We should adjust the release clock to correlate with the inevitable server lag we'll get.

I feel like Floop is being a little overrated. It really only fits in one deck (Malygos Druid) and that deck is already tier 1, so how much of an impact can Floop really have?

I feel like cards like Wargear, which will likely be everywhere, are going to be more impactful overall than a one-of card that can only slot into one deck.

I don't know, mayne. Everyone likes to ride that Malygos train, but you can grab another Hydronox, Lich King, Primordial Drake, Carnivorous Cube...pretty much anything you need. Cenarius, Greedy Sprite, Zilliax, Splintergraft, Faceless Manipulator, Countess Ashmore...whatever. If it has a powerful battlecry or deathrattle, you can copy it. Can only run a one-of in your deck, now you can have two. It's crazy. CRAZY!

Sure, you'll have to change your deck around and, sure, it may be over-rated, but I think it fits in most Druid decks. I mean, damn, in Token it could spawn Treants or be another Fungalmancer or Giggling Inventor. In Ramp it can be a ramp creature if you run it, LK, Drake, MC Tech, Bright-eyed Scout...it's flexible and powerful.

Good luck with your pack openings everyone! may you get the legendaries you want!

Yeah, mayne, you too!

Random question: what's the state of Hearthstone at the moment?

I just gave up just after Kobolds & Catacombs came out and just went cold turkey. Haven't logged in once this year, haven't read anything about the game either. My sanity and wallet are better for it but I was just curious if it's still the same old song and dance or if it picked up a bit after Ben Brode left?
the general reactions i've seen to the last expansions meta has been a lot more positive than any in recent memory. some people really hate taunt druid but i personally think the meta was one of the most enjoyable in ages. there were decks for every class that were fun to play, and for once none of the classes felt so hamstrung that you wouldn't bother considering even playing them, eg warrior after pirate bit the dust

The most recent balance patch did wonders for the game in both standard and wild. The top tier was diverse and constantly changing, while not feeling too much like rock paper scissors compared to something like the Quest Rogue days.

Aggro is really weak right now in standard too, which people have been asking for forever. That might have been a "be careful what you wish for" sort of thing because of time commitments, now that 10 minute games are the norm and 5 minute games are the exception, but it's still nice for a change.

Don't know what boomsday will do to it.

I don't get the appeal of pack streams where the streamer opens 300 or more packs. Getting every card for sure but super slowly oh yay.

Got Dr Morrigan as my login legendary, Subject 9 from my first 10 packs. As an f2p player this expansion might be a little bit of an uphill climb for me.

Ugh got Myra Rotspring as my free Legendary, useless.

Opened 40 packs and got Stargazer Luna and Zilliax, much better than I normally do. Will open my other 40 later.

just play wild, using subject 9 in a secret hunter deck (which isn't expensive at all) is going to be bonkers, a hunter that can draw 5 cards in an azure drake? and has a way to play them free? oh and it's a beast? absurd

Fair play, sounds like it could be worth keeping an eye on. I'll watch some streams and see how this expansion looks.

Thanks for the replies.

I guess you get the preorder golden legendaries through packs? No way i'm lucky enough to get double golden legendary by chance in my first 20 packs.

You should've gotten them when you logged in, after the free class legendary minion (or hero card).

I got Dr. Morrigan as my freebie which sucks but I did get golden Dr. Boom and Zerek's Cloning Gallery (maybe that'll turn out to be OKish).

50 packs, here's what I got:

Flark's Boom-Zooka (Golden)
Luna's Pocket Galaxy
Crystal Smith Kangor
Zerek's Cloning Gallery
Electra Stormsurge

Free Golden: Solarium
Free class Legendary: Boommaster Flark

Overall pretty happy. Better legendary count than last expansion.

Bad luck for me. Opened the 83 packs and only got 3 legendaries (apart from the free clash legendary and free gold legendary for preordering).

Got 2 of the legendaries I wanted though, Solarium and Myra's Unstable Portal, so that's nice.

It looks like they didn't reset arena runs with this expansion. Guess that makes sense cause there was no rotation. So I'll be continuing my 7 win run after work.

lol wow.

Relogged in and I now have golden versions of Luna's Pocket Galaxy, Crystalsmith Kangor, Myra Rotspring, and The Storm Bringer. Unfortunately none of them seem that great, but still nice.

Watching Dog get in the winning situation and then fuck up the combo every time with OTK priest is great.

Whizbang (golden preorder)
Subject 9 (after 9 packs)
Luna's Pocket Galaxy (16)
Soularium (32)

Does everyone get Dr Boom? Or did I just get lucky? Said I had a new Lab Partner and gave me a reward when I opened it up.
