    The fact that those are the only two options you can conceive of is not an indictment of the folks advocating change, but rather demonstrates your lack of imagination or empathy. People advocate for aesthetic changes in videogames for many more reasons than being "out of touch attention seekers who are unhappy with themselves," just as people oppose these changes for more reasons than just being neckbeard incels who send death threats any time a woman appears on their screen with less than double-D cup breasts.

    If you don't want to be reduced to that stereotype, maybe try to stop reducing the other side to a stereotype too.

    If you're hoping to keep them away from scantily-clad, big boob characters, just remember: porn still exists.

    Ah, so it's actually tomorrow? The main post above says "will continue to be available until late morning" with the implication being "late morning today."

    Thanks for clarifying!

    Do we have an actual exact time on this?

    Non-collectible cards can't be generated through random generation or Discover.

    Selling completely optional cosmetics is not "squeezing their customers." Please grow up.

    Pretty sure they've mentioned it's inspired by Slay the Spire a whole bunch of times...

    Huh? What "polish" does Battlegrounds have? It's just a bare background that your board fights against.

    Why? They've never embraced micro-transactions before, and we have zero reason to think they will here, either. Expect something more like the Battlegrounds Perks, which will also be included with set preorders to incentivize their purchase.

    Hexruin Marauder is interesting because there are tons of times your 7th slot is a flex slot, and you only fill it with the last minion you play in a turn by default. If you've got a golden Hexruin going, getting +6/6 on a minion you'll keep to the bitter end is a LOT better than leaving up a poorly-statted buff minion in your flex slot, so you'll just sell it, re-roll one more time, and go into battle with 6 minions.

    I think we'll be seeing more of it than some people think. It's not *just* for Y'shaarj.

    That doesn't change the way it functions - it's just for consistency's sake.

    In the Clown Shaman deck, I think you need to play Yogg first to corrupt the Clowns.

    EDIT: Oh, or the Rafaam artifact. Forgot those were 10-cost.

    Hearthstone cards work based on a plain reading of the text. So if it doesn't say "discard," nothing that DOES say discard can trigger off of it.

    Definitely considering crafting a golden Mutanus. If you're going to piss people off, piss them off in GOLD.

    Wha? The average minion right now HAS to have better than 2/2 stats, so I don't buy that it's "a 7 mana 6/6 in most matchups." I'll bet the average is more like 7/8 or more.

    Although that's not considering the times when your opponent has zero minions in hand. But just having that information (except against No Minion Mage) has value in and of itself.

    The meta is always changing, though, and you'd better believe that combo will be ascendent again sometime this year.

    Honestly, $5 just for a random standard legendary wouldn't be that bad. This is a pretty excellent deal.

    I'm bummed that this is in the middle of the day on a Wednesday. It's just... why?
