When Basic Cards Rotate

Quote From AngryShuckie

Since you're a fellow shuckle fan you may be interested to hear I prepend it with 'angry' for a reason very close to the present discussion: an angry shuckle simply …

New Neutral Minion - Southsea Captain
Quote From Brandon

Hmmm... The fact that [card]Southsea Captain[/card] remains might hint towards some more pirate cards printed this year? Probably for rogue if i had to guess. Warrior already got the additional pirate stuff last year. Actually …

When Basic Cards Rotate
Quote From Thonson

Also, off topic. But I'm sure you've seen this!

Of course! With eviolite around I suspect they cannot actually give shuckle an evolution. Could you imagine it with 50% higher defenses? …

Thanks for ruining my day with a dose of reality and proper reading comprehension! LOL Also, I love your profile picture. If you're going to be named after the best Pokémon of all time (indisputable, …

Okay, I definitely read that wrong then. And to be quite honest, if they are not disenchantable I am going to be a little mad!  I mean, I get before when they were evergreen in …

Quote From Thonson

Frosty, they should be disenchantable seeing as the part you quoted says in it that they will be craftable and disenchantable. I hadn’t seen the tweet regarding them being free of rarity, mostly because I …

Cydonianknight's Custom Core Set - Hearthstone Fan Community Spotlight

Triggering at the start of a turn is functionally the same thing as triggering at the end of your opponent's turn in Hearthstone, and we recently had both [card]Plagiarize[/card] and [card]Rigged Faire Game[/card] trigger then. Granted neither of them affect …

Reminder: Last Chance to Buy the Gladiator Valeera Skin & 5 Rogue Packs

It seems we are of equal minds (at least with Even Cannon Rogue... I've never gotten on well with Discolock, though I suppose [card]High Priestess Jeklik[/card] was the card that came closest to making me enjoy it). Truth be told …

Reminder: Last Chance to Buy the Gladiator Valeera Skin & 5 Rogue Packs

I'm not new to broadside decks myself, I even crafted double golden

[cardimg gold]Cannon Barrage[/cardimg]

back in Rumble to show my devotion to it (I mean look at it, it's easily one of the best animations in the …

Reminder: Last Chance to Buy the Gladiator Valeera Skin & 5 Rogue Packs

"No weaknesses" is a bit of a stretch, but whatever. If it makes you feel any better about the class, I just spent ages fulfilling the dream of shooting 13 canons in 1 turn with a deck that uses [card]Togwaggle's …

Dean Ayala's Community Q&A #8 - Social Features, Future of Shaman, Charge Combos, Top Legend Rewards, Pre-Release

Regarding zoo, I think his point is not that they don't have good 1-2 drops, but rather that they are always close to the threshold where it becomes a problem. Perhaps that was ensured by always having both [card]Flame Imp[/card] …

Quote From dapperdog

1. Hunters can't heal or clear boards. And incidentally they can't draw cards neither. Now that most of the aggro cards from hunter will be purged from standard, its really time for hunter to actually …

'Warcraft III'-themed Expansion
Quote From Pies
Quote From AngryShuckie

How about flipping the whole effect around and making the grunt be a 2 mana 2/2 with an effect like: "Has +2 health if you have less than 5 mana"? …

'Warcraft III'-themed Expansion
Quote From Pies

[quote from="AngryShuckie"]I guess the take-home message is that if you want to make powerful minions, always stick within vanilla stats but give them interesting/powerful effects.[/quote]

Makes sense. This is sort of where it gets …

New Warrior Weapon - Fiery War Axe
Quote From Hydrafrog

Ole' reliable here. Wasn't the cost supposed to be reduced though?

Only in spirit. 2 mana Fiery War Axe is possible again via [card]Bloodsail Deckhand[/card], but the base card is staying at …

Expanded Magic Types - Good or Bad?

Coming from goodness knows how many hours of playing Pokemon over my lifetime, the idea of (spell-)type match-ups is as obvious and natural to me as the existence of spells and minions to begin with. That said, I don't think …

'Warcraft III'-themed Expansion
Quote From Pies

Am I overvaluing the mechanics on these cards? What exactly makes mine so overwhelmingly better than these? Ultimately I don't really feel right about nerfing them without first better understanding their standing with Standard cards.

Book of Heroes Valeera & Gladiator Valeera Bundle is Now Live! Earn 1 Free Rogue Card Pack

I have to say, not including a fight against Onyxia was a bold choice, given it was the culmination of the first 4 fights.

Not including Med'an was... a less contentious choice.

As for the surprise Uncrowned fight: …

How is Rogue Going to Perform in Hearthstone's Year of the Gryphon? Core Set Review

Valeera can finally say goodbye to class AoE forever, but I'm looking forward to [card]Blademaster Samuro[/card] + [card]Plague Scientist[/card]* for a surprise 1-sided full board clear.

* Note for the author: plague scientist was actually brought back from the …

How is Mage Going to Perform in Hearthstone's Year of the Gryphon? Core Set Review

What good would there be in creating an entire blitz mode? It would just be like a normal meta but where any combo, control or value deck is suppressed because they need the time to think turns through. The goofy …
