    I was struggling to beat Dragonbone Golem, and then finally got it with a Frost team... and no task completion. So I either didn't trigger quite enough deathrattles or the boon bug got me. 

    Will be trying again, maybe throw Kazakus in there and score his final equipment. 

    That task involving Corrupted Viscera looks tough. Anyone manage that trick yet?

    I totally messed up with the Naaru shard on task 3 the first time (hey, at least I can get in, lol). I selected a team with no holy abilities, I carefully avoided holy treasures on the climb, and yep, first turn with the shard I picked its holy ability. Whoops! 

    I ran it with my Nature crew too, but there are so many demons on the climb that I see the value of including Kurtrus.

    While you only need to bring one murloc to Darkshore, you might as well bring as many as you have, because there are lots of enemies that buff all murlocs. I think that's going to be the case for the rest of Darkshore. Mggrgll!

    We can put some N'Zoth event tips in this thread, you know, help Avalon out with those guides. 

    I completed Task 2: ice-free Ice Howl with dragons. Longxin's ability to swap places is very helpful for getting the boss to damage the starter ice blocks.

    The compensation will be interesting for sure. 

    I'm also wondering what direction a nerf would take, as the usual "make it cost more mana" approach does not feel applicable here. 

    Stat reduction is a possibility, but then Drek doesn't match Vanndar, and is this card winning on stats? 

    Changing the effect to summon one minion feels best to me. Other ideas?

    Thanks for the reminder! I had 5+ copies of each of those commons. Now I have dust.

    I'd love to see the data on which card is most often upgraded to golden. Tell us in a month, Blizzard! 

    And I will absolutely be setting a selection of favorite cardbacks. I like the Random idea, but it always seemed to result in a very Christmas (excuse me, Winter Veil) cardback in a non-Christmas season.

    This weekend I learned (by playing questline hunter) that warlock's curses progress the quest.

    D'awwww, thanks!

    One of the previous mentions of Mercenaries by the devs suggested that the next change would introduce a bunch of new characters. 

    That could be the Old Gods, or N'Zoth and his naga creations. 

    And some underwater bounties.

    There were a few: Jade Druid was one, and a Thief Priest that copied some of my prelates was another. 

    At the time, the large buffs to create huge prelates weren't available, but a wall of taunts that generate Spikeridged Steeds was certainly enough to create infinite protection. 

    Good times!

    I played a version of this deck a while ago (must have been pre-Scholomance) and it was the first deck that ever brought me to the turn limit. Hearthstone games have to end, apparently!

    The pop-ups are definitely back, because I just earned the 1000 victory Hunter portrait. 

    Which I won't be using, because (to paraphrase John Mulaney) Sylvanas is a war criminal, and I like her so much.

    Barbaric Sorceress can reduce the cost by quite a bit, but then you'd need a hand without other spells in it. 

    What about Standard mech Mage with this as a finish?

    I'm at level 60, and 9% done with the Sunken City achievements. 

    My level 50 reward was the Leviathan, woo-hoo! 

    I hadn't even noticed that there are new Core achievements to go with the new Core set until this thread. So I went and looked, and their sidebar icon is blank. Ouch. Can't even drop a little hydra icon on there?

    Sorry if I wasn't quite clear! I'm  talking about the "hamburger" menu (I'm viewing the site on mobile). It has a top level category for Guides, and one of the nav options under there is Achievements. But that just goes to one article, over a year old, that talks about what achievements are. 

    When I go to the same Guides part of the menu and select All Guides, then I can filter to your flagged articles correctly. 

    So maybe the Guides > Achievements menu target is outdated?

    Hey Avalon, can you add these awesome articles to the Guides > Achievements section of the menu, so we stand a chance of finding them again?

    I love seeing these Colossals on board. They are perfectly spaced to get the visual effect of one giant piece of art.

    Found myself in a Warlock mirror match. We were both in fatigue before the curses killed anyone. 

    And we'd both milled several cards on the way there.
