- I just got a beta key for Blizzards new pay-to-play Magic: The Gathering clone. Hearthstone has the best looking and feeling interface of most virtual card games I've played, so it's a pleasant experience, if maybe a bit simplistic.
- Completed all the tutorial battles without ever coming close to losing, including the battle against Illidan Stormrage, even though the game warned me that the battle was 'not fair' and I should 'blame the game designers'. I blame them for making games that are so well-balanced, that they never could be considered unfair.
- Made a custom Murloc Swarm deck for my Paladin and beat Uther Lightbringer and thus unlocked him for playing myself.
- Defeated Gul'dan the Warlock using a basic Paladin deck.
- Hmm... You can't get more than 30 health for your hero.
- Also, your Hero is a Character.
- Beat Rexxar the Hunter.
- Yay, I lost a game! To the Druid.
- Got the Druid with my Hunter.
- Defeated the Warrior with my Hunter.
- My Warrior lost to the Shaman.
- Damn, my MacBook Pro just had the craziest case of screen corruption. Random pixels everywhere, it's insane. Maybe I should try rebooting.
- Accomplished Beat all Normal Practice opponents.
- Yes, there are Expert level practice opponents as well!
- Defeated Expert Mage with a basic Priest deck without taking damage. FLAWLESS VICTORY! This game is too easy.
- Defeated Expert Hunter with a basic Paladin.
- Defeated Expert Warrior with a basic Warlock.
- Defeated Expert Shaman with a basic Warlock.
- Defeated Expert Druid with a basic Warlock.
- Defeated Expert Priest with a basic Warlock.
- Defeated Expert Rogue with a basic Warlock.
- Defeated Expert Paladin with a custom Warlock.
- Accomplished Crushed Them All!. - Defeated Expert Warlock with a custom Warlock.
- Completed the game (Single-player). That seems to be all the single-player content in Hearthstone.
- Blizzard released some new single-player content, so I am in. I've completed Curse of Naxramas: Arachnid Quarter (the only 'story' part that is unlocked yet), and the two Class Challenges, for Druid and Rogue. There is still 'Heroic' mode left...
- Played a game against Anub'Rekhan on Heroic difficulty. I got it down to 2 health before I lost, so it definitely seems possible.
