Untapped Potential: Completion Requirement increased by 1 to 5 - Honestly, this is less about balance, and more about making the match up less damn boring. I'm not saying it's OP, but this change might force decks running it to look at a different strategy than just "don't do anything for 4 turns".
Other than SoU cards:
Conjurer's Calling - Cost changed to (5). - Is this a brutal nerf? Kind of, but I've been playing around with an Even mage in wild, and this is not a card you want to give it access to.
Dr. Boom, Mad Genius - Hero Power is now Big Red Button - Press a button. - Keep everything, but blind the Hero Power, so you have no idea which one you get when you hit the button. Unlikely to be implemented because of new players, but thematic, and a nerf at the same time. This would necessitate the "deal 3 damage HP to be a random target, but I can live with that.
For the sake of Wild:
Eternal Servitude: - Changed to 0 Mana - Discover a minion that died this game. Spend mana equal to its cost and summon it. (Attempting to cast this when you can't afford any minions in the pool will fizzle, like Shadow Visions if you have no spells in your deck)
Not even salt, but I'm not creating a whole new topic for it. Since when is saying Well Played at the end of the game considered BM? I just had an opponent concede after activating a rat trap, with me not even close to winning. I generally close out games with a Well Played emote, occasionally refraining if it's a deck I really don't like (generally reserved for Big Priest). After the game, my opponent added me, kindly informing me I was a sheep, and I would never make legend, and I won through luck. I'm not entirely sure what luck he was referring too, as there was no RNG factor in him conceding that I recall.
Imo this is how arena should have worked originally. Arena should be modeled after physical card game tournies' blind pack drafts, not some artificially manipulated drafting format.
At 5, this is surely the ultimate Reno deck, though I had to make some substitutes due to budget constraints. Hopefully, I will get some dust back when the inevitable nerf to Luna's Pocket Galaxy comes along :)
Really love the extra-value game from Brann/Zola/Kazakus/Zephrys.
I went to college for game design. Ended up working as a technical artist in the industry for 7 years. Got out of the industry because I have a family and I wasn't willing to pull the insane hours. Work in IT now and I am much happier. I really miss the industry though at times. Working on games was so much fun. I did a lot of scripting, modeling, texturing, level design, layout etc.
First of all, the notification system is in its very basic form and we do not go back and manually monitor every single thread we respond to, i know i dont. We wouldnt have time to do anything else.
Second, i agree that ppl shouldnt mass downvote you, or anyone, just cause. That being said, you did bring this on yourself, encouraging it even. You cant honestly be surprised you get what you asked for.
Thirdly, yes, we know you very well. I know you very well. And i dont feed your BS ego if i dont have to, but i guess this post will do just that. I fully understand that ppl like you are part of the community and to some extent are even good for the forum, but only in small doses.
Ever since you came here and your activity increased you started the good old subtle trolling routine you always do. You try to "gently" poke wherever you can and appear as that your intentions are pure and you don't mean nothing by what you write, but in fact you know very well what you are doing. You learned to walk the thin line of being troll-y just enough to start flame wars, but (usually) not enough that it would warrant a warning. You probably got like 1/3rd of warnings you should have gotten on hpwn, but we didnt want to feed your ego and give you even more wood for the fire "oh look, i cant say anything, the mods are banning me for everything hur dur". And then you come out and play a victim, when what you started comes back to bite you. How unexpected.
Obviously, i dont agree with, nor promote, "bullying" in any form of any one member of our community, wheter it might be waranted or not. You are not without a blame in all this and as Flux said, we are not going to ban multiple members just cause they did what you wanted them to. With that said, i would like to ask anyone reading this to not feed Sherman's ego by giving him more downvotes. You stop a troll by ignoring him, that is the best tactic.
Sherman, no one but you has this problem. Why? Because they are not going out of their way to create one. I know that what i wrote will just be ignored or laughed at by you, i expect as much, but my naive self think that maybe calling you out might flip a switch in you or something and have you stop and think about yourself for a second and how you behave and why are these things happening to you over and over. /rant end
Ok, sinti, if my case is really unique and is due to my unconventional behaviour in the forums, I take the responsability. I just don't want it to happen to anyone else, that is all. Why? Because I love the community, I love people in general and I'm not a piece of shit as some believe (and no, I'm not talking about you). Of course, thanks for the reply, and sorry for the riots.
I just beat a deck that looks exactly like this list with Control Priest. They made a few budget differences though. Just one question though: Aren't you worried that it's a little too back heavy? Aggro looks like it rips through this deck.
If you’re wondering how the bucket system worked, basically the current system placed every card into various groups (called buckets) based off of generally how good they were. That’s why usually when you get offered a good card in arena, you’ll have a choice between 3 good cards, and the same with bad cards as well
You don't get to be a troll, whine about getting downvoted, and then blame the mods in the same sentence.
You reap what you sow.
That's so funny comming from you, LOL. And no, I'm not a troll and I don't know why Flux said that, many people here and in Hearthpwn know that's not true, they know me very well. I'm probably one of the most friendly persons you can find on this community, a community I love, but still full of people throwing shit to each other all the time.

Honestly, Sherman, you're a unique case for us. You've made a career in the Hearthstone community out of trolling everyone. Because of this, it is hard to do anything about it because I'm certainly not going to ban dozens of people that actually behave.
People get tired of the nonsense, including us, and it's not something we want to promote here.
I really didn't expect a reply from you that fast, Flux, so thanks for that!!! :) But with all respect, how is considered downvoting every single post of someone for no reason other than disliking the person good behaviour?

Solid cardback for Shaman. I like it.

....are control players the salty ones?

Now when he says, "have all cards be part of one giant pool" does he mean "ALL" cards, or all cards in the current arena meta?
The Forgotten Wilds of Hearthstone - Crawlies, Robots, and Brothers
Great idea for an article, Esparanta! Made me want to try out Call Pet.
Almost all my wild decks involve how to cheat out multiple Thaddius; With the most recent being slotting them into my wild Plot Twist deck.

Do we get back greater rewards to go with the incoming s*** show of god drafts and laugh drafts?
A Weekend of Wild Decks
Can't believe one of my decks is actually here! And it's even the first one listed :)
The Forgotten Wilds of Hearthstone - Crawlies, Robots, and Brothers
Ha, I used to love playing these guys, trying to double the Thaddius with Baron Rivendare, and Enhance-o Mechano was just awesome. Call Pet invariably pulled something like Hunter's Mark, though :P
Might have to throw that Priest deck together for some fun nostalgia.

Really love the extra-value game from Brann/Zola/Kazakus/Zephrys.

Ah, that explains my problem. I was trying to make a card that summoned 6 Silver Hand Recruits, plural. Good to have the workaround!

If you complain about downvotes, I downvote. The irony is funny and this is not the kind of content I want to see.
