A new much-requested feature, quality of life updates to existing stuff, and a bunch of bug fixes.

New Features

• Site Search has arrived!
  • This is our first version of site search.
  • You can search for cards, decks, articles, and forum threads.
  • There is a new search box at the top of the site. It will default to searching for cards.
  • We will have card tooltips on the top of site search box in a future update.

Changes

• All deck copy buttons have been renamed so it is more obvious what they do.
  • There was a possible issue where people didn't understand what to click or tap on to copy deck codes. I think this should fix it.
• We've added icons to the account links at the top of the site. They also have some more spacing.
• Cards in a deck list on the deckbuilder now have card tooltips on mouseover.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a spelling error on deck detail pages.
• Deck detail pages should now correctly apply neutral cards to the mana curve.
• Clicking on a golden card that has been embedded on the forums or a guide will now take you to the card page.
• The navigation now scrolls on mobile.
• Account links on mobile should no longer get hidden beneath the navigation.
• Edge users can now use the navigation dropdowns. Edge, why are you such a silly browser?
• Deck embeds now look better on mobile. Go away squishy!
• Fixed a bug where some decks would return errors if their name didn't have any alphabetical characters. :(

Hey, OutOfCards!

Post previews in all modes (thread creation and post creation/editing) would be highly appreciated.

Great Job on the site, and thanks in advance!

Hi all! I'm Scarlet, and I tend to make a lot of custom cards, so I put some into a new video of mine to discuss and talk about them. I'd really appreciate any and all criticisms and feedback possible! 

Thank you!

I predict that the Hearthstone Team will support Thief Priest as a new archetype in the next expansion. For one, they have already printed multiple Legendaries for this archetype, including Talanji and Madame Lazul. Plus, one of the Boomsday cards that they decided to buff was Cloning Device, which could only ever see play if Thief Priest got more synergy cards like Talanji. This next piece of evidence is a little shaky, but in the solo adventures one of the buckets is "What's Mind is Mine", which indicates that Blizzard already thinks of Thief priest as its own archetype. However, Thief priest cards have printed before (such as Archbishop Benedictus) without them following up with synergy cards, so this could just be empty speculation. What do y'all think? Will Thief Priest finally become a deck next expansion?

Hi everyone,

Although already a bit experienced in the game and with hunter, I never got why everyone puts this into decks. Discard 2 cards, really? If someone can explain me I would be very grateful.

First of all, thanks to Flux and his team bringing out a-must feature, which is sweet. However, as much as I loved it, it seems that new feature is bugged, seen here: I have three 6-Cost cards, yet mana curve shows there are none of it. I checked my other decks, then people's decks, and I saw this issue everywhere. I think of a reason why, but not sure: Dust calculation errors were related as if duplicates were calculated as one card. Maybe that's the case here? Hope you guys/gals check mana curve issue, I believe in all of you.

I mean, as much I'd love to, I don't see Out Of Cards becoming an important MTGA site compared to the many other wholeheartedly sites dedicated to the game.

As happens with HS, there are the best sites for stats, others for deck lists, others for community interaction/forums etc. What would be a well rounded site for MTGA daily needs? Much like HearthPwn was for me personally. News, decklists, forum.. It had all. I want that for Magic too!

Does anyone here play Magic in real life outside of Arena? If so what formats do you play? I've been looking for a place to talk about older formats and drafts since the shutdown of MTGSalvation, and I'm already on this site for the HS content.

Hey guys,

Does anyone else feel like Blizzard really missed a chance by having the same final 4 bosses every time on the final wing? When I first heard that the wing's gimmick would be 4 additional encounters, I figured it would work just like the other wings, just giving you more crazy bosses and time to build a crazy deck. However, it seems like the final 4 bosses are the same every time. One of the best things about this adventure is the great variety between all the bosses, and I feel like having the final bosses be the same every time reduces the replayability. Also, the fact that they are all Mages makes it even worse. What are your thoughts?

Hej!

Could you change my username to KH183, please?

Thank you.

Hope everyone had a great weekend! A lot of the weekend was spent on the backend so there isn't much to present. Card Pack opener should arrive at some point this week since there wasn't enough time to get it out this weekend.

New Features

• Animated Card Images!
  • Visit any card page to see a golden animation of the image.
    • This took a TON of work last week and took a few days to render every card in the game.
    • We decided to use the exact same templating we had back on HearthPwn for those that have templates that use card images so no extra work is needed on your end.
  • The cardimg bbcode also supports animated images.  will give you a nice golden version of the card.
• Animated Card Backs!
  • Visit card back pages to see their animations too!
  • No bbcode is available right now for card backs.
• Strikethrough text in the editor is now available.
• Mana Curves are now available on deck pages. They are found above a deck's card list. I know no one wanted these =)

Changes

• We now link to patch notes on card pages where we list a change for a card.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue that caused dust calculations to not give the desired results. Second copies of cards weren't added to the math. Oops.
• All decks that were flagged as Standard when they were really Wild have been batch fixed.

Writing to suggest that the Decks and Card pages have a more robust filtering process, I'm guessing it's "on the list" but wanted to offer suggestions.

Having filter values of "unknown" as default values is bad design, IMO.  Don't think you should have "unknown" as a choice at all.

Same with the Archetypes, none or blank instead of "unknown".  Also who defines the archetypes? Is it a self assigned thing? Do people pick from a list or do they just make it up on the fly?

It would be nice if it was possible to sort decks like "the site that will not be named" does by "Hot", "New", "Top-Week", "Top-month", "Top-all-time".

Cards don't have the ability to search by minion effects (deathrattle, battlecry, etc).

Will we have the ability to view the cards in a list (as it currently is) or as images?

Do you have a list or schedule of all of the up and coming changes on the radar?

Thanks for all of the work you do on this site!

Was climbing ladder and had a miss play, noticed that the echo copy does not get a discount. I think that’s whack, but was still able to win the match. 

Hello!

I tried to look around in this feedback forum section for similar requests, but couldn't really find one.

Under the "Cards" section, I was wondering if it's possible to implement (in the near future) a thumbnail image view for all cards at a glance (for all classes, all cards, etc.), rather than full texts. Similar to the Deckbuilder layout, but we could filter and refine based on what we want to see in order to brainstorm and build new decks.

Perhaps we can limit the number of cards loaded per page on the search results, to prevent from loading too slow. And perhaps could set like 20, 50, 100 cards view options.

Thanks!

Hello everyone, I am designing my first custom class, and I have no idea where to get art from. up to this point I have just been making miscellaneous cards for card competitions on Hearthpwn (none of which made it to the finals) and it has been fine just googling for the image I need. But when making 20+ cards, well, I need a more reliable source of unique arts. Can anyone who makes a lot of custom cards help me find a place where I can get a lot of good card arts? Thanks in advance.

I noticed a table on the forums that was completely unreadable on mobile. It was 6 columns wide, and for some reason it would set the width of the table to 100% and put all the words vertically.

So, I'm a fan of the fun and crazy variety of characters in Warcraft lore, and messing around with them in card form is one of the main reasons I play this game. Everything from human knights to lovecraftian old gods to robots is fair game for these characters. That being said, a lot of well-known characters have yet to make an appearance in Hearthstone. What lore characters do you think are overdue for an appearance in hearthstone, and would you rather see them as a Legendary or a hero?

Just looking for opinions or synergies I might've missed...

This one so far has had an above 50% winrate, which for it's cost and considering it's jank, is pretty good. Deck relies on SMOrc-ing so maybe taunt silencing could work.. also the obvious Deathstalker Rexxar backup plan. Thoughts?

I have been wondering about the hero power selection in the heist adventure and it seems like the hero powers in the adventure might be alternative hero powers in common play in the future..

Of course not in the same balance since they are a bit overturned for the adventure but a toned down version (or even buffed) might be something that might appeal to team 5 to implement into HS in the future..

Think about it many cards/archtypes team 5 tried to push failed due to lack of consistency, for example "freeze" tempo mage(the one with tempo freeze cards) or overload shaman, or rush/enrage tempo warrior decks..

I think such decks have been held back by the lack of support in the hero powers, there seem to be some hero powers that might support those archtypes while still being basic enough for the game.

I will give my idea about implementing the heist hero powers into standard play will try to keep it as brief as possible as this post is already too long anyway.

Do note that I am  balancing them around "the effects cost either 0 mana or 1 mana and a drawback"

By upgraded I mean the baku hero power.

Mage: 2 mana freeze an enemy. upgraded: and deal 1 damage to it

Shaman: 2 mana draw a card overload (1), 1 mana might be too OP, at 2 mana it enables overload synergy easier, while having a clear draw back. upgraded: draw 2 cards.

Hunter: opportunist from heist is perfect as is +2 attack is balanced by the fact you need to have rush or already present minions to activate it. upgraded: +3 attack

Priest: 2 mana lower the attack of a minion by 2 until your next turn. upgraded: by 3

Rogue: 2 mana burgle a card from another class (not sure might be too OP, no idea how to nerf it but it's a "0 mana" effect) upgraded: burgle 2 cards.

Warrior:2 mana deal 1 damage to a friendly minion give it +2 attack upgraded: +3.

Druid: 2 mana give a friendly minion +1/+1. upgraded: +2/+1

Paladin: 2 mana give a friendly minion divine shield. upgraded: I am actually not sure.. maybe the other one supporting hand buff is more healty.

Warlock: 2 mana, take 2 damage deal 2 damage. upgraded: 3 damage taken/dealt

Now are you thinking how would they reward them to players.. well there IS a pointless system currently that tracks your hero level that level is totally pointless from level 10, it could after level 30 for example unlock the alternate hero powers which you will choose on deck building, also the hero power will need to show up on the hero portrait for clarity so you can mulligan for it better.

What do you think will blizzard/team 5 introduce such a change in the future, and used heist as a testing ground for this feature?

Title says it all, but I will explain it for better understanding: Wild players create Odd/Even decks. On Hearthpwn, we can filter cost of cards as Odd/Even. So, why not here?

Now this one really needs attention because it helps people to build their deck conveniently. On Hearthpwn, we can preview a card when we hover over a card, as seen in the picture (Yellow: Mouse cursor, screenshot didn't bring it out):

Whereas, on OutofCards, it's not possible, seen here (Yellow: Mouse cursor):

Hope it's possible to bring both features here, especially Thumbnail one, because it can be quite annoying when you forgot a card's ability and you need to search from pictures to find it. With thumbnail, all we need to do is hover over a card's name and that's it.

P.S: I want this thread deleted, if possible. It was the same thread opened about a week ago.

Hi guys,

I'm having lots of fun with my version of Zoo Priest. The Prest draw with Northshire Cleric and Bwonsamdi, the Dead is awesome with Magic Carpet and the other 1-Drops. Still trying to get to the ideal lineup, mainly with the 1-Drops and the buff opportunities. Any suggestions?

Greetings

My Zoo is cuter than yours

If you want explanations about them ask here, I only did a guide for the Paladin one.

I was wondering if anyone knows how to download a cards artwork with the golden animation and make it into a profile picture here on OOC, preferably without/or cropped from the cards surrounding frame.

Thanks!
