I don&#8217;t know who&#8217;s playing in which time-zone at those times, but it&#8217;s how I got to Platinum. And the thing is, I did it after I go my 500th priest win. After all the grinding, I went ahead and played two more games to get to the next floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So there&#8217;s two milestones knocked out. I have earned my hangover. I should take a break from hearthstone now, at least until the new moth begins, but I&#8217;m kind of eager to see which class rustles my jimmies for the next haul. For the record, Shaman is the class that lags behind the most for me. Also, I didn&#8217;t see them too much on the ladder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or whatever, but I doubt I&#8217;ll hit Platinum five. But that&#8217;s okay. I now have a golden priest that I can ignore for the next few years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" data-attachment-id=\"2093\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.bukkhead.com\/blog\/priest-500\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.bukkhead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/priest-500.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"800,800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"priest-500\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.bukkhead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/priest-500-300x300.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.bukkhead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/priest-500.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bukkhead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/priest-500.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2093\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bukkhead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/priest-500.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.bukkhead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/priest-500-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bukkhead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/priest-500-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bukkhead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/priest-500-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bukkhead.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/priest-500-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A lot of things happened today.
