    Been a minute since the last time I played but I've been sticking my toes back in the water.

    I have since dusted all my old legendaries in hope of making Shadowreaper Anduin.

    That's right bitches Mindblast priest is real. Got a decent winrate too. A friend of mine has also been introduced and I got him setup with a decent aggro Elemental Shaman. Will post card list laterz

    Anyway fuck beast hunter that shit is stupid

    You dusted everything to make a card that's going to be rotating out in a month? D:

    Someone did the math, you end up even by crafting the goldens. Just craft regular genn/baku

    Still don't care about standard, even with with upcoming changes. Cautiously optimistic about the pve though.

    Re Doomguard, Blizz hates charge. Stonetusk is next.

    If you craft a legendary golden and you don't have a non golden copy, you get the 3200 dust refund, and can then disenchant them for the normal 1600. So you are up 1600 dust. It only works if you don't have them already. I don't have any of the stags and have only one moth. If I craft them golden for 4800 (1600 each) I will get that back when they go to the hall of fame. I can then disenchant them for 400 each as they are golden epics. But if you do have a non-golden copy you don't make a profit dust-wise.
    I don't have Greymane so will craft him golden to use now and in wild, then I have the option of disenchanting for an additional 1600 dust later, or I can just stay even.

    But if you do have a non-golden copy you don't make a profit dust-wise.

    So I really don't understand this HOF and dust things, I have all this cards (regular - not golden) and even have few extra copies. Should I dust it now or wait after rotation ? When will I get more dust for this extra copies ?

    They still haven't nerfed armor gain. I quit this game when all the stupid druid decks and snore control warriors took over the ladder and nothing has been done about it.

    Why does armor as objectively better health even exist as a mechanic? They should have had it do something more interesting.

    New expansion launches today. I’ll be playing a miracle rogue/pirate hybrid. Do you guys have any decks lined up?

    I'm planning to build out a bomb warrior and murloc shaman for now and see what i can make happen. Might also play around with the new rush tools for warriors from the deck recipes, but I've got the feeling that's not gonna be a very good deck, so we'll see.

    Murlocs could turn out to be decently strong. Also think token druid might make a comeback.

    Secret paladin is predicted to be Tier 1, but I’m kinda tired of pala always being OP.

    Honestly, I'm expecting a midrange bomb warrior to be the #1 deck in the game. It just counters so much of the existing and potential new decks that I don't see it being meaningfully threatened.

    The bombs hard counter combo, midrange warrior hard counters aggro, there's enough speed and value to counter most control decks, etc, etc.

    Oh, and it has the new Dr. 7, which is functionally "Fuck you, I win: The Card".

    Secret paladin is probably gonna be pretty good, but I dunno about tier 1. It will really depend on how good Rhyssa and desperate measures are. The potential is definitely there, but without something like Mysterious Challenger and its deck pruning massive tempo swing, I'm not convinced it will work. Bellringer might be enough to manage it though, who knows.

    How many packs you guys plan to open? I myself about 70 from gold, I don’t want to spend real cash on preorders.

    I only have 500 gold right now. I’ll be crafting the cards I want to use to start with. I’ve got close to 20k dust and hall of fame should tip me over that edge.

    I think secret pally might be overhyped. I struggle to see how a secret pally deck without avenge and divine favour can do anything but fizzle out quickly. I do like the new secret though.

    I'd keep an eye out for silence priest. It got an insane amount of tools. Kind of depressed by how good thief rogue looks. It's not fun if it's actually just looks good, lol.

    Not buying packs. Waiting for single player.

    I'll be going with Whizbang all day today.

    I might try out this week, pirate rogue; Hooktusk looking mighty fine finally; some Control and Rush Warrior; having the Villain Dr. Boom card from boomsday and the rhino loa along with Oondasta; means that I don't have to spend much dust on these 3 decks.

    I have 6k gold ready for the launch but depending on how many packs we get from the special quests today then I will open anywhere from 40-50 packs.

    I will get an arena ticket for the forced retirement of my run so I will also spend some time in Wild Arena today as well.

    I want to save 1k so I can have 2.4k gold when the adventure unlocks next month.

    I'm a whale, so I've got the two preorder packs and am gonna open all 130 of those. I doubt I'll be opening anything more than that, as I have ~12k dust sitting around from purging my Wild gold library, but I might if in a few days I run out of dust and there's a shiny new deck I really wanna play.

    I opened 68 packs with gold got only 3 leg so I was pissed and broke my promise. I bought this bundle for 10 euro and in this 9 packs I got 2 legendaries at least that and I got so many epics with no duplicates in them so I am pretty happy.

    I opened 50 packs and got 2 legendaries. My pity timer is 3 packs. The two that I opened were Heistbaron Togwaggle and Arch-Villain Rafaam.
