I'll advice you to put the idea of disenchanting him aside, until you have more game knowleadge to fine the best way (for you) to spend 400+ dust on: it could be on 4 rares, 1 epic, lots of uncommon or extra dust for That legendary you know is a good investment. Doomsayer... <The end is comming!!>. This card has it uses but only in really specific decks, you can't throw it in any deck because it will simple not work. The 7 health make its really tanky to kill and it's very threatening when your opponent has value minions that he don't want to lose. It can give you 1 extra turn to live (thanks to the fact that the opponent may attack with all his creature the Doomsayer), it can wipe out the opponents board: a Blizzard and this guy on turn 7 can get pretty nasty. Or you may have a really slow deck and you need to survive the early game pressure, then this guy can shine. Not the best of the epics around but it has more uses than Nozdormu for sure. | ||

Thanks for the response. I am thinking of just holding the Nozdormu until i get 1200 dust, and then making a legendary with it. It doesn't look like a card I'd ever use in a real deck. I spent my first 300 dust making 1x Azure Drake, 1x Argent Commander, and 3 priority commons, so I don't think it was a waste. I also don't see a use for Doomsayer, so again I'll probably DE it when I have enough for a legendary. | ||

Rush decks commonly peak in 1-3 mana consumption, midgame decks tend to focus on 3-5 mana cards, endgame decks can raise the amount of high mana cards by using low mana stallers (i.e. Frost Nova, Ice Lance, Frost Bolt as Mage). | ||

I only play unranked for the quests now, but I feel like I'm often playing players with far too good decks. It seems like everyone I play in unranked has their class legendary and a few other legendaries and I'm using my decks that are quickly constructed and I am missing 30% of the cards for a proper deck. At one point I laddered unranked with my main paladin deck and I think it's MMR got pushed far too high and now it doesn't decrease. I lose like 70% of my unranked games, and win around 70% of my ranked games. I feel like it should be more like sc2 where I am pushed quickly to 50% winrate. | ||

I was wondering why they didn't put individual MMRs on each class. In SC2, for example, you have MMRs for each bracket (1v1, 2v2, etc). When you first start, you play vs bronzies. If you are, say, masters 1v1 already, your beginning MMRs for the other brackets are also higher. I would think it's pretty simple to implement in Hearthstone. | ||

I would think it's pretty simple to implement in Hearthstone. Well SC2 has the same problem though. Three races (a sort of 4th if you count random) yet only one 1v1 ranking available per account. I agree that having a separate MMR for each class would be sensible. | ||

So now we're stuck here waiting for the other to concede. Anyone else have this happen? Yes, it happens. Should be a known bug by now. | ||

I think draws are the most important thing in arena and I have little to no experience in card games so its very hard for me to make a good deck... | ||

I don't think its broken, it's just casual friendly. I rarely arena, and notice the rankings increase by just how many games you play. In constructed you can breeze through and hit masters with not many games played. You get to see your reward sooner since you're playing well. The opposite of that which I believe is, the more you play even with a 50% rate. You will slowly rank up. Everyone wants the good feeling that goes along with being rewarded. That extra star, that promotion means you're getting better so to speak. Stuck at 50% forever but win 2-3 games in a row, have a star. While most sound like they are 3 star masters, I have a feeling the mmr at that ranking is incredibly large. It will be hard to find someone with more than 200 constructed wins not masters. | ||
