Howdy, I love Hearthstone more than I ever did MtG but one of the things I really miss is all the different formats you could play.  When you got your friends together there was a bunch of different rule sets that we either learned from others or found online.  Even had a few house formats for fun (first 5 turns no attacking was interesting).  

My favorite one always comes to mind with these co-op brawls, and that's 2 headed giants.  This format essentially allowed 4 players to join in teams of 2.  Both players share a life total (double the normal starting amount).  You didn't share a mana pool and the format for turns was Team 1 player A, Team 2 player A, Team 1 player B, team 2 player B.  This was a blast as we had tons of different ways to play it.  Sometimes one player was incredibly defensive while the second played combo.  You could also double up on the same strategy like a super aggro team.  I would love to see something like this in Hearthstone.  

What formats would you like to see?

Based on my current collection I was able to make a deck that performs decent.

1 Banehound (WAR) 77
2 Healer's Hawk (GRN) 14
1 Vengeant Vampire (G18) GP3
1 Dreadhorde Invasion (WAR) 86
2 Sorin, Vengeful Bloodlord (WAR) 217
13 Swamp (RIX) 194
11 Plains (RIX) 192
2 Ajani's Welcome (M19) 6
2 Ajani's Pridemate (WAR) 4
1 Divine Arrow (WAR) 10
1 Kinjalli's Sunwing (XLN) 19
2 Territorial Hammerskull (XLN) 41
1 Resplendent Angel (M19) 34
3 Leonin Warleader (M19) 23
1 Shalai, Voice of Plenty (DAR) 35
1 God-Eternal Oketra (WAR) 16
1 Angelic Guardian (G18) GP1
1 Eviscerate (DAR) 91
2 Ravenous Chupacabra (RIX) 82
2 Murder (M19) 110
1 Mentor of the Meek (M19) 27
1 Dusk Legion Zealot (RIX) 70
2 Blood Divination (M19) 86
1 Liliana, Dreadhorde General (WAR) 97
1 God-Eternal Bontu (WAR) 92
3 Orzhov Guildgate (RNA) 253

Feels a little bit like a mix or aggro and mid range.

How is it possible that they have not released the update for iphone yet?

I hope this isn't just me - but the biggest reason I kept coming back to Hearthpwn was definitely the Card Creation Competitions. Are you guys planning to have those again? I could even help out, if you need. I loved those!

Hey you clever bunch, great work on the site so far and also thank you, i am one of many who very much appreciate your hard work.

I wondered wether or not it might be a neat idea to include a search button under the forum section of the drop down menu tab? This might encourage users to actually search the Forums for pre existing threads rather than create duplicate discussions.

Much love,

Jody

im literally spending 1 hour now to defeat the boss, but my "opponent" is just to stupid to know what to do and alays goes in at 60 hps instead of 1 shooting him

So last year around this time (6/11) there was an event called Taverns of Time. As a quick overview it featured about 30 unique Tavern Brawl exclusive cards. Most of it revolved around the Caverns of Time scenario from world of warcraft.

Some of the stuff from taverns of time is complementing stuff added in rise of shadows. Possibility Seeker was a 4 mana 4/5 shuffle your hand into your deck draw that many cards. Warlock has Plot Twist which is basically the same effect but as a spell. Cavern Dreamer adds a 2 or less mana cost spell to your hand at the end of turn. It was introduced in an era where mages were playing mostly 5+ mana spells. Right now we have cyclone mage instead which is pretty much the polar opposite. Fatecleaver seems like an interesting, and extreme, counter to Pogo rogue although the tavern set also introduced infinite minions with similar properties. Also noteworthy was that there were two named wow characters: Chromie and Murozond.

So if Rise of the Mechs is an event this year that focuses on the second set of last year. Was taverns of time a cheeky way to hint at the second set of this year from last year?

We got no new tribes since Un'goro and I think it would be nice to have new ones. Lets speculate what tribes should be added to Hearthstone and what we may see in the future

I can see three potential tribes

1) Plants. We have tons of plants in druid as well as several neutral plants.
2) Oozes (there are quite a fey slimes\oozes in wild, including stuff that generates slimes\oozes. Standard currently has 4 (acdic\underbelly ooze, floop, 1\1 token generated by the 2/4 rogue mech) 
3) Ghosts (There are enough ghosts\spirits\phantoms\shades\wisp to make them a tribe. Cards like cursed castaway and arfus are a problem)

Your gamertag, nickname, whatever you want to call it. How did you land on yours?

Mine started out as a name for my main character in WoW. Warangel just seemed like an appropriate name for a retribution paladin. From there it became the name I use for pretty much all my gaming endeavors.

Anyone having luck against hunter? If so what decks?

seems like everyone is playing hunter right now and it feels super strong

I'm getting an "un even" permissions error code-thing, and although deck tracker is loading up it will not sync with my game to take any new data, also the overlay is broken. basically nothing is working. 

I have tried doing what it says in the error msg and it doesn't work. could it be linked to the new patch, as it was working fine before that I'm sure. I don't like playing without the overlay, so hopefully I can at least get in keeper working again. will in keeper be gone when Hearthpwn goes down as well does anyone know, please? 

This is just a place to upload my own card and boss ideas. Feel free to comment if you want.

Avengers, Assemble!

This is the first card I made that caused some traction, both on r/CustomHearthstone and Hearthcards.net. It was made as a logial extreme to Recruit Warrior that the devs were trying to push for like two expansions. It's not supposed to be a serious card, more of a joke than anything.

Castleback

My highest rated card on Hearthcards.net is a simple Overkill minion. Use this to gain a bunch of Silver Hand Recruits. Unfortunately, as long as Duel! exists (is in Standard), a card like this probably won't exist.

Hi!

I have really been struggling lately to find a fun (not necessarily tier 1-2) deck to play both in wild and standard.
Somehow I seem to miss the key cards in all the netdecks available and my deck-brewing skills are not that great to be honest. I have tried though.
Decks I have tried but can't play:

• Zoolock (Standard) - Don't have Magic Carpet
• Even Warlock (wild) - Don't have Mountain Giant
• Reno Lock (wild) - Don't have Kazakus
• Darkest Hour Warlock (wild) - This I can build a version of but it literally sucks (or maybe I do?)
• SN1P SN4P Warlock (wild) - This seemed fun (stole it from kripp) but got mostly beaten up by Rouges

Any help? Suggestions?

I've tried to play a few games with token shaman after the buffs and I really like it! Token shaman got three positives from this patch: Strombringer cost reduction, Thunderhead Buff and the Snip Snap. I definitely have some toying around to do with the decklist but going for the mech-based list gives some synergies + the mechs seem to have best token producing cards atm.

I can post my decklist later but definately recommend trying out some token shaman madness!

I'm curious if anyone else has thought about this possibility. The earliest example I can think of is Kingsbane. Back in the day, having your opponent constantly re-equip a 13/4 lifesteal weapon for 1 mana felt bad, but honestly, I think it would be just as bad with a higher cost (also, the Leeching Poison nerf alleviates this a bit).

As I mention in the title, Dire Frenzy allows things like playing a 5/8 rhino and two 4/6 scalehides, for example, all in one turn for 9 mana, and having more copies of each to do it again.

I'm not sure if Immortal Prelate can be quite as oppressive, but it does allow some really wacky combos.

Consider this: in Dalaran Heist (where insanely OP combos are SUPPOSED to happen), the Bartender can offer you "Give a minion +4/+4, and increase its cost by 2."

I have noticed that a couple of minor things have changed since the last update which were not mentioned on the site (at least not to my knowledge). 

first of all, they have added another set filter. right now it will show you all the buffed cards as well as snip-snap, and I am guessing it will show nerfed cards, HoFed cards, and other such stuff in the future.

also when building a deck you can now exceed 30 cards, you can not play a deck with more than thirty, but you can add as many cards as you like while building it. and when you add whizbang/zayle it will not automatically remove all the cards and finish the deck, it will just change the maximum number of cards too (1) until you remove them. 

I though these changes were neat, and I had no idea about them until after I had discovered them on my own. and as far as I know, Blizzard has not mentioned these changes anywhere. 

the cost of her hero power is now 3 (from 2) and it shows in red.. did you guys notice any other nerf/changes to bosses that got nerfed/buffed?

Hello!

I see there isn't one available currently, but I believe it'd be great to have forum specific search features, a good example would be in this forum area to be able to search for specific ideas already mentioned so we don't suggest the same ones over and over :)

Thank you!

I want to craft up Mech Paladin, since it's been a deck that I've been interested since Boomsday, and now that it's pretty good, I feel like it's prime time to craft it. The problem is, I'm missing the two epics: Prismatic Lens and Glowstone Technician, and I (currently) only have 1000 dust. Is it better to go for 2 of either, or 1 of both? Since with the Glowstone Technician buffs, it's now a pretty strong handbuff card, without even losing too much tempo. However, Prismatic Lens provides some much needed draw for the deck, and with all the cheap spells it can reduce the cost of minions you draw. What should I craft, and what are some potential replacements I can use until I get the cards? 

P.s. Also no, I'm not going to spend my dust elsewhere, so don't reply with "the deck is bad just craft token druid 4Head" please.

So I have changed my mind about aggro game play. I have been playing mono-red in arena and its giving me a different perspective from aggro in hearthstone. The reason I am playing aggro is because it was a very easy deck to craft with out too many resources and it performs really well. I have to say that the interactions are not too complicated but do you have to be careful with what you play and when. Mono-Red is not just Smorc.

In hearthstone I am always annoyed by aggro game play, however I have a lot of resources so I don't have to resort to it. When new players its a great choice to play cheap aggro decks.  With that in mind I think having cheap aggro decks its actually healthy for the game. To allow new players to come and experience with out too much commitment.

The block system in arena is very interesting and interactive. Would be great to be able to force some minions to block (not just taunt.) like spells or abilities that enable taunt like effect on certain minions.

tl;dr: 1. Omit needless words from the top of all pages keeping username and add our avatars. 2. Take the information from number one and add that to member page along with a button that shows a list of our posts. 3. Add filter to find decks that use a given card (Hearthpwn's "Contains". 4. Celebrate artists of card art. 5. Is Gamepedia's website going to stop? (sister website of Hearthpwn).

• Tell us what you love about the site.
• I recently visited the card page for Deathwing, Dragonlord and I noticed that on the top of the page there was a banner for Whispers of the Old Gods. It was so well done that I kind of overlooked it. So I started looking at other cards and even Wilfred Fizzlebang has a banner celebrating the card set where this card came from. I wanted to say that design choice looks really nice.
• I love that you provide the font choice Helvetica.
• I love how the moderators respawn super quickly. It feels like a small community even though I am pretty sure this site is growing in popularity.

• Give us details on the things you hate.
• I can't change the text color back to the original/default color using the text color options
  • This is the original color. This is white. This is gray. This is medium gray. I can't customize the color nor do I really care.
  • I hate that I can't really keep track of my posts. I think there should be a link to my posts on my member's page just like there is a threads box.
  • The very top heading looks awkward: Hey, ArcticFox! [Profile] [Manage] Sign Out]
    • I like where it says my name but that's it. If you want to keep the "Hey," so be it but the rest is awkward and probably should be revisited in the future. "Profile" is [bad] redundancy.  "Profile" and "Manage" should not be the third word on every page on this website. It simply is not that important. So if you hid those two options the top of the page would read "Hey, ArcticFox Sign Out" and perhaps some people might feel that I should sign out (Kappa) but that probably is not the best heading for this website which is why "Sign Out" should be hidden as well. It is nice to see my avatar which I selected and I think it should appear to the left or above my username.
• Think you have an idea to make something better? Tell us!
  • Box up the headings "Out of Cards Beta," "Decks," "Cards," "Deckbuilder," "Expansions," "Guides," "Forums" and use some kind of image or icon. It would reinforce the idea that the user can click directly on them.
• Provide us with new ideas that you'd like to see us implement to make HearthStation even better.
  • I would like to Filter your list of decks by cards or "Contains." When I get a new legendary card I will want to search up the best decks that include that card and a search option similar to Hearthpwn would be appreciated. I only know that there is not a single deck that uses Wilfred Fizzlebang because I visited the card page and the "Top Decks" section was completely missing. 
  • Celebrate Artists of Cards:
    • Provide the name of the artist of each card in their respected card home page. This might be easier while Hearthpwn is still up. I wouldn't have known that Alex Horley did the art for Deathwing, Dragonlord had hearthpwn not included that information.
    • Have an artist area similiar to https://hearthstone.gamepedia.com/Alex_Horley#Credits_and_debug_cards
      • On a side note is Gamepedia stopping their services too as their Hearthstone section is called Hearthpwn? If they are closing shop there might be a lot of useful information that will be leaving the internet. Information like when certain expansions were released to help with my own personal predictions of future expansions.

What about adding a sticky post to this board, so people can see what already has been suggested, is in work or has been rejected?

Also a notification symbol, which tells you if someone has answered to a topic you have been active, or which you're watching.

Cheers

Visit the Out of Cards Card Back Gallery!

Due to HearthPwn shutting down soon, I have moved this guide here on this forum. Out of Cards does not seem to have a Hearthstone Card Back Gallery Page or Guide that I can find on their website. I hope the Admins at Out of Cards will see this post but for now I hope this will help you all on how to get any missing card back in your collection. I do keep this link updated whenever a new card back is revealed. Below is the original post from HearthPwn...

(I don't know why HearthPwn haven't been updating their Card Back Gallery page.)

But if anyone is interested in seeing the "ENTIRE CARD BACK SET" and how to get them, I have a personal collection that everyone can look at, on GoogleDrive, at the following link...

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1zyiCo83uYzkPA8m6qGQfhFBXLyzGKieN_35HC-zxUDo

Some are not as rendered as good as HearthPwn does it but the whole card back collection is there, I keep this link up to date.

Entire Card Back Set - Last Updated: June 3rd, 2019

Currently there are 118 card backs ever revealed. The document has a blue number on top of each card back representing the order of when the card back was announced (not the order it was added to the game), then card back image, then name of the card back, then how to get the card back, then the card back flavor text and then lastly if the card back can still be obtainable or not.

Also send an in-game friend request if you like too, my battle tag ID will show up on top. I'm a big card back collector but I'm also a casual player so I do not have every card back because I get stuck at curtain game modes/adventures or has never been to any official Blizzard esport events.

Hey guys,

for a few days (almost two weeks now), I started playing Hearthstone actively. However, I am kind of confused by the amount of archetypes for decks.

So far I managed to achieve rank 8 by using some deck I found online (Token Druid). I'd love to be able to create my own decks and understand some of the basics of the game. Anyone here that could recommend me a source to catch up on all required information?

Cheers

Hey guys,

please, please, please try to create a software like Innkeeper, so I can sync my cards with your website and based on which cards I already own, the price to create a new deck is automatically adjusted and displays not only the total price on dust, but also the individually calculated price of dust which I do require to complete the decks.

Also if you plan on adding some premium features to the website, based on some subscription model, I'd probably purchase it, if I know it goes into development.

If you need help with some programming, I might just be a CS student, but I am willing to help as much as I can, experience is given in C, C++, ASM, Java and basic stuff in JS/Webstuff.

Cheers
