    Lame. But it only takes a couple of hours to get to 20. I'll knock it out tomorrow. It sounds like it's bugged right now. Lots of people reporting hitting 20 and not unlocking her.

    This is pure speculation but if you have an old WOW account I think you'll be able to get Lady Liadrin pretty easily. I have an old account that I haven't logged into in years prior to today. But I still have the game on my computer and it updates through Battlenet so everything was up to...

    Hearthstone

    Freeze Mage isn't popular enough to justify running Kezan Mystic. And stealing one secret from a Paladin isn't a large enough swing to play Kezan. All Eater of Secrets does is keep the Meta honest. If another very secret heavy deck emerges than Eater will become a tech choice. But in a...

    That's much stronger than Kezan Mystic. It's a very viable tech card. With that said Secrets aren't going to be nearly as prevalent as before. Secret Paladin is going to be absolutely gutted by all of the cards rotating out. Even assuming they get some high quality replacements the loss of...

    Giant Sandworm: Hunter Epic. 8/8 for 8 mana. If this minion kills another minion it may attack again. Way too slow for Hunter. It doesn't fit their class at all. It also has zero board impact the turn it plays (even with Standard this is still, almost, a requirement for an 8 drop). It...

    Weight Loss Thread

    212 lbs exactly on the scale this morning. 38 lbs lost since November. Yesterday was the first time I bought 36 waist pants in years. Got them from the outlet mall because I'm hoping to get down to a 34 but I needed new ones for work. My old ones were starting to get ragged and were getting...

    First reaction is that Hogger doesn't look too bad. Decent body and ability and you should be guaranteed to get one Gnoll off of him. With that said I remember Troggzor and he could easily be another one of those. If you're behind than the opponent can ignore him and keep applying pressure...

    I don't think the new paladin card will replace Mustard. Mustard's beauty was being an early game board presence with a weapon to help deal with small drops. On turn 5 I want more than five 1/1s. Especially with Quartermaster rotating out.

    I wouldn't view that as a precedent. Naxx was released nearly 2 years ago and it, most likely, hasn't even crossed their minds. They don't really go back and balance around Arena so Thaddius just never got on their radar in regards to Arena. C'Thun is a bit different since they're making a...

    Hearthstone

    It makes sense to keep C'Thun cards out of Arena. While some pass the vanilla test they're intended to synergize with a deck theme and you won't get that in Arena. It might make the pool of Arena cards smaller but it's a good decision. At least that's the opinion of someone who never plays...

    5,300 Gold here. 235 Dust. If I hit the "Disenchant Extra Cards" button right now I'd get 5,750 dust. I don't disenchant until I'm ready to craft something or cards actually get nerfed. So 2 months until Whispers means a minimum of 2,700 more gold assuming nothing but 40 gold "win 2 games...

    Hearthstone

    My initial, gut reaction, with C'Thun is that at 10 mana he's going to eat up your entire turn so he's extremely slow. And you really need to build your deck around him. With that said it's a good battlecry that actually does something really good the turn it's played so that weighs in it's...

    C'Thun: Too slow. He's a win more card. My opinion is subject to change but that's my initial gut feeling.

    The worst part is that Blizzard KNOWS they're making a mistake. They once said that it was a huge mistake to announce Naxx as early as they did. And now they're repeating that exact mistake.

    I started losing weight back in November. I'm also 5'8" but I started at 250 lbs. Since that time I've lost 37 lbs and I'm down to about 213 today. Here's what worked for me: First of all I took an honest look at my calorie intake before starting my diet. It was way too high because I was...

    In a vacuum Paladin is going to be absolutely gutted. We don't know what Whispers is going to offer them but I really doubt it's going to be enough to offset everything they're losing. A mid-range Paladin might be passable like it was in Classic but it's doubtful that it's going to be a Tier...

    Definitely glad to see this. The sooner they get it out the better. The meta is so stale right now. But I'm less than 30 wins to golden pally.

    I just pulled my first 5 star from a daily draw. White Robe from IX with a shared SB Raise. It's not a great item by any means and my IX synergy is already amazing but I can't complain too much.

    It's all speculation until we start getting new expansion previews. Some of the losses might not be that bad if new cards are cycled in that can perform similar roles. But I have a feeling that Blizzard wants a really big shack up to the meta so we're not going to see to see another Belcher...

    Loatheb is a big loss and I'm going to miss him quite a bit. He goes into 95% of my decks and he has, straight up, won me so many games. Anyfin Paladin? Loatheb on Turn 10 can cripple them. Freeze Mage? Again, Loatheb can buy you that turn they wanted to go full burn. Force / Roar? LOL...

    Since Mondaily sucks I decided to give Bahamut another try. I beat him earlier but didn't master the fight. I went in with the same group (though I egged everyone to cap) but was much more methodical about the fight. It took about 5 or 6 reloads but I got him with Mastery :-) Really glad I...

    Swords and Daggers should be left uncombined as long as possible. These are weapon types that lots of characters can use so having multiple copies increases your Record Synergy for that realm. Having two or three Swords with Record Synergy makes for a strong group in that Realm. Once you have...

    Well this was the fastest I've hit Rank 10(my normal goal is Rank 10 and if I get Rank 5 even better). 99% of my games with Secret Paladin and I'm 74 wins from Golden Paladin. I kept getting 1 star from rank 10 and then dropping back 3 or 4 stars. I finally played against a Hunter where I...

    One other thing specific to Reno Lock (the most common Reno deck by far). You need to be aware of their board clears. They run a LOT of them. Demonwrath at 3 mana to do 2 damage to all non-demons. Hellfire at 4 mana to deal 3 damage to everything (including the heroes). Shadowflame at 4...

    Hearthstone

    Whenever I recognize a Reno Deck I go full board control and I hold back as much as I can until I'm ready to go for the kill. Generally the Reno Deck wants you to run out of threats by wasting stuff. So the goal is to have a commanding board presence when Reno comes down so it can be killed...

    No. Don't egg anyone up to 50 for Record Materia. You don't need it yet. It also doesn't unlock automatically either. You need to get them to level 50 which is the cap. Then you need to use a Memory Crystal to break their level cap (which allows them to continue leveling to 65 which is...

    Consensus top 3 are Stormlance Grimoire for Tyro, Tyrfing for Luneth and Storm Staff for Garnet. A case can be made for any of the 3. Stormlance is probably the best pick for a veteran player that hasn't ever drawn Tyro's most powerful Relic (Sentinel Grimoire) since it can do a lot of damage...

    This will be the first Ultimate that I don't Master. I completed it last night in a very close fight (Yuna died at the end and if my next hit hadn't killed him than I'd have wiped). It's incredibly overtuned in my opinion. My problem was Actions taken. I hit all 3 special Mastery Conditions...

    Losing Mad Scientist hurts Hunters and Mages both but Face Hunter survived without Mad Scientist in Classic and I think they'll find a way to survive in Standard. But a Knife Juggler nerf in conjunction with the loss of Scientist might put them out of the running. But Face Hunter has survived...

    Yeah. The meta is incredibly stale right now. There's a few different decks out there around rank 5ish but they haven't changed in months. Combo Druid, Secret Paladin, Aggro Shaman are the big 3. Tempo Mage and Zoo/Reno Lock are next. And you'll see a few Priests and Warriors. That might...

    Collectively our two biggest misfires were Dr. Boom who nobody saw coming and Troggzor who was a complete flop. Not here but I remember that the Blizzard Forums overreacted to Varian Wyrnn in a huge way. He turned out exactly as we predicted here. Overhyped and a substandard "win more"...

    Man I hate Aggro Shaman. I know the deck falls flat if you have a few taunts and/or some healing but I'm still stubborn with Secret Paladin (which doesn't run much of either really) and Aggro Shaman is a very good match up against Secret Paladin. I'm tempted just to finish my grind to 500...

    Not a bad haul. I pulled Zack's Glove too and I'm pretty happy with it. It's a solid damage SB with Dismissal on it and the Gloves themselves are really good attack. I can only imagine how much is on a fully upgraded 7* version. And ever since pulling two Watches chasing after Sephiroth's...
