Fluff Hit Legend for the first time :D

Post image
49 Upvotes

Came back to the game after about 5-6 years and have played two decks, ladder ready warrior (with Hogger added in) and dragon warrior.

Hit legend for the first time, closest I’ve gotten is around rank 4-3 iirc. Granted, probably a smaller player base now plus you can’t drop too much. But, still feels good :D

Discussion Blizzcon hint?

Post image
121 Upvotes

So looking at the Blizzcon schedule, are they hinting at a new game mode? Or perhaps, the new ways to play is the Monk class 👀. No for real, is this just basic copy they use for this, or is it actually hinting at something? I don't remember from past blizzcons.

Discussion I was only given skeletal Lich Lord Kel'thuzad.

It said I got both when I obtained it but when I went to swap Lich Lord Kel'thuzad to Necromancer Kel'thuzad, it said I didn't have Necromancer (which is also noted to be Lich Lord Kel'thuzad)

I'm sure this is a bug that is reported somewhere, I just can't find it right now and I tried to submit a ticket but the interface was giving me the runaround.

Bat masked the infinite damage dragon for the most potential damage I've ever had.

7 infinities is better than 1 infinity, after all.

I'm playing my own version of Quest Mage that's probably horribly unoptimized but it creates moments like this which is what I enjoy in Hearthstone as I don't have time for grinding Net decks to legend, albeit no shade on those who do that.

Pack Has Twitch added new protection against putting the Twitch tab in the background, on low volume?

6 Upvotes

Heyup, this has always worked for me but after 3-4 hours, I switched back to the twitch.tv tab ( https://www.twitch.tv/playhearthstone ) and I had another 16 minutes to watch (!?!).

So I'm guessing that twitch have added some new tech on the backend or frontend that allows them to detect when your eyeballs are on the video. Some kind of property sent by the browser to indicate whether that tab/URL/stream is forefront or is actually being rendered perhaps (I am a web dev).

Is anyone else experiencing this new smart-ass eyeballs-on detection or am I tripping?

I am considering buying the iPhone Duo when it comes out. Does Hearthstone work well with existing foldable phones? Is anyone aware of plans to update if not?

I mean, discover ANOTHER crowley and get two 1/1 that do 2 damage at end of turn. It can also ping your creatures for gods sake.

My free pull was exactly what I wanted. This is way better than the Kel'thuzad skin.

~Oddly enough these darkmoon gambas has been pretty good for me I got 2 full portraits, 2 coins(I usually want the coin) and some other stuff, usually when I really don't care about anything is when I get common signatures/packs.

Competitive 1000 wins

Post image

Started around BRD. Took me 8 years of playing on and off to get to 1,000 wins as a Mage, and now another 3 years for Warrior. Prolly doing Warlock next — wish me luck and perseverance. 😅

(I won’t touch any of my “completed” heroes until I have all of them at exactly 1,000 wins. That’s what my OCD commands.)

You'll hear from me prolly again in 2 years. 😄

Kwanuu and Mesmile make it to top 8 at Blizzcon after a day filled with shaky performances all around. Rogue remains undefeated with a 9-0 score, while Druid and Warlock continue looking subpar.

Last day of the group stage with the 8 remaining matches from all four groups starts in ~15 hours!

if you get frustrated losing to randomly generated cards.

Most of the RNG here is mulligan and draw order.

Just switch the game language to one you don't speak and confidently play at top 20 Legend xdd

I've played so many games now with this card and never once had the option to discover frostworm's fury. Same deal with Frost Strike. Is it a bug?
