Choose Paladin.Ant tips for the areana. I'm going to give it a go for the first time.
Yep. In an environment where creatures are harder to clear than ever...give one class both ramp and a shitty combo that usually deals 20+ in this environment. Let's say the combo should be able to fly on Turn 8 why don't we? Great deck to play against...salt is real.Nothing more fun than allowing your Druid opponent one turn with a minion then he rattles off 20+ damage in one turn, then just does it again the next. So fucking irritating. Real interactive stuff.
Hearth Arena - Beyond the tierlistAnt tips for the areana. I'm going to give it a go for the first time.
Arena isn't easy. I like it even though I usually suck at it. There's just so many times you get fucked by your draft, or your draw, or your opponents draw, or just rarity issues, like your opponent having a legendary that you just can't recover from. The power creep level has really seemed to exacerbate the luck factors at play to me, but at least its also made a wider range of classes more viable. It used to be pretty much mage/paladin or GTFO. As you saw that's largely still the case but not as rigidly as before.Well that wasn't all that much fun. 2 wins in my 3 losses. Felt I had a decent deck. Everyone I was matched up against was a mage or paladin (2 of them). Got the 2 wins against the 2 paladins.
I've had some bad streaks lately, especially while drinking, but I'm still getting a 7 - 10 win run in every day (out of 2 or 3 drafts). One thing I have been noticing is more legendaries. I'm getting more than usual and am facing more than usual. Had a Dr. Boom in a rogue draft last night. Over the course of 3 drafts I saw him played by my opponents 3 times. Small sample size, I know, but it seemed really odd.Kripp's guess is that all the average players and casuals are hoarding gold for the new set rather than play arena so the only people left playing arena are killers.
This. I absolutely love drafting MTG and I think arena is just complete garbage. I don't care how good or bad you are at it, I don't understand the fascination.I haven't really played Arena in a while either. It's all I played for the first year or so that I played the game until I built up enough of a collection to make legit ladder decks.
