsens stream have been absolutely brutal. Forsen cannot be triggered though.
This shit is actually hilarious unlike Heartharena stuff
Aggro Druid is disgusting. Easiest wins since yndertaker huntard
He's actually intelligent unlike Reynad.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
Didn't have my gold saved up, and I'm not gonna spend the cash right now.
I'll just wait and grind it out. I got 510 gold now so I should be able to cop the first wing this weekend.

Use freeze Mage with all Freeze spells plus Ice Blocks, Doomsayers and Echo Molten Giants. Stall the game out.
At the halfway point the entire board gets cleared which is very helpful.
I used a freeze mage variant I came up with and got blown away. I tried it again just now with one or two card changes and owned it. #RNG

Getting to the last turn with a taunt druid deck...but having removal in hand or enough taunts on the board for the last turn is a bitch.
Fatigue Warrior works also fine, 2x Brawl 2x BGH 2x Bouncing blades and all the removal, couple it with a lot of recursive taunters like annoy-o-tron and belcher and heals easy game.

Mulch does give him a card, I took druid for poison seeds naturalize and the healing...keep stalling out on the last turn though. I'll give in and try a freeze build.
Edit: First go with freeze.
I don't want to speak out of turn or say too much, given my relationship with them, but given the genesis of the project was from them, the programmer has always been the most fungible aspect of HearthArena.
Hearthstone |OT8| Not as many Doctors as Doctor Who, but we're working on it.
What happened?
You sure?
I'm going to believe the guy who didn't attempt to start a witch hunt AND attempt to get people to pressure Cloud9 to distance themselves from HearthArena.
He had a contract... for 20% of the profits. The owner/programmer was willing to up it to 25% (30% if incentives were met, whatever that means).
Reynad got laid with Forsen Ex on his home while Mitch Jones was streaming there and everybody could hear it. The sad part was that She tried to cover it but was way too obvious.
Forsen is not mad at her but probably mad with Reynad, he seems the kind of guy of 'Bros before Hoes"...

Reynad closed the deal? He was thirsty as hell for her on his drunk stream
yeah the VoD is on youtube if you are curious, basically is Mitch and other guy laughing their asses off while the bed makes noises in Reynad's impressive 2 minutes exhibition.

VoD on Reynad's twitch?

From what I understand (maybe I am wrong), the programmer owns the business. There is a pecking order from there.
From what I've understood of this over the past couple years. I don't mean to come off as coy to play games; I thought about writing more in my earlier post or this one, but out of respect for friends, it's just not my place to do so.
EDIT: apologies for the derail-ishness of this.

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?
