There was a lot of concern about relative class balance during the alpha/beta stage and how that would impact tournaments. A good portion of the early HS folks were SC2 folks and the knockout style mirrors Team SC2 tourneys. Bans started getting added to events later. I would prefer single decks as well but I think we'd need a bigger card pool before it would deliver tournies with some variation.I haven't seen many so maybe I am wrong but every time I see a Hearthstone tournament why is it following a DOTA style multiple decks/heroes and bans with knockout pairings, rather than the MTG style single deck with swiss pairings?
One of those is a successful card game right and probably know their shit about tournaments by now... it kills my desire to get interested with the chaos and having to have multiple good(expensive) decks.
Poor guy used a SWP on a Voidcaller early on only to summon a Doomguard which he then used a SWD to kill. Then, much later, he Thoughtstole his own Doomguard and hard casted it which caused him to discard his second SWD. He smashed my face for a bunch of damage that turn. Then I played two 0-mana Molten Giants, Defender of Argus'd them both and then Faceless'd one of them for three 9/9 Taunts in one turn. I'm actually surprised he didn't concede right then. That goofy 15/15 Void Terror is just for show really, the game was over when I had 3 9/9's and he had no more SWDs.SWD, SWD, Concede
Uh oh, the fun police are here.Bragging about beating a priest at rank 15, really?
Better watch out! It's only legitimte fun if you're elite.Uh oh, the fun police are here.
You need a way to deal with the spawns. So either taunt givers, ways to give them attack so you can trade them off, or so much damage you can just win the race. Warriors with weapons can do that last one with the right draws. Druid, Paladin, and Priest can just outlast. Shaman with Flametongues and etc works really well to. Freeze Mage and Hunter can both win the damage race, as well. Warlock and Rogue would be tough.Can someone for the love of our Lord on the cross tell me how to beat Gothik
