    So it appears that the desktop version was patched, but there is no corresponding ipad/iphone patch out. Booo.

    Oh good, they had said they weren't sure that max rank tracking would be in for this season but that seems to have come along with 3.0.

    It's pretty standard for iOS patches to go up later in the day since they have to go through the store approval process.

    Made it to rank 8 with my ok-ish pally deck. I suppose I should put something more competitive together to try and push that a bit further.

    It's actually been pretty great playing at lower ranks now. As someone who just plays right now to complete quests and no more (no time!) I am seeing a much larger percentage of people at rank 17-ish that seem to be new (judging by their card selection and play choices), and much less of the golden portraited with legendary players... meaning anecdotally at least people are feeling more motivated to climb to the rank that matches their skill level, rather than doing things like conceding down to rank 20 and feeding on the newer players.

    If true, that's actually a really good thing!

    Eck. "Patch 3.0.0"...and it's not the Grand Tournament launch patch.

    At least we'll get to taste a lil' bit of how the card interactions work with the brawl. Inspire though is probably going to blow Joust out of the water.

    Technically it might be the launch patch. I wouldn't be surprised if the TGT release wasn't purely a backend/data patch.

    It would be neat to see the actual win/loss rates of the two decks. They don't release them, do they?

    I'm like 99% sure this is TGT patch. They just have to flip a switch to unlock the pack purchasing on the backend.

    That makes way more sense than trying to co-ordinate a patch rollout across a half-dozen platforms on the one day of release.

    The new board is in the game. Not as cool as the BRM board.

    I've already purchased the packs, what I want them to unlock is the pack *opening*. ;-)

    Well, this mirror match against Grim Patron Warrior is going well.

    I have 28 health and 27 armour and he just burned a grim patron by having 10 cards in his hand due to a foolish Acolyte of Pain drop the turn prior.

    Bwahaha.

    Edit: Just finished, final total: 28 health and 35 armour.

    I had a game as face hunter against a patron warrior last night

    dude said MY THANKS after I dropped what was obviously explosive trap and I'm like "yeah okay bud"

    so he put down his frothing and made a bunch of patrons and yadda yadda yadda my second explosive trap killed his frothing before it got a chance to attack and put him in range of owl+kill command+steady shot

    nothing feels better than beating some BM schmuck with zero bullshit

    How did you put down two explosive traps? I thought you could only put down an identical secret if it was done via a mad scientist or something like that.

    I'm not arguing that it was fair, I'm just saying that even in that situation Trump had a way to play that could've won the game, failed to do that, and was punished for it. Too much of the narrative surrounding Patron consists of "well, there was nothing I/they could do" when it's objectively false.

    eh, he could have rolled dice vs. believing he was safe. it's not like he straight up missed lethal.

    then if he goes for that and loses it looks like he only lost because he played boom onto the board which would have made people maybe not realized that yes patron can do 50 from hand on an empty board.

    luckily as soon as I saw the post of mmmig complaining about the thread title I assumed that was the case or I'd bebummed.

    I have windrunner and that's about it for the top tier list. Was thinking of trying Grim Paton out but I have a feeling we'll see some nerfs coming for that combo with TGT. I'm not sure.

    It's worth noting that Grim Patron uses zero epics and the only legendary is from the adventures, so you could play that deck right now.

    Patron is often run legendless otuside of adventure legends so not much you'd need to craft for that anyway.

    Nothing revealed has looked like it would displace Boom or Ragnaros so those would be the safest bets for crafting.

    Yeah, it's sadly pretty boring. The upper right corner in particularly is lackluster. A huge amount of the real estate there is taken up by the tent, which doesn't appear to have any interactions aside from the weather vane spinning and the door flap.

    Maybe there are some hidden things I haven't found, though.

    I almost prefer that to when I truly don't know what the right play was. no matter the outcome I end up feeling uncomfortable about the game.

    Urk, I had 4 patrons on the board vs. this priest but they didn't stick, now I'm 6 cards from the bottom of my deck and I haven't drawn the second one. I've got all the combo pieces ready to go, Mr. T in my hand. COME ONNNNN

    Edit: 5th from bottom card of my deck. OTK. Game over.

    Sigh, this deck is definitely OP to pull off that bullshit, but that Priest should've pushed me harder when I obviously didn't have the card draw.
