    Well, naturally, I collected a few screenshots. 

    Most of the questions were about possible partnerships and avenues for additional engagement. 

    Probably Blizz kicking the tires on a few ideas that will never see the light of day.

    Did everyone get a pop-up in-game that linked to a Blizzard marketing survey? 

    I was surprised to see communication from Blizzard, right there near the menu, and on a mobile device, too!

    I like this idea, but I don't think this is enough to bring Deathrattle Rogue back to life in Standard.

    "Permanently" added to your hand, well, that's a new one.

    The Chinese government tries to regulate a teenager's videogame schedule, as well as fandom behavior, as reported here: 

    https://www.vox.com/culture/23404571/china-vs-fandom-danmei-censorship-qinglang-social-media

    It can be challenging to understand, from our Western perspectives. 

     

    This particular move by Blizzard is probably just an attempt to get the players to pressure NetEase to accept Blizzard's terms (and price tags). Blizz doesn't want to leave China. But how much are they willing to pay to stay?

    What happens if I silence this? Would it survive attacking?

    Merciful heavens, that Babbling Book task took me so many tries, even with AngryShuckie doing the heavy lifting on team building (and grammar-parsing). 

    Several of my attempts had my team annihilating the bosses before launching an ability from each school. And many more attempts saw "Something Fun" turn into something more like scorched earth. 

    After Yogg finally smiled upon my Book attempts, the remaining tasks were easy. Whew!

    At the moment, when Illidan meets Arthas on the ladder, he says something like "Today, and forever, I am your better, Arthas." 

    Which I enjoy, since Arthas is generally a smarmy bastard. 

    So I'm gonna swap in an Illidan portrait and rock some DH on the day 1 ladder until I get to hear their updated interaction. Shouldn't take long. 

    Maybe some Sylvanas after that.

    Last track I think they posted a statement that basically said any unclaimed rewards would be claimed automatically. 

    But I didn't test this, I just recall reading it. So if that's true again, I don't think you can save your portrait pick for a Death Knight, if those are even going to be included in the same reward portrait bucket.

    I lucked out on assassinating Prince M, but that can be an answer to pretty much anything.

    Oh, that is lucky indeed! I scored an Assassinate on the next one (C'Thun with all Mercs alive) and it was a huge help there too. 

    I don't think I've seen that offered to Finley before.

    Just remove brukan for something like nemsy, who comes with a renewable natural taunt minion.

    Yep, it was Bru'kan who inspired my "self preservation" comment. I had already figured that the Nature gang would be good here, but sheesh, give that troll a lil buff and he becomes a demon magnet. 

    Nemsy did the trick, thank you!

    Rattlegore event time! 

    How did you beat Prince M without summoning any of his taunty imps? 

    Even on Normal, he summons a 13/13 demon that attacks with no sense of self-preservation.

    I was somewhat wrong in Step 1, it's all maxed Mercs or nothing. No choice required.

    You were right - good guessing that the Stranger would be no more. 

    I hope they reuse that cool art for something else.

    The good news is, I beat the bounty and can legitimately give you a winning strategy. The bad news is I took my favourite meme team of the female rogue characters:

     

    I see no bad news here. While that's not a team I would have come up with, it worked, and on the first try! 

    Valeera snagged an Assassinate 2, and Tess picked up a Darkmoon Rabbit; both of those were very helpful. 

    Mask of Rage is the equipment that Garrosh provides, and now it is mine, thanks to your good advice.

    With the coin changes coming, I thought I might try and collect a few missing equipments. Maestra has me stuck. She's supposed to be on a team beating Heroic Garrosh. 

    With an orc comp, I can barely beat Garrosh on Normal. Dragons also got their tails handed to them. What else should I try?

    I mean, we mostly agree on numerals (1, 2, 3 totally won out over I, II, III), but just ask a representative from each country to write a large one (like 12, 876.45) and tally up the variations. 

    Humans! Bless their hearts!
