If you already drew with Wondrous Wand and made 3 cards 0 cost, and your opponent then plays Boompistol Bully, your 0 cost battlecry cards will now cost 5.
However, if you play Boompistol Bully and then they play Wondrous Wand, those cards that would have cost 5 more becomes 0.
If I'm not mistaken, the effect of both cards are based solely on when they are played. So at the time of playing, bully turns 0 cost into 5, while wand turns 5+ into 0.
Thank god, I was dreading the day I might see an april fool's post and mistake it for real information. I am truly grateful for the burden that his been lifted off my shoulders.
It could have been done, in a clever way with good taste and class... But since I have no idea myself about how it could have been done exactly, I certainly won't blame you for not trying.
Does this mean you would prefer the community here not to post links to other April 1 content? I have not problem either way, just looking for clarification.
this a probably one of hunters best cards the buff cards like the rotated Dire Frenzy and new cards like Scrap Shot can turn zixor into a op force of nature and the card gets even more insane in wild because of Dire Frenzy and Augmented Elekk
Your multiplier at the start of a month is one less than the number of ranked floor you reached the previous month. That means that reaching Legend only guarantees a 10x multiplier. The maximum possible is still 11, but that’s because if your MMR is high enough you’ll get a bonus. (The MMR details are not published, as far as I know.)
Also, my understanding is that once your multiplier goes away, you are matched against people at a similar rank rather than a similar MMR.
This has some subtle but important ramifications. As long as you have a bonus multiplier, you can expect to win about half your games regardless of rank, so you’ll progress. But before you reach the heights you reached last month, your multiplier goes away and you have to fight people who also made it to your rank. That guarantees that each rank represents a certain skill, and you can only maintain (or increase) your rank month-to-month if you’re able to stand up to other people of that rank.
Assuming you're on EU? I assumed it would likely be broken for a day or two at launch so I guess no surprise! Can't wait for 2 am my time when the ol' NA servers roll over!
Wouldn’t be surprised if this got nerfed at some point, autoinclude in any aggressive decks since most of the time taunts are how a slow deck stalls for time
Seems pretty strong. I will say I’m a bit worried about Vulpera Scoundrel in Demon Hunter for the time being, since they have so few spells that this could be offered relatively often.
I’m gonna take a guess and say that this is a reference to the tutorial card that ended up not making it in? This seems like something that would be considered “pretty crazy” back then
I was under the impression that Blizzard had patched the interaction between Boompistol Bully and Galakrond, but I was playing on mobile, and my opponent drew with Togwaggle's wand, got Galakrond, and drew 4 cards… all for 3 mana, did I misunderstand the patch, or is that a bug? Has it happened to anyone else after the latest patch?
Somewhere out there, a single tear slowly made its way down Sen'jin Shieldmasta's cheek as he reflected upon the time he stopped 4 aggro minions during a single championship match.
Boompistol Bully Interaction
I think the interaction is:
If you already drew with Wondrous Wand and made 3 cards 0 cost, and your opponent then plays Boompistol Bully, your 0 cost battlecry cards will now cost 5.
However, if you play Boompistol Bully and then they play Wondrous Wand, those cards that would have cost 5 more becomes 0.

A couple important corrections:
Your multiplier at the start of a month is one less than the number of ranked floor you reached the previous month. That means that reaching Legend only guarantees a 10x multiplier.

I want the entire Demon Hunter set asap.
New Demon Hunter Minion - Ashtongue Battlelord
i dont know if this will be extremly viable its just Queen of Pain but with taunt but heals is still important for any class
New Demon Hunter Spell - Metamorphosis

New Demon Hunter Minion - Fel Summoner
this doesnt seem like a viable card for dh even with the strong demons like Coilfang Warlord
New Shaman Spell - Serpentshrine Portal
this is a really good cards the overload is very minimal for this card just because of this effect
New Demon Hunter Minion - Fel Summoner
So not worth it. Won't be played

Aaand what a surprise, it's completely broken. Can't lose stars even if you're not on a rank floor.
Valve Announces Artifact Beta 2.0 - No Purchasable Packs or Cards, No Word on Old Cards
hmmm I guess I took the statement "We aren’t selling cards" and ran with it assuming the best case scenario....
New Rogue Minion - Blackjack Stunner
Sap on a twig ^^
New Warrior Minion - Bonechewer Raider
Hahahaha that's fair! ;
New Demon Hunter Spell - Blade Dance
Very strong removal option. With DH's weapons and attack buffing spells, this has some serious board clear potential.

Now I wonder what corresponds to old rank 5 in terms of effort/reward ratio...
Is it possibly diamond 10?
I also hope the grind won't take longer overall.
New Shaman Minion - Lady Vashj
Draw a few Lava Bursts or Serpentshrine Portals and this could be a BIG burst.
