I'm going to assume her current emote is related to the Fire Festival, as are all of the Greetings emotes currently. When the Festival ends her emote will go back to normal...
Yeah, I love me some Stealth Galakrond, even before the secret nerfs. To add to the mulligan recommendations, Backstab is often a good keep, and therefore with coin Edwin VanCleef can also be strong against some classes if you already have Backstab (like, not Priest).
But that's my point, in those situations, you might feel like your reasons are good… you feel like you might have people who love you, but you are a burden they have to bear and would be better off without you, and it was worse in Byron's case with “horrible people” (don't really want to use here the term REALLY feel like using) actively encouraging those negative thoughts and giving apparent validation to them. I'm also sorry for reacting angrily earlier too, I shouldn't have assumed what you meant.
I love the effect on Zrukx. It's a fitting finisher for Hunter, which already has hero power synergies and is the class with the most 'closer' cards like this. Regarding balance, 2 damage might be better - even six hero powers, which seems average for a deck trying to do that to have on turn 10, is already a scary 18 damage.
Even though I get the idea, though, of a ship captain blastin' his cannons, I don't feel like that's enough to justify him being a Pirate. It's a thought I've been having while looking at a lot of the submissions for this contest; giving a class their first Pirate should be momentous and justified. The card should be a build-around for a class Pirate archetype like Bloodsail Corsair, twist a class-specific spin on neutral Pirate flavor like Cutthroat Buccaneer or Cursed Castaway (integrating Rogue's stealy-wealy Combo into their Pirate identity), or have overwhelming Piratey flavor like Captain Hooktusk, who summons her own crew. Zrukx fires his cannons, but that doesn't involve other Pirates, call back to any neutral Pirates, or have an overwhelmingly Piratey feel.
As an idea, maybe you could lower his stats and make his text something like 'Battlecry: Summon a 1-1 Crewmate for each time you used your Hero Power this game. Deal 3 damage to a random enemy for each.'? Making a board adds some stats and maxes out the damage at 18, which seems more balanced if ruinous to the meme dream, and giving a ship's captain his crew (each one on a cannon!) feels nice.
I may try my luck with something like this. I'm replacing the seemingly unlikely to work Vanguard Bannerman with Tianna Crownguard, and since I'm going with an expensive card there, I'll try replacing Lux (don't know that there's enough spells, really) with Katarina.
I had never watched or heard of Byron until I read this, but my heart goes out to all those close to him, and all those ever touched by him. My mother committed suicide barely 3 years ago and the pain continues to ripple across my everyday life; even so, I can only begin to imagine how much this will affect those who knew him. Every story is different.
It's a shameful reflection of some online cultures that online harassment has and continues to have such a dramatic effect, especially on vulnerable individuals who may already be navigating personal, psychological struggles. To anyone in this community who is or has fallen upon the hardest of times, I do hope this is a safe, kind space for you, and that you experience nothing but good nature and high spirits whilst here.
Dude it's just a yoink deck with TF Ezreal this one's from Swim's website, but feel free to go on patting yourself on the back troll. I swear this game has all of 2 sets in it and everyone thinks they are rebel deck builders. This ain't mtg man, there aren't that many possibilities so get over yourself.
So, if someone is still curious - the reason for his suicide can be found here:
1:43-2:55 5:55
So, according to this video it all started with Reckful's recent tweet. He wanted to propose to a girl, people made fun of him, and since he was suffering from a manic-depression, he took those comments very personally. Hence he decided to end his life.
Definitely. Some choices didn't really make sense.
Take Priest for example: back in those days, Anduin's only viable archetypes were Combo (Divine Spirit/Inner Fire) and Resurrect. While Lightbomb was a reasonable inclusion for the latter, Vol'jin made no sense at all.
Reckful was manic-depressive. He wanted to propose to a girl, some people ridiculed him in the comment section of his recent tweets and he felt humiliated and decided to end his life. This explains the quote, which Flux shared with us.
I noticed somebody mentioned it in a reply to a similar question, but that's good to have confirmation. I wonder what the next one will be - hopefully it will be revealed soon!
Please change the headline to exclude mention of how he died. I appreciate that this isn't the usual type of story reported on this site and that this is all coming from a good place, but suicide prevention guidelines are clear about this
My condolences for Reckful's death. It's kinda weird to see him die due to a suicide attempt, because one or two weeks ago I went to his youtube channel and I saw a video, whose title stated, that Reckful was overcoming his depression. I guess, he was feeling relieved only temporarily, but the real problem wasn't solved. RIP.
Good advice! I got into it at the beginning of Ikora's drop. A little off and on play but now I'm normally at least doing my daily. Used to play IRL a decade ago but I'm having more fun on this digital format. Also played a few rounds of their failed digital conversions.
I bought the core mastery, if I keep enjoying the game I'll probably spring for the mastery every expansion to show my support. I did something similar with HS until the whole Hong Kong thing, then I dropped Blizz completely.
You can report it and they actually can check on it, but I have never heard of a legitimate case of broken pity timers that Blizzard didn't actively compensate for. Pity timer has different rules that people forget. You should have gotten one legendary in your first 10 packs. After that it's 40. Every expansion set has it's own timer. You can sort your collection by rarity, lots of times people think they skipped the pity timer but didn't notice they got a card.
Sylvanas Hero Emote Change WTF!!
Yeah, link is right. This is only temporary; you will get your old emote back, once the event finishes.
Btw, if you want to feel better about the "Let it burn" emote, I would suggest watching the following video.
Sylvanas loves setting things on fire. ;)

Hearthstone's Phase 2 of the Roadmap - What To Expect Starting in August 2020 Including Expansion 2 Theories
I just want my format, Explorer, to be a real thing.
It has monthly bans, it self balances/manages, and it really promotes deck building.

Runeterra's Next Balance Patch Will Focus More on Card Nerfs
Some nerfs are needed, burn decks feel a bit too good and Vi/Heimer should have been nerfed already

I didn't say they don't happen... I just said... None of those things are good..
Byron "Reckful" Bernstein Has Passed Away at 31 Due to Suicide
He returned briefly to play some Battlegrounds. Since I only started playing and watching HS in late 2017, I missed a lot of Reckful's career.

Makes sense.
You're going to have a tough time having Vanguard Bannerman proc, though. Of course, you probably won't play him that often...

You wrote yourself Renounce Darkness for Warlock and Lock and Load (although this one made more sense) for Hunter.
Such a shame.

Are you sure all the packs are from ashes?
The pity timer is per pack type.
I have been unlucky as well but I didn't track the pity timer :/

Byron "Reckful" Bernstein Has Passed Away at 31 Due to Suicide
I don't get the context of this quote.. is there any concrete reason why he suicide? (do we know why?)
and does it has to do with mockery? sure you can say that but did he actually suicide due to something HS related?
