Pretty sure there's no problem mentioning Hearthpwn by name here. On the other hand, I got a warning and my post deleted for simply stating that I was moving on to Out of cards on Hearthpwn. Apparently they thought I was promoting my own website...
Druid -- Better than the alternate already there. Now if they could find a form other than something boring and brainless that only craps trees ...
Hunter -- I hate hunters. But the hyena has personality. Probably the best skin this class has.
Mage -- Yes, and please have a mage melee weapon available, because "RAKANISHU!!!" is a cool war cry.
Paladin -- Arthas still is the gold standard, but George is a good foil. Not as hypocritical as Uther, not as arrogant as Blood Elf Lady, and sure as hell not as annoying as ... hello?
Priest -- My fave class. But this hero sucks. Caw. Also, Anduin remains That Priest, good times and bad.
Rogue -- HELL YES, and I don't even play the class. But just add more text bubbles because I can't tell what the English voice is saying (So it's "eat grapeshot, mongrel?" on melee attack. Hm.).
Shaman -- King Rastakhan's Oops is hard to top (best sass since sorry left us), but the Snake is a strong second in the crowded Shaman field.
Warlock -- Looks cool, sounds dorky. Got nothing compared to the three others in this position, each of which can make an argument as the best warlock skin.
Warrior -- "You are in my way." (Mr. Chu easily pushes Garrosh out of the picture; Magni, walking away: "Nope.").
Out of interest would you simply prefer it if there were just heaps of different hero portraits to choose from or is it these particular characters / art works that you like?
Achievements and pack opener will be great too =D Especially since Flux already spoiled all the secret achievements on Hearthpwn while we thought it was shutting down. LUL.
I agree. We should have gotten some feedback on that before making it the default.
I've changed it so those on mobile will see news first. I'd like to make an option down the line so those that are logged in could choose what they want to see. Full site patch notes will be added later tonight.
I was playing Secret Hunter against a Token Druid, an almost unwinnable matchup for me. I lost, of course. My opponent then adds me just to call me a noob then unfriends me. Hey Kenlykun, if you're out there I just want you to know you're a cowardly asswipe
TL;DR: She is pretty much useless in any matchup that isn't control vs control. If you don't run her, you will lose every control mirror match. It's up to you and the decks you face on ladder if you want to include her or not.
I think I agree. I've never used her in non-control matchups. Most of the time, she's just a dead card in your hand. She's essential in Control Warrior mirrors, but also responsible for making those games unbearably loooong.
There's a poll about which site people want to use and somehow OOC is currently winning despite the poll being hosted on HP. Color me surprised; I wouldn't have thought such an overwhelming majority would come over simply because reading is hard
I'm no lawyer but wouldn't it be hilarious if the new owners could somehow peruse legal action against Curse after all this? They basically shat on the site so hard that over half of the active users left right before Magic Find took control
What I discovered is that sometimes, people may actually be thanking you. I play some aggro decks and just concede when it is obvious my goose is cooked, even a few turns in, long before lethal. People emote thanks, I guess for saving everyone's time.
Not to mention that only one of the two sites is a corporate profit venture. With corporations, profit is the product, and the purported product is only a means to an end and is therefore invested in as little possible to reach that end. Look at the airlines, the experience is terrible, universally reviled, but they sell tickets so that's how it goes.
I'm a global moderator on MTGSalvation, as well. If you're looking for someone to do anything on here involving Magic, I'm more than happy to do it. I enjoyed chatting with you all before, I'm more than happy to work with/for you now.
Hey there. I'm one of the current admins at MTGSalvation, and we're in the same boat as you guys are with respect to the Curse->Fandom closure and last-minute buyout. Our new site, MTGNexus, isn't quite off the ground yet. If you'd be interested in partnering, it could be in both of our best interests.
No plans on pulling an mmo-champion, that's for sure.
Since we're all from a Hearthstone background, it makes sense that there is very limited Magic discussion right now. I'm certain once we start expanding more into the game, we'll attract more visitors and maybe even pull people out of hiding. As it is right now, many people may not even know we have plans to cover magic and likely don't know about the one forum we have for it. It's also important once we start magic coverage we give people a way that don't want to see anything magic the ability to not see it.
Once we're comfortable with our Hearthstone features and coverage, full dev time goes into Magic to give it the same treatment we've given Hearthstone. It is gonna be one crazy journey.
About a decade ago, in my early teens, I moderated over a portuguese Pokémon forum. There were plenty of brazillian portuguese forums around, but that forum was the biggest from Portugal. That sweet spot in the "pokémon forum market" made the forum very populated for a pokemon forum (not at serebii or smogon levels of usage, but pretty much every single portuguese player was there and even a lot of brazillian users ended up in there).
Eventually, between all the moderator drama or people literally outgrowing from Pokémon, other portuguese forums were created by ex-mods and very old members, branching out the users, and the forum died. But since so many forums were created, no forum rose from the ashes and, as far as I know, there is no portuguese Pokémon forum alive today. My interest in Pokémon eventually died down as well, between the fact that no meta came even close to being as good as the 4th gen meta and me finding other games.
The fact that you picked up all the old HeathPwn staff is great. It means no overbranching issues at the very least. I might still go there from time to time, but I hope I eventually just stay here.
You never insulted anyone on the salt thread. The closest you made to an infraction was spamming... and even that was permitted.
There was just way too much unnecessary backlash at you. Other people, however, actively insulted others and wished for the death of people because they were playing a children's card game differently and no backlash was given to them.
You just be yourself. Maybe moderate a little, but if the salt rises, the salt thread will be there :)
I don't wanna change your mind because it's thinking the right things. I would trade all the packs, golden or otherwise, from the heist if I could just get Ol' Barkeye or Squeemlish for my heroes.
Soooo that other site..

The Dalaran Heist alternate heroes should be collectible. Change my mind!

There is a 100% chance! We do want a way to accommodate different visual styles in some way.
[mobile] could it be made, that on mobile view, the news are the main (and first) view, not the decks?
Thanks :)

Man, they really went far and beyond to show Backstab is free!
Looking forward to the new website. It already looks great! Definitely will stick around.
Does your Elysianna see much play?
I think I agree. I've never used her in non-control matchups. Most of the time, she's just a dead card in your hand. She's essential in Control Warrior mirrors, but also responsible for making those games unbearably loooong.
I don't regret dusting her after the nerf.

I would love this, Rakanishu has some of my favorite voice lines in the game.

Plans to expand on MTGA sections of the site?
