Hearthstone's Wailing Caverns Inspired Standard Ladder Decks to Try Out - Top Picks from Legend Players

No, I don't think anyone is telling you that. Quite aside from the fact we haven't fully recovered from mage's recent bs - so there isn't much call for mage's "existing stuff" to be supported - there's still close to …

Hearthstone's Wailing Caverns Mini-Set Releases Today - Here's Everything You Need to Know

In fairness, they didn't promise anything about the timing of the Mercs. mode. True, it had been listed as a 'new game mode' in both the Year of the Phoenix and Gryphon schedules, but all direct mention of the mode …

Is overload a good keyword?

I have to agree that overload cards are constrained to a fine line between weak and broken, entirely because cheating things out early always makes them much more powerful even if you have to pay more for them overall (turn …

Is overload a good keyword?

Prompted by a recent discussion, I want to discuss the overload mechanic in all its glory. Given we're 7 years into the game, and shaman is the current target of 'the class is weak' memes, it's high time I actually …

Forged in the Barrens Mini Set Predictions - What Could Hearthstone's Next Cards Bring?

[card]Lava Burst[/card]'s overload downside is that it is rubbish as removal. That's honestly a pretty neat feature of the overload mechanic since it gives the devs some control over which archetypes a card is made for, without taking too much …

Forged in the Barrens Mini Set Predictions - What Could Hearthstone's Next Cards Bring?
Quote From dapperdog

Someone should make a thread on this because I do think this is a topic that deserves greater discussion, but I think its simple enough to just ask the question: Can we design an overload …

Forged in the Barrens Mini Set Predictions - What Could Hearthstone's Next Cards Bring?

They DM Races had dual class cards, so the 30 class cards meant 4 cards for each class, despite 30/10 = 3 per class. So it's 3 per class unless dual-class stuff messes with the maths.

Oh, and in case the devs are reading, heres a tip assuming you've been avoiding reddit the whole of this and last week. OVERLOAD = BAD. Seriously, why is druid able to cheat mana without …

Magni Bronzebeard, Alternate Warrior Hero Skin, Returns to the Hearthstone Shop

At this point both Kadgar and Magni are neutral. They've got bigger things to worry about than the petty squabbles between the Horde and Alliance.

Banana Rogue Budget Deck List & Guide - Hearthstone Budget Deck Breakdown

Ahh, Banana Rogue. It's been a while since I put one of those together (I definitely don't have series of theme decks telling the story of Sergeant Sally bringing down Gallywix's banana company stored on this site...).

I agree …

Ben Brode Talks About Hearthstone's Original Heroes - Hemet Nesingwary, Edwin VanCleef, & Cho'Gall Were All Heroes

Thinking about it some more, I guess there's a important distinction between 'consistent' and 'contradictory' traits.

A consistent trait would be something like poisons for Valeera: she doesn't use them in the lore (or on her hero portraits), but …

Ben Brode Talks About Hearthstone's Original Heroes - Hemet Nesingwary, Edwin VanCleef, & Cho'Gall Were All Heroes

In fairness, I think it is more important for the hero art to fit the theme of the class as it is in HS than to fit the lore of WoW, just due to proximity. It would feel weird to

Diamond Cards We'd Love to See From Hearthstone's First Two Years

I guess they can aim to cover the Explorers and EVIL members incrementally since many of them are main characters in their own sets. If they are happy to make diamond hero cards, then all of Boom, Togwaggle, Hagatha, Elise …

Diamond Cards We'd Love to See From Hearthstone's First Two Years

A cool feature of golden cards is that they generate more golden cards. Obviously this won't translate over to diamond cards since diamond copies won't exist, except maybe in limited cases like [card]Thaddius[/card] or [card]Boom Bot[/card]s. So I suspect they'll …

Alternate Spelling - Card Design Competition Discussion Thread

In the case of Nature Warrior spells vs Shadow Paladin spells, there are two factors at play here: The flavor of the class as a whole, and the total number of spell cards in …

Blizzard Thinks Paladin Remains Stronger Than They'd Like After the Latest Hearthstone Balance Changes

That would be a good solution, though I would refine it further by making it say "It costs 0 this turn." I think it truly would kill the card if it permanently cost 0, especially as restricting it to …

Blizzard Thinks Paladin Remains Stronger Than They'd Like After the Latest Hearthstone Balance Changes

There aren't many cases where you would want your 9 mana spell (which is presumably very powerful in its own right else you wouldn't run it) to turn into a Libram of Hope which heals a random target.

I'm …

Would You Want to See Hearthstone's Dungeon Run Updated With New Cards & Bosses? Game Designer Matt London Asks

Agreed on all fronts. I could write an essay about why Dalaran Heist is the best version of the Dungeon Run formula. There's a degree of subjectivity on that when comparing to Monster Hunt, Rumble Run and Tombs of Terror …
