Also running a priest deck with Lorewalker Cho and Majordomo as the only two minions. The point of the deck is to drop lorewalker then play Mindgames same turn, trick the opponent into playing Mindgames, they summon your majordomo on their side of the board, then kill the majordomo and hit opponent with two mind blasts.

That sounds silly enough to work

I got about 30 wins with that deck yesterday, but also conceded about 50 times. I haven't been able to play serious matches in a while. The good thing about the deck is that I know whether to concede or not early based on whether or not I draw Majordomo too soon. He needs to stay in your deck, which makes this deck unlike any other because your win condition is, and needs to be, completely out of your hands.
The best part is watching the opponent hover over the golden mindgames card you put in their hand, right before they play it. This is the next level of "secret."

I can see the enjoyment of a deck like this, especially when it pays off, but it's a gimmick deck. As long as you're enjoying yourself conceding more than you're succeeding.

Winning matches isn't as fun as pulling off cool tricks.

Right. But on the flip side, mill decks can be a huge drag on both players. There should be a fun/unfun ratio, for the win lose scenarios. That's why Team 5 has consistently fought against mill archetypes.

Highly debatable. But each to their own.

If you need to win a match to feel like a winner....

Blizzard issued a gift to people who opened packs yesterday before 2:30 PST. They gifted users 33% of the packs opened. So if you opened about 420 packs, then you would see 140 packs added to your queue.
I basically have everything gold now.

basically only missing Sergeant Sally, who looks as fucking stupid as Ghostbusters 2016. But yeah, 14/20 gold legends already. Got 4 golden Kruls.

I am missing so much shit. I only got to open 120 packs. I may bite the bullet and buy that $500 amazon coin thing for $350 or whatever it is now. I did pull a golden patches the pirate though. I only opened like 5 legendaries, and a friend of mine opened fucking 12 the whole time I was opening my packs, and that's not counting whatever that asshole pulled before and after I opened my small-time pack stack.

I would wait. Not sure if Blizz will have a winterveil sale again. It could happen in the next 2 weeks.

Well played EW!
I'm still sticking to a no buy policy. I've gotten to a point where I don't appreciate the game like I used to, so I don't have the urge to spend cash money on it like I once did. The reduced legendary rate is also sickening. I don't want to give Blizzard money out of principal. The enjoyment of pulling a Gold or legendary from gold earned packs far outweighs that masturbatory regret of opening pack after pack and getting jack shit. Also, Overwatch.
Next time I'm pissed I'll put all that aside and buy packs though I'm sure.

You're just more into Overwatch. HS is still great and the new cards are, to me, surprisingly good. I have been loving it so far.

Yeah, you're right. I've also gotten really shit at Hearthstone, and am always out of touch with the meta. That said, it's still a very good game, I also wish they'd do more with it - it's a bit samey...

Winterveil sale was just classic cards. No chance Blizzard discounts the expansion they just released.

I agree they won't discount the current expansion and I don't want them too. In 400+ packs I got all but 1 card, most of th golds. I would use the rest of my unused Amazon coin to buy classic packs again and try to craft more old legendaries for wild.

I am missing a bunch of GvGs. Good ones like Vol'jin and sucky ones like foereaper, bolvar, iron juggernaut, flame leviathan, malorne. And I refuse to craft non gold, so completing the collection will take longer.
