I think you are still missing the point, the average doesn't tell where you are falling, which is 50g on 64% of the time. I absolutely love to min max in this game and I know from experience that rerolling a 60g quest isn't going to make profit, they are just making it easier for people who doesn't play to get their quests done on the easier quests.
And sure, it is actually a downgrade, but for people who really care this doesn't really matter much, I never adviced anyone to reroll a 60g quest.
If I get a 3 win quest with a class I don't currently like I'm rerolling it. Being guaranteed to get a 50g quest now stinks.
oh that's a shame then... well, I already got nzoth and rag, let's see if I have the rest
I think this event will do more to shake up the meta than the Rise of the Mechs event did. Really loving the mid-cycle shakeups that they've been doing that aren't just card nerfs.
I only have golden portraits with half the characters and I play Hearthstone all the time. Either I am not very good, or these awards are for the true poop sockers.
I had to go check, but so far:
Hunter: 660
Priest: 532
Paladin: 390
Mage: 258
Warlock: 160
Warrior: 66
Druid: 62
Rogue: 44
Hunter and Priest grind time!
I forgot Shaman. Oh well lol

Well I guess it's back to it then. It was kinda nice playing the game significantly less and playing around with every class. I just fucking finished too.
Mage - 633
Warrior - 546
Hunter - 523
Paladin - 520
Rogue - 517
Priest - 507
Druid - 501
Shaman - 501
Warlock - 500
Let's start the journey again

I'm not even close to 200 for any of them. I might challenge myself to grind it out for mage though. As much as I have (monetary) invested in HS, I've come to the realization the time spent playing it does not even equate to the cost of what I've spent.
I fall victim to standard ladder climb anxiety quite a bit.

I have 17K wins registered in my total wins, there must be a LOT more games counting loses, I have about 1.2k wins in ranked mode because of my crippling axiety, I would have gotten those cap long ago, but I hate losing stars
I would say you were being ridiculous if I didn't have the same exact problem! I don't get it if I'm at or near a rank floor though.
Daaang. I am at around 1.8k wins. Just a couple of hundred in standard. Its like, once I get those stars I don't want to lose them either but I know its part of the grind and need to get over it if I am ever gonna finally make it to legend.
I will say, this has been the most fun I've had playing HS in a while; still rockin' highlander mage, Quest Shaman is blast as well but I am gonna give Quest Mage a shot... Looks like a lot of fun. I did recently unpack the golden Warlock lackey buff legendary and I am wondering if I should build a Zoo deck and grind it out as well...
Only class I have above 1000 is Shaman. Excited to see the portrait, Thunder King will be short lived it seems.
Nope and probably won't ever. I think they already explained several times why they don't like the idea.
I didn't expect they would, just hoping really. It's so unbelievably stupid.
goddamn, I have 6 classes with 1000 victories, and Shaman at 4789 (so hopefully they add a new prize for the 5k victories lol) also I am excited to play again with my golden Ragnaros soon
No way.
I mean this would definitely change some shit, but I can't imagine seeing Flamewaker again. But hey that would at least make Mage competitive.
Evolve?!?!?!
Seeing Mysterious Challenger listed just fucked me all up. Those are memories I didn't want to ever think about again.
Could be some really cool stuff with the other cards if this is actually true.
I hope this is legit actually. That's alot of power and for a limited time event, I want it to have an actual impact.
that is a huge list of cards if they are true, no wonder they are taking them out after the event, there is just no way they would give away that amount of dust lol
That list looks kinda bullshit. Why would they give some classes some of the strongest cards they ever had and some classes some of the worst meme cards they ever had?
the only real meme card I see there is astral comunion.
TBH the list looks kinda true, all those cards seem to work in the archetypes established by the uldum cards, those wild card won't probably make new archetypes, but make the existing ones batshit insane. I mean, kun with that quest druid looks nutty, same with thing from below with evolve in quest shaman
Bringing back Astral Communion without bringing back old Innervate and Wild Growth is cowardly you cowards
lock and load
renounce darkness
even varian wrynn to some extent
I mean, even swashburglar looks a little memey compared to something like mysterious champion, even though it is a burgle card. Lock and load may be acceptable. But they are basically creating/bringing back whole new archetypes and just giving somewhat okay cards to others.
Some of these cards I hope are true. Some... well... no.
The tweets say the source is comphs discord. I am a fairly regular member there, although not much in the last few weeks. Dunno where anyone there would get a list like this.
edit:
There may be some legitimacy to the leaks since apparently they came from a grandmaster player who leaked it accidentally
I totally forgot what renounce darkness was lol.
Yeah there are at least 2 cards there which are truly memey, but lock and load and varian doesn't look as memey, they are usually just bad.
but then again, the idea is to shake the meta and make thing more fun, those meme cards are necessary, imo
How can you do an event like this and not bring back Yogg?
Flamewaker, though...
with lock and load I really crave a yogg back, sad to not see it again
This.
Even though it's one of my all time faves, it just enables way too much stupid shit. I'm trying to think of what classes would play it right now. I think any Highlander deck probably would.
ET was seen in way more than combo decks because it turns out generating mana is really good and it also enabled some finishers otherwise not possible. ET also just makes combo decks possible that were not previously. Some borderline playable combo decks could become good. But I think ET coming back temporarily is a good thing.
yeah may be we can see some new combo stuff not seen before because of the mana reduction...
ET and Sylvanas coming back makes Power of Creation sort of nuts, right? That is a huge buff to the 6-drop slot.
First thing I thought of. Maybe Paladin?
Thinking about it in my head I can almost get it, but I'm 1 mana off.

The priest matchup is dicey but outside of certain draws on their part it's far from unwinnable. I personally feel it's a better matchup than a lot of other meta decks right now outside of teched quest shamans and control warriors.
I've also started seeing some 'removal warrior' which I've been beating but I don't know if that's the expected outcome (due to all the gas) or if I'm getting lucky. My guess is they're here as a response to the power of priest as keeping that deck off the board is so incredibly powerful overall.
The scarab egg is definitely the 30th card in the deck and could maybe be a 2nd abusive or maybe even a spirit bomb to further improve the priest matchup. Having removal that can go around their big taunt to hit a cleric can be valuable in terms of slowing their ability to build a board.
This is the most hilarious deck I've ever seen that's purported to be good.
