Yes those Belias bots are grinding gold. Once your above 1000 elo, you don't see those anymore.
If you guys want a good way to unlock cards, the swiss tournaments are really good once you have a decent constructed deck. If you make it to about 1200 elo your probably ready. When they don't crash, they are extremely efficient at winning packs.
Of course your going to need a decent deck first, and that will require some grinding or $, and a little bit of luck.
Don't waste your tournament tickets at first, until your confident in going in there , get some experience in jackpot, and ranked and then when your ready go do it. You will find a ton of your matches are easy wins against new players or players with poor decisions. My win rate was extremely good at one point, and I 3-0 more often I 2-1 , and I almost never ever 1-2 in swiss.

i met some of those bots, so tempted to make one and let them run at night :D

And then you get reported enough and lose all the progress.

i really hate it when you press End Turn then suddenly it hit you that you had a much better move which actually lost you the game.

isnt that like every game that is turn-based?

Do people get the Void Box or Heroic Box with your first batch of shards?
|
Get the big box if you can afford it.
It's best value.

Man, the more I play this the more I love it! I love them Angels! I think it's quite good for some pre-Hearthstone prep playing.
Haven seems a little bit HIt or Miss in terms of draws, which every deck are in principle anyway. At least the Hero have good board clear in her School of Air.
What card count do people go for btw? I feel like 60 is a good number, but I'm far beyond xD

I like how this thread got a lot more active with hearthstone beta :D.
For people who want to try this out here are the (hopefully) still working promo codes:
TH4NK5FBF4N5 - gold boost 5
5ORRY54TURD4Y - 100 seals and 1 pack
WE-ARE-NO-TROLLS - 1 pack
www.penny-arcade.com/static/duelofchampions - 275 seals and 3 reinforcement packs
THANK5-4-THE-F4CEBOOK-LUV - 1 pack
There are more codes out there but they don't work anymore.
Spend your seals on boxes and gold on reinforcement packs until you feel like you have enough core cards. Doing achevements also gives some bonuses so for example getting 50 people on you friend list gives you free pack.

wow! those worked thanks :D

Haven't played in awhile but the activity in this thread made me play a swiss tonight, still easy pickings for packs if you guys are missing herald of the void cards. All I really want from the set is 1x song of the lost so I can play the ice splinters combo decks, but its still alluding me. Haven aggro is my best decktype, and I want to play sandalphon, but want that 1x song of the lost.
Instead playing a pretty dull grindy Andur Malik control deck right now, and it's great vs all the creature heavy decks in swiss.
If anyone wants to add me in game, my ign is bluebird503.
Also Kelthor is by far my favorite hero, enrage is such a fun mechanic in this game, and he has the best synergies/interactions(maybe not the strongest archetype, just tons of synergy and ways to blow people out, sac altar + pao etc are so good together).
I'll probably play some Kelthor this weekend in some swiss tournaments.

i just put in every card i deem good :D
Haven fighting!

Decks shouldn't be any larger than the minimum 59. 1 hero, 8 events, 50 other cards. Playing any more than 50 is just diluting the good cards with worse ones.
|
shadow can you give me some advice? this probably gonna sound like RNG complaint, but:
i'm lvl 8 and around 800 elo trying to build that random garant deck. i've spent all my gold and seals on reinforcement packs/boxes.
after 40-50 packs total, the 1 rare i use in my deck is an event. every single rare i've gotten is barb/haven stuff
should i just start over and hope for better rolls lol?

If you really haven't gotten *anything* good out of that many packs, starting a new account isn't a horrible idea. Don't get too attached to any one faction though. You'll have a lot more fun playing all of them than you will sticking with just one, even if you can't build a perfect deck or anything. Also, your ELO is totally irrelevant except for a few achievements. 1501 is a bit of an accomplishment, but anything 500-1500 may as well be the same.

So the above is everything, you can see I only use that 1 event on the bottom right in my deck lol.
I picked garant because I love aggro tempo, I run 3 innerfire 3 frenzy 2 teleport (haven't seen a single TP). So my games are pretty tense and exciting.
I told myself not to go to the forums to check our decks/strategy but I couldn't resist, of course there I see:
4x Dark Assassin
4x Pao Deathseeker
etc

Wow, 3 Eleonores and 3 Vestals... that sucks. On the bright side, you do have Seria's Legion, 3 Shadow Images, a Puppetmaster, and a Curse of the Netherworld. Altar of Eternal Servitude isn't bad either, I don't think. 2 Tsunamis and a Geyser is good for level 8 too. It's not the worst set of rares and epics possible, but I can see why it sucks if you're dead set on playing Inferno. There aren't any good rares/epics for an Inferno rush deck in the base set anyway, except for Dark Assassin and Pao like you mentioned, and those are neutrals. The Shadow Images are really nice in a Belias rush deck, which is what I play most of the time, actually.
|
Dark Assasin isn't actually isn't that good anymore, or atleast I don't see it in a lot of competitive decks, and I haven't been using mine much.
Pao is freaking essential though.
You can make a strong, probably tier 2 ariana necro control deck wtih zero epics and no pao, but it requires some rares like puppet master, and a few other things.
The tier 1 necro control deck adar malik requires atropos and paos and stuff.
|
I have 1 DA, and it gets firebolted or otherwise instantly removed like 50% of the time and blocked by something it can't kill 40% of the time. It's not bad because it does force my opponent to deal with it, but yeah, not that amazing.
I have pretty much everything for an Adar Malik deck, but I'm missing like 1 or 2 of so many cards that it ends up being rather weak. I have 3 spitters, 2 soul consuming liches, 2 shadow images, 2 puppetmasters, 2 soulreavers (that I got from the Ariana deck, I've NEVER gotten one in a pack wtf). So many other people play the same deck that I end up losing the mirror matchup 100% of the time since their decks are better. It's very frustrating.
|
I think the epic you want for inferno rush is that 2/4 shooter that does 1 magic damage per turn, although she's weaker now with the wild spirits nerf so she's probably not essential anymore at all. Idk haven't played much at all since they nerfed necro, today and yesterday was my first time playing since those changes.
Also I like how there is an event at pax in Seattle and there like "just come on by if your in the area, check us out"
Come on plz. I can't get into pax if I was in the area.
