My favorite Casters from this list:

• Blink Fox - Mind Thief is just too cool to ignore. Considering there are boss abilities and the like that players wouldn't normally have access to, this could be a really fun character to mess around with.
• Jaina Proudmoore - I like Freezing people, and she could combine well with others who can Freeze (like The Lich King). Plus she's a waifu, so there's that.
• Xyrella - Neutering an enemy's Attack could make them worthless. Her Flash Heal is whatever, but it works toward upgrading Atonement so that's fine. Use Atonement against Protectors (or combine it with Diablo's Apocalypse) for insane damage.

Attributes of a roguelike game:

• Procedurally generated -- CHECK
• Permadeath -- CHECK (Within the context of a single bounty run)
• Turn-based -- CHECK
• Emergent gameplay -- OK, not really, but I don't think this is your complaint
• Resource management -- CHECK
• Focus on killing monsters -- CHECK
• Discovering different magical items each run -- CHECK

To say Mercenaries is without ANY Roguelike mechanics is just plain ridiculous.

Also, I don't know where you are getting the 2,000 packs figure. To collect all of the Mercenaries, you need less than 300 packs. To fully level them up and upgrade them, you have to actually play the game -- Merc XP cannot be found in packs. And in the course of playing the game, you'll get plenty of coins, which will both upgrade the Mercs you have and unlock new ones without needing to buy packs, so this is FAR from a "full gacha."

It seems every part of your comment is grossly misinformed.

Any chance to get the Diablo dark wanderer art? from the skins

My favorite Fighters from this list:

• Diablo - Speed kills, and Diablo can seriously slow down an opponent with Doom Charge, then punish everyone with Fire Stomp. Apocalypse could allow for a 100-to-0 nuke against a target, which will be immensely satisfying.
• Tirion Fordring - I think Divine Shield will be great, becoming more impactful as abilities ramp up in damage. Providing DS to the whole team could seriously upend your opponent's turns. Judgment of Humility could just outright negate an Attack-based character, too.
• Valeera Sanguinar - Her damage output looks incredible, and Fan of Knives can ensure you're always going first when you need to (keeping in mind the Cooldown). With Twin Blade Daggers you could boost your allies' Speed by 6 at max tier, which seems insane.

it was buffing itself sometimes

My favorite Protectors from this list:

• Cairne Bloodhoof - I think Speed will be King in a lot of ways, so improving your team's Speed or slowing down the enemy will be strong. Cairne can do both, while also being able to heal himself or gain Taunt when necessary.
• The Lich King - TLK does a lot of similar things to Cairne; the slows from Frostbite aren't as immediately impactful but they are permanent. The two might even go well in a party together, doubling down such that the enemy always goes last while you punish them for it with Mercs like Diablo.

Would you look at that...
52 at launch

Looks like CaptainKaulu got it spot on

That's too bad.  I got a good laugh out of seeing my Macaw buff its attack to 22,000.

laziness

Wait Galewing got nerfed not buffed... Or I suppose changed... before it was straight upgrading you for free, not just discounting

Really cool art

Where is this patch??? I don't see anything!

This was datamined. There has not been a new version released.

• Defiant Shipwright has been removed from the minion pool.
  • Attack is now 6 (Up from 4).

Say what?

• Shudderwock
  • Snicker-snack Hero Power
    • Now costs 2 mana (Up from 0).

Very much like this change. Makes abusing early tokens to get early five-six drops much more difficult / dangerous. Makes the hero less explosive, but retains the tactical feel of pulling of explosive mid-late game shudderlings.

The Dark Wanderer! Always travelling East... 🔥🔥🔥

The Prime Evil! The Seven Evils are one within him! 🔥🔥🔥

Big Red himself, in all his glory! 🔥🔥🔥

Arise Diablo, Lord of Terror! 🔥🔥🔥

Where is this patch??? I don't see anything!

End of the month. If you really want that bonus (which is quite nice to have, reaching Legend never felt this easy) you should just camp at that spot...although that's really boring and I wouldn't recommend it.

Unless you plan on playing garbage decks for the rest of the month it shouldn't be too hard to maintain your current rank until the end.

Where does all the info come from? Has there been an update I missed?

They reverted Chargla? Damn

Impatient Doomsayer is a nerf, both changes are negative afterall

This Natalie Seline looks much younger so I'm guessing it's her starting portrait that represents her early pre cult times.

I was EXTREMELY dissapointed with the game mode. They offered Roguelike and made a Gacha without ANY Rogue-esque mechanic. This is a full Gacha that needs close to 2000+ packs to be completed and they offer 2 measly packs? even if it was 20 most Gachas offer close to 50+ "packs" in currency and summons and whatever to start. 2 is spitting in the face of the playerbase.

Apparently her model was updated in Shadowlands, this art seems consistent with that.
