The 3 lane thing is probably what killed it for most casuals who can stomach the 20$ price tag.

I only watched the game in action and the number of times the screen have to flip was amazing.

It really wanted and tried to do something different. Going the paid route was probably not their smartest move because it killed any interest in the game from the get go and raised the bar to impossible heights.

LoR …

[quote from="Iksar"]Iksar's list of tough to balance classes:

• Hunter can't heal or clear the board so you can't make use of it.
• Druid ramp is a core mechanic but it can feel helpless to play against.
• …

Quote From HuntardHuntard

I feel like the majority of players who do not even reach diamond 5 have too much of a influence on balance.

It might do to put in a few examples, because I can't …

A wholly unimpressive card...if it weren't for the fact that nearly every other good card from classic have just been purged from standard.

There's actually a niche for this to exist in rogue, which has just lost [card]questing adventurer[/card], …

This thing saw no play as a 4/4, so team5 decided after a collective meeting of the brains to make it a 5/5, instantly transforming this from an execrable pile of stinking trash, to slightly less trash than before.

Quote From Hydrafrog

If there is a way to cheat him out earlier, then it will be worth it as long as the minion it swings at with it's Rush ability isn't the same one you you swing …

It'll certainly be a challenge to do it now. Unlike pokemon TGC or the actual game itself, hearthstone was never designed with 'weakness and resistance' in mind and hence why a vanilla stated minion is only 1 or 2 stat …

It really depends. [card]Coerce[/card] doesn't develop any board, while [card]plague scientist[/card] is a 2/3 at least. That means if you're trading a minion smaller than the scientist, its essentially buffing your board while removing a minion. Of course, that is …

I'd like to think that a 7 mana board clear is okay for a class like rogue, but its probably too slow. But then again with the loss of so many cards, you could just slot [card]plague scientist[/card] in anyway, …

Might be a blessing in disguise. Since rotation is like 3 weeks away, is there any reason to open it now?

Well, just finished this one and I have to say that that Cho'Gall fight has got to top the charts as one of the most difficult and bs laden battle I've encountered so far in book of heroes. We still …

And now we have rogue, whos classic set have been nerfed so many times I couldn't keep up. Well, now most of the cards are gone, the most significant of which is [card]eviscerate[/card]. I'll be honest that I wasn't at …

First off, nice deck building. There's a good deal of things I would agree, but here's some suggestion for changes;

- No [card]argent squire[/card]? That's near sacrilege considering its legacy in classic. And this core set is even less …

Its reasonable to expect [card]nordrassil druid[/card] to not be as impactful as it seems. It doesn't have taunt, needs to be played first (and therefore you actually need to have that card in hand prior to playing your spell) unlike …

Aside from maly and highlander druid, I don't remember seeing [card]swipe[/card] being placed into a druid deck for the last 1 year. I think the exact timing was when [card]overgrowth[/card] was released in AoO that swipe quietly got shelved.

Quote From FortyDust

Prediction: Barrens will have a Druid card that damages the enemy board based on the Hero's Attack. They can't just delete [card]Swipe[/card] and [card]Starfall[/card] and expect Druid to survive without any board clear whatsoever. They …

Its going to be difficult. Mage secrets are often too expensive to play standalone, hence why losing [card]kirin tor mage[/card] is a big deal because the tempo from that 4/3 on top of a secret makes it worth putting more …

Of all the core changes, druid's is probably a mixed bag. They lost all their AoE and spell damage cards like [card]swipe[/card] and [card]wrath[/card], and instead reverted to the face method of removing board. A few buffs here and there …

Alright, so I'm not a fan of what they did to mage, but its not really too bad, and mostly because [card]fireball[/card] still exist. Unfortunately, one card does not alter the fact that mage as we know it is more …
