more I have played this game for pretty much a decade and it’s got better and better over time. I basically only play battlegrounds now which is really enjoyable and always being refreshed. I just have one critique please add an “end turn” button on battlegrounds. If not everyone clicks it then we just keep the normal time but everyone does the next turn starts. I’m relatively slow player but would just speed things up every now and then.

I initially played the game since the second year of its conception until the its 4th. I then deleted the game because I thought the game was unbalanced and the development team did not care enough to regularly monitor the meta balance. Since then I returned to the game twice for short periods of time. In both times I saw that the UI and the game’s complexity improved a lot but at the expense of further worsening of the balancing of the game. I only play wild mode because I love using all the cards I acquired through different expansions. It’s fun to see how different expansions interact when combined together. However the game won’t allow it because it’s so heavily leaning towards very aggressive or Infinite loop decks that other archetypes are dead on arrival. Decks like libram paladin & infinite shudderwock shaman. I’m again deleting the game for another couple of years in the hope that when I return it may have become a little better 🤷♂️

I came back to give this game another chance, but I've decided to delete it for good. The game has become completely unpredictable and devoid of any balance. Everything that happens on the board feels like 100% RNG, making skill irrelevant. Every new mechanic introduced is worse than the previous one. The power creep is insane – cards added in recent updates are 100 times stronger than the older ones, rendering all the old cards completely meaningless. It's simply not fun to play anymore. This is supposed to be a competitive game, but it's completely unsuitable for that format now. For the last 10 years, the developers have just made the game worse and worse. I logged in to play, but I realized immediately that I'm done. Don't waste your time. Uninstalling now.

I am a long time HS player on and off. My advice is just don't download this game. The main problem is this game is NOT FUN for the following reasons:1. Your are winning hard = you drew well and your opponent drew badly. Zero satisfaction. Vice versa is also true, you feel powerless when losing hard just because you drew badly. NOT FUN2. You are playing a close game, then your opponent gets a RANDOM card that wins them the game. You again feel powerless & frustrated because the outcome of the game is out of your hand. Again zero satisfaction and fun.3. You win a close game because you got a random card. Zero satisfaction, you won a game because pure dumb luck. NOT FUNHearthstone is one of they VERY few games that does NOT feel good whether you are winning or losing. The MAIN aim of casual games is FUN and this is the worst game for that because you NEVER feel fulfilled whether winning or losing. There 0 scenarios when playing this game to actually feel good currently. I could write more about the extreme RNG & power creep over the years but you get it. Do NOT waste your time on this game.P.S I am a strictly arena player because ranked is horrible
