wouldn't it be much less interesting if they kept rehashing a card's previous effects just for consistency's sake?
LIke, sure Battlecry Hunter could be fun, but it has pretty much no support at the moment so what's the point of shoehorning the Battlecry mechanic onto Brann?
absolutely nuts. Running two Slude Slurpers already gets 4 procs done for just 4 mana, add EVIL totem and a bunch of other battlecry synergies and this becomes crazy.
Token Shudderwock might finally take off, especially since that deck usually doesn't have a good turn 1 play anyways.
Just with lackes this is already great, but combine it with stuff like Giggling Inventor and Former Champ and you have a solid transition into the midgame, espcially since the totem hero power is fairly useless (and occasionally detrimental) in that kind of deck
Cult Master takes care of draw as you have all that lackey generation anyways.
Well, this was a pretty fun run. The screenshot above is quite indicative of the whole think - lot of early pressure, value generated from the pirates stealing cards along with the boosts from Ethereal Peddler along with some very tight burst-finishes from Tinker's Sharpsword Oil.
Although I'm not going to pre-order new expansion because both options are too expensive for me, I would like show you how to buy Uldum pre-order cheaper with currency trick. It's widely known that Blizzard Shop is far more expensive than Google Store or Amazon Store because these stores have discount. If you don't want to bother with emulators for Amazon or Google, you can use internet country domains list as your advantage which I found by accident.
As an example, I reside in EU. Before this trick, if I had to buy something special/exclusive on Blizzard Shop:
Then, I entered at https://us.shop.battle.net/en-gb/family/hearthstone to buy Master's Bundle a month ago, where the currency was USD. Thus, I bought the bundle with a fair discount thanks to currency change and I could be able to redirect my purchase to EU region. Since there was no currency conversion problem within my bank, there were no issues regarding the transaction.
With these in mind, what I really found by accident is: https://kr.shop.battle.net/en-gb/family/hearthstone (enter via VPN if needed. Opera would be a good browser to access with). It's South Korean link of Blizzard Shop, where the currency is KRW. When I take a look at Uldum-Mega Bundle, which was originally 80 USD/EUR, it was 80000 KRW (equivalent of 60 EUR or 68.42 USD). If you buy this bundle with this link -assuming there is no problem from your bank regarding currency conversion and/or region selection from Blizzard Shop while purchasing for your account-, you will get a fair discount.
In short, have a look at internet country domain lists and currencies Blizzard Shop is supporting. Then, if your bank can convert currencies without any hassle and no problem from region selection, change "eu" to "kr" or any country Blizzard Shop supports its currency. Keep in mind that all links of Blizzard Shop can't be entered via this trick (Example: https://shop.battlenet.com.cn/zh-cn). You need to try with trial-by-error: Either enter TLD at the start of the link or at the end of the link, with country codes in mind.
If I recall, Argentina/Brazil/Mexico links of Blizzard Shop have good discounts thanks to their currencies/policies or whatever. If anyone can share here, I think everyone can purchase bundles far more cheaper than South Korean link of Blizzard shop. I'm sorry that my English isn't that good but I think I did my best for a good tutorial.
Will this cause Shudderwock to play both Battlecries from earlier minions? Say you play a [Hearthstone Card (Twilight) Not Found] Drake with 7 cards in your hand. It goes off twice so it gains +14 health.
If you played Shudderwock normally next turn, would it replay both of the drake's Battlecries or just the one?
I've got amazon coins to use so yeah I will definitely buy the 50 pack bundle. The 19% discount is nice to have! Not sure I'd pay full price in British pounds.
I always wait until the last minute incase they have a "5% coins back" deal for the HS app. But they've not had that in like 2 years so... Live in hope, I guess.
No. With my rotten luck with packs I'll probably get all the bad, gimmicky legendary cards I don't want. Happened with the recent Thunder King pack, only legendary I got was Chef Nomi.
I'll wait till there is some kind of discount. And still likely get bad legendary cards I don't want.
The pre-order bundle will be the only discount for quite some time.
It's interesting that every quest will come with a hero power reward. I really like this idea, since the opponent can't interfere with all your hard work (like Deadly Shot on a Galvodon...). The non-interactive element is a concern, perhaps. Will we see more hero power disruption this expansion?
Blizzard obviously found death knights to be rewarding, so I guess they're trying to find ways to introduce new hero powers without breaking Standard!
They're really ramping the power of quests. So much so that so far it seems that players will have little choice but to play them. Which also means that players who lack particular quest cards may find those classes unplayable.
New Shaman Quest Revealed! - Corrupt the Waters
Not a fan of these quests, DK's have better hero power and some DK's require less deck building around them.
I don't see them being played in Wild unless the hero power becomes better than the DK's one -I might be wrong of course but they do seem fun.

It seems okay but not broken, you have to pay to mana for it every turn

Shame it's not passive, but that would be too OP imo.

Have you pre-ordered the expansion yet?
I will not preorder the new expansion, because I buy the packs only with gold and craft the missing important cards with dust.
Actually I have 26k gold and > 40k dust, so I don't really need to buy with cash.

If it plays both you could make a seriously big Shudderwock with Omega Defender, Twilight Drake and other similar cards.

Very nice, I like this site so far. But, are the timers see-able on mobile as well:D?
Have you pre-ordered the expansion yet?
The next expansion is almost out already?
Damn, that was quick.
But I have 7000 gold so I should be okay. Saving my money this time around.

Thanks for the write up.
Feels like if you don't draw pyro with some cheap spells early on, it's pretty much a lost game. Especiall against Aggro.
