Women to Get More Representation in Hearthstone Events Going Forward; Kripparrian & RegisKillbin Replaced in the Crossroads Inn-vitational

You just made up the idea that this is "enforced equality," so no duh you're getting pushback on it. No one can predict what would've happened if two competitors didn't volunteer for this. Arguing with you about a hypothetical you …

Women to Get More Representation in Hearthstone Events Going Forward; Kripparrian & RegisKillbin Replaced in the Crossroads Inn-vitational

In what universe has anyone on this planet EVER had "inviolable freedom of speech"? You can write a thousand letters to the editor of a newspaper, have them never publish a single one, and pose absolutely no threat to the …

Nobody "earned" their place in the Inn-vitational. What are you even talking about?

It only seems hypocritical if you don't think about it very hard. People who say "representation doesn't matter" as you just did usually think that way because they themselves are well-represented. Try to muster up a little empathy and listen …

Dean Ayala's Community Q&A #14 - Pandaria, Pickable & Custom Game Boards, Nozdormu Quest, Paladins & Meta

I mean... he described the Hero's Journey. Pokemon is far from unique in applying that arc to a "sports" competitor.

Spell Post Priest Budget Deck List & Guide - Hearthstone Budget Deck Breakdown

Big Fortune Tellers and dragons from Draconic Studies can go a long way. I've been surprised by how many win conditions appear through card generation effects in Spell Priest as I've been playing it (not this deck, but something similar).

Top 3

I can't speak for anyone but myself, but I love that it's pure meta gaming! The actual matches don't matter except to give you enough experience to try to counter the current decks. It's all about rapidly iterating your ideas …

Paul "Zalae" Nemeth Suspended From All Hearthstone Esports Events Following Relationship Abuse Allegations

Paul "Zalae" Nemeth Suspended From All Hearthstone Esports Events Following Relationship Abuse Allegations

The vast, VAST majority of abusers go unpunished, while false accusations are extremely rare. Thus believing the victims of abuse is the only "fair" way to adjudicate abuse allegations, as it's much more likely that they're telling the truth about …

Dean Ayala's Community Q&A #12 - Barrens Balance Meeting on Monday, AI Ladder, Core Set, Heroic Battlegrounds, and More

You CAN disenchant the non-golden copies you probably already have, so it's not totally nothing.

But also: the golden cards were just icing on the cake added to help stretch out all the rewards across the doubled number of …

Casual Gets its Own Game Mode, Matchmaking Has Not Changed

If you're playing Casual, how clued-in are you to anything, anyways? I bet Blizzard's data shows that the vast majority of Casual players are also lowercase-c casual players, and really don't pay that much attention to the interface or "which …
