So yeah... Hearthstone

I stopped being a support main (support feel awful to me now and that's after 3 years as a support main) and went from 1 second or 1 minute wait times to 5 minutes or 15 minutes wait time. So I picked up hearthstone to play in between. Kind of sad I need a second game to play just to play this game now. Anyway, the game is kinda fun...seems a bit completely random and lucked based but maybe I just have a lot to learn. I used to play magic and Yu-gi-oh when I was younger figured I could be good at this too. nope. Hell, I can't even get to rank 15. Anyway, are there any other HS players out there? I don't seem to know anyone that plays.

I've played off and on since it came out. Make sure to hit your dailies as much as possible. It's absolutely a pay to win game; so grinding decks gets old fast, but still fun.

Yup, it's a fun game. This is my 3rd month playing now. Climbing ranks is a lot easier in HS, just create a Legend netdeck you can afford to complete. I like to play whatever I want in casuals though. Instead of playing ranked this month, I built my first original deck and played the hell out of it. ^^

I stopped playing Hearthstone when I saw paladins every other game.

I like hearthstone. Played it since beta, yes the meta decks can be annoying but there's something satisfying of making different variations thats keeps it fun. Also the solo adventures are great

It's fun, and I enjoy its mechanical similarity to mtg, but hate the caps on life. I like playing paladins and priests because my mtg strategy is always centered around healing. I hate it when I can only go to 30. also, that adventurer who refills peoples entire health. How is that not banned?

I've been playing ever since it launched (have all the earnable cardbacks) but I ONLY play once a month for rank 20 rewards.

If you don't drop real cash on cardpacks and get the legendaries like Alexstrasza, you're going to have a really hard time climbing.

I don't have such long queues that I can play a Hearthstone game inbetween, but I do play Hearthstone and draw while I wait for the enemy to finish their turn. I HATE people that take forever to make a move, and one of my favourite cards is Nozdormu just for the active, lol.
