I think it's an interesting find that suggests Blizzard is beginning to shift Hearthstone into an environment that makes it more newbie-friendly. Which, personally, I think is awesome. I want to be told at the end of the season I'm in the top 2% of players instead of the top 8%. ::)

In seriousness, new players with different outlooks on the game (how it should be played...metas, etc.) is a very vital thing for Hearthstone moving forward, and since it's made so much money already (enough to give like $1mil in a single world tournament without cutting into budget, earnings, and staff payments), we can say for certain Blizzard is going to keep it afloat. They're not a company that likes to see their games go under, after World of Warcraft continues to be labelled as dying/dead.

That was always their goal. Listening to many Ben Brode interviews shows this. He always says that he doesn't want to confuse new players. I think the competitive scene got too big too quick for Blizzard to do anything but endorse it. Look at the vast amount RNG. RNG is not good for competitive things.

Someone beat Mechazod with me. I need someone to play mage and actually get good combos with Troggzor + Millhouse. Every mage I play with fucking suuuucks.

13-3 with my OTK Murlocadin. I went in thinking a lot would have to change and I'm pleasantly surprised, so far it's been very good to me.

Neither was it for me whenever I lost yesterday. But 13-3 or whatever it is, I think that's even better than my Renopally.

PS this guy's deck was crazy and bullshit but still lost, now im 16-3, its not perfect but its doing good so far



also does anyone realize how lucky you have to be with draw order to win using only these cards

I never fully understood Mimiron's Head's ability. I thought it read something like "If you have 4 other mechs," not "if you have 3 mechs." This means all you need is two other mechs. And, as the video shows, it ignores stuff like Freeze mage's big board clear combo with Doomsayer + Frost Nova. Of course, it will destroy ALL of your mechs, so flooding for a higher chance to proc is just that and nothing more.
