It was an interesting choice, I thought. He had Shadow Word Pain to kill off Glinda but doing so would’ve meant not playing anything else on the turn. Now, since the opponent was a Rogue with few cards in hand, it would’ve most likely been the correct choice but that’s where the skill is in this game - knowing the decks and making correct choices.
Of course I doubt that OP (or people like Slimjim) consider that a choice that has meaningful impact on the game.
This game is infuriating at times. You can play a solid game and make some smart plays but then lose to random card generation or something like a Knife Juggler hit to the face when you’ve got a full board.
Still, I come back to it a few times a week for some reason…
Hell, I’m a player that is comfortable at the rank I am at (I admit that I shoot for 15 each month, knowing I’m not going to be anywhere near HCTs or other tourneys), but I know that leaving Glinda up is not an option because of how she snowballs everything if she is left untouched. The Rogue being able to clear his board and beat the OP’s face in with multiple Southsea Deckhands should be a reminder Glinda shouldn’t be left untouched.
i love these type of threads ppl make claims like “OMG THIS GAME IS DEAD” or in this case PPL ARE LEAVING HEARTHSTONE IN DROVES!!" if that was true (which it is not) it would be taking me much much longer to find matches where as atm i find them in under 30 secs 99.9% of the time , moral of the story OP stop trying to make claims at 100% fact when it is clearly not the case ty.
i still play hearstone, but im free to play. the games matcmaking is rigged in every format i have played. standard, battlegrounds, and arena. on top of that i suspect even the card draw is rigged to an extent. but all video games are rigged to a degree(the computer cheats) so im still play the game but i wont spend any money on it and wonder why people do
Just do my dailies dunno if people are leaving by the masses. But the game is just frustrating for me… it really isnt fun to play…
