Anyone found out how to complete the suspicious minion achievements? Obviously the idea is that you're supposed to successfully fool your opponent but its not triggering even when that happens.

I read somewhere that it only triggers if you're fooled, i.e. your opponent has to actually play it (good luck with that, suspicious pirate is unseen throughout the last …

Still funny to see a full board clear take up 6 minutes waiting for the game to remind us of all the deathrattles one by one.

This is just one of those things that you'll only know from experience, because the card description doesn't clarify this interaction even in the slightest.

Edwin's effect will continue to happen within the turn he's played, regardless of his position. So even if you bounce him twice in the same turn he'll still grow as long as you continue …

[card]theotar, the mad duke[/card] is going to get nerfed again, but probably somewhere early into the next expansion, which rumor has it, a new class will be coming out. The problem with the card is simple; its a win con, not really so much a disruptor, though its perfectly capable of doing that as well. Hsreplay lists its play win …

Paladin's [card]order in the court[/card] to tutor out [card]front lines[/card] + coin on turn 2 = auto win against druids. Mages only if they dont draw flurry etc. I think that's more consistent than most list that plays all those 10 cost minions.

It'll probably reduce his playrate by virtue of the fact that many players will simply dust him to get back value, rather than the effects of the nerf itself. To be honest, the card is not dead by any means, but its clear that team5 is only concerned with the play rate and not the card's power level.

I would be curious as well because this nemsy skin is probably the best one since the original. Not that that's a high bar mind you.

Its not really about nemsy to me. Seems like blizz is pushing cosmetics to a frankly ridiculous degree, devaluing them quite a good deal. But I suppose if they persist in doing it …

[card]Theotar, the mad duke[/card] was always going to be nerfed, it was a case of when not if. The fact is, that this 'disruption' card has inadvertently become a win-con on its own, which surprised no one. Depending on how far team5 is willing to push this, but very likely it'll be 5 mana, unless they have their own reasons …

Now, I think we pretty much know these sales are going to happen, and there's absolutely nothing wrong about blizz marketing their products, but I feel at some point someone has to step in and recognize that their algorithms are doing us a disservice.

- Bob's bargain offer 2 legendaries and packs, but the amount of packs vary according …

I dont think it was announced. But pretty much yeah, right after it was made available to be bought from the collection manager its simply never on sale for real money anymore, or at very least I havent seen it on sale for a long time.

Although, technically you can just use up gold for card backs and buy …

I'd love it. But much like classic itself, there doesn't seem to be a lot of players that really cling on to the nostalgia, nor do they seem to care enough about playing something in the past, particularly since hearthstone back then is significantly slower and less powerful compared to what we can do now.

 

And then …

Yeah, and pretty stealthily too. Likely a hotfix on server side, because I was midway through a bounty and suddenly I get stats out of nowhere. Didn't even realised it until the boss battle.

The interface is infuriating to be honest. That's just my greatest gripe about it. Mastermind just dont work on hearthstone's interface very well because the minions dont swap places, you have to drag it to where you want and drag another minion to offset the first.

Apart from anything else, its also very likely many would not have this …

There's no pity timer for mercs unfortunately. I had to open 60 packs to get 1 legendary off this. Fortunately its murloc holmes, one of the more funnier legendary.

Its for a card back.

Its fairly bad. In big decks, this card is just sitting around until about turn 9 while the conditions hinder its consistency.

There's some synergy here with cards like [card]masked reveler[/card] and [card]sigil of reckoning[/card], getting some big demons out early and playing this around turns 7-8, but its …

On the newcomers comment, that's only really true in terms of difficulty, but its kinda the same argument most players tend to make towards newcomers in regular hearthstone: "just play face hunter/aggro druid/etc." While that is a legit argument, you're still being starve in terms of variety; looking out the window as everyone plays that brand new toy while you're …

Writing as a person who has been grinding mercs all the way back then, having unlocked every merc, and currently holding 90 unopened packs...perhaps its time to just admit that this game mode has failed and start planning a complete overhaul, like everything.

The game is too linear to ever be fun, too unfriendly to newcomers, and lacking any …

There's some synergy here with cards like [card]masked reveler[/card] and [card]sigil of reckoning[/card], getting some big demons out early and playing this around turns 7-8, but its still so slow for today's game. At best in my …

This card is just tacit admission on how bad [card]kryxis the voracious[/card] really is even in a deck supposedly built around it.

Its basically playing the same role as kryxis, tempo and card draw, but functions much better because at least you dont have to dump your hand for it to work. And this card will draw you cards …
