    I'm almost done with the HS riddles, but these ones are giving me trouble. Can anyone give me a hint?

      The first two relate to the same category - first one you could achieve when you play against someone who "plagues" you and the other is a kind of "thophy" to show off when you achieve something "heroic" :)

        Thank you!

        I figured they were connected to Hakkar and Witchwood, respectively, but I didn't even know cardbacks had pages! Got them now. :) 

        I am still stumped by the last one though… I know it is something to do with Scholomance and isn't a card, but I swear I have looked at every kind of Scholomance guide on this site at this point…

          This one was hard for me at first too, but I found out the best thing for learning is to understand the lore ;)

          Not quite all of them.

          One in particular involves learning about the faculty of the school and all who run it.

      At this point, you've figured out all the card-related ones. For these last 3, you'll have to look elsewhere.

    I seem to be the only one struggling with these 2; can anyone help?

     

    "Beware of witches handing out free apples."

    Show Spoiler
    I've tried Witchwood Apple (the obvious choice), Rotten Applebaum, all the Hagatha's, Witch's Cauldron, Witch's Brew, and still no luck. I'm lost at this point.

     

    "Ever since Ashes of Outlands came along, he's now one away from a full set"

    Show Spoiler
    I thought it would be related to Illidan or Xavius, but neither of those turned out to be the answer from what I can tell. I frankly don't know where to go from here.

      I thought I looked through all the Witches, but I guess I hadn't. Thanks for the reinforcement; I got it!

      Show Spoiler
      Priest rework, Primes, Dormant, Demon Hunter… I don't really know what I'm missing from the set, but apparently I have that in common with this guy…

        Hint 1: Demon Hunter is part of the answer.

        Hint 2: It's not in Ashes of Outlands. It's from a set earlier than that.

        The answer is not a HS card, it's to do with a game mode that changes every week. And the specific rule set of this mode was recently in the game a couple weeks back

    Does anyone have any clues for

    Hearthstone: "This little gnome is a pain in the neck."

    Mythgard: "We only rate dogs. This is clearly someone in the army."

    Thanks

      For the Hearthstone one, think about creatures that might bite your neck.

    Okay, my last one:

    To have a free Polymerization at hand at all times produces some truly grizzly results.

    I´ve tried Evocation, Devolving missiles.. Maybe I´m totally off?

    Any hints, please? :D

      It's not a mage card. You are doing what I did and thinking Polymorph. That's not what it says. Polymerisation is a Yu-Gi-Oh card that combines two monsters. Can you think of a Hearthstone equivalent that might be appropriate for Halloween?

      It being a card is correct. You only need to stitch the clues together now. You've probably trained it if you played Brawls a month ago.
