A Letter From Flux - Looking Back on 2019, The 2020 Outlook, Out of Cards Premium

Is there an issue where the site sometimes doesn't recognise Patreon supporters? I became a supporter right at the end of November, and Patreon took my second payment on 1st January, more than 30 days after the first. Premium hasn't …

Hearthstone is Getting a Balance Patch - Changes Coming to Battlegrounds, Rogue, Warrior, and Galakrond Archetypes

Please explain why it costing 5 would destroy the card. Even at 5 I would expect it to be above the usual power level.

On a broader matter, I agree that something being part of class identity should allow …

Hearthstone is Getting a Balance Patch - Changes Coming to Battlegrounds, Rogue, Warrior, and Galakrond Archetypes

It is always a bit tricky to pin down the bigger problem when a new card comes out and does broken things with a card that has been perfectly fine for ages. In the case of [card]Aviana[/card] + [card]Kun the …

The 2019 Hearthstone Year in Review

"Blizzard pushed out another round of card nerfs for the year, this time focusing on nerfing previously buffed cards in the Boomsday Buff patch and some problematic cards, including one hellraiser from Wild, Barnes.

This was the first …

Favourite non-card games thread!

I am obliged to say Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim since that takes my top spot, but since that game needs no introduction, I'll give a shout-out to Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath. That game was almost criminally under-advertised when first released …

Card Nerf - Faceless Corruptor

It looks like a very small nerf, until they have to trade into a 5 health minion, which are a lot more common than minions with 6+ health. I have no doubt it will still be strong, but the nerf …

Standard Meta Report #15 - Fixing (Yet Another) Shaman Meta

Alongside other changes I could see them changing the 2/1 to a 1/2 (still with rush), which is a whole lot less effective at clearing minions. Not sure where the dust refunds would land with that but it feels like …

Hearthstone Balance Changes Confirmed For Next Week

I bucketed the Galakrond stuff into what I assumed their expectations to be too. I mean, you just look at it and everything is a great card by itself that activates overpowered cards. Then they had the cheek to give …

Hearthstone Balance Changes Confirmed For Next Week

The speed of it makes me suspect they released the set expecting shaman to be a problem, but thought they'd let the player-base confirm it first.

Murozond doesn't copy hero cards!

Tess does replay hero cards yes, so this sounds like a bug to me too. Probably one Blizz won't miss for long so I would expect to see it get fixed reasonably quickly.

Descent of Dragons is LIVE! Tyrande Available for Free, Sylvanas in the Shop

I have always been surprised this isn't explicitly said anywhere in the shop. Double clicking it has never been intuitive beyond something you inevitably try when you get frustrated at only getting 1 at a time.

DoD First Impressions Thread

I have mostly played with a slight refinement to the Galakrond rogue deck recipe, which looks like a solid starting point for a deck. I had a few clunky draws in the early game but lackeys are pretty good at …

Descent of Dragons Giveaway Results

Agreed. The way the giveaway worked was great (and I'm not just saying that because I got super lucky and won!). I have always been half-present in card discussions during reveal seasons, but never engaged quite so much as I …

About Tyrande's coming back and The value Blizzard gives older players( WARNING: SALT THREAD ! )

I said something similar to your opinion about the return of the Rag. card back and I'll say it again here: there is absolutely nothing special about the people who already own the Tyrande hero. There was no true effort …

Echo Mechanics Update - SN1P-SN4P, Sound the Bells! and Glinda Crowskin Refunds!

The other echo cards aren't being refunded because no one would have crafted them to be abused this way. The issue was never really that it was in principle possible to get 0-mana echo cards, but that you could build …

Sylvanas Windrunner is Coming Back to Hearthstone as a Hunter Hero

I see, and certainly appreciate how adding mech and elemental opened up more possibilities for underused existing cards.

The tricky part is finding a mechanic that distinguishes it from other tribes. I guess for forsaken you could play off …

Wild Packs Purchasable with Gold Next Week - Hearthstone's New In-Game Shop Info
Quote From YourPrivateNightmare

Wild packs are good for those who care. I hope they have distinct disclaimers so new players won't be confused.

Innkeeper: "If you make a wild deck, you can only use it …

Sylvanas Windrunner is Coming Back to Hearthstone as a Hunter Hero

I have never understood the desire for an undead tribe, especially when there is already an implicit association between undead and deathrattle (this has been diluted over time but certainly in Naxx people would have linked the two).

So, …

New Neutral Minion - Living Dragonbreath

Another tech card. It obviously won't be played unless the meta takes a very surprising turn, but it is nice that Blizz are putting all these tech cards out there so no one asks for them anymore.

New Neutral Minion - Evasive Chimaera
Quote From MurlocAggroB

Soooo... Evasive is becoming a keyword next expansion, yeah?

I reckon they named the 3 evasive cards just to mess with the people asking for the keyword. Somewhere at Second Dinner Ben …
