Personality and branding trumps skill or looks on twitch that is for sure. Hafu doesn't look like a troll, has a personality, has earned the 20,000 gold cap through arenas, and placed top 16 legendary last season so there is a reason she gets so many viewers and so many more viewers than...

Damn, that weapon is pretty sick for warrior.

I'm pretty sure we all got that part. Thanks, captain obvious. Our point is it isn't any different from any other ccg. Edit - Well that was the point until column started comparing hearthstone to fighting games and monopoly.

There are probably hundreds of people streaming hearthstone right now and most of them don't have any viewers because they blow. 2% is a lot of people in the sense that there are over 10 million hearthstone accounts, yes; but you don't just luck your way into the top 2%. In the case of...

Even if they were "popular" due to mtg do you think people watch them because they were mtg famous? Kolento, was he a mtg player? I honestly don't know, would anyone give a fuck? People watch him because he reached #1 legend on both na and eu at the same time. Savj, was he a mtg player...

Even in open tournaments a lot of those popular streamers do well though, some of them thats how they became popular in the first place.

Just because reynad's zoo deck has ~24 of the same cards from curi's board control warlock doesn't mean it isn't a new and entirely different deck. I mean while the card pool is still so small just about every deck is the same ~24 cards with different flavors for different metas.

There is nothing more satisfying than beating a deck you are at a disadvantage against and there is nothing more infuriating than losing to a deck you are favored against, but you didn't draw a single one of 7 taunt cards or 3 heals and only 14 cards are left.

I took it as he went from lvl 1-52 on priest? New account? or really lvl 10-52, or I have no idea what he's talking about either.

I've never seen control warrior not run faceless, but yeah, it just adds to the control warrior is expensive. Right now you want to run Harrison because of miracle rogue and mirror match-ups, other times you'll want to run cairne, brawl isn't in deck lists now because control is on the rise...

Speaking of warrior, I guess a popular streamer has been streaming it today, I log in and 3/3 control warriors.

While reynad made aggro warrior a thing, and it does alright, obviously due to the nature of their hero power they are better at control. I wouldn't necessarily say they are as slow as priests because with the right hand they will just steamroll their opponent rather than sitting back waiting...

I had an uth, but figured it was only 35 dust difference. I really think they needed to do something with the way buzzard and uth interact, but this is better than nothing I suppose.

Trading would not solve the issue, especially if you don't want to use something like d2jsp. D2 had open trading and in the hundreds/thousand hours I played that game I think I had one successful trade and it was trading 40 perfect skulls for a duped split or skull loom bow, whatever it was...

I'm not advocating this, but would it really be game breaking if you could exchange say 500 forgotten souls for any one targeted item you want? It may not even roll good stats. I fail to see how people would "run out of content" when you're dangling that carrot a mile away, but at least people...

It could be that they want to lvl that class or have a quest for that class. I know thats why I sometimes play shitty arena classes.

I dunno, its often times close, but they usually run out of steam first, I can remember 1 of the few games I lost against it my opponent had a perfect curve, played doomguard turn 5 with an empty hand and doomguarded again turn 7.

If you're seeing a lot of zoo use watcher druid, I just went 5/5 straight against zoos and I although I don't keep track I'd say I'm probably around 10/12 overall in the matchup. Right now I'm using: Druid - Deckbuilder - HearthPwn Edit - 6/6

Personally I wouldn't give a shit so long as they are advertising it like that "tx rg, 1 spot, req inv, you open". If it was something like blah, blah, blah, last one in opens and I join and there are 3 people in a clan together then I would be mildly annoyed.

Miracle rogue was prevalent last season, but I'm guessing we're seeing a lot more of it this season because liquidhearth posted what the top 16 ppl used to get to legendary last season and like 10/16 were miracle rogue. I played the malygos version a few times and it feels like I need to play...

Wow, it even came with a socket and max cdr roll, congrats on jumping 2-3 tiers in torment difficulty.

According to blizzard, only between 6 to infinity hours.

I'd personally swap out archon for teleport unless it really takes you too long to kill shit. Black hole provides a lot of damage and utility holding mobs in place for meteors and out of melee range of you. I'm building cdr where I can so I'm gtg if I ever get a wand of woh, so teleport and...

I think they absolutely could buff legendary drop rates another 100% or at least give a chance for forgotten souls to drop off elites not affected by legendary timer because I have 3 or 4 items I've been trying to reroll on my main, but I'm out of souls. Thats also not even trying to improve...

Yeah, I saw that, actually I already have hearthstone on multiple pc's and I can use the wife's account, just need to get around to doing it.

I need to get up on that fireside card back, I think its the best looking one.

Well if you're running mm+meteor, rift bosses are where conflagrate shines from what I understand, the more hp a mob has the more the dot burns over time, the dot ticks for like 80million by the time the guardian is dead.

Well they definitely will be nice for a fresh 70 dh, but right now you'll either want magefist for ca:lfb dh or tasker and theo for physical/zoo dh. They are good in that they at least rolled crit damage and that 4 set is AMAZING, but they would be a placeholder for one of the two gloves I...

Thats one of the theories, it does seem there is rested magic find. Not that loot will rain down on you, but you should find your first legendary extremely quickly.

What was the guys theory on the loot table thing? What if the loot table changes after x amount of time? Because how often is it that you get one legendary and then another one right after? Its happened to me several times, its how I got 2 unitys, 2 litanys back to back twice, 2 raven bows, 2...

I took almost the full 90s on a turn 5 last night and don't even feel bad. Played frothing berserker, coin, wild pyromancer, slam to clear his x/3 and x/1 board while leaving me with the 3/1 pyro and 7/3 berserker, wanted to make sure I played them in the correct order to not kill my...

Holy shit, I got my first marauder's piece sunday, it is confirmed.

And the ip address of the game you create has to end in an odd number.

There are a lot worse things to watch on twitch that I don't understand.

So is the game back up? Is there really no patch again this week? I was really hoping they'd fucking fix +% damage on weapons with elemental damage already.

Well from mobs/chest you still have the off-chance of getting off class loot. Kadala is different though, legendaries you gamble from her will 100% be useable by that class. I got a blade of prophecy while playing my dh, I never in infinite shards could gamble a blade of prophecy from kadala...

Hmmm...the shit with kadala has me wondering. I gambled ~800 shards before I got my cindercoat and I got 5-6 other legendaries on the way. I've gambled ~4000 shards on two-handed weapons and gotten a grand total 1 legendary, granted 1-handers cost 3x as much as chests, but I've gambled more...

"Poopsocking", chest runs, and/or unattended macroing.

Right, which is why I at first said it is basically homing. Homing, locking onto targets, whatever you want to call it, its basically the same thing as I don't think I've ever seen a grenade miss. Thats why I think I'm going to do two different sets, one for face rolling content and one for...

Yeah, I wanted to make sure I wasn't going crazy so I double checked when I got home and shit is definitely homing and this thing can and will home onto targets like 30 yards away as soon as you're in range and it'll home onto destructibles when not enough mobs are around so it really makes me...
