    Thanks for the feedback. I already had replaced Justicar with a Lightbomb. I'll have to consider your points about Curator and Velen's, etc. Though I am loving the Bran interaction with whelp, wyrmrest, blackwing tech, twilight guard, and blackwing corruptor. So many battlecries to...

    Lost 3 in a row at rank 8. Now 9-4 overall. Going to put in 1 Lightbomb and maybe a 2nd Entomb.

    In the spirit of sharing, I'm 7-1 so far with this dragon list that I put together myself. It's fairly standard but with Bran and no Lightbombs (also no BGH targets). It seems to have enough early game minions to stand up to aggro and enough threats for control. The Dark Cultist or Justicar...

    I thought the brawl was kinda fun this week. Still not going to play more than 1, but fun nonetheless. This week rewards a card back instead of a pack.

    I really want to have some fun with this deck, but 0-3 (admittedly a very small sample) atm with it. Dead on T6 by aggro shaman who developed a big overloaded elemental. I had 2 Auchs, but not circle. Lightbomb on T6 was too little, too late. In the meta that I'm seeing, it needs more early...

    Second tempo mage in a row. Dead on turn 7. I can list a turn by turn to see if I'm doing anything wrong, but don't think I did that game. Just getting completely steam-rolled.

    I could use some priest tips. I'm not a very experienced priest player. I started messing around yesterday with a pretty standard entomb, deathlord, lightbomb deck. I'm getting run over by tempo mages. Everytime I play a t3 Deathlord, they have flame cannon, hero power, and minion and he's...

    Does Bran plus Loatheb cause enemy spells to cost 10 more the next turn?

    Seems like Secret Paladins are back in force on the ladder. I've seen more today than probably the entire past week combined. I'm having a little fun with Anyfin Pally.

    Same 6 mana as Siphon Soul and much better effect.

    Yeah, I was playing Reno Lock and beat 2 of the 3 I faced. Lightbomb is a Priest's best friend against Handlock. It can easily take care of giants.

    Public service announcement: At rank 10 this morning, I played 4 games. 3 were against priests. (Makes me much happier than the constant face aggro I was seeing earlier this week.)

    My luck continues... Doing Heroic Rafaam Unleashed as a priest. I was in prime position - I had 2 full health KT's on the board (1 from Faceless). He had empty board. He burgles Mass Dispel from me... you've got to be fucking kidding.

    I wasn't playing back when Miracle Rogue was a thing, but I have a rogue quest so thought I try this new version. First 2 games were against freeze mages. What are the fucking odds? I have never had a worse streak of luck than I've had this week. I will not be betting on football this weekend.

    I played a few games last night with Elise in my Control Reno Mage deck. Got the Monkey twice. Once I didn't play it because I didn't want it to overwrite the Reno I had in hand. The second time I played it, but ended up wishing I hadn't. Would have rather had Flamestrike and Poly then...

    I can't think of the last time I lost to a normal adventure mode boss, but Rafaam destroyed me with my reno control mage deck. Time to give him a shit deck, lol.

    Think someone mentioned this last week, but I just did it too. Queued for ranked by accident with a deck meant for the adventure. Oops. Almost pulled it out, but lost.

    Hearthstone

    Had an interesting interaction today. You may be aware already, but anyway... I had a counterspell up. My opponent had a summoning stone (from unstable portal). Opponent casts a spell which my counterspell blocks, but still summoned the minion anyway. Thought it was a little odd.

    Hearthstone

    Agreed. At ranks 14-15, the meta is either uber aggro or turtling with heals, taunts, and reno. There is little room for any Midrange because they get steam-rolled by all the aggro. I'm seeing tons of aggro/token druid, aggro shaman, zoo lock, face hunter. Even strong midrange decks like...

    Jesus fucking christ. I just got hungry crabbed. I need to step away before my blood pressure goes through the roof. Edit: I can't remember a stretch of such shitty luck as I've had tonight. Constant shitty mulligans and draws with shit clogging my hand and nothing to play (with 15 3 mana...

    Though OTK Pally looked fun, so decided to give a try. I'm 1-4 atm. Getting awful mulligans and getting steam rolled by aggro. Have yet to reach the point of a turn 10 Anyfin turn. Kinda takes the fun out of it.

    I played against a raptor rogue who had the dream opening on me. Turn 1 - coin, egg, 2 - egg, 3 - raptor, 4 - defender of argus on the 2 eggs. I was salty.

    Now, I get the mechanics. It's just the most RNG and not fun of all the Brawls so far. Nice work, Blizzard.

    I just played first brawl and have no clue what is going on. Are we supposed to somehow return crappy cards from our hand to our deck. I have no clue what that second big red arrow meant after I hit End Turn. Am I supposed to do something at that point? Help... WTF.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    I just picked up the GotY Edition. Before I get too far along, I wanted to ask a couple questions. First, melee or ranged? The combat seems a little clunky as melee. Would you suggest a ranged toon? Second, here are the classes I'm considering: 2H Templar, ranged artificer or tempest, or a...

    This is the most I've played Hearthstone in a couple months and it was painful. Finished 7-15 (was 6-7 at one point and thought I was getting the hang of it...) with an 8 game losing streak in there. Thanks for all the tips. Got a long way to go apparently.

    That's what I mean. Sorry if I wasn't clear. Started to think I was getting the hang of it when I was 6-7, then promptly lost 5 in a row. Alex, then attempting to burst doesn't work so well against Reno.

    I guess fatigue damage counts as damage on your turn. Ice Block 101, fun times. Edited for clarity.

    Question about Ice Block mechanics. I've had 2 instances today where it didn't save me from death. The first was the Ysera do 5 damage to all spell. The second was a boom bot explosion. What am I missing here?

    Hearthstone

    Yeah, it's going to take a while to find that balance of using spells to survive vs. saving them for lethal. I'm mostly looking for mad sci and loot hoarder when I mulligan. Anything else? 2-5 now. Beat a Shaman. Lost to a strange pally deck with MC and KT. Got to turn 19 with 2 dead ice...

    I'm trying out freeze mage for the first time (no Reno, but 2 torches). 1-4 at rank 13 atm. How do you know if you are losing to bad draw (good opponent draw) or bad play? I've beaten one handlock and lost to everything else. Fucking tempo mage killed me on turn 5, and an aggro druid on turn...
