    What's Hearthpwn? It's always been "Out Of Cards" hasn't it? (I'm trying to start a new mandela effect)

    I didn't know about this site until recently, otherwise I'd have migrated a lot sooner. I used to love Hearthpwn, but through some real life stuff effecting my judgement, it led to some forum meltdowns I never fully recovered from. This is of course my own fault for not interneting properly, but regardless the fresh start is a welcome one.

    thanks. I will probs skip the carpets for now then. My idea with SN1P-SN4P wont work neither as I forgot the bunnies don't have magnetize. for this reason I dunno if it will be worth it in pogos.

    I've been playing pogorogue casually since before the buff. Without card draw it's a bit of a meme deck even if you do manage to shuffle a million pogos into your deck, but if you include Myra's, which I don't have, I assume it becomes consistent(ly terrifying) in the late game.

    It's probably fair to say that the game is typically decided by Shark + Miscreant though. The Pogos are the flashy win condition, but it's the lackeys with double battlecry that are the unsung workhorses of the deck. Coin or no coin also makes a world of difference because of the miscreant. The deck is obviously a control-killer but it doesn't auto-lose to aggro if/when you can get a nutty shark turn to swing the board.

    You can set it up so you draw your deck then shuffle bunnies back in again so all you draw is bunnies. you have to know when it's right to do this though, but even early game it can be amazing if you have the right cards in hand already. really you want to have a shark totem and some ways of making more bunnies. so if you have a juiced up scheme, a shark totem and bunny in hand, you can play myras, empty the deck and then fill it back up again, then using the shark at the right time to snowball the bunnies. 

    It's pretty decent, and you don't need prep for it neither. 

    PS: I have been playing pogos since BD, so have seen the different versions come and go, and in the process have gotten to know the deck quite well.

    I'm quite excited to see whether it sticks around this time, or fades into obscurity after a week or two. It does

    in case you're interested. this is my latest pogo deck. I have been working on it since BD, and I reckon this is close to optimal (for me at least) right now. 

    I still need to test out the magic carpets and SN1P-SN4P, just not sure what I'd replace. The Gatekeepers are actually very good in this deck, even just landing one on an early pogo can help out a lot VS. more aggressive decks.

    If anyone has any suggestions having played more pogo in this meta, for what I might change to accommodate 2 or 3 extra cards (not sure if you'd want 1 or 2 carpets) I'd love to hear about it.

    Here is the MK-3 anyway (it's more like the MK-5 at this point, but it's the 3rd deck in the "Death Bunny" saga, the other iterations were more like "2.1, 2.2" etc.

    I'm looking at a more stripped back version, but I'm hearing that pogo is decent right now. I've always been into my pogos since boomsday, so will be elated if they eventually have found some footing in the meta.

    Cool idea, if it were implemented in a way so that it couldn't be exploited, it might become a thing one day. 

    I'd mainly just like to get more chances at dust rewards as well as gold. Remember the event where we got gold and dust for quests? more stuff like that would be great. 

    I think maybe adventures should come with dust rewards as there really is no reason for me to buy the current one if all you get is a single golden pack for it. I mean I could be wrong herfe, but that really doesn't seem like a worthwhile investment on my part.

    Yeah you get 2 card backs and a meme legendary card, but the card backs are more magic based ones and we have so-bloody-many magic themed cardbacks already.

    How many card backs do mage players need? ha ha (OK I get not everyone cares about matching up their card backs to their hero, but I do and I have loads of magic ones I never use as I don't play mage. I do sometimes use the blue dragonflight one when I play dragon priest, but thats about it really... oh ok I use the 2 karazhan backs a lot. especially the discoball with disco-lock, that's probably my favourite combo with mecha jaraxxus as the colours match as well)

    I like. 

    Would not having Jepetto hurt do you think? There are some expensive cards in there so might require a bit of tweaking to remove him. Been running similar stuff recently anyway so I know how good mutate can be when you land it on giggling especially. Tirion and 2 x annoy o's for 7 mana is pretty sweet. 

    Also he is right about not neding many activators for the murloc generator. I tend to run amalgam as well though for the 2nd activator, but then I am running mechs as well in my deck that is closest to this (I run mechs in most things at the minute as magnetize is just so strong)

    My GT Is Nurgles Socks. (which is a name I created especially for Hearthstone, but is now my name in WoW and D3 and stuff as well as they all share 1 name. I typically choose a different name on each platform, so I'm something else on steam and then something else on Xbox live and again for PSN)

    I just go by the name "Nurgz" mostly though for short. (at least in WoW where I actually have friends anyway)

    The name basically came about because Nurgle is the God of Pestilence in Warhammer, so it's pretty filthy. Now there was this TV show in the UK called "The Young Ones" from the 70's and there's this bit where the character "Vivian" has sentient socks because they are that dirty. They basically come to life and start to terrorize the other house-mates in the show. 

    So I came up with the idea for a character that was basically the God Nurgles Socks that in the same vein as Vivian's Socks, had became sentient and were playing Hearthstone. So the idea is that if you are playing against me, you're actually playing against a sentient pair of socks once owned by the God of pestilence. 


    You asked. Ha, Ha.

    Also if anyone wanted a bomb hunter, this list is working for me. I'm rating Upgradeable Framebot a lot in this deck, it's great at getting something to stick for Magnetize. I might end up adding a Mossy Horror though over the Necro as a sure-fire way to set off Flark's bomb's. I Just crafted Flark for the list so I've not gotten to use him a lot yet. One thing I am thinking is if you have used a lot of your magnetic mechs already, the bombs might just be dead on the board. I know people were cutting him before, but I just wanted to go all out on the bombs and thought with SN1P-SN4P that's extra ways to make the bombs active. I do reckon a Mossy Horror could be great though as it's only 1 mana more than Flark, so could be played the next turn. 

    If you could combo necro, flark and mossy though, that would be sweet. I'm just not sure right now what to take out for mossy. I like all the stuff how it is.

    yeah, I've heard that is good. do you know if you need preps for that deck? I dusted my preps for the full dust value as wasn't playing rogue much at the moment, and  wanted to divert the resources. This was prior to the buffs being announced though. I do like some pogo hoppers, I was otherwise bored with rogue though and I never like to play the top dog deck too much.

    you said to share decks in the comments? I made this hybrid shaman that is dong well for me. it might look a little weird at a glance, but it plays great. I'm still in the process of fine tuning it though, so probably not the finished thing. Ideally I wanted to use the 2 new buffed cards as well as the new legendary. I also wanted to make an agressive deck that could make wide and tall boards and could be sticky. I think I succeeded in doing what I set out to do. Only issue I might run into is draw (but it hasn't been yet) I could change the deck slightly to accommodate frog totems though if this was an issue, and maybe a single copy of storm chaser. 

    Like I say, still testing the deck out. I love it so far though. Great fun. 

    EDIT: also 2 x soul of the murloc might be overkill, I'm just aware that you need to have a sticky deck at the minute. I may end up just running 1 or cutting them completely if the replicating mechs are enough. Ideally though you get a replicating mech to land on amalgam or coppertail, and then when this pops you cast soul of the murlocs on the adds. You either stack up a mech for damage or use one of the buffs to help find the damage for lethal.

    I know this doesn't fix your HDT problem, but you could play on android with the app Arcane Tracker, it also has an overlay and saves all your data to HSReplay. I love it when at work :)

    thanks for the suggestion, I don't really wanna run HS through an android emulator though. The downgrade in the games interface would be worse than not having deck tracker. 

    I get that it's cool if you're playing it on mobile though.

    actually I totally got ahead of myself. it seems that some parts are working, bot others aren't. it still won't sync up with my decks. last update was 2 days ago.

    I think I got it working. "no deck mode" was activated when I checked the app. I don't know if switching this off fixed it or it was a coincidence, but it appears deck tracker is working again at least as I can see the win counter at the bottom of the screen.

    If anyone has this issue, try running HDT in admin mode once HS is already running. I think this is what solved my issue after all.

    Innkeeper is indeed going away, as it's property of Curse. But Flux has stated that they'll be working on a new one over here. Probably a long timetable on it though.

    that's cool. look forward to it. 

    I just need to solve my HDT problem then as I can't play without an overlay now and I really like my replays. I'm not very technically minded when it comes to PC's, so beyond the obvious I really don't know what to do. I have tried re-installing, running as admin etc and none of it seems to fix my issue. This is what is leading me to think that it might be a compatibility issue with the newest patch or something.

    Until I can verify if this is happening with anyone else though, I can't be sure what is going on. I do know it stopped working after the patch, but not about to jump to conclusions.

    Yeah that didn't work neither. it says to run HDT as administrator, but this doesn't work neither. I'm at a loss here, I have no idea what to do. Everything is updated and I've tried what it says and it still won't work.

    By any chance has anyone on EU had this happen as well after the most recent patch, please?
