After a week of playing now, I feel I have a good grasp of whats going on. I still am really bad at arena however, having lost all my attempts 0/3.
Going into ranked, I got down to rank 19, and now just sitting there. I win one, I lose one. Nothing changes. Hopefully though, I will work out some better decks at the moment. Playing casual, my Mage and Warlock can each go on 6 or seven streaks no problem.
I feel I am getting better, and without getting many extra cards, I feel this is a good thing. I have two Summoning Portals now, so I am going to see if I can work that into my Warlock deck. I'm looking to get some Power Overload cards aswell, I think I am going to have to craft those to get them in.
All in all some good progress this week, and hopefully more to come, and maybe I will get to rank 15? Thats the plan anyway.

HearthStone Diary: Day 4
So heres how my first 4 days with HearthStone have gone.
Starting out with the mage deck as everyone does, I soon found that playing actual people was a lot harder than I thought that it would be. These people knew the tricks, the cards, and some seemed to know what I was actually going to play. After many defeats, moved on to another deck.
I drafted a Warlock deck, and managed to win a few games, so I took an hour to read every card, and really look into a strategy to build upon. I built a taunt/rush deck, with warlock spells to back them up. And then went 20 for 20 with the deck.
So I went into ranked matches, and got to rank 18, where the game ups a bit here. I am still looking at this deck, and I know what needs to go into it, I just need the resources.
Next up was a fighter deck. Man, them cards are hard to work with. I am about 50% with the deck at the moment, as its very slow, and works on forcing a stalemate until the point the other person has nothing to play and I can slowley whittle them down. Not great, but its there.
Also, I suck at arena. I have only been in twice, but every time 3 easy defeats for the other players. Hopefully I will get to play as either a mage or warlock soon and that might be a different story.
Overall, I can see how I have improved in 4 days, and cannot wait to see what lies ahead on this journey.
