I have to admit, that i haven't seen any kind of error/bugs on streams yet, and being a f2p game feels rare to see a so well polished beta. I may be wrong, since i haven't played it.



Blizzard game beta are usually very advanced in the product.

If I had to guess the beta is mostly to test the Money integration to make sure that it is airtight (Including refunds and security and all the baggage associated with having in-game payments), and of course to get some idea of how their servers will need to scale with serious game population.

Game looked pretty fun on stream if insanely Pay2Win.

It's a 3d card game. Also, I'm assuming you have zero application experience.

Is there a game mode that isn't pay2win? I remember something about a "forge" mode or something where players choose from a random pool of cards every match. Does this exist in the beta?

Free living card games don't really exist and this game is clearly targeting the FTP market

It's called Arena and it works similar to drafting. You get a choice between 3 random cards (I think of the same rarity), 30 times and that's your deck. You have to pay Gold or Real money to play that though.

You play until you either have 3 losses, or 9 wins and you get some rewards based on how many wins you get.

Why can't I find the card "The Coin" in any online deck builders? Are basic cards always in your deck or something?

The Coin is given to the player who goes 2nd automatically. It's not actually a card you can add to your deck.

Man, I must have fallen behind. How do deckbuilders work, if each class has its own pool of cards/spells? Is it a base pool or something, that you add to?

Each class has a set of cards only they can use. There is however a Neutral set that all classes have access to.

After watching the streams of hearthstone here are my views

I compare Hearthstone to League and Magic to Dota/Hon. Why? Hearthstone follows the same philosophy of a simplified game . It is less cash grab since there is online MMR, but of course they would put in purchase options for boosters. I saw that your gold can only be spent on 1 booster and that was the only gold option

Whether this game will be competitive or not I don't know but this is a total different direction for a blizz game

And I assume you don't get to just... choose your cards. There's a starter amount, and the rest you have to buy/earn?

Can someone explain how a collectible card game is pay2win? Is that not how every collectible card game has always been? Why spend the time calling that out about Hearthstone?

There's a base deck you get for each class that contains a bunch of cards. Then by leveling up that character you can earn a few more preset cards. After that you'll need to get packs of cards to get certain cards. Also once you start earning/buying packs of cards you can disenchant ones you don't want which gives you dust, and you can use (some amount of) dust to create any card you want.

I should also mention that right now you get a couple free packs of cards as you play through the first tutorials and quests.

Yes pay2win is a valid criticism for almost every TCGs that ever existed. IMO Blizz should up the gold per win to lessen the criticism.

They are probably just talking about how long it takes to earn gold in the beta. It is next to impossible right now to earn cards outside of buying them. I really doubt that Blizzard will release Hearthstone without improving this however, so while it's productive to raise the issue I think it's a bit premature to get up in arms over.

An example of a ccg that isn't "pay2win" would be the recently released Scrolls. You can buy 6 cards which reset every few days and the starter decks with real money but the rest of the cards are earned through gold.
