After that I started to play some ranked matches and i've noticed that many of the people I face have many rare cards and they are just way better than most of the cards I currently have. How do i get these rare cards? Do you unlock through ranked? Leveling a hero? Arena? After doing the practice stuff when I first started I got enough gold to buy 2 decks and got 2 rare cards..... is that the only way? Pretty much by playing the game (Arena rewards or Constructed every 3 wins) and the daily quests you get. It's to be expected given how long people had since beta to obtain cards. | ||

Depends on how far you mean by shifting. Seems like the flavor of the month is exactly that, changes every month. But Miracle rogue has been top deck for a few seasons now, but since so many are playing it, a lot of people are making decks spesifically to counter them..and then people are making decks to counter that again (Miracle beats warriros who betas mages who beats miracle..roughly). If you want to keep up with the meta, I suggest watching the top streamers. They will usually be experimenting with new decks as well as how to beat them. | ||

I kind of wish it was a 3/3 instead of 2/4 tbh, but still. | ||

I cannot think of a deck it would make more sense to have it in (complete lack of 4 mana cards, needs card draw to function). I kind of wish it was a 3/3 instead of 2/4 tbh, but still. No. You can get card draws in other, cheaper, ways. Coldlight Oracle is widely used. Some also run Loot Hoarder and/or Novice Engineer in their decks, but thats a bit outdated right now. You might not have many 4 drops as Miracle, but you have a ton of 1, 2 and 3 drops which can be combined to do something useful. And if you have the coin, you'll usually want to be coining either Gadgetzan Auctioneer or Azure Drake on turn 4. Card draw is nice, but there's just too many other useful cards to put a mediocre 2/4 for 4 in your deck. | ||

Turn 4 can be very awkward for Miracle, there's no denying it. Although I'll admit that Gnomish is kind of weak still. Should be something like a 3/4 if Blizzard followed the Azure Drake formula. | ||

You only have coin 50% of the time, you're often forced to use it earlier, and ideally you want to save coin for Gadgetzan anyway (not coin him out). That gives the rare case where you draw exactly Azure Drake by turn 4, go second, and still have coin. Turn 4 can be very awkward for Miracle, there's no denying it. Although I'll admit that Gnomish is kind of weak still. Should be something like a 3/4 if Blizzard followed the Azure Drake formula. I think you missed half of my points there. My whole arguement was that there's usually always something you can do. Very rarely have I ever sat there and only daggered and passed on turn 4. Filling turn 4 with a poor 4 drop does not help the case of you wanting to survive up to turn 5, which is where Miracle comes into its own. A 4 drop you might want to consider, which I've seen some top decks run, is Sen'jin Shieldmasta. Its mainly to get an edge in mirror matchups, but its a nice 4 drop that helps with board control. | ||

Since Hearthstone is so new, I haven't been able to find much in the way of written rules for a tournament, and would like help! If you know of a list of common rules and regulation, could you post a link to them? Thanks! | ||

Im trying to figure out how many early game cards i need, but i suck terribly at maths. Lets say i need to draw one of 4 cards in my first 2 turns, or have the coin, what is my probability there. What about one of 6 cards or the coin if i dont have the coin I will keep 1 out of the 3 cards and mulligan the rest thanks | ||

Can someone tell me how to buy packs on another region with real money? Blizzard support told me it cannot be done but I know it's possible because I see many popular streamers who did it. Any help is much appreciated! Thank you! | ||

I haven't done it, so I might be off here. .but why should this be a problem? Just enter your visa information when prompted, or is there somekind of error in place when you try? | ||

I contacted Blizzard support and they told me that I cannot buy packs with real money for regions other than NA. Which is fine if I only play in NA but I also want to play in EU and Asia too! | ||

Yes. The card states that it gives charge when summoning, not that your other units below 3 dmg have charge. Which means the units retain their charge even if buffed. | ||

Because I've seen popular streamers buying packs in multiple regions and when I actually try to google the solution, it seems nobody else has asked this question before... | ||

Excludos speaks the truth in addition, if you play Bloodsail Raider with a dmg buff (say you have Fiery War Axe equipped) it'll get charge first | ||

This suprised me but he wants like 5 or 6 I think which I thought was too few for arena. Massan also wrote about his views on TL somewhere in his arena guide. | ||
