New Warrior Spell - Burning Heart

Its 1 mana deal 3 damage to face.

Most of the time its single most utility is indeed to do just that. As to whether it'll see play outside highlander, probably not. Best chance is in dhunter where dealing …

New Rogue Weapon - Quick Pick

Its a fine card for what it is.

Probably more relevant to rogue that dhunter since rogue needs the draw more urgently than dhunter and a 2 mana draw 2 is handy.

New Warrior Location - Crimson Expanse

This card is basically here to save a minion from being removed.

So cards like [card]illidari inquisitor[/card] can be saved for the next turn and lose absolutely nothing in initiative.

But of course, the real power of this …

New Neutral Minion - Stone Drake

I love this card.

But hearthstone has moved beyond these things. Still, it is a taunt minion that cant be interacted with.

Dont think it'll make much impact but you got to respect the taunt and lifesteal at …

New Demon Hunter Minion - Shadestone Skulker

Its more relevant to rogue, since it allows poison rogue to essentially remove minions without sacrificing weapon swings. Plus, with enough durability you might scupper your opponent's plans to viper it, since they now have to get rid of this …

New Neutral Minion - Shale Spider

If youre playing an elemental deck this card is a shoo-in.

If youre not, then this card is trash.

So is viability is stuck to elemental decks. Have to respect it, but I dont think I'll be seeing …

New Demon Hunter Spell - Fel Fissure

Its great vs aggro assuming you're playing control, but its really never realistically a good AoE choice.

4 mana to deal 2 damage is bad enough. 2 damage really doesnt kill much nowadays. At most this card is a …

New Neutral Minion - Iridescent Gyreworm

At first I was thinking it might be an epic from a miniset that actually sees play and then I see what team5 did to cap it in its knee (not that it has any)

Being a deathrattle means …

New Warrior Minion - Deepminer Brann

I dont know what this will do but it'll be broken as fuck at some point and team5 would be forced to nerf and hand out apologies.

Only good thing is that this card is difficult to trigger (so …

New Neutral Minion - Maruut Stonebinder

It'll see play because its a highlander payoff.

But its not a very good one. There's just tons of elementals to discover so your range can go from [card]ragnaros the firelord[/card] to [card]bubbler[/card], and if all three are not …

New Neutral Minion - Therazane

So this is it? The long wait for Therazane only for her to end up like this?

Basically a stat monster, similar to [card]lor'themar theron[/card], except this only works with elementals and more crucially, this is a deathrattle. Essentially …

Hearthstone Duels is Being Removed From the Client in April 2024

Perhaps unsurprising. Duels have been in the rut for quite a time now, perhaps since they practically killed the bucket system and every game progressively gets greedier to the point that post 7 wins is almost always a value matchup.

Hearthstone Reveals All 23 Changes in a Massive Buff & Nerf Patch Ahead of Christmas

Here's my own comments on the changes;

- Changes to [card]barrel of sludge[/card] will not truly make a difference to sludgelock. The main problem here is really the fact that the entire archetype relies so much on two cards: …

Pick a Hand, Any Hand

Just go mill druid on this one.

Typical stuff. [card]Biology project[/card], [card]dew process[/card], and [card]naturalize[/card], [card]jade idol[/card]

[card]Reno, lone ranger[/card]. In case your opponent gets any ideas and plays mechacthun.

 

Funny thing is. Theres so …

Hearthstone's 28.0.3 Badlands Balance Patch Detailed - Card Nerfs, Card Changes, Battlegrounds Adjustments, & Bug Fixes

Its only a brilliant nerf if the idea is to keep its essential power level but disallowing a naked sharpshooter on 3 turn, which to be fair happens rarely anyway.

I think team5 wants to monitor this a bit …

Hearthstone's 28.0.3 Badlands Balance Patch Detailed - Card Nerfs, Card Changes, Battlegrounds Adjustments, & Bug Fixes

Well, we get some nerfs but surprisingly few changes, given that elemental shaman is just dead on arrival.

- There's only two possible changes to [card]blindeye sharpshooter[/card]. Either a mana increase to 4, or it gets the damage dealt …

Badlands Achievements

Its likely to be random. But I can confirm that he cant turn your golden cards gold so to get this achievement you'd need to have a deck of normal cards and lots of luck because he'll likely never survive …

What Will Become of The Azerite Snake and Excavate Warlock?

I think its sufficiently convoluted and slow enough in wild that it'll never realistically be a problem.

What Will Become of The Azerite Snake and Excavate Warlock?

The most intricate nerf would simply to turn this into a spell, making it impossible to bounce.

Unfortunately, if you cant reliably turn this into a win con theres simply no reason to actually want to play excavate warlock. I …

The Azerite Snake is Showdown in the Badlands First Card Nerf - RIP Excavate Warlock?

It'll probably be something like reduce 2-4 damage, or just flat out make it deal damage instead of stealing health.

Whatever it is, Im not optimistic that snakelock would be gone for too long. The point is simply to …
