    I'm rank 14 and just got matched with an 11. I think everyone is playing Heroes of the Storm.

    Just lost to a mill Rogue. On the turn he killed me, I started with 28 health. He played 4 Coldlight Oracles that turn... 100% fatigue damage to take me from 28 to dead. Ouch.

    Decided to spend some time today taking Patron Warrior for a spin. Mistakes have been made, but I'm 5-5 so far. Biggest problem is that I've gone 0-3 vs. Druids. First of all, I never run into this many Druids - maybe it's an intentional meta response to Patron. Secondly, any tips? Their...

    Just played against a Lock named Feargaus who played a gold version of every single card he played... both class and neutrals. Crazy. Haven't seen anything like that before. Is he a known pro?

    Great, thanks. So the Ilum breadcrumb is just for the planet quests, but not class story quests technically?

    I've been doing the 12x story thing on a new JK and just finished chapter 3. Where do I go now to continue the story - Ilum or Makeb? I want to keep doing the 12x story quests. Thanks.

    Nevermind, think I figured it out. Bought a Cartel Market speeder off the GTN that went into my Collection.

    Question about mounts. What's the most economical way to get each tier if you are just running some toons through the stories? One option would be to pay creds for each of the 3 tiers, but that would add up. Is there a method for buying an adaptive mount that increases speed with your riding...

    Quick question: does it still cost a fair amount of creds to pull mods out of gear?

    Cool. I have about 4 million creds on my main from back in the day, so would like to see about getting a stronghold setup mainly for the convenience of the legacy bank.

    SWTOR

    Thanks. That clears some things up. I have 3 50's from back in the day. How do I access or start a Stronghold? Is there a quest to get it started or something?

    Biggest question atm is the Bind to Legacy gear. Got some starfigher orange gear in the mail. How is this shared among your toons? Is there a best way or, vice versa, are there any pitfalls to avoid? Does the gear go into your collection somehow and then accessible by all your toons or do...

    Holy shit... collections, bound to legacy, adaptive armor, decorations. So confused and all I've done was open my mail. Anyone have a good reference for returning players?

    You fuckers and this 12x thing are sucking me back in. Don't even remember what server my toons are on. Haven't played since max level was 50.

    Real shit morning on the ladder for me - dropped from 8 to 9. Shitty play by me, shitty draws, and shitty match-ups. Fucking tilt. But anyway, here's your morning ladder recon: Out of 12 matches played, I saw 4 Hunters and 3 Grim Patron Warriors (along with 2 mech mages and 2 handlocks)...

    Here's a little thought experiment for you... what deck is a solid counter to all forms of Warlock (Zoo, DemonLock, and Handlock)? This is kind of tough since one is aggro, one mid, and one control. Maybe Control Warrior or...?? What do you guys think... what deck is best at handling all...

    What is the deal with $$ expansion passes? When did these become a "thing"? $25 for a couple DLC's months down the road seems kind of ridiculous to me. Is this something from console land that is now becoming common for PC games? After getting burned on a few pre-ordered titles last year...

    Good point on Kezan Mystic. I think I will swap in one. I agree about the armoring up and had been doing that as much as possible. Had not been saving Lore's for the heal though. Had been using them for card draw. Thanks for the suggestions.

    I might have to burn some dust that I was saving for a legendary on a couple Doomsayers and try it out myself.

    I'm playing Druid for the daily this morning. I've read at 2 different places that mid-Druid is favored over Freeze Mage, but I've lost to 2 this morning. How is Druid favored over Freeze Mage? Any general tips for playing against Freeze Mage? I know we've got a couple Freeze Mage players...

    Hearthstone

    Yeah, I hear what you are saying. Part of the frustration for me is that I tend to prefer the counter-punching control style (pulling victory from the jaws of defeat), but have a much easier time winning with more aggressive decks. After struggling the past couple days with various control...

    Been getting real salty lately with this game. Might need to step away for a while. Past couple months I reside around 11-7 on the ladder (average about 4.5 wins in Arena, so overall, not great, but not bad). This month I'm around 15 and getting really pissed off at both the RNG and the...

    What hero/deck is a solid counter for DemonLock? 4 of 6 matches this morning were against variations of demonlock. They seem to be in a pretty good place right now. I don't have Jarax or Malganis so can't see for myself. I was playing a dragon Priest this morning and not doing well with it...

    Can anyone clarify the mechanics of Duplicate for me, please? I was playing Mage in Arena and had a damaged Boulderfist Ogre on the board. Opponent plays and Explosive Sheep. I ping it with hero power, Ogre dies, but Duplicate does NOT trigger. Does it only trigger on your opponent's turn?

    Fuck me... just got hit with a Deathwing in Arena. I need to punch something. I don't think any card can turn around a game as much as Deathwing (especially in Arena late turns when people are top-decking). You don't have a chance to do anything to counter it like you would with Sylvanas...

    I crafted Antonidas today (yah!) so have been playing mage. Been messing around with a mech mage that uses Flamewalkers instead of Spider Tanks and uses the spare parts as fuel.

    Hearthstone

    Perhaps Clockwork Gnomes or Mech Yeti's for the spare parts? Or Antonidas with all those spells could generate a boatload of fireballs.

    Just a heads-up for those of you around ranks 8-10... 4 of my 8 matches this afternoon have been against Druids. A couple were more control than midrange cause they played Ancients of War.

    Hearthstone

    Thanks for the response. Seems similar to other match-ups in the sense that a good mulligan with backstabs, deadly poisions, eviscerates, etc. will go a long way towards victory (with the opposite also being true). I'm not a very experienced rogue player, so am trying to figure this out as I...

    Been trying to practice a bit with Oil Rogue. I've read that I'm supposed to beat Druids, but am struggling with them and their constant stream of large minions. Is this just a tough match-up, or is it my play that's lacking? Like I said, I've read that Druid is supposed to be favorable...

    Welcome. If you are going to invest any cash, I strongly suggest the Naxx adventure. You get a number of cards from it that are used in many competitive decks.

    Some streamer do well with Midrange Hunter recently? Ran into a couple my last 2 games after not seeing any on the ladder for a long time. Edit: Make that 3 Mid-Range Hunters in a row at rank 13. Haven't seen them in ages, but they are back. Perhaps a response to Grim Patron Warriors...

    I completed third Heroic using a control Pally, but I think Rag sort of bugged out on me. Not that it would have mattered at that point, but he never used his hero power on me. He was in a top-deck situation and just sort of sat there while I went to his face on 2 turns.
