guess I was just tired yesterday, the voices are still annoying but not so much anymore.

goodbyes are a sad part of life but for every end there's a new beggining so one must never stop looking forward to the next dawn

Right now I am enjoying the mage deck. I might try a druid later on or when I have time to build one. What is everyone else playing?

@Tasuki: I playing random to be honest. I haven't unlock the Druid or other heroes yet. I unlocked them by playing online and I don't even bother with practice mode.

Umm… Care to have some gravy?

I'm interested in playing some competitive matches, if anyone else wants to. #2686 is my Battletag, so feel free to add me. :3
In terms of how fun I find the classes to play: Shaman>Warrior>Paladin>Priest>Mage>Warlock>Druid>Rogue.
Mage is a good choice for early game laddering since a lot of its good cards are basic or common.

I am AdamJrSr#1580. I mostly play Arena, but I am going to start using gold on packs instead so I can someday get a golden Shaman and Druid. My horribly generic decks are not letting move up ranked too fast right now. Like in a lot of card games, the legendary rarity cards are too hard to counter with the common stuff.

I play Arena most of the time as well. The deck building aspect with limitless opportunities is just more exciting. I got my first 12 win arena run on a Mage deck with 5 mirror images.

I haven't even come close to a 12-win run. Drafting is something I do well in card games, but not in Hearthstone, it seems. I tend to do average.

5 Mirror Images is just silly! I am not sure I would want nearly so many.

@Adam You still playing? I've been addicted to this game for months, haha. I hate arena though, I've played it several times and have never even managed 1 win.

Ranked mode has been much more fun for me - I got up to rank 14 last month. Paladin is the best!

I stopped playing for a long while. Recently I've played a little bit every now and then, trying to get back into it. I haven't been playing Arena but mostly because I want to save my gold for the expansion stuff. I am pretty sure I never got close to that high in ranked, but it hasn't been a huge priority. The 500 ranked wins for a shiny Shaman would be lovely, but I don't expect to reach that goal. Still a very fun game with lots of color.

Also, unrelated, I downloaded your game a month or two ago. It is fun. I play it whenever I am on the toilet. So know that when I am in the bathroom, I'm thinking of you.

I'm still playing regularly; looking forward to the expansion. @pixelman Rank 14 also seems to be my limit at the moment with Ranked Play. What's your Battletag, seeing as our decks are apparently at the same level?

Ahh ok. For some reason Shaman doesn't seem to be doing very well in ranked play right now, I can beat them pretty regularly. Let me know if you want to play a game some time!

I think I'm going to cry.

Haha.

That is unfortunate. He has the most interesting hero power. I also like Druid thematically but aside from getting to play huge creatures I don't find he has much interesting going on. I read he is really good, not sure if that is still true. I don't have s huge collection since I don't pay real money for more cards and used all my gold in arena, so my decks aren't particularly great or diverse.

I might have posted my name in here before. If not I will try to remember to check back tonight. I have not been in the habit of web surfing at home lately so I could well forget. I only checked on my phone today since calling me out by name sends an email notification now.

Yeah, I used to play as him pretty well starting out, but for some reason he's kinda dropped off the radar recently. That spell that summons two 2/3 taunts is really annoying though. Druid seems to do better but I can't get the hang of playing as him either, for whatever reason.

Warlock has been insanely popular over the past couple weeks. There's this rush-style deck that you can win with in as few as 4 turns (I've done that before, actually). I encounter Hunters and Priests pretty frequently too.

Paladin is my favorite to play as (and against) since he has the least annoying spells of anyone, yet they're all still pretty effective. I also have the Tirion legendary, which makes it even more fun.

I always spend my gold on card packs. Opening them is too much fun!

I hated Paladin at first because Divine Shield was the most annoying mechanic to me. It still is something that can occasionally frustrate, but I've learned to deal with not being amazing at just this one game.

I like Arena because it puts everyone on the same playing field. No one has collection advantage. I just wish you could keep your cards like you can in other games. Particularly because I got that robot in my very first draft that bounces back to your hand and lets you play a free random creature from your hand. So much fun.

Alright I've added you both. (Geonjaha#2686)
Shaman is still my favourite class to play, despite being a bit underpowered and risky. It, alongside my Paladin deck are probably the best I use for Ranked Play. Luckily the new cards planned for each class look like they'll add some good options. The warrior card will go well with my enrage deck.

Nice, that looks like a good one. I enjoy playing Warrior (and all the heroes), but I have played nothing but Shaman recently. I like the guy who gives it to any other minion. They make it so satisfying to click and drag one huge minion to attack twice in a row with that big impact sound and gasp from the audience. Windfury is probably my favorite mechanic.

I heard once upon a time they plan to make alternate heroes within each hero class. I hope they experiment with new hero powers, perhaps at a different cost even, instead of just new skins/names — which would be cool, too, but I enjoy games with huge variety, even at the cost of balance.

Shaman does have some pretty cool combos... I saw one give Leeroy Jenkins (a 6/2 legendary with charge) two rockbiter weapons and windfury. That's 24 damage in one turn for only 8 mana. I might start playing as him if I ever get Lightning Storm and Feral Spirit. I've been getting a TON of duplicate cards lately, which is slightly frustrating.

@Geonjaha Your friend request hasn't showed up for me for some reason so I just sent you one.

During beta I had a problem where none of my requests would go through. I assumed it'd been fixed by now, but it might be a regional problem. :L

EDIT: It is indeed a regional thing. I can still play in US based servers but I have to start my deck collection again (Might as well play Arena on here though because outside of legendaries my collection is almost complete).
