Best video ever?
YES I LOVE IT. Thanks Ben for doing some strong shit here
Such a good video Ben. Really like it, it’s awesome to see your growth as a content creator. Keep it up!
So I guess able to hit 9k with no exploits only playing on my phone is quite an accomplishment 😀
Am I the only one who loves all of these exploits (besides rank floor)?
Enabeling high APM plays & teaming up is the best part of the game!
Thanks Ben.
Nice vid Ben!
Been looking forward to this video since you mentioned it.
Great job! Loving your content brother, keep it up!
I’ve played since 2014 and there’s been so many broken things about this game. And I took almost a year off as I was so damn frustrated with constructed.
Used to play magic and quit because $$$ then this was my go to. But $$$ so I exclusively play BGs and it’s been so hot and cold.
Nice mate! I too started battlegrounds when it first came out and consider myself at least in the top third of players (maybe) but I still love these videos of yours that explain things that I already knew. You're just such a great guy I guess.
I’m 8k mmr playing only on mobile. I didn’t know the difference was so big. I’m now happy about my mmr considering the situation lol
Awesome documentary.
Not surprised battlegrounds is the most popular. Came back to hearthstone after a couple of years and it would take to much time or money to get viable decks for regular ranked. Just check the insane prices in to shop and you realize regular hearthstone works as an insidious cash grabbing mobile game
for the algo <3
Wahoo. 8-9k player here. Playing since launch… Now i understand the ceiling i m confronted to. Now i just play on my phone. Very casually. so much better for my sanity 🤣🤣🤣
Be careful with these types of videos, you can end up in Blizzard jail. Anyway, a very interesting video.
I forgot the poggo-hoppers!! Why did they have to remove them?? T_T
I am so glad the days of firewall and chad transitions are behind us.
legit crazy video so good
I didn't knew kadgar transition got nerfed, what happenned ? 'cause kadgar and the tokens are still in the game
This is some Top Tier Content Ben, I asolutely love it! 🔥
Best video ever Ben 🙂 You are a great content creator 🙂 More of videos like this please
I want to know about that framework workaround.
Battlegrounds is more fun than the regular game, no netdecking.

Great video essay style

I would love to see a skip combat animation function for mobile. Especially when you're fighting an scallywag exodia or an leapfrogger opponent. Sometimes you wont even have a turn left after the combat and go straight into a seccond, third of even fourth fight

Didn't you have a live streaming channel?
god damn animations- I played a game recently where someone was playing Sneeds of all things in a fairly high MMR lobby, and the deathrattle animations were so slow my turn got literally nozdormu-rope skipped. Twice. I didn't get to do a single interaction with Bob until 3 rounds later. If I were in a tournament and that happened to me, I would rage
Battlegrounds will always feel like a broken game mode because it's insane power spikes.
But I still think it is quite balanced
Not to mention the players in lower ranks are exploiting XP with macros for the Pass to get the 400 Levels and a ton of Gold, so there are also shenanigans at the other side of the wall.
It's just a game, calm down.
So thats why ive literally never had an 8 player lobby everybodys a weird cheater
Brilliant vid
Remember the bug where RNG would resolve client-side instead of server-side, then get sent to the server?
It was only in the game for a couple of days after one unassuming patch, but it meant that you could win a battle on your screen, but also take damage because your opponent won the battle on their screen.
Good times 🙂
Should rename the title to "How Players Are Fixing This Card Game" afterall they only come up with fixes to a broken game.
the crazy interations are what makes the game fun, if they removed all of them then they'd kill the game imo
except for poison spam, that shit needs to end.
I was wondering why streamer's animations were much faster than mine… I thought it was because I was on a mac. The faster animations make a HUGE difference. Thank YOU !
I've always loved video essays, I just didn't realize you'd be this good at them. Good job! Great video
Feels really good having a 9k rating on mobile with no help.
Hilarious that kids need 3rd party programs to play such a simple game.
Infinite Gold is part of the pirate strat, wouldn't call that breaking the game like any of the exploits. Shame that was included!
Great vid. Subbed
Great video.
I played HS from beta, in middle I took pause because meta was broken and I couldn't keep up as f2p for few expansions. I came back with battlegrounds and played A LOT of them, it was great, I really loved it. I totally quit my beloved standard HS mode because I just couldn't keep up with new decks/meta. After few broken BG metas and short pauses I enjoyed a lot of BGs. Finally I quit HS for good with introduction of buddies. I was severly limited by my laptop, some of (apm pirates etc.) strats where literally unplayable and meta was so broken I was done with this shit. Lag, absurd rng, slow animations and insane combos just pissed me off to the oblivion. Even tho I was fairly good at BGs.
You guys keep going, enjoy that SLOT MACHINE.
Who the fuck try hards HS battlegrounds lol
Does the speeding up animations by editing the config file editing your frame rate still work, and if so is it "legal" by TOS standards?
