Nah, I think I just massively outclassed a lot of newbies due to my M:tG experience. I got a run of 12 straight wins which took me all the way to rank 18 so I may have gotten a little cocky, but now I'm having
much
more trouble with my opponents. It seems my deck really isn't that amazing after all when playing against people who actually know how the game works ;)
Yeah I hit rank 15 then proceeded to repeatedly get my ass handed to me on a silver platter.

What I've really noticed is how the people I'm facing have way more expensive cards than me. Right now I'm lucky if I have one or two rares that fit my decks, yet my opponents are all using marvellous combos with their rare and higher cards. I guess that's just the pain of being a newbie ;)

So the fact that you can do things like play Doomguard or Soulfire without having cards to discard really annoys me.

It's not a cost, I know. But they're effects that appear to be meant to counterbalance otherwise low mana costs for those cards.

Poor design, in my opinion, but I'm also half just pissed that I lost two very winnable games because a Lock was able to pull 4 damage for zero cost to finish me off.

Well, to be fair, if you have NO cards in hand you usually lose. That's why Soulfire/Doomguard are usually used as finishers because you go all in

Only works in a hunter deck (beastmaster/tamer/w.e its called), priest (hp+) or Pally (Bless) I think.

Can work with others that give hp but lols. Dunno who thought it up its a silly card

I just connected to the NA server and I finally saw the invites. Sadly, all of the progress I made on the EU server doesn't transfer there, and now that I'm back on EU my friends list is empty again. It seems like they're pretty much completely separate. Great job, Blizzard :facepalm:

Hearthstone currently lacks that capability but Blizzard has said they're planning on implementing it like they did for SC2.

Hunter and Warlock are two decks that are guaranteed to make me go on tilt if I'm playing. Guh.

lol yep

They're both the most hated decks in the game right now. I've found two counters to them: Warrior Control, and out-aggroing them.

Also have about a 60% winrate against them on my Shaman control deck but it's less reliable than the other two

The issue with Hunter is that without UtH, it's not a deck. But with UtH, it's unhinged bullshit.
