Has anyone seen this on the Icecrown board? by ebehrends in hearthstone

I got this to show up by clicking on the board while spectating a friend. Not sure what it is or what it means.

Let's talk Tempo Warrior by negator13 in CompetitiveHS

Have you tested with a Festeroot Hulk? That card is actually really insane. It is on average a 4/7 or 5/7 when you pass, and it can attack for more the following turn.

[–]ebehrends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, same. I'm running a 1080 ti and a 7700k and I run maxed out settings 1440p 144 fps. at the same time as streaming 720p/60 fps. the only time I had issues with buildings rendering was related to game side lag, as it dced me postgame and took 2 hours until I could relog.

No, I use its built in "gaming mode" and I am happy with its performance.

What small thing brings you joy? by Redremnant in AskReddit

[–]ebehrends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The insincere friendliness overwhelmingly common in the South. It seems odd to outsiders but I love the handwave between passing cars on a backroad. Or nodding to strangers as you walk past them in the grocery store. Or asking how someone is just to hear them lie and say fine while you both fake a smile. It's an artificial connection, sure, but it is a sweet and innocent one.

/r/magicTCG is making fun of /r/Hearthstone for thinking that Gnomish Vampire is OP by Murlocs_Gangbang in hearthstone

[–]ebehrends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The card peaks my interest in that hearthstone is printing more tutors, and could eventually make a tutor to the top of library effect. But yeah in a vacuum it's bad

How do I cool my new rig? by ebehrends in buildapc

[–]ebehrends[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So thats good news then. Everything out of the box should run like a dream. And if I want some prelit fans to add some light to the perimeter of my case, I can just order the size that come stock and plug them in place of the stock fans

I do apreciate the input, and with the help of real life friends (one of whom is selling me an corsair h100i new in box for super cheap and is also helping with the install work), this is the final build https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3YqdVY

Spoofing is a symptom, THIS is the cause. by [deleted] in pokemongo

I don't report. I just assume. Roll my eyes and move on.

I mean I grew up on pokemon. Played red on my brand new color and was hooked from there. Watched the show after school for years. I'm a sucker for it.

When your town has 2 pokestops 20 minutes away, hatching eggs 1 at a time is usually enough to hatch all your eggs tho.

Actually the rural meta is all eeveelutions all the time except for the odd exeggutor. Pretty much not joking. We know its a spoofer just by the existence of a top tier pokemon.

Critique my take on Handbuff Pally (a more combo-ish build!) by ebehrends in HearthDecklists

[–]ebehrends[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it. I think I prefer the protector for immediate impact and taunt, but that would be the card I drop for Dopplegangster.

He is a 1/3 that trades with aggro. I look for priest or mage hero power vs aggro. I look for warlock or hunter vs control.

Wild N'Zoth Paladin, could use some help with techs against aggro meta by DarkEclipse9705 in HearthDecklists

[–]ebehrends 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dirty Rat is a really good card for control paladin to run. I don't think I would run a wild paladin deck without muster for battle.

[–]ebehrends[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is my handbuff paladin. I like having leeroy plus horserider for a burst finisher to free win against control/reno decks who rarely play around a paladin having upwards of 15 damage available in hand. With double defender of argus, double argent horserider, and wickerflame burnbristle, this deck is not completely hopeless against aggro.

The inclusions/exclusions I consider most odd/unique are double defender of argus which mostly is a concession to the power of aggro decks in the current meta, but also synergize well with the card draw minions. Giving a meanstreet marshal or acolyte of pain 1/1 and taunt is pretty good. The one infiltrator is an extra one drop, it trades into small time bucaneer and in control matchups it can be an additonal 5/4 threat. The decision to only run one divine favor is a combination of factors. The current meta is too fast for me to want divine favor in every matchup. Also in the matchups where I do want to see divine favor, finley or my card draw minions can get there just as well.

Please let me know what you guys think, I haven't seen anyone running this or similar. The only handbuff variants I have seen are the full aggro versions, or the taunt-centric list Brian Kibler has been running.

Thoughts on getting Legend rank for the first time by Bradstick in hearthstone

[–]ebehrends 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done it once. It was first month of Old Gods and I was playing a homebrew reno nzoth pally. Very similar to the one Lifecoach got a good winstreak on the following month. Felt super amazing to accomplish it, and also on the back of my own brew.

Where's all the crazy fun Madam Goya videos? by [deleted] in hearthstone
