  • Sorry, I should have included this in the post.

    The offer expires on February 11, so you've got about 2 weeks to get it.

  • Receiving a legendary card through a promo has always not touched the pity timer, so the assumption here is the same.

    This pack should not reset any pity timers since it is a unique pack from the rest and packs have always been unique on the timers

  • This is the only way.

    I gotta say though, I love the idea of themed boosters and would love to see these become available in other ways.

  • My assumption is that due to all the sets being combined into one pool, all legendaries from those sets that you have are removed from the pool. When the pool of unobtained legendaries is empty, you have a chance of getting any legendary since dupes are now allowed.

    There should be equal odds of getting any legendary that you do not own. If you disenchant a card and it becomes the only legendary you are missing from the combined sets, the pity timer would give you that legendary back. It can be a good way to chase a particular golden legendary, assuming the game actually gives you a golden legendary in a pack.

  • I've updated the article with the Upgrade RNG chances

  • Nothing on season rewards yet. The current season lasts all of Beta so I wouldn't expect to hear anything until beta is about to end.

  • RIP. I caught that before it went live and reverted it somehow. Thanks!

  • Noooooo!

    So far I've quite enjoyed the Runeterra draft format and I've enjoyed various ones out of Magic, but Hearthstone's Arena has never had a large appeal to me so I definitely understand the non-enjoyment factor :D

    The XP potential out of Expeditions is so crazy though, it almost feels forced.

  • Nah, that sounds pretty normal to me! Expeditions are great fun that isn't the usual constructed netdeck hell, so getting in for free at least once a week is awesome.

  • If you can't sleep and you know it push site updates! Pushes update.

    New Features

    Legends of Runeterra

    • We've now got dedicated database pages for keywords!
      • These are linked on our card pages where a card has that keyword and in the navigation.
      • We're in the process of writing guides for each of the keyword pages. Check out the pages for Barrier, Drain, and Elusive.

    Changes

    Legends of Runeterra

    • Added region links to the cards dropdown.
    • Added keywords listing to the cards dropdown.
    • Added region links to the decks dropdown.
    • Card importer now flags mechanics that Riot's API does not include.
      • Prior to this change, Brightsteel Protector did not appear as a Barrier card.
      • This change makes card filtering a LOT better.

    Bug Fixes

    Legends of Runeterra

    • Fixed an issue that prevented the cache from breaking on deck pages when a deck guide was updated.
  • I've tracked the issue down and will be deploying the site shortly to fix it. Thanks for the report!

  • Looking into this. Its likely an issue with the cache not breaking on save.

  • He definitely makes me mad at times! LOL

  • Shadows is a god-tier hacker! Going to keep my eye on him...

  • Asking the real questions, Poorwotan. I appreciate that.

  • A small update has been pushed to the site that focuses on search improvements. Thanks to Trimutius for asking for this over on Discord! (You should totally join us on Discord if you have not yet =) )

    New Features

    • Smarter Search
      • The default functionality of site search has changed so that it will lookup cards for the part of the site you are currently on.
      • If you are on a Runeterra page, or were on a page that doesn't have a "game" associated with it and were previously on a Runeterra page, you will see results for Runeterra cards.
      • Hearthstone pages get results for Hearthstone Cards
      • Magic pages will get results for Magic Cards (when available).
      • The default if you have no game selected is to search by the forums.
      • This also implements Runeterra Cards and Runeterra Decks into site search. It was absent due to an oversight.

    Bug Fixes

    • Fixed an issue where search was displaying forum threads oldest -> newest. It is now correctly newest -> oldest.
      • Dev Note: We'll eventually need to find a good way to make search show better threads at the top.
  • Yeah, I'm not looking forward to YouTube for streaming.

    Though, I don't really watch Hearthstone Esports anyway since its always the same nonsense every single match.

  • Quote From KANSAS

    I am actually pretty excited about being able to rate news articles. Sometimes I read a very good article and I don't really want to make a comment just saying "good job" but I still want to show that I liked. Very often I wish that I could up-vote a news article just to show that I liked it without having to make a post.

    Yeah, this is pretty much why this was added.

    A while back we had talked about letting people let staff know they enjoyed an article. When we first brought on a bunch of new content contributors, comments on the news articles were high and spoke of praise but that stopped shortly after. Had we of had a rating or upvote system then, we likely would have continued getting that positive feedback.

    Glad you'll make use of it! Though, don't ever be afraid to leave comments like "loved this article". It can encourage others to comment and of course it gives others warm fuzzies. Definitely at least rate the stuff you love though <

  • Definitely a bug! I have to deploy the site again so I'll ninja this in momentarily.

    Thanks for the report!
