The ‘Silence Priest’ deck is a real cheap dust deck. It’s the one of the 5 that comes from Zayle.

And you can make it even cheaper with little adjustments like removing mlazul

Except if I want to be competitive in MTG I need to spend hundreds. If I want to be competitive in HS I can very easily do it for free.
Start new account, play from 50-25. Players are terrible at those ranks and if you have any CCG experience at all you will likely wipe the floor with most of them.
Use the dust from the free packs to make a deck. Mech Hunter is one of the best decks in the format and EASILY craftable in its entirety with the dust from those packs. You might - MIGHT - need to sub Reckless Rocketeer for Leeroy, which is what I was doing at rank 5 anyway and still doing fine.
If you aren’t good at the game there’s nothing wrong with that, you can learn. I llc been playing off and on since the beta and wasn’t ever better than average but this season things clicked for me and I climbed 13 ranks in about 3 days. It’s when rather than learning you blame anything but yourself (which you are doing here) that I start to have a problem with you.
Such a lie the game just came out has not had ANY xpacs and is (was) no different then HS was when it 1st came out. Stop being a Fanboi and tell the truth.
… MTG has been going since 1993 and has had tons of expansions. Most competitive standard decks cost $200+. Some decks (hello Esper control, hello Grixis) are close to $600.
If youre talking about Arena and not paper Magic you need to specify Arena, which by the way HAS had multiple expansions since release. I actively participated in its release drafts for Guilds of Ravnica, Core 2019, Ravnica Allegiance and War for the Spark.
And if it’s Arena you’re trying to say just came out, that’s also false. Arena has been in open beta since September and playable for some as closed beta for longer. It’s been publicly available for nine months now and has had every expansion paper Magic has had in the time since its been in existence.
If youre going to accuse someone of lying, you might want to make sure you actually know what you’re talking about first. Might not make you look so stupid as trying to say MTG just came out

It’s true, you need about a year to fully catch up as a 100% f2p. In that time, you would have enough gold to buy at least 50 packs as each expansion comes out and dust to craft whatever you want. Just do each quest daily as it comes, no need to grind the 3-wins-10-gold riffraff. Ride the hall-of-fame announcements for even more dust. Dont buy packs in the middle of expacs, just save the gold to buy a lot when the new expac drops. At this point, everyone has the new cards for the first time, there is parity.
We are NOT talking about the card game we are talking about its brand new digital only version that was released just a couple of months ago. I assumed (my bad) that since we were talking about hearthstone any reference to Magic was their digital only version.
hard to keep track
people here compare HS to mtg physical version all the time
Read the entire post, I addressed that too. That did NOT just come out as it has been publicly available since last September and HAS had expansions, the same ones paper Magic has had in that time.
I played in release drafts ON ARENA for Guilds of Ravnica, Core Set 2019, Ravnica Allegiance and War for the Spark.
And yes, I’m aware September was open beta. That doesn’t change the fact that it was publicly available, nor does it mean the game is now in “vanilla”. It’s launching with the full complement of Standard sets, not just one single Classic set like vanilla HS did.
Now, I’m not denying that Arena is amazing and frankly more new player friendly than Hearthstone. I’m just pointing out all the wrong parts of your claims.
@Loco
Sorry but your wrong and I am right please stop talking to me I do not like you.
The feeling is mutual, and unfortunately you are NOT right, nor have you been about a single thing I’ve seen you post.
But feel free to provide an actual argument for me to poke holes in.
The level of maturity in these forums never ceases to amaze me
Play arena. I started playing Hearthstone when Witchwood came out, i now have over 13k gold on NA(9k+) & EU(4765) combined and enough dust to craft whatever cards I’d need, however I dont enjoy Constructed.
this mist be TCs first card game
i doubt you can get your collection to catch up as a new player on shadowverse eternal or any other card game which been out for years
I heard Shadowverse has been getting harder, with mini expansions, and Unlimited format (equivalent Wild format) is cheaper than Rotation because there are cheaper staples from the older sets, but I haven’t touched Shadowverse in quite a while.
Eternal allows you to catch up far better than Hearthstone, you get individual cards in all sorts of wins and rewards, you can handpick cards from sets you are missing a lot of in Forge and Draft. I first started playing during their 3rd set, and of course, like other card games they have a bias towards rewarding packs from the latest set, so I had less of Set 2 for a while. I played on and off, missed lots of daily quests and free packs, but after a while my Set 2 is right about par with my other sets in terms of set completion, allowing you to get most commons and uncommons in time. Heck if you grind a lot you can probably get 100% of every set except for legendaries.
And Hearthstone really needs something like this, as a newer player has no way to catch up, whether casually or grinding arena, on older sets, to grow a collection organically through card rewards or packs. Instead, the only way to get the Wild sets playing the game is through dust, and that’s really unfeasible for how many epics and legendaries you’d rather spend your dust on.
At least have a baseline of being able to catch up on commons and rares that other players playing at the time were able to earn for free.
