If [Hearthstone Card (wicked wispers) Not Found] works the same way Shriek if you discarded a card like Boneweb Egg would summon 2 3/2s for 1 mana. that's a pretty big swing.
My feelings are almost exactly in line with Flux's post above. Hearthstone is 'expensive' but so are card games in general. As far as digital CCGs it has set the standard. MTGA is no less expensive. Not sure about LoR but it doesn't look that different to me.
I'm also going to give blizz more than a business day to make a statement or change. It's only been a whole business day on friday and most of the complaints amassed over the weekend. If they don't say something this week then I will start to feel some type of way.
It's also pretty disappointing that they would release it like this in the first place, because this isn't a "oh the community figured out it was too low for us". They knew.
If they just adjust the late track rewards, adjust the exp rate, i'll be fine. The new system itself is cool.
There's a point where it's not a coincidence anymore and we've reached that i believe. There was a reason it took them so long to show EXACTLY how much experience we would be getting and how that equates to rewards. And i don't think it's fair comparing hearthstone to other card games in model because there is no resell value. When blizzard decides the game is over it's over. You get nothing. You lose. Good day sir. And unlike "WoW expansions played as they were then" there won't be a huge community backlash that blizzard will ignore for years before suing the pants off community members that recreated their game before they bring it back, they won't bring it back at all. Even artifact had a resell system. Where you got rewards in game that lead to the ability to get in game currency to buy packs and sell cards on the steam market. Wish hearthstone you get the dust system. Unpack a legendary for a class you don't like playing or will never see play? Guess what you can dust it for 1/4th of what it was originally worth. Tough luck buddy get 3 more lorewalker chos and you'll get something good. In yugioh or MTG or even pokemon cards you can buy a pack from a store for cheap and have the chance of selling what's inside for more based on the card's competitive value(anyone who's watched any maxmoefoe video will tell you that) but in hearthstone you get nothing, it's a closed loop system. And the returns are diminishing based on how much you put into it. In hearthstone you keep cards not because you want to use them but because you hope they get nerfed so blizzard finally gives you an excuse to get a good dust conversion for them. And lately they've even been finding ways to weasel out of that.
Seems like one of the better Corrupt cards worth adding to standard Shaman decks. Not sure how what theme to it suits to build a deck around it though.
Glad they stuck through with secrets for rouge until the end, even if this one isn't that strong. Hope this continues on into the next year (with better support and not just secrets hopefully)/
New Hunter Weapon - Rinling's Rifle
Actually the value is here, but a slow value
New Rogue Spell - Swindle
One of the best value cards in the entire expansion!
New Warrior Minion - Bumper Car
Probably trash card, perhaps good enough for Arena.

New Neutral Minion - Prize Vendor
Coldlight Oracle's little brother... Mrgllll glrrm gl!

New Warlock Spell - Free Admission
Good card for Demon themed deck, a must include!
New Warlock Minion - Man'ari Mosher
Interesting card, but which deck to put it in though? I doubt there are enough good Demons in Standard right now.

New Rogue Minion - Foxy Fraud
Nice, even bigger Edwins from now on... please NO :-(
New Rogue Spell - Shadow Clone
One more secret to consider when dealing with them, I like it.
New Hunter Spell - Petting Zoo
Situational card, would be much better (perhaps even OP) if it counted amount of secrets played this game.
New Rogue Minion - Sweet Tooth
Might see some play, but probably not strong enough for constructed.
New Warlock Spell - Deck of Chaos
If you build your deck right, this can have a seriously positive effect. I see some sort of control warlock with this card in it in the future.
New Neutral Minion - Darkmoon Dirigible
Another filler card for the new expansion, moving on to more interesting cards.
New Warlock Spell - Deck of Chaos
Meme card, nuff said.
New Shaman Spell - Deathmatch Pavilion
Probably the best Shaman card of this expansion, even if it does require your hero to be able to attack.
New Shaman Minion - Pit Master
Seems like one of the better Corrupt cards worth adding to standard Shaman decks. Not sure how what theme to it suits to build a deck around it though.
New Warlock Minion - Tickatus
Meme card at best, doubt it will see any constructed play in standard or wild.
New Rogue Minion - Sweet Tooth
I like stealth aggro rouge, and this feels like a great addition. I still don't think it's that strong, but will see some run over scorpid I think.
New Hunter Spell - Petting Zoo
Super strong card, playable on turn 3 for two 3-3's, or later for even more. I love this card so much.
New Rogue Spell - Shadow Clone
Glad they stuck through with secrets for rouge until the end, even if this one isn't that strong. Hope this continues on into the next year (with better support and not just secrets hopefully)/
New Shaman Spell - Revolve
Fun card, for the memes. Doubt it's worth adding in constructed decks though.
New Warlock Minion - Tickatus
So So SO SO strong. Disruption tool that basically will ruin control v control. I think there's a nerf incoming (cost increase probably).
New Rogue Minion - Prize Plunderer
Only sometimes useful when discovered. Without the Pirate tribe keyword, it is not even worth a single star.
