Hearthstone

Legendary heavy control warrior.

2 x Execute
2 x Shield Slam
2 x Whirlwind
2 x Fiery War Axe
2 x Slam
2 x Armorsmith
2 x Cruel Taskmaster
2 x Shield Block
2 x Acolyte of Pain
2 x Frothing Berserker
1 x Brawl
1 x Faceless Manipulator
1 x Cairne Bloodhoof
1 x Sylvanas Windrunner
1 x Gorehowl
1 x Baron Geddon
1 x Grommash Hellscream
1 x Ragnaros the Firelord
1 x Alexstraza
1 x Ysera

There are very few matchups where i struggle to win, although i usually end up stabilising against hunters at 5/6 life.

I think that's the deck as far as it can go. It isn't really missing anything in terms of cards I don't have and it's pretty similar to the deck i posted earlier in the thread just without the yetis and arguses. Obviously getting rid of the now defunct pagle and tinkmaster for a bit more removal.

Isn't that the same control warrior deck we were seeing at ranks 1-5 and legendary all the time before the Tink nerf? Has that nerf really made that much difference to where that deck can reach?

Also I hate the fact that everyone has just copied Trumps mage deck. Can't wait for Hearthstone to get a bunch more cards, because you rarely see a unique deck in the higher ranks nowadays.

The tink nerfs made it worse but the tink nerfs made every deck that was good against control warrior worse as well, so it's in the same overall place.

I was going to say, I figured it might be a control deck, by all accounts F2P Mage/Zoo/Hunter decks still seem to be the most commonplace decks at the higher ranks right now. Thankfully Handlock seems to be dropping off a bit, I hate that deck.

Yeah Tink's nerf has been a big hit to a lot of decks which relied on him as a piece of "hard" removal. Given that most targets would be bigger than the 5/5 dino it could potentially become, odds are it's not going to be easy to make the trade efficiently with other cards, and then you don't get the body on the board either.

Yeah I much prefer playing with my own decks. I'll probably not do as well as I've done with popular decks (I've gotten to 7/8 with Warlock Murloc and agro Warrior decks when they first showed up) but I like seeing how well I can do with decks I've formulated myself. If I can break through rank 10 this weekend before the season finishes (currently on 12), I'll be a happy man.

Just threw the game I needed to move up to my personal best of 11. Thought I was playing Ysera Awakens for lethal, turned out to be Nightmare and before I realised to cancel I'd buffed his Stoneclaw Totem into a 5/7 which I couldn't get through :facepalm:

Big announcement today, new episodic single player adventure mode coming this summer alongside 30 new cards :teeth:

Five have been revealed so far, four of which look very cool in my opinion;

I like them all to some extent, but Dancing Swords seems like an inferior Mukla. The drawbacks to both cards are quite similar, you know exactly what Mukla is going to give and is a stronger card in the first place (Beast synergy is also a minor bonus). Although at least Dancing Sword's drawback isn't immediate.

Just started this last night. Trying to decide what class I want to play. Thinking I might spend £14 to get some decks and then just play from there!

Just got all excited when I pulled a Legendary in a pack :teeth:

...turned out to be Tinkmaster :erm:

...go to disenchant, and I realise it's gold :teeth:

As pretty as he is, he's been disenchanted so I can afford any legendary. Now to decide what to craft :holmes:

I seriously suck balls at this game and can't seem to win - any tips?! I'm a n00b and keep coming against folk with ridiculous decks and losing, went about 7 matches in a row against opponents with raggy and other legendaries.

What deck(s) are you using for starters?

Well I kept on with mage for a bit, so a custom mage deck, but I don't think I've customised it very well - I put in loads of spells but don't have too many minions in it.

Also trying with the standard warrior deck, also sucking le balls with that!

Got any advice!?

Let us know your deck lists and we can give advice based on your card selections, deck composition etc :yep:

New Curse if Naxraamus card has been unveiled, a Druid card this time! Looks pretty interesting amd finally gives Druids some decent hard removal with some advantages over Poly/Hex (mass hard removal can be crippling and extremely efficient- say goodbye to those legendaries you played on 8, 9 and 10 for four mana) and some disadvantages (stronger resulting tokens, hits your board too) and some other very interesting potential applications since deathrattles still trigger.
