Hearthstone Deck Guide: Secret Mage
Secret Mage is back. This deck has been floating around for years, but was never quite good enough. During the last expansion, Secret Mage almost cut it, and several players tried their hardest to find the right dek. In...
Catering to Casuals: Hearthstone’s New Player Problem
Blizzard's attitude towards new Hearthstone players has been a source of frustration for a while. In the past, I’ve complained at length about the new player experience, and I stand by my original arguments. The same problems still exist, and they...
Hearthstone Deck Guide: Silence Priest

Journey to Un’Goro Meta Report #4: A Meta Report
If you couldn't tell from my incredibly witty title, this week’s report will not be about the meta. Not much has changed this week in terms of gameplay. Instead of our regular analysis, we're going to talk about everything else...
Journey to Un’Goro Deck Guide: Aggro Druid
Egg Druid was one of my favorite decks before it got lost to the abyss of Wild. Originally created by J4CKIECHAN, Egg Druid was a unique deck that made use of underpowered cards efficiently. Now, with the release of...
Journey to Un’Goro Meta Report #3: The Rise of Paladin
Hearthstone's meta has been slowly settling over the past several weeks. As the new Journey to Un'Goro decks become more refined, they're bound to move around a few ranks. Normally, however, we don't see drastic changes--a deck might move up...
Need for Speed: Hearthstone’s Fast and Furious Meta
Hearthstone has been feeling fast for a while now. When the Mean Streets of Gadgetzan expansion dropped, many players felt that games were suddenly over on turn five. In Pirates, Hearthstone's meta picked up the pace again, and the breakneck speed...
