it's easy they are just gimmick decks your playing against really.

just the 3rd one is hard on heroic because it removes 2 of your minions to your hand every turn for 0 mana and it starts with two 1/2 spiders with deathrattle summon 2x 1/1 spiders

Watching Trump beat that encounter, with a freeze mage deck and farseer and witch doctor so he heals for 5, and then waits for Alex and starts nuking her down.

deck i used is probably the easiest, just get the enemy board full of one damage minions and then out heal the damage they do.

if your good you can get a 0/2 egg in the enemies board as well.

never use more than 2 minions a turn so enemy can't proc death rattles.

the hardest part is trying to keep your hand empty enough so you can keep recyling the heals and charge minions every turn so other than those use as cheap cards as possible so you can waste them quick

Folks, so concerning Nax, you complete the first wing, then do the heroic, then the do the two challenges and that's it for now right?

Where is the "P2P" aspect of Nax?

play2pay ? only the first nax wing is free and only for the first month or whatever it is

pay2play

So youre saying that the first wing is free and then the rest of the single player will be p2p? Whats the sub model?

The first wing is free... After that a new wing is released every week for 4 weeks which you have to pay for (around £4 each). You are essentially paying for the cards associated with each wing but the devs have said that in the future there will be some incentive to go back and beat the wings again in single player mode.

or you can grind gold and get the wings for free so no pay2play.

Only way you can get far by going f2p is if u consistently average 6 wins or more in arena. It's such a long grind if u rely on just opening packs for 100 gold from the daily quests.

Well this is a lie. You can pay 700g per wing, which really isn't that much. I started saving like a month ago and already have a lot of gold. They announced naxx like 6 months in advance.

I'm so so bad at arena, always seem to go 0/3 atm!! :eek:

uniQ · 25 Jul 2014 at 18:18

I normally get bored and retire my deck after a couple of arena games. Last pack I got doing this had a Gold black knight though

You call it grind, I call it playing the game. I enjoy spending a couple of hours doing arena. I enjoy climbing the rankings in constructed.

If you enjoy hearthstone you'll find yourself swimming in gold as a byproduct of just playing. If you don't enjoy hearthstone why would you care about what things cost anyway?

Leeroy Jenkins · 26 Jul 2014 at 16:41

Getting seriously sick of ladder now, every game is either a zoo lock or some form of aggro deck of some kind. So frustrating to play against these decks as a handlock.

where are you guys building your decks that provide the image you are posting in here

Toothpick · 26 Jul 2014 at 20:20

What do you mean?

How does this compare to, say, Legends of Norrath? I loved that game

Used to play MTG years and years ago but was always crap at it

LoN I only played single player, but it was great fun.

I cant really say, i used to play yu-gi-oh as a kid and gave this game a shot and i have been hooked on it since then. Just give it a try but you wont get very far unless you put some money into the game unless you are prepared to grind your ass off to get cards.
