    I made my dad legend climb right before the expansion hit. I ended up succumbing to all the Beast Hunters I kept running into that would seemingly wreck me every time while trying to climb with Aggro Druid and spent about 5k dust crafting in order to play it myself (I skipped Ichman because I was spending enough dust already and he didn't really seem crucial).

    Beast Hunter has like a 60% win rate in all regions right now. Its very oppressive

    Good. I'm currently rocking Dragon Steal Priest and it's great against it.

    Wanna try my Mario Maker levels?

    I just noticed this. Kurtrus has been around for a long time, so I wonder how long that text has been wrong...

    Dad legend is Diamond 5 and isn't really connected to dad bods beyond the word dad.

  • DibbyDibby I'll do my best! Registered User regular
    It's Dad Legend because actual Legend is super sweaty tryhard mode and takes too much effort

    And Diamond 5 gives the best end-of-month rewards outside of hitting Legend (and Legend's rewards are only a slight hair above Diamond 5), so it's Good Enough and is basically the de-facto place to stop grinding

    So it's like, yknow. If you're just playing casually and aren't super sweaty because you've got Life and Stuff, you can join all the other hard working Dads at Dad Legend

    Congrats, you're a Dad now. Here's your grill, your lawnmower, and a Certified Book of Dad Jokes.

    I haven't paid attention to Hearthstone for weeks (maybe a couple of months, even), and I logged in yesterday to get the new mini-set. The first thing I noticed were the Runestones; guess they finally added a premium currency, huh? In a way, it's impressive that they held out for so long!

  • fortyforty Registered User regular
    There was always a premium currency, it just happened to be U.S. dollars or the currency of your region.

    True in one sense, but the point of a premium currency is to put a layer of indirection between you and your money, because humans are very bad about thinking through those layers of separation, and the more layers there are between humans and actual hard cash, the more likely they are to spend it willy-nilly.

    Hit legend for the first time this morning! Even totem shaman in wild is a hell of a deck. It's always bothered me that I've played Hearthstone on and off since beta and never made legend, so this feels nice. And I wasn't sure I'd be able to take a run at legend this month, because covid knocked me out for a while there, so extra-nice.

    ... And tomorrow I get to do this all over again!

  • fortyforty Registered User regular
    The amount of stall a Renethal mage has at this point, even with the Sanctum nerf, is fucking absurd. Might as well auto-concede if you're playing a minion based deck.

  • reVersereVerse Attack and Dethrone God Registered User regular
    This was a fun game. Better not send any novice adventurers to deal with those rats, they'll go berserk and nuke Stormwind.

    This has been doing some nice work today. I finally broke down and crafted the Countess and regret nothing.

    Sure, it's a little RNG, but 0-cost Najaks to yank Mountain Bears out of the way and on your side are a fantastic seasonal gift, so remember to reserve yours with our staff at reception.

    Bridge + Order in the Court on 6 is usually a free 7/7 Taunt with another on the way next turn and then Cariel curves right in.

    Its her golden buddy. You can get the buddy quest if all heroes in the lobby have a buddy existing (and even then it's rare)

    I've never hit legend, probably because I'm not very good, but I also don't spend a ton of time with this game and grind is not really worth the card back to me. I did get this milestone last week though.

    Patch Notes are up

    Theotar to 5-mana
    Stag Spirit goes to 4/3 (loses1/1)
    Bear Spirit goes to 2/4 (loses 0/1)
    Harpoon Gun reduces a Beast by 2 instead of 3

    Funny enough that allows Theo to be used with Vanndar. Theo is still gonna be used everywhere.

    This knocks Hunter down a peg or two but it will still be good.

  • fortyforty Registered User regular
    I feel like Mage or Warlock will probably be top dog with these nerfs. They were already strong contenders only slightly beaten out by Hunter's overall power and consistency, and only the Renethal variant of Spooky Mage tended to play Theotar so the slight tempo hit to Theo barely touches them.

    I don't see this changing hunter much, who just spam the board with shit over and over again.

    It does stop the Gun-on-3, Mountain Bear-on-4 move.

    I think forty has the right idea - Mage is going to bump up with the changes.

    It's not gonna nuke Hunter like they did Control Warrior a while back, but I think the aggregate effect of it all will shave its win% enough that it won't be the "best" deck like it is now.

    I wouldn’t have minded a nerf to tavish, I really hate getting super counterspelled, boardwipe’d and/or pyroblasted for 6 mana.

    The other day a Paladin dropped the Jailer into my Objection! and honestly I felt guilty about it.

    The best part of every expansion is after I've hit level 100 and don't have to keep going back to the track to click rewards.
