<p>30-31st August: Warhorns Folk/Black Metal Festival, probably not going due to it being moved to another city - but a few great bands on.
<br />
14th September: Village Beer Festival - Drinking beer in a graveyard, whilst children throw toys from the steeple.
<br />
14th September: Seems afterwards I've got tickets for a Wrestling Event in town.
<br />
2nd November: Damnation Festival - A host of amazing bands, including Opeth, Alcest.
<br />
9th November: Limehouse Lizzy - Thin Lizzy cover band that play locally.
<br />
22 or 23 Nov: Otley Beer Festival - The best beer festival I've been to, just a pity it finishes around 6pm.
<br />
23rd November: Ghost - supposedly great band, though might go straight from beer festival to them!
<br />
28th November: Cult of Luna - another interesting band.</p>

Well these can work, but there's too many options out there for victory - from Kingsbane/Mecha-thuun/Quest or Freeze Mage or my favourite CthunWock.
<p>And since Reno was rotating out they never had to Hall of Fame it (btw remember to craft this years Hall of Fame entries for free cards (dust refund & keep cards)).</p>
<p>Just having good cards can work sometimes but not against those with dedicated 'win-conditions'.</p>Just a Mort wrote:Vidmaster7 wrote: Just a Mort wrote: Nekkid Vidmaster7 wrote: Tequila Sunrise wrote:In Hearthstone news, I'm finding myself wishing for a format comparable to Magic's modern format -- everything allowed except the Hall of Famers.
Yes, there's nothing quite so irritating as whittling an opponent down to single digits using careful tactics, only to have them bounce back to 30 using Reno.
...After googling the Hall of Fame, why is Reno not in it?! He is obnoxious.
