DOMS and recovery are completely separate.
Truth is: We actually have no fucking idea what DOMS is. For the longest time it was believed its some buildup of lactic acid in the muscles. That has been disproven a couple years ago. Right now it is believed its micro tears in the muscle fibers. (Unless it has changed again, I'm not up to date on that stuff anymore)
Anyways. 1 rest day should be enough for you to recover from sparring, especially if you sleep and eat enough. So no worries about that.
Now the real funny thing: Training the muscle WHILE IT HAS DOMS actually helps with the pain. No fucking joke. Again, nobody knows why. So, you really should go to training ^_^

Yea DOMS are freaking weird. I echo this and also say just do some stretches each day. Find that helps a lot with DOMS.
The real thing to look out for from what I've read is any kind of sharp pain. The dull ache is find to work through.

I always use the following "guideline" when it comes to SHARP pain (acute pain while doing something):
If I stop the movement and it goes away immediately or within a few minutes: Everything is fine, continue. Pay extra attention to form, if applicable.
If it goes away after a good nights sleep, OR if it becomes less and less and is gone after max 3 days: Everything is fine, but try to figure out if you did something wrong, and find another way of doing things (another exercise, for example, for the same muscle group).
If it doesnt get BETTER after a good nights sleep, or is still present after 3 days: Go see a doctor.
I never got injured bad enough that I needed to go to the doc, but after a while I figured out that I should not do butterfly-type of movements with any significant weight... (left shoulder hurts baaaaaaaad).

Golden Rares: Infest, Demented Frostcaller, Klaxxi Amber-weaver, that Grizzly thing, Corrupted Healbot

Basically I used up all my luck on a couple triple rare packs, and I opened jack shit apart from 4-5 epics.

Alright, I'm not gonna lie, Whispers of the Old Gods is fun. Thought I was done with this game, but now I'm considering buying packs...
If I hadn't opened Golden Vek'lor in one of my free packs, I probably wouldn't have kept playing
|
I have to admit that standard is more fun than I thought it would be. At least in casual decks have barely crystalized so you basically never know what you're going up against, there are only a few aggro shaman tryhards.
|
Evolve Shaman is so neat atm. Definitely want to play around with that one, it's like casino mage but way cooler.

I really want to get more of those aggro mid-range Shaman cards. I've always liked that class but it's really never been good as far as I can recall.
It's chaos out there. I really want to see what kinds of weird metas develop.
Also Forbidden Shaping is hilarious.
Edit: Even funnier than Forbidden Shaping is watching 6ah attempt to get Yogg'saron to work.

Was gonna answer the DOMS but Celial got it.

Just been playing Beastmode Hunter and its preeeeetty good. Got the makings of midrange shaman coming together. Some patron shenanigans may be in order with Blood to Ichor. Part of me wants to try it in warlock with spreading madness lol. Don't really seem to have much else going from these pulls.

thx guys
Guess I'll go get beaten up again :p
|
Ugh losing Shielded Minibot, Muster, and Zombie Chow makes the early game for Paladins of all types freaking hard to play.
|
You mean it doesn't make it as free, powerful and braindead as before?
C'mon, hate on Rogue all you want, but you can't be taken seriously when you're a paladin player. 
How would you get the patron to stick for at least a turn before you can start spamming them though Mordek?

You guys built the deck wrong then. lol
If you're playing with 4 epidemic cards you are supposed to split the deck into four piles, and an epidemic card, and then shuffle those piles. Then, you stack the piles on top of each other.

Same thing, about all Paladin was "vomit your mana-efficient hand on the board on curve", that's about as interesting as Siege Rhino.

Yep, I realized our error  It had been many moons. I think I actually split them out and then shuffled the whole deck.
@Alaric, I'm not sure what you mean, its the same story as current patron with whirlwind, inner rage. You just can't do the Death's Bite on 4 into patron on 5. It's probably not as good but like I said may try it.

I never thought I'd see the day that Shaman was the scariest deck for me on ladder o.O
|
Oh, right! I'm dumb, I confused it with Spreading Madness for some reason. I'm super exhausted today and keep sleeping under 6 hours/day so that's my bad.

Most classes lost their early board presence. Basically unless you're Shaman or Hunter the game has slowed down considerably.
Which is why I was absolutely wrecking fools with a "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater" ramp druid.
+ Show Spoiler +- 2*Innervate
- 2*Raven Idol
- 2*Wild Growth
- 2*Wrath
- 2
 arnassus Aspirant
- 2*Nourish
- 2*Naga Sea Witch
- Cairne

- 1*Ancient of War (only have the 1)
- Chromaggus
- Ragnaros
- Arch-Thief Rafaam

- Cenarius
- Nefarian

- Ysera
After I got my WoG packs I took out Geddon and Emperor for 2*Mire Keepers, but I basically walked all over everything I encountered because basically all non-aggro decks right now have crappy board presence for the first 4 turns, and that's all this deck needs to start putting down ridiculous threats. I would have beat an Aggro Shaman as well but I totally mindfarted a play and rekt myself.

I don't know. I'm not having much success with YET, but Doodz Pally feels good with Selfless Hero, Charge/DS guy, and DS buffer shield + all that other stuff. Even that new +1/+2 feels nice.
Edit: it should go without saying that I'm bad at this game. This probably sucks but it IS fun.
