Well that was the fastest brawl victory ever.

Got a golden rare (Spirit Wolves)

Mystary! That would be 100 dust for your counterspell. Sorry MEN

 

[Mystary!]

Oops, meant spellbender.

Hearthstone Specialist Phage M.S.PHD hasn't chimed in here in a while.

What was your pull from today's Brawl phage?

 

[Metro]

Phage has been doxxed. RIP. Brawl is terrible. Got pack, not playing again.

 

[Andhaira]

Phage has been doxxed.

Who doxxed him and why?

 

[Metro]

I'm not at liberty to say.

 

[Brotherman Bill]

I'm not at liberty to say.

Where and when did this drama happen at least ? Was it on the dex?

He actually has me on his skype back when we played LoL, did he use his real name on there? If he was that haphazard with the name there's no wonder he got fucked. Still a pity of course.

 

[Metro]

Just kidding, I don't know.

 

[Phage]

No I wasn't doxxed, I just wanted to try to stay away from the codex because I waste so much time here. I was also afraid of some of the people I sperg-war'd with in the MGS thread would try to spoiler MGSV for me.

Anyways I haven't even played this brawl yet, I'll do it later today/tomorrow.

I did however... MAKE AN EU ACCOUNT

You can all add... DRUMROLL... UncleSam#2489 if you'd like.

I literally played the basic mage deck to rank 20 on August 31st without losing a match lol. (I did have like, a silver hand knight from one of the packs). Don't know if that's just EURO WEAKNESS or if ranks 25-20 are really that hilariously bad. Haven't played ranked in Setember yet on UncleSam yet.

To be honest, I'm not going to spend any money on the account, and likely won't bother sinking much time into arenas. That said, don't know how long it will take to build even a cheap competitive deck like Patron. (might be months)

As for the metagame right now:

- Mark my words, Riddler Paladin has no staying power. It's pretty easy to play around after you've faced it a few times
- Patron Warrior and Zoo will rise again!
- Eloise hit legend rank 3 with literally "old ramp druid with darnassus aspirants", which I said was going to be the best deck at first!
- If you own Nozdormu, farm up your free wins with NOZDORMU JOUST COMBO before Blizzard patches it

 

[Metro]

Whatever, Phil.

 

[Zeriel]

EU is gross. (Except in real life, pretty cool in that case.)

 

[FeelTheRads]

EU is worst country.

Also, Blizzard didn't really bother to patch the Panda->Nozdormu bug either. Or well, to patch the retarded animations so they don't continue on the other player's turn. Goes to show where their priorities are when animations are more important than the actual game.

 

[Metro]

Apparently the Noz issue has been fixed. Amazing how it took them one afternoon when the shit has been broken for a year or more.

 

[Grubba]

Well it was only an "issue" before because of some janky-ass combo deck with youthful brewmaster. It's not like it came up that often, in fact I don't think anybody discovered it until recently (or actually got it to work). It wasn't a high priority fix. Now it's a legitimate issue because it interacts with a major feature of the new set and is easier to pull off.

 

[Andhaira]

I've been having shit luck with pulling legends. They really need to do something about the random seed, or at least give us more dust or more gold to open more packs.

I have 5 legends I really want & I don't want to have to spend moar money on this.

 

[Metro]

Trust me, they're probably shit legends, anyway.

 

[Andhaira]

No, they don't include Boom or Sneeds.

 

[Andhaira]

Got 35 dust from my TGT pack. 2 days more before I can open another pack.

Around 19-20 TGT packs opened and not a single legendary, and only 2-3 epics. And now I am not ever getting new Rares. What the fuck Blizzard; it's obvious they are tampering with the random seed.

Nah - if this guy's data is correct, there was a 37% chance you weren't getting a legendary out of those 20 lol: https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/35pg9y/what_are_the_chances_of_getting_at_least_1/

Legendaries end up being worth like 30 bucks each or something like that if you do the math - pretty silly tbh.

 

[Explorerbc]

I must have opened about 45 so far and got 1 legendary.

In other news I tried Gnimsh's aggro druid, dragon priest and versions of the secret paladin. They are ok but my trusty pre-tgt mid-range hunter seems to be the most reliable deck to ladder. I don't know if it is because I am not familiar with them yet, or because they aren't so good.

 

[FeelTheRads]

On EU I opened about 30 TGT packs now including those I got from arenas and no legendary. On NA I got one from like 10 packs. Blizzard screwing EU since forever.

 

[Andhaira]

So MEN, any guesses for what's coming in December? Last year we had GvG, but this year they moved the expansions back to earlier.

I'm guessing we will be getting skins for the remaining heroes as well as more deck slots (for money, and they will be overpriced like the skins)

Apart from that I don't really see a new adventure, though I could be wrong. What else could they do content wise? Another game mode?

 

[FeelTheRads]

Deck slots would be overpriced if they cost more than $0.

 

[Metro]

They could push out another adventure by December. BRM had fairly low production values. I expect the next one will be even cheesier.
