Malygos + Pyroblast = Win :p

As mentioned +5 spell is amazing with the right classes. Not all use spells that much. But something like a mage which has a load of spells would highly benefit from it.
 
Malygos is a mostly "fun" card because it can only be played in the late game and by then, the cards that would make the most of +5 dmg (such as Arcane Missles, Blast, Frost Bolt) have already been used. Its cost also makes combo's almost impossible to pull off and those are the key to winning.

That's exactly my problem with the card Zethor - if i put it down and the board is even I'm left with hoping I also have arcane blast / missiles as well on the turn and trading. If I'm ahead it doesn't overly speed up the game - I could fireball on the turn and do similar damage over 2 turns (assuming i follow with a second fb/pyro). If i put it down while I'm behind then i'm betting I draw a spell and going for face which seems really risky.

Alternatively this could be turned into a nice epic or a decent amount of a van cleef (I love me some rogue). Might just hold out for a bit - I'm up to 2300 dust so either a jarax, rag or thalnos is in my sights currently.
 
I don't think I've seen an 8+ card outside the arena, and most players will keep an insta-counter card just in case. If you have a lot in your deck you might have nothing to play early game.
 
Guys how do you sort your Blizzard account out when you're from the U.K?

Just had an e-mail saying i've got access to Hearthstone. Tried to log in and my password is wrong. Went into password recovery and did the secret question thing and that's wrong too. Would I have to ring them up to get access to it? The weird thing is my secret question is what was my 1st car and I know for a fact i'm getting it right but I have no idea why it's not working.
 
Decided to spend £35 on 40 packs, thought why not - consider it a good investment. Missing a few good cards I need but I can wait. Playing Hunter atm from mage, Think I have a good deck and easily managed to go from rank 25-20 with it yesterday, so will see what happens from here. I love the mechanics around Unleash the Hounds.

Decided just to save gold now and use it for Arena....Though after my 0-3 crushing last time I played , iv decided to get to at least rank 15 before I play any more Arenas.

I started playing some Hunter at the weekend experimenting with the new UTH buff. This new Hunter Rush is pretty obnoxious. Got to Rank 7 with it pretty quickly but around that level the meta is mostly Druid and Paladin control and these classes counter this aggro style fairly well so I'll be going back to my main Paladin at this level. Handlock can usually be beaten.

The problem I see with this deck is that it will be the go to ladder rush deck at the start of every season in place of Aggrolock as it's mostly more effective and that's going to be frustrating for new players to deal with.

had a game vs mage yesterday, beyond hilarious. For 5 turns he was top decking to try and get pyroblast to kill me whilst he played a few secrets to stop me killing him....never came up, I won.

mage is still bs though.
 
Too many hunters, can't seem to beat them, ever..

Overwhelmed by beasts with wolf buffs, I manage to get lucky enough to draw a board clearer spell then they just drop buzzard + unleash hounds, proceeding to wreck what I have and also draw 3-5 cards for free.

Balloney.
 
Well with hunters you have to keep a lot of cards in your deck and only play what you absolutely have to, getting a decent amount of charge and low health board clears makes it pretty easy to deal with them.
 
Hunters are the weakest right now, along with warriors, because they lack early game strengths and have a inflexible (and thus often useless) speciality. Other than unleash the hounds, which is mid/late game anyway, they don't have a lot of deadly combos. Just control the board with 2 cards by buffing them and by quickly removing anything they throw in.
 
rush decks are suddenly popular ,had a whole hour of them yesterday lost all but one match.
kept thinking the next one would be better so I didn't change my deck, but it never was.
 
Hunter rush relies on dealing 30+ damage over 28 mana (turns 1-7) which can be done by using disposable charge minions and direct damage. While certainly not the weakest class it can be countered if you run 2x Sunfury and 2x Argus and mulligan hard for them. Preventing as much damage as possible in the first 6 turns is key. Put out only one or 2 big minions at a time and use healing if possible. If you have no taunt and 3 minions on the board at turn 7 then you will eat a 16 damage combo to the face. Prevent as much damage as possible in the first 6 turns and the game should be in your favour.

I had my Hunter at Rank 5 yesterday and the above is what beats it.
