OMG.
I played Pala in arena and I got 10 creatures with spell power in the pool and the only cards that dealt damage that I got were : 1 consecration, 1 Hammer of Wrath.
Why arena why?
+ I got like 7 pirates plus the Southsea captain (+1/+1 to all other pirates) and no weapons.
+ I got 5 Murlocs. Most of them rare, but they weren't worth it.
+ I got 3 Argent Commanders and 1 Avenging Wrath, 1 defender of argus and 1 Secretkeeper and 3 secrets in the entire pool.
First game against Warlock: Everything is going well. Then he plays Ragnaros, Lord of the Arena, Voidwalker, Doomguard. Really? I don't even get 1 legendary and he gets Ragnaros.Windows hasn't detected any keyboard. Press Enter.-

You picked murlocs. And pirates. What were you thinking? You had other picks, that weren't part of a "get everything in this set to be useful" set. Don't blame rag. And don't take stuff that's reliant on combos in arena, unless you've already got the rest of the combo.
I mean, taking one of murlocs or pirates is usually foolhardy but both... wow.-

Also pirates seem really strong to me if you can get a bunch of them. I've taken pirate cards independently simply due to stats.Fluffy fluffy~~~ |"READING KATSUKI IS LIKE SOME SORT OF POSTMODERN ARTFORM"- GreyICE

All pirates are either bad or very reliant on weapons to be useful.
The 3/3 with taunt for 4 really wants a weapon or it's too expensive. Good in maybe warrior if you get a fiery war axe, or deadly poison rogue, otherwise nope.
Same for the 2/1 with charge if you've a weapon - 2/1 is really weak unless you have mitigating factors like charge, stealth or not actually being on the board until the enemy attacks. Even then, it's just a 2 damage hope you trade 1 for 1.
The 2/3 with +attack for weapon attack is okay without weapons, and does combo pretty well with weapons, so okay.
The 1/2 that removes enemy durability - not as good as ooze. And ooze is actually common.
The captain... isn't great without a bunch of other pirates. And it's an epic. If you've an epic, you should get a good card at least.
Greenskin, again, needs weapons. His ability is really cool with weapons.
About mages, the mage cannot take all of these three things.
1) A bunch of flamestrikes
2) Low-cost delay spells/minions.
3) A bunch of big minions.
If they do put out all these things, then their deck is risky, they don't have many low cost spells/minions and they just got lucky on you.
Hmm, that said, polymorph/fireball do deal with bigguns pretty well, so they don't need big minions... IDK-

I didn't pick them. I just had them in the pool. I'll post my list later.In post 152, Siveure DtTrikyp wrote:You picked murlocs. And pirates. What were you thinking?

Also if anyone want to challenge me, just add me and if I'm online I'll gladly accept it.

The battlenet server where your battletag is stored is only one. Hearthstone uses that server.In post 158, Siveure DtTrikyp wrote:Don't think so. Which server you made your hearthstone account on is important, or at least it was in closed beta.
I'm siveure #2278 Idk what you are and cba looking at thread.
One of my friends made an account for NA and I made my account for Europe and we were allowed to duel.

WHEEEE! just went 10-3 in Arena (best record so far) and pulled an Al'Akir the Windlord out of the prize pack!!
Second legendary yay (although he's rather underwhelming).
Never touched Shaman, so I just got my Shaman to level 10 and I'm running this:
2 Forked Lightning
2 Lightning Bolt
1 Stormforged Axe
2 Acidic Swamp Ooze
2 Kobold Geomancer
2 Novice Engineer
2 Feral Spirit
2 Hex
2 Lightning Storm
2 Questing Adventurer
2 Shattered Sun Cleric
2 Ogre Magi
1 Spellbreaker
2 Windspeaker
1 Bloodlust
2 Fire Elemental
1 Al'Akir the Windlord

I suggest more things like a Razorfen Hunter or Murloc tidecaller that come with more than one body. Bloodlust is practically: Win the game if you have at least 3 creatures on the board.In post 160, xRECKONERx wrote:WHEEEE! just went 10-3 in Arena (best record so far) and pulled an Al'Akir the Windlord out of the prize pack!!

I have the worst epic luck, 3 epics in my arena deck, and they all sucked (though the secrets I took have won me games so).In post 154, Siveure DtTrikyp wrote: The captain... isn't great without a bunch of other pirates. And it's an epic. If you've an epic, you should get a good card at least.
Say you got lucky and managed 3-4 flamestrikes.About mages, the mage cannot take all of these three things.
1) A bunch of flamestrikes
2) Low-cost delay spells/minions.
3) A bunch of big minions.
If they do put out all these things, then their deck is risky, they don't have many low cost spells/minions and they just got lucky on you.
Hmm, that said, polymorph/fireball do deal with bigguns pretty well, so they don't need big minions... IDK
That's still 26 cards to play with, in which you'd have a bunch of low mana, a few bigger minions, and then other control cards. Mage is mainly about countering, and if you can neutralize their big minions/combos, then you can win most of the time.Fluffy fluffy~~~ |"READING KATSUKI IS LIKE SOME SORT OF POSTMODERN ARTFORM"- GreyICE

Raging Worgen is usually dead so it's pretty bad.
Ironfur Grizzly is okay but I wouldn't take it unless the other two options just sucked ass.
I don't think there's a card I'd take Secret Keeper over in the game. Except Alarm-O-Bot. Fuck that card.
Repentance and Redemption are both really bad.
Ironbeak Owl really is okay but might've been overkill since you have two Spellbreakers.
Murloc Tidehunter is never the right pick unless your other two options were like... Wisp & Goldshire Footman.green shirt thursdays-

All the cards you guys mentioned are bad, cause that's what arena gave me. I don't remember exactly what the other cards were, but I can tell you they were pretty bad.
For Secretkeeper (first pick) I remember I had to choose between the murloc that gives +2 health to other murlocs as battlecry and the 4/5 giant that can't attack.
I spent 3 minutes thinking what I should pick. I went with secret keeper cause Paladin has secrets and they are cheap and she can be useful sometimes.Windows hasn't detected any keyboard. Press Enter.-

I mean coldlight seer is probably the best of the bunch. ancient watch is pretty great with sunfurys and argus'(and silences!) but you cant depend on getting those.In post 170, vezokpiraka wrote:All the cards you guys mentioned are bad, cause that's what arena gave me.

I mean you could take secret keeper but don't build a deck around that pick. just treat it as a garbage 1 drop and don't amplify the problem by taking other shitty picks just because you got forced into making one bad pick.ShowRumpelstiltskin Grinder

I didn't pick the secrets because they are good. I picked them because I had other useless things. One had Holy Light, Redemption and Wisp. I don't try to pick useless cards, but sometimes I'm forced to do it. The next time I'll start an arena run I'll post my pool and what I've picked.In post 171, pickemgenius wrote:

back to back arena runs on Paladin with literally the worst card pools I've ever gotten in arena
Mind Control Tech/Auctioneer/Mana Addict as my choices both times
The only decent Rare or higher I got was one Avenging Wrath the second go around
I had Imp Master both times as my "best" rare. ugh i hate this damn game sometimesgreen shirt thursdays-
