    Fallen hero is an interesting inclusion. Why not Amplified Snowflurry? Its basically another tour guide.

    I think there's enough justification to swap Deep Freeze with Rune of the Archmage, which will likely improve your matchup against midrange decks that aren't paladin. Deep freeze doesn't curve into dawngrasp anyway.

    I'd like to squeeze out one extra damage from hand for the HK. But I'll try Amplified as I see that all similiar deck lists contain it. But I don't think, that "Random BS, go!" is a better tactic than freezing enemies 1-3+ times.

    @anchom4n Thank you, but this deck really seems to go more into the big direction

    I found that Regis played a similar deck to mine recently. Haven't watched it yet. Maybe this gives me more inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixPf9CDcfbY

    I ended up with this list after your comments:

    I did two ranked games which I lost. One against a Control/DR/N'Zoth Priest which is a bad matchup. I could not create much pressure, so I lost before opp even was forced to play Xyrella hero. In Casual (I may have a worse MMR there) I played two Paladins, which seems to be a good matchup. I won both. In the second match I beat 3 Librams of Hope + Cariel Hero. My Hero Power was at 11 and I was at around 30 health. I didn't have to use Mordresh which was my bullet if they could stick another board. But Mordresh was already worse than Reckless Apprenticse. In fatigue I was favoured with 6 dmg vs 2 dmg each turn.

    So my conclusion after a small sample size: inconsistent, but fun. Needs some refinement.

    Quote From Stockworth

    I'm probably the only person who feels this way because I'm a bit of a curmudgeon, but is anyone else finding the proliferation of skins a bit... much?

    I started playing (mostly F2P, but I did get the two most recent Tavern Passes) back around TGT. There were some alternate skins then, but not a crazy number. I remember being so stoked when I got my first (Morgl, I think?) because of their (relative) rarity.

    Now it seems like every other week there's a bundle of 5-8 dropping, or maybe two bundles. I don't feel compelled to collect them, and don't care if other people want them. And hey, if you don't want the bundles, there's the 14 or so on the rewards track. Plus the 200 level portraits. Go Nuts with trying to get them! No complaints. 

    But it does seem like each time I load Battlegrounds I have trouble recognizing which hero is which. Every time* (*obviously not every time) I open the game there's new pop ups with ads for more bundles. I queue into a match and I'm kind of bewildered what my opponent is (particularly if playing on mobile).

    It's not that it's bad, per se, but it seems a little overloaded to me.

    Maybe I shouldn't tell you about the number of card backs...

    Hello together,

    I'm not very good at deck building. But I have an idea for a deck and I need you help. I want to use the new buffed mage cards (Parrot, Dawngrasp, Wildfire), but it should not be a Big Spell Mage. Of course we need at least some good spells >5 mana for the Parrot. I like Mask of C'Thun and [Hearthstone Card (Arcance Overflow) Not Found], because it's sure they hit enemies. I'm thinking about Deep Freeze and Rune of the Archmage, too But I don't want to add other big spell stuff like Balinda, Clumsy Courier or Tower. So tboth of them might be too expensive. At least Deep Freeze is a Frost spell, which is good for Dawngrasp.

    The second idea is to narrow the spells that Dawngrasp will cast, e.g. he/she/it should always play Wildfire as the only Fire spell. So I would probably only add max only one other Fire spell, maybe Fireball to close out games. By this I expect the hero power of Dawngrasp to be at least 4 damage from the beginning. 

    So the synergies I want to build around are Hero Power + multiple Spellschools + >=5mana spells that target enemies. The Parrot should cast Mask, or Overflow (or Deep Freeze). Dawngrasp should cast Wildfire, Mask, Overflow (and/or Deep Freeze).

    This is the current skeleton I created containing the core cards of my idea.

    There are obviously some HP synergy cards missing (Manafeeder, Tour Guide, Fallen Hero, Coldarra) and the Frost spell(s) (Deep Freeze and/or Ice Barrier?) that I'm unsure about how much and which to take. I thought about Starscryer, too. Can you help me to put some flesh onto the bones?

    Yesterday I saw two shop offers. Alterac Valley welcome (20 money, 10 AV packs, 10 Standard, 1 AV Legy)  and a similar golden bundle. I was confused there was no news on this site about this. Now the offer is gone. Did I miss it?

    3/3 in casial standard. But the last one wanted to lose fast. I played some Burgle Rogue and won the other two games, too.

    I personally like esports events in a fresh meta. The Viper vs. hunterace final was one of the best tournament games in HS esports and that was because the decklists were completely unrefinded. Nobody added Rafaam into any deck afterwards. And it's skill testing, too. Who's getting the best decklist in an undeveloped meta...

    Great deck. Only played 3 games but having a blast. Resurrecting Leper Gnomes and Kobold Sandtroops really let the OddQ Hunter consider. Thumbs up.

    What do you do against this new Deathrattle Rogue with the Kobold, Kel'tuzhad, Ragnaros and the Armor-Demon?

    I have the small hope, that the owl deck is only a temporary phenomenon until other decks are more refined.

    I bought the big pre-order and 40 packs with gold (~125 packs + 5 golden). I'm pretty satisfied with the results. During the opening I opend three Legendaries in 7 or 8 packs, two of them in a row. After that I had to click until the pity timer hit. I have most of the heroes and dodged the Honor Legendary.

    Golden Pre-Order: Galvangar and Caria Felsoul

    In the 5 golden packs: Wildheart Guff

    In the rest: Cariel, Rokara, Brukan, Scabbs (gold!), Tamsin, Kurtus, Bearon, Najak Hexxen

    (Reward Track, Level 20: Mulverick)

    Maestra was never really fixed. As far as I know.

    The article is good but I'm missing the "fitting neutrals" section at the end.

    What makes this so sad is that sometimes want to ask the recent opponent sth. about a specific play or talk about a funny rng moment but nobody accepts me....

    I can already anticipate myself misplaying very frequently because I just wasn't paying enough attention.

    Am I the only one who thinks at "10 points for Gryffindor" when I see this?
