There's no privilege like White privilege in the UAE.

I get treated like I'm second to the sheikh around here.

Second at Wednesday Night Modern at the most competitive store in my province with Mardu tokens (Frank Lepore's built with slight tweeks, infinitely better than mine). Feels good man.

Until you get stabbed to death in a mall restroom.

Too soon?

Nope. The requisite moment of silence has passed.

Seriously, though, that's been one violent crime in Abu Dhabi since... I dunno. Long fucking time. In the time it takes me to write this post, 3 murders will occur in my home city and ten times that in Detroit. You know why this stabbing was such a big story? Because that shit never happens here. I have never felt as safe in the States as I do here.

hearthstone is awesome post expansion. for... 2 months I figure. Good alternative to not spew millions on Cube. Can't even focus long enough to play DE's anymore, fuck MODO.

It wasn't too terrible; it just wasn't how I was planning on spending yesterday afternoon.
I'm fully aware that it only gets harder.

I'd enjoy hearthstone more if my Zoo skillz hadn't deteriorated to shit. Couldn't get out of rank fucking nine four x hours. Switched to mech mage and ranked up like nothing.

Basically went down to mid ten, then played mage and have been on a win streak through rank 7 as of 1 hour ago.

Mage has definitely been my favorite class for a while. It's so damn easy to get wins.

I'm still a huge scrub at that game. I haven't put any money into it aside from naxx and have had terrible luck with opening legends, limiting me to >1000 dust decks.

t1: breeding pool
t2: steam vents untapped play rattleclaw mystic
t3: fetch island play animar
t4: cast prophet of kruphix
--cast morphs and shit protecting my board with venser in hand (and willbender on board)
t5: cast Glimpse, shrieking drake, metamorph on shrieking drake bouncing metamorph, do this for 33 life and eventually draw cloudstone curio, purphurous, palinchron into draw my whole deck and win.

felt good. filthy casuals

What HS decks are you using? I'm currently using a Deathrattle Hunter and a non-optimal Handlock. Used to play Mage, but I got a bit tired of it. I'm stuck att rank 13-15 currently. Haven't got many card from the new exp. yet so I haven't really looked into any mech decks yet.

There's a really good new hunter deck for about 800 dust. It's mostly naxx cards and a few commons from the new set.

Having never played hunter before, I only had to spend 300 dust to build it.

Is there a guide to dust and card crafting? I have no idea where to start, and I have a fair amount of random cards and prizes from Arena runs. I'd like to play constructed though.

Hearthstoneplayers.com has a bunch of guides for dusting and crafting.

I have 95% of the cards so generally can play whatever I want. I'm missing maybe 5 key legendaries in the game.

Currently I'm playing Handlcok, Mech Mage and occasionoally zoo. I have control warrior but I'm missing Doctor boom boom and with the gagadtzen nerf, I'm not confidant in the new weapon rogue builds.

My rec for anyone trying to get into competitive hearthstone and for winning quickly is to get the dust for archmage antonidas and just dust like mad for all the commons/uncommons you'd need for mechmage. Zoo and hunter used to be the de facto cheap agro decks, but they're less good in the new meta and mage shits on basically everything that isn't handlock with a good hand.

If you have the cards for anything, first deck you should get is handlock since it's literally always going to be playable. Whenever hunters on the decline it's pretty much the best deck by a lot in my humble opinion. Took me until last month to final start playing it a lot and it's pretty fucking satisfying. It's fairly expensive as far as decks go though second to only control warrior I think.

Do you have list for it? My current hunter deck is mostly naxx and various traps and deathrattle stuff from the classic set. It's ok, but I feel I need to update it with new cards.

LP, do you have a list for the Mech Mage deck? I have Antonidas and various other Mage cards, so I think I could make it pretty easily.

Yes.

Is this how dumb Magic sounds to people who don't play Magic?

Scroll to the bottom of Kibler's article.

I've been playing that with Azure drake in the Fel Reaver slot and I won approx. ten in a row from rank ten to seven and 3 stars.

I think its great how Blizzard named World of Warcraft spells after hearthstone cards.

also have you guys noticed that wotc actually named a card 'millstone'? Like, how not-subtle can you be? Its so obvious its used to mill your opponent.
