Rant: Why Devs Making New Content Aren't Ruining the Game, Players Are

Its really way too early to say that, game's not even out yet. Blizz did themselves a massive disfavor in not communicating the monetization aspect well (which is likely to be topic no.1 among players anyway) and then did a …

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Community Q&A #28 - Warlock in Wild, Arena, Rewards Track Cosmetics Coming for Mercenaries & Battlegrounds, & More

When I use the term polarization, I had in mind something like ungoro quest rogue, where control matchups are just free wins while against aggro matchups its very near a free win for my opponent. Ive been trying a great …

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Community Q&A #28 - Warlock in Wild, Arena, Rewards Track Cosmetics Coming for Mercenaries & Battlegrounds, & More

Auction house for hearthstone is a scary thought. I don't think I ever want to see it. Limited time events for card trading among friends is interesting, an entire auction house will just create incentives for people to start multiple …

Going Forward, Characters in Hearthstone Won't be Named After Employees

After the episode of having to rename in game characters because the higher ups are such sleezebags, I can understand this decision. I never understood why people would want things named after themselves, it will always at some point in …

Rant: Why Devs Making New Content Aren't Ruining the Game, Players Are

Complaining is easy and people need something to vent, I can understand that. But there's a fine line between venting and making people genuinely uncomfortable, and unfortunately our society aren't really good at educating people about this.

In my …

Rant: Why Devs Making New Content Aren't Ruining the Game, Players Are

There's no doubt in my mind that the mercs showcase was too short, and honestly poorly done. That there are lots of stick over the monetization of the mode is largely because there's very little known about it, except for …

Hearthstone is Looking at Possible Nerfs and Buffs in the September Balance Patch, Wild Balance May be Coming

Priest questline is ironically the most balance of them all, despite the quest reward literally reads 'destroy the opponent'. Mostly because its requirements will almost always leave priest vulnerable to a mutanus, and the fact that priest doesn't really need …

Hearthstone is Looking at Possible Nerfs and Buffs in the September Balance Patch, Wild Balance May be Coming

It might be time for team5 to bite the bullet and simply admit that the stormwind quests as a whole are too powerful and too easily completed. I don't mind if the rewards are powerful, but it should at least …

Datamining in Hearthstone Duels Showcases a New Season of Wizard Duels With 10 Heroes Drafted Instead of 4

Its all fun and games until you reach game 4 and suddenly minions start dropping like crazy and your OTK is substantially less consistent. Besides which Ive actually been seeing priest play other stuff like dragons. Probably because like I …

Mercenaries: My First Impressions

Gameplay is very pokemon-esque. You have 3 mercs, your opponent has the same amount of mercs, you choose attacks and then all the attacks comes out turn after turn, determined by a single stat, which in this case is the …

Our Thoughts on Today's Warlock Balance Changes Targeting Stealer of Souls and Flesh Giant

Maybe its specifically designed by team5 to wean players off wild so they go back to standard. Curious to know if that's what preventing them from nerfing wild more often.

Our Thoughts on Today's Warlock Balance Changes Targeting Stealer of Souls and Flesh Giant

Handlock is one of the few counters to quest shaman so weakening it too drastically will almost certainly result in shamanstone yet again, not that it isn't everywhere in diamond 5 and above anyway.

Speaking of shamanstone, its actually …

Are Epic Card Packs Coming to Hearthstone? Datamining Reveals Blizzard's Potential Plans

If its going to offer up epic cards for all five cards per pack, I'd expect it to be quite expensive or very limited in offering. With the guaranteed in rares and commons, its usually only the epic cards that …

Datamining in Hearthstone Duels Showcases a New Season of Wizard Duels With 10 Heroes Drafted Instead of 4

Its nice to know that this particular issue may be resolved. Because its kinda dumb to restrict people from playing whatever classes they like in duels, since its a largely constructed format, at least in the first few games anyway.

August 2021's End of the Month 12-Win Hearthstone Duels Decks

Im amazed that these builds actually reached 12 wins without either captured flag or meek mastery. The entire top end of duels is filled with nothing but these builds.

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Community Q&A #27 - Next Year's Final Set Already in Development, Cross-Region Collections Not Likely, & More

The only true difference between the old system and new system is just the amount of grinding it takes to reach 'rank 5', where you get the best monthly rewards outside of legend. Either way you're still required to have …

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Community Q&A #27 - Next Year's Final Set Already in Development, Cross-Region Collections Not Likely, & More

How does the new matchmaking system guarantee a 50% win rate? Besides which, if the system adjusts to your relative skill level, isn't this a good thing?

I know theres a section of people that thinks the star bonuses …
