So because everyone looove theorystone, what if Pagle drew cards at the START of every turn, giving the opponent one turn to deal with him before he started fishing? To offset this, he would have a 2/3 or even 100% fish chance.

Thoughts?

I don't think that change would need offsetting

Haha, neither do I. When I see turn 2 pagle, or coin pagle, I usually have to just pray to the RNG gods.

Nat Pagle could use some adjustment, but slamming it with a nerf bat is a poor way to balance a game. They did the same thing with SC2 and WoW. Both became homogeneous and boring as piss. I actually don't have a clever way of fixing the card, but I don't want nerfs to be their only way of balancing (why not make Fireball a rare to help Arena for example).

So does anyone know if Kripp actually just sits and plays games all day long? Enough income from Twitch/Youtube I suppose?

Don't you pretty much have all the cards? Let's see your decks, but perhaps it can also be your play.

Its my play. I got to rank 8 playing mid-range warrior. But ever since I made my other decks Ive been testing them in ranked and Ive been losing a lot. Some losses are justified fairly, but other times its completely cause of luck with draws, and when that happens I tilt really hard. And when I tilt really hard, I make high-risk low-reward plays, and whenever I do that, I ALWAYS end up behind and losing and then I tilt even more.

I dont think Ive ever been this upset at a game before.

Ive neglected my studies and sleep all weekend. I just need a break to compose myself and focus on real life stuff for now.

I don't remember the numbers from Twitch ads (something really low, but if you stack enough viewers it can get to be somewhat adequate). Aside from that, I'm not sure if YT really gives him all that much considering he's not sponsored by anyone (never see Kripp doing an ad for anyone).

However, I think those 2 combined- especially considering his massive Twitch numbers- is enough for a simple living. The guy barely does anything: drinks OJ, eats simple vegan food, pays for nice computers, and that's about it. He could easily get by with minimal income given his lifestyle.

Well he isn't streaming during the morning/afternoon hours (EST), so perhaps he actually does something... Was just curious.

wish I recorded the sequence but looking for some strategy advice for a sequence that occurred in Arena

I ended up losing to a Mage that played 2 Pyroblasts in a row winning with 4 health left

before the Mage played the first Pyroblast, I think I had 3 creatures in the board and I think the Mage board was clear

I think I had 2 Spellbreakers in my hand along with 1 to 2 other cards. if I played a Spellbreaker before the Mage played the first Pyroblast, I would have won because the Mage was at 4 HP when he won with the second Pyroblast.

however, I didn't play the Spellbreaker because I was playing around Flamestrike

if my HP is in range to be Pyroblasted or something like 2x Fireball or 1x Frostbolt + Fireball 2 turns in a row, should I have just kept trying to put on pressure with more creatures instead of playing around Flamestrike?

I guess risking a card that could win me the game the next turn is worth the risk of Flamestrike becoming massive value for the opponent? not sure if being results oriented

my character class was Rogue if that matters

I have 600 gold from 2 successful arena runs + 100win achievement (300g)

How much is too much gold? Should I blow 400g on packs and bank the rest on arena runs?

On another point:
Only got 2 packs out of it with no great pulls and the first arena run i went 12-2 and I got total shit -_-...

Never buy a pack. Always arena even if you hate arena with every inch of your body like me.

Ive only played Hearthstone for 2 weeks now, and I only went straight into constructed play and only played 1 arena (the free entry one). With all the built up stress of constructed play I finally used some of my gold to do arenas, and it is a HUGE stress reliever.

I have zero anxiety and I dont have to worry as much. With the drafting I dont have to worry about which deck to play against or how to play against it. You basically worry about your plays 1 turn at a time, Im normally used to thinking 3-4 turns ahead in constructed.

I also didnt realize that having a 5+ win streak(?) in arena was self sustaining (gold wise). I wish I knew about this earlier and I prolly would of saved a lot of money trying to get more cards.

I think it's the following

5 wins + quest gets you enough gold for 1 arena entry per day

6 wins gets you enough gold for another arena entry as long as you don't get screwed with one of the rewards being dust or a card

7 wins gets you enough gold for another arena entry even if one of the rewards is dust or a card

6 can be enough but you might need to win 3-6 contstructed games for that 10-20g just to top it up.

I keep my gold floating above 1000g so I never have to worry about not being able to arena. Between my infrequency of playing and quests it's easily self-sustaining. Any time I get above 1150 I just buy packs.

Sleeping/making his YT video/getting falafel. Other than that, I have no idea.

It depends how often you play.

The thing is, while Arena is better cards/gold to buying packs, it's not really better cards/time because of how many games you have to play to complete an arena run and how you can only have one arena going at a time.

It's actually pretty reasonable to have a playing pattern that's infrequent enough that if you only spent gold on Arena's you'd just keep stockpiling gold and never spend it because you don't play often enough for Arenas to spend all your gold.
