TB awarding classic packs has a the chance of giving you that card for free, instead of having to spend precious dust/gold/money that should be spent on the newest set out cards.

    Giving a pack from the new set is awesome, but players were already saving gold/dust/money to get packs from the set instead of spending to get old cards like Twisting Nether, Shield Slam, Thalnos, or w/e that you may be missing. Having a pack to save you dust by filling in old card gaps, which in turn allows you to spend more of your resources getting the new stuff instead of the old, is a worthwhile reward to me.
    Classic packs are dust fodder with MAAAAAAYBE a chance to get one legendary you still haven't got

    Meanwhile, Ungoro packs are going to give you cards that you FOR SURE haven't got yet

    In a couple weeks you're going to want as many Ungoro packs as you can get, to better your chances of getting cards to make you competitive in the new meta. And Blizz is giving you packs from the new expansion FOR FREE.

    I cannot fathom why you would complain about this.

    Because in the end some of those classic cards are very good in control and some midrangey decks. In the competitive scene your deck is going to suffer during mirror matches if you lack the occasional classic card that your opponent does have & must resort to cheaper and less consistent substitutes (if the card even has an adequate replacement).

    You also need to consider that there are plenty of f2p players that don't just want to focus on only one or two decks each meta. For those players they aren't going to be dusting nearly as many cards in the next expansion because they are wanting to craft decks full of those new cards across multiple heroes. That means they have fewer dust than a classic pack would give them (even if they don't pull the rare epic or legendary card they are missing). In terms of the rate of dust that a player will get from a classic pack, versus an Un'Goro pack, the f2p player will actually get more raw dust value per pack than Un'Goro (again assuming they are not just focusing on one or two decks/heroes) because many more of the Un'Goro cards are going to be used for the f2p player than most of the classic cards which would be dusted right away.

    Un'Goro packs are ONLY more valuable in terms of making a deck competitive, but they are certainly NOT more valuable than classic packs if your ultimate goal is to dust a bunch of cards you aren't going to use. In that sense Un'Goro packs can't compete.

    I think i got to 73 damage on Stormwind before I lost. You can definitely make decks to go way farther but I just created some buff pally deck quick for a quest and won first game and haven't touched since.

    I'm wondering if there is a way to force this Stormwind brawl to go on forever, just racking up damage. The only one I can think of is a druid golem deck but I don't have the card and can't test it. Any other cards able to force a non-ending game?

    I won't complain about this brawl since I'm easily able to finish my dailies. I was surprised how easy it was to ''win'' with this meme deck I made to complete a few dailies, a full divine shield/weapon deck that actually manages to deal 100 damage.

    It ends automatically when you go over 100 damage but any damage done over will record in your score

    So Jade Druid is best for building your big finisher because the never-ending golems will always control his board no matter how big his minions get, and you can use a Scaled Nightmare to grow to a stupidly high attack value before hitting face to end it.

    I thought this was a cute fun teamwork Brawl. Much better than the others because it seemed easy and low stress. I was actually a bit happy.

    And then phase 2 happened.

    Pretty fun brawl, since I pretty much like all teamworking brawls. I like how the boss doesn't have super RNG'ish abilities that can completely screw you over after a long game, from what I've seen he only occasionaly deals 2 damage to all minions. If your opponent knows what to do then its a very easy brawl. Though with Un'goro coming out soon, I would've liked to see a brawl where you can actually play the new cards. This kind of brawl will probably come soon after the expansion launches like with MSoG.

    Is it always Druid vs Rogue or is it just coincidence I have 3 back quests all involving Rogues and/or Druids?

    Working with other player made me feel very happy! Faith in humanity restored!
    Might be weird, but I think I could really enjoy a 2v2, or 2players vs 1npcboss fights in hearthstone!

    Pretty hard if the other player are working against you. Got it the third time with a cooperating player.

    THG would be one of the things that could make HS a better game for sure, but there are probably a lot of implications online (what if your partner disconnects or concedes etc.).

    THG?
    But overall those are good points, I didn't even think about those x)

    I´m a little more provocative than you might be.
    It´s your shock and then your horror on which I feed.
    So can you tell me what exactly does freedom mean,
    if I´m not free to be as twisted as I wanna be?

    Oh cool, I don't know anything about MTG(except that it's been there for 50 years or something). This cleared a lot, thanks!

    I hate these weeks. One of the major reasons I play this is for the weekly TB.
