  • Blizzard Removes Blitzchung From Grandmasters, Prize Money Taken Away For Anti-China Comments

    Imagine being a Hong Kong HS player who played the game for 5 years and spent $1000 on it. Just imagine. This is so disgusting.

    Not again ... lol. Havent played any token spawners yet, so dunno if it covers everything or this card only. Might be a problem with Basic set being gone and shaman HP tokens being flagged as basic set or something, tho it should at least summon Totem Golem if nothing else.

    It was nerfed September 2016 to be "Summon a basic totem", so Totem Golem would not be in the pool.  Only the four basic totems from hero power.

    Which is weird... if you play with Shaman hero power right now does it not summon a totem either?  What about SHR with Paladin?

    I can confirm that silver hand recruits do work and will get summoned via hero power and by other means.

    Still not on iphone.  Why do patches like this take longer but expansions are good to go at same time as everyone else?  Frustrating, want to play some duel class arena.

  • New old cards in standard Hearthstone

    Yea, old cards are special ones. They even have special tab under standard/wild tabs.

    Yeah, it seems like they deactivated your cards in the collection manager, only the event copies are shown now. I had few golden legendaries for example, im "forced" to play regular versions. Haha, not a big deal, but kinda silly.

    Greetings,

    A couple things I want to mention that I have not seen brought up here (but I easily could have missed it/them) and some that have. Do I think Blitzchung is a hero and what he did was fantastic. I do - very much. But, he also has said he KNEW he was going to get banned. He knew it was against the rules (so the whole, it wasn't against the rules argument is invalid). The casters also knew what they were doing. That makes their action that much more noble.

    Should Blizz have done what they did. Absolutely. E sports is not a forum for politics. As noble as their actions was, it is still politics. I don't play HS for politics. When streamers start bringing it up, I change. Blizz is also accountable to shareholders. Some of these shareholders are average people saving for their retirement. To punish them for someone else actions (while we happen to see is noble) would not be appropriate for Blizz.

     

    And the big point I want to bring up. First, remember we get after Blizz all the time for their lack of communication and lack of explanation when they do communicate. However, this time, they communicated quickly AND loudly AND clearly. Did the we like what they said No. BUT the fact is, we are talking bout it. The WORLD is talking about it. The media is picking it up. The more mainstream media is picking it up. If Blizz just did what Blizz usually does would their be this much attention and talking about it? I don't think so.

    I think that Blizz knows they are doing on the media front. I think Blizz what is hard place. I think they used their media power is such a way that China could not make repercussions about it. Yea, at the same time, they have exploded this story world wide. Sure, Reddit was all over this. But I don't think it would have been picked up and carried like it has.

    Since Blizz has made their very public statement, China can't ignore it. They can't wipe it under the proverbial carpet. Anyone who follows Blizzard but not HS will now hear bout this.

    This, I feel, was a very strategic move by Blizzard. This very forum is helping to prove that. Be as pissed as you want at Blizzard, but the fact is - their actions have done more for Hong Kong than doing nothing at all.

    TL:DR;

    I think Blizz's move was genius. I think Blizz coming out like this has done more to SUPPORT Hong Kong than if they had done their usual and just been quiet. This story is now world wide and would not have been if BLIZZ had remaind quiet on it. China can no longer ignore this story.

    You are only emphasising the importance of politics in non-political forms of media. Blizzard gets direct monetary support of their decisions from people who are and aren't interested in politics, just as people in China are impacted by human rights violations whether or not they care about politics. It's not like Blizzard hushed someone because they said anything at all relating to politics. They did it solely because China lines their pockets.

    "They [Blizzard] did it solely because China lines their pockets." Could you please point me to any evidence of this. You state it as fact, so you must have clear evidence of it. Otherwise that would only be you opinion or your feeling about the situation.

    If you did, indeed, mis-speak. Could you still point me to any evidence or facts that led to such a position? I mean, other than "they are a corporation, so therefore they must be evil".

    Of course I am emphasizing the importance of bringing up the Hong Kong situation in non-politcal forms of media. That is a large part of my point. What Blizzard did has brought it to MANY more people than would have know about it. Those that don't frequent political media. Another point for Blizzard!

    Maybe not "very soon". Been a lot of changes with the client and we're working to figure out a solution to get the new cards rendered.

    You can see all the new cards added in today's patch here:

    Just keep in mind, no images yet!

    When the event ends, your old cards will return.

  • Blizzard Removes Blitzchung From Grandmasters, Prize Money Taken Away For Anti-China Comments

    To people saying he broke the rules because there is no place for politics on the tournament, well usually you get a warning or you have to sit your next match, you dont get utterly baned and destroyed.

  • New old cards in standard Hearthstone

    I wonder if anyone knows.
    I play the game since 2015 and have many of the old cards that were reintroduced to the game.
    I don't mind other people having the same cards  but i don't see a second for example [Hearthstone Card (Sylvannas Windrunner) Not Found] for the card i had.
    I see now only one Sylvannas which i cannot discenchant...
    When this event ends and if they decide to take back the cards will i still have the original cards in my collection?

    Does anyone know?

  • Tuskarr Totemic in arena

    So I drafted a Tuskarr Totemic as warrior+shaman in the arena, but when played his battlecry didn't trigger so you might want to be careful while drafting. Or might have just been a bug who knows
