Hearthstone on android

[Archer]

Came out a few days ago, so far only for devices with screens 6" and up, but I trying a workaround to get it working on a Nexus 4. Now I'll finally be able to play during lunch

Searched a bit, here is how to get it working:

Got it to work That link doesn't work for me since I'm on 5.0 already (xposed wont run). But if you have root, just sideload the apk and obb files, hop into a terminal emulater, change your screen size to something upwards of 1200x2000 and you're golden

Works nicely on my Note 3 using the Reddit instructions.

Er, not sure what the policy on necroing threads is but it seemed pointless to start a new one.

Anybody playing this? The wife and I have been housesitting in a place with spotty internet so I made up for my lack of DotA with Hearthstone. Got a new phone (Smart Ultra 6) and I have to say, the Android experience is pretty damn good. Well laid out menus. Obviously drains the battery quite fast but I could imagine it being great on a public transport commute.

I played a bit for a while but got discouraged because it definetely rewards people who can spend a lot of cash on expansions and adventures.

I got absolutely destroyed by Grim Patron spam 3 games out of 5 and lost interest.

I shudder to think what completely unbalanced hands are at play now.

Not really, same as any F2P game. You can grind it out or pay up...

Na grim patrons have been completely nerfed.
And If you have the time you can grind out all the adventures and legendaries

Grim Patron hasnt been touched.

It's the Warsong Commander that was nerfed. Ironically, the deck still saw a fair amount of play at blizzcon and just added some late game cards like grom etc and it was actually winning games.. Not as dominant though Ladders are still filled with secret paladin though

Yeah lol. I mean the grim patron deck itself. The whole mechanic was nerfed

Secret paladin is not that much of a problem for me. I play dragon priest. Turn 6 I usually just attack trigger all the traps then lightbomb

Play mid range Hunter with a singelton flare if the secret-din is giving you problems. The secret-din is probably ready for a nerf of some sort.

The problem with the secret-din is that it simply excells in all three stages of the game. In the early turns you can do some stellar secret keeper plays if you draw into that. For the mid game turns you can do some great Murloc Knights plays and the late game Mysterious challenger and Tirion got you covered.

Except maybe for the few do nothing secrets you play to make the Mysterious Challenger work there really si no cards in the deck that are not completely excellent on it's own.

I'm glad patron warrior got nerfed. The fact that hearthstone decks only have thirty cards in the deck makes it so that any sort of OTK will always be degenerate
