Kiri, Chosen of Elune is played even less with only 1.2% of decks above Diamond 4 including it. Winrate remains bad at 43%.
Definitely not the right flavor for Druid right now, but that's okay, I still think Solar Eclipse is a cool card and there's a good chance we could see more support for it in the mini-set coming up that extends Darkmoon Faire or the first expansion next year.
That's one of the most fun things about card game releases. You get these tools that aren't immediately great but they almost always get a follow-up.
the only time i ever played Darkmoon Rabbit is when i discovered it off a second Athletic Studies and at that point it was 8 mana instead of 10. Still terrible, but i was playing against a rez priest with 3 [Hearthstone Card (convincing infiltrators) Not Found] so it was a pretty epic play
Solar Eclipse is one of my favorite cards of this expansion. Though I wonder if the existence of Kiri, Chosen of Elune messes with inclusion rates. Since this card produces the eclipses?
I have seen a lot of decks use it for high cost combos like Cenarion Ward. I however find it having a lot of success midgame to double up card draw or finish of an opponent.
Despite all the negatives surrounding montization, I really enjoy this expansion. This year over all has produced really interesting sets.
Friendly reminder that all of the staff reviews during reveal season are now, and have always been, completely 100% accurate and we are totally infallible. We have never gotten a single card wrong once in our lives. Nope. Not at all. Never. None.
Reminder: HSReplay shows top decks from bronze to gold for free. If you're higher on the ladder, the info in there might not be the most accurate, unless you pay a subscription.
So many problems and if some people are too busy defending Blizzard its at their own loss.
Not gonna go in and add more stuff to the pile of problems but recently i just found out something REALLY FUNNY. Zalae posted on twitter that he doesnt know if the battle pass is good or not but HE DOES KNOW he didn't buy it.
Now thats funny and shows how bad the whole thing was publicised by Blizzard
It's not even about the Battle Pass anymore. The fiasco with the Battle Pass has just served to wake people up to all the problems with the way the game has always been operated. I think Blizzard is permanently losing a LOT of players who have just had enough - they don't want to give another dime to a company that they now see as greedy and corrupt.
This story of people "waking up" to the greed is more than a little overdone. Here's a post on their forums from the early days of COVID in the US where someone is complaining that Blizzard should be giving away more free stuff to...help frontline workers or something like that? And here's an r/hearthstone post from years ago with mostly the same theme of Blizzard being too greedy.
And this is not unique to Blizzard - Wizards of the Coast gets its fair share of hate too. Here's a petition that cites a popular MTG youtuber talking about the predatory designs of MTGA, and an article from last July about the greedy (at the time) new Mastery system in MTGA. The fact is, the internet is full of people complaining about how greedy CCG companies are whenever they make any changes, because in that moment those people feel personally that they're not getting the value they want for their money.
In some ways, this gets back to a response from @clawz161, who said "Packs and cards don't have REAL VALUE...[because] you can't [resell your cards] in hearthstone, and the devs will never allow you to do that." This argument is flawed, and sits at the heart of the "greed" discussion. Hearthstone cards do have real value for anyone who enjoys playing Hearthstone because value isn't defined exclusively as "resale value." What value these digital products have will vary person to person, and if someone sees that value equation flip for them in a game they enjoyed, they cry out "this is greedy!" because the value equation no longer works for them.
I'm not saying Blizzard and WotC and companies like them should not do more to make their games more F2P friendly. I would love to see these games be more F2P friendly. But I think Blizzard has taken steps over the last year to do just that. They can do more, but they deserve some credit for what they've done.
Can we talk about how retarded arena is as a gamemode? One moment you think you're winning by a mile and then your opponent topdecks a card that discovers a perfect answer to your board state followed by another topdeck that discovers a card that discovers a card that wins them the game.
That's not true. The sad thing is that even if you buy al lthe preorders, you still have to grind experience/gold to get everything you want. Which is even more damning for F2P players.

K'thir Ritualist & Darkmoon Rabbit I would only use in a constructed deck. The rest are good for arena.
Where can I find a list of the top ladder decks?
We made a post five days ago: https://outof.cards/hearthstone/2259-the-top-standard-hearthstone-decks-for-each-class-in-darkmoon-faire. The meta might have shifted, but the best decks there should still be good.

I just need one win to finish this damned quest. I don't really play ladder and I can't find a list of the top decks on this site.
Thanks

Yeah, it happened as you said. Thanks

Neat idea! Worth running a Tour Guide in case you don't have the Lightning Blooms when needed?

DK Rexxar is for value games: if you wanna close the game as fast as possible, he's just not worth the slot.

It happens to me all the time, just restart the game and you'll get the XP for the second quest. Still annoying though
Hot take - Blizzard is actually not that bad

Ah yes, finishing 2 quests at the same time and only getting XP for 1. Good job, Blizzard.
Half and Half
Had the same idea! I feel less original now haha. Played against a facehunter with full beasts!

Grim Tutor - Card Design Competition Discussion Thread
@Ekkeh
3 is the proper wording. For the card itself, it looks quite well.
I decided that I will go with Rallying Imp, because Mrrgluh is quite similar to Ringmaster Whatley.
Grim Tutor - Card Design Competition Discussion Thread
Chickychick: I'd stick with the Murloc, it looks good to go.
Ekkeh: I agree, number 3 looks best. It's a solid card, nothing to criticise from my side.

It not only was but still is (just checked) and in the screen there are 3 BUY buttons.
