in the start of hearthstone there were secret quests to archieve wich one give us golds or special cards.
For exemple:
Get all murlocs: recieve the legendary neutral murloc
Same for pirates and recieve the parrot
Get all cards from basic set and gain 100 golds.
Does this still exists? I'm asking because a friend started playing so, if it does i will tell him but if not its not useful to talk about it. And its fun to know that secrets quests still exists, it may be challenging for some.
We can see 10 regions( 8 in game ones + Ixtal and Shirima) , zooming in a bit we also see Bandle city and The void,
Bandle city won't be included since the most key character- Teemo is already in P&Z also lulu is in Ionia..
Now I read on reddit Riot confirmed that there will only be 10 regions but we have 11 bigs ones Shurima is gonna stand alone most likely since it's big, now the question is the void vs Ixtal...
The void has more champions but a lot of them are not geografically there..
that's why I think Ixtal (a 6 champion region in universe) is gonna be the last one.. then it leaves according to the region spread
8 Void champions,5 Yordles and 14 Runeterra champions that do not have any main region so we have them as "travelers".
I discounted those that already have a place btw.
Void:
Show Spoiler
Shuriman Void people": Malzhar,Kassadin,Kaisa - they belonged to Shurima in the past so now they would return there.
Shuriman creatures: Rek'sai and Kog'maw
Ixtal roamer: Kha'zix (he fought Rengar in the jungle)
Unknown: Cho'gath and Vel'koz they can be anywhere.
Bandle city except Veigar and Yuumi all into P&Z, Veigar is probably in Noxus cause of Mordekaiser, and Yuumi is spirit like she would fit Ionia.
Runeterra: Obvious ones:
Show Spoiler
Jax and Zilean: past residents of Icathia, a Shuriman city.
Bard: A celestial spirit so Targon is a natural fit.
Annie: raised in a Noxian territory, can't seem to fit anywhere else.
Fiddlesticks and Evelynn: thematically fit Shadow Isles.
Senna(champion version): Can be both Shadow Isles and Demacia really, she as herself is Demacian I think she will have a tie in mechanic like lucian.
The rest are less obvious at least for me:
Show Spoiler
Shaco: no idea, he has so little lore about him.. he is a demon like FIddle, Evelynn,Nocturne and Tham Kench, I think I saw a story about him in Nxus but that's not a tie in at all.
Ryze: He is a mage that travels the continent I don't think he has a home region.. at all.. I think they will just give him a back story like teemo in a region probably in Ixtal.
Brand: His origin is Freljord but having a fiery card in Freljord would be weird since he is using elemental magic I would say he will be in Ixtal but I am probably wrong about this one.
Nami: she is a fish so Bilgewater…? not really..? she has some divine powers so maybe taragon? dunno…
Kindred: The spirit of death.. Shadow Isles right? probably right huh… they don't actually belong there though.
Alistar: We don't know much about him, but I can see him in Noxus.
Aatrox: The Darkin are originally from Shurima, failed ascended but his color scheme and warmongering reminds me of Noxus..
So what do you think? do you think the last region will be Ixtal.. or I am wrong and the void will be a region by itself? do you think you can find of a good placement for the 7 none obvious "runeterran" champions what about Cho'gath and Vel'koz?
Well this reminds me to something i predicted 2 months ago in the Hearthstone's Book of Heroes - Datamined Release Order of All Heroes article... To quote myself:
"Also i'm really looking forward to Uthers book of heroes. I don't actually know too much about Uther, except for the fact that he teached Arthas, and that he was killed by Arthas, who was corrupted by The Lich King/Frostmourne. I wonder if the Uther book of heroes will end with "Uther gets killed by Arthas, and his soul (As we now know) partially absorbed into Frostmourne." That would be a unique twist to the book of heroes, as none of the other book of heroes ended like this yet. Either way Uthers book of heroes will probably include a bit of Arthas action."
CALLED IT, and i'm so hyped for it already! (But of course first Garrosh Book of Heroes, which will also be very interesting!)
Also all the new art for these reskinned cards like Silver Hand Zealot and Silver Hand Crusader look amazing! I WISH the book of heroes skins also changed the art on specific cards. That would have been so cool, it's so unfortunate that these really cool reskins of cards are pretty much only used for book of heroes... (adding these card skins would be a good trade-off for not having new animations on the hero-power & etc. with book of heroes skins i.m.o.)
Here's hoping that they stick to their promises and keep up the progress. It won't be easy to fix the damage that has already been done to the community, but if they keep it up, the rewards may actually be enjoyable again.
I'm a fairly decent player but I'm no 80% plus WR Hearthstone Pro. The point of this post is to reiterate how unbelievably strong this deck is. Obviously now considering they nerfed 2 of the core cards. I could care less what the "community" thinks, I like to win, I play to win, I like to play powerful decks and I play the decks I have cards for (I'm FTP and have never spent a cent on this game).
That's fine, but if you don't care what the community thinks, then why are you making a thread on a community forum about the deck? We already know the deck is (was?) very strong, so you aren't giving us any new information.
(Complete aside that is not aimed at you but rather all users of American English: "I could care less", by which you mean "I could NOT care less", is one of the few genuinely annoying Americanisms. David Mitchell's video sums it up better than I could: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=om7O0MFkmpw)
There is zero chance we'll ever let anyone see who is upvoting and downvoting content. In my experience, it just leads to harassment when people go after those that downvoted them. It creates a toxic atmosphere, especially when you downvote someone trolling and that troll now knows who "got their jimmies rustled" so they can go after them. Preventing that scenario from even happening is A+ in my book.
Upvoting yourself is an odd one, I will agree. The reason behind it though, which I know I've mentioned in the past somewhere but since we have a fresh thread on it let me repeat it, is because it gives us more flexibility. If you go through the deck database, not many people upvote their own decks. I'm willing to wager if a person doesn't upvote their own deck initially, there is a higher chance it isn't a deck worth looking at. Maybe someone is using the site to catalog decks they like. It's sort of a power-user feature so people that know it exists and are writing good deck content can make use of it to get themselves higher in the initial rankings.
Now, upvoting your own comments just comes from the silliness that is us using the same voting system for everything on the site. It might be a bit strange, but honestly, we'd just be starting everyone at +1 anyway without it so its another opportunity for people to signal boost themselves if they think they wrote something worth seeing.
Ultimately though, the points don't matter much and its just something fun. It's super easy feedback to give since it is low effort and if people really need to upvote themselves, I'm okay with it =D
I don't know if this is because of this patch or has been liek that the whole time but I just received the shaman achievement to "deal 16 damage with my hero in one turn" by playing Hagatha, the Witch.
also don't get offended when you get downvoted specially when you said something you know might be unpopular
For example when you express the opinion that a control deck should be nerfed, because all smart players know that only aggro decks have to be nerfed. Always. ^^
It's easier to win against a deck that wins after 20 turns than one that wins after 4 maybe that's why
Name one deck in the current meta which (regulary) wins after 4 turns, please.
token druid totem shaman demon hunte
Demon Hunter on turn 4? Never seen before. And yes the other two decks can kill you with a perfect draw, when the enemy does nothing for 3 turns. But my question was: "Name one deck in the current meta which (regulary) wins after 4 turns". I played Aggro Druid more than once to get Legend and I can tell you that you not regulary kill your opponent in 4 turns with this deck. 5, 6, 7 turns sure thats the norm - but in 4 turns is an exception and not the rule.
And Totem Shaman is so weak at the moment, on turn 4 is often the time they surrender, because I kept their board constantly low so there is no "turn 4 wombo combo" with the axe and no real way to come back for them on the board.
EDIT: About the real topic: Maybe it could make sense that there is not in every part of this site and up- and downvote feature. As several users stated this feature can be useful to identify troll comments in the news section faster. But in some parts of the site I think this feature is "kind of useless", because it just shows how popular an opinion is, which says little to nothing about the quality of the rated post.

I agree on the shuffling being linked to it triggering, the only way to counter the shuffling is to nopify/deny it makes it quite unintuitive, most effects that require a target entirely fizzle if the target gets removed or spellshielded..
So.. I think adding more counterplay to it would be enough.
Well, you could make an argument for Pack Your Bags being better than Ruination if they were the same mana cost, the card is the most ridiculous thing I've seen since Patches in Hearthstone. Most of the people in LOR Discord defend the card though for some reason. Apparently shuffling 2 copies into your deck and pulling it 3 times is debilitatingly hard to do for them. Even if you can make an argument to say it's not overpowered, you can't make an argument that it isn't a gross amount of powercreep for a one mana spell. The best solution for this card is to probably remove it from the game actually. It makes pretty much any midrange deck nonviable, and is going to still be oppressive with any small nerfs it gets.

Last region and champion distribution
So I have been lurking abit on reddit and found a thread being glad we now don't have spoilers it's time to speculate.
Looking at the map of runeterra: https://map.leagueoflegends.com/en_US
We can see 10 regions( 8 in game ones + Ixtal and Shirima) , zooming in a bit we also see Bandle city and The void,
