i hate when people post memes with spelling mistakes in them. Not only the creator is ok with releasing something that hasn't been proof read but then people just repost them. What a world we live in
I'm not saying that the more salacious interpretation is the most common way to read it, but there are lots of ways to say this more clearly. The effort to shorten what Dean said only made it less clear.
Maybe this varies by region or age, but I had no trouble reading this the right way. And even trying to see it the way you’re describing, it’s hard for me to think of “x-style” as code for porn. “XXX-style”, sure, but even that sounds weird to me. (Why would you say “style” there?) A single “X” can mean a million things on its own, but almost never means porn.
I'm also a sucker for TOP X things video/editorial content.
Quick editorial note. The original quote from Dean Ayala makes it very clear that this refers to Ranked Listicles (e.g. Top 10 Year of the Phoenix Hearthstone Cards). Your rewrite seems to unintentionally imply a more pornographic nature to the quote, both by putting sucker in quotes and by adding "-style" to the X. It creates a valid reading whereby sucker is implied to have some double meaning, and Dean's preference is for the best "x-style" content. Taken together, that can easily be read as strongly suggestive.
There's no need for the quotes at all on the word sucker, you'd be better served by either capitalizing "top x" like Dean did, or putting it in quotes (i.e "top x" style content)
According to the schedule revealed yesterday, there will not be any more card reveals until AFTER this event ends (March 18), so we won't be able to use all the Tuskaroons we were going to earn by voting and commenting on cards. Am I understanding that right?
Doom in the Tomb went on too long. If they do another one like it, it has to be shorter.
I thought that was exactly what they’re doing with the card unnerfs coming before the rotation. Overpowered decks of the past return for a short time, but hopefully not for long enough to get boring or for the meta to settle on the most OP one.
Correct me if I’m wrong but from what I understand the nerf reverts to cards that rotate to wild will be active in this state from the patch that introduces the Barrens cads, which will probably happen after the reveal stream on the 22nd, probably the 23rd or 25th of this month, so there will be a period of about a week or so where these cards will be in standard, unnerfed, before the rotation and the new expansion hit, right?
If that’s right, I think I’m even happier with these changes.
I just realized now that I posted this on "Site Support & Bug Reports", sorry guys, I think I should have posted this on "Hearthstone General", I don't do many threads.

Jokes aside, in my 3 years experience as IT (not server directly, but maintenance over clients), all server should have at least disaster prevention tools. In this case, fire extinguisher. Lots of em. (Can't really use water to put out fire in electronic as my supervisor used to say).
Quad-class can actually be done quite well. If we represent the classes from 0 to 9:
0123
4567
8901
2345
6789
Each class is in two individual groups, which is similar to dual-class. The real tricky aspect of this is to group four classes thematically. It could be really cool, though.
Nope, but that was the closest you can get without being right. You see, Risky Skipper is the sadist part in this relationship, but you're looking for the masochist.
"Much of the time spent on the development of the class was nailing the basic design that not much was spent on archetype balance."
Yes, we kind of noticed that :)
Regarding the Daily Deals I both like and dislike the idea. In MTGA this is done quite nicely with mostly card styles on discount and the occasional pack. Not sure how Blizzard will implement this. With regards to the main menu design: Yes please. The whole UI has not aged that well and needs an overhaul imo.
[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
That's correct!
New Neutral Minion - Murloc Tinyfin

Anyone want to complete the play a friend quest with me?
Also, it´s very useful to write the region you have the quest on.

Nerf Reverts in Standart for a weeek?
Yes

Alright considering how powerful that one card was, maybe the word 'evolve' isn't the right word to use in this context :)

Oh right Arcane Golem. The two legendaries still see play but poor Golem definitely does not, maybe that's the answer here after all.
