[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)

sa?

I’ll try to jumpstart the forum again.

Igneous Elemental Is my guess if my weird deductions sre correct...

Seems it could be any elemental. Let’s go with Earth Elemental 

Could it be The Storm Bringer?

Lava Shock?

I guess this because the beast’s flavor text says something about BRM and that’s the only shaman card that isn’t an elemental from it 

Once again I scour my collection both owned and unowned and flavor texts trying to solve one of these riddles to no avail.

Really doubt I’m going to agree with the answer when I see it. Again.

Earthquake?? 

Or possibly The Lurker Below 

(pardon the salt, my life stinks) 

Guessing it’ll be from that awful overrated movie, Split. RBI someone else. I worked 8 pm to 7 am and have to go to sleep. Least I get to play HS on my job >: D

theres that salt again 

Fire Elemental? I think the specific number is 6 cause the number of the Beast is 666. Fire Elemental costs 6 and has 6 Attack, also its name fits perfectly with the first line's hint.

Found this thread just now and I am absolutely loving it! Awesome job, guys!!

I'm not that good at riddles, but I'll try to help...

Damn, so it was my first guess, but I got spooked hahaha

Alright, I don't know if there are rules and this is my first attempt at a riddle, but here we go...

Stealthy, is my master;

cunning, tricky, and fast to deceive.

A norseman Fire price paid,

and, undercover, ten more you shall receive.

Hope it's not too easy, or too hard :P

Is it Academic Espionage?

Stealthy, is my master;

cunning, tricky, and fast to deceive. (Rogue Card)

A norseman Fire price paid, (Not sure on this)

and, undercover, ten more you shall receive. (Shuffles 10 cards in)

Sorry for the late response, but yeah! It is!

About the norseman fire - Fire means four in Norwegian, so you have to pay 4 to get 10 cards

I wouldn't call within the hour a late response!

This may be a bit easy, but I'm rusty at these.

Witness me, and soon you'll see,

A land of ice and stone,

After all, a noble falls,

You'll soon hear the moving bones.

Could it be... The Lich King?

Northrend, Arthas has fallen, and soon the Scourge will rise.

Good guess, but incorrect.

Good reasoning, but incorrect.

Yeah, like I anticipated Corrupt the Waters was really unfitting for the three lines given. You could’ve came up with way better. The beast line was a total red herring that made 0 sense.

sometimes I think you guys are more into the stringing along than making a fine riddle. That’s my 2 cents. Very stupid riddle. 

Hmmm, I usually have a couple guesses but have to choose one.

So, is it Sindragosa?

Again Northrend, a noble dragon dies, but she comes back to life as a skeleton dragon.

Of course you have your own opinion, and that's ok. But in mine, it was a well crafted riddle... After all, a nice riddle shouldn't always point directly at the answer.

He made us all think in a direction, while the answer laid hidden in another. It was good.

No to Barov and Sindragosa.

You're right about the card having a noble title in the name, but that opens up to a lot more than Lord or Lady. The Northrend trail of thought is spot on as well.

Hint: There's a clue in every line of the riddle.

Ok, so a land of ice and stone - obviously Northrend. The Knights of the Frozen Throne expac is the first thing that comes to mind. But not necessarily.

After all, a noble falls - Many things are considered noble, not just royalty.

You'll soon hear the marching bones - it's a clear reference to the Scourge and the undead.

So, all things considered, I'll guess Headmaster Kel'Thuzad

The part about witness me, and soon you'll see is getting me tho.

If it's not quite right, I hope I can help someone! 

Witness me, and soon you'll see,     - That line says that The Card has an effect when played, It has Battlecry/Outcast probably. or;

A land of ice and stone,                     - We can bind this line with first line and card image's background covers ice and stone or card's animation is about it like how Illidan shows his wings etc. It might not be tho, It might refer completely Northrend but that doesn't change my guess tbh because my guess will do their job for the name of The Lich King. So it might refer to it like "You'll see Northrend when you witness my job."

After all, a noble falls,                         - It has probably deathrattle too or has an effect with destroying minions or sth like that.

You'll soon hear the moving bones. - Moving bones might hint that animating bones with a spell which will be summoning a minion here or destroying a minion or minions.

Firstly, I've thought about "Battlecry and Deathrattle" minions and Teron Gorefiend came to my mind. There was nothing noble with him and also there was no title in card's name so I gave it up.

Than i said that "What if that doesn't have "Battlecry and Deathrattle" but an effect just like combination of them !?".

So the card we are searching here will have a nobel title, Battlecry and Deathrattle or I will take this "Battlecry and Deathrattle" thing one level above and would call it as an effect that does the same with it like Disciplinarian Gandling.

Being a grandmaster of a school came to me noble and the card has a title aswell. "Disciplinarian" title might not be noble enough but when you think it is the title of a grandmaster and emphasizing to be a grandmaster, it feels it is noble enough.

So my guess is Disciplinarian Gandling.

Your thinking is good, but you're off the mark with the battlecry/outcast guess.

I'll say this, it's a card that never saw play anywhere. Not constructed, not arena, it's a pretty bad card.

Going only by the title, the kotft expac, and all them bones... Bone Baron?

Maybe witness me and soon you'll see, a land of ice and stone means Freeze synergy?

You got it!

Witness me, and soon you'll see, (Bone Baron's attack sound is "Witness Me!")

A land of ice and stone, (Northrend, from the KotFT expansion)

After all, a noble falls, (Baron is a noble title)

You'll soon hear the moving bones. (Skeletons are added to the hand)

Aha! I had a feeling the first verse was related to a voice line, but I couldn't find any sort of archive for those. Nice one!

My next riddle might take a while, I'm quite busy right now. I wouldn't mind if someone else posted theirs, btw.

Hello there.

My English is bad,
But I'm good at poetry.
Please don't be mad
And check it out my entry:

I'm surprised that I'm undead.
My attack can blow two heads.
But I'm a simple man, not killer.
You guessed it right I'm ...

Hey, nice poem!

I'm probably way off, but Windspeaker? For the windfury, for him giving the windfury (not himself), and also I think the answer is something that rhymes with "killer".

Thanks. By the way, while I was waiting for someone's answer, I wrote a few more.

Windspeaker not even close to answer. (Look at the first line of the riddle).
Yes, the answer rhymes with "killer".

Wretched Tiller! Nice riddle!

I'm surprised that I'm undead - “Holy gawd moly, I’m undead!” (Or something like that)

My attack can blow two heads - Can hit a minion and the enemy hero

But I'm a simple man, not killer - Is just a farmer and rhymes it has “killer”

welcome to the leaderboard torto123! 

That's right.

No one? Catch.

I'm waiting for the situation.
I will fulfill my destination.
I will not allow this come true.
Now no one can hit you (till end of a turn).

On the same note, we got Deathspeaker

Nope. Special attention to the first and last line.

I used Google translator. So maybe first I, and then you don't quite understand the meaning of some words. Here, the word "destination" doesn't mean target, it means purpose. Now I'm going to try to use another translator.

No. The first line has a big hint - "waiting for the situation".

Is it... Evasion?

"... waiting for the situation" might indicate that it's a Secret requiring a trigger.

It's very very close (:

Ice Block? 

Right.

I think the point should still be given to Dermostatic.

I see the meaning in your words, it should be so.

Quote From anchorm4n

No, I don't think so. I'm almost 100% sure evasion was deliberately chosen instead of ice block...

It was indeed. waiting made me think of Rogues sneakily lying in wait. Nice on Live4vrRdieTryn! :)

Oops sorry I even assumed it might be wrong. Give me a few minutes to whip one up...

Reptilian Animosity

And Equal Opportunity .

Seeks out He and She,

If not for Your Scrutiny. 

Wait WTF why did you guys skip me 

Chameleos?

Quote From DestroyerR

Wait WTF why did you guys skip me 

Balls. Sorry DestroyerR :/

Not sure how to proceed, but I'm more than happy to hand over my next turn to you if I correctly guess.

Nah it’s fine, I’ll pretend I passed my turn. For future reference though @R, the one who guesses the previous riddle is the one who formulates the new one unless they willingly give it to someone else or stay inactive for like, a week or something 

I thought it was concluded that it was my W. All good if not.

Nope not Chamelios 

I guessed Ice Block and they said it was right. Did he guess it before me? I honestly didn’t see if so... sorry mang

Not a priest card.. or a neutral 

Warning in advance that I got back from my night shift and have to sleep. I’ll try to check the guesses as soon as I wake up thoug

Nope! This time around you guys are thinking too big ; D 

Is it Veranus?

Reptilian Animosity (Dragon)

And Equal Opportunity . (Casts an Equality style effect)

Seeks out He and She, 

If not for Your Scrutiny.

Not sure on the last couple of lines though

It is not Veranus and the card has absolutely nothing to do with dragons.

* like that kobolds card that is one, i may sleep very soon o.O i cant sleep cuz of a lot of house drama...tldr and all that

I’m guessing you guys are a little perplexed which surprises me since some of you have solved much greater puzzles. I will reveal that the reason you can’t think of it is because the card is completely unworthy of thinking about at all. Hence, the Scrutiny line

Of course it seems easy when you already know the answer.

Giant Anaconda?

No sir, not a Druid card. 

Then maybe Cobra Shot?

Boom. Design Finalist takes it. Go Clippers!!! : D

Quote From DestroyerR

Wait WTF why did you guys skip me 

Sorry about that. Now it's your turn.

@R thanks!

Lines in the text, 3.

Syllables in the name, 7.

Seabirds in the tube, 25.  

[Hearthstone Card (Zerek’s Cloning Gallery) Not Found]?

Not sure the number you can get with shenanigans but it could be 25.

Nope

Is it... Camouflaged Dirigible?

So many options. Maybe it's a Puzzle Box of Yogg-Saron?

English syllables are weird, but let's say Bad Luck Albatross

None of those. Hint: the last line refers to the flavor text

I hope this is the Witch's Cauldron.

Nope

I CANNOT, for the love of me, think of anything else other than Albatross  lol

Unfortunately I have to ask for one more hint.

Hint: The last line isn’t to be taken literally, but rather pieced together by synonyms to the words that sound like the actual flavor text (Incanter's Flow style)

Ultimate Infestation. Ghouls in the pipe, five by five.

Oh, how I didn't see that. Facepalm.

Who is she? Where did she come from?
Why is she wearing this uniform?
How does she even catch gangsters?
I don't need sleep. I need answers.

999% sure that Ultimate Infestation is the correct answer.

Yes, Sally. That's was easy one.

Quote From R

999% sure that Ultimate Infestation is the correct answer.

Yes, Sally. That's was easy one.

You are correct, but @anchorm4n is still right. There has been more than on each instance where a wrong guess fit the riddle just as much a small the correct answer (and sometimes even more lol) 

@anchorm4n yourturn then!

I was sure I'm right. So he pledged you an easy riddle that you guess before I lie to bed. Because there is 23pm. (:

He just wakes up fire, doesn't walk on it.
When used some spells, the enemy is lit.
But I'm thoughts about someone another.
Tell me the name of his older brother.

Is it... Majordomo Executus?

Firebrand

Yes, Firebrand.

Just bumping the thread in case @torto123 hasn't seen it :)

Quote From torto123

Man, really? Three days.

@R We’ve had longer breaks than that. Usually we start giving one-day “ultimatums” after a week

3 days seems like enough time to me. Can’t we make that the cut off? 

Quote From Live4vrRdieTryn

3 days seems like enough time to me. Can’t we make that the cut off? 

@Live4vrRdieTryn This is isn't a thread that constantly requires attention, but something that people should be able to do when they feel like it. The only reason I bumped is because there seems to have been some momentum lately and I genuinely thought torto123 hadn't seen it was their turn.

I agree with DestroyerR that a week is ample time to give someone, and can second that there have been far longer down-times than this. Maybe they need the time to think of something, or perhaps they have other things going on but would still like the opportunity to set the next riddle. I understand that for others it means waiting, but there are a lot of non-Hearthstone puzzles to fill one's time with whilst this thread is quiet :) 

Apologies for the delay, I got caught up on work and college and didn't see I'd guessed right. I'll be faster next time!

Here we go:

A whisper in the wind,

brings the clamor of warfare;

The sicknening noise of the nearly dead;

And, grumbling ground, a beastly glare.

Spirit Echo

Nope, try again!

Kathrena Winterwisp

That's correct! One of my favorite-cards-that-I-don't-actually-own.

Your turn, sir!

little riddle

Is it... Mindrender Illucia?

No, it's not

Is it Flik Skyshiv?

Yup

Hey! Nice one!

Round, and round it goes at first,

     before the storm comes to exist.

But soon as it meets this force,

          round, and round, and round, and round it goes.

Whirlwind Tempest

That’s gonna be a yup for sure

Yes, it looks like the correct answer, but I'm not completely sure.

Yep, that's the guy

One thing that you should know -
I cannot be collected at all.
But i'm sure you know my name.
I appear in almost every game.

The Coin?

No. Doesn't fit last line.

Uhhh from a personal perspective of the meta... [Hearthstone Card (Soul Shard) Not Found]?

Silver Hand Recruit?

Your answer is incomplete, but yes. These are the tokens from hero powers of the shaman, rogue and paladin.

So just to clarify, it’s @Live4vrRdieTryin’s turn right?

I’m not sure I guessed it, but will gladly take it if I did. Also, I thought non-collectibles were excluded..?

Quote From Live4vrRdieTryn

Also, I thought non-collectibles were excluded..?

From what I've seen they're not necessarily excluded, just uncommon since they're much more obscure, especially the ones from boss runs.

If my answer is needed... Yes, now is Live4vrRdieTryin turn.

About non-collectible cards. I think it is allowed, but only what most players know. For example, Huffer or Ashbringer.

Sorry for the delay. 

I’m that guy that refuses to work.

Ugly and unsavory looking at you like it’s YOUR fault.

Build a deck around me, go ahead and waste your time.

I just really, really hate this guy.

Humongous Razorleaf

Is it... C'Thun?

Nope and nope 

Silithid Swarmer

I’d say it’s even worse than that gu

Eerie Statue

Nope. It’s a pretty old card that has never had success though many have tried.

Xaril, Poisoned Mind?

Xaril has success so no.

Is it Gazlowe?

It is not. The card has a really enticing effect that at least for me lured me into trying very hard into making it work even though it was years down the road from everyone else knowing it stunk. 

This description can fit almost any card. (:

I don't have time right now, but a little later I'll try to guess again.

It’s a really homely neutral card? That has to seal the deal

I dunno. The Darkness?

Xavius? The new Illidan xd

Oldest set, cool effect but doesn't work.

Where are the olds of this topic? (:

Cannot believe you guys haven’t guessed it yet. I know the clues are vague but it’s a really old card that was notorious for being unplayable even though its  effect is really tantalizing. Also the portrait of this dude is really repugnant; more than Xaril, The Darkness, or Xavius. 

Browse your collections go one by one, you’ll find it ; D

Bonus hint: not a Leg 

Servant of Yogg-Saron

Omg, R no. You are not gonna believe you missed this one if someone else gets it...

what other hint can I give? This card sucks, it’s a neutral, it’s an old card (pre-whispers), the card art is completely ogrish, and it’s one of those cards you WISH could work because it would be awesome if it did.

Focus on how ugly this asshole is maybe 

Hobgoblin? 

Troggzor the Earthinator?

Quote From DestroyerR

Hobgoblin? 

Ow, that was my first guess but I changed it last minute...

It's probably right hahaha

DestroyrR takes the W.

Once more, I hate that card’s dirty guts. 

Fallen Hero + 1 turn = Shade of Naxxramas

Headmaster Kel'Thuzad + 2 turns = Forest Warden Omu

Judicious Junior + 3 turns = ?

Is it... Judicious Junior? :P

Onyx Magescribe

@R takes it! I wonder how could I have made it less obvious lol

I'm pretty dangerous. Ok, not very.
But I have something in my belly.
This thing is even smaller than me,
But it can bring you to your knee.

Mecharoo? 

No

Blightnozzle Crawler?

Right

Oops, missed that. Not my best, but I didn't think I'd get that.

I'm at my best when the party,

is full to breaking point,

My big plans will get started,

once a septet is in the joint.

Reliquary Seeker? 

Quote From Live4vrRdieTryn

Reliquary Seeker? 

Yup. Did think that may have been too easy. Your turn

I’m of the class this writer in his hobby would take.

I like to stomp around like an ogre who blows.

Pet Cemetary’s my favorite movie, even the remake!

This one is right on the tip of the (missing) nose..:.

I thought this one was going to be easy. All the hints are spelled out. Could be just me....

it’s an awful card as always. I always pick awful cards. It’s a class card too.

Abominable Bowman

Boom. Take it away, R...

[Hearthstone Card (Al’Akir the Windlord) Not Found]?

No. Doesn't fit the second line.

Annoy-o-Module, then?

Here you go

Stand strong men, for I am here!

I will turn the tide and win the fight!

They cower before my mere presence

and none dare to accept my challenge!

But if things go south... can I get outta here?

Dunno. Sunkeeper Tarim?

Nope. I’ll try and give a few hints if it was way too vague, riddles are not really my forte.

Anima Golem perhaps? 

Southsea Captain?

Sorry, both are wrong.

This card is first of all pretty much forgotten/outclassed right now. The last 3 lines are related to voicelines.

Is it... Eadric the Pure?

Yes. You have completed THE ULTIMATE TEST (not really).

Thanks @PopeNeia, nice riddle :)

As for mine:

Letter, Jaffa, fever, Urban

Heed these words to pull back the curtain

I have no idea at all. I assume it is an anagram for a card?

Lord Jaraxxus? 

Animal Companion?

None of the above I'm afraid; there is no anagram here either.

The words all relate, in some way, to the card's name.

Leatherclad Hogleader?

Quote From R

Leatherclad Hogleader?

Nope, but the card does have two words in its name

I think we’re gonna require less vague hints

Undercity Huckster?

Not Undercity Huckster.

Letter and fever refer to the first word in the name, Jaffa and Urban the second.

Flame Juggler?

Same

Jaffa in* the urban dictionary means an impotent male. It also has something to do with oranges
