Dunno why anyone would be against the rank floor thing, the difference is negligible. How often do people drop significantly below the rank they've achieved? I've played since Beta and I don't think I ever dropped below 20/15/10 after getting above it. Dropped below 5 maybe once or twice. It's just a nice little safety net that might save you a few games played on your climb.

hearthstone is all about fucking RNG for the most part.

if it wasn't for me investing so much time/money, I would have quit this garbage a long time ago.

Your win entirely depends on your draws and your opponent's.

I don't think I've ever played a game that was as frustrating and boring as ''climbing'' in Hearthstone.

You play hearthstone because you're afraid of moving on from your childhood

Factoring past costs into decisions about how to spend time/ money in the future is illogical.

Edit: example: Let's say you bought a piano for 5000$. Then you realize that you hate playing on it. Should you still play on it because you have spent so much money on it? No. It's irrelevant how much it costed.

Correct but why would you quit Hearthstone because of that? Game is awesome.

E/ nvm I see you're responding to someone who said they won't quit Hearthstone because they spent a lot of money on it.

Though even taking into account the sunk cost fallacy, the psychological effect of feeling like you wasted money is still real.

And TIME brother.

The game is fun to me.. but not climbing.

I have a lot more fun farming scrubs at rank 20 wild playing tier 2 or 3 decks and still winning most of the time

At least I get to see all type of decks, not just shaman shaman shaman shaman warrior shaman shaman warlock shaman shaman shaman mage.

I see some hunters there ;/


If I was forced to just play to climb.. then id quit for real I think

Ahhh okay fair enough.

I'm sure there's some counter argument to be made there.. Maybe not so much pertaining to hearthstone but... considering its just a game and all.

What if you hate children, but you end up having one. Should you not invest your time and money?
I guess morals play a pretty big factor..
this is too much, im too tired atm.
