Nice one, Corrupt the Waters is correct! I must admit I didn't know about the part you edited in. Everything else was exactly right. "say" = battlecry, "the number of the beast" = 6, "elemental" = water.
I liked how you reasoned out what was already known and put it together. Well done and welcome to the thread, I'm looking forward to your riddle!
Fire Elemental? I think the specific number is 6 cause the number of the Beast is 666. Fire Elemental costs 6 and has 6 Attack, also its name fits perfectly with the first line's hint.
Nice one, you got that exactly right! The number you have to "say" is 6.
Neither of those. The riddle has nothing to do with flavor texts. I'm sorry, the reference to The Beast can only be solved if you know something about a special type of popculture. I should have known from custom card design that this usually backfires.
So here's a substantial hint for the first line: think of "elemental" like fire, water, wind, earth.
Alright I guess I'm gonna blow some dust and try out both decks. And I'll also try out to sneak in Ace Hunter Kreen because I really like that card and got a golden copy from the preorder bundle. Rush minions + Kreen might actually work out.
So the first round of (card) nerfs has arrived and I don't know how to react. I could get 3.200 dust plus some more from spare golden copies if I hit that disenchant button and I'd really like to craft a few cards... But surely those two can't be all, can they?
What do you think, are there more nerfs incoming? And if so, when do you expect them?
I'm sorry, I missed your guess as the thread was buried beneath new Runeterra cards. No, it's not Igneous Elemental. You are looking for a shaman card.
The possibilities how to do this are nearly limitless. As you know, I'm a huge fan of your Full Art concept, but from the answer you got on the reddit AMA, I don't think it will be implemented like you intended it. Nevertheless, the requirements could be close to what Blizzard will do, like card-related stuff you have to do to get a reward. This is also another chance for them to be a bit more generous with us. Like giving us (non-disenchantable) golden copies of cards instead of your full art versions as a reward. Examples: Destroy 1.000 Heros with Leeroy Jenkins for a golden copy, draw 2.000 cards with Acolyte of Pain for two golden copies, etc.
I know this is probably an unpopular opinion, but I'd be careful with Hero portraits. It would'nt make much sense to dish out lots of them since you can only play one at a time and there are only 10 Heros anyway. So while I'm all for continuing (and improving - new emotes!) the existing system after the 1.000 wins rewards by adding another portrait every 1.000 wins or so, this can't be THE big answer for the achievement system imho.
Basically, Blizzard should
a) reward playing the game
b) do so in a way that encourages you to play even more
c) at least partially let you show that off
d) not forget the longtime players
So yeah, card packs are fullfilling criterias a) and b) and rewarding class card packs is a cool idea. However, card packs are a very short-lived reward and I for one wish for something worthwile like golden cards or the new vanity cards as rewards. I would be perfectly fine if they were not disenchantable if they fear that would mess up their economy.
Having played a few games of Odd Rogue in Wild, I must say that Secret Passage is completely OP. Reducing the number of cards it draws wouldnt help much imho, this needs to be 2 or even 3 mana.
I've started out as an F2P about 5 years back and gradually began to spend money on the game after some time. It started with the Medivh skin and culminated in preordering both Scholomance bundles, something I thought I'd never do only months ago.
If these changes should happen, I'll never play a single game of standard again, switch to Wild for good and become F2P again.

But it's not yet the card you're looking for.
Congrats! I like that archetype, too. Would you mind sharing your list?

Sorry, but no. Again, The Beast is relevant, but not the HS card. Try to put it together with the second line!
No, but close.
Nope, it's not an elemental.
Man you got me on the brink of crafting the quest again. Maybe I'll dust my golden Lord Barov.

Hint: the Hearthstone card The Beast has nothing to do with the solution.
Thanks for sharing! Those are great to bring some of my decks up to date.
Im still missing Lazul for Thief Priest and maybe Sylvanas. Nice thing to do!
I'm rooting for the Full Art concept. Couldn't think of a better way to implement achievements. Nice work on everything else, too!

It's almost funny how the deck that needs the nerf hammer the most is literally 1:1 copied from the last reveal stream. Almost.

Works like a charm, thank you!
