Here are a few breakdowns on the new quests:

There are three quests that allow for zero flexibility in building:

Paladin: great reward, good deck, fun deck, but there's only one way to use this quest. Play all of the reborns and add mech deathrattles. There are really no other versions out there. And since they rarely re-use keywords, we might not get other reborns in the future to make the options more interesting.

Warlock: this deck was already built the moment the quest was printed. Plot twist is the only way. Unlike Paladin, though, this one doesn't really work. Also unlike Paladin, however, there is room for future development.

Druid: quest Druid is strong and may be fun, but there is no room for variety. Every quest Druid game plays out the same way. Leave mana for 4 turns, start playing the same bunch of choose ones. Even with more choose one options in the future, this deck is more or less set in stone. There's no way to aggro it, since you have to float mana early. 

The other decks work/don't work to varying degree, but they all allow some flexibility in style. You can aim for aggro, midrange, or control with most of them. Priest can only be control, but there are various approaches. Shaman is the ultimate example of flexibility. There are 1,000 battlecry minions in the game, so you have nearly infinitely many combos to play around with. 

There are 4 quests that can regularly, easily be completed very early in the game: Shaman, Druid, Paladin, and Rogue. Warrior can sometimes be completed early. Warlock, Hunter, Mage, and Priest all necessarily take a while.  

There are 3 quests that are in meta decks - Shaman, Paladin, and Druid.

Shaman in the only quest that is flexible, easy to complete, and good. Some of the other quests check of 2 of the 3 boxes.

What quests have the most potential in future expansions?

Shaman will always be good.

Warlock needs more plot twist synergies.

Hunter has an amazing collection of cards right now and still can't get the quest to work. It's probably not ever happening.

Rogue can complete easily with quality cards, but the reward is weird. The immunity doesn't matter much for aggro, and the damage is too low for control. Rogue would need more weapon synergy cards for this to work.

Mage has tons of cheap spells already. Maybe the reward just isn't worth it.

Warrior...who knows? It's a fine reward, but there aren't ways to build weapon centered Warrior decks right now. It's not fast enough for aggro, and for control, you'd rather have Dr Boom's hero power.

Paladin will probably be exactly as good as it is right now unless they add some variety in reborn minions.

Priest has plenty of potential to improve. Any control support will help this quest.

Druid will probably be exactly as good as it is right now unless they add something ridiculous in the choose one options.

Sadly there's no poll option here yet will you buy the adventure?

if you do did you preorder, plan to buy after release or will you spend gold on it?

personally I spent 2800 gold on dalaran's heist and I am not regretting it at all I already have 700 gold for the adventure's first wing and I am planning to gather all in gold since more or less you do earn 700 gold a week.

As seen in HSreplay and Hearthpwn, both sites have their individual card database maintenance softwares for players and I have to admit that it's extremely helpful for players wanting to build specific decks from the site.

I have seen the "Your Cost" column in out of cards and would just like to request the team to put up the card database software as soon as possible. The decks put up here are super impressive and I'm sure many players like myself who play on a tight budget would like to know how much dust they would need to spend on building a certain deck.

Thanks very much in advance.

EDIT:

OR:

FYI: Casts When Drawn always draws you another card. It never denies card draw. Just look at how Bomb works.

The idea is to have a neutral, playable but sub-optimal (maybe 4/3 would be better?) anti-Reno tech, that is not a game sealer against Reno, but it can buy precious turns (similar concept to Loatheb). Indeed, the shuffled cards are 1-costed, which means they can be cleared by Skulking Geist.

ALTERNATE, with a drawback for you (maybe this one should be called Nasty Cantrip instead)

Also notice it cannot prevent an early Zephrys the Great, because of its cost, and it's not an optimal body, nor a value generator for you (unlike Beneath the Grounds). Just a time-buyer against an incoming Highlander card, and barely a decent card anywhere else (similarly to Acidic Swamp Ooze, or Kezan Mystic).

• What do you think?
• Is the version with enemy 1/1 taunt more balanced and/or fun to encounter? Especially in Wild?
• Or shuffle just 2x instead of 3x?
• Maybe 4/3 would be more in-line with a tech card? 

I suppose the subject says it all, but I was really thrilled to see my first ever front page deck. I'm 40-15 with it and I think it's a lot of fun (if weak against Quest Shaman). Lemme know what you think!

To my big surprise, a new game board is here (I lost in turn 4 against Wild mech-hunter)

Just trying to have fun with the hunter quest and I figured I might as well get help from the neat people here.

-I'm definitely adding another Rat Pack in there- it's just great in this deck.

-Don't like the SN1P-SN4P- Oozeling interaction and the microbots are not beasts anyway..

-speaking of beasts, there might be a way to use the fact that all the tokens are beasts but Idk it yet.

I wanted to ask for some opinions of which variant of Highlander Hunter is strongest or most efficient in most situations. I have seen many variants but can't quite make upmy mind about it. Would appreciate as many answers as possible :)

ROGUE SECRETS (0 MANA)

"But Cheese! Rogue already has Secrets and they cost 2 mana, not 0!"

Yes, but I started making this series of secrets before K&C, therefore before actual Rogue secrets were released. I thought it makes much more sense for Rogue secrets to cost 0 mana rather than 0 because it fits the combo nature of the class better.

My Rogue secrets are mostly based around keeping tempo.

In addition, I remade Evasion and Cheat Death as 0 mana Rogue Secrets:

Unfortunately I couldn't find any 0 mana effect that would fit Sudden Betrayal.

WARRIOR SECRETS (1 MANA)

Like Paladin secrets, my Warriors secrets cost 1 mana. They are mostly defensive Secrets rather than tempo ones.

Yes, I know two of them are called Last Stand. I fucked up.

WARLOCK SECRETS (4 mana)

Warlock secrets are expension, this is why their effect is powerful and their trigger conditions restrictive to not be easily countered. Warlock secrets are control-oriented.

I tried to think about secrets for Druid; Shaman; and Priest, but they don't feel like secret classes at all.

I guess something with Overloaded Secrets could be strategically nice but sort of complicated UI-wise.

If I play the sidekick with an Amet in play. Targeting the Amet with the sidekicks battlecry.

Shouldn't the battlecry of the sidekick trigger first, giving the amet 9 life, and then gain 9 life itself?

Now the battlecry triggers, but the sidekick comes in play with 7 life. 

This has been bugging me for five months. Seriously, what does she say when you play her? All I can hear is "Glen Beck". Not even the Hearthstone wiki knows.

Can we put our heads together and solve this?

New Features

• You can now display the card listing as card images!
  • The default will remain the table / text view since it is less to load for those on mobile or slower connections.
  • You can display the results as card images with the new "Results Display" dropdown.
  • Here are collectible card images displayed as images.
  • We might make these a little bit smaller to fit 5 per line as the default.
• The card listing can now filter by the patch they were added in.
  • The perfect feature for looking at all the raw card data we import during patches. 
  • This doesn't have an effect for very old patches. We'll eventually get all the cards updated properly though!
• You can now also filter cards by their text on card listings.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a problem with the Hearthstone Deckbuilder's Mechanics dropdown that incorrectly removed cards with multiple mechanics.

Hi everyone!

Yesterday, Proenix, the spanish mvp, has shown 3 new cardbacks from Saviors of Uldum new adventure (nm and hc) and October season. Here there are (in spanish):

enjoy

Twice in the last day I've received a notification that a member made a comment on my thread, but when I clicked it, it took me to an error page. I also tried just going to the thread it indicated, but there was no new comment by the member indicated. This happened twice, 2 different members on two different threads. What's up with this? I love this community and want to know what they're saying!

Seriously, what am I supposed to do with 5 gold? I don't play arena too often, so when there's a promotion/free ticket event, I get in there. I always get a 25 or 35 gold reward, then that 5 gold just sits there staring at me, laughing because I can't spend it. Am I little over-annoyed by this? Oh yes, of course. No rational person would get so upset. Just finished my second arena run of the week, just hoping to get another 5 gold to balance it out. Nope. You know what? You can TAKE my 5 gold back! I'd rather LOSE 5 gold then continue being stuck with this stupid little hang-on that I can't use.

Anyone else feel at least a little bit like this? Or just tell me I'm nuts. That's fine too.

I was chatting with MalcolmReynolds about King Phaoris, and thought I might throw some attention on this deck I've been running in wild, around Rank 12. It's very fun, and can win many match-ups. Your early game options are super strong (Blackwing Technician, Garden Gnome, etc.) and they should guide your mulligan. If you have a Netherspite Historian or Firetree Witchdoctor, for example, keep a dragon, even if it's big. Garden Gnome? Maybe hold onto that Overflow.

I cut Nourish as I had hand size issues, and Grand Archivist because he kept punching me in the nuts, the bastard.

Make it to turn 7 without losing the board, and you should be able to go the distance.

Have fun! Let me know how it goes!

Our website is generally populated by a community that tends to prefer and give upvotes to what is off-meta, or meme, and/or with funny description/story. That's ok ofc.

But the result in the Hot Decks boxes of the front page is often that a hot deck could be either a meme, or a candidate meta-breaker (more often the former), without the user being able to discern, before actually opening the deck page.

And imo, the fact we display memes or Casual decks as Hot Decks makes us look as weirdos to a generic new user trying to find a place to improve their Ranked performances with the game.

So my idea is, what about 4 Hot Decks boxes? One for Standard Ranked, one for Wild Ranked, one for Standard Just for Fun, one for Wild Just for Fun.

ALTERNATIVELY, the 'Just for Fun' could all be merged together in a unique box, Standard and Wild.

With 'Just for Fun' as the default option when an author publishes a new deck.

At that point, deck authors should be compelled (maybe with a warning that clarifies that, if they try to select it) to define their deck as 'Ranked' ONLY IF they can provide the description of some decent performances in Ladder. And it'd be pretty easy to spot scams anyway, since a weird deck with no detailed explanation is easily just a Casual deck.

The current Pro Decks (typically overlooked btw) could be merged in the new Standard Ranked, and/or accounted for with an additional variable in the visibility algorithm.

PS: if and when all this is implemented, an additional temporary Theorycraft box could be conceived, across expansions release times.

Hey guys, I just wanted to share something that made me happy today.

I had opened a bunch of Uldum packs without a legendary, roughly 30-35, and I was getting a little frustrated. Today I opened a pack and hovered over a card to find it glowing orange. my reaction was "its about time, this better be good" I was pleasantly surprised to find it was a GOLDEN King Phaoris! This is a card I wanted to try out, but I was a little scared to craft it, and now I have a super shiny version of it! I usually dust golden legendaries because I am F2P, but I think I will keep this guy. for one, he is super shiny, and also this is a legendary I really wanted to have.

I will try him out in a quest druid and a big spell shaman. wish me luck!

I know it only looks at public information, but the number of cards remaining in my deck is public, right?

Because when I'm facing an opponent with 10 cards left and I have 0 cards left and an empty board, what would be perfect would be Archivist Elysiana. Or even a Baleful Banker. Or Spirit of the Dead. Or Togwaggle's Scheme. Anything to give me staying power would be more useful that Tirion.

A new Legendary Neutral Minion, Zephrys the Great, has been revealed!

• Card pool for the offered cards is Basic + Classic sets
• The three options will be cards that will help in your current situation, usually aoe/single target removal/proactive card (minion)
  • Ex.: You are at 7 mana and opponent has many minions > get a board clear like Flamestrike
• Offered cards have to be interesting, no Bloodfen Raptor :(
• They created Zephrys because they wanted a cool highlander card similar to Kazakus, so these decks would be worth playing
• They initially didnt know if Zephrys mechanic would be technically possible to do and went through at least 5 variations before settling on the final one, one of which was to offer a card from your collection

Hey all.

I wanted to let you know, that Frostmourne is bugged. People already mentioned it in the official forums, but I wanted to make a thread about it, so that more people would be aware of this interaction and won't lose games because of it. If you want proof, here's a recent game of mine:

https://hsreplay.net/replay/5LzYkpwQ7SuEhTp89a5B28

Turns, where I used the weapon - 16, 20 and 21.

Any other unashamed furries playing?

Anyone else a fan? Anyone got any mods that will work on Windows 10?

I played this game all the way up until 2016.

Are the decks listed on the front page in this section from tournament formats only or also the stuff the pros play on their streams?  I ask because most tournament decks are actually pretty bad on ladder.
