    I think that's it. Probably.

    It's not retroactive, though, so you won't receive an email for August. But you will for September.

    @MNC Dover Add this into the OP since it seems that Blizzard is continuing to send these?

    Hey @BreakfastPM @ShadowofVT @emnmnme and @visiblehowl what's up with group D? Has there been any games played yet? Have you all been trying to get games scheduled?

    I had company this weekend and a busy Monday, so nothing on my end. I do have everyone friended in B-net, it's just a matter of finding the time for the games.

    For any of you guys that are listening, I'm available Wednesday and Friday night after 8:30 EST if we want to set something up here.

    Yeah sorry, I was futzing around with decks this weekend and couldn't commit, and then work stuff got in the way yesterday. Should be good to go this afternoon with Breakfast and probably em, and then I'll hook up with Shadow tomorrow or Friday.

    I was spectating and can confirm it was a major pro play. The opponent was not prepared for that, just as I was not prepared to open an Illidan from @MMMig's spectator pack. Thanks dude!

    "MNC Dover" I played emnmnme but I don't think I was supposed to. Playing howl later tonight hopefully.

    Yes, you need to play @emnmnme as well as @ShadowofVT and @visiblehowl. Do you have your scores from your game so I can update the bracket? Nevermind, I got it already and updated the bracket.

    I also updated the OP with the email opt-in information.

    I ended up signing up for Amazon Prime. It's something that I was seriously looking at doing anyways, and this just sort of pushed me over the edge.

    Blizzard's monthly stats for me are a little... weird.

    Win Streak - 7. OK, sure, sounds about right.
    Win rate - 84% against Priest as Hunter. Again, sounds pretty much right. I crushed Priest with Hunter last season.
    Highest Rank - 2. Yep.
    Total wins - 256 in Ranked - Standard. I. . . what? Did I really play that much? I don't think that I did. I'm pretty sure I didn't. But maybe? I dunno.
    Daily Quests - 56. Not a typo. Fifty-six.

    This has to be conflating what I did on NA and on my F2P EU side.

    How is it even possible to do 56 daily quests in a month?

    well like he says, it must be combining his NA and EU stuff

    Hmm, I didn't even realize you could have multiple zone stuff under the same account. But yeah that must be it. That's pretty diligent, I don't think I've ever done even 25 quests in a month, there's always a week when I'm just like "hearthstone? Nah, xcom or whatever"

    so i've been mucking around with this weird DK gul'dan dragon deathrattle deck and having a bit of fun with it:

    #
    # To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone

    i actually started to win a few. i tried to run jaraxxus for a while but cut him because he made me lose. unwilling sacrifice is totally underrated and defile is just such a cool card. if i want to press ahead with this i think i at least need to swap the dread infernals out and craft the 4/5 things, then maybe swap the bane of doom for a fatter demon or another pterodax. gul'dan value has not been great, i wish those dinomancers were demons, but that hero power alone makes grim games winnable.

    Trying to play my DK control Jaina deck for a play 50 mage cards quest. First game, drew her around the middle.

    2nd game? Dead last card in the deck.

    Honestly between that, and the fact that my last 6 games of big priest have had Barnes as the last minion left in the deck, I might stop playing decks with lynchpin cards needed to win

  • SeGaTaiSeGaTai Registered User regular
    Big priest you can at least play your minions turn 9 ish and have a chance.

    Haven't seen a dk jaina deck that has legit other win conditions

    Yeah, when I play my DK Jaina deck, I mulligan pretty hard for it. In a way it's like Reno, in that regardless of the cost you want it in your opening hand.

    Plus your deck is packed with removal and survival spells to get you to those later turns.

    I will say that Big Priest lived up to the hype for me. It combines a lot of what I like best in Hearthstone.
    • Playing control. I hate playing against control, but I love playing control. I love playing the resource rationing game, where I try to decide exactly how I'm going to deal with the threats I'm facing while leaving enough ammo in hand to deal with the next threat.
    • Playing big stuff. I love dropping Barnes into Y'Shaarj, I love the huge Ysera dream card swing, I love plopping The Lich King and hitting end turn.
    • Feeling like I have an opportunity to win almost every game, barring terrible RNG situations.
    • Big crazy fun shenanigans.

    Civics is not a consumer product that you can ignore because you don’t like the options presented.

    Are you running auctioneer or Sprint? I've tried them both and I think Sprint is stronger right now. It is probably a tier 3 deck until nerfs though.

    The logical tiebreaker would be head-to-head, meaning you'd go over SeGaTai as you won the series between you two.

    The fun tiebreaker is asking an independent panel who had meme-ier decks.
