    • @AreYouShore464
      @AreYouShore464 9 років тому

      I'm certainly not disagreeing with you. A hefty play session today experimenting with the hunter (still fairly new) taught me the importance of card draw. Substituting in some battlecries/deathrattles for draw has led me to making a stable-ish deck for a relatively new player lacking lots of key cards.

    I see a lot of people complaining about the RNG element in this game. While luck is present, I think its effect is entirely phased out by a few things:
    1) The fact that the game was played best of five. This falls into the same vain as the law of large numbers.
    2) The fact that each player includes cards that allow them to "counteract" the RNG.
    3) Several other things, but I'm to tired to think right now...
    Goodnight Y'all.

    • @stephenk-b3100

      5 isn't a large number.

    • @MrCoolgae
      @MrCoolgae 10 років тому +1

      Stephen K-B No, but it's large enough that it counteracts the RNG, and even then it's the same for both players, meaning no comparative advantages.
      I play Hearthstone (granted I'm not very good) and I don't see RNG effecting the game much.

    • @stephenk-b3100
      @stephenk-b3100 10 років тому +1

      it's still kinda small like that law applies for numbers many multiples larger than 5 before it starts evening out. Although I saw some pretty good plays that card draw was really disgusting. but that's just all I noticed really : s

    • @MrCoolgae
      @MrCoolgae 10 років тому +1

      Stephen K-B Even then, RNG didn't put that card in his deck, and even after that, if he didn't win that match, he would have won the next. He totally out classed his opponent. Building your deck in a fashion to counteract the RNG is a huge part of the game.

    @Kirkeuglen 10 років тому +99

    If you removed all RNG from the game, the game would be a whole lot easier to become good at. One of the reasons the game actually has a pretty high skill-cap is in fact due to the RNG involved. Reasons for that is:
    1. The RNG makes it hard for players to know when they played very well or when they were just lucky. This is the same reasons why bad poker players keep playing poker - they don't know they're bad, because sometimes they win big, because there is so much luck/variance involved, thus making them believe they are actually good.
    2. All the RNG involved in the game makes the game overall more complex to understand properly. Chess is a game with a very high skill cap, but with no RNG involved at all. However, the skill-cap is not THAT hard to reach. Top players in the world have arguably solved the game (knowing all the right moves for many moves forward). At least computers have done that for sure. On the other hand; look at poker. In poker there is a whole lot of luck/RNG involved, however the skillcap is absurdly high. The game is so complex that it currently isn't even close to being solved by humans nor computers.
    The luck involved in Hearthstone of course means that over a short number of games, luck is very dominant factor. Over a large number of games, like when you play 100's of games of ladder to climb in rank, skill is dominant factor, as luck will be evened out.

    • @deathislife1993
      @deathislife1993 10 років тому +6

      I think this is a very-well written response to the complaints about RNG. Personally, I can't believe some people think this game is all luck. Partly, yes, but to think it's all luck is just insane.

    • @Andrew-xc9ov
      @Andrew-xc9ov 10 років тому +5

      RNG is a fun aspect of the game, and is the reason why a lot of people play it. If they completely removed it to be honest I think there would be much less players

    • @paptimusscirocco8033
      @paptimusscirocco8033 10 років тому +4

      the RNG makes you think about your next step more carefully and consider all possibilities, was tindler expecting 2 silences in a row? No, the chances for that were too small, so he gambled on that chance, in most cases it would have been fine, but firebat was blessed with his draws in that last match.

    • @starrecipe9
      @starrecipe9 10 років тому +8

      Chess has not been solved. The best players in the world, programs ran on computers, still lose games when matched against equally skilled opponents. I agree with your point though. Probabilistic games with incomplete information (neither player knows everything about the state of the game) tend to be incredibly complex. The problem is that you have to account for your opponent's behavior when calculating odds, all the while they are accounting for your behavior. It becomes immensely complex very quickly. In chess there is a psychological factor, but in a philosophical sense you're just judging the position on the board.

      @AlexeyFilippenkoPlummet 10 років тому +1

      ODog LP sort of dirty play, yeah. That would definetely made me uncomfortable, I hate when people do this. When they aim at your minion for half a minute before the attack, it feels like they are pointing a finger right at your face, half an inch off your nose, and just stand like this mocking you.
      Imagine a real card game where someone takes a card, points it to your face and just sits like this for 10 seconds. Then he plays this card, takes another and repeats. And the whole game he acts like this. I think he wouldn't get away with it. But not in HS.

      @tobiashauser3158 10 років тому +2

    @Perpluid 10 років тому +1

    I think they should have made the final match best 3 out of 5. They could add some more variety by giving the players choices, like they could bring 3 classes and choose 2 decks they can use twice, bring 4 classes and use one deck twice, or bring 5 different classes and get no repeats. Either way the more matches in a series the more likely it is that the better player will win and leave less to luck and RNG imo.

    • @2LettersSho
      @2LettersSho 10 років тому +8

      The thing is that his "aggro playstyle" was highly convenient at this tournament as there was so much handlock and other control being played. A lot of players only packed one or two decks to beat aggro so he just brought more aggro than they could easily beat. He did his homework, read the meta really well and got the money.

    • @hrwhahaha
      @hrwhahaha 10 років тому

      That's is true.
      It is just that I don't 'like' aggro. But it is a good read and good meta call. That's always why paladin and frost mage is the meta this time.

    • @Gucci05xx
      @Gucci05xx 10 років тому

      I literally just started playing this game less than a month ago and my "Druid Aggro" deck. Pisses people off that "threaten" emote comes out more and more as the game progresses. No i didn't waste money on cards. Taunts...All except patriarch, druid taunt cards +1,+1 cards and few heal cards = QQ and game over. Lost once to a full Epic and Legendary deck, or close enough to full.

    I don't know about you guys, but all of the finals games and semi-final games... all the "card draws" and "hands" seem oddly tampered with. You'll have to go back and see, but it just didn't seem natural how "even" all the games seemed.

    All the bitching and moaning about RNG, I swear. Have you played past rank 15 in the ladder? Sure, luck is involved, but when you get higher up in the ladder, you'll see that people have long, hard-thought plans. I myself have only gotten to a max of 10 or so, but I have a real life friend, whom I've watched, get to legend, and he calculates everything, even the most minute of possibilities. Don't like a bit of luck, don't play a card game.

    • @paptimusscirocco8033
      @paptimusscirocco8033 10 років тому +3

      that is a fact, people like to blame RNG as a excuse to not getting better ranks, its easier to say "oh i'm not higher ranked because my luck sucks" than "dang i didn't plan properly"

    • @ThouArtOfWar
      @ThouArtOfWar 10 років тому

      Paptimus Scirocco Well there is a huge luck factor based on the draws. However skill still needs to be applied in order to be successful. Combos card selection etc.
