cause it's a blizzard game Kappa

I suppose it is pretty sterile when compared to other CCGs. I'm not too knowledgeable. Prolly an unfair assessment, but I found Magic to be dumb. The small group I played with played (printed, proxy) legacy decks so it always got out of hand and very counter heavy.

Seems like luck gets brought up a lot. I guess that's what I like about it though. Learning hero/deck potential doesn't take a ton of studying, and the RNG keeps situations interesting. The top players I see streaming play pretty differently so it's far from figured out. 'Slong as they release packs often enough, it'll prolly blow up huge when it gets on to iOS/Android.

Edit: Username is AlvinRow; beware, I'm super noob and spam hero emotes.

Edit 2: Oh, I also wanted to talk about the interface. It's soo good. Everything on screen gives feedback on click or hover, and every card or target the opponent is hovering over/clicking on is also displayed so you can kinda see their thought process.

I like dr00d and shammy the most so far.

I'ts the juiciest card game I've ever played, I wish it had more stuff to play with, like clicking the little constructions.

I'm more of a hunter guy, rogue is cool too, priest is overpowered, and mages are assholes.

lost vikings was a very cool puzzler too (ok ill stop derailing now)

[saturdaymorning]

not sure what you guys are trying to say. that a lot of people play them? i got bored of all 3 of those games. i dunno. in general, i think blizzard games get old fast. tony was wondering why hearthstone got old fast, and i made a joke (albeit a bad one hence the Kappa).

blizzard design perfectly polished spreadsheet games, and i think it works well with hearthstone. at least for now. i've always wanted to get into a ccg but without the baggage of physically collecting them and doing research on hundreds of cards to be competent.

[antoniodamala]

I was just following casinner train of thought for no particular reason, to tell you the truth.

But I too think that nowadays blizzard design school is about mastering spreadsheets.

point was that even if you personally think they get old fast, the fact that there's a still ongoing pro scene for starcraft and WoW is still played, point to the opposite.

(i stopped playing WoW before the first expansion came out and i was never big into starcraft, just sayin)

oh

[Alevice]

they are heading for more arcadey styled games. same happened with diablo 3 for me, and even hots campaign.

[Udderdude]

More than two games per decade from Blizzard?  Sacrilege!

Really though, I hope they don't get overeager and start firing out games left and right, hoping some of them stick.

[ANtY]

i don't care what they do : )

[Udderdude]

Wow such apathy.  Very unconcerned.

[Alevice]

Well, more games by blizz that arent yearly wow exp packs is a welcome soght for me.

tell me about it. im a mage and i regularly get slammed by hunters and paladins with their pimped out minions. fuck this shit yo.

anyway game is a fun time waster and definitely cheaper than playing a real ccg. mobile versions are gonna be the real deal when they come out tho.

I've goofed around with playing on my iPad through Splashtop. It's gonna be dangerous.
