A lot of the decks will just be previous expansion’s budget builds, maybe with a new card or two. That’s why this update is going to be quite weak. Sure, there are some examples, like Druid or Shaman – those classes have good, cheap, standalone cards that can be used in budget versions of their decks. Maybe Warrior? The class has got some nice Control/Armor package – well, too bad, there’s Odyn, Prime Designate you need to play. Rogue? Mech package sucks without Mimiron, the Mastermind – that’s the main card activating the whole thing. Same thing with Mage’s Spell School/”Rainbow” package – Sif is required (not to mention that the deck needs tons of Epics). To give you some examples – Death Knight’s Plague package needs to be played as a whole, and it requires a Legendary. A lot of the classes got full, build-around packages that simply can’t be played on budget. Most of the strongest cards from TITANS were also expensive. While a lot of the full meta decks got massive power uplifts, the same can’t be said about budget decks. Sadly, TITANS is one of the worst budget expansions we had in a long time. When it comes to building budget decks, some expansions are clearly better than others. Pozzik, Audio Engineer – if you don’t have it, all you need to do is buy a single Festival of Legends pack and go to the pack opening screen, you will get the card automatically). This includes all of the Core Set Legendaries, as well as Legendaries that were given out for free in the current Standard rotation (e.g. Legendaries are completely excluded UNLESS they are available for free. Even in the worst-case scenario we try to keep it down to a few Epics, but if choosing between a deck that has to include four Epics and a deck that is completely unplayable, we’ll choose the former. Epics are often key cards in a given build, so removing them is either impossible, or would drop down decks win rate by a huge margin. If a deck can be built with no Epics at all, that’s great. It’s very easy to get a full Common & Rare collection (especially with the no duplicate rule across all rarities), and even if you’re missing some of them, they’re cheap to craft.Īs for the Epics – if it’s not possible, we try to not include them. When it comes to Commons & Rares – it’s simple, all of them are allowed. However, their real cost is usually much lower, because players tend to own a lot of Commons / Rares used in them already. Overall, there’s no hard cutoff, but we try to keep the decks within the 2-3k Dust range (Dust cost listed next to decks below isn’t always accurate, since it includes cards that are given away for free). We’re trying our best to keep the budget decks as cheap as possible while making them as strong as we can. No matter if you want to do Daily Quests for another class, test a deck before crafting a full version or just play around with different options, they should be a good option for new and F2P players alike. So once they commit to crafting some cards, if they want to switch to another class – tough luck! That’s why we think that those budget decks can come really handy. F2P players should easily be able to build one or two full meta decks per expansion, but the issue is that they can’t play whatever they want. While things have gotten much better for new and F2p players, it’s hard to deny that the game is still quite expensive. during expansion releases, events and from outside of the game (e.g. We’re also commonly getting other free stuff like packs, Legendaries etc. The new free Core Set, as well as the current rewards system, are both pretty generous (at least by the old Hearthstone Standard). The game is in a better state than it was a while ago. You CAN hit Legend with some of them, but you would really need to master them and play very well, and by that time you most likely will have enough resources to build a full version anyway. We don’t recommend those decks in Diamond or to attempt a Legend climb, unless you replace some of the budget cards and turn them into actual meta decks. Some of the stronger builds should be viable throughout Gold and possibly even Platinum if you master them. This is unfortunate, so we’ve gone ahead and created some budget decks that should serve you well if you are in the Bronze or Silver divisions. There are a ton of Legendaries released, and if you are unlucky you may have not received much in the way of playable cards. One of the big complaints about Hearthstone is the price to pay (to play) when you first start.
