If anyone has yet to get into the Hearthstone beta that wants to give it a whirl, I got another Hearthstone key today that I'd be happy to give up. Just post or send me a PM!

Me too Kull! -- So there's two available if anybody wants them.
Are either of these still available? If so and you don't mind it moving outside the guild a very close friend would enjoy it. If not, no worries of course!

I think I have one available, if I find it I will PM the code to you Taka
If you expect a kick in the balls and get a slap in the face, then it's a victory!
Super special thanks sir doug of doge! My friend is very appreciative and his wife is not!

I keep reading that rush-control is the new meta so I've been trying it out and it seems to be going well. I had a super bizarre looking shaman arena draft where I really focused on picking lower cards cost cards that I never would have selected in the past ended up including a balancedish amount of 1s, 2s, 3s, and 4s topped off with 2 5s and a 6. I had 1 or 2 of all of the lightning spells (single, 2 target, and full AOE). I ended up going 8-2 and both of my losses were to priests who just ended up outlasting me into mind-control range and then got some crazy extra card draws.
A Guide to Constructed Hearthstone
First, you'll fight a Mage.
Then another Mage.
Afterward, a third Mage.
Next up you'll play against someone that constantly freezes your minions... that's also a Mage.
Your fifth game you'll battle another Mage that will have about 8 minions in their deck in total -- four of which are Giants you cannot stop from being cast way before "normal" and two of which are Doomsayers that nearly always get value because no one can afford to play hard-removal in constructed -- all because high-end constructed consists of every asshole just copying the current deck they saw online from whatever major tournament and calling it skill.
After that, you'll face another fucking Mage who casts Ice Block early which of course you can do fuck all about then proceeds to drop a few Ethereal Arcanists, which will always be 5/5 minions at least and each passing turn that your shit gets frozen or you're unable to deal direct damage to kill them they get +2/2 stronger!
For a lively game seven you'll begin a journey deep into the wondrous depths of the meta game as you face yet another Mage who coins out two Mana Wyrms on turn 1 that run rampant as his follow-up Arcane Missiles hit every single time with perfect accuracy while you sit there dumbfounded, with a trickle of rage-drool running down your chin.
Just when you think all hope is lost, along comes the tried-and-true Mage for your next adventure who cares so little for your efforts that the Fireballs onto your pathetic face begin immediately on Turn 4 (backed up by an Ice Barrier or Ice Block), followed by a couple rounds of Fireball/Frostbolt/Ice Lance to your face if needed before reaching turn 7 and coining out the Pyroblast to finish you off.
Well don't you worry, you've learned your lesson for your ninth game and now are prepared with heals galore to sustain you through the burst. Just as you're starting to feel confident that you've pushed his health into the kill zone he drops two Molten Giants (for free) along with Ragnaros for good measure on turn 8, then heals back to 15 with Alexstrasza on turn 9. Still think you have lethal? Sorry there's an Ice Block for the next two turns, so fuck off!
ALRIGHT THEN! So game ten is bound to be different this time around...
Nope, it's another Mage.
Well how about this next game?
Still a Mage.
What if I
Mage.
But I
Mage.
FUCK OFF I DON
MAGE.

Hey Kull, I wanted to get into constructed play. I really like how the Mage plays...do you have any tips on how not to be terribad?
KKthx
P.S. Sorry I had to...I too have become fed up with the Mage...deleted the decks that I made and have been trying to come up with something decent as an Anti-mage to no avail.
