So why should anyone care about YOUR random feelings? What have you added to the discussion? Nothing. You've proved you're a narcissist, though, so congrats on that.

I had the same question - that seems correct based on a plain-text reading of the card.

They really crushed it on the new Signature Cards. Definitely took player feedback into account in a big way!

Yeah, I'm not optimistic. All the pro players on Twitter and multiple Team 5 devs are posting really apocalyptic things, essentially mourning the death of the game.

Flux, seriously... this is not the right take. Anyone who couldn't tell those cards are fake deserves to get trolled. I don't understand why you're doubling down on this being somehow bad.

They really made this extremely difficult for anyone to find a complaint with. Good on them for anticipating every community concern and addressing it before release!

This! I made a "trash" deck that I cycle new cards into to maximize my chance of upgrading every Common to Uncommon super quickly. Gotta make those early credits last!

People like you who claim you aren't coming back NEVER have the courage of your convictions. You can't be honest, not even with yourself. It's genuinely pretty sad.

To the [card]Doomsayer[/card]s: a bunch of people predict the death of the game literally every time an employee leaves. It didn't happen when Brode left, and it won't happen now. Video game companies are not dependent on single "auteurs" - …

Where are you getting your data that they make "more than enough" off of cosmetics? I have no reason to believe that's true, and lots of reasons to believe it's false (Kibler's commentary on monetization, for example).

I am voting with my wallet - I see no problem with their new monetization scheme. I was already paying real money for 4 heroes, and I'm happy to keep doing so. No has yet articulated their issue with the …

Lil' Rag dropping to Tavern Tier 5 is a HUGE deal for those of us still desperately clinging to Elementals.

And I'm very interested to try out Elise's new hero power.

When did I suggest you're attacking me? You're the one who defensively quoted my quite relaxed reply as if it was filled with insults. Suggesting you want the game to be more boring is an interpretation of your position, not …

Their job isn't to communicate clearly - their job is to create a fun experience. This card does that for me, so it's a huge success. It doesn't for you, because I guess you dislike doing research or testing something …

How is the wording not creative? It's unique among all other Hearthstone cards, much like [card]Mankrik[/card].

But it also doesn't do anything surprising or unprecedented - their detailed explanation only confirmed exactly how I thought the card would work, …

I don't disagree, but that's never been the case before with creatively-worded cards. Some things in Hearthstone require you to figure it out ahead of time (or through trial and error), and I'm actually okay with that.

20 packs is NOT statistically significant. Not in any universe. Show me the data from 10,000 pack openings and maybe we can talk.

But there's simply no incentive for Blizzard to do this. The downsides of that information leaking …

If they're playing a combo deck, and you Dredge one of their combo pieces and make it cost a few mana extra, that's game-winning.

Wow, you nailed it!

All you proved with your post is that you don't understand how probabilities work. The odds to open something are calculated in aggregate - they in no way guarantee a particular distribution over a small sample size.
