I'm taking a break

Submitted 3 years, 5 months ago by

So I'm gonna take a break from hearthstone constructed. And now you may be wondering "But bagel the Xpac just came out?" And to that, I counter with "Yeah but I have a solid 25 cards from it" Quite frankly had it not been for duels I might have had a bit more but I was 3 epics away from a new treasure so I just bought some SA packs to get it, and now I'm high and dry to get any Darkmoon stuff. And so far from the games I've played in standard, I saw about 3 secret hunters, 2 AGGRO HUNTERS IN STANDARD, and a stealth rouge oh and also a warlock who didn't play any DMF cards except C'thun who he didn't even finish building.

 

So quite frankly I get it's still new and stuff but I've seen no cards, been beaten up by hunters in standard, and am pretty much broke due to the new reward system, but hey I've got 40 dust from that year of the dragon pack! So while I'm not quitting hearthstone entirely I'm taking a break from standard/ranked/duels whatever needs a collection and just gonna do some battlegrounds every now and then. Because I want my matches to be slightly less decided by rolling a single D20.

    This is exactly what I was talking about.. You totally wasted your gold on an old expac probably other players too, to get that treasure unlock in duels..

    Why did you spend your gold on Scholomance packs (15 of them, taking the average of 1 epic per 5 packs) for duels and then complain that you don't have enough Darkmoon Faire cards to play standard? You made the conscious decision to spend most of your gold in order to gain a new treasure in duels, why don't you just play duels then and wait until you have enough gold to buy more Darkmoon Faire packs to play standard? Frankly, I'm a bit surprised you only had enough gold to buy 20 packs, and I'm a bit baffled that you chose to spend the vast majority of that gold to buy old packs in order to gain a bonus in a game mode that is apparently not your priority.

    Now this is a fair point but I spent that gold because I thought duels would be a fun mode since I loved the dungeon runs, but then after playing like 20 matches I realized I actually hated it. It's all fun and games until you have to face someone with from the swamp and bee band as paladin or some weird taunt warrior as rouge. Not to mention my collection is already pretty weak since they culled like 50% of what I actually have for duels. So while yes it was my choice to spend it on something I thought would be fun I found out I actually didn't really like it as much as I expected.

    Oh yeah uh stealth rouge it's a new archetype way better than stealth rogue although I will admit stealth yellow is much more enjoyable to go against.
