Dean Ayala’s Hearthstone Q&A Recap #39 - No Year-long Story in 2022, Less OTK and Hand-wide Cost Reduction, & More!

I couldn't really parse that either. What "big subtractions" were in Year of the Gryphon to compare the coming "big additions"? Burning cards? Subtracting cost? 

Or is this too metaphorical for my lil brain?

Hearthstone's 2022 Core Set to Bring Back Existing Characters in New & Old Cards - Who Could Return?

All the previous year names have been animals. Plants, it is your time to shine! 

TBH, I don't envision Team 5 announcing Year of the [tribe], as much as I do enjoy the elemental play style. 

When I …

Beat That Bounty Boss!

The General's troops have major fire resistance, and can't be frozen, so that's a few comps sidelined. 

He has such powerful healing, that I think my next attempt (my Orc team just got their butts kicked on Heroic) will …

Until the Next Lunar Year - How Was February 2022 Within Hearthstone?

I had that same thought when I saw Fortune's Favor: why isn't it a tiger? So I appreciate the explanation provided.

Rewards Track Progress: 4.0

Utility rates are structured differently everywhere, but around here charging an ipad daily will run you about $2 a year. 

We have one of those power meters where you plug the meter into the wall, and then plug your …

Updated: Special Limited-Time Chi-Ji Event for Hearthstone Mercenaries Begins - Experienced Players, Get Ready for a Challenge

I did this one yesterday with a comp that summoned extra bodies on my side (Tamsin's void taunts and Anacondra's beasts, etc). That plus a Hot Potato meant that I didn't need 3 Mercs damaged to 34, less damage (and …

The NYT crossword puzzle is also celebrating the day, fyi.

How to Complete Onyxia's Lair's Achievements for Rewards Track Experience - Great Deck Lists!

"For the price of completely giving up your chances to win," lol

I really appreciate these articles and the humor within. 

And the warnings as to which achievements take more tracking effort. I still haven't won that "create …

Beat That Bounty Boss!

Feels like the language of the tasks could be much clearer. I end up checking after the first fight to make sure progress is actually happening. 

And in the last patch, I noticed that the Mysterious Stranger now shows …

Can we talk about Mercenaries?

Tonight I had enough coins to craft Galvangar, cool cool. 

Then I took him on a couple bounty runs to unlock some abilities, cool cool. 

Then the collection manager showed -268 Galvangar coins. Math, y'all, it is just …

Beat That Bounty Boss!

Daowen, I haven't beaten Heroic Garr either. He does have frost weakness, so that is one avenue to try. 

Killing his firesworn one at a time is going to yield less damage, but that Hunting Party treasure (you can …

Beat That Bounty Boss!

Popsicooler is a ton of stats on board, and I barely squeaked out a win with my holy damage (with lots of healing) crew. There's probably a better way to do it. Maybe more immunity?

Tavish vs. Rokara

Beat That Bounty Boss!

Fresh tip: I just completed Heroic Icehowl today, and even after he had turned one of my Mercs into a block of ice, it was still able to cast its abilities. Like they were Rooted instead of Frozen.

Big Demons Demon Hunter - Wild Hearthstone Full Deck & Guide

I haven't been tracking my win rate, but I can confirm a very high rate of Concede-when-there-are-3+Void-Hounds. 

Sensible, really.

Is there any way to lower my MMR effectively?

Tuesday should bring some shakeups, and certainly some other fun things to try in Duels, Battlegrounds, and Mercenaries. 

Maybe hunt some achievement XP until then?

Thanks for the ideas, Swizard! I love it when I can chase achievements and wins at the same time.

Missing Cards? Free Arcane Dust? Blizzard Issues a Statement on Recent Hearthstone Issues

Setting aside the mistakes with the heal-up, I'm still baffled over the original issue. I saw the dust popup. So I had somehow recorded too many copies of golden rewards cards? 

Like, did the rewards track show 2 uncraftable …

Beat That Bounty Boss!

Nailed it! Diablo did nicely as a finisher, and my fire comp held their own and did lots of damage. 

Alexstraza's Gambit ability did much work, plus she picked up a treasure that restored everyone to full health. Coupled …

Beat That Bounty Boss!

A "sense of accomplishment" is not my primary goal! I'd just like to unlock the next thing. 

I don't think I've ever seen those Assassinate treasures. Closest I can recall is Sylvanas stealing 3x3 from everyone. 

The Hunting …
