New Druid/Shaman Spell - Lightning Bloom

At some point this will be nerfed to 1 mana, or to only refresh mana crystals. Why isn't it just refresh mana crystals though? Its effectively a turn 1 5 drop that immediately ends the game in some cases. Oh, …

New Paladin Minion - Goody Two-Shields

4/2 with divine shield is already pretty imposing on 3.

The spellburst effect means its possible this just gets more than 1 value trade, which is pretty nuts.

Goes into pure paladin for sure, but can it cut …

New Paladin Spell - First Day of School

0 mana card that refills. But its a poor card that will likely see play only because there's little else that gives resources to paladin. Two 1 drops, at random, is really not the kind of thing you want to …

New Neutral Minion - Onyx Magescribe

Its a 4/9 for six. That's already good enough in my eyes.

Probably see him more often out of a discover effect though, since its still effectively a bigger conditional [card]cobalt spelkin[/card]. Too bad, I really like the art, …

New Warrior Minion - Troublemaker

Very strong card that actually does something on 8 and needs to be removed before it does more harm. And if its on an empty board, you still get two 3/3s.

Its just that powerful, but fortunately in a …

Scholomance Academy is Hearthstone's Next Expansion! Here's Everything You Need to Know

Guess we know now why [card]twin slice[/card] was nerfed. Spellburst is an interesting concept, but more supportive of small spells than big, for obvious reasons.

Some notable cards in my opinion;

[card]shan'do wildclaw[/card] - Unfortunately for druids, this …

Rattlegore

Another big minion for an archetype that has so far not been working too well.

If for some reason you can get this out without dying, then its tremendously powerful. Essentially its a 9/9 that summons an 8/8 on …

The Naxxramas Card Back (July 2014 Ranked Reward) is Now Available in the Hearthstone Shop

Does it still look good. Yes. Do I want it. Oh Yes.

Is this worth 5 packs?

Not really.

 

*Sigh

Moving on.

Hearthstone Gets New Weapon Frames Later This Month - Class Weapons Look Amazing

It had always been possible to see what class a weapon belong to, that tiny little rectangle's color. So after 6 years we finally get this changed. Wonder how many eyes this little thing has strained over them years.

Transfer Student's Effect Changes Based on the Game Board - Here Are All the Effects!

Interesting card.

But if the effect can be game changing to play, and we can't choose the effect, that means the card is either extremely strong or stupidly weak depending on an rng system no one has control of.

Scholomance Academy is Hearthstone's Next Expansion! Here's Everything You Need to Know

So long as I don't see priest cards that discover cards from opponent's deck I'm fine with it.

[card]Nature studies[/card] looking very strong though, and very concerning.

Scholomance Academy's Pre-Order Will Contain Special Golden Packs for the Set, Mage Kel'Thuzad Hero, & More

Man, they really ramped up those stuff you get from preordering a deluxe.

And with something as iconic as kel'thuzad, that's really hard to pass up. Shame that's its effectively paywalled until further notice. But hey, that means there's …

Why Doesn't Blizzard do More Crowdfunding Promos to Increase the Prize Pools of Tournaments?

Some speculation;

- To get people to buy them, they'd have to sell at a discounted price. Its the usual 1USD per pack deal instead of 2.99USD for 2 packs. So if this becomes a staple, no one will …

Is the Next Hearthstone Expansion Scholomance Academy? Several Leaks Point to the School of Necromancy

Its likely either mage or priest. Or maybe its paladin. After all they're [card]making mummies[/card]

I'm back, what did I miss?

Did you get the supposed free deck from coming back?

Its been a lot better actually, far as standard is concerned. Wild is a mess, but with [card]warglaives of azzinoth[/card] being nerfed things might change.

Its not been …

Nerfs are Around the Corner! Our Thoughts on the Upcoming July Hearthstone Balance Changes

Hearthstone has 10 classes now and its not always possible to design cards so all classes have decks that can triumph with pure skill alone. That 1 mana hp in dhunters are pretty broken, but as much as I don't …

Hadidjah Chamberlin, Hearthstone's Lead VFX Artist, Leaves the Team

Maybe. Despite the gameplay trailers and announcements, it seems like d4 is having some trouble meeting deadlines. I can only hope they release it when its ready and not before.

10 Card Nerfs Arriving in Hearthstone on July 14! Targets Demon Hunters, Galakrond Rogue, Pirates & More

There's still control dhunter, which is actually pretty good, though not as good as tempo.

The current tempo dhunter list with 2x [card]vulpera scoundrel[/card] (not the priestess of fury build) has been doing well enough for me. Priest is …

Hearthstone Game Designer Alec Dawson Comments on Upcoming Card Nerfs
Quote From AngryShuckie

Of course Blizz wants us to spend money on the game (that's how it keeps going after all!), but they do that by keeping us interested, and it is a moot point what the motives …
