    Oh cry more, seriously, it's a simple turn based card game, if you can't manage 3 wins you don't deserve a mount.

After i was playing a few months, I actually thought Blizzard might be making a mistake for making it too easy for free players. I play frequently with 3 different heroes, and despite buying stuff from the store in WOW and from other f2p games ( stronghold kingdoms, DDO), I have never even been tempted to buy from hearthstone because I can do well without it.

    Maybe the game is just too difficult for you?
    What rank are you then?

    haha. I spent about 15 minutes playing 5 matches, winning 3 to get my mount... never spent a dime on the game.

    After this type of post, I seriously think WOW needs to have 1-button rotations for some players. Also, you do realize that probably 95% of the players you are seeing today downloaded the game today?

    If I win, it is based on skill,
    If I lose, the game sucks and is based on luck.

    Yep, sounds about like every other pvp game out there.

    if you lost 10 games in a row, the problem is in your ability to understand the game.

    You must be one of those people who ignore minions and go all out for the hero, right?

    He might be onto something actually. I've been playing Hearthstone for months on and off successfully, then the patch came and I've lost 20 Casual Play games in a row. Before today I was winning every 2 out of 3 Casual Games. At this point I'm starting to suspect something changed in the code and its putting me up against the best of the best players because the decks I'm seeing could only be from very long term players and not one match has been against Jaina. Turtle, please Disapprove of whatever has happened to my luck!

    Unfortunately, as usual Blizzard didn't keep its word.
    This was supposed to be a reward for people who actually loved the Hearthstone and helped them test it during beta.

    Now every idiot out there, some even HATE card game, can get this mount for free. Stupid.

    That black and red mount is most likely for some other purpose. The Hearthsteed is gray and blue because it's, as the trailer said, made from the same material as a hearthstone.

    Papar - maybe the beta testers should have got their own mount, but it's not stupid overall.

    No, I don't hate the game, but I never would have tried it without that little carrot dangling in front of me.

    I got past Illidan (took a bit, and I think I just lucked out), and started playing Ranked (as per advice on here). I guess I played an hour or so for my three wins. Hey, it was even fun losing the first few games to another player. My winning though, was probably me against other grandmas, except for the guy who suddenly up and left.

    At the very least, it'll be something amusing to derp around with if I don't feel like doing anything more in-depth than that. At least it only takes a few minutes to play a hand.

    Got a question on this. In my case, I played Hearthstone and got the 3 wins. However, I'm currently unsubbed in WoW and I think that I won't likely be subbing again until something WoD related comes up. Will the email be sent to me by the time I log in? Or has it already been sent, meaning that I have to sub and log within a month in order to receive it?

    I won EVERY game I played against people at my own skill level, BUT I lost EVERY game against people with another char deck than Jaina starter shit pack.
    I'm happy you had the LUCK to play against Jaina, but I didn't.
    Oh and for the record, you can't be good at card games, it's 90% luck.
    It's like saying "you suck at flip a coin"... -.-

    Yeah cause there are no hearthstones in WoW itself. The mount is supposed to be designed after the hearthstone. Grey body with a blue light. But there is no Hearthstone on it. Thus making the horse look either scourge in nature from the blue light. Or a Mogu stone horse animated.
