Got matched against against Forsen on the ladder earlier tonight

Hey Lodjik bud, we need to have a game sometime. I just bough an iPad and started playing this again!

Can I ask what is that number next to your name exactly?

And who is Forsen?

Yep, you need to play through the tutorial, no option to skip it that I know of.

Thanks for confirming. Tutorials normally give me ball ache as I just like to learn by failing, but I guess it's better to follow some kind of guidance.

You win? Probably not since you look like a roleplayer

One of the best players in EU and a popular streamer. He's online now.

The number is region (EU) rank. Yeah sure we can have some games.

He pulled out Grom + CT for 12 when I was at 30+14 armour gambling I didn't have execute or removal. I didn't and his gamble paid off.

First time on twitch? everyone plays weird music.

Cavallino · 27 Oct 2014 at 20:41

Yep first time, not sure what the appeal is in watching someone else play when I rarely get a chance to play myself lol.

Tune · 27 Oct 2014 at 20:50

You watch it for the person really, not the game. Pretty entertaining, and I mostly watch it on another monitor while I play/do something.

Good way to learn about games too.

Cavallino · 27 Oct 2014 at 20:59

I have a multi monitor setup, but I cannot concentrate on watching a video and a game at same time heh

Is it only Hearthstone you watch?
(Ive heard of twitch but never really got into it).

Tune · 27 Oct 2014 at 21:15

No, I rarely watch hearthstone, if I do I only watch kripp. I mostly watch Dota2, Starcraft 2 or CSGO.

I mostly watch the tournament games though, they are the most fun.

Blizzard has done something somewhere because the numbers have reduced drastically over the past few weeks compared to a month ago.

Confirmed!

We've recently banned several thousand Hearthstone accounts that were associated with the use of third-party programs that automate gameplay, otherwise known as “bots” or “botting.”

From this point on, accounts found to be cheating will be permanently closed without warning.

Very firm action from Blizzard, very happy with that.

By the way congratulations on achieving legendary Lodjik, I remember playing a few games against you a while back. I took a break for a while (planning a wedding is very time consumuing!), but have reinstalled and Im back. Just playing through Naxx at the moment.

If you dont mind me asking, when did you get Legendary and what deck(s) did you use to get there?

Legend

Grats on legend

I'm just picking HS back up after a 3 month hiatus. Still playing my pre-naxx decks and have 3 wings to unlock to get the all the cards.

Do both at the same time. The Forsen stream is hilariously troll worthy, from the music, his reactions, to the chat - its brilliant entertainment.

Saturday morning. The decks I used were

Rank 17 - 3: Control Warrior
Rank 3 - Legend: Zoo

rubberduck · 28 Oct 2014 at 10:07

Any reason to use a much slower deck for Rank 17 to 3 over zoo? Or did you just fancy playing Warrior?

Cavallino · 28 Oct 2014 at 10:51

Lodjik would you mind if I used your Zoo deck idea? I'm just so crap at this game.

Im sure he and the other 100,000 players who regularly use the Zoo themed deck won't mind

.

If you are looking for pointers on the game, I find Trump's youtube streams to be very helpful, particularly the free to play ones from early in the year.

Not just because of how well he plays, but more he is good at explaining why certain plays are bad, or sub-optimal. Watching his stream improved my game loads.

Ill second the Trump suggestion, I personally find his personality a bit offish but I did learn a lot from him....Although I am still bad.
