I am scared about Vex Crow and the possible hyper aggressive Mage that will end games in 5 Turns

There is a lot of good synergy to be had chipping away at health with small spells and flooding the board - the coin makes it even worse.

The more I think about it, the more I feel Vex Crow will be the card everyone is complaining about 10 hours from now. :(
Thats the first deck I want to try ;)

I strongly disagree, paying a bunch of mana and cards for a boad full of 2 drops isn't game winning. getting 3 2 drops on turn 4, that's insane, but vex isn't near cta broken, i'd be surprised if it didn't suck/mediocre

Anyone else excited to test Big Spell Mage with these new cards?

-Baleful Banker (to copy big minions like Baron Geddon and Lich King, who is my replacement for Medivh, also helps against fatigue)
-Witchwood Piper (to draw my atificers)
-Voodoo Doll (removal against annoying minions like Tyrantus and ping target for DK Jaina)
-Arcane Keysmith (a situational scecret is really nice)
-Witchwood Grizzly or Rotten Applebaum (seem to be good taunts against aggro)

After completely sitting out the last expansion, I'm excited to get back into Hearthstone. Definitely needed the time away from the game to rekindle the passion I have for it.

Do we need to have one or two quest spots open when the expansion drops?
Two if you haven't completed any quests today, but one if you have.

I definitely am. I've been using a version without Ice Block and Arcaneologist to get ready for the rotation, and I still have a lot of fun with it.

There is an absolutely bonkers OTK combo in Rogue with Azalina and Sonya that Chakki discovered.


It sounds really fun, but I don't know if it's a "worth crafting Cho" kind of fun.

Whaaa? I might be brain farting. But why does how many quests you completed today already affect how many quests you'd receive when the expansion launches? I figured you'd be in the best shape to receive new quests if you had an empty quest log so I cleared it out this morning.

You just want an open space for the druid skin quest. That's it.

Sorry, I had a brain fart myself, because what I said applies to yesterday, and not today.

Just to make myself clearer:
  • Yesterday, you'd need to have two slots open if you weren't going to start playing today until the expansion goes live. That's because there's the regular daily quest, but also the quest for the new druid hero (which goes live when the expansion does). The druid quest overwrites a quest slot if you already have three, so you'd be losing out on gold/packs.
  • Right now, though, the daily quests have been added, but the expansion and druid quest aren't live. So you just need to make sure that you have one slot open before then.

Dammit this game is now completely unplayable on my iPhone 6. It sometimes would chug occasionally but now it's consistent. So much so that I miss plays and occasionally entire turns because I run out of time.

Anyone had luck with any tricks to make it work better? It can't be like this for everyone.

Thats pretty sick, but I can't imagine you'll ever get it in practice. Aggro will murder you before the setup and control just won't go below six cards.

Expansion Hype! Still bummed that the single player isn't coming till later, but I'll still open a ton of packs today. Got my preorder and over 7k gold ready to go.

What's going to happen is I'm going to forget it exists then in two months some random person is going to use it against me in ladder and it'll totally work.

It'll be that meme Priest corrupted healbot deck all over again.

Sorry for the repeat q (and maybe it's just idiotic), but do you guys open all your packs in one go? or try and trick the RNG Succubus by chunk opening over a few hours or days?

there is no such thing as that, opening them all in one go or in various moments is the same. the servers still keep track of whenever you will get any rarity.

I usually open them in one huge chunk on the weekend after the release because I like to record my pack opening.

Thanks for the answer.

Looking forward to seeing which random free legendary I get: Shudderwock, please!

The best time in Hearthstone is almost upon us. :D

New Year with sets rotating out, new set inbound and just playing for the first week whilst the meta settles (bar Cubelock and Murloc Pally) it's going to be a blast.

I don't think murloc paladin is going to be relevant at all. Aggro paladin will be all dudes all the time.

Vex crow seems like a worse violets teacher. Like, okay the summons are better but mage still can't leverage wide boards like other classes, can't summon as early as druid and rogue, and the 3/3 main body sucks.

When I steal it with burgle rogue it might be pretty good sometimes.

It's just like my platoon sergeant used to say...
"50 of you are going to buy packs, only 25 of you are getting anything good."
