they won´t do any balance changes until the world championship is over, so we should only get some news that after 14 Dez

yeah I had that bug once or twice already too

fortunately you just need to restart the game and its fine

Sorry for the post I got it. I was thinking the card was Wandmaker. You can close it.

My biggest concern is that all this reward track tweaking and bug fixes are completely taking their focus away from balance changes, which are way overdue IMO. I've stopped playing the game for a while now until they do something about the state of the metagame.

I wish I'd kept one of each older one. I dumbly opened them when I had no common or rares missing for those classes, instead of waiting.

I was playing against a mage and sure RNG was a thing but I didn't expect that much of RNG. He got offered 2 or 3 time an Evocation but one was from Wand Thief. I know the card used to cost one mana but now the cost is 2 mana. Is someone aware of this bug or am I missing something that can explain why he got it ?

NYAN!

Where did this 1-3 classes data come from?

Anyway, Blizzard knows all too well that totally random packs are better for them. They'd never go for a plan that cuts down on the number of packs people have to buy to get the cards they want.

There's nothing entitled about consumers asking for more

This is true when they are paying consumers. People who don't pay for anything but still ask for demand more are the very definition of entitled.

Don't get me wrong -- I completely agree that Hearthstone is way too expensive. But the rewards track is not the place to fix that. If people would quit losing their shit over this trivial nonsense and instead complain about the loot-box foundations of the Hearthstone business model, maybe some actual meaningful change could have occurred.

But no, people fell for the reward track scapegoat ploy, and now Blizzard gets to keep its greedy random-pack system while still appeasing the free players (who never mattered to Blizzard in the first place).

I can see an aggro deck running Sumpsnipe Scavenger (so almost full PnZ) alongside Victor and some augment package, probably Draven as the second champion

Edit: or a midrange like this

I think this is relevant (and fun to watch).  6 Years ago I watched the video when I was playing League, and it's still a sick line for Viktor:

I am the inventor, a bold experimenter. Join as my acolyte and I will be your mentor. Science will destroy you, it will build you anew. The gifts I offer now, eternal power; a new point of view. Steel will fix all your flaws, you will rise above human laws. You will mock them made of meat, they'll drop to worship at your feet. Forget now, the shame of defeat.  Our victory shall be so sweet! Replace all your petty emotions, or keep your blood; you'll bleed oceans! All you little fleshbags stuck with your old hags, watch as their skin sags they're fodder for my labs. Your bodies are so frail. We will be your final nail! This is the revolution…THE GLORIOUS EVOLUTION!

As for the cards, they seem fantastic and thematic for Viktor.  I hope he pans out to be a viable champion.

I’m a little hesitant about the whole “gain random keyword” thing, but other than that I love this design! Viktor has a passive that you makes you want to keep him in the backrow though, so maybe the keyword he gets won’t be that impactful. What I’m mainly worried about are the RNG swings between getting something like Fearsome or Fury versus Elusive, or getting Lifesteal when you need healing. I kind of wish that you got to pick one of three to make it slightly less random. Luckily it’s slow speed, so Viktor will never gain an unexpected Keyword in the middle of Combat.

I wish they would return arena key look based on your record win. I think 12 win key was called a Lightforge Key.

Here's my first Idea.

Not realy satisfied with the Name tough ... 

The art is already taken by Aluneth.

But not only that, it's a Legendary weapon which did not exist until K&C and for a class that doesn't use weapons (which also didn't exist until K&C), so you should change the watermark.

Oh ok ... never knew it wasn't allowed to use old arts - i mean the primer even gets you to an art gallery full of old art from Hearthstone cards ... and is every art used in every competition new ?  or at least not from Hearthstone?

Sure Mage does not have lot`s of Weapons but still got some :) - i decided to go with the Whisper of the Old Gods Watermark because of the Yogg Theme from the Weapon.

Guess i have to think of something else.

Here's my first Idea.

Not realy satisfied with the Name tough ... 

I had an opponent make a few thousand scute bugs in one turn with a crazy combo the either day.  I played a massacre wurm which would have put him at something like -4000 life.  Glad I had that moment before this limit.  

"There's nothing entitled about consumers asking for more" - you're right. But the people asking for more were not and are not "consumers" - they're free-to-play cheapskates coasting on being subsidized by paid players. People who already pay nothing to enjoy the game asking for more is the very definition of "entitled."

... it's exactly 20% easier to get to level 50.
