I wonder if those event cards can also be used in old adventure missions, since they are going to be added in everyone's collection, or if they can be discoverable through Discover effects like Brightwing's in standard.
I only have 4 golden heroes, so this month i decided to work on the other 5 by winning at least 1 game a day with each of them. Felt good about how close i was getting.
I think a good solution is to change the way ranks 50-26 work so that you are able to lose stars, but as to not discourage players you would do what they do with the silver ranks in Magic: Arena and make one win=2 stars and a lose=1 star so that you can have a perfect 50% winrate and still climb, and even if your winrate is slightly negetive you can still climb. but this would also give you more time to adapt to the game and get a stronger collection.
That sounds like a good change. How do you send it to Blizzard?
I just realised the new portraits keep their character posture from their original, I was wondering what felt kinda odd about Anduin. A lot of them are flipped, keeps it feeling new but familar. Really love these and looking forward to seeing their golden animations, Jainas' look's like its going to be awesome.
Well i personaly know some people who have golden portraits simply because they play the game very often but still not that good at the game and therefor between rank 20-15 !
I think the ranking system is fine (sure some improvements would not be bad) but it is still managable - and for example if you're a good player with a decent cardpool you can always rank up. Kripp for example does not play standard very often so if he starts a standard legend run he often times begins at rank 20 and still makes it.
But as i said - there still could be some improvements but overall it`s fine.
Well i guess there surely can be some sort Deathrattle Shenanigans with him - even without other Wild Cards - Mecha' Thun for example ... or maybe the Rogue Legendary Anka could be playable as soon as this comes to the Standard Meta!
Ragnaros could bring somekind of Big/Rezz Priest back in the Meta - sure Wall/Rezz Priest is still there but i think with the addition of Rag this could gain popularity !
Actually, the Khartut Defender is a Wild thing already, for many players who choose Renolock.
Not staple in that deck, but fairly common.
So i daresay it can easily become a staple in Standard, for any deck trying to be Midrange or Control.
About Warlock, and in general any deck, i guess a lot depends on it being able to actually survive for 10 turns. And surely Khartut helps there. But how much?
In other words, it's not just what N'zoth himself can do, but more what the deck can do before him.
Finally, for all those already dreaming of the return of the Wall of the Dead, don't forget Priest could use Mass Dispel, while being a Combo deck already...
PS: considering DR, and adding some extra tokens, Plague of Flames could finally shine for Standard Warlock.
Just wondering the implications of this, [Hearthstone Card (karthut defender) Not Found] is one of the most synergistic cards ever with N'zoth sure in wild it's not a thing cause wild have much better comboes.
I am not that great of a deck builder any crazy decks you can make with N'zoth in standard?
My first instinct is quest warlock since the deck runs a lot of deathrattle taunts and N'zoth would ressurect them all to make a really strong swing turn.
sure there are 21 other cards we don't know about but let's theoricraft a bit before the 4th of october.
Anyone else experiencing the same problem? I'm opening hs, it has just the tavern in the background glowing, after 10+ minutes still the same. At downdetector possible battle net problems, with some reports on hs problems. Europe server
it doesn't matter what it does in Wild, what matters is that it's currently one of the best decks in Standard and you can't just give it a huge buff like that for no reason.
Bah, I am still salty about my lost Arena wins ;) Well, I play almost only Arena and still am some way before the 500 win ones but it's great that new ones are coming. Another 5 years and maybe I will get them :P
Maybe you guys could put up a sticky about it? I'm sure I'm not the only one who assumed their post got moderated or failed to post due to connection issues or w/e. Furthermore from what Flux said it sounds like having these false positives reported will also help the spam filter learn to behave properly.
I wonder if this might tie into the ongoing storyline in Retail WOW in some way, much like Rastakhan's Rumble was clearly inspired by the happenings in Zandalar last year. NZoth is clearly a massive deal right now in wow, and while 8.3 isn't scheduled until January (probably), I'd love to see more expansions in Hearthstone that are connected to wow. even tangentially. It'd be pretty great if the expansion/ 8.3 patch announcements at Blizzcon revealed common characters/ themes in both games. Hearthstone drew me to WOW rather than the other way around, and even though they dropped the "heroes of Warcraft" from the name I'd love to see linked expansions happen. The league of explorers are in mechagon at the moment and the recruit a friend stuff is clearly inspired by hs, so im guessing that further small integrations are in the pipeline
I remember hearing that Hearthstone's next expansion might be themed around dragons (fingers crossed), which also ties in with speculation about a Dragon Isle zone coming to Retail in the future.
Your posts were accidentally automatically marked as spam, sto. If you want to go ahead and delete whichever ones you don't want, please do!
If this happens again and your post doesn't appear, please let us know about it before posting again with similar content so you system doesn't incorrectly flag more of it. Overtime the system learns what is and isn't spam, it's just so new without a large database of "good" and "bad" that we have these silly cases.
Ideally we'd let you know if something gets marked as spam so you can let us know about faster, that'll have to be something we add into notifications.
Sorry for the trouble.
(It might not like lots of quick edits though since its lots of repetitive content, we have seen some of that. Will need to be tuned a bit better towards it most likely)
Has this been going on for a longer time? I recall having had a post or two of mine disappear but it's been a while

The Dragonlander 2.0
Will try it, too. I have a sentiment for dragons in HS and still sad they seems to have forgotten about them.

Ignore User feature?
Hey there Flux and Admins,
I'm curious if you have plans to add the ability to ignore a user at some point in the future. Thanks for any info you can share!

That's a hard one, mainly because the wild meta us so unable; the secret mage is the only powerhouse so far
