But you didn't answer my Arcane Hunter question, as I said you would. I understand Arcane Hunter is not an easy topic to talk about, so it's all cool. https://t.co/Gm3nyZRoL8

      @hattri_k I think hunter overall is gonna be fine. No class has all their packages land. Big beast looks like it will still be viable and pretty different from what it was before

        @adam_noodelman Cool. Do you like Arcane Hunter? Because that tweet is about Arcane Hunter, you may didn't notice

          @hattri_k No. It's one of those packages that whiffed. There's not much to justify. Every class has had packages like that. I can give examples for most classes just from this year's sets

            @adam_noodelman I agree with you! Why do you think they don't print support for an archetype that wasn't successful at all?

              @hattri_k Sometimes it's simply better to cut one's losses. Every class has those abandoned packages

                @adam_noodelman Listen, homie, what you're missing here is that ARCANE Hunter, as an idea💡is something that sounds bad even before starting to work on it. If it was a last minute idea to fill the set for the expansion we should be told.

                  @hattri_k But so does multi spell school shaman, fire warrior, murloc warlock, there's so many of these throughout hearthstone. Sometimes they wanna try something way out there for a class that's already strong like hunter was and arguably is

                    @adam_noodelman @hattri_k Arcane Hunter is an awesome archetype, was planned from the start, and I'm glad we did it. Just because an archetype doesn't end up "Tier 1" doesn't mean it was a failure or bad for the game. It's fun, it's flavorful, and it's got potential.

                      @Celestalon @adam_noodelman First of all, thank you so much for answering, no one has done it since I first asked last expansion start. It's not like it wasn't Tier 1, it's more like it didn't stand a chance to be a thing. If it was your bet, then why do you suddenly decide to not support it? 🧐 1/2

                        @Celestalon @adam_noodelman Also, fun is subjective, but I wouldn't say Arcane Hunter is the definition of fun. Not in my book at least. Wild seeds are fun, for example. Lastly, why does the archetype have anti sinergy between fast rider and Halduron? Why not make Halduron buff hand and deck? 🧐

                          @hattri_k @adam_noodelman You've got a lot of incorrect assumptions here. It's fun for many. It absolutely stood a chance. We are supporting it. Halduron wasn't also a handbuff, to limit surprise targeted burst.

                            @Celestalon @hattri_k @adam_noodelman I personally love Eversong Portal- the animation and the Lynx sounds make me giddy. My buddy @FunkiMonkiHS hit decent ranks playing an Arcane deck too 👀. Maybe we'll find the right meta for Arcane to shine again! Maybe future support would help too 😇 Thank you!

                              @SidisiTV @hattri_k @adam_noodelman @FunkiMonkiHS Yeah, and rotation is a big implication too. Arcane Hunter loses basically nothing in rotation, whereas other decks lose a lot, making it relatively stronger compared to the field.

                            @Celestalon @hattri_k @adam_noodelman When I look at the package, there are almost no Arcane spells that you can buff and get a payoff from. Also, only 2 of them can potentially go face, which is probably all right, but I feel like to make the deck interesting, it needs at least a few more supportive spells.🤓💚 https://t.co/sDoKn92uWt

                              @imik_plays @hattri_k @adam_noodelman That's more than a quarter of your deck. That's huge.

                            @Celestalon @hattri_k @adam_noodelman So what about Fel Warlock? Did you cut some awesome big Fel Spell cause that just never got anything.

                              @Sticowish @hattri_k @adam_noodelman What about it? Fel is a major common piece of Warlock identity. You can safely expect more Fel cards in Warlock's future.
