The Official Hearthstone : Heroes of Warcraft Thread

I just crafted a Nat Pagle since he goes in well with my Shammy deck. I think I have all them cards in that deck you listed except Doomsayers, Tinkmaster and Ysera. Looks like a pretty fun deck actually. I could craft the Doomsayers (if I don't already have 1 or 2) I'm sure I can figure replacements for Tink and Ysera.

Really do like playing my shammy deck though, next card I need is Bloodmage for it tbh. But if my starting hand sucks... the game is pretty much lost from the get go !
 
Nat Pagle was my last craft too. Solid card in most decks.

The doomsayers are not necessary and Tink can be swapped for a silence or hard removal. Ysera can be replaced with Alexstraza or Onyxia (worth a try). If you have the rest you should be able to do quite well.
 
I can't believe what they've done to Tink! Why skillfully balance a card when you can nerf it into oblivion with minimum effort :rolleyes:

At least we are finally getting the full launch. Beta looks like it's ending this week.
 
Ooo... that's pretty cool

I'm getting annoyed now, been grinding out dailies so I can buy a few packs and the last 3 packs I've bought have all had combinations of the same rubbish commons and the same awful rare - that murloc card that gives both players 3 cards (Coldlight seer or something?) :(
 
When you've got most of the cards every pack is like that. I'm just accumulating dust to craft the new cards that will be coming soon.

Here are the final changes before Official Launch
http://www.hearthpwn.com/news/375-beta-patch-4944-hearthsteed-achievements-card

Nat Pagle & Tinkmaster are the only cards to change. Tink is now useless, Pagle is still OK. Was expecting a nerf on both these cards as they are the only OP cards really left but was expecting Pagle to be nerfed hard not Tink.

This means I can DE my Tink for a Black Knight which is the only card I want that I haven't got. BK is going to be much more viable now Tink has gone.
 
I think I must be a "tad" late to this, only found out about the game yesterday, dl'ed the beta and did all the SP stuff, had just won my first ranked game tonight when the servers went downf or the patch, so I'm still stuck with my lowly mage! :)

I believe, from what I've read once you beat a class in ranked you then unlock it for yourself? At least with the game being free I should have plenty of time to get my head around it, looks simple on the surface, but I'm sure it goes a LOT deeper!

Hope the iPad version is out sometime soon, too, so I can be unsociable while being sociable!

It's been that long I can't recall. I think you just beat the AI. Getting each class to Lvl 10 will unlock all their 'Basic Sets'. This Gold guide for new players should help a bit.

Beta is now officially over!!

Just waiting for the EU servers to go back online after the patch. The gates are open!
 
Ooo I was just reading that apparently now the game is released they have tweaked the way the rankings work in constructed...

There will still be a reset every now and then (maybe monthly still) but instead of everybody dropping back to rank 25 the level you drop back to depends on the highest rank you reached in the previous season... So no more running into legendary rank players at the lowest ranks for the first week :)
 
I'm really not happy at the secret's change and the change to Tinkmaster Overspark has nerfed the card into the ground. At least I can disenchant the card and craft another Legendary card that's useful. The Nat change was expected as it was uber early on, even now its adjustment isn't very harsh, it just delays the free cards for a turn.
 
What did they do to Tinkmaster? I'll have to check when I get home as he's the only legendary I have!!! (But I'll DE him if he's been nerfed as I'm not that fond of him anyway)

He's complete trash now. Blizzard wanted to remove him from competitive completely and just have him as a 'fun' card like Gelbin, etc.
Look on the bright side you've now got 1600 dust to craft a ledge of your choice :)

is it possible to get a gold card again as a reward if you disenchant it?

If you are talking about the Reward cards you get for leveling up a character then they are Soulbound (Account Bound), part of the Basic Sets and cannot be DE'd. Everything else can be. It will tell you if you right click on a card in Crafting Mode.
 
Ho-daayum I see what you mean... They might as well have just got rid of him alltogether!!!

Still, 1600 dust ain't bad :) The question is what Legendary should I get? (I don't have any others!)

Leeroy for adding to rush decks?

Tirion is quite a beast and I do like a bit of Pally

Ysera?

Ragnaros?

Argh!!!
 
Hmm... I may go with Ysera...

Although I could see them nerfing her eventually - possibly just to make it similar like the Pagle nerf (i.e. you get your dream card on the start of your turn not the end... giving the other player a chance to react)
 
Well, that was a fun night learning the game, Mage seems a little too glass cannon for me right now, got utpo about lvl 8 mage, tried Shaman and really liking it, getting the right combo when new to the game & having someone hitting for 15 + windfury with no guarding made me smile!

But wow, its too similar to normal WoW, Warlocks are impossible to beat, finding them & Priests very hard to face so far!
 
all comes with experience mate, i dont find any class impossible to beat, but i find EVERY class can have that perfect deck or luck of draws that just totally wipes you off the board :) Your always gonna have classed in which their hero ability is great for pinging off lowbie minions, so think mage/druid/rogue. Shaman hero ability is also nice if you can combine it with a flametounge totem, dire wolf, shattered sun cleric etc.

I would say my least played hero by far is the warlock and thats only because i always find it counter intuitive to take damage to make progress, but its just a personal thing :)

Very frustrating, just work through getting the basic decks unlocked for every class then look at something like http://www.icy-veins.com/hearthstone with a nice guide for making starter decks from the basic cards. You will be suprised that you can do pretty well on the starter decks until you hit the higher ranks and come up against more specialised/novelty decks



For myself last night i logged in to get my 3 wins for the WOW mount. God what worst luck i had in my first arena run. Picked a pally and drafted what i thought was a decent deck, had a sword of justice, 2 or 3 argent protectors, silver moon guardian even a couple of argent squires, and then the blood knight appears in the epic group so im thinking gettin a decent synergy deck here.

I then proceeded to go 0-3 getting some awful card draw and meeting some people with just as lucky decks as me.

After that went for another arena run, picked hunter and has pretty much all the cards i could want, scavenging hyenas, starving buzzards, savannah highmane, gladiators long bow etc

Thought ill try and get a rush deck going and ended the night 3-0 with the hunter deck despite not having a taunt or silence in the deck. Gotta love hearthstone
