3 wins from Bronze 10 to Silver, new ranking system does a good job of getting you out of the new player zone pretty sharpish.

adamarama posted:I don't like the new ranking system, it's far less transparent. The various leagues are meaningless because you are always matched with people who had the same mmr as you last season. It only becomes true ranking when you lose your bonus stars, it's all a facade before that.

Yeah it's a simple fix to just make Apprentice only reduce spells to a minimum of 1 cost. That still allows plenty of combos to played off it but doesn't get stupid broken when you cheat out a bunch of them.

Jolly Jumbuck posted:I too got a legendary from this Tavern Brawl pack. Interestingly, I knew it before looking at card glow colors because it gave me 100 coins for the "one of everything" achievement. Since I was only missing one card, Natalie Seline, I knew it had to be her. Spooky that it happened like 5 minutes after reading your post!

I net decked an interesting looking Big Warrior netdeck. Rattlegore, Troublemaker, Kargath... Nice, nice got all these legendaries. Load up a game, play out Troublemaker on turn 8, he loads up on the enemy and does his thing, gets cleared next turn. Get to turn 10 for Dimensional Ripper and.... What?! A Troublemaker?! It's a loving rare?! WHAT How is that a rare, that's insane! It's a solid legendary card, that.

Just had a Big Warrior game where we played Rattlegore consecutively and then over numerous turns both eventually got down to being 1/1s and removed hardway. Funniest Rattlegore moment yet, just think of the value generated!

Polkelt and Sapience are pretty much the safest crafts possible if you like combo decks. In the standard pool for another 1 year and 8 months with unique affects that enable combo decks to work, they'll certainly see play in at least fun fringe decks through that whole period and in wild too.

If I had to guess on nerfs they would be to Druid. The amount of bullshit those ramp decks can pull out of their rear end is ridiculous. The only way to beat Ramp Druids is to hope they draw their deck the wrong way round because outside of Warrior with RNG on their side there simply is no competing.

Scrub-Niggurath posted:Definitely don’t cut a darkglare they’re key to big turns and free taps Has worked for me! Definitely made the working from home on a Friday go a little smoother. Darkglares are definitely great and I'll probably cut a Brittlebone instead but I find the Darkglares often leave dead mana, which is why I cut.

That Nohealth Warlock deck is insane. After losing 3 of the first 4 games I've played with it I've now gone 27-1 over the next 28, and just won my 24th consecutive game. Sick. I feel like I'm going to start on a massive losing streak at the start of every game but hasn't happened yet...

Flayer posted:Yes, it's crazy fun. I just reached D10 with it myself (44-10 from the bottom of Gold8 with no star bonus) and it just beats everything with exception of Demon Hunter which I have a 0 (zero) percent win rate against. It's too easy for DH to punish low life totals.

It's weird to balance new cards in Standard for Wild. Blizz must have some serious plans for Wild card collections to nerf a perfectly balanced Standard card to improve Wild.

Flayer posted:This is actually pretty solid. The final Mecha combo costing only 3 mana gives it a lot of wriggle room and Secret Passage allowing you to hoard cards right into the combo is powerful defensively.

Is it your deck? It's very good. I'm not sure if Hemet works though because 2 of the 3 combo pieces are 1 mana and most games I found myself needing one of those pieces to complete the combo. Hemet would certainly allow some pretty unstoppable turn 6-8 kills if you got Secret Passage, Broomstick and Hemet in the first few turns but probably less consistent overall. Worth trying out tho, instead of maybe one of the Saps. I also thought about using Vanish as a tech card against aggro but the wild meta seems pretty hellbent on value and outlasting at the moment. Perfect fodder for Mechathun...

Yeah, the Secret Passage nerf is only a small one to this deck. Slightly less options when digging out draw with the second passage in the deck but that's all.

Illuminti posted:I know it's me because I've tried like 5 net decks, (which I hate doing. I always try and make up a deck or use one that isn't very common but I had to try something) and I can't even get to gold level this month. I'm stuck in silver. I was gold 1 last month. If you're facing a lot of big value decks (for you example Druid) then I'd recommend climbing with Resurrect Priest. The value is so insanely high that if you get through the first few turns it's very hard to lose (I slotted the +3/+3 quest into mine and it was a pretty smooth ride to D5 this month).

If it actually cast the spell it would not be a good enough card to fit into competitive decks, although this might be a good thing. The deck doesn't seem like a huge problem on ladder to be fair - I've only faced off against the combo once on ladder this month.

I feel like Turtle Mage is one of those fun meme decks that has been one of the rare ones to actually turn out broken good. For memery especially the Obelisk version, although that seems to have fallen out of favour.

The great thing about Lil' Rag is that it works great for literally any build. You'll get more buffs of him by cycling random elementals than using specialist buffs apart from very specific builds (eg Macaw/Goldrinn beast).

I have 10k+ gold in the bank, play battlegrounds and haven't bought the pass. It just seems pointless, just take whatever hero and play the best lines. There's only a handful of heroes I actively dislike. I agree with the poster above about Chenvala though, just got that hero for the first time and it was absolutely easy mode. Getting to Tier5 super fast and grabbing all the Djinns is easy mode.

Djinni was already pretty nasty at Tier6, what on earth prompted them to pop it down to T5. Elementals did not need the boost even with Rag going to 6.

I like the look of this new duels mode. It will be interesting to see the full structure and how it plays out - is it 12 wins like Arena? Is it always a 1v1 best of 5?

You basically have to level up very greedily and just take a few hits if you have to. Much better than leveling up slow then getting smashed in the face for 20+ on a loss and being irretrievably behind because of all the crazy scaling that's available from T5+. A strong Murloc start can maybe stay at 4 for a while to poison up and try and triple into Brands/Bagurgle.
