    I'm not sure if that's possible in this case. 

    Look, all the arrows in the red circles are supposed to take us to the last post of the thread they belong to. None of them does. We're being directed somewhere in the middle of those threads (which is especially annoying in lengthy discussions like Card Treasure Hunt). 

    Bug occurs on android with Samsung Internet and on desktop with Chrome for me.

    Genn Greymane? Its effect triggers at the start of the game, I guess that counts for early game. And it makes you pay "much less" for your Hero Power. The "stunted" part might be about the deck building restriction.

    I just wanted to point this out myself. Please fix!

    Leaving aside the issue itself for a moment, I'm very thankful for the staff to post this article. You must have known what will happen in the comments but you didn't shy away from it. The high moral standards of this whole page are a big reason for why I'm coming here every day and I'm proud to name myself a part of this community.

    As a matter of fact you do act based on likelihood all day. You fasten your seatbelt when you drive a car (hopefully) without ever having a serious accident. You take an umbrella when the weather forecast says there will be rain. Our whole lives are a constant evaluation of probabilities and then acting upon them. Each and every sane person does it because you're dead very soon if you don't. This is nothing else. Several factors strongly speak for the victim in this case, so acting against the offender is the reasonable thing to do as a community. Blizzard's suspension is well within their rights if it not even is their duty to act like that, if they want to live up to their very own code.

    I'm of the same opinion as OP an Tesuo. Bunnyhoppor already made it to Legend #1 with a Control Warlock list and the nerfs haven't even arrived yet. If I was a Control player, I'd play the hell out of this.

    Here's a slightly more creative approach. What if every class got their own Watch Post?

    It triggers at the start of your turn for synergies with Varden Dawngrasp and Snap Freeze (plus Shatter in Wild). Do you like this more than Green Rag?

    Feedback:

    Show Spoiler

    cydonianknight - Hushing Librarian is probably my favorite card so far. Great flavor, very well done! 

    Nirast - I prefer Headmaster's Arcane Focus. It's a quite cool mechanic, really nice idea. That said, I'm not a big fan of the art and the name of the card.

    DestroyerR - As I've already told you on Discord, it's a neat card. It rewards paying attention and I wouldn't mind having to keep track of the revealed cards in my head at all.

    linkblade - I really like it when you post goofy ideas :) Nice one!

    grumpymonk - I prefer the Arcane Watchtower. Very effective and very evil. Hits the Watch Post flavor spot on.

    Demon - Sheep Canon is the more interesting card and one of my two favourites so far. Really cool design. Minor "but": you should a) consider making this a Hunter card because it might end up very broken in Mage and Paladin (Librams!) and b) create a token if you can.

    Wailor - First of all, please add a bit of lore if you want us all to appreciate your card. I take your word for those guys being iconic but I have no idea who they are. That said, I think the lower Health version is a safer bet since the effect is super strong. It's also cooler to have three 3s on the card ;-)

    I'm still looking for art for a more creative idea, but I had to get this out of my head first. Inner Demon on a stick, kind of.

    Edit: The text misses "this turn". Thanks for the pointer, cydonianknight!

    So guess who has dusted his Deck of Lunacy when Barrens hit because the card is trash and the dust was needed for shiny new stuff?

    Having lots of fun with RavenSunHS's Even Mage in Wild. It's very versatile and able to adapt to your opponent's game plan. A big plus is that few people expect you to run this list (yet?).

    My personal highlight was a game against a Jade Druid. I'm running Primordial Glyph because I've dusted my golden Maiev and got a Frozen Clone from it that netted me two Ysera, Unleashed. My opponent was at 50 Armor during the mid game, but that doesn't count for much of you can't answer a Coldarra Drake and take 40 damage from pings the next turn. Super satisfying win!

    Here's the list:

    Good luck to the finalists! Looks like a rather polarizing week.

    Great guide, really well done! Can anyone tell me how good the deck is though? I like to try out new stuff and this looks like the ultimate Frenzy deck, but I'm missing no less than 3 legendaries (Rokara, Saurfang, Runthak)...

    Crabrider is my personal nr. 1 nerf prediction as well. Second place goes to Lord J. Control Warlock just got way too consistent with that infinite late game package and at least 2x Tickatus. My guess is Crabrider goes 1/3 so it can be removed by Flame Imp and friends, while Lord J. looses 4 points of weapon durability. Not sure if the latter is enough, but it's a start.

    Spring must really be around the corner with the temperatures on the rise again and Jaina forgetting her shirt. Thanks Flux!

    I have a Hunter list that still doesn't work. Will try the work around later

    I think I'm more or less in dapperdog's boat this time:

    Big preorder bundle = 85 Barrens packs (5 of them golden, nothing of note in there)

    Another 40 packs with gold = 125 Barrens packs total

    1 Priest pack and 6 Rogue packs from book of heros and Gladiator Valeera bundle

    Results were golden Cannonmaster Smythe and Barak Kodobane from the preorder, Death Speaker Blackthorn, Guff Runetotem, Tavish Stormpike, Cariel Roame, a golden Xyrella, Apothecary Helbrim, Scabbs Cutterbutter from a Rogue pack, Tamsin Roame and Blademaster Samuro which was basically a wildcard because I bought the Tavern Pass this time.

    Definitely a great opening, but all the wrong cards for me with the exception of Tavish and Scabbs. I day 1 crafted both Mage legendarys and might add what's need for the 12 angry orcs deck plus Kazakus.

    Friendly matches don't work either.
