When Does the United in Stormwind Mini-Set "Deadmines" Arrive? Early November 2021 is Most Likely

Not sure if pushing back on the midset is a good idea, because that means the midset has an effective 1 month range to do anything useful before it gets completely taken over by the next expansion, unless the idea …

Standard and Wild Balance Updates Arrive on Tuesday - Mindrender Illucia No Longer Swaps Decks or Cards, The Demon Seed Banned in Wild

I think team5 made the right decision because the [card]mindrender illucia[/card] design has always been a problem ever since its been printed. Some strats just straight up cant exist because of it, like how it basically solo most rogue decks.

Standard and Wild Balance Updates Arrive on Tuesday - Mindrender Illucia No Longer Swaps Decks or Cards, The Demon Seed Banned in Wild

Im talking about standard obviously. But what they need is early game tempo against aggro decks. [card]bloodsail deckhand[/card] is fine as a 2/2 but more is needed, and I'd trade a 2/2 bloodsail on 1 for a 2/3 harbor scamp …

Standard and Wild Balance Updates Arrive on Tuesday - Mindrender Illucia No Longer Swaps Decks or Cards, The Demon Seed Banned in Wild

Here's my take:

Good nerfs for obvious reasons: [card]Irebound brute[/card], [card]the demon seed[/card], [card]runed mithril rod[/card], [card]mindrender illucia[/card]. More baffling is the shaman nerfs.

- Irebound brute needed a nerf, but this one is so small Im not …

Group Therapy! Need to blow off some steam? Mega salty? Here's the place!

Im not mad about the stormwind quests to be honest.

But really, fuck that bs quest that is [card]sorcerer's gambit[/card]. Just delete this from the game. I dont care what the win rate is, because this deck is unbeatable …

Mythgard's Bittersweet 1st Birthday - Why It Wasn't a Success and 6 Things It Did Really Well

That's mostly why its never the product, but marketing that truly sells. Hence why company marketing and advert budgets often go way above what is used to make the products in the first place.

Mythgard is an unfortunate case …

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Community Q&A #30 - Hearthstone Quest Cards, Free Battlegrounds Cosmetics, New Legend Card Back

If there were separate lines for Q&A it wouldn't be a problem. I can't prove it, but there's likely a horde of questions about other stuff, like hints of the balancing due in Tuesday, or overrated and underrated decks in …

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Community Q&A #30 - Hearthstone Quest Cards, Free Battlegrounds Cosmetics, New Legend Card Back

I actually forgotten to comment on this myself, but for the large part Im with you for a rotating wild mode. Just as an alternative to standard (which as we have seen can get old really fast) and because there's …

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Community Q&A #30 - Hearthstone Quest Cards, Free Battlegrounds Cosmetics, New Legend Card Back

Handlock can easily win without ever completing the quest, and frequently do. The quest can be said to only be truly useful in the mirror, and against anything that can take down the giants easily, which in this meta is …

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Community Q&A #30 - Hearthstone Quest Cards, Free Battlegrounds Cosmetics, New Legend Card Back

So many anime questions that keeps creeping into a hearthstone Q&A. At this point every time I see the words anime in his twitter, the usual fullmetal alchemist, naruto, and death note just appear no matter what the question is. …

Hearthstone's Fairy Tale Hero Skin Bundle Preview - 5 New Hero Skins Coming

I really like the Jaina skin, but its likely not going to be individually purchasable. Which is a shame, because Id probably spend some cash on one skin as opposed to none for all.

For some reason having that …

Hearthstone Gets Constructed Balance Changes Next Tuesday - Warlock Card Ban, Priest Card Redesign, 5 Nerfs, 7 Buffs

Does flesh giant not get discounted when you damage yourself while having armor? Im not sure, but I dont recall this being a thing, either by personal experience or through discussions in forums.

Hearthstone Gets Constructed Balance Changes Next Tuesday - Warlock Card Ban, Priest Card Redesign, 5 Nerfs, 7 Buffs

You dont get a stormwind quest for free this time. Ever since the tavern pass, all we get is a predetermined legendary for free ([card]Mankrik[/card] in barrens, [card]lady prestor[/card] in stormwind). I didnt get a single quest from my 80 …

A New Card Back is Coming to Hearthstone, But "Moonlight Might" is Only Available in South Korea

We have to look at the conditions to gaining it first. Because if its a specific code gained from purchasing something, whats stopping anyone from just buying the item via net? And if its region specific, this can be overcome …

Hearthstone Gets Constructed Balance Changes Next Tuesday - Warlock Card Ban, Priest Card Redesign, 5 Nerfs, 7 Buffs

I doubt they'd be buffing quest hunter in any way. Mostly because the damage spells in hunter are already good in of themselves and dont need buffs.

Another reason is because quest hunter is much like quest mage, and …

Hearthstone Gets Constructed Balance Changes Next Tuesday - Warlock Card Ban, Priest Card Redesign, 5 Nerfs, 7 Buffs

Well, we can probably guess there's 2 nerfs for warlock, two for shaman, and one for dhunter.

[card]Runed Mithril rod[/card], [card]the demon seed[/card] - Rod on 3, backfire on 4 = easy win. Im not entirely sure about the …

How to counter Warlock?

Assuming the warlock youre facing is handlock.

Best decks: garrote rogue, poison rogue, quest dhunter, fatigue warlock, quest mage

Paladin actually has a good time against most warlock builds simply because most of them can't handle divine shielded …

Hearthstone Grandmasters 2021 Season 2 - Week 4 Results, Decklists, and More! (Spoiler Free)

I tried something similar back in barrens with sinister strikes, and after trying this latest build I can confidently say that team5 will never nerf it. Its too dependent on its core cards, and any tempo deck can easily beat …

The one positive thing about Noz day is we dont get low roll dailies that might just prevent you from playing today.
