And I tried playing mage many times. Any tips? For me hunter is the most reliable class in arena, followed by warrior and warlock. By the way, since the UTH buff I didn't get this card even once. I've found and heard the exact opposite... hunter is the most unreliable class to draft in arena. It's very easy to get screwed with none of the premium class cards and get stuck with a lot of junk. | ||

Likewise, had I drawn some decent cards I probably would have gotten at least 10 wins because having three UTH is just insanely strong if your other cards aren't duds. Lots of classes have the same issue. Draw no Swipes as a Druid and you're gonna have a tough time. Draw 3-4 and, well, enjoy your 12 wins. The difference is that Druid can still be strong even with a bad draft because the class cards work so well on their own. Hunter class cards... not so much. | ||

I ran it for awhile and replaced it with freezing trap. | ||

Also miracle Rogue is gaining a lot of popularity lately, Flare is very useful against Conceal. | ||

Also I found out I really don't care about health enough. Just went 7 - 3 with a deck that should have gone 10+ because I would attack with my weapon too much. too bad | ||

There are a lot of cards that *should* be rare by nature of the effect they provide, but they are basic so making them rare and taking them out of the standard card pool would affect what cards are available to new players. Although the appropriate intermediate solution would be to keep the basic cards the same but assign rarities to all the basics for the purpose of arena. | ||

Though Shaman removal is fine. Lightning Bolt, Hex, Stormforged Axe, Rockbiter Weapon, plus more situational removal like Earth Shock and Forked Lightning. | ||
