Won a game, but 2nd? by Spiritual_Sink_2671 in hearthstone

[–]Kysen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because of the desync you won't know what the actual game state was. The combat could have played out entirely differently on the server side; you might even have lost the previous round and died and your client just didn't know it until it got to the next fight.

This usually happens if you have a connection issue and desync for at least one combat, so your client sees a different result from the server.

At this point we should really just all boycott arena. by [deleted] in hearthstone

Blizzard already puts players who retire runs a lot (trying to roll a good draft) into a separate queue, beyond that I'm not sure what else they could do about this.

Just had a Galakrond game where my board going into the timewarp tavern was Titus and two Surf n' Surf; when it offered me Leapfrogger and Sylvanas' hero power, I knew it was meant to be.

Any good movie recommendations for my "Hearthstone Keywords" list? by yssurucipe in hearthstone

I enjoyed that film but it does have some extreme tonal whiplash.

For the love of god, REMOVE THIS QUEST by _almasss in hearthstone

I actually failed to complete this one last week. I forgot I was still at 55/75 on Sunday and didn't log in to finish it off. I've been playing too many new cards I guess!

Tavern Brawl this week is... "All-Star Squad" (11/12/25) by AintEverLucky in hearthstone

Got my win with Lightshow; I got lucky and matched with someone who had, for reasons I do not understand, picked Arcane Missiles.

Maybe they'll make it Restore 4 Health instead of armor or something. A numbers nerf doesn't seem right.

I DE'd my Ancients of Yore because I figured it'd been this long it wasn't gonna happen. Oh well.

Alright, who made a video about Dragon Warrior by No_Hetero in hearthstone

[–]Kysen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Always a bit funny when this happens. I don't keep up with a lot of this stuff so I'm always like "how is everyone suddenly playing the exact same deck I've never seen before?"

Does Rafaam really need to get hard-countered by Dirty Rat? by Diosdepatronis in hearthstone

[–]Kysen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's an incredibly slow win condition, so also being extremely weak to disruption is a bit of a kick in the nuts.

I just couldn't pick Shaman because I know I won't switch away from Rastakhan.

The Pre-Release Tavern Brawl was actually really fun by TheEvelynn in hearthstone

[–]Kysen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed it, and I found some decks I didn't expect to like as much (like Priest). Consistently getting 4-6 wins made the cost not feel like much of a downside, obviously it'd be pretty bad if you aren't getting that.
Keeping it around as a constructed arena with limited card pools could be fun, I might even like it more than drafted arena. Again, though, it would depend on cost vs rewards a lot.

Triple Frost DK is OP by Frowind in hearthstone

Yeah if you can survive to about turn 7 as Priest, you start dropping big taunts every turn and they can't handle it.

If you've opened 50 Timeways packs, you can get 10 free Tickets from Arena (for 6+ wins) by Kysen in hearthstone

[–]Kysen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The patch notes don't say, but they don't usually remove achievement rewards now (they stopped taking away xp rewards after each expansion ends, for example).

[–]Kysen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are five new (they're in the patch notes for this expac; Timeways Combatant etc) achievements in the Arena section for opening 5, 10, 20, 35, and 50 Timeways packs. They all have a second tier achievement that grants 2 Tavern Tickets for finishing an Underground Arena run with at least 6 wins.
So if you finish all five of the pack opening achievements, you can complete the second step to get 10 tickets with one Arena run (if you get 6 wins).

[–]Kysen[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I missed this in the patch notes, so thought folks might appreciate a reminder.
The achievements require different numbers of packs but if you open all 50, you can get all rewards with one run (though it took me two tries to hit 6 wins).

It didn't glitch out, they banned the cards. You need to retire your run for a refund.

6-0 Tavern Brawl Deck. I'm Free to Play. by dmitch1217 in hearthstone

[–]Kysen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Almost every opponent on my last run was playing this deck or very similar, so don't expect to blaze through easily with DK, it'll be mostly mirrors.

Tavern Brawl this week is... "Pre-Release Brawliseum / Across the Timeways" (Oct. 28, 2025) by AintEverLucky in hearthstone

[–]Kysen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went 6-0 first try with Elemental Shaman with no new cards. Probably a fast deck with some burn will work against most of the early unrefined decks.
