I am very bad a building decks, so I am looking for a website/program where people post good decks. I would then enter all the cards I currently have, and it would match my cards with decks that I could build. I have not spent any money, so I have a very limited set of cards, so it is very difficult for me to find a deck that I can build that someone else has posted.
Hearthstone
Game » consists of 3 releases. Released Mar 11, 2014
A Free-to-Play collectible card game by Blizzard Entertainment set in the Warcraft universe.
Looking for an automated deck builder
nothing automatic but HearthHead and HearthPwn both have deck builders and deck repositories for you to copy off of.
For what it's worth, I do recommend trying your best to look a little bit into deck making fundamentals. It's actually a lot easier when you only have commons to work with, because there just aren't that many synergies you even have to worry about taking advantage of. You can look up some basic concepts like a "mana curve" and "card advantage", and figure out a rough ratio of how many spells/equipment vs. minions your deck should have.
When starting out, pick a class you feel comfortable playing, where you know which class cards are pretty good and how to use them, and which class cards require too much setup and/or don't really have enough impact (Totemic Might, for example, is hardly ever worth using). Fill out the rest of the deck with common neutral minions that seem reasonably annoying for your opponent to get rid of for their mana cost. Chillwind Yeti, Harvest Golem, Argent Squire, and a few others fit that bill.
And keep in mind that no matter how well you do this, your deck will be kind underpowered because most of the classes have some pretty key cards to their whole strategy, and often those cards are rare or epic. It takes time, and when your deck is mostly commons, you might as well mess around with it yourself, because even if you look one up online, it's not going to be totally amazing or anything.
Another utility is TempoStorm.com. It's the site for an "official" Hearthstone team created by one of my favorite Hearthstone Streamers, Reynad. A lot of the videos they have there are premium (don't pay for premium) - but they do deck techs where they walk you through the decks, explain why each card is in the deck, and show you the deck played in action.
I randomly made this earlier, 8 rares I think (not counting the free Nerubian Eggs), before Unstable Ghoul comes around its pretty silly, and the 3/7 Void Terror two 4/4s turn 3 dream is nice:
Void Terror seems like its going to be a fairly common card in most future warlock decks, as with echoing ooze/kings for paladins.
@fredchuckdave: Looks like fun. Did you try it with Ancient Watchers at all, in place of maybe the Shieldbearers or Defender of Argus?
@bisonhero: Argus (or sunfury protector) is mandatory, shieldbearer is definitely up in the air. This deck will eventually shift to the midgame along with the meta and it'll have leeroy/shadowflame etc. (I refuse to craft Leeroy for the time being), at that point I'm not sure if any 1 drop other than argent squire sticks around. Shieldbearer mainly counters warrior, but it might suck once the 4 attack warrior weapon is around. I think Flame Imp is soon to be a dead card outside of arena, though maybe not forever. Seems like it totally annihilates miracle.
Just your everyday average game against miracle (he even had betrayal, didn't matter much):
I put in Hellfire instead of Argent squire, seems to work out pretty well if you're behind or for lategame damage.
Honestly, anything by Trump is a sure thing. He even has really well made 'free-to-play' decks that won't cost you a dime, or any time invested to get. I'm pretty sure he's even made it to legendary with those decks, but I could be mistaken.
I'd start there, and then start to build more complex decks as you go.
The iPad app "Deck Simulator for Hearthstone" allows you to test different card and deck ideas using simulations without having owned the cards yourself. It won't do all the deckmaking for you but it can be a valuable tool to assist in deck construction and avoid wasting precious dust.
