Generally* Team 5 doesn't nerf cards from the latest expansion unless they super oppressive and popular like Astalor. If concoctions are still OP come next expansion, they'll probably be hit. My only hope for Shadowstep is that it's banished to wild come the core set 2023 update. Also if you look at HSreplay, Wildpaw Gnoll and Sinstone Graveyard are still in the top 10 most played cards.
While I'm fine with these cards changes, I'm getting a feeling that Team 5 are buffing more cards than previously, just to keep up with the power creep in the game. Wouldn't a mass nerf be more beneficial to the game than buffing underperforming cards?
Like, I'd be scared at what the game will look like 5 years from now where they buff cards like Secret Passage or Wildpaw Gnoll coz they'll be considered "too weak"
Honestly I could see this happening after the 2022 HS World Championship was live at the same time as the Soccer World Cup. I actively watched every masters/GM on youtube in 2022 and the viewer numbers were averaging at about 3k - 12k on the main HS channel. Let's hope the move back to Twitch increases viewership again
This is probably going to be a bit controversial but I'm just generally curious.
Seeing as the Lunar new year is mainly marketed towards eastern countries, would blizzard remove the event in the future seeing as Blizzard games are getting removed from China soon?
While this card back definitely looks edible and cute, I'm still patiently waiting for my coffee themed card back 🙃
OMG, we have a new mechanic? 😲
Nah, I'm just being silly for a typo 🙃
Asvedon, also has Taunt now too

Also noticed this, you get a coin when using HP, pretty broken combo
Anyone figure out the best blessing yet? I'd bet my money on either Horse or Pig coz mana cheat

I learnt the hard way that DK corpse cards are pretty OP in this brawl.
Other classes can't even use cards like Corpse Explosion, they just not playable at all
I know a certain salty content creator will be very happy with this change
I can confidently say that at least 1 rogue card will be nerfed 🙃

There was the Thunder king bundle in 2019 used to add additional money to the prize pool: https://www.hearthstonetopdecks.com/masters-bundle-available-thunder-king-shaman-hero-portrait-card-back-20-packs-for-19-99/
Maybe Blizzard is too greedy to try this again, which is a bummer coz it can work
Wonder how Prince Renathal works in the brawl, haven't tried him out yet
Yea but now with the new Scamiseum we know Blizzard is still greedy for money. Lets hope they keep these events in future

Oh yay! Scamiseum is back and it's more scam than ever
Not sure if this is mentioned somewhere, but is the "quest/reward" system removed from the game with the new season?
Specifically the Castle Nathria mechanic where you have to complete the quest in game to get rewards like The Smoking Gun
Doubt Blizzard would release that information, especially if it tanked
Ah that was a pretty hilarious hint now that I know the answer 🤣 well played!
Great thanks!
I require some direction on the following HS hint: "What do you mean I can't invite Tirion or Bolvar to my Winter Veil party?"
Your reward will be served cold
