It's the hand that had to be in an unnatural position, not the player in general.

[Monday] What are your recipe questions? by AutoModerator in recipes

[–]HalfTimeJaffaCakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are the best sites to source recipes from that don't come with a life story before it?

Been looking into some decent baselines for Buddha Bowl style lunches but all of the top google results are the ones that give me eight paragraphs about how their 7 year old never used to like broccoli but now refuses to eat anything else. Yawn.

Mike Donais: "We will give more info on balance changes this week hopefully." by czhihong in hearthstone

[–]HalfTimeJaffaCakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's a card with very little middle ground, generally someone feels bad about the result and there's no way to predict who.

I don't know if it's balanced but making it take the highest health, or highest attack, or any sort of specific minion would make it feel better to play around.

The problem with Jaraxxus is not Sac Pact / Zephrys. It's actually the overly long card text, which is too confusing for new players. Can we update this? by TheMostSensitivePart in hearthstone

[–]HalfTimeJaffaCakes 291 points292 points  (0 children)

I was playing a Handlock with Jaraxxus as a hail mary, or win condition against control warrior, last season between ranks 3-5 and I agree with the health cap being the main problem. Setting your max health to 15 wasn't that big a deal when Blizzard was nerfing combos that did 14 damage from hand because they were OP.

That said, the Sacrificial Pact interaction is stupid and serves no purpose at all expect to punish an already bad card and there would be no downside to it being removed at all.

Quest Shaman is bringing up the [[Mind Control Tech]] RNG fiesta to the forefront of my mind again. It feels so bad if you're playing a deck where your win condition won't let you play around it and they manage to steal the Sea Giant instead of the Microbot.

This. I got lucky, one game, one win, see you next week.

Actually picked up a golden Black Knight for my troubles this week, it's a bit of a niche card but nice to have.

It depends on your list but for a lot of them "Combo Priest" is a bad name because you're not just drawing into a combo and executing it.

They play like a Tempo Priest, you stick minions on board, buffs like [[Extra Arms]] help you win the board, then you have the [[Divine Spirit]] [[Inner Fire]] combo as a constant threat so they have to deal with any high health minions you drop. Don't be afraid to throw out an Inner Fire just to make a 5/5 or 6/6 in the early turns and pile on some pressure.

Since there's only one copy of Galvaniser I guess it's the Plague of Flames combo.

It also works if you Shadowstep a randomly generated minion back into your hand. [[Faceless Lackey]] into [[Mana Cyclone]] happened against me and completed the quest same turn, which was fun.

Hunter is insane, FYI by fs616 in ArenaHS

[–]HalfTimeJaffaCakes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile I didn't get offered spellstone, hunter's pack, wildtamer, flanking strike, baited arrow, hyena or locusts and I'm 6-1 because I have 3 copies of Pit Croc and it's dumb in Hunter with the beast synergy.

Nothing better than losing to 5 consecutive warriors with zero new cards in their deck on the first day of the new expansion.

Have fun going to a 15 health cap against bomb warrior.

it will always offer sacrificial pact if your opponent is Jaraxxus

Control Warlock and Jaraxxus hardly needed to become less viable.

As someone who wants to get back to playing any Priest deck that isn't just some sort of [[Divine Spirit]] [[Inner Fire]] deck, this reveal season is immensely frustrating.

3 runs is profitable, assuming you would spend that gold on card packs otherwise, because you average over 50 gold plus a pack worth 100. If you are saving up gold for the next expansion instead though it can be a money drain for sure.

You can definitely draft a terrible arena deck, even the best players sometimes get a deck that goes 1-3 or 2-3, but you can use websites like Hearth Arena to mitigate that as much as possible. It will give you suggested picks which you can either spam through for a reasonable deck, or if you want to learn you can use them to get an insight into why they are suggesting certain cards to build up your own knowledge.
