  • Saviors of Uldum

    great information and I am excited for some new action! Keep up the great work here at Out Of Cards! 

  • Site Achievements

    New feature: Every achievement is hidden and the only way to keep track of them is by a handwritten log. Good luck!

  • Some suggestions for improving deck guides and deck pages overall

    Big thanks for the info; I will gladly follow those tips.

  • Do you think Linecracker (or overkill) deserves a nerf?

    The win condition is "I can never die because even 20 turns of attacking with a full board won't kill be and Jade Idol keeps me from fatigue so you'll die from fatigue eventually"

  • Mogu Cultist

    Maybe the new lackey is one that becomes a 1/1 copy of an existing minion - and that would help this happen?

    I like this card and the concept of having a puzzle in the game

  • Some suggestions for improving deck guides and deck pages overall

    Definitely good suggestions. A few of these things are on the to do list already like tweaking available font sizes and a 'remove formatting' button (i really want to see that myself). Of course spoilers are a must as well.

    I think a button for quote blocks will be handy, though you can still type out bbcode to do this for now: [quote] [/quote]  will do the trick, but don't bold the text like i did because that breaks it currently and i did it as an example. Perhaps it can be styled in the editor as well.

    There is a way to do some of this already if you can use html. Editing the source code through the <> button allows more freedom as essentialy the buttons are just shortcuts to put the source code in for you, and it is rendered to be more understandable in the editor. I'll give a couple examples:


    To change the font size of text in the source code you can add <span style="font-size: 23pt;"> before the text in question and follow it with a closing tag </span>.  The number can be changed as you see fit, this is the pt size of the text. Not sure if there are any limits imposed on this, but realistically the menu just provides preset values.

    We also need that format clearing button to make it easy to revert to default as you said. Currently if you need to change the font size back to default you simply have to delete the span tags seen above or change it to 11pt.


    For custom tooltips you can use the markup directly in the source code. The [Hearthstone Card (tags basically just tell the site what markup to generate to show the tooltip requested and is a simple and easy way to generate the same result. You can see the markup of things by right clicking them and choosing inspect element. Here us what a card tooltip looks like in html:

    <a class="card-tooltip set-rastakhans-rumble rarity-legendary hscls-druid" href="/hearthstone/cards/4888-wardruid-loti">Wardruid Loti</a>

    As you can see it follows a pattern of parameters. You can copy and paste this into source code and modify as needed. Rarity controls the colour of the tooltip, and href is the link pointing to the card page on the site. The text between the <a></a> tags is the actual text displayed for the tooltip, and can be whatever you want. So the code for your example would be this:

    <a class="card-tooltip rarity-common" href="/hearthstone/cards/4069-flamewreathed-faceless">4 mana 7/7</a>

    And when you put it in the source code:

    4 mana 7/7

    I think it may be possible to make a shortcut for this in the future as well, however i cant promise when that would happen. Hopefully that at least gives you some insight in case you wish to do stuff like that for the time being. 


    Your idea for pinning comments on your own decks is an interesting one and may be worth considering as an enhancement. Your feedback is very much appreciated so thanks for sharing 😄

    So much content! Wowzer !!

    Preparation died for this. Kappa.

    Think we are missing a bit on Nemsy Necrofizzle & Mecha-Jaraxxus here :)

  • Uldum Rogue Card Reveals - Hooked Scimitar & Whirlkick Master

    Combo card pool is small enough to make Whirlkick Master a genuine threat, but stats are underwhelming. Bad tempo play on turn 2. From my experience playing with Underbelly Fence, which also requires activation, rogue has a lot of matchups where you'd prefer a tempo play on 2 to equipping a weapon. Not sure if this makes the cut. 

  • The Grand Tournament

    The card from this set that still gives me PTSD, you ask?
    ... None of your business..!
    Is my comment too cryptic or just ... mysterious enough? ^^

  • Uldum Rogue Legendary Minion Reveal - Anka, the Buried

    Maybe, but if you draw all your combo pieces and Myra your deck, that's an 8 mana 6/6 minion you'll have to remove. I tried to keep as many cards under 3 mana so Hemet can blast as much of your deck as possible. 

    It will definitely require some testing, and Jepetto is absolutely on my list of cards to test!

    Quote From kaladin
    Quote From sicknantos

    I think it's a meme and as such until we see how viable that meme is (and given the power levels of aggro at the moment, might not be very viable at all) we shouldn't worry too much about it. It requires all cards in the combo to work.

    In wild particularly this concept loses pretty ard to even shaman and odd paladin alone, let alone the many other hyper aggressive decks.

    When I first saw this I thought "That shouldn't exist at all," and I still think that, but now I'm not concerned about it ruining the meta, just catching me off guard the 1-2 times it can even happen in the first month of SoU coming out.

    On the flip side, Druid has a lot of ways to gain a crazy amount of armor in Wild.  This is both a 'win more' condition and also an 'always win in fatigue' condition.  They've allowed two turn "win now or else you lose the game to your opponent's combo" things to exist in Wild and totally dodge nerfs, so probably this will too, even though it's really unfair and should be nerfed.

    I totally agree. I think regardless of its impact, this shouldn't get a free pass. Blizzard is still allowing things like this because "well it's unlikely" or "there are counters" as if that justifies bad interactions like this on

    This expansion brought us 2 major cards : Mal'Ganis, the eternal/turtle and Dr. 7 ..!

  • New Rogue Minion - Whirlkick Master

    Quote From Malkav

    Just compare it with Underbelly Angler and you see how underpowered it is.

    Or how overpowered Angler is.  IMO at 2-mana 1/2, this feels a bit more fair.  

    Watch Rogue get a card that makes their combo cards cost 1. :)

  • Some suggestions for improving deck guides and deck pages overall

    Heya!

    Back in hearthpwn I loved to mess around with the different buttons in the tools bar, which helped us make our decks more imposing. Since the admins are open for ideas for improving their site, here are my thoughts:

    - Could you make the "font sizes" option so, that we could manually set the size of our texts and not just choose between the 7 given possibilities? Sometimes I feel like those are a bit too restrictive and in the cases, when I want to make different captions, they end up being either too small or too big. So I would appreciate having the ability to write my own desired size number in the aforementioned tab.

    - Can you implement the eraser again (i.e. the ability to remove all links from a copy/pasted word and set its size, colour, font family to default)? Right now, if I quote something from wikipedia for example, I have to left click on the word with an external link, chose the "insert/edit link" button, manually erase the link and repeat this process for the next one.

    - Speaking of quoting, can you add the option of inserting a blanc quotation text box as well?

    - The following is not really important and is probably the least of your concerns, but can you make it possible for a word/phrase to show the picture of a card, if it's linked to its respective OOC card page? Example - 4 mana 7/7 should show Flamewreathed Faceless, when the user places the mouse cursor on the bolded word.

    - Spoilers. I know, I know, another user made a thread about them a little while ago and people have been asking for this feature ever since hearthstation was born, but I decided to include it in the list.

     

    And something, which wa neither an option in the tools bar nor was a thing on hearthpwn - may we please have the ability to pin a post in the comment sections of our deck pages? Right now I would like to make a post, which people would immediately see once they scroll under the deck description, without having the fear that it would be lost somewhere in the comment section, if users wrote a lot of posts after its publication. I don't have this problem yet, because people aren't active on my decks and I can always delete the desired post (btw thanks for implementing that) and paste it once again, in order for this to appear on the top. But this is a change in the future, when the site becomes more popular and more and more people come here to view hot decks and express their opinions on them.

    That's all I can say. If people have other ideas on how to improve the site, you can share them here.

    It's at least far better than Tortollan Primalist.

    Has anyone seen High Inquisitor Whitemane in action yet?

    Quote From Demonxz95

    I recently got the "Explorer's Kit" achievement. What is that?

    As Sinti said, with the beginnings of notifications in place you might start receiving notifications for some of the achievements that have been implemented (but aren't properly visible yet). Think of it as a sneak preview of what's to come =P

    When achievements are properly implemented, you'll be able to see them and view the descriptions for them (at least, the not-hidden ones).

    I'm already hearing its slow, lazily articulated voice line making me uncomfortable ...
    Tortollan will be Tortollans ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
