I won 2 games with this so far but both were against slow priest decks so I'm trying to improve it. If you think you see any changes I can make feel free to let me know.
Having a Imprisoned Satyr to play two turns before the combo is good sometimes too for more damage but it is purely RNG I was lucky enough to have it hit my Shadow Hunter Vol'jin and I was able to Solar EclipseMoonfire and Malygos for way more damage in the first iteration of the deck where I included it but I cut it out to attempt to have a stronger early game with Lunar Eclipse
I included cards like Bone Wraith, Winged Guardian, and Circus Amalgam for stall but there are probably better options. I originally had Teacher's Pet instead of Circus Amalgam and it was probably a bad change and there are probably better options to stall than both of those.
I'm glad whenever that happens. It does take more time and effort to be constructive, to be sure. I think in more specialized places (forums or subreddit) there are more people who are already invested in certain subjects. While general population has such a wide scope.
But I also found out about the existence of that deck right here, so there's that. And gonna miss spell damage totem for other reasons as well.
Where is there poor communication and spreading of misinformation? The quote from the game director literally says:
It's more in the Slay the Spire vein
There's no lack of communication, they've stated exactly what it is and the community is echoing that. If Mercenaries actually wasn't inspired by Slay the Spire, then they wouldn't have said that it was. They'd have told us where they got their idea from, or at least tell us that it's not like Slay the Spire.
I don't disagree with you that from what we know it does look a bit more like Darkest Dungeon, but there is absolutely no reason to not trust Blizzard in this case. Who cares if the new mode is actually inspired by Raid: Shadow Legends?
“Teen Spirit” is a skill not a spell, so Shurima has only 1 Landmark removal now. I expect it’ll be like playing against Ezreal Draven with Scorched Earth.
We know there are many changes in store for the reward system as the year rotates. The one thing I want more than any other change is this:
The ability to opt out of weekly quests for different game modes.
I don't want to deprive anyone of such quests if they enjoy them, but it's supremely annoying that I have to reroll a weekly quest several times before I get one that involves the primary game mode. More than once this has left me with just three or four days to complete a quest that I would normally have the whole week to work on.
Coercion is not the best way to get people to like something.
Lol I'm still not use to the new acronym -- I saw this threat title and thought it might have something to do with the launch of a new Fitbit-integration feature. :-P
Once upon a time, not so long ago, people would leave out the prepositions and articles when abbreviating things like titles. (And it's an abbreviation, not an acronym, unless you actually do try to pronounce it like a word.)
So in this case, why not just call it FB? Even better, just say "Barrens." Your meaning will never be mistaken.
If your opponent has lethal on board, you are perfectly capable of ending the game yourself.
If your opponent emotes sarcastically or too much, there's a Squelch command.
You don't actually know if the opponent is roping to annoy you or to legitimately think. Either way, it's not that much time, so you can put Nozdormu in every deck or get over it.
If you are triggered by which cards your opponent hovers over (seriously?), it's definitely your problem, not theirs.
The only real BM in Hearthstone is people who send a friend request just to swear at you for playing a certain card, deck, archetype or class.
If we were always so vigilant about triggers, we as a society would have a tragically tepid body of literature, art and video games.
It's up to the individual with the problems to avoid things that might make them depressed. It is not the job of artists or game developers to protect their audience from sadness. (Indeed, negative feelings are often intentionally invoked as a way to provide catharsis.)
Finally, I don't think we know much about when the next rotations happens. It sounded like the Barrens set will be out whenever it is ready, which could be anywhere from mid March to late April for all I know.
Pre-purchase offers end March 22. To my knowledge, that has never been incorrect as an indicator of the launch date. It's pretty much always the very next day, or at least later that week.
Blizzard using STS as the reference point is more than enough justification for the community to do the same.
Poor communication on Blizzard's part, compounded with the spreading of misinformation by the community? Sounds a lot like what happened with the launch of the rewards track, so I'm going to have to disagree.
My first duplicate Legendary before they first introduced duplicate protection. I was happy to get him the first time, but boy, was I disappointed the second time...
There is still fast speed as well, and I don't personally see any issue with fast speed. I think some buffs see too much play, like Troll Chant for one.
Well, apparently no one else is allowed to play landmarks anymore. Shurima has two different ways to kill any landmark, one free (and upside if it's your own) and one a way to kill a landmark with a body attached (and upside if it's your own) - and they have buckets of landmarks that they don't care if they die and may even want to kill them.
So, good luck, Aphelios, with your Temple dreams. Pretty sure the days of the Temple's dominance are numbered.

Rek'Sai is a champion from League of Legends; she's a monstrous sand shark-esque creature from the Void. She can sense enemy footsteps from far away, mark enemies with a void blast and then dive-bomb those people to carve them up.
I started this small project a while ago (around September or October can't really remember), but abandoned it because my early concepts were way too complicated. I came back to it after creating my Core Set the other day and really streamlined the mechanics down to what they are now. I'm not completely sure about balance but I am very happy with the flavour and mechanics. Any feedback would be much appreciated, especially from the Battlegrounds crowd as this is my first foray into designing cards for that particular game mode.
I think it won't work with The Rekindler as you obliterate an ally, not kill it. It would have to die later different way.
If you cast Ancient Hourglass on an allied The Rekindler, it will resurrect a 2nd champion when released from Stasis Statue. (You will need to have had a Champion die earlier of course, but that's generally not too difficult to arrange.)
Vol'jin Druid OTK Druid
Deck ID Not Found
I won 2 games with this so far but both were against slow priest decks so I'm trying to improve it. If you think you see any changes I can make feel free to let me know.
COMBO: Shadow Hunter Vol'jin the Wisp to summon Malygos then use Innervate ( Coin and Lightning Bloom work as well just depends on the match but you have to keep one of those for the combo. ) to play Solar Eclipse + Germination to copy it and double Moonfire face.
Having a Imprisoned Satyr to play two turns before the combo is good sometimes too for more damage but it is purely RNG I was lucky enough to have it hit my Shadow Hunter Vol'jin and I was able to Solar Eclipse Moonfire and Malygos for way more damage in the first iteration of the deck where I included it but I cut it out to attempt to have a stronger early game with Lunar Eclipse

I saw Taliyah and thought, "Landmark synergy? That seems dumb."
Then I looked at the support cards. Well, this is different.
And yeah, if you're a different region playing landmarks against Taliyah, you might as well insta-concede (at least as things look right now).
