This should have just removed or made the restrictions a joke, I had a few friends who got back into the game for duels and dropped it since they opened like 20 packs being ftp and got like 5 epics, so they just dropped it again. Was really looking forward to give this news to those friends but the restrictions for treasure 3 are still high.
A new version of Lynessa Sunsorrow, one of my favorite Hearthstone-original characters:
I sort of flipped Lynessa's effect: now instead of greedily taking all of the spells for herself, she has matured as a person and taken up a front-line position where she shares spells with her allies. I gave her +4/+4 over her original iteration because A. she would suck otherwise, and B. it looks like she has Blessing of Kings over her head :D
If you want to play some Hearthstone, but don't know which deck to play, Whizbang's got your back. He'll also add a little bit of fun as you'll get random decks each game. Compared to his original counterpart, his utility is that he will always choose decks you have (and are therefore of higher average quality), but won't allow you to use cards you don't own. He functions as a "random deck" button for when you enter Ranked mode.
Whizbang cannot choose:
Another Whizbang deck.
A Zayle deck.
An incomplete deck.
A Wild deck if you're playing Standard.
If you have no valid decklists for it to choose, then you won't be able to use his ability.
It seems they are slowly removing the constructed minions from the pool. Once the game leaves beta, there should only be Battlegrounds minions left. I feel like they didn't need to remove Crowd Favorite for now. The card was fine. The others won't be missed though. Also, i'm surprised that Junkbot has not been removed. The card is simply not viable in its current state.
Would be nice if they fixed my (and countless others) inability to play over mobile data on a new phone over Sprint/T-mobile phone without using a VPN.
I 100% beleive the nerfs wont make standard meta any betetr and just worse wiht more classes/decks dead/in gutter in even more unhealthy meta(partially due evolve) cause blizz has no foresight when comes to doign balance chanegs at alll.
I wasn't expecting a nerf to Dinotamer Brann at this point. Seems a little bit late for that. The card isn't an issue in Wild, either. The pay off is much weaker now. It's a one mana discount on King Krush with an irrelevant 2/4 body attached. There are other early game cards that could have been targeted to weaken the face strategies (Intrepid Initiate is a big offender) without hurting the late game finishing potential in slower decks. It's just another hit to late game strategies for Hunter (Guardian Animals was the other one). The 8 mana curve is all messed up now.
Blade Dance is weaker now but nothing has been done to alleviate the high damage problem in DH. They can still gain huge amounts of attack and that probably still makes Blade Dance very efficient at what it's already doing. I don't think this will be impactful enough.
Shardshatter Mystic now has the correct cost. It should make DH more vulnerable to aggression but the card is still equivalent in power to Duskbreaker so that might not be enough.
Dreadlord's Bite wasn't something i was expecting to be nerfed. The card is strong but it doesn't feel all that broken. Maybe i'm just blinded by the other almighty cards from the class.
Finally they decided to address Voracious Reader. Hopefully, this will slow hyper aggressive decks enough that they will simply vanish in favor of aggressive midrange decks. The card itself can burn in hellfire though.
Lorekeeper Polkelt enabled so many strategies but people ended up picking him up for hyper aggressive strategies. Hopefully, this will keep him viable for slower builds and kill off his viability for hyper aggro decks. It's good that i have a golden copy so i will gain 1600 dust for free, basically!
As he eagerly waits for the patch to go live, Thrall is cracking his Knuckles.
Watch it dominate casue blizz doesnt ever think ahead with nerfs at all and then watch them nerf a bucnh of classic stuff(like dread corsair) forever instead of nerfing actual problem stuff or doing any buffs/unnerfs for ones that are weak/dead and gonna stay that way regardless of the nerfs.

He's back to being in charge!
Or rather, in a rush.

The December Hearthstone Battlegrounds Update - Old Gods, Spells, New Minions, Rating Reset
It seems they are slowly removing the constructed minions from the pool. Once the game leaves beta, there should only be Battlegrounds minions left. I feel like they didn't need to remove Crowd Favorite for now. The card was fine. The others won't be missed though. Also, i'm surprised that Junkbot has not been removed. The card is simply not viable in its current state.
Hearthstone No Longer Playable on Mobile Devices With Less Than 2GB of Memory
I've never bought a smartphone and the last 2 I've had were from family who updated to a newer one.
Luckily just meet the minimum specs for playing afking battlegrounds when I'm near a new level (the only time I do it).
I'm f2p with a fpff.
f2p = free 2 play
fpff = free phone from family

Nice! Dust for my unplayed Brann - because I own neither Zephiris nor DQA. (Don't think he is too strong though)

Bye bye my golden Polkelt! ^.^
Only downside for me is, that my Aggro-Druid got nerfed by this patch. But I think reader is still viable in this deck (maybe now only as a one off).
EDIT: Oh by the way, Reader is now available in odd decks in wild... this will be "funny". ^^*

They removed the effect of Shadowshell informant or just the "Battlecry" keyword?
