I'm very surprised by the Il'gynoth nerf, that deck is so difficult to play, it requires a high skill cap which makes it a T2 deck on average. OTK DH was never a problem anyway and I usually applaud opponents who manage to get the OTK off
I'm actually quite surprised at how the meta is still evolving. I refreshed HSreplay and saw warrior and rogue are in the dumpster (probably coz some players are still learning the bleed deck for rogue).
And finally, after 4 year, Blizzard has made hand buff paladin actually viable and a T1 deck. Wouldn't be surprised to see Alliance Bannerman targeted along with some non-interactive stuff from Mage and Warlock.
I'm glad Flux got gifts again, even through all the on-going blizzard drama, he still managed a very cool giveaway and ofc the reveal season. That tiny sword is so adorable!
Yea I agree with Voidtouched Attendant very good with Mind Tether and Psyfiend. Also got a Bag of Coins haha, and also got the stormwind achievement so if you can't win with shadow priest, least we can complete the achievement in duels
What's the point. Priest has been successfully deleted from the game (win rate at 39.8% at the time of writing) and any minion based decks are useless against Quest Mage and Warlock which run rampant at the low levels of standard. I even battled to finish my "Win 5 games in ranked" quest coz archetypes like shadow priest, big warriors and elwynn boar memes just get rekt. Worst experience I've had in a new meta. But it's fine, there is D3 and POE to play to till blizzard fix this sh!t
After opening the Final Showdown in packs, I can confirm it's one of the more challenging quests to complete compared to others. Often times you're waiting till turn 4 to draw cards and even then its easy to mess up and your progress is reset to zero
Got to 151 without tavern pass at 7995 gold (Yes Blizzard rigged it so I couldn't get 80 packs). I have missed a bunch of weekly and daily quests coz Hearthstone can't be the only game I play 🙃
I think this was an inevitable decision the stakeholders had to make due to the bad PR and lawsuit. After the old Blizzcon video that resurfaced and hearsay that Brack didn't handle harassment claims properly, he had to leave.
Considering 40% of the top 10 rated cards in the community compendium are Shaman cards, we'll probably see more Shamanstone once the meta settles. Elemental shaman will probably move more towards midrange with the help of Canal Slogger and Granite Forgeborn
The demon showcased in Final Showdown is actually Anetheron and remember in Kurtrus' Book of Merc storyline, he was trying to find Tamsin Roame to stop her from summoning him
Just a Huge Shoutout to Echo and the rest of the content squad for putting together all these questline and card reviews. I haven't even gotten through all of them yet! I can see a lot of work (and math) went into creating these guides. It just goes to show how dedicated you guys are to this site and the game. Shows real passion and care, which certain other sites 👀 lack
Also thanks for featuring my deck and hope everyone's theorycrafting pays off today on launch!
Anyone remember Sparring Partner? That's this guy except Stockades Guard targets friendly minions only. Very nice flexible control and anti-aggro 1 drop. We'll definitely be seeing him a lot
Wonder why this SI7 minion is neutral. Regardless, it's alright, effectively becoming a 1 mana 2/2 stealth. Will see play in quest rogue and arena but that's it

You forgot to mention dragon chapter
Feels like a lot of dev work required from multiple teams for a "limited-time change"

Well this is strange... I'm sure everyone will receive this, but feels like something is missing...

How come there's only one Persistent Peddler? I'm assuming it's just used for trading and never actually played

Damn, I want to know what quest DH you've been playing. I've never had that dream of finishing the quest so early

Thanks for the deck lists! I know my F2P account will definitely be using some of these as I only managed to hoard 2100 gold there

Same same for this flavor text for Entitled Customer. Much better than Blizzard's one
