You might as well just rub that 'tradeable' keyword out of sight because what fool will ever trade this for a card when its literally the one thing shaman has been screaming for since Whispers …

I know it's not Warcraft canon, so I wasn't being super serious. But still, maybe dragging in someone 20 years gone is a bit awkward when the year is trying to mirror the early days of WoW at least reasonably …

Hmm, I guess it fits that Blizz would mess up the time they advertise a card showing a character who should have died long before the events of the expansion. Maintaining a consistent timeline never was Team 5's strong suit.

I've gotta be honest, when they hyped up the priest questline I was expecting something a little more creative than "play on curve -> insta win".

I'm sure the deck building side to it is actually reasonably interesting, but …

Quote From Live4vrRdieTryn

It's arguable that I use online gaming as an outlet for the more immature sides of myself. I work in an industry where I have to be patient and responsible with ppl who are often …

Quote From Live4vrRdieTryn

1) There is a huge difference between BMing in online games and BMing in real life. I'm actually the nicest person you'd ever meet who is even soft and practical when other ppl are out …

Thumbs up on revisiting [card]Razorpetal[/card]s and making them meaningful. [card]Razorpetal Lasher[/card] was an OK card, but Blizz wasted the opportunity to make razorpetals an archetype-defining mechanic back in Un'Goro.

Quote From Live4vrRdieTryn

Fun is for healthy ppl.

That depends entirely on the nature of the fun. When you have fun at the expense of others, that's not healthy unless its with a close friend/family …

I think quests are a fundamentally slow design, but that's OK. They've worked fine in the past (I don't agree with Aesan that they have generally been unsuccessful). The real issue is not that there is a category of decks …

Quote From YourPrivateNightmare

Now we've returned to Quests that are somehow even slower than Uldum, require multiple conditions that give you, let's be honest, laughable mini-rewards and still make you play a 5-cost card that doesn't immediately impact …

I agree that there's a discussion to be had over whether it is fighting for the same spot as Armor Vendor, especially in the current iterations of warlock.

I'm not sure what the Questline deck will look like in …

Quote From dapperdog

There's also the fact that this card is practically useless later on in the game when minions tend to have higher health, or your opponent can play around this card by simply playing no minions.

…

I have pondered whether changing [card]Renew[/card] to discover a minion instead of a spell would be better. Changing its cost to 2 wouldn't be that big a deal in long games where priest feels horrible to play against, but changing …

We kept Basic cards when they moved to Legacy, so the precedent is that we keep them. I could imagine new players needing to craft them if they start playing after they have already left Core though.

The surprise MVP for me was [card]Healing Totem[/card], which always stops your minions from dying to Mini-Rag. (Note Rag does still gain attack when he reduces your minions to 0 health, but the totem brings them back to 1 health …

In fairness fireball isn't the gold standard for removal. Knockout is still weaker than (buffed) [card]Assassinate[/card], and the quality of warrior's removal is typically OK, so it being a bit worse than rogue's option looks about right to me.

Quote From AngryShuckie

If so, I'd expect them to start with the Witchwood heroes because there's only 4 of them

I doubt the Witchwood heroes would get ladder portraits, since …

Quote From 500cats

One thing that miffed me to no end regarding hero portraits was the they made a whole bunch of fully functional ones for the Year of the Dragon PvE content and then......... just never used …

Quote From MurlocAggroB

On the bright side, it's entirely possible that the third expansion's portrait will be Garona Halforcen. She had a weird cameo as the final boss in Xyrella's chapter, and (assuming the set is Alterac Valley) …

Quote From Ticomon

I think Mathias Shaw will be the rogue legendary

That's very likely. If not the devs have gone positively loopy!

He still could have been made into a hero portrait though...
