as there are no counterspells in HS it's hard to suggest a very close style, but I would probably say a rogue deck with a lot of removals would be the closest.

actually there are counter spells..[image loading]

Maybe a Mage Freeze/Counter/Secrets but ye dunno mage feels more like red deck with all the direct damage
xD but you can see the direct damage as a counterspell since there are no instants in HS direct damage is the only other way to remove cards i guess, and you also got secrets that can kinda work like the instants on preventing damage and countering

for example: http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/16488-secret-service

Weapons dont count as spells right? (magic mentality affecting me here...) um...doesnt that mean preparation is nearly useless as a card, the only spells 3 or higher are sprint and headcrack...oh and assassinate it just seems like such a tiny pool or cards, i really hope there are more rogue spells or even neutral spells to eventually come out.
nvm..there are 5 total just i seemed to forget the other two cause they suck "vanish and fan of knifes"

Does anyone know if Alexstrasza's battlecry registers as damage or a heal?

For example, if my hero is at 5, and I have a Lightwarden in play. I cast Alexstrasza to set myself to 15. Is that gain of 10 health a heal? Would it proc Lightwarden?

I wish they would at least add a few more emotes. I need a better way to display my frustration or amusement. Just a LOL and a 'You gotta be kidding me' would be cool.


Agreed, they at least need:

-Cry

The keyword 'Heal' must be used. Alex 'Sets' the health.

No, and if you cant it when the deck is empty it doesnt do anything

Actually it does count as a heal atm, but devs have stated it is unintended. But if a priest uses Alexstrasza's on themself while at or below 7 health with a soulpriest out it will kill them.

Anything without the oval picture frame is considered a spell (eg. Blade Fury, Headcrack, Betrayal, Eviscerate, Fan of Knives, Shiv, Sprint, Vanish, Assassinate, and Sap being 2+ mana cost). Also remember that Rogue cards usually have the "combo" mechanic which makes Preparation even better.

Interesting. They really need to a do a once-through clean-up/clarification on the text on the cards.

I love playing Blue control in Magic the Gathering, which hero would be the closest to this play style?


Generalizing off of class cards and ability, most of the Classes play like Dual Colors.

From my observations:
Rogue - Red/Black
Hunter - Red/Green
Mage - Red/Blue
Warlock - Red/Black
Priest - White/Black
Druid - Green/White
Warrior - Red/White
Paladin - Red/White
Shaman - Red/Green

I hope you like Red (Direct damage & Haste) because it's everywhere (Removal, Weapons, Charge)

Then there is a broad variety of Neutral minions that lets you add another "color" to a class, ie turning Priest into a UWB deck, Mage into RUW (American!), and Shaman into RUG. This isn't literal but there are similarities.
Slice like a goddamn hammer.

Can anyone link to good class-specific arena drafting guides (non-video format)? I feel like I have a good handle on a couple of the classes, but could use some more guidance on others. Right now I'm looking at drafting a druid deck. I've done well with druid before, but I don't want to get halfway into a draft and not know things like:

How many starfires is too many?

Is mark of nature/ any good? 4 stats for 3 mana doesn't seem all that great. Mark of the wild seems more worth its cost.

How many wraths is too many?

Is claw worth taking?

When is innervate worth taking?

Do I take force of nature if I haven't drafted anything to combo with it? (cult mater, flesheating ghoul, etc.) Seems pretty solid anyway... maybe count it against my "too many starfires" count?

Am I overthinking this? =P

I will try to watch some draft videos from Trump etc. when I get a chance, but something in text is more convenient when I'm not at my computer (which is time I'd rather spend PLAYING hearthstone.)

Yeah, there was another wipe since then. My last game was October 10th which was well after the big reset. Perhaps if you don't play for X amount of days you get reset? That seems like a really terrible decision on Blizzard's part.
