Hearthstone – Poor Man’s Hunter Beast Deck (easy, common cards)
I found this deck over on HearthPwn and I’ve had a ton of luck with it. It’s a great deck for someone starting out – quite powerful but doesn’t use many (if any) rare or hard to get cards. Most of the cards will be things you have in your deck already, and any others can be crafted for a very low cost.
Hearthstone stuck at Checking for Updates…
Twice since I’ve been in the beta I’ve had an issue where Hearthstone wouldn’t start. Specifically, it’d get stuck on Checking for Updates. To fix this, I’ve done the following two steps:
Second Impressions: Hearthstone
Since my last post about Hearthstone, I’ve played some more. “Some more” might be a little inaccurate – I’ve played quite a bit more. I’m happy to report that while it’s still dripping in World of Warcraft, it’s actually a pretty damn good collectible card game.
First Impressions: Hearthstone
Last night I received a magical email inviting me to participate in the Hearthstone beta test. I quickly signed in to the battle.net site and downloaded the new battle.net client. That small download didn’t work properly when I started it. A quick visit to the forums let me know that I needed to update either Starcrat 2 or World of Warcraft, which would update the battle.net files already on my machine, then run the Hearthstone installer. That seemed to work and I started the 1.3GB download of Hearthstone itself. It’s a beta, so I’m ok with that little hiccup.
