Frequently Asked Questions
What is Arenasmith?
Arenasmith is a draft assistant for Hearthstone Arena and Underground Arena, built by the team behind HSReplay.net and Hearthstone Deck Tracker.
What does Arenasmith do?
Heroes and cards you are offered in a draft are automatically rated by Arenasmith based on their past in-game performance and your existing picks. It also shows card synergies, what other cards might be generated, and other helpful information.
How does Arenasmith calculate card ratings?
The card ratings are calculated across hundreds of thousands of matches from other players, and then dynamically adjusted based on the cards you have already drafted. For example, if you have already picked cards that synergize well with an offered card, Arenasmith will show a better card rating than usual for that card.
How do I access Arenasmith?
Arenasmith is a Premium feature available in Hearthstone Deck Tracker. It will automatically appear on the Arena or Underground Arena screen before you start a new draft.
Do I need to pay to use Arenasmith?
As a subscriber to our Premium or Bundle subscription, you can use Arenasmith as often as you want in your drafts.
As a free user, you can trial Arenasmith for ten drafts, and then one draft that resets each week. You can see how many Arenasmith trials you have remaining on the Arena screen in Hearthstone.
Is Arenasmith available for both The Arena and Underground Arena?
Yes! Arenasmith is available for all Arena drafts. As a free user, your number of trial drafts is shared across the two game modes.
How do I know if the Card Ratings are available for Arenasmith?
Arenasmith is usually available. If it isn't, there will be a message on the Arena screen in Hearthstone before you start a draft. If you decide to proceed anyway and are a free user, this will not use one of your free drafts.
How long after an expansion or Arena pool update do the Card Ratings update?
We're currently targeting ~24 hours to collect enough data to power new card ratings for that season, but this may speed up in future.
Is Arenasmith available for macOS?
Yes! Arenasmith is available for macOS through HSTracker.
