aren't you the guy that burned your magic cards?

my brother and I burned our magic cards.

I burned my Hearthstone cards.

This is our song, scrub.

In all honesty I'm burned out on hearthstone

That started to happen before GVG came out for me. For the month of November I only played to keep up on quests.  I'm not quite done with GVG yet, though I'm starting to become frustrated with some of the decks on ladder.

Between Constructed and Arena, Hearthstone can never get old. Switch to the other once you get burned out on one format.

Yeah, Arena keeps me going.

I'm really liking Mill Mage at the moment! It's just so different from everything else in the meta.

Congrats man! I had wondered where that card back came from, lol.

I'm running the same deck Westy is and I've broken my record at rank 5 right now. Hopefully with two weeks to go I can be persistent enough to break through and reach it.

This is the deck I reached Legend with. It's a variant on JAB's deck, switching his Clockwork Gnomes for Leper Gnomes and a Eaglehorn Bow for a Glaivezooka. Leper Gnome often gives you that last little bit of damage that Hunters sometimes need, and Glaivezooka is excellent for surprise factor, particularly in the mirror.  Drop a Leper Gnome T1, use it to clear a 2/3 Undertaker T2, or just coin it to clear the undertaker, etc.  The deck has a fairly good Paladin matchup, 50/50 Druid matchup, poor Warrior and Druid matchups. I also don't like Shaman because unlike Druid and Paladin, Shaman can take Dr. Boom and Highmanes very easily, while still being able to counter Undertaker.  The deck is primarily face, but can also midrange very well.

If I don't have Dr. Boom but have the rest of that deck is there something I can sub in to make it still work well or does that just kill it?

I don't have the other useful legendaries like Sylvanas, Ragnaros, or Black Knight either.

You could try a second Ironbeak Owl.  It fulfills an entirely different roll, but could be a game saver. Better than black knight because it's cheap, still gets around a taunt, and is a beast.

I don't remember if I have a Sea Giant or not. If I do I'll start with him and see how that goes, otherwise I'll add the Owl. Thanks for the suggestions!

Yeah, I'm trying to work up dust again but I don't have much, certainly nowhere near the 1600 needed, haha. I'll put Boom at the top of my "to craft" list.
