Any idea about when we can expect the next adventure? Has there been any information released? Trying to figure out when I would want to start saving gold and accept that I won't get all the legendaries.

After having my winrate just about half overnight and dropping from 6 to 9 (which is probably mostly due to metagame shihft and tilt, but that's not important), I started to think about the average level on the ladder at different moments in the season. Basically, I came to two possible explanations of when the ladder is softest, and I haven't been playing long enough to know which of the two is likely correct. Could you guys give me some input?

1) At the start of the month, all the good players reset to ranks 15-20, so for the first few weeks climbing the ladder is going to be very hard. Then, after the initial rush of very active people getting to Legend or at least the higher ranks, the ladder (at least sub 5) becomes noticable easier. Most people dick around halfway through the season and play different decks (or not at all), so halfway through the season would be easiest to climb. Then, a week'ish before the end of the season, people go back to tryharding to get higher chests/last minute Legend, so climbing becomes harder again.

2) Instead of there being a lull mid season, due to win streaks people naturally gravitate towards the higher ranks. The longer the season goes on the more good people get Legend, and as the season progresses the ladder becomes easier below the non dumpster Legend ranks.

Thoughts?

In my experience its more 2 except for the very last day when people do all tryhard for legend if they aren't there yet.

I think mid season is easier at ranks 20-5, tho 1-4 ranks are still difficult. Never got where opponent concedes on turns 1 2 3.

I traded my Sylvanas into my opponent's, which played it after I did mine.He also had a Twilight Drake on the board, which my Sylvanas mind controlled for me. However, when the turn ended, my opponent's Sylvanas' deathrattle activated and he took the drake back. I do not understand how this happened. I thought my opponent's Sylvanas' deathrattle should not have activated at all, since when I killed it with my own Sylvanas, I had no other minions on the board. The deathrattle only activated after I ended my turn.

Can someone explain what is going on? This really seems stupid to me that the deathrattle does not immediately activate when the Sylvanas is dead.

Deathrattles resolve in the order the minions were played. Yours resolved as it was played first, then your opponent's. It was nice of you to provide that info even though we could have told you that was the case. Not that I mind answering but this exact situation is probably posted in here ten times One of those Hearthstone things you have happen once then you remember it from now on.

If Shifter Zerus changes into Alarm-o-Bot and I play it, then it swaps with another minion from hand, will it stay as Alarm-o-Bot or shift to a different minion?

Yes, it will be an Alarm-o-Bot

In the same way that if you play a transformed Zerus, let's say as an SI:7, and then bounce it to your hand, the card in hand is SI:7, not Zerus.

Will it change to some other minion next turn if left in hand?

Play one game with each class while unlocking heroes against the inkeeper. Then play 2 more games with one of the classes to get it to level 4. Don't bother modifying any of the decks except the class you'll play to level 4. Aside from that, just make sure to trade some minions and play some extra cards if the game is going quick, or you might not get to level 2.

It's really annoying having to wait people with 3 cards in hand yet still roping to decide what they are going to play. Games take too long to finish for my taste. A single game can take freaking 15minutes. I sometimes get tilted because of this, I really get bored. I tried listening to podcast/watching something in the background but that distracts me a while later and I cannot focus on the game. Any tips?

Honestly - if you're playing against a player like that...it's out of your hands. If they're gonna rope, they're gonna rope and there is nothing you could do about it. That probably does not sound very helpful - but it's something I keep repeating to myself. If you cannot help it, at all, if it's gonna happen, no matter what...why stress out so much? Some chill background music could be alright - pribably won't be as distracting as the podcasts. I think the moment you realise you start waiting too long and zoning out from the game, you'll start to focus more on the music and enjoy it for a little bit, and then get back in once you're up...maybe that'll help?

I am looking for an answer to this myself, sometimes, I replace starting hand cards in 1 sec, tho opponent takes good 1 minute to do so, and he goes first, so I would have to wait for more than 2 minutes to press end turn.
So I do something else in meantime, check 9gag or something, come back and it's already turn 5 6 7. I will have to install some alarm program tho if opponent ropes every turn, it would be annoying to set alarm 15 times in a game.

I have never tried hearthstone deck tracker programs, do they have some sound alarm when my turn starts?

Is the Warrior class ever going to nerfed or clamed down? They have like 25 different unbeatble decks right now and quite frankly its making the game a miserable mess. They have unlimited armor, cheap removal, sick synergy and everything else. Thats why the sheep are clogging up ladder with them and it makes palying anything else almost impossible to enjoy.

Please do something about this crap. Thanks.

It's still a balance whine... and your guess is as good as ours for what changes the next expansion will bring.

Maybe it'll die like Miracle did when GvG game out, or they'll buff it like Freeze Mage has been each expansion.
