    Initial idea, but shaky on the balance and Neutral.  I think it's a cool effect, but I'm not sure about giving Secret access to all classes, even if it is a bit conditional and slow.  Pretty happy with the flavor though.

  • The Hearthstone Holiday Sale On Battle.net Isn't a Sale

    I'm not going to lie I was hoping for a new portrait bundle and I'm kinda disappointed we didn't get one this year

  • Battlegrounds gives me 2nd place without the final fight. Anyone else?

    OK, that makes sense.

    Let's hope they fix the bug as soon as possible, it is so infuriating to get 2nd place in a fight you were suppose to win. I mean... Is Battlegrounds, you do lose fights you are suppose to win by getting unbelievable scammed, not like this.

    I might say that they learned their sales of C'Thanks Bundle earlier in the month is not working very well.
    One might say, that pushing another bundle close to that is a bad idea. But the more I think, there's nothing bad about putting any bundle sale on store anyway.

    This is purely assumption.

    I'm thinking of just reusing this card I used earlier this season since it did pretty good and I'm quite fond of it.

  • Battlegrounds gives me 2nd place without the final fight. Anyone else?

    I've had this and I'm pretty sure this is just a bug where the guy in 1st place was a DC but for some reason, they still show their health so they are always in 1st since they have like 30 HP and above. So in your last fight, there are only 2 and not 3 people remaining. Technically you're in 1st place but the game doesn't register it as so.

    Also, this is why if you fight someone early on and for some reason, they are registered as a KT but still have Health, that person is going to be the 1st place ghost. I'm not sure if this can make it so there are 2 or more in the same lobby but I hope that that isn't the case.

  • The Story of Jaina Proudmoore: The Missing Pages of Book of Heroes

    Quote From Alleria

    This guide is pure gold for us who have no idea about WoW lore. I´ve read it with great excitement, thank you :)

    One question, is this the end of Jainas story or is/could possibly be there more? Like when they release new WoW content, or is the story closed as a whole allready? Just curious :) (Sorry if stupid question, I´m an WoW noob :D)

    Wil be more story in future with Jaina , ive not palyed wow in some time now but i believe currently she is captured amt in the maw/torghast of shadowlands and will be more once players eventually free her.

    (correct me if im wrong ive not been keeping up with shadowlands lore really)

  • Got back into expeditions and found myself in a cheese factory

    Hey everyone, 

    to those who don't really play expeditions frequently proably won't be able to relate to this post so I am not sure if that post will be for you.

    For those who do play expeditions frequently I would like to know if it is normal for expeditions that decks are that close to contructed level on low win counts that most of them have a cheesy way to end games without many ways to interact as the opponent, with cards that pretty much close the game once they hit the field and where your best bet is spray and pray that they don't hit their wincondition earlier than you can beat them. 

    What kind of decks am I talking about? I talk about The Grand Plaza decks Lee Sin deck s Fiora decks with Unyielding Spirit (actually also) Teemo shroom decks with tons of the "both-player-draw" cards and removal (the classic) elusive spam perfect curve daybreak or all in noxus, decks that are so extreme at what they do that you have no way beating them at their game and where you have to find ways around them with your own kind of cheese. 

    It feels kinda terrible to play that kind of expeditions where your deck needs to be crazy good to survive even the early rounds because the deck quality feels to be through the roof. 

    I mean there are plenty explanations to me for this which are:

    -only hardcore limited players are playing expeditions anymore

    - there are 3rd party programms used  widely that assist with deck creation 

    - powerlevel of cosmic creations is just busted in limited

    - consistancy of draft themes is too high

    - me being unlucky with the matchups (which is unlikely since then it would not have been that frequent)

    Proably it is a mix of all of these factors. I just can say that play expeditions like this feels extremely hard to compete in and are just miles away from the experience i had the last times playing expeditions. 

    I don't know if that is possible but i feel like riot should reduce the theme consistancy of decks so that cheesy onetrick decks are less a thing but who am I to judge...

    What have you experienced yourselves? Have you been to expeditions since cosmic creations? If so: how has it felt to play in it? Did you experienced the cheesy onetrick issue aswell? Do you know a solution other than doing the same?

    I don't enjoy a semi constructed limited where both players try to outcheese each other with their strats and removal is so rare and weak that you can't stop the cheese...

  • The Hearthstone Holiday Sale On Battle.net Isn't a Sale

    I am a little disappointed.  I don't need the cards, I just like opening packs.  I usually get some Amazon gift cards for Christmas that are good for deals like we've had the last couple years.  

  • Would be nice to get an achievement addon.

    I'd like something for quests too, especially with these new quests where you have to play minions 30 times or dealing 200 damage or using hero power 50 times.

  • The Hearthstone Holiday Sale On Battle.net Isn't a Sale

    I wouldn't buy anything anyway. I want to. I want to collect and have decks and all that. I've even got disposable income burning a hole in my pocket and everything. Oh, well. 

  • Would be nice to get an achievement addon.

    We have Hearthstone deck tracker and Hearth arena addons/ overlays, it’s be great to get one to help with or track achievements.

    At the moment I either screenshot or wrote down ones I want to try for as I’ve a terrible memory and forgot what’s needed. It’d be good if there was an overlay/addon to help with them. Would it even be possible though? 

  • The Hearthstone Holiday Sale On Battle.net Isn't a Sale

    It might be that they're playing it safe, since the midexpansion is likely to come after new year. Having just more or less quell the uprising it would be kinda bad to risk it by selling stuff like these when its obvious that a midexpansion 20 bucks package is likely to come by a few weeks later.

    Either way, I almost never buy these stuff. 6 packs from previous expansions, when 3 of them will be rotating in 3 months time? Not really my thing.

  • The Hearthstone Holiday Sale On Battle.net Isn't a Sale

    They can't give us discounted stuff after they were just so awesome about fixing the Rewards Track that they introduced with absurdly low rewards. 

  • The Hearthstone Holiday Sale On Battle.net Isn't a Sale

    Sale aside, the fact that latest expansion packs cost exactly the same as expansion packs from several years ago always appeared strange to me. Guess it is because of dust. Some sort of promotion would not hurt them though. In general I think HS could make more money with a more intelligent monetization, but that is another topic

  • Secret Santa Snowdown - Card Design Competition Discussion Thread

    I mean, it is about the same power level as the actual Freeze Shaman cards, so 🤷🏼‍♂️

    (Even if they're from different sets, this card is actually a decent follow up for Living Dragonbreath)

    The exact tie to a recurring decimal. And from a differently scored votes too, cool! CG guys! :D

  • Battlegrounds gives me 2nd place without the final fight. Anyone else?

    Staff

    This is weird, you can get awarded a 1st place in a three-way, if the 3rd person dies to KT while ur fighting, but getting 2nd? That is weird. Havent had that happen to me tho.

  • Secret Santa Snowdown - Card Design Competition Discussion Thread

    Unless I'm mistaken, I hit all three prompts with this idea ;)

    I actually quite enjoyed the tone of this article.  Well done Flux :P

  • Battlegrounds gives me 2nd place without the final fight. Anyone else?

    Hello everyone

    This is the third time this has happened to me, this time i'm asking the community if it's the same for them. Every time this has happened my chances to win the last fight are really high but my health is lower than the guy that gets 1st place, the fight never happens.

    What happened: I'm playing a Battlegrounds game and doing really well. For example, the last time it happened I'm using elementals, my minions are really big (60+/60+ stats, divine shield, wind fury, 80/150+ taunt) and only 3 people left (me and 2 more), I get to fight a real opponent, the other guy get's to fight a ghost, I destroy my opponent and i'm ready to go for the final fight but the Battleground game ends and i'm awarded 2nd place with no final fight.

    Like i said this has happened to me 3 times by now in the last week, has anyone else see this? 

    Edit: Oh and in case anyone was wondering, I know is not a visual bug due to the fact that I didn't make the first place achievement with the hero that I was using in that fight.

    Congratulations to grumpymonk and DavnanKillder!

    Also want to apologize to FieselFitz: I gave you an okay for Kragg, but you were disqualified anyway. That's on me :(
