All Into the Emerald Dream Card Reveals for March 04 - Day 9 [Finished]

As worded, wouldn't this also activate if it was shuffled into your deck and then redrawn? I guess they chose to be overly clear, rather than concise in this case.

All Into the Emerald Dream Card Reveals for February 20 - Day 1 [Finished]

A dev confirmed to Zeddy that the card will kill any Ysera, no matter its health. Pretty funny, since neither 5 nor 10 damage would usually kill Ysera.

All Dr. Boom's Incredible Inventions Day 1 Hearthstone Card Reveals - May 7

Delayed Product might be the most cursed card artwork we've seen yet. Is that unicorn being... slowly liquified?

Hearthstone's 10th Anniversary, Negative Player Reception, And Where We Go From Here

While all of the monetary player gouging is certainly concerning, it's really the dire state of the actual card game that is making me consider quitting, as someone who has been playing since the last wave of closed beta. Hearthstone …

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 10 Hearthstone Card Reveals - March 1

The flavor for [card]Fancy Packaging[/card] is so good - the divine shield being a representation of the box you keep a figure in, to keep the figure/minion untouched.

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 7 Hearthstone Card Reveals - February 27

Day 111 of reveals, eh? This is gonna be a big set.

I see [card]Nostalgic Clown[/card] fitting into a lot of non-aggro decks with the lower power level following rotation. It's not flashy, but a solid midrange filler card.

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 6 Hearthstone Card Reveals - February 26

Mmm. You would think the point is that you're supposed to cheat it out someway, but then you don't get the mini version in your hand. Perhaps there's some synergy with a card yet revealed that lowers the highest cost …

Patch 28.6.2 Launches Today With Changes To Standard And Battlegrounds

[quote from="PlayHearthstone"]We want to experiment with smaller buffs across several cards that are rotating out of Standard soon—especially in classes that are currently weaker—to see if we can give them one last hurrah. Our hope is that players …

Hearthstone Developers Provide Insights into the Pegasus Core Set

Why would I make something so innocuous up? It's possible I'm misremembering, certainly. Looking at old threads when the announcement happened, Odd Shaman was the biggest Shaman archetype, so it was definitely a nerf in that specific deck. Maybe that's …

Hearthstone Developers Provide Insights into the Pegasus Core Set

That was usually the totem you most wanted to roll as Shaman way back, to hit higher breakpoints with [card]Lightning Bolt[/card] or [card]Lightning Storm[/card]. There was a reason most people referred to the replacement with [card]Strength Totem[/card] as a nerf.

Delve Into Deepholm Reveals - Day 4

It's a shame we no longer get Solo Adventures of any kind. I gather that this is supposed to be the first meeting of the League of Explorers, but you don't feel it without some kind of story-based content.

Delve Into Deepholm Reveals - Day 1

My prediction for the 10th anniversary set is that we're going to get the default heroes as game-changing Legendaries - Jaina, Thrall etc. In earlier years, it was considered off-limits for Heroes to also be minions; [card]Illidan Stormrage[/card] was even …

You can also get 10 free burst damage with [card]The Garden's Grace[/card], and very consistenly get three 0-mana legendaries with [card]The Countess[/card].

I don't think the card is "broken", but it's very possible that Team 5 have stats that …

Is Hearthstone's Twist Format a Failure?

Much as with Classic, I enjoyed my time with Twist for about a month. It was fun to play with old cards, and I didn't even mind too much that there were only about four meta decks - knowing your …

All Day 5 Card Reveals for Hearthstone's Fall of Ulduar Mini-Set

It is part of Mage's class identity though, and the HS team have repeatedly said that Casino Mage-style decks tend to be some of the most popular to play, regardless of the win rate being good or bad. So it's …

All Day 8 Card Reveals for Hearthstone's TITANS Expansion

While the wording is weird, I think the deathrattle seems correct - if you don't play the card(s) in time, they get taken from your hand and put into your opponent's. So unless you mana cheat this guy somehow, you …

Hearthstone Esports to Return to Twitch This Year, Will Viewership Improve? Prizing Decreased

[Updated] Hearthstone's Winter Veil 2022 Holiday Event - Free Packs, Lore, and the Tinker Town Battlegrounds Hero Skins

I don't play Battlegrounds anymore, but it's free, so I don't see any reason to complain about them showing up as event rewards. You still get three packs for Standard. It's not as if they would instead be Hero portraits …
