I may have quit playing the game earlier this year, but I still want to hear about your amazing pack openings! Share what you got, what you're hunting for, etc.

What are you up to this month? Have any games in mind for the future? Let us know in the comments below!

At present, I am done playing Marvel Snap again (again). I've transitioned over to Pokemon TCG Pocket - while this game has packs that muddy your ability to chase things, it still feels less predatory than Snap does if you want to make specific decks. The ability to craft a particular card always helps. Snap remained fun, but it's just too expensive.

Beyond that, I'm probably gonna start Dragon Age: The Veilguard sometime today. Haven't decided on a class yet - Warrior has a fun looking dropkick attack and can become a Reaper, a necromantic combatant different than the normal Paladin/Barbarian/Fighter experience one usually gets offered in RPGs. Mage is always a fun one, too, and Rogue might be as well; too many appealing choices! I haven't forgotten about Black Myth: Wukong, but maybe if I step away and focus on something else, I can return to the monkey with a healthier/happier mindset.

Regarding November at large, I'm not sure if anything major comes out this month that I want. December is Marvel Rivals, Indiana Jones, The Spirit of the Samurai, etc.; but this month is weirdly dry for my interests. I'm okay with that, honestly: the amount of money I can devote to video games shrinks with each passing day it seems :/

Title says it all:  post a screenshot of your best card packs, so we can gaze upon your luckiness and despair! I'll start with this ridiculous Pikachu pack I opened a few minutes ago :D

It's a "Rare Pack", with the .05% chance of occurrence. Even then, having five EX Pokemon inside was still a craaaazzy hit!

What are your thoughts on this topic ? Do you think they will add Nelf, Human, Orc, Dwarf etc. in future ?

To be fair, I dislike the idea. I always thought that WoW playable races shouldn't be added as tribe because it was always like minions with tags on board are minions, thralls that we are commanding or battlepets like Hunter/Warlock Companions from WoW etc. and tribeless cards are people from the party so everything had more meaning, even limited-to-seven board. Also tribe tag is limiting those races mechanically like how murlocs, beasts etc. are themed around some mechanics but these controllable races can be anything, a mage, a warrior, a priest etc. So mechanically it just looks wrong and limiting the art styles and the game's mechanic imo.

It would be better if Hearthstone could have tribes like how MTG has from beginning but they chose to go with tribeless path so there needed to be some cards which has no tribes and i always think that those tribeless cards will be playable classes of Warcraft. Now it has been broken with the release of draenei.

Also, tribes in hearthstone had some themes/mechanics added to them. I read it like Draenei will have the theme that each draenei will give a bonus for next draenei but looking at all cards there are a lot of draenei with random effects, Also there is this fact that there are dozens of older draenei which could never fit this theme like these guys here and so much more;



Also there is this fact that they gave Draenei tribe tag to Broken/Lost One which we can see on Exarch Akama and Demon tag to Man'ari Eredar from beginning. This is just sad and breaking the point that HS would be wider with addition of them but without those, it just feels wrong.

What will they do with those old cards, will they give Draenei tag to them too ? If they won't, it would be inconsistent with what they did with Undead, Naga etc. before in my opinion. If they will, it will be mechanically absurd.

So my point is, they shouldn't add a playable race as a tribe tag because they can be any class so they can't be or shouldn't be limited with a tribe tag and its mechanic/theme. they created cards and can/will create cards with those arts in future and it will break consistency even more, it still breaks it with adding the tribe to older cards.

If they had to add a tribe, it might be Ethereal for this expansion. It is more thematic tribe that you can bind them to a single mechanic but in my opinion you shouldn't bind a tribe like draenei to a mechanic. It looks so shallow and plain when you do that.

Now what awaits us ? Orcs with Frenzy ? Dwarves with Taunts ? Humans with Inspire ? Nelves with choose one ?

Don't get me wrong, it is always cool to have some content like this but it is not MTG which creatures has Human tribe with Soldier so you can do mechanically everything with those like a Human Werewolf or an Orc Warrior but this is HS and we all know how tribes are there mechanically.

In final thoughts, if they started to add these races as tribes, we won't have any tribeless cards in future so that's a problem on my point of view. There was a reason before as they don't add tribes for cards, like tutoring them for example. If they continue to add other races, that means we won't have any tribeless cards in future which is a problem in a game designed with addition of tribeless cards. I was skeptical when they added undead before but it was ok because they weren't a playable class so you can theme them around necromancy stuff but it started with Draenei now.

Why I am saying this ? Because now i will be pissed off if they won't add other races as tribe tag as Nelf, Human, Orc, Tauren etc. with Draenei addition they have no excuses anymore to add the others too. There was this excuse before which i explained above with mechanics, theme etc. Now it is gone with Draenei. it is a bad move and choice for game design of Hearthstone.

TL;DR I'm sad that draenei is used for Tribe, It should have been Ethereals.
