It is still considered cheating, and he knows your cards while you don't know his, he is in advantage already with his planning. If you aren't playing swiss, you have enough time for everything.
Btw, currently testing Nergal slowpoke(just for testing, I hate these kind of decks), and it is stupidly powerful even without single one Throne of Renewal, I don't have any. I feel pathetic, people can't do anything, they just sit there and watch you recycle all your important spells, fortunes and paos, while you poke them... slowly...
a nergal slowpoke, the carcass of the red emperor drags itself from beneath a muddy rock, ears pricked up, you said a neragl slowpoke... show me my precioussssss... plz
Wait, you are an 1500 player, it isn't possible for you to not know what Nergal slowpoke is... or is it? O.o

Some variations.
Why is it so strong and what is different from Dhamiria? Well, the fact that you can recycle anything you want and that you need. Few games I was with just 1 Stone Shield/Altar of Shadows, and didn't get any in my drawing phase, but I just recycled that single one until I got more.
You can use Wasteland up to 8 times, or even worse, Stone Shield up to 12 times.
I am playing it without Throne of Renewal(don't have any) and I have solid winning streak at my level for now, still didn't lose a game with it. Some of the versions go with From Whom the Bell Tolls, because it is cheaper way to wipe the board, and it is wiped in next turn, so you have all your resources.
EDIT: Just took a closer look at second version by PlineQ, and he has no Wastelands, don't know why, they are the key to this deck.

I know, but the thing is one can generally know the vibe on the stat build of opponent and what spells schools their hero can use...like if has fire and going level 4 magic, don't place troops adjascent to each other, common sense.

So decided to let Cassandra retire and started playing Sandal. My "final" version of the deck: http://www.momcards.fr/fr/deck/view/2882.html#main -> i think this might be the strongest haven deck right now and is definitely one of the best decks vs Ammar.
--------------------------
Today i played my first jackpot with Sandal and i have to say i'm very... disappointed. I lost many games, i couldn't reach 200 TELO. Finally about an hour before the end of the tournament i switch to Cassa and started a chase against others and time. I manage to get around 150 points (i think i lost only 1-2 games out of 7-9) in an hour; yeah im kinda bragging but the point is that:
- switching to a new deck is hard
- it takes time to learn a new deck
- and i shouldn't think that other decks are easier and i should just switch to get better results.
I'm writing it b/c it wasn't obvious for me and maybe it's not obvious for others.

Indeed. I think there is a problem with M&M team's output (= games like H6). I'm not blaming anybody, it might be that they are just underfunded.
One of the problem is that they are not treating is a online game - no hot fixes, balance patches or patches in general are relatively rare.
I haven't played Hearthstone, just watched it but as far as i understand one draws a card at the end of a turn - this is great when you cannot act during your opponent turn. You can think of your strategy when your opponent is playing.
Which flaws are you referring to exactly.

Uplay: ZergRusher | H6: Thoughts on duels | DoC: Cassa

Nameless, there are many things I like about Hearthstone - faster pace, direct hero attacks, arena mode(in which you make a deck from random cards and play until you lose three times for prizes), etc. But this is what I feel about DoC after playing:
1. DoC is very complex and tactical game, and I love this complexity. However for me personally there are way too much removal in the game, and creature/buffing decks are weak.
2. Hearthstone is much better funded. There are distinct animations for all spells and effects, voiceovers for attacks/deployment etc and it does add something to the game(although no practical advantages)
3. About card draw, you do draw in the beginning of you turn, and extra draw powers/cards ar far and between. So the number of cards you have is really important.
4. But most importantly for me, in HS classes feel really.. Different? Look at Nergal slowpoke.just how many real necro cards ar in there? 5-6? I'm so sick of almost every deck in DoC using paos, and to a lesser extent DA's. I actually refuse to use them(and I hav four of each!). In HS every class actually uses its native abilities and mechanics, and unique neutrals are nowhere near as important as paos in DoC..
Saying this, I still consider DoC to be a better game, partially due to it being the part of M&M universe, which in my opinion is way better then Warcraft lore post WoW..

As a person who has never been interested in Card Games, I sometimes open streams of people like Totalbiscuit when they are streaming Hearthstone and I enjoy them. The few times I tried to watch DoC I got bored
(There's a HearthStone thread in the OGET, in case you want to talk about just HS there )

Was that because the game was not easy to follow?

Lol - Elvin.
Back to DoC now:
Infernal pit - I looked in the pit this morning and saw an Archlich. Wow! A green card from the base set! Would be nice if they had more FW cards in the pit now together with tossing in rare/epics.
I think the pit should only have rare/epics now, as no one would sacrifice cards anymore for lesser stuff (as we now have the wild cards option).

Sure, but shiny VR packs you can buy with gold now...
My point is, now with Wild cards, the Infernal Pit seems unimportant now, especially with common/uncommon base sets on offer!

So Nameless. Playing your cass
It's a good deck, but a T1? I would not even go as far as calling it relaibable. Its just so weak against sevral situations. Like week of Taxes Rush decks. As a Rush deck in it self it lacks a lot if the oponent breaks its first burst. Works but I would not call it a TOP deck.

I think that Uraxor's version of Cass fortune is better but its extremely reliable. I am currently at 89% win rate with it. You have to abuse the fortunes...which by the way is why singularity is an important missing piece. Multiple prisons in a game alone is enough to win.
