They don't start you off with anywhere near enough cards to make reasonable decks (I'm probably also bad at the game but whatevs), and I think it's really dumb that you don't get any gold for losing games. If I lose like 5-6 Hearthstone games in a row I get super frustrated, moreso than I do losing LoL games.

I did have some fun playing arena but eventually got a couple bad runs in a row and ran out of gold to keep playing arena, so that was that.

Until you get some cards, just hope on a bit for the daily and do an arena run if it gives you enough gold.

You might want to look at this, depending on how versed you are in limited CG formats:

Honestly, unless my opponent's luck is in the highest echelons of BS, losing in Hearthstone doesn't feel that frustrating to me. Not having good cards does suck though, its pretty clear Blizzard would prefer you drop 200-300 bucks to fix that issue.

I liked hearthstone initially and now I'm reevaluating it. I think it's.... ok, but whenever I play it and I'm not making joke decks with Monte I kind of wonder why I'm still playing it. I'm running out of jokes decks to make since they won't give me enough of the weird niche cards.

Is the LoL game over? I'm interested to hear why it was such a clusterfuck.

Well, it became a cluster in the middle because a whole bunch of town players were either modkilled or requested a modkill. This really affected the town thread attitude, a lot of people ended up trolling/lurking, and some people were getting butthurt. Some of the arguments went over the top (ad hominem-wise), but most were fine imo. But the atmosphere let a lot of the scum just troll around do whatever for a while.

For whatever reason, they left Koshi alive (Viktor - inventor) the whole game, and his last two inventions really clinched it for town (which is good, cuz his inventions were useless up until then). This combined with some pretty good play by justanothertownie and sandroba led us to victory.

I'd like to think I wasn't utterly useless, but my scumhunting was terrible. Also, in the first few days, I ended up completely preventing VisceraEyes from doing anything useful as Lux (parity cop), which really sucked and set town back quite a bit. Upside is I ended up being killed by scum and not town, so I've got that going for me at least.

You need to have 4 strawmen in a prisoner's dilemma.

I felt really bad about bailing early like I did, but I think it was the right choice. I would have just added the the problems later on. Plus I was swamped with work and finals.

Well, you replaced out, right owb? Replacements are fine in my eyes. There were an extraordinary amount this game, I think, which did make it harder to read people. But it happens.

(I actually had completely forgotten you were in the game lol)

Yeah, it was like Day 1 lol. I felt bad but due to circumstances beyond my control there was no way I would have been able to contribute nearly enough. I told Wave ASAP, sucked though because had it been like 12 hours earlier I could have just backed out before the game started.

I only have 1 gift left to find, and it's only cuz Amazon ran out of stock before it shipped to me. Hoping to get it tonight.

I had a dream people in this thread were calling me an ahole for getting 2 legendary cards in the ~15 packs of cards I have opened so far in Hearthstone. Why are my dreams so lame?

Becuase you're an ahole for getting 2 legendary cards in 15 packs.

I kid, I just couldn't pass up the opportunity.
