Is that Black Appreciation Day? That was the first thing I thought about when you mentioned it a few weeks back, but I dismissed it as a bigot bias on my part.
... it seems pretty dumb as a concept. I mean, not necessarily the idea behind it, but the way it's done, and especially the name. "Black Appreciation"? What? I'd find it a bit insulting.

It's totally ridiculous. I can't help but feel that the real way to deal with a racially charged past is to stop talking about it like we owe people something.

Teams' picks must spell a word! Maybe include bans if it's hard to find idea. Oh, and no champion swaps after picks.

I think I played Chess in my head for like 8 hours before sleeping for like 3, but I feel not tired so there's that. It's supposed to be icy or whatever today, however I don't see any on our weather so that is good.

AS FOR TLLOLOTGDTDGN.....

We're going to make it monthly, last Friday of every month. This Month it'll be on 2/28 and we can nail down a games list in the next 2 weeks or so. Let me know if you can plan around being there :3

Edit: You're prolly bad at Hearthstone because you have played other TCG's and haven't come to the brutal relevancy that Card Advantage rarely matters, and that Board Control is everything. Stop Over Extending, and Start killing his little bastards more often.


meh, when I first started I counted board control and always lost because of card advantage. Card advantage usually wins me games unless I don't have enough mana to play minions early and get overrun but that's a deck/drawing luck issue

board control always gets fuqed by aoe, how do you handle that

I feel a little better about my drinking capabilities or ya'll had way more than me... could have been how long it took me to get 100cs and there wasn't much of my drink left either I guess

May I venture a guess that both board control and card advantage are important to winning!

By not overextending. That's how you handle that. Sit on cards, hold more threats. Play 2 or 3 dudes at a time, but never anymore. After he answers your board, kill his again preferably with more dudes. In EVERY other TCG you don't just see them run cards out there just because, it takes thought and how you want things to go in YOUR favor to win games.

If you're playing mini's just overextend all day, favor wins games.

Not happy about Bitterblossom eh?

I wish I had a lot of the other core cards for mini's. Have the two Divine Favors.

divine favour obviously is a reason why card advantage wouldn't matter but mostly only cixah plays that style

Bitterblossom being back is amazing. UGB Fae inc (Gotta have my Abrupt Decays) Blood Artist + BItterblossom = lolololololol.

Add in the new devotion mechanics and things are going to get quite silly quite quickly.

As for HS, Angry Chicken is bad, stop trying to make it a thing, It's not a thing.

Paladin Mirror means arena for me, and also means autoloss because in my last 5 paladin drafts I haven't had more than one consecrate or truesilver, with most of them I don't get any at all. Somehow a draft with 3 Argent Protector and a Scarlet Crusader ended up giving me 8 wins, with both paladins an autoloss (the 3rd was a Shaman with a ridiculous draft, earth elemental, lava burst, several forked lightnings, bloodlust, 2 rockbiter, hex, feral spirits, etc.).

Relying on a Worgen Infiltrator turn 1 to get a decent start shouldn't be allowed to go so far in arena wtf. ._.

It is allowed, and the biggest reason arena is so ez.

games are ridic easy to snowball off a better start and since most people build shit curves, that means almost every game.
Doesn't even matter if your deck is largely garbage otherwise, getting a good start will mean a win 90% of the times.

Best post in the thread. Here's my money.
