The green glow around the arena just signifies there's a special event going on, namely dual class arena-ing. It's there every time you enter the main screen.
I assume the update was a bugfix of some kind.
He didn't break any rule that Blizzard has been able to cite so far. The only thing they have pointed towards is a catchall clause in the contract that allows blizzard to dismiss any player for pretty much any reason, …
Quote From MurlocAggroB Don't be ridiculous. China censorship does not care about sexualized characters or gore. Have you seen Chinese games? They changed Secretkeeper because it was literally an ass, and that's dumb. Why do you think …
Quote From Avalon Quote From helenwills The eight mana slot has been the sweet spot for evolves and such for ages, but this is probably one of the strongest pools ever. I say probably only because …
Exactly. What they should have done is change the rules going forward, adding a specific rule against political statements, and maybe, MAYBE give blitzchung a warning. After all, he broke no rule that Blizzard can cite beyond the "we can …
Quote From frenzy Hi
Anyone able to explain how to use Lock and Load well? Seems like quite a risky card. You need a lot of mana and luck to wait out for some RNG? And you …

Quote From LyraSilvertongue Or, more likely, they waited or were told to hold off reacting the exact same way because they saw all of the reactions they were seeing from the community, inside and out.

Quote From RavenSunHS There must be a rule or a principle of neutrality, simply because it would be utter chaos otherwise, in an international environment. It's called common sense, and it doesn't need to be written.

Quote From RavenSunHS Brack, in his post (in the news), mentions "rules" that Blitzchung agreed to upon participation.
And inconsistency of rule application does not imply the rule is wrong, nor that ALL its applications are wrong.

Quote From RavenSunHS Blitzchung broke the "no politics rule" and i don't need to prove it.
