2 of the Spirits actually had prior commitments, so only 8 can actually Convoke at this time. This is the correct textbox! Apologies for any confusion. https://t.co/qWWrcvGQwG https://t.co/C1GRWwYcEo

      Full disclosure, Final Balance happened after a lot of b-roll was taken. That's why it looks like so many cards have changed, when in actuality this happened over a month ago. @RarranHS was given an incorrect image and this is in no way his fault.

        @RarranHS I've seen some people noting that there are cards in this set that are similar to past Hearthstone cards, and you're not wrong. This is really similar to Puzzle Box and Rune of the Archmage, but it's also pretty faithful to the WoW Covenant Spell.

          @RarranHS We tried a couple different designs here, but ultimately this is what had the best gameplay. Rather give you a good card that's fun to play than something that's worse but less similar to existing cards. Convoke casts a bunch of spells, so ultimately this is what we chose. :)

              @Songbird_HS @RarranHS I think Convoke in WOW generates all damage spells doesn't it?

                @yoremeofga @RarranHS It can cast healing spells too. Limiting to just damage spells in Druid in Hearthstone would have been a pretty small pool.

            @Songbird_HS @RarranHS Will it work like Convoke in WoW where it will prioritize certain spells depending on conditions?

              @bpolisighd @RarranHS We tried a version that would prioritize spells that target in some way, and would let you pick the targets throughout the spell cast. The targeted spell pool wasn't huge though and it made the time to cast Convoke really long. So this version has no prioritization, no.

            @Songbird_HS @RarranHS Can convoke cast convoke?

              @schoefty @RarranHS No it can't cast itself.

            @Songbird_HS @RarranHS Why did it change from arcane to nature?

              @adam_noodelman @RarranHS It's a Nature spell in WoW, but we had it incorrectly tagged as an Arcane spell. This is a still pulled from an older build.

      @Songbird_HS Change to 10 or RIOT

        @Rblhcx Sorry, can't do it. 8 is simply a more fun number.

      @Songbird_HS It also changed from Arcane Spell to Nature Spell?

      • Cora

        @MiniCraftler Yeah that was a correction to be accurate to the WoW spell of the same name.

      @Songbird_HS What about the other card he revealed? Was that intentional? Looks like a card from the reveal schedule.

        @imik_plays I will let community take the lead there lol. It is a new card from this set, but I'm not positive when it was supposed to go out. Oh well.
