epix37's deck tracker is pretty handy (doesn't violate the TOS since you can do the same things with a pen and paper)

also getting to rank 4 isn't really an achievement but it was good enough a spot to take a screenie

Hacker.
But seriously, I once saw a friend of mine open a pack with a legendary, two epics, and a golden rare, so great packs like these aren't impossible.

I got a pack yesterday that had Tirion Fordring and one today had Hogger and Farsight.
Edit2: Mediafire is refusing to work with me so photos aren't going to happen. Oh well.

I still play, and I'm still not that good. Haven't gotten many TGT cards yet as I didn't pay for packs.

Just out of wondering, I never played HS but kinda wanted to get into it. But I heard that its basically a pay to win game because you can buy better cards. Not sure if thats true but just asking.

You get cards though packs, and you can either get packs with gold from quests which you can do free but takes forever, or you can just buy the packs with real money. I have a lot of cards and am fairly good at the game and the only thing I bought was Blackrock Mountain, an expansion that adds cards but can also be bought with gold.

It is pay2win. Everyone plays the good cheap decks and they are countered by expensive decks. Some of the legendary cards will win the game for you single-handedly.

Ranking up in ladder is highly dependent on how flexible you are in countering the meta and you need cards to do that.

You can play arena where everyone gets random cards, but it costs 150 gold per entry and you need to be twice as good as the average player just to break even. Since drafting is random you can get stuck with a bad deck many times in a row. And this is on top of already drawing cards from your deck randomly. It will also take you many months of grinding to get cards, there is a daily gold cap.

Then I guess it's a good thing I stopped my download half-way through last week.

you can always start playing casually by making silly decks or learning the arena

there are plenty of cheap decks that are effective and people go to legend with them (grim patron, face decks, zoo and oil rogue to some extent)

- you actually need 7 wins to break even afaik

- grim patron is still very much a thing, none of the new decks changed anything (except chillmaw and not everybody plays that in dragon decks)

- yes getting to legend takes a lot of time, i could probably do it but i don't feel like grinding (highest i've been is rank 2 but i climb to rank 5 every season without struggle)

I'm nearly completely F2P and I have Oil Rogue with everything except Thalnos.
Jwso are you kidding? Have you played any of these secrets Paladins or totem shamans going around?
