The Official Hearthstone : Heroes of Warcraft Thread

Those of you that cry desperation for a key and will do anything for one why don't you just buy one? They have been available for under a tenner for a while now. Open Beta isn't coming this year so just buy one, shut up about it and enjoy this awesome game over the Xmas holidays.

Where can you buy them?
 
The game isn’t worth £5 let alone £10, if card games aren’t your thing it will keep you entertained for a few hours max. If they are then this wont be for you as its weak in comparison to other titles already out..

You are better off just waiting until its in open beta in the New Year.

Out of curiosity what other comparable titles are better? And don't say MTGO, the online client looks like it is from 1995, and the cards are very expensive. (Love the real life version of that game though).
 
Random! Was so close to buying one today aswell!

EDIT: Shows up in Gmail 'Promotions' tab which i usually ignore
 
Got mine as well, so far I've paid for some packs :S

But I'm enjoying it, just a bit RNG, Top decking and luck of the cards on any build you make for Play.

Sometimes when it goes good it goes GOOD :D:D:D


I had one guy equip a weapon to mash on my 12/4 buff minion which then left him with 4 health lol

He said sorry and conceded rofl
 
Good to know, I am with Gmail.

My patience wears thin....might have to fork out a tenner if open beta is not coming before Xmas!

If you think you'll like the game and can afford a tenner I would do it. The game is a lot of fun. Who cares if it's F2P in the new year. The game is better than any I've spent £25-40 on this year. At least for me.

Got my Closed Beta key today! Anything I need to know before I download it tomorrow?

Level every Hero to Lvl 10 and do all the training/initial gold quests it gives you. Play your free Arena. Go back beat AI on Expert (not as difficult as it sounds). These give you initial Gold prizes and packs to get you started. IIRC I ended up with 300-400 gold from this (but I did go 8-3 in my first Arena). Make sure you do daily quests for gold (they stack over days if you log in and start them). Gold accumulation is everything in this game.

Don't buy packs. Spend gold/money on Arena. The reward ratios are more favourable.

Save Arcane Dust until you know the game better. It is a rare and precious resource and crafting a card you think you want/need early on is usually a waste. Cards you can't go wrong with crafting are the strong Neutral Rares (Blue Stones) such as Defender of Argus, Argent Commander, Azure Drake, Dark Iron Dwarf, etc.

Any purchase (Arena entry or Pack) in Closed Beta grants you a gratis Golden "Gelbin Mekkatorque". One of the games Legendary cards.

I got my key middle of last week, So far I have got all classes to rank 10 and then started test creating some decks. Was really struggling but have now got myself a fairly nice Priest deck that so far I am something like 10-2 on :)

Will go back and beat all AI on Expert and purchase myself a Arena run with real cash moneyz to get the card. Still waiting on my Blizzcon cards :(
