I found the original one pretty neat, let’s see how this goes...
To quote the legendary Riosix:
It's a treasure hunt using your Hearthstone card collection. I'll start it off with a riddle, and you try to figure out what card I'm talking about. First one to answer correctly picks a new card and makes the next riddle. Make it as difficult as you want, just not impossible :)
I’ll start with:
Alone I’m quite fearsome,
you better watch out,
but doubled I’m more than tripled,
and my gurgle - a mighty shout.

Comments
Nope, as said above, it was on point on the rarity as an Epic card.
Fel Orc Soulfiend
Nope.
Poisoned Blade maybe?
Anima Golem?
None of those.
The murloc from un goro who'd return them to hand? (Guessing it's not so not bothering to look up)
Meanstreet Marshal
Getting closer, but no.
Echoing Ooze
Nope.
Big hint I think
Shimmering Courser
Exactly!
Only card with "Elusive" that the owner could target until Reliquary Prime was printed.
At this time i don't have any riddle.
Upon a time my riddle is begin.
Ever you'll know how is little it,
How to solve it and who will win.
Guess the Weight?
Nope
Puzzle Box of Yogg-Saron?
Nope
Awesome riddle, breaking the fourth wall. However the English is a little misleading, especially the third line.
Is this what it is meant to be?
At this time i don't have any riddle.
In time my riddle will begin.
Soon you'll know how little it is,
How to solve it and who will win.
maybe it is Insight?
Nope. It's a legendary card.
Give me some time. I try to rephrase it.
It's not Insight, but the answer is in sight.
At now, unfortunately, I don't have a riddle.
Until that time when it will finally begin.
Even one look enough to see how is little it,
How to solve that riddle and who will win.
[Hearthstone Card (
Rin, the First Disciple
) Not Found]?
Nope. Wrong direction
Wrong direction from what?
From anyting, for sure. Text of the riddle is not connected with the card's effect.
Not a lot to work with here, R. The only hint was followed by a disclaimer that it wasn't a hint.
Ok. I don't know how to not spoil it... The answer is somewhere on the edge. Advanced hint - "At now, unfortunately, I don't have a riddl'."
Elise Starseeker?
Text is not related to the card's effect, stats or anything else, but its name.
Name. On the edge. Riddle is pronounced as "ridl".
The Darkness because that's what I'm in
You should know how to solve this riddle.
Such has already been done recently. But here each line contains 2 characters from the card's name.
Still nothing... After one reply or in a couple of hours, I will give you a final hint.
Elise the Trailblazer
It is 19 characters. While each line has only 2. Don't you get it? Last character is excess btw.
"At now, unfortunately, I don't have a riddle."
First two characters is "A" and "L"...
I still don't really get it, but Aluneth?
Yes, Aluneth. The meaning of the text is not important. It was simply edited so that the characters are on the edges of text.
Just let me carry your load
and I will turn it around
I may be ugly like a toad
But no better opener can be found
Imprisoned Homunculus
Nope.
Tunnel Trogg?
That's correct :)
The Kirin Tor Shines Strangely
As the Tortoise Beats the Hare
Not Once but Twice Assails Thee
The Forest's Anger Flares
Solar Eclipse?
Blessing of the Ancients.
Not once but twice => twinspell
It has tortoise and a hare in the art. And a quick search for 'Kirin Tor' showed me that the glowing rune on the tree is the sign of the Kirin Tor.
Apostlejoe what do you know? Well the answer for one thing. Your turn
Here comes the new one:
Bikes are fun
On the board
After the provocation
Rush to the face.
Spiked Hogrider
Exactly. Maybe this was to easy, but I had to take the opportunity to get "Boar" two times into the verses.
This break in the riddle game is brought to you by HSReplay - "Bring out your inner scumbag netdecking with HSReplay!"
Riddle while we wait for DestroyerR:
Keep on Truckin'
Down the Avenue
If you're Packing
I Hurt You!!
Rip this game. I am sad : (
Sea Reaver
Good to see you R. Nope, it's a piggyback one...
I thought so. Backfire?
Good guess but a much older card. Where is everyone?
Is this card's effect is card draw and some damage? Holy Wrath
Emphathis on the piggyback...
More way than one
Wut?
I'm here, I just don't have a good idea. Thanks for keeping this alive. You don't have to worry though, this thread has always come back so far, even after weeks of silence. Sometimes people just need a break.
Literally piggybacking might be something like Crabrider.
Can someone explain me what is piggyback mean?
It means in this case in one of the senses that I'm using someone else's example. Googling stuff like that should find it pretty easy and will help you learn English more than someone telling you. I know because I've studied Spanish a lot. When someone tells me I often forget but if I look up more likely I'll remember.
Ofc I googled it. Translator gives me several versions of translation. Back, on the back, on the shoulders, counter-shipping, combine, combined, additional. How did I understand this means to drag anything on back, isn't it? Leatherclad Hogleader
Hmm. You're right, I googled it too and the first explanations didn't say how it is used metaphorically. You are also right on the answer, your turn.
I'm the biggest of those.
I have deathcry, of course.
Also I have a battlerattle.
Because it's kinda chattel.
Carnivorous Cube?
Nope, but it's close.
Felsoul Jailer?
Nope. Add first and last lines to it. Still close btw.
Yes, those cards are close, but not quite. There is a ~6 such cards.
Kathrena Winterwisp?
[it's still DestroyerR's turn, isn't it?]
[Yup, but he is not reply yet. I think he doesn't mind.]
Nope. Listen hint: "I'm the biggest of THOSE."
Advanced hint: it doesn't have deathcry by itself.
Da Da Da Da Undatakah kah kah kah?
On the right track! You added last line. Now add first line with "listen" hint.
C'mon. Pronounce "those" slowly.
Seeping Oozeling?
N'Zoth, the Corruptor
Fedrion is right.
I think I'm going to visit other hearthstone sites and advertise this game to get some new blood around here....
There is no other hearthstone sites.
Sorry for the delay, I've had a rough week.
So anyways:
The usurper came and he was on fire
Everybody loved him and everybody left me
Under a new sun I may rise
But let's be real, I'm a legacy of the past.
Kind of an easy one.
Just pretend I skipped, couldn’t think of a good riddle
As for the current one, Ragnaros the Firelord?
Nope.
Anything I could hint is a total giveaway.
Let's see...
Bluegill Warrior and Redgill Razorjaw?
Nope.
At least I don't remember much talk about Bluegill and Redgill.
https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/hearthstone/t/come-play-game-card-treasure-hunt-at-ooc/62864
that'll be $1,275 DestroyerR. Standard advertising fee.
Arcane Intellect?
Rin, the First Disciple or Howlfiend because of Ticky?
None of those.
Arcane Intellect is closer.
Does this mean it is recently the most talked about card or that in Hearthstone's history it has been?
Sorcerer's Apprentice? The usurper being Incanter's Flow (still my favorite riddle to date).
Eyyy thanks :)
Oof
Sadly nope.
It's not recently talked about, but in general, it's a card that always is talked about if a new expansion is coming.
Magma Rager?
Almost!
Flamewreathed Faceless?
War Golem?
Spider Tank?
Flame Juggler? Because flamewaker?
Astonishingly none of those.
Warsong Commander
Frostwolf Grunt?
No and no.
Muster for Battle?
Chillwind Yeti?
No to both.
If that hint doesn't give it away...
Sen'jin Shieldmasta?
It's gotta be Silverback Patriarch, no?
JFK is correct!
I even said Silver, Back and Daddy in the hints.
Alright, should be easy.
Technically, never Huffer.
Animal Companion?
[card]demon companion?
...or is it Call of the Wild because it always is?
Ohhh, got it: Polymorph: Boar!
Neither of those, but Polymorph: Boar fits even better than the answer, damn! You're close though.
Arcane Golem
Demon Companion?
NerdyMcNerd is right!
Ok, here goes:
It is imperative that the fellows are one-sided.
I actually guessed demon companion but since I scratched it out I'll take it as a loss. Sad face
Mad Summoner?
The Marsh Queen?
Both are incorrect, Live4vrRdieTryn, you're close.
Maybe Yogg-Saron, Master of Fate when he spins his dumbass wheel and gives my opponent a bunch of big boys and me just 2 drops?
Nope, your first guess was much closer.
Leeroy Jenkins?
Astral Rift?
Neeru Fireblade?
Cornered Sentry?
None of these. Hint:
Horde Operative
Doubling ImpDoubling Imp
....Vilefiend Trainer?
None of these are correct. Hint number 2:
A one sided shape is a line....
Fiendish Circle!
Correct!
Imperative, Fellows, One-sided - circle.
Nice one! Took a lot of looking before it dawned on me. Let's try this:
Boy, I Over-did it This Time...
Last Night Sure Was One, How it Went.
Until the Next I Was Just Fine,
Reckless Without Consequence.
Wow, that's a really cool riddle. I can see easily three different directions this could go. Let's start with one of the obvious possibilities: Reckless Experimenter?
Not even close
Blur
R sees the greater picture for the W. No more vertical ones for me for a while xD
Has corrupt before them all. Double check that.
Stats bigger then cost overall. Also check that.
He is not so much corrupted as has terrible aim.
Tell me what is his name in this simplest game?
Unless I'm missing something it seems the only information is the bad aim (virtually all cards give more stats than cost/ dubious corrupt statement)
[Hearthstone Card (Ragnaros, the firelord) Not Found]?
Mayor Noggenfogger?
Corrupt Goblin with overall stats better than the cost since it has an effect, the aim part is more than obvious. And the name is like a game, try to spell it fast lol. (In all seriousness I got no freaking clue so I go with random that *kinda* fits.)
Both is not even close. Aim is the last part that should interest you. Look at the first two lines.
P.S. stats of the card is really bigger then it's cost.
Corrupted Healbot?
Exactly
"Never gonna give you that card"
I keep hearing it in my head.
Yet the reality is stronger than the patch notes.
And the infinite loop begins.
Instructor Fireheart?
Deck of Lunacy?
No and no.
@R is closer.
Shudderwock
Nope.
Dragonqueen Alexstrasza?
On point! But no.
Bad Luck Albatross!
I misunderstood the word "hinders".
That's the furthest you've been.
Shadowjeweler Hanar?
Lorewalker Cho?
Nope nope.
Have no idea. Starving Buzzard?
Dead Man's Hand...?
Dead Man's Hand is a really close call! But still there's a mechanic missing.
Frost Nova?
Oh, Shadow Visions?
@Live4vrRdieTryn, yes!
The only card that can still discover itself! (The only card that's still used at least)
Ughh.. Sorry guys, I don't have a riddle just yet.
After my last one I decided to think up something greater...
But it didn't measure up to that one so that's why I don't have it.
How long do you think it'll take for me to come up with one???
Time Out!
Awesome guess but no, not a Pally card
Have no idea. Does this card have an immune keyword? Measure... Maybe this is Mal'Ganis due to the cost. Or some card which has more letters than Blur.
Not a letter one but there's some cleverness involved in the last line. Not immune in any way. I edited it a bit.
Guess the Weight! Lines 2 and 3 describe its effect and line 4 has the same meaning as 'Guess the wait'.
You Nailed it, Mr. McNerd : D
This riddle was an adaptation of one of R's. You can find it on page 111.
I was trying to make a riddle when I thought, "Hey - why not just give them a picture of the card." So that's what I did.
Deck of Lunacy/Deck of Chaos?
Mask of C'Thun
R is correct!
Haha, cute. Didn't notice
The long-awaited darkmoon fair began.
The orange man is beaten by blue man.
Maybe rarely, but you can see that blue.
But zero chance to see that orange poo.
Firework Elemental?
Don't you get the "blue" and "orange" thing?
Don't you get the "blue" and "orange" thing?
I'm literally thinking of the artwork.
I guess I'm wrong but anyways...
Lunar Eclipse?
Is the orange poo Zephrys?
I'm guessing orange is legendary and blue is rare
Nope and nope. Yup to leg and rare.
Hint - It's an old legendary card.
So we are trying to guess Mr. Orange not Mr. Blue right?
I think you will need to give more information. Card rarity and that something beats something is pretty vague...
I was thinking Jeeves bc Voracious Reader but the rarity is off
Runaway Blackwing
Nope and nope. But dylbertarenas is close.
Rare from the Darkmoon > Old legendary.
Write the name of the orange man or both.
Don Han'Cho and Feat of Strength?
Nope. Both minions. Also the same stats.
This legendary card is totally sucks.
Fizzy Elemental and Icehowl?
Yup
It's inevitable that R and I are going to be the new Anchor and DestroyerR at this rate.
Getting Their XP Through the Roof
By Killing All That Move All Over the Map.
Cairne Turned to his Comrade and Exclaimed, "Yoo!"
"________", Replied Hogger, Happy and Fat.
meh. Writers block
Any hint, comrade?
Thinking about what it's known as that they are doing might make a connection with what they are saying
farming...?
They ARE farming!
so Hog Rancher?
Nope, it's what Hogger would say given all the information. Play around with it, it's pretty basic just maybe unexpected.
Survival of the Fittest?
Level Up!
Stonetusk Boar?
I mean, everybody farmed boars in WoW lol
I'm afraid not. What Hogger says is similar to what Cairne says, and is the answer. Feel free to ask yes or no questions.
It works out to be like a math equation where if A = XY then B =XZ or whatever
