Anyone have suggestions on the best way to get more card packs? I've been mostly F2P and it's a slow grind.

Tips welcome via post or PM! Cheers

If you really wanna speed it up drop to rank 20 and farm wins.

Win one concede one.

At rank 20 the decks and players usually suck really hard.

Play as much as you can and try to reroll your quests to 60 gold.

follow this tutorial to get 3 free card packs from the samsung galaxy card giveaway.
Play one game with that emulated phone to get another pack (no matter if you win or lose. I think you may not concede to finish it quickly).
emulate a random android tablet (the last possible option in that emulator) and play 1 game to get one more card pack
--> it might take a few hours due to ~4gb download (you need to install hearthstone twice), but you get 5 cardpacks.

Long story short: you get 1 cardpack each if you play one heartstone game from the following devices:
- android smartphone
- android tablet
- ios smartphone (aka iPhone)
- ios tablet (aka iPad)
- 3 additional packs from using a Samsung Galaxy S5 (Model SM-G920F)

You do not have to emulate devices if you got "real ones" that are able to launch Hearthstone. There are no emulators to quickly emulate an iphone / ipad (there might be, but no free and simple ones like android device emulator).

You also want to win one tavern brawl per week (1 free card pack per week) and always, always hit at least rank 20 in ranked play for the cardback and the end-of-season reward

It's no big deal to climb from rank 25 to 20 (you can't even lose any progress - 25 to 20 is more like a tutorial). Getting higher in the season will reward you with a better chest (rank 15 is pretty nice - I aim for that as a minimum now and I'm also a f2p player). Don't get frustrated if you suddenly fight many people at rank 20 and 19 that got 15k dust decks or golden heros (earned after winning 500 ranked games with that hero) - it feels like every second player at low rank is farming new players nowadays.

You can concede to speed it up.

At least when those originally dropped you could. All my friends did this on our friends ipad. Sign in, start a game, insta concede, profit.

thanks for the info,
always pressing "end turn" instantly and losing in 5-7 rounds is not slow, either ^^
