Battlegrounds Strategy

[positiv2 952]

This thread is for comments about our Hearthstone Battlegrounds Strategy guide.

[Guest typo]

In the last paragraph, I think a "Divine Shield" is missing after "Taunt" to make the strategy outlined in the sentence make more sense.

For example, if you know your opponent has a 29/29 Taunt minion, you may choose to make your first minion a weak 2/2 Lightfang Enforcer, followed by a 30/30 Nightmare Amalgam to efficiently take out your opponent's Taunt minion.

You can find it here: https://www.icy-veins.com/hearthstone/hearthstone-battlegrounds-strategy-tips

It is in our "Hearthstone" menu, under Battlegrounds.

Minions will always be instantly combined when you purchase your 3rd copy, regardless of whether they are in your hand or in play. Additionally, the new minion will retain any buffs placed on the first 2 minions.

This is not correct. Most of the time this is what one observes, but e.g.:
2 unbuffed amalgams on board, one amalgam in the store and you have dancin daryl as a hero, you can get buffs on the 3rd (unpurchased) amalgam. Your text says it becomes a 6/8, truth is: the buffs from "hat trick" are retained as well.

I can’t believe you actually have a section entitled battlegrounds strategy....... you realise that their isn’t any strategy don’t you. Their are game winning cards and combos and then their is everything else. You either get lucky and get the cards and combos or you don’t. That’s all their is to it. Luck. No skill, no cleaver moves, no amazing choices that no one would think of. Just luck. Lots and lots of luck. You cannot win battlegrounds with skill as their is no way to use that skill without first having luck, and if your lucky then you don’t need skill as the picks are obvious.

If you don't think there is strategy involved, you have either been beat up and discouraged for playing it or understand how it works inherently. For people new to auto-battlers and hearthstone, there is room to learn. Sadly, these guides are pretty outdated as well as basic.

You think their is strategy?? Really..... I mean really....... You actually think their is strategy. See good card, buy good card and win. Don’t get good card, can’t buy good card and loose. That’s all their is. The only person that decides if you win or lose is the computer. It decides what cards to put in front of you.
Looking for that card to finish your build? role through 3 turns and you’ll never see it, where is the strategy their? Then see your opponent who has 3 gold copies of their most needed cards. Really don’t see how their is any strategy involved in losing 95% of games you attempt. The game is only fun for those 4% of times you get given the perfect build and the 1% of times your opponents don’t get anything either and you fluke a win. 1 vs 8 and only the computer decides who is top
