Hearthstone

Btw guys, the mage card faceless summoner is amazing.

bran + twin emps is pretty great. 3 4-6 taunts and a 2-4 ain't bad.

Just popped a few when I got in. 3 for 53 (shifter, rag, deathwing) which is not too bad I guess. Kinda glad I got a shifter in there as I'd never craft it but might try to fuck around with it since it's here.

I've still got plenty of dust to craft what I need and ample old legendaries and goldens that I've literally never played if I really want something that badly.

Running C'thun Brann druid. Pretty much unstoppable. Went 13-0

Just have to wait for people to catch up, and counter that meta, but right now it's one of the best decks for sure.

Also i think they changed the RNG on the packs , or I got lucky this time.

Only went through 179 packs to get everything except for one legendary which I crafted.

66 packs ... 1 Boogeymonster .. 2 (!) Golden Huhuran .. well shit.

call of the wild is..................everything everyone imagined it would be lol. I just dropped 2 of them on a guy turn 8 and 9 and he got obliterated.

Oh ya and infest is awesome. Basically gives hunter some card draw that they usually don't have.

Went ahead and crafted a Vek'Lor for my C'thun decks yesterday, don't regret it one bit. I think it's probably the safest use of your dust this early into an expansion. It's being rated as the #1 card in the expansion already over at this thread:

I got to play it with a Brann today in my Druid C'thun deck, and it's just completely ridiculous.

I dunno about that list. So far C'thun decks don't seem that strong. Also if I had to pick the strongest C'thun minion it'd be that 3 mana deal 2 damage one and they don't even have it on the list.

Fandral is fun, but top tier? No way.

I'm dominating with zoolock. Darkshire Counsellors are OP as fuck and there are barely any warlocks on standard. The deck isn't even optimized.

Can you send or post a decklist for your zoo, I enjoy the fast pace of zoo more than reno. Nevermind I just fit those counsellors into my patro zoo lock and what a difference lol. 4-0 so far.

I haven't been impressed with C'Thun decks in general. Druid C'Thun has no draw and is way too inconsistent. Priest doesn't work without Lightbomb. The only good one is Warrior but that's because of their ridiculous card draw, not C'Thun. C'Thun just makes sure you can't lose to fatigue after drawing 15 extra cards through acolyte/ravaging ghoul/battle rage shenanigans.

Call the Wild is worse than Dr. Boom. This is the best card in the set and it's totally broken. It makes MC and Dr. Boom look balanced and you basically insta-win when you cast it against basically any board position. Huffer kills their best minion and you get a 5/4 taunt left behind so they can't attack back for the kill? Ridiculous.

Anyone here going to participate in the Hearthsone Grand Prix at Dreamhack Austin? I will be there and participating in it. I do not expect to get past the first round, but I figured it would be a cool experience...

I have to submit 4 decks by the 3rd of May, and with the new xpac it should be interesting to come up with them.

The best C'Thun decks are really regular decks that splash in a few of the strongest C'Thun cards and use him as a late game power play. So Control Warrior C'Thun seems ok (only putting in like 4-5 different cards), C'Thun Druid is probably fine (be curious what your deck looks like Column).

I've only messed with C'Thun War and Evolve Shaman so far last night. I couldn't get a good list going in Evolve, I think I was going too aggro and it needs to be more mid-range. My War'Thun deck did great even if I was using more C'Thun buffers than most of the "good" decks (had the 2 drops, one of the Elders + the 2 Disciples, and one of the taunters because only opened one so far). I had Brann in there too because damn near every minion had battlecry but never did anything really cool with it.

I theorycrafted a bunch of other decks to try out. Need to get the 7-win quest done and then can see if I need to open more packs.

Edit: I did see a weird amount of normal decks last night, 3 Zoolocks and a dragon priest out of 8 games I think.

I was pretty skeptical of this expansion the last few weeks leading up. First impression, I was wrong. Yesterday was the funnest day I have ever had playing Hearthstone.

Opened 69 (yeah baby) packs, from the free ones and bought the rest with saved up gold. Only ended up with 2 legends, N'zoth and Herald Volazj. I made a nasty Rogue Deathrattle N'zoth deck that is incredibly fun.
