[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
Quote From anchorm4n

No, I don't think so. I'm almost 100% sure evasion was deliberately chosen instead of ice block...

It was indeed. waiting made me think of Rogues sneakily lying in wait. Nice …

[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)

Is it... [card]Evasion[/card]?

"... waiting for the situation" might indicate that it's a Secret requiring a trigger.

Day 1: What works and what doesn't?

Has anyone found a good place for [card]Headmaster Kel'Thuzad[/card] yet? I'd like to play him in a deck but can't seem to slot him in. I feel like he belongs in Priest but that class already has so much AoE …

Day 1: What works and what doesn't?

I received a golden Alura from my pre-order so I took her for a spin in a Pure Paladin deck with Braggarts and Divine Shields galore. I haven't lost a game so far BUT:

a) I don't feel overpowered …

New Rogue & Warrior Spell - Cutting Class

Cool pun, and a pretty decent card as well. Like many have pointed out: with just a 2 Attack weapon this becomes Arcane Intellect, a staple in many Mage decks.

New Priest & Warlock Spell - Raise Dead

Can't wait to see this in gold.

I wonder about this card. Resurrection is a powerful mechanic because you can often bring back a lot of stats for far less mana than they would normally cost. Or, you could …

New Neutral Minion - Crimson Hothead

Good stat-line, and like the reveal stream showed, this sort of has Taunt without actually having it. If your opponent doesn't remove this already beefy minion it'll become even more annoying the next turn.

A Look Back At Historically Underhyped Hearthstone Cards

Had no idea it was part of the event. I wasn't particularly active on Hearthstone before and after Saviours of Uldum. Even now all I can remember is that N'Zoth came back into Standard.

Interesting that it was brought …

A Look Back At Historically Underhyped Hearthstone Cards

Seeing [card]Grim Patron[/card] brought back some less than savoury memories. I was still a new player when it was the meta and struggled tirelessly against Warriors.I'd honestly forgotten [card]Mysterious Challenger[/card] existed. Seems so weird nowadays that it was ever meta-defining …

I was just about to log out and then I saw this on the front page!

These activities are fantastic fun: please keep them up :)

New Hunter Minion - Bloated Python

This card definitely isn't going in every Hunter deck, but in Deathrattle-themed ones it'll be great. The Beast tag obviously works in the class's favour as well.

The 1/2 body is measly, but if you can trigger its effect …

New Demon Hunter Minion - Soulshard Lapidary

If you're playing a Soul Fragment deck, this card may as well have the effect Charge. DHs love to attack and this gives them the ability to do that immediately upon playing this card. The 5/5 body is solid …

New Rogue Minion - Shifty Sophomore

Some decent stealth synergy for Rogue, but the body is the only valuable thing about this card. Combo generator cards haven't seen much use in the past, and I can't see this being all that different.

New Neutral Minion - Sneaky Delinquent

Whilst this might be useful in a Stealth Rogue deck, it's pretty meh in other situations. It's a slightly more powerful [card]Worgen Infiltrator[/card] that gives you a copy of itself; I'm not convinced.

Blizzard Workers Share Salaries in Revolt Over Wage Disparities

Thanks for sharing this. Wholly agree with you that the Hearthstone team is doing great work, and they - including all other employees within the gaming industry, from developers, to customer service rep's, to play-testers - deserve recognition, a fair …

New Shaman Spell - Tidal Wave

It's an expensive card, but the Healing makes it worth it. As an avid Shaman player, I often find that I'm doomed if I can't win in the mid-game. This should help make the late game transition easier, and may …

New Mage Minion - Lab Partner

I never thought I'd see the day: a 1 mana Spell Damage card, with good stats too! It might be an auto-include à la Northshire Cleric. Both cards have good stats for 1 mana and both have a beneficial effect …

New Mage Minion - Wyrm Weaver

It's beautiful and I want it to work. I haven't touched Mage in a long while but this card seems like so much fun to pull off. Plus: having Mana Wyrms on board is going to feel wonderfully nostalgic.

New Paladin & Warrior Spell - Shield of Honor

Looks excellent for both classes! Divine Shield is a powerful defensive effect, coupled with the Attack buff it's fantastic, especially at 1 mana. I don't usually play Warrior though, so I'm going to hate running into this card XD

New Paladin Minion - Turalyon, the Tenured

It's good, but not great. I think it'll make the cut in a few decks, perhaps if players are missing some other key removal card. I do like the effect though, and I loved [card]Sunkeeper Tarim[/card] back in the post-Un'goro …
