    Yes and no. You could play around the hunter OTK as much as you can this one, probably even more, by simply spamming the board a lot and killing him fast or by playing big taunters with a bunch of shit so he couldn't deadly shot them. Against warrior OTK it's a lot harder, first because there's...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    I actually installed this since I'm not playing anything, will check it out for an hour or so, see what exactly is up with it. Didn't even know I was registered for beta, must have been when the game just was announced it's on my old email.

    Warsong Commander is strong because it's Warsong Commander. The combination that leads to OTK is annoying but it's not really because of the other cards and entirely because of warsong commander. It gives charge to everything else as long as it's in play, it's actually one of the few cards that...

    They've actually shown a bunch of the esper skills in some dev video thing, I looked at it cause it showed healing in the first dungeon. It showed the other builder but it's like a melee range builder so while you can run around, it's not that great. That said you don't really need to use the...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    In terms of hotkeys and shit, I think I'd like at most 2 full bars of skills for a given class(standard 12 slots bars, so 24abilities per class). Could have more if they're like cosmetics and super situational stuff like self illusions and what not. Then about 1 bar of...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    What would be really cool about the streaming shit is if you could play Vita games on PS4. So, you know, you don't have to buy one. I guess it's not gonna happen since it means they wouldn't be selling as many Vitas and shit but that'd be nice and I would definitely consider it if that was the...

    Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition

    It's a lot harder to make a good old school RPG, regardless of the isometric and sprite based graphics. The key is the story, the character developement and the dialogues, which probably would take a fuckton more time than just making another procedurally generated rogue-like game or platformers...

    DOTA 2

    The games I've watched, which was most of them, were fairly shitty. Pretty much all stomps. I believe the first game of Alliance/VG had some interesting picks but didn't watch that one and buddy told me it was a stomp too.

    Well depends on your sources? If you know people in them and they told you maybe they're not but otherwise they wouldn't publicly say they're in a beta that is even more hidden than the normal closed beta and that they're testing endgame content there. And could be different guilds, they don't...

    Can assume standard high end wow guilds, I don't know who's big nowadays but used to be guilds like Vodka, Death n Taxes, Millenium and whoever else, basically you look at the wow ranking and they probably contacted those guilds to test raiding.

    I don't have most of the cards and don't wanna bother disenchanting stuff I could need later just to make the deck, that and I don't really play constructed either. I'm playing a traditional control druid and a semi OTK rogue atm(it's not like super OTK but it can easily do 15+damage burst in a...

    Hearthstone

    Really? Don't seem so bad to me, you don't need a lot of minions and you don't really need to necessarily OTK, you can play control and simply use the combo cards to do a finisher. Savage Roar+Force of Nature is a 2card combo for 14damage, Bite+Savagery+Hero power is a 2cards combo for 10, add a...

    Onyxia is kinda slow, need to play it then hope the opponent doesn't have a sweep to kill all the whelps. Alex works by either doing 15damage instantly, or healing you up so you can live one more turn, potentially 2, to get the combo. For shamans I don't know, Bloodlust is a lot more mana for...

    Was watching some chinese hearthstone tournament earlier, koyuki and monk were casting it, it's the games they play inbetween dota2 games. Anyway, was some fairly interesting stuff but the most interesting was an OTK druid. Not like 30hp OTK, even though that's possible too, but some insane...

    Oh it's still about Curi's warlock control deck, didn't read all the posts just skimmed and saw mukla discussion in control decks. In warlock I could see it being ok because you can tap to keep up so might not be as bad. That said, it's 1card for 2cards but you also give them 2 +1/+1 cards...

    You can also access ingame guides for heroes, just pause(default F9) then look up a guide and stuff. For general info yeah that purge guide is pretty good overall, you can also check the dota reddit, on the right side there's a bar with a fuckton of excelent links to a LOT of info. Ignore the...

    Hearthstone

    If you play control, I don't see why you'd bother with a gamble play on turn 3. Just play a harvest golem, or your hero power and pass. You'll win later anyway in almost all cases. If you play against an aggro lock there's a good chance you haven't been clearing enough for him not to kill the...

    Still pretty slow thread compared to EQN reveal. But eh, better complain about people posting things that you do not care about instead of you know, just not reading the thread until there's more info. Especially people talking about what they'd like in the game to be, fuck them people.

    Well RNG is like that sometimes. I complain everytime I get hit with a pyro cause come the fuck on I never get pyro, but at the same time the other day I was playing shaman and I got 4fire elems, 3argent commanders and 2 earth eles(which are epic rarity, so even seeing one doesn't happen often)...

    No he's saying he had 5fireballs in his hand, without Antonidas on the board(which creates fireball cards so it's not surprising in this case).

    Dark Souls 2

    Dark Souls 2 isn't released yet. But since GFWL is soon to be dead, it's unlikely it'll run on it. Most likely steamworks. As for Dark Souls 1, if that's what you meant, yes it still requires GFWL, can make a local account though apparently.

    I've only started to use some program that does image recognition and automatically parses stats, but I'm fairly sure my win rate going second in arena is quite a bit higher than going first. I find it's A LOT harder to get fucked out of a good hand when you go second since you can coin a higher...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Yeah I doubt there's time for Diplomacy, but it was really a great time killer/relaxed activity for when you didn't want to level and shit. Since you play the computer exclusively and it cheats, I don't know how much care needs to go in balancing though, so it wouldn't be as bad as a real CCG...

    Well yeah for quests I don't think you need a quest giver > get quest objective > turn in > get next quest type of setup at all. Quests can be more integrated, you have your little journal thing and it keeps track of various things, you kill a bunch of orcs then after say 20, you find a note on...

    Don't care much how "hardcore" it is or how punishing it is and what type of leveling it uses. Only thing I care about really is, this better have bloodmages/disciples. And real bards. And a real CC focused class. Basically, it better have Vanguard class design. Just with that I'd be willing to...

    Not really, the graphic makes it look like more complicated than it is. You have gathering tradeskills that gather one or more type of ressources(think wow mining which would get both ores and jewels), then you have some type of ressources that are also, or only dropped by mobs(think cloth in...

    Eh, at least it's not "server down until further notice" ^^. Really weird shit though, did they reset internally then reboot to check and it was all broken as fuck so they decided not to reset live? You'd think they would have tested that shit like a while ago since the season end was known for...

    Hearthstone

    Board state early game tends to be irrelevant for control decks, especially druid one. Generally the only 2 drops you'll run are novice engineer, thalnos and ancient watcher+sunfury. Ancient watcher being the only one that'd be more interesting to coin, assuming you also have a sunfury or mark...

    If you were using it before last patch, he was bugged at 25% instead of 50%. Think he's an alright card, definitely not top tier but decent enough in a control/lategame deck if you need some draws. The 4 defense makes him hard to kill right away(especially if you coin it on turn1 and opponent...

    He said minimum number of games played, not ranked games. Obviously you don't need to play ranked games so you can play ranked games, that would make no sense at all. If you play ranked, you won't get someone who had 5 games total played, cause you need whatever amount of games before you can...

    Well not enough spells to kill people with, only Lava Burst and Lightning Bolt hit players I believe so yeah. For spell damage I think it's mostly mage(obviously), rogue with evisc/sinister strike/headcrack and weapons, also synergy on spells cast with auctioneer and mana addict by spamming 0-1...

    1/5 for 1? I like the idea but that means you can't mad bomber/juggler it for a long time. It'd need to have an increased cost too to balance it out, like 2mana.

    Hearthstone

    I think a small nerf to Ice Block would be to simply make it so you lose health while it's active and only prevent you from going under 1. It's a small nerf, but it puts the mage at 1hp which is better than currently where if you only had big mobs you might not be able to finish him next turn...

    You don't autoattack if you're invis/smoked even if you have it on. It's mostly about not attacking someone you see from the fog while they can't see you, as attacking them reveals you and that's not good if you're hiding/ambushing and I guess for laning but that's fairly easy to control. In...

    I've had ok luck with that, only once the warrior had an elven archer on the board and I had 5mobs and his won, rest of the time it "only" wipes everything but one of my mob. Still insanely powerful considering, especially against classes that tend to spawn shitty mobs inbetween the bigger ones...
