Yeah that's the worst, when you mulligan a bad hand into a worse hand and you just almost lose on the spot in you don't draw 2's and 3's from the top.

As for the spamming 'Well Played' : you can silence your opponent by rightclicking on him. I do it every game just to be sure and because the emotes don't really add anything.

Yaaay brag time!
Still shit bad at arena, but managed to squeak out 7 wins after falling 1-2 with warrior.
Grabbed a Snake trap and a Golden Harrison Jones, so I get a free Sylvanas! Yay!
Also thanks to a Golden Sea Giant I almost will have enough for Rag too!

@Tal: Grats on the first 12-x win! Feels good doesn't it

Just had a 11-3 arena run as a Druid:

[image loading]
not shown: 2x Innervate, 1 Worgen Infiltrator

I didn't think I'd get to 11 wins, but those 2 Ancient of Wars really did some work. Had no chance in the games I lost though. One game was lost because I got behind after my opponent killed my 2 drop with his Mad Bomber. The other game my opponent had an awnser for everything, including 2x SI7: Agents.

Also got my first legendary out of the pack I won. It was a... Baron Geddon. Oh well, not exactly the best legendary but it's a start.

EDIT: best game was versus a mage, where he/she was forced to use their double Pyroblast on my double Acient of War!


Feels like I am the king of the universe. Which is a bit silly, but there you go.

Those S17 Agents are really hard to deal with. Just Rogue in general, if they get a good hand I feel like it's impossible to get anything on the table, and they just roll over you. Congrats on the 11 wins
It is what you read when you don't have to that determines what you will be when you can't help it.

Just went 0-3 twice in a row. I just felt helpless the whole time. I guess rogue decks with 4 assassins blade's are bad. TT

One or two is more than enough I think, no point getting your face smashed by killing 3+ health as they've probably at least 2 attack most of the time... You end up dying >_<
Assassin's blade armor is like what ? 4 ? So say you're hitting minions that has 2 attack only : you're already taking 8 damage for that alone. Worth it ? Probably. 2 of them ? Well... If you're willing to give up half of your life then I guess go for it...
When you're playing that blade you're already spending 5 mana, so most of the time you're probably not taking any board advantage by using it... At best it's 50/50.
4 of them is just overkill I think...

Wow. I just seriously drafted this deck. Only thing missing is Feral Spirit and Flametongue Totems, which I've enjoyed in the past.

+ Show Spoiler +

Ancestral Healing
Earth Shock
Lightning Bolt
Rockbiter Weapon
Abusive Sergeant
Young Priestess
Stormforged Axe x2
Faerie Dragon
Hex
Lightning Storm
Demolisher

Cult Master
Dread Corsair
Sen'jin Shieldmasta
Spellbreaker x2
Azure Drake
Earth Elemental x2
Faceless Manipulator
Frostwolf Warlord
Gurubashi Berserker
Stampeding Kodo
Fire Elemental x2

Sure, like five or so questionable picks, but so many good picks that can run away with the game. I hope this works as well as I'm expecting...

Went to 12 wins with a Paladin deck. I had no consecrate and thought it would be a problem but actually not at all! Most of the job was done by 3X Argent Protector (such an early game advantage!), 2X Equality and 1X Avenging Wrath. I think Cult Master became my favourite "draw" card.

Ugh. My arena today is not going so fun.

Game #1: I won
Game #2: Mage vs Mage. The game lasts about half an hour, ending with us both on fatigue. He starts taunting and "playing" with me at the end; playing minions but not attacking with them, so I die to fatigue.
Game #3: Really terrible priest. He gets a great start, but then completely overextends on the board come flamestrike time (he has SEVEN GUYS on <=4 health) and starts taunting me, thinking he's won. Totally dumb, totally arrogant. Unfortunately for me, he HAS won, because I wasn't offered any AOE of any kind and so have no flamestrikes in deck. It's so frustrating to lose vs someone taunting you when you know they're a dumbass and they should lose, but you can't punish them for it.

In both game 2 and 3, just squelch the ooponent by rightclicking on them. If they take forever, just alt tab and do something else. This is why I play in windowed mode; so I can browse TL while my opponent is busy taunting me or thinking for 5 minutes on turn 2.

2-3 for my first Shaman run (didn't want to go with hunter or warrior... yeah, great choice there). RNGesus decided to stick it up my ass with opponents dropping 3 Swipes+Ragnaros, or 3 Hex, or having a perfect draw with single target, AoE removals, big creatures, some defenders of argus for the taunts, and drawing perfectly for their curve (or the removal they need for the situation) every single turn but two.

Doesn't help when my starting hand ends up being fire elemental, flametongue totem, the spell that costs 3 mana and ooze. Against a Paladin so I can't even keep the ooze. Followed by 3 turns of drawing 5-drops.

...
At least I got a Faerie Dragon out of the pack. --"



Went back in, Warlock deck. Ended up with 6 1-drop because I wanted to pad my curve and the draft gave me less than 8 2-drop total (2 of them were succubi so I didn't take them). I think I have 5 2-drops in? Including spells.
Yup. Meanwhile, first match is a warlock mirror where he drops Tinkmaster Overspark turn 4.
Oh, and he's got 4 (at least) murlocs too so he can start comboing.
Oh, and because that still wasn't enough he also has a good curve with a fuckton of 2-3 drops, venture co., stormwind champion, and 2 rares on top of that. Dude. Just go fuck yourself. Do it on behalf of RNGesus because he gave you as much sweet sweet loving as he gave gravel to me. >_>

Just 5-3: little dust, 65 gold and a sweet pyro from the pack. It's fine for me.

I think I'm finally doing better at drafting.

drafted a 9-3 earlier, and another 9-3 after(with 1 DC loss at huge advantage). Couple more runs at this rate and I'll have enough gold stockpiled to arena as much as I have time for.

My first Arena run was 3-3, don't know what hero any more. Then I went to the forums and read about how you have to take your draft seriously, mana curve and playing strategies. "well, didn't look too hard to me the last time" I thought and made another arena, drafting away with a warrior with no strategy and got crushed 0-3.

So I played constructed for a longer time, and finally started another arena today (my 3rd). Got a Mage, which I feel very comfortable with from constructed. I tried to get a good balance between spells and minions. I had a good start up to 4-1, then the last game I get only spell cards in the first 3 rounds and I'm hesitant to play them because I think I might get a better chance to use them with a +1 spellpower on the board. I don't, and lose the game because I can't get rid of the enemies minions later on. Another lesson learned.

I'm 4-2 right, will play again tomorrow or so.
