I'm finally starting to get a decent enough card collection together that I can actually start putting together some relevant decks. Had some decent success recently with an ultra low budget Oil Rogue and Grim Patron Warrior deck.
Anyone have any advice on the best way to craft Legendaries? They are the biggest pieces I'm missing in like every single deck I have.
Don't spend dust on anything else. Otherwise, enjoy the grind.
If you can do well in arena, 7 wins guarantees you to get at least your gold back as well as the guaranteed pack, so you can go infinite if you can average 7 wins. That's tough though. I believe 5 wins guarantees a profit or a 'discounted' pack.
Arena also helps you practice mechanics, mulliganing, etc. I had my first 12-0 run today but I was unfortunately teaching a friend while playing on his account. Poor guy didn't even realize how monumental what I was doing was.
It's awesome that you're a month and a half in and you're already researching the meta. I didn't become that invested until like 6+ months of playing the game. My mistake. Probably could have been legend with my eyes closed if I hadn't played with ignorance while focusing mainly on WoW. Patron warrior is crazy good and doesn't require many (if any) legendaries to play. Grommash isn't even run in most of the pro lists lately. Harrison Jones is, but he can be replaced even with something as basic as acidic ooze.
I'm assuming, since you're playing patron, that you have unlocked both adventures and gotten those cards. That is the best value buy in hearthstone. Naxxramas especially has tons of cards that are in the meta game.
When I first started building my collection, the basic recommendation was to craft the best all-around, neutral legendaries first. As the game grows, however, those become fewer and farther in between. Now the consensus advice seems to be find a class/deck that's good that you also really enjoy playing, and keep building up your collection around that. If you like patron, you can start building up your collection of cards for patron and control warrior. Control warrior, however, is unfortunately the most expensive deck to play in the game.
