    But I am back at over 4k in dust I just find it sad I have not bought classic cards just did the brawl for them and yet I keep getting repeats

    It is maddening how quickly every classic pack becomes 40 dust despite missing huuuuge portions of the set, including commons.
    To this day, hundreds of packs later, I still have gotten 0 Upgrades or Feral Spirits.

    Edit: One of my most recent classic packs actually finally gave me a second of one of the occasionally useful rares. I think it was a Violet Teacher?

    Now you'll only get those in the next few packs.

    The problem with Kingsbane Rogue is that it dies to anything that can provide any sort of pressure before turn five or so. It’s generally an outright terrible deck in Standard. It just gets punched in the face a lot and then dies horribly. It needs to go up against a steady diet of control decks to be successful - useful in high Legend metas, but useless while ranking up.

    But: in Wild, everyone is playing control.

    4-0-1 so far with Wild Kingsbane (I threw the mirror match and burned my Kingsbane, but I forced a draw anyways).

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

    having to run mediocre cards like cutthroat buccaneer as weapon buffs sure do limit the power level of kingsbane in standard a whole bunch

    I'm pretty sure I'm like 1-200 against Kingsbane Rogue overall.

    I have opinions about it.

    I switched from my version of Even Pally to the one from the VS breakdown for three games today (minus one Wrath, Thalnos, and Black Knight / add Argent Protector, Lich King, Dinosize). I like the adjustment from Pyromancers to Knife Jugglers - feels a little cleaner.
    AAECAZ8FCIoH/geWCarBArnBAsLOArfpAs30Agv7AZkC3APyBfQFlgbPBq8HsQibywLq5gIA

    Of the quick 3-0 stint that pushed me to Rank 15, my bestest friend in the world Dinosize won me two of them - one when I needed to immediately whittle down an 18/18 monstrosity from a Priest player and one when an 8-health Rogue chose to leave one Silver Hand on the board against their four minions instead of killing it.

    Between six games in casual and thirteen on the ladder running these two decks, Even Paladin is 16-3.

    As an aside, I think my 3clipse card would totally be playable. Well...okay, maybe not, but it would still be cool to see get made.

    Go for max greed value, by dropping x4 copies then Youthful Brewmastering the first one. Yeah, that's actually a really bad play. :)

    So I think I may be in love with Silver Sword, especially in arena, and especially if I play it on T8 and play 3 Echo Taunt guys on T9. Apparently this makes people concede.

    Well, it's (generally) better than the similar Ravasaur Runt and Pterrordax Hatchling. I think it'd be a very solid arena pick, if nothing else.

    Edit: Maybe playable in a token or zoo deck.

    I have opinions about it.

    If you’re playing slow control decks, that’s exactly what Kingsbane targets, and it totally eats their faces.

    If you’re playing aggro, go face harder! Kingsbane is like “Oh no, not my face, I need that.” And then it cries in a corner.

    Matchups are decidedly polarized.

    Yeah I always hear this advice and you know what? Kingsbane Rogue has cards that royally fuck over Aggro, and I always see them. Did I put out a minion? That's neat, it's dead now, and I've lost the board advantage at the same time. Did I go wide? Cool, we're going to play a combination of cards that ignores the normal costs for mana and dump your whole board back to your hand while we keep building our board out.

    In the meantime their Kingsbane is just charging up and I haven't gotten a minion to stick for the past 6 turns and the game is already over for me.

    You spend 8 turns playing a sub par deck and then you play Frost Lich Jaina on nine and you win because its a broke as fuck card.
    Two guesses which Legendary I opened today and then laughed until I stopped.

    I just got run over by the luckiest jerk in the arena

    First, they had an activated Prince Keleseth, that they coined out on the first turn

    Then, I finally started to get some board presence. I had a Temporal Anomaly, a River Crocolisk, a Glacial Shard, and an activated Hooked Horror with Demonfire

    Guess which one their Mind Control Tech took?

    Dusted a bunch of golden cards and crafted Jaina after losing with a Kingsbane Rogue deck I found online. I honestly feel like I haven't won a game at all this month. I mean, I have, but I'm damn rank 19-20 and I never hover here. I feel like I'm just out of it or something. I have tons of good cards and just can't get a streak going. I just looked and I have all death knights except Paladin and Hunter.

    Question. I came back after not playing for a while for the gold card pack.

    Which I missed by a day.

    But they gave me all kinds of quests that were easy to get packs, so I guess it's ok. But then!

    I saw I had an arena still open from last time I played it. It was one win and one loss. It made me finish it :(

    Then I got 30 gold and a pack as rewards!

    Then I got no rewards actually added to my account? Did get a ticket to a fresh arena.

    Is this normal?

    Either Dragonfire Ammo pops twice in the two first picks or you're waiting for the inevitable.

    Forced ends of runs autoadd the dust, pack and gold. You probably opened the pack thinking it came from somewhere else.

    They really should be more clear about this, esp since they run the reward screen when you go to arena after a forced end.

    Would it have added it to my account before I went to look at arena? If so, I would think I did get it, as I did have a pack when I logged on of the variety I won. When I checked on it, I definitely had 0 packs to open, and definitely had the same gold I did after.

    Yes thats what i'm saying.

    It expires in the background and when you log in the rewards are already in their respective banks.

    Then you go to arena and it will tell you got some rewards but you will not see any change in the banks.
