[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
Submitted 5 years, 1 month ago by
DestroyerR
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.

I notice I am confused. Something I believe isn't true. How do I know what I think I know?
Harry James Potter-Evans-Verres, hpmor.com
Not either of those, but DestroyerR was close.

No
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Diving Gryphon.
I am as quick as a rocket, - has Rush.
As small as a frog, - one health, like Frog.
As strong as a boar, - four attack, like Huffer.
Though won’t last long - since it can't go face and only has one health, its only purpose is to attack and die.
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.
Good guess, but no.
Do you guys want a hint?
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Does the first line refer to Rush/Charge or something else?

I'm the only one who stops to see if he's dead.
Hmm. Turns out he's dead.
yes it does.
It does not however, have anything to do with actual rockets.
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Druid of the Scythe.
It has the same stats as Huffer or the frogs created by Rain of Toads, and it's about to rotate into Wild.

I'm the only one who stops to see if he's dead.
Hmm. Turns out he's dead.
Wrong again.
And also stop thinking about huffer.
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Is it actually Stonetusk Boar and we all overthought it? That would be amazing.
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.
it is Stonetusk Boar and you were all overthinking it.
Your next!
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Wait, so what does frog have to do with it? And if it’s strong AS a boar, wouldn’t that mean it’s not a boar itself?
Im not salty you’re salty

I am sorry if that riddle was kinda vague, all of my previous riddles were solved within like 2 guesses so I was just trying to make something harder.

Wow, no bites? Maybe I made it a bit too hard.
First hint: It's a minion that's had multiple appearances in the game.

Khadgar or Medivh, the Guardian ?
Edit: My first guess is Khadgar. btw
Unpopular Opinion Incarnate
Yep, it's Khadgar.
I debuted before I debuted - Was a hero before a minion
I am two and two and two and two - 2/2 for 2 that doubles your summons
When I missile, it's a blast - His Fireblast looks like an Arcane Missile
I am the second, the second, the last - Second Mage hero, second Mage RoS legendary, final boss of RoS

Weasel Tunneler?
I am two pairs and an unknown - you run two of it in your deck, which shuffle two into your opponents; how many more weasels will spawn is unknown
Not the class, but the colour of Rogue - no idea
My effect has nothing to do with my art - true, the weasel looks quite alive (in contrast to deathrattle)
I never end if you let me start - check
Ask my holder, the man shot dead - I'm not into WoW lore, but there are only two human male heros and weasel is mainly played in priest
Playing me doesn't get you ahead - it's all about triggering the deathrattle as often as possible
Current leaderboard:
Edit: A, I just saw that the leaderboard was added to the original post, no more updates needed from my side. Thanks! Try table width 250 though, so all the names fit in.

Harry James Potter-Evans-Verres, hpmor.com
It's not Weasel Tunneler either.
Before anyone gets too far off base, this requires some real-life trivia knowledge. If it ends up still being massively obscure, I can narrow down the possibilities.
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.
Given that it's been a whole day with no guesses, I'll give two hints.
1. It's a spell.
2. Lines 1, 2, and 5 are about real life. 3, 4, and 6 are about Hearthstone.

Roll the Bones ?
No, but close.
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.
Ok so is it, or is it not, a rogue card?
Carrion, my wayward grub.
It is not a Rogue card.
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.
I think I got it - Dead Man's Hand
I am two pairs and an unknown - You use both copies to go infinite.
Not the class, but the colour of Rogue - Shuffle is mostly a Rogue mechanic.
My effect has nothing to do with my art - It doesn't.
I never end if you let me start - Again, you use both copies to go infinite.
Ask my holder, the man shot dead - So it's a dead man holding you in his hand?
Playing me doesn't get you ahead - It doesn't have any impact when you play it.
Right for the wrong reasons, at least on lines 1, 2 and 5.
Dead man's hand is a Poker term, referring to a hand with two black aces and two black eights (black, hence the colour of Rogue) and any fifth card. It comes from folk hero Bill Hickok, who was killed during a game of Poker with that hand. The Hearthstone card is an obtuse reference to that, with a more direct Poker joke in the flavour text.
But still right. Your turn!
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.
Right, I did see somewhere it was a poker term, but I didn't know what it was exactly.
Anyway,
A simple creature, living alone
To novice adventurers a danger unknown

Crazy guess but could It be Reno or Sylvanas? Those are the only 2 I can think of lol
Reno Jackson

I’m much more stylish than my kin,

Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz
Crowd Favorite?
I’m much more stylish than my kin, (He is much more stylish than the other night elves)
I wield that which sears the skin, (he has a sword)
the crowd cheers when I fight, (he is the crowd's favorite. plus, he will gain lots of attack so there will be cheering whenever he punches something)
my deck never took flight (I guess battlecry shaman is good, but there was never a deck where you would cycle through a ton of tiny battlecries in a similar way you would with spells for Gadgetzan Auctioneer)
Carrion, my wayward grub.
I had a feeling that was going to be the first guess lol
Wrong, but good guess
Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz
yeah, it did feel a bit obvious with the whole "the crowd cheers" bit.
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Crowd Roaster almost fits.
I’m much more stylish than my kin, I'm not sure if that fits.
I wield that which sears the skin, It breaths fire.
the crowd cheers when I fight, I don't know if cheer is the right word, but it is a RR card and crowds cheer during that set.
my deck never took flight Dragon decks didn't work in RR meta, and even now Crowd Roaster doesn't see play. Plus, flight pun.

Hmm. Turns out he's dead.
No, although it would fit very w[ell
Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz
I'm thinking Waxadred.
I'm much more stylish than my kin, Waxadred is a Dragon made from candles so I guess you could call him stylish.
I wield that which sears the skin, Waxadred in his card art seems to have hot wax which might burn your skin if you touch it.
The crowd cheers when I fight, I'm thinking it's either the intro music when a Legendary is played, or could be the cheering when you attack with it since it has 7 attack.
My deck never took flight, Shuffle Rogue never really became a thing and is overshadowed by Deathrattle Rogue even thought they received some neat support like Stowaway.
one step closer
Wrong. Hint: “that which sears the skin” is an actual weapon. What weapon sears only the skin (mostly)?

Both are wrong. Don’t think about the literal definition of “sear”: more like this definition:
”(of pain) be experienced as a sudden, burning sensation.”

Oh dear... it’s a whip guys, a WHIP, DONT GET ANY IDEAS PLEASE
Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz
Overlord's Whip?
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Trogg Beastrager ?
I’m much more stylish than my kin, - Troggs don't wear pants and shirts like him,
I wield that which sears the skin, - He wears a whip
the crowd cheers when I fight, - Crowd Cheers because his job is in a circus or somewhere like that
my deck never took flight, - Handbuff has never been a thing for hunter even it has The Grimmy Goons. Just Shaky Zipgunner saw some play in some deathrattle decks but not in handbuff decks.

Harry James Potter-Evans-Verres, hpmor.com
Deathstalker Rexxar then?
No. Call of the Wild was closer.
I notice I am confused. Something I believe isn't true. How do I know what I think I know?
Harry James Potter-Evans-Verres, hpmor.com
Good lord...trial and error I suppose:
To My Side! or Animal Companion. To My Side fits more the "call" clue (since the punctuation can be read as Rexxar catually "calling" them to his side) but Animal Companion would fit more the "love only one" since there's only one beast summoned/in the art so both seem to work (unless it's neither of these as well?). Although Rexxar also says "to my side" when playing Animal Companion, so that would be the more likely of the two now that I think about it.
Beat me to it by 5 minutes . . .
Carrion, my wayward grub.
I'm sorry, but no. You got several things right, though: it's a hunter card and it's a spell. Hint: "Father" does not mean summoning.

Ah is it [Hearthstone Card (C’Thun) Not Found]? The better technology being [Hearthstone Card (Mecha’thun) Not Found] and the OG standing for OldGod rather than original gangster.
Nope. You all are getting the last hint right, but ignoring the first 2. Yes, the 2nd line actually means something. OG is used here in the sense of “original”
Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz
Chillblade Champion?
I’m one of the OG soul thieves - assuming "soul thief" is a reference to Lifesteal & "original" is from WotLK where that keyword debuted?
my text now is kind of tame - only has lifesteal & charge, whereas Zilliax also has magnetic and divine shield?
I was a useful ally in my day, - this has me really stumped so idk here. Have been thinking this was referencing an "Ongoing Effect" card like Timber Wolf or Sorcerer's Apprentice but none of those really seem to fit the other clues?
now technology makes me lame - Zilliax as noted above
Alright, I’ll give some heavy clues seen as you got VERY close.
You got the first line almost completely right. It’s indeed referring to Lifesteal, but I meant even MORE original.
My text NOW is kind of tame - meaning it wasn’t always, and was somehow changed.
The third line is quite literal - it was very useful on the time it was released.
The fourth line, as I said, you got right. In fact, Zilliax is precisely the “technology” I was referring to.
Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz
Mistress of Pain?
Carrion, my wayward grub.
No... so close!
Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz
So then the current version Queen of Pain?
My other guess was the OG Penance that could target heroes? This one:
https://hearthstone.gamepedia.com/Penance_(removed)
Wrong, you’re getting farther...
try to think why I said Zilliax specifically. What minion had OG Lifesteal (which was shortened into the keyword, making the text look tame - Mistress/Queen of Pain is the right idea) and was pretty good until Zilliax came and practically powercreeped it?

Gone

Assuming they meant "go on". Anyway just go for it - you commented first so its yours
Here we go
Fear what lurks in the swamp
But also up in the sky
You can't even scream
When you hear its cry
Ironbeak Owl?
No, sorry
Skyfin?
Fear what lurks in the swamp It is a murloc, which is kind of like a frog, which lives in swamps.
But also up in the sky This particular murloc is in the sky
You can't even scream
When you hear its cry The murlocs that it summons from its battlecry don't trigger their own battlecries.
Carrion, my wayward grub.
No, think more wildly
Ravenous Pterrordax?
Fear what lurks in the swamp - Un'Goro is kind of a swampy jungle and you said it's a Wild card?
But also up in the sky - flying minion
You can't even scream - can't scream because of the hard removal...
When you hear its cry - ...which is caused by the battlecry?
Pit Crocolisk?
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Actually, it was a very short riddle :)
So then the obvious answer is Ben Brode lol
Both wrong. Think up in the sky like the place it is in, it doesnt mean it flies. Btw you are right about cry part, its a battlecry minion.
Wailing Soul or Kabal Songstealer ?
Unpopular Opinion Incarnate
Muckmorpher or Toxfin
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Sadly all wrong. Think a card with scream and who counters it.
No. Works twice, because the card has been HoF'd (so is gone)
Could it be Loatheb?
Fear what lurks in the swamp - It's a bog creature
But also up in the sky - He's in Naxxramas, which is floating or something?
You can't even scream - Psychic Scream
When you hear its cry - His battlecry counters spells
Ding ding ding!!! True!
Its your turn JFK
He never was any good
Horribly out of luck
When his power was shown
Alas, a sitting duck.
Edit to my original guess now that I’ve thought about it more:
Millhouse Manastorm?
just really seems to fit the overall riddle without anything being super “giveaway-y
It's probably Vanish. It works twice because 1) it was HoFed 2) vanish -> gone
Yup! Not exactly amazing, but short and easy was requested.
I'll go back to lurking...
So, you’ve gotten me confused... whose turn is it?
Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz
Jfk guessed both true so his riddle should be solved. There is no problem here
Ignore my interruption
I have guessed Millhouse Manastorm re: JFK’s riddle and didn’t get an answer. That appears to be the only guess vs their riddle atm
Aaah, sorry ArngrimUndying, I thought you were answering frenzy's riddle. That's why I guessed his and caused all this confusion. Oopsy!
It's not Millhouse, but you're on the right track.
My guess would have to be Conjured Mirage!
It was never a good card, and if you played it, you would have to be quite far behind. When its power activates, it leaves you defenseless.
This ain't no place for a hero
Wrong.
So if I was on the right track with Millhouse, I’ll go with Nat Pagle.
Bad card since always you’re unlucky and never have his effect trigger; sitting duck since has no attack value to fight back
Nat Pagle?
Nevermind ArngrimUndying beat me to it. I will just go with the last of the 3 and guess Lorewalker Cho
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Neither of those. It is old and legendary, but not Classic.
Oh think I’ve got it now: Duskfallen Aviana?
Bad card obviously and a “sitting duck” the same way as Millhouse in giving your opponent a 0-mana opening (THAT’S what you meant by I was close with him, not being a Classic). Also not quite Wild yet but 6 expansions old. Also is a bird-person so sitting “duck” works in a punny way.
Legendary, but not Classic, bad power, and maybe aquatic ("sitting duck"). Nat, the Darkfisher?
"The screen door slams, Mary's dress sways"
Hadronox?
It was a horrible legendary, but then later became more powerful, but is now still a 'sitting duck'.
Carrion, my wayward grub.
It's neither of those. Maybe my riddle was too generalized...
Here's a hint: The 1st line is about the card and the 2nd, 3rd and 4th are about the character.
2nd line is also kinda about the card = there's some RNG.
For the record, sitting duck has no special watery/poultry meaning.
Hmmm... maybe the power was THE ABSOLUTE POWER OF Wilfred Fizzlebang? That would explain why Millhouse was close
Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz
Correct! Your turn.
If you multiply my Attack and Health and subtract from that the Cost of my other half, you will receive a number that is three times lower than my Cost. What is my name?
Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz
Dreadscale
4x2=8. “Other half” is Acidmaw with cost of 7.
8-7=1. 1 is 1/3 of 3 which is Dreadscale’s cost.
Well done, your turn!

I’m doing my best to help the cause.
If you help my family and I survive,
We’ll destroy your foes with fangs and claws.
The Last Kaleidosaur?
Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz
Nope
Shudderwock?
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Not shudderwock either. I’ll go ahead and say it’s not a legendary.
First off: Happy New Year to all!
Secondly with no guesses in 12 hours I guess it’s hint time?
First line refers to the lore around the particular breed of minion.
Second line refers to the effect/ability of the card
Third line refers to how to trigger the effect (DestroyerR has the right idea with Pally Quest but not quite right)
Fourth line was a hint about the kind (or tribe...) of the minion
Hmm... Fossilized Devilsaur
This ain't no place for a hero
Nope, the minion is not dead already
Umm... Queen Carnassa?
Not her either - I said above it’s not legendary, which I’ll now narrow more and say it’s a Rare
Volcanosaur then ?
Nope. Beasts aren’t the only kind of minions with fangs and claws..
Nightscale Matriarch?
JFK has it. Nicely done!
This should be an easy one:
First I came dead, then I was alive
I wanted to destroy, now I revive
To new adventurers this is unknown
As I greet them from my standard home
High Inquisitor Whitemane is the only one i can think of
She was one of the four horsemen tokens:
They were dk's so she was dead
Also the effect is to destroy the enemy hero if you have the all four horsemen so she wanted to destroy but now she revives
Also uther of the ebon blade and his tokens are in wild rn. But she is back in standard as a classic card
That's right! You're next.
Lets go then ...
We were made to fight,
But what we want is to dance!
We might look strong,
But we will help enemies plans!
Dancing Swords?
Yes. Its your go!
Show me a new trick
And when the fighting gets hairy
that snake will then see
This night isn’t all that’s scary
Rat Trap?
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Nope - though I get why you guessed that so I slightly revised the line about snakes (plural) since that was a little misleading
Venomstrike Trap?
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Nope. The “trick” isn’t a reference to a secret. Think “new trick” together as one phrase.
Genn Greymane?
Even / odd decks being the new trick
hairy because of genn
the snake is baku which can be viewed as genns rival
their effects being scary
the night a reference to witchwood in general or specifically bakus art
I notice I am confused. Something I believe isn't true. How do I know what I think I know?

You got it all including the reasoning for each line! Well done.
If you strive
To master my art
You gotta feed my knife
If this proves to be too hard, I'll give you the fourth line, which rhymes with the second.

Shadowcaster?
This ain't no place for a hero
Phantom Freebooter?
The card is only good if you've "fed" a weapon and get good bonus stats.
None of those, though I admire the Phantom Freebooter guess.
Hint: the knife has no in-game relevance at all, like a mechanic or a weapon.

Frothing Berserker?
He has a knife in the card art (incoming hot take: this is one of my most-hated card arts in the entire game. Just looks awful.) and gets stronger when people get stabbed (or otherwise damaged). Can't think of what might rhyme with "art" about him though.
Luckydo Buccaneer?
If you want him to be at his best then you have to "feed" your weapon
Carrion, my wayward grub.
Nope. What would you "feed" a knife with?

Well in the riddle you literally say "you gotta feed my knife".
Carrion, my wayward grub.
"What would you 'feed' a knife with?" was me trying to give a hint, no criticism of your guess. I'm sorry for not making that clear. So, what would you "feed" a knife with? I'll give you the fourth line in about 8 hours if there's no real progress by then.
