WTH, blizzard. Can you not just have a brawl with the new cards where I’m not just playing an alternate version of Arena? I have 20 tickets because I do not play arena. JFC, dudes.
Gave it a try. Just let the game auto complete a deck. First match was regular , standard and boring to watch elemental shaman. Next was the imbue priest that kept getting 0 cost spells. The next was hunter that got a 5 cost card, that they could play, the next turn, for 3 mana. It was a 3/7 that attacked two random minions. WTF IS THIS GAME?!?!?!?!
Devs can’t even be bothered to use an existing brawl mode that has been used before with the new cards. Just copy paste arena mode and call it a day. Gotta get people to buy them tickets.
Disgusting.
Why would you think that would be a winning deck?
It says you can only use valid cards, but i swear I played against a rogue using a few cards that I’m pretty sure were rotating out, they were actually using a deck I would’ve used but the cards weren’t in the available pool
well brawl always is a cointoss wether its going to be a fun one or a terrible one. I only play them when i dont need to make a deck myself
I never said I did. Still got two wins, though. It was a chance to see what decks people are actually playing.
It wouldn’t be completely bad to autocomplete because the pool of cards is very limited, but there are some classes that are seriously nerfed this brawl without Emerald Dream cards and others on the opposite spectrum. Eg libram pala appears great with only old cards (or at least very competitive) while some cards that only had mediocre starships before the StarCraft miniset are just bad (also Shaman is probably bad because the Asteroids probably need support from older cards not allowed like Shudderblock).
Blizzard can’t keep people playing Arena so they force Arena onto players.
This game is nothing but unbalanced gameplay and forced interactivity.
0 cost cards have been a problem since day 1. They’ve had multiple professional players and streamers berate Blizzard about it for the last 10 years. Do you know how well they listened to those complaints? Well, you do because of all those 0 cost cards you got to play against.
Treat Hearthstone like gambling and you’ll see that it has nothing to do whether you win or lose. It’s all about hitting that gambling itch that if you spend money on packs, you can build the “good” decks and win. But by the time you do, those decks aren’t good anymore so you have to buy more and build more, and buy more and build more.
It’s designed to play on addictive behaviors in people’s personalities to get them to spend money. Not enjoying the game? Spend money on card packs, build a better deck. Enjoying the game? Spend money on card packs so you keep winning and building stronger more robust decks. Winning a lot? You can earn even more rewards if you buy the tavern pass each season and then use gold to get things.
