But ive been wondering how do constructed players go about making gold (3 games for 10 gold seems soooo slow)

3 games for 10 gold feels really good actually imo. You spam enough games they add up pretty quickly. Before the big patch it was 5 wins for 5 gold~

ah XD i guess~~~ it probably feels slow to me because i only play ladder games for the daily quest and it ends being like 10 gold, but when i do an arena run i can definitely feel the increase when i click those boxs and :O moniesss!
But that still doesnt answer how constructed players make decks (from scratch) they gotta arena run for the dust right?
would you be happy if it was 3wins gives 10 gold and 5 dust? that way a hardcore constructed ladder player would also be able to make his decks


I think most 'hardcore' constructed players have spent real $$ for packs. I've heard of some cases where the player dumps all gold into packs, doing zero arena runs. Whether that's efficient or not I'm not sure~

ahh XD i kinda wanna buy that 40 pack thing and have fun opening all of them XD hahahaha, and i'll get to do it again after it really comes out, though i better decide quick before beta ends and i missed out on that golden card u get from buying from the store with real money...but i also gotta save up for when the TL team shirt restocks...so many choices lol

@Shock710: It's as you say, you can have the cards you need by buying packs (I've seen people with 30k, 15k gold: you make the maths on how much money that is ).

The fastest way to get cards/dust is by winning arenas (6+), as long as you don't go always 0-3 playing arena is the better choice than getting a pack for 100g. You can make the 50 gold difference with the dust/gold the arena gives you.

Remember that arena has a chance to give you a random card togheter with the other prizes (and for what my experience has been, the chances for it to be golden are really good*).

*I'm not talking about the golden card you get at 9 wins. And also it' may just have been me and my luck, but considering out of 50+ packs I've opened only 2 had legendaries... I think my luck is a non factor on the golden cards

For a game that is FTP, the amount of gold you get for 3 wins is really nice. Pre-patch, as mentioned, 5 gold for 5 wins was a long grind and I still thought It was fair ^^"


And the thing is that every now and then you'll end up profiting even from a 1-3 run or something. One of those 1-3 runs netted me a legendary, an epic and a rare from the prize deck. I'd say that for sure was worth it.


What? That's not possible. If you're talking about the pack you got... than that could happen with a pack you purchased as well -__-

Reading through this thread and I have come to the conclusion that no one has actually ever lost rank only gained?

A bug in the system, not true or Blizzard hasn't activated any demotions yet?!

What do you mean? I thought the only limititation is that there is always at least one rare in every pack, and in the one I got there happened to be an epic and a legendary instead of two commons.

You could just spend real $$ for a pack or 2 for the Beta Gift According to the information out there right now there isn't going to be another wipe, so whatever you purchase now will most likely just be brought over to release.

You can't get demoted, but there's an active hidden MMR working that controls how you get promoted~

My friend got demoted from Masters 2 down to Diamond 1, but it took him a really long loss streak to do so. It was also instant, not gradually.

Yes but that doesn't really help the arena argument. You just got lucky opening the pack you got from arena but you could just be as lucky opening a pack you bought for 100g.

Is there no use to get your hero past level 10 (done in play mode) ? You dont get epic/legendary cards any more after that ? Why is there lvl 40 etc then ?

How does arena work - I mean there are random 3 heros and cads - is it linked to your play mode deck ?
Somethings are just worth fighting for

After level 10 you get golden class-specific basic cards. The cards are the same ones you earned while leveling the class to level 10, but golden. At the moment the levels seem to only show how much you've played a certain class.

In arena you choose one of the three classes available and draft a deck for it. You'll be shown three cards from which you pick one and the other two disappear. Then you get a new set of three cards and again pick one of them, this is repeated until you have a deck of 30 cards. In arena there is no restriction of having multiple copies of the same card so you may have for example five Swipes, whereas in the Play mode you could only have two in a deck. Also your level, or the cards that you own do not have any effect on what cards you'll be given for the draft.

Then you play with the deck you've drafted until you've lost three games or won nine. At the end you'll be given prizes: gold and dust and a new card pack, also instead of one of the dust or gold packages you may get an extra card. The deck you've drafted is then gone, the next time you enter the arena you draft a whole new deck.

Another peculiarty of arena is that in your FIRST, 15 and LAST (30) pick you will always get a rare or better card (you can never get a common in this 3 picks). For all the other picks you may get w/e rarity on the cards (commons cards have a higher chance than others).

And levels are for vanity or comestic purposes. At level 60 you get a golded portrait of your hero (not sure if it's implemented atm).

Has anyone tried the card "deal 5 dmg to all except Ysera" when there are more than 1 Yseras on the board (say another one is from your opponent that was transformed from faceless manipulator)? Do all of them get protection from the dmg?

Also if I control Ysera that was originally faceless manipulator, and played the dream card "return minion to hand" on it, do I get faceless or Ysera back?

Is the game really slow for other EU players? It is pretty much impossible to play and it sucks.

Either you lost a lot of games on your way up or they might be having system issues atm. It took me two games/wins to go from d2 to d3, but I had only lost 1 or 2 games up until that point.

I've heard they are having a lot of issues today. New players aren't able to play the tutorial, thus aren't able to get their deck so may just be server issues.

So opponent didn't end his turn, was stuck saying his lines like "I wonder...", the timer never ran out. Safe to say it's a disconnect on my side? Bug?

Whatever it is, lost me an arena match I might have won...

Edit: Ah... exited the game, now can't log back in. Same issue I had a few days earlier. Wonder how this match is going to be rated... even though I have no high hopes :/
