[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)

Submitted 5 years, 1 month ago by

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.

    "Alone I'm quite fearsome" - a highlander card

    "but doubled I'm more than tripled" - the card summons another minion. If you get to duplicate it (in hand), you end up with 4 minions, which is more than 3x the original one

    "a mighty shout" - a battlecry minion

    I say Dinotamer Brann.

    Really nice poem, well done!

    I notice I am confused. Something I believe isn't true. How do I know what I think I know?

    Alone I’m quite fearsome, // i guess i want to kill it

    you better watch out, // no new information

    but doubled I’m more than tripled, // buffing other friendly minions

    and my gurgle - a mighty shout. // mrglglglgl

    Is it pre-nerf Murloc Warleader?

    I do what I must, when I must. Know this well.

    Since it’s proving hard, I’ll give a tiny hint: the gurgle becomes a mighty shout when doubled as well

    Is it Blood of The Ancient One?

    Alone I’m quite fearsome, (a 9/9 is pretty big)

    you better watch out, (You want to keep on eye on this minion so it doesn't turn into a 30/30)

    but doubled I’m more than tripled, (When you triple a 9/9 the total stats are 27/27, and when you double the Blood of The Ancient One you get a 30/30)

    and my gurgle - a mighty shout. (I would say the battlecry is pretty mighty)

    You got it! The last line was a reference to how the Blood’s entrance quote is an unintelligible gurgle, but when doubled it becomes the Ancient One, whose entrance quote is a shout and a half (THE DOOM OF WORLDS AWAKENS ONCE MORE!)

    You’re up, @KANSAS!

    I am just going to copy the lyrics from this song with a couple of the words changed.

    Early in the morning sunlight

    Soaring on the wings of dawn

    Here I'll live and die with my wings in the sky

    And I won't come down no more

    Higher than the dinosaurs I'm flying

    Crimson skies of ice and fire

    Borne on wings of steel, I have so much to feel

    And I won't come down no more

    So high, so high

    Without my wings

    You know, I'd surely die

    I found my freedom flying high

    I've climbed the mountains of the sky

    Floating on the clouds of amber

    Searching for the rainbow's end

    The jungle so far below me, I'm here alone

    And I won't come down no more

    Not all of the lines are important, so I wouldn't focus too much one each individual line, but there are a couple of key words in there.

    Carrion, my wayward grub.

    No, but not a bad guess.

    If I need to I can add a hint, maybe just putting song lyrics wasn't as cool an idea as I thought it would be.

    Lots of hints pointing to Ungoro there... and obviously something flying. First thought about Fire Plume Phoenix, but I go for Pyros because of "Here I'll live and die..." - no other deathrattle cards with flying creatures from Ungoro coming to mind.

    Is it Pyros?

    Thanks! This is my first try, let me know if it ends up too difficult. I liked the idea of using lyrics, so I'll pick that up with Linkin Parks "In the end".

    It starts with
    One thing the buffs are why
    It doesn't even matter how hard you try
    Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
    To explain in due time

    All I know
    Draw is a valuable thing
    Watch cards fly by as the pendulum swings
    Shuffle them back till it's time to play
    The clock ticks life away

    It's so unreal
    You didn't look out below
    Watch the stats go right out the window
    Trying to hold on, but didn't even know
    Or wasted it all just to watch me go

    I kept everything in hand
    And even though you tried, it all fell apart
    What it meant to me will eventually be
    A memory of a time when

    You tried so hard and got so far
    But in the end my minions got ever better
    You had to fall to lose it all
    But in the end my minions got ever better

    One thing, the buffs are why
    It doesn't even matter how hard you try
    Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
    To remind myself how

    You tried so hard
    In spite of the way you were mocking me
    Acting like I was part of your property
    Remembering all the times you fought with me
    I'm surprised

    It got so far
    Stats aren't the way they were before
    You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
    Not that you knew me back then
    But it all comes back to me in the end

    I kept all the cards in hand
    And even though you tried, it all fell apart
    What it meant to me will eventually be
    A memory of a time when

    You tried so hard and got so far
    But in the end my minions got ever better
    You had to fall to lose it all
    But in the end my minions got ever better

    I notice I am confused. Something I believe isn't true. How do I know what I think I know?

    Pogo-Hopper?

    There is a lot of referencing to shuffling and getting bigger stats, so Jade Idol does make sense. But if it isn't that then Pogo-Hopper seems like the next card to pick.

    You've got it right! The "buff" was a reference to the cost reduction from 2 to 1 mana. Looking forward to your next riddle

    Keeping with the current trend, I will do another song (Tubthumping), I did take out some of the lyrics. I don't think this one will be too hard.

    I get knocked down, but I get up again
    You are never gonna keep me down
    I get knocked down, but I get up again
    You are never gonna keep me down
    I get knocked down, but I get up again
    You are never gonna keep me down
    I get knocked down, but I get up again
     
    You are never gonna keep me down
    I get knocked down, but I get up again
    You are never gonna keep me down
    I get knocked down, but I get up again
    You are never gonna keep me down
    I get knocked down, but I get up again
    You are never gonna keep me down
    I get knocked down, but I get up again

    I was meant to be eternal,

    a knight with will undying,

    a force with strength infernal,

    after a thousand blows surviving

     

    Alas, I am weak and frail,

    my legacy is to fall and fail,

    but mark my words, I will prevail,

    this is my vow, this is my tale

    Ragnaros the Firelord?

    he was meant to be eternal in that he was meant to be in standard forever, and he has 'infernal' power.

    Though I am not sure about the "after a thousand blows surviving" part, or "alas, I am weak and frail, my legacy is to fall and fail".

    So, it was meant to be powerful and live forever, with infernal implying demonic power. However, it turned out to be weak and not good enough, but may be better at some point in the future. 

    Maybe Lord Jaraxxus?

    No, but you have the right idea. Hint: Infernal doesn’t really say anything, focus on other hints

    Ok, so the undying could refer to within a game, rather than within standard, and something that could survive a thousand blows...

    Is it Anub'arak?

    OK, this is really fun, thanks for creating this game. I know something demonic was implied, but I will go with my own guesses, vastly different from each other.

    First one is Annoy-o-Tron.

    I was meant to be eternal,

    a knight with will undying, [Paladin hero] [taunt]

    a force with strength infernal, 

    after a thousand blows surviving [divine shield]

     

    Alas, I am weak and frail, [small stats]

    my legacy is to fall and fail,

    but mark my words, I will prevail, 

    this is my vow, this is my tale [comeback in a form of Giggling Inventor?]

     

    My second guess is Edwin VanCleef.

     

    I was meant to be eternal,

    a knight with will undying, [maybe he was trained as a knight?]

    a force with strength infernal,

    after a thousand blows surviving [a lot of stats]

     

    Alas, I am weak and frail, [base body is weak]

    my legacy is to fall and fail,

    but mark my words, I will prevail, [summoning quote]

    this is my vow, this is my tale

    Short and probably too easy:

    I come to replace that which removes without killing.

    Beware! For I bring death!

    Straight forward leads my path

    You better watch out

    Beware my wrath

    And my infernal shout

    Star Aligner?

    Straight forward leads my path (this makes me think of druids, Star aligner was only ever played in druid decks)

    You better watch out (this combo deck was very big, so there were a lot of tech cards, so both players had to 'watch out' for the other players Dirty Rat

    Beware my wrath (Star aligner ruled the meta, and he ruled with an iron fist. also, 'wrath' sounds like another druid reference to me.)

    And my infernal shout (his battlecry was the reason he was so good)

    Straight forwards leads my path could suggest a charge or rush minion, something to watch out for could be high burst potential or an otk, and an infernal shout could indicate a demon with a battlecry, or a negative battlecry, or both.

    Is is Doomguard?

    Alright. I'll give you one anyway: infernal shout is relevant, but it's no battlecry.

    I'm going to bed now and will check your guesses in about 7 hours from now. Good night and good luck ;-)

    No. I'll give you a summary ;-)

     

    Straight forward leads my path - shaveyou suggested rush/charge, this is correct.

    You better watch out - shaveyou suggested burst/otk, this is correct.

    Beware my wrath - this is relevant, no correct guesses so far.

    And my infernal shout - this is relevant but misleading. no battlecry, no demon.

    Do you wanna do something fun?

    I don’t weigh a lot, far less than a ton.

    If you can’t read my body language, just listen,

    I will talk and talk, see how my ‘teeth’ glisten.

     

    Cast the spell, that within me dwells, 

    You will get your due, but you will have to play me, too,

    I could be called a spell on a stick, 

    See my lips, how they stutter and twitch

    Those are wrong as well. A hint: the last line doesn’t refer to any specific mechanic ingame, but rather to the minion’s flavor. The second to last line refers to Taunt

    When he's summoned, sound the trumpets

    It's totally common to hear

    Pay more mana and bigger he gets

    But he'll always be lowest tier

     

    This one's hopefully a bit harder.

    Nightmare Amalgam?

    When he's summoned, sound the trumpets (I don't know what this means actually)

    It's totally common to hear (In Battlegrounds, just about everyone is playing him)

    Pay more mana and bigger he gets (You generally want to spend lots of coins on battlecry minions to make the amalgam big)

    But he'll always be lowest tier (In spite of being one of the most prominent minions in the format, he is only tier 2. Not quite the lowest, but pretty low)

    Annoy-o-Tron is the first card which comes to mind. 

    There's that horn in his hand (trumpets), it's a common, there are bigger versions of it for more mana (like Psych-o-Tron), all of them are low(est) tier. And you could argue it's a "he".

    I notice I am confused. Something I believe isn't true. How do I know what I think I know?

    I'll say this: it's an old, obscure card.

    Now you got me curious enough to dig in deeper. Forbidden Ancient fits the growing with more mana part, but I don't know about the trumpets and it's no common either...

    The trumpets could be the key. Has anyone an idea about that? Maybe entrance sound or something?

    Lowly Squire?

    When he’s summoned, sound the trumpets - has trumpets in entrance quote 

    It’s totally common to hear - is common

    Pay more Mana and bigger he gets - gets more Attack when you spend Mana on HP

    But he’ll always be lowest tier - how do I say this... he sucks

    You got it! I'll also say that "lowest tier" was a double-meaning, since it's both the card's playability and a lowly squire is the lowest tier one can have in nobility.

    It was nerfed twice (once reducing what it gave charge to, then to it's god awful current effect. It's drunkards were Grim Patrons, and now it has no synergy with anything, because Raid Leader is just better, even with a charge centric deck.

    Knight of the Wild?

    From the forests of the wild, (he is called knight of the wild)

    I care not for the trees, (Knights don't protect trees)

    But I feel like a child, 

    Around the beetles and bees. (if you play enough beasts he costs 0. I guess "like a child" could imply a small mana cost?)

    Or is it The Voraxx?

    it is a plant so it comes from the wild. And it cares about the weeds, not the trees. Thought I am not sure about the "I feel like a child" part.

    It wouldn't be Light's Champion would it? it almost feels too obvious, like I'm walking into a trap, but here goes:

    I stood where no man goes, - [Not sure about this line]

    and conquered demon foes - [Silences a Demon]

    I am a champion for the light, - [Is literally called Light's Champion]

    But in darkness, I fight - [Again, not sure about this, maybe because he never saw play, thus was left in the dark]

    Man, I need to start making my riddles harder. You got it!

    "I stood where no man goes"  is because he has a unique ability. No other card silences a specific tribe.

    "but in darkness, I fight"  is, as you guessed, because he never saw play. Also because "fight" rhymes with "light".

    I'm going to guess Jade Shuriken, some if it's a bit of a stretch, but here's my reasoning.

    I come with a small body on field - [Summons a Jade Golem, which starts out as a small 1/1 body]

    My namesake is something to wield - [A shuriken is a weapon to be wielded, this was the main line that differentiated it from other Jade cards for me, though this could also apply to Jade Claws, but the text refers to "namesake" specifically, not card type]

    Out of context, I shouldn't exist - [Traditionally, shuriken are made from cheap, expendable metals. Jade by contrast would have been incredibly expensive to use in such weaponry, and provides no benefit, thus out of the context of Hearthstone, it wouldn't exist]

    My effect is a chronological hitch - [The summoning effect gets stronger chronologically as you play more Jade cards, not sure about the "hitch" part though...]

    Screaming faces in billowing green - [Looking over all the art for Jade cards, none feature screaming faces, but the Jade Golem token art itself does, when it reaches 20/20 and above]

    My predecessor vanished, but I'll never leave - [The Jade Lotus is animating each Jade Golem with a portion of Kun the Forgotten King's soul, making him their predecessor, and he vanished long ago and, true to his name, was forgotten]

    Answer to the bonus riddle: “No” is an anagram of “oN”, which when’s put against a mirror reveals the word “no” in English. What’s a word that’s interchangeable with “no”? That’s right, “not”, meaning you will not buy him a pack.

    I am not quite sure this fits all of the lines but is it Dinotamer Brann?

    I come with a small body on field (he is only a 2/4)

    My namesake is something to wield (Brann Bronzebeard is a pretty famous card)

    Out of context, I shouldn't exist (I guess this card doesn't make too much sense without the rest of the story)

    My effect is a chronological hitch (I am not exactly sure what "chronological hitch" means)

    Screaming faces in billowing green (King Krush has a green face and is screaming/roaring)

    My predecessor vanished, but I'll never leave (I guess the original Brann doesn't see too much play anymore, though I don't think we can say that this one will 'never leave')

    Fairly certain it's Plaguebringer

     

    I come with a small body on field - 3/3 isn''t huge

    My namesake is something to wield - I think there may be a weapon, or gear in WoW with the same name

    Out of context, I shouldn't exist 

    My effect is a chronological hitch - It's a classic card that never should have existed. 

    Screaming faces in billowing green - Card art shows a screaming green face

    My predecessor vanished, but I'll never leave - It's predecessor vanished  because it was hall of famed. And also was literally Vanish

    Yes, it is Plaguebringer! To be a bit clearer on the reasons:

    The namesake is Plague of Madness, another Poisonous plague.

    The effect shouldn't exist because there are no other Basic cards with Poisonous and the text "Give a friendly minion Poisonous" would not have existed in the Classic set since Poisonous wasn't a keyword at release.

    Your turn.

    Neither of those, don't let the reference to Death mislead you, it's to do with the flavour of the card (coupled with a famous quote) rather than the mechanics.

    They say Death will ride me, - Deathlord Nazgrim is one of the potential Horsemen and his voiceline is "Death was merely a setback"

    My guess would be Spikeridged Steed.

    First two lines reference death - deathrattle - and riding something. The recovery part can refer to the taunt aspect of it.

    The last two lines may refer to its flavour text: “What beats cavalry? Dinosaur Cavalry!” Which may imply a “whole new game” once you click on it and try dinosaur cavalry!

    Flames brighter than Rakanishu,

    "You no take candle!".

    It seems pretty ambiguous, but there are some pretty big hints here and there. This is also the last thing before I'm off to sleep (I live in Singapore and it's 9:30 PM here), so I'll only be able to check your answers in 7-8 hours.

    I am absolutely stumped... my best guess is probably Gladiator's Longbow.

    The first line indicates something to do with a weapon.

    The second line could refer to take on a challenge, and maybe "let me hurray" could mean winning a fight against someone.

    The third line probably relates to the Hunter class and killing lots of stuff.

    The last line could mean it's not a common card, and "bulky prey" could mean it has a lot of attack.

    My second guess is Gorehowl, considering it is a blade and it has a lot of attack, but it has nothing to do with Hunters at all.

    ???

    no sadly, for the hint it is a minion and think it like the card says the riddle not me.

    somehow I think it's Southsea Deckhand, the riddle sounds like pirate-ish. on the other side: are pirates that smart?

    I think it's Luckydo Buccaneer. Naga Corsair would fit as well, but that might be the reference for "no common"...

    (We already got hinted at a minion, a pirate and release in 2016 [WotoG, Kara, MoG], it should be somehow weapon-related and capable of hitting big targets)

    I notice I am confused. Something I believe isn't true. How do I know what I think I know?

    I think it is Luckydo Buccaneer, but for the sake of maybe sneaking a win I'll do an alternate interpretation. It could also be Southsea Squidface.

    Show me a weapon, I will obey - the effect only works if you control a weapon.

    Sharpen your blade and let me hurray! - its flavour text literally mentions sharpening your blade.

    Show me the hunt that you want to slay - I'm not sure on the relevance of this part for Southsea or Luckydo.

    No common blades for a bulky prey - it wasn't really used in Standard until the release of Kingsbane.

    A man is lying on the street, some punks chopped off his head

    I'm the only one who stops to see if he's dead.

    Hmm. Turns out he's dead.

    yeah it is Luckydo Buccaneer;

    Show me a weapon, I will obey - This line says "I'm a pirate"

    Sharpen your blade and let me hurray! - To be able to activate my battlecry, buff your weapon (hurray here means attack like a attacking shout; HURRAAAAAYY ! ; yaaarrrr! would be so easy =) )

    Show me the hunt that you want to slay - This has no hint but binds the line below

    No common blades for a bulky prey - common blades (which is Rogue HP) don't help me kill bigger minions with my 5/5 stats for 6 mana, let me be 9/9 for 6 mana to kill fat guys.

    Your go ! :)

    Big-Time Racketeer? He’s Common yet expensive (precious), he’s only a 1/1, and he summons a “Friend”. Also, that’s a pretty cool leaderboard!

    Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz

    Mogu Cultist ?

    Didn't think "common" hints card rarity and thought like a cultist might be common while it summons a legendary with their call. 7 cultists are pretty common afterall :P :D

    I would guess Former Champ, but it seemed like DestroyerR had the wrong idea when he guessed Big-Time Racketeer. So it is probably Jeweled Macaw
