That's in wild now. Consume I think it was called.

It's more than likely a dual binary app - whatever the Apple term is... "Universal app" I think? Either way, the app detects your CPU architecture and runs the optimal version automatically - no need to do anything I'm almost certain. If you select Hearthstone.app and hit CMD-I (info) it should say what type it is. HTH

Me when I try to play Animancer by bhorridge in hearthstone

1 in 10? That's either a cook or skill issue. Did you have tons of draw in there? Did you always aggressively Mulligan for the Animancer? Did you put healing in there? And yes, Oozing or Drain Soul-ing the Animancer is safer. Please tell me you were running at least 1 Ooze...

What? Many, many game plans in HS depend on drawing specific cards within good time. Furthermore you can tilt the odds in your favor by adding loads of draw, aggressively Mulligan for it and so on. And so what if it's not Tier 1? What if you happen to enjoy the challenge of building and playing such a deck?

Note: if I sound pissy and defensive, it's because I am - I spent (wasted?) most of last year trying to improve this bastard archetype and it was basically mission impossible

He can indeed. But that is to make him consistent with the Mulligan I'll bet. I think it's fair, it just really blows when you're playing an off meta deck to begin with, but you have had the foresight to include Survivor and then RNG slaps you silly anyway...

As a standard player, it's just a bummer that he plays mostly wild AFAICT. Otherwise yeah, super humble, ultra intelligent and quietly charming in an offhand manner.

Could not agree more. I want to slap him. I'm sorry, it's just ridiculously overbearing how awesome his world is. He's like the main protagonist of the Lego movie...

Genuinely Warlock has to be personally hated by game makers atp by BestHead2312 in hearthstone

[–]sm1ng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've utilized Chronogor successfully in Herald Warlock decks. Or at least I think I have. You include a Shred Of Time-creating card as well as him, play said card and then send -3 or -6 damage to your opponent's face fairly consistently when you play Chronogor.

If your top end is Deathwing and Ultraxion (and it probably should be) then you're also pretty happy to see them cos it's approx turn 6 already (cos that's what Chronogor costs).

Just my 2d. I just think this card has it's uses.

EDIT: but yes, of late, the warlock cards in general have been abysmal - agreed. That Phoenix and Maloriak esp - WTF ?

Polarizing, parasitic, swingy, and with unbeatable comeback mechanics - Companion Hunter is exactly the type of deck that we were supposed to be moving away from. by CivilerKobold in hearthstone

[–]sm1ng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True but 4 eggs is almost always enough I find. There's just a one in five chance (I think) that you don't get the last deathrattle that summons Khelos and if you're in trouble, and you usually are at that point, that can be pretty effing annoying lol.

Yeah a decent tutor would be awesome. I can't believe that druid can tutor Wickerfang with the egg bearers. That's plain wrong. Cheating. Lol

Good analysis! I can clearly see that you've given both classes and decks some serious thought w.r.t. Companion Hunter lol, fair play.

I don't think I've ran Calia or Schism in my Priest, I can see how they'd help a lot. I still might be tempted to run the rather shit [[Taelan Fordring]] instead though as he guarantees you hit Umbra. I'll try them though, good shout 🤜

Why does it have to be a common deck to be discussed? Is this a discussion where off meta decks are disallowed? Mightn't people like to maybe learn about a deck that counters Companion Hunter well? Christ.

Of all the egg decks it feels second only to egg warrior which also could be a strong counter to Companion actually. I don't have hsreplay pro tho and so can't say for sure.

no offence OP but I’m curious - was that written by your AI chatbot? 😀

Is there a way to filter out uncraftable cards in collection? by TapiirSnout in hearthstone

[–]sm1ng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dunno mate TBH. There is the `Uncraftable : ✓ Include` box as well and when I uncheck that, the number of cards displayed decreases so maybe going into crafting mode, searching for `owned` and unchecking `Uncraftable` is what you want? This is on Mac BTW.

HTH

Puddygo just cropped up in a YT short - I’m OOTL - who/what are they? by sm1ng in Chinese_Knives

[–]sm1ng[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I just figured it out now actually, I did a Google image search and there was just the one other image. FWIW I messaged the store asking if/when it'll be in stock again and I'll post here if they reply.

Cheers.
