How to "cement HS for the next decade" speculations thread
Quote From JohnnyStorm

I hope they will add more deckslots.

I don't think I'd be able to understand having more than 18 deck slots. That feels too complex and I'm not sure I, or any …

The Hearthstone Cards We're Going to Miss When Year of the Dragons Ends - Rastakhan's Rumble Edition

Zul'jin was really fun after the KFT Deathknights rotated out, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't scared by the 'three-phase fight' hunters, which might be why I don't have many fond memories of Zul'jin.

The Hearthstone Cards We're Going to Miss When Year of the Dragons Ends - The Boomsday Project Edition

Totally fair to be happy that most of these cards leave standard. As sad as I am to see probably my favorite card of all time leave standard, it's nice to have a fresh new coat of paint on the …

Glad you like the bio, although I should probably right more for it now that the article is live.

As for why there is no Leeroy, it just felt redundant a lot of the time. There is already a …

What is the story behind your username?

Feel like I'm a bit late to the game but my username came from back when I would skype my friends to play games with them. I didn't (and still don't) have an actual headset and so because of that, …

Magic Announces Jumpstart - A Fusing of Contructed and Limited. Coming to Shelves and Arena This Year

So many things about this product don't make sense to me. First comes the name, Jumpstart. Not only is this a name for a mechanic in standard right now, but at least right now it's not even clear why it's …

Wicked Witchdoctor Shaman

Yeah definitely, it's a super weird deck honestly. Even though the deck's plan is fairly straightforward, a lot of the times it's not clear how to get into that position. I'd recommend taking it into casual first, or trying it …

Brawl Haul - Commanding the Field with Niv-Mizzet, Reborn

I'm glad you enjoyed the article, as well as more MTG stuff coming out! 

Golos was originally my go-to commander for Brawl because Field of the Dead is a format defining card. However, my main issue is that it …

Discussing Vanilla Body Stats

The n/n+1 stat line is still pretty much the standard for most cases in my opinion as time and time again we've gotten cards that either has that exact statline or something similar, a la [card]core beast[/card] or [card]Captured Jormungar[/card]. …

Blizzard Shares Deck Winrate Data from the Top 1% of Hearthstone Players, Possible Balance Talks in a Few Weeks

Pretty interesting to see that Mech Paladin started seeing a rise in winrates before shotbot got released. Wondering if this was caused by people trying to get in some practice with the archetype before it would get a 'buff'.

Is there any way to see where the other heroes placed? I'm curious to see where the best bunch of blocks, Pyramad, places when compared to everything else.

Two New Hearthstone Cards Revealed, Confirming Leaks - Escaped Manasaber & The Fist of Ra-den

The main reason why the 6 mana 4/4 is considered bad while the 5 mana 4/4 is considered good is mainly because of the expected output of each of the mana costs. Considering how many minions have at least 5/5 …

Two New Hearthstone Cards Revealed, Confirming Leaks - Escaped Manasaber & The Fist of Ra-den

Hey, I'm back with more math, here's the breakdown of getting a desirable card out of the new shaman weapon. For the criteria of what makes a legendary good, it needs to reach specific criteria. For legendaries 4 mana and …

Hearthstone's Newest Card, The Amazing Reno, Has a Yogg-tastic Hero Power

Quote From Stile

Great work. I wanted to zoom in on the first turn after Reno is played, when the board will likely only have your opponent's minions. In this case, I would …

Should milling be a genuine supported strategy in standard Hearthstone?

Quote From Echo

If we go by milling in terms of hearthstone, that was just making the opponent overdraw, I think that would be fair since most ways to print cards in this …

Should milling be a genuine supported strategy in standard Hearthstone?

It depends on what you mean by mill in my opinion, as it differs between the game. If we go by milling in terms of MtG, this being getting rid of cards from the top of the deck, then absolutely …

MTG Arena - Theros: Beyond Death Card Spoilers December 18

I think these cards can be fun but I think you would be grasping at a deck too gimmicky to try to properly use any of these.

 

That being said I'm buying deathbellow warcry because that card …
