Anyone who says these bundles aren't too expensive is wrong.
80 dollars + tax nearly 90 dollars for the path of arthus mega bundle, it should be included in the 50 dollar bundle as well.
So we are expected to buy a 50 or 80 dollar bundle + tax every 4 months, a 20 dollar mini expansion and 20 dollar battle pass every 4 months as well, while they will also be selling 30 dollar skins
All this money but they market the game towards children who will get upset that their parents won't spend 500 dollars a year on hearthstone expansions.
and they're talking about adding a 4th expansion into the cycle? This is absolutely ridiculous.
It's been a long while since the last time I posted here: not because I gave up on the grind, but rather because I had never found the right occasion to take a screenshot and upload it here!
With this being said, I made HUGE progresses, to the pointe where I only miss two classes before having all 1k skins.
To be more precise, Warrior and Warlock are the last ones, with both missing around 200 wins.
However, I think they will have to wait a little longer, since starting from December 6th I will flood ladder with Death Knight!
The wild Priest deck works wonders. Done the achievment on first try against Imp Curse warlock, and even won the game after exhausting the opponent with them playing all their curses (9 damage with the last one) and them playing a 27 damage Denathrius. Thank you.
2 Mana Emperor Thaurissan on a deathrattle? (But only affects deathrattle minions) Well alright 5 star card right there. Even if it isn't broken immediately, it will be on a timer. And when that timer hits 0 (When it gets more support) it will become a must-include.
Not sure about this card, but i think it might see play in a bunch of priest decks. Shadow priest can use this as a reload after their board gets cleared, and maybe control priest decks include this in order to ress a big undead? Probably sees play, but won't be the best thing ever.
5 Star card for only 1 reason: "Draw 2 cards" in priest. And the undead thing is very easy for priests, because priests have a LOT of undead minions. Must-include in all priest decks.
Pretty good card. Bit slow as a 3/3 at first, but if this doesn't get silenced it will be very diffucult to remove. Sticky/annoying minions like these have often seen play, so i think this one will as well.
Seems pretty good. Buffing spells in your deck is pretty good, because of you have any in hand you probably want to play them and Halduron Brightwing makes it so drawing the arcane spells feels a lot better. Of course the problem with this card is that it's a legendary, so drawing it might be difficult.
Seems really good later into the game because it can allow you to refill your hand. This also seems nuts in questline Hunter. Before quest completion it's just quest progression, but after questline it allows for a lot more burst damage thanks to the draw. Really solid.
Overall, I think most* of these gameplay achievements are easier than previous expansions. The only RNG related 1 is Cheese Touch and it shouldn't be that difficult to complete seeing as Sire Denathrius will probably still be a menace
Okay, so I watched the theorycraft stream, and here's my initial impressions;
Show Spoiler
Concoctions works differently than I thoughts. Turns out the the potions mixed together not on play but on receiving them, making them substantially better. If this works, then Potionmaster Putricide can turn out a lot of value. Meaning my initial review of this card is completely invalid. But as for whether the archetype will work? I think its best in jackpot rogue. Miracle really doesn't need it, at least in my view.
Paladin is good, aggro druid is shit, arcane mage may actually need to be nerfed its basically mozaki mage, shaman is shit, frost DK is completely and utterly broken, blood DK can and will destroy any aggro deck, warlock is janky.
But hunter. Turns out that the arcane build may not actually be shit. In fact, Shockspitter may actually need to be nerfed to 3 because it looks broken as hell. You can easily win by turn 6, and with brann there's really no upper limit as to how much damage this thing can do in a game. Conjured Arrow is one hell of a card.
DK is going to rule the roost week 1, I really hope team5 implements a way to tell the runes slotted because you'll never know what DK youre facing and they can be so polarizing in strat that a wrong mulligan can ruin you.
Everyone is doing giveaways on their Twitter/YouTube/Twitch etc. pretty much every season now and sometimes in between, so that stopped being news per se (plus impossible to keep track of hundreds). Plus their timing varies greatly. And good point there!
I mean, since you already included Finley, I may as way be a pedant and say that Pave the Way also upgrades your hero power as the second step reward for Paladin Questline, making it 4 cards that upgrade your hero power
I believe there were indeed a lot of players who expected to be able to play with Demon Hunter as soon as they unlocked it via Prologue (that's only logical from their perspective, isn't it), with in-game UI sort of supporting this expectation as well. Rather than for some weird reason having to wait until that's become possible later.
So, apparently we absolutely got the first part right with the introduction of the latest Death Knight class. However, the second part of getting a new tier of either 1500 or 2000 wins per class, not so much. At least, I did not find any evidence to support this assumed feature in the 25.0 patch just yet.
I guess grinding the new DK class to 500 and 1000 wins will be my main objectives starting December 6th.
How are y'all progressing lately? 👀
Anyways, here are my current stats:
By the way, I think the new class progress overview would look much better by using a slightly different alignment.

I played about 1,5 hours of Secret Mage in Wild and allready got nearly half of the achievement.
I think this is the easiest way to get this "just by playing a normal deck".
Blizzard/Activsion are ridiculous with these bundle prices.

New Rogue Minion - Noxious Infiltrator
Easy to trigger condition and it kills any non-divine shield minion. Will see a lot of play.
New Rogue Minion - Rotten Rodent
2 Mana Emperor Thaurissan on a deathrattle? (But only affects deathrattle minions) Well alright 5 star card right there. Even if it isn't broken immediately, it will be on a timer. And when that timer hits 0 (When it gets more support) it will become a must-include.
New Priest Minion - Sister Svalna
Okay after seeing the theorycrafting, this is a 5 star card. This + Radiant Elementals and Psyfiend looks like a very good OTK.
New Priest Minion - High Cultist Basaleph
Not sure about this card, but i think it might see play in a bunch of priest decks. Shadow priest can use this as a reload after their board gets cleared, and maybe control priest decks include this in order to ress a big undead? Probably sees play, but won't be the best thing ever.

5 Star card for only 1 reason: "Draw 2 cards" in priest. And the undead thing is very easy for priests, because priests have a LOT of undead minions. Must-include in all priest decks.
New Priest Minion - Haunting Nightmare
Pretty good card. Bit slow as a 3/3 at first, but if this doesn't get silenced it will be very diffucult to remove. Sticky/annoying minions like these have often seen play, so i think this one will as well.
New Hunter Minion - Halduron Brightwing
Seems pretty good. Buffing spells in your deck is pretty good, because of you have any in hand you probably want to play them and Halduron Brightwing makes it so drawing the arcane spells feels a lot better. Of course the problem with this card is that it's a legendary, so drawing it might be difficult.
New Hunter Spell - Eversong Portal
Seems really good as long as you can get 1! spell-damage boost onto this. And even without spell-damage boosts it can be alright. This will see play.
New Hunter Spell - Conjured Arrow
Seems really good later into the game because it can allow you to refill your hand. This also seems nuts in questline Hunter. Before quest completion it's just quest progression, but after questline it allows for a lot more burst damage thanks to the draw. Really solid.
New Hunter Minion - Silvermoon Farstrider
This seems pretty good. You can pump up your Eversong Portal before turn 4 (if its in hand) and also buff some other arcane spells. Seems good.
New Hunter Spell - Ricochet Shot
Seems good with the spell-damage package and in questline hunter. Will see play.
