Cool book for collectors/fans :)

Wonder if it will show the design process for the maybe/maybe not China related art nerfs :P

Pretty neat

The work put into this is incredible... great job!  I think it may be a bit overpowered (even given the weaknesses, this class could snowball like nobody's business easily), but the concepts, the artwork, and the incredible detail given to the card mechanics is awe-inspiring!

For the love of God get this off the front page XD

Interested. Can you describe the combo? Says video is uploading but nothing has uploaded in the last 15 hours. Maybe you could just write out the combo in the description? Anyways, thanks for sharing the deck

I did notice the portraits within the Arena now display a Halloween theme (which I didn't see before), as well as the CPU home screen has a theme as well (including the aforementioned candy corn... not a fan either of the candy, but the screen looks nice).  I only about 800 wins away from the 1k on my closest class (I jump around a bit), so I didn't experience any issues or resolutions there :)

I think the deck struggles against decks that can go wide in early game-. You are depending too much on RNG from the cards you generate (or discover). 

But i liked the Maly idea, especially since nobody is expecting it.

Therefore I took the Tempo Rogue deck swapped some cards to add the OTK combo cards that were missing. 

I think its the sweet spot, bc you dont need all of them for a finisher, since the Tempo Deck already puts your opponent below a certain health level. 
Thx for the idea! 

PS: If my version is successful, I will post it here.

I would rather play against a degenerate evolve shaman than a degenerate resurrect priest every day of the week.

The version of highlander hunter I meant was the version that cuts the secret package. That version has been the worse of the two for about 2 weeks now.

Quote From Zwane

The mana cheat king of the moment. I remember a certain mage nerf to counter those mana cheated boards, which required you to do nothing for 4 turns. Shaman can play anything he wants and then cheat out 3 4-mana minions for 4 mana on turn 3/4, and then evolve it a turn later to get even more value at turn 5. It will be the only deck I play until they nerf it to hell. Sorry mage.

People are comparing Evolve Shaman to Combo Priest, but I really don't see the similarities. First off, Combo Priest is the most board-centric deck in the game right now, so that facotr can be exploited. If you can keep the board clear for the early turns, you can solidify your game plan and snowball your lead. Beause Combo Priest doesn't have any cards that directly impact the board (aside from [Hearthstone Card (Wild Pryomancer) Not Found], but it's moreso used to gain a larger lead when the Priest is ahead), they can be shut down if you remove their minions turn after turn. However, if the Priest highrolls into Injured Tol'vir + Circle of Healing Turn 1, unless you have exactly Backstab + Eviscerate, you've probably lose the game.

On the other hand, Evolve Shaman has a completely different gameplan. They seek to do multiple things: one, they can create a massive board spontaeneously via Desert Hare + Evolve, or they can abuse the understatted battlecry minions when running Corrupt the Waters. Evolve Shaman is so much more consistently powerful compared to Combo Priest; even if they don't hit their turn 4 Evolve combo, they still have good enough cards to win through tempo. No class can deal with four 4 drops on turn four, nonetheless an 8 drop before turn 8 with Mogu Fleshshaper. This is closer to Conjurer Mage, where once the deck gets it's combo off, it's basically unstoppable.

200? He opens around 800! At least he did before he pressed the button. I don’t watch those card openings anymore so idk if that’s still accurate. 

I honestly would do the same in his position. HS is 80-90% of his life for years now and his full time Job at the same time. Seems not that awefull to invest 2-3k/year into your ow business.

I suppose it makes sense that buying hundreds of packs is not too dissimilar to investing in your self-employed company. And I threw a random number when I said 200, I just know that he buys both bundles every expansion, plus several hundred more packs as well. And besides, pack opening is something that (for some reason) draws lots and lots of attention, probably from people that are excited for the new expansion and want to see the new cards, but can't wait to get back to their device and open their own packs. Being a relativel new F2P player, I can at most afford around 40 packs per expansion, which usually guarantees me 2 legendaries plus 1 free one from the release of the expansion. Depsite opening so many packs on my own, I can't resist watching people bust open hundreds of packs and say stuff like "ohh, I got (insert legendary card name). That's pretty good, I'll make a deck out of that". 

There are so many unexplored paths for Hearthstone to delve into, not just in creating new and unique ideas, but to build upon concepts that are already in the game. This is what makes me excited as a player, since realising this Untapped Potential reveals that there is still vast amounts of room for development in the game. Even now, we are seeing unique mechanics, some of which have been dabbled upon by the custom card community, being made into real cards. Honestly, as much as we all through bullshit at the developers for broken combos, unbalanced cards and un-fun experiences (and sometimes political issues), Hearthstone is genuinely one of the most fun games I have played.

That is awesome!

r/nextfuckinglevel for sure. Why isn't there s pandaria expansion?

I would definitely play this class!

New patch came today on Android (15.4.35057 according to Google Play), I can't find any details about it, but I hope that it fixes the issue.
