I haven't played Overwatch in a hot minute and definitely suck at Genji but damn... that is such an unfair skin! It makes me wish Heroes of the Storm wasn't such a C-tier game.
I really hope we get some amazing Overwatch announcements at this year's BlizzCon. The rumor is some kind of large expansion or "Overwatch 2" so if its anywhere near that big it should be exciting. I'd love to play the game again, even if just for a month or two, but there hasn't been anything that has given me the desire to do so. There are too many good games out there to play these days, including Borderlands 3 which I am nowhere near finished and need to find some more time to sink into it.
Yeah, as someone who plays all of Blizzard's titles, though some definitely not very often, the BlizzCon Virtual Ticket always excites me. Honestly though, I'd drop $50 on it just for the WoW cosmetics this time around because HELL YES I WANT TO BE A YETI!
It has been a really good year for Hearthstone! I keep hearing its only going to get better and so far, that has held true. The game is in some amazing hands now, it's just a shame it took so long for it to happen. Now if only we could reduce the amount of money everyone needed to spend on it to get full enjoyment / feel competitive. That is going to be one of their biggest hurdles.
You'll get the rewards if you have a physical ticket. I think physical ticket holders even get VOD access for watching panels they missed after the con.

Ideally we'd let you know if something gets marked as spam so you can let us know about faster, that'll have to be something we add into notifications.
Sorry for the trouble.
(It might not like lots of quick edits though since its lots of repetitive content, we have seen some of that. Will need to be tuned a bit better towards it most likely)
I felt in the first dungeon run, that it was pretty clearly increased odds to get e.g. jades if you picked jades. But not guaranteed. But these last 2, Im not so sure. Maybe it is just a slight bonus...
Yeah, if there is a bonus, it is very likely to be minimal. The Dungeon Crawls can be more fun when you have a couple of different synergies so if you only ever got Battlecry bundles, you'd always feel like you had to take them or you'd be doing your deck a disservice.
I'd go Human tbh; Perception is way too good in PVP! Of course, the Spirit is also insanely awesome to have, and if you want to rep grind for any of the other faction's mounts, Diplomacy will certainly help you out there with that 10% passive boost.
You've also got better Priest spells as a Human if you want to stay alive. Desperate Prayer is an instant heal (though 10-minute cooldown does suck) that will recover tons of health. Feedback will help screw over enemy casters, burning their mana and causing damage.
You're far more likely to not need to run back to your corpse in the world if grouping with other people btw, it would only really be dungeons and even then, maybe only the early ones. So far, even grouping with people that very clearly have zero clue of what is going on, stuff is dying too fast to wipe us in dungeons, including some crazy pulls I initially thought were going on do so.
You may not want to discount Dwarf though. Like humans, they also get Desperate Prayer, and then their unique ability is the fantastic Fear Ward! Stoneform is also excellent for PVP since it will give you some extra armor and make you immune to Bleeds, Poison, and Diseases - and an easy way to cleanse yourself of those currently on you.
I definitely believe that they are weighted based on your previous choices so that you have a good chance of having a successful run, though that's just one person which makes for a terrible sample size.
I recall back to a few times where I was playing with C'Thun and it seemed like every other boss at least I was getting more C'Thun friendlies. Same deal with the current Tombs of Terror where I went for Battlecry and it showed up every single boss kill except one.
I wouldn't be surprised if AliRadicali was right and that Treasures could also play into bucket weighting.
Nothing client-side shows anything that supports bucket weighting, but as we know from Blizzard, nothing is ever truly random.
I played a run on Anomaly mode (normal version) that gave Double Battlecry passive with Finley.
Got Shudderwock early on alongside Blade of the Burning Sun. I actually ended up burning the blade in the final boss fight but it didn't matter. I controlled the board hard, played my buff cards, and let him lethal himself to the last third of his health at which point I went back to control.
The 50/1 really made me laugh on the 7th encounter.
Oh yeah, had some Darkness in there too =)
I did have a fun run before that with Reno and that crazy Ancient Reflections. Also had picked up Band of Scarabs which made the extra murlocs the opponents were getting all trash-tier. Getting out a bunch of Lich King through the effect made for hilarity.
Absolutely incredible chain of events here. Took Crook and Flail.
Turn 2 the Molten Giant came onto the board for free.
Also, Ol' Toomba in another run swapped out a Gnoll from my Hogger for a Kalecgos. Absolutely amazing to have a free spell every turn for Ancient Reflections value.
Have not yet touched Heroic but already Tombs of Terror is feeling even better than The Dalaran Heist. I started playing the Heist exclusively after it launched and didn't touch much constructed again until Uldum came out. It's really nice to have something different when standard gets boring.
The best thing we can do is just vote more on decks. When you see something, with a guide, that is good and not a total meme, toss it an upvote!
I do think it is possible people aren't finding the voting easy and I would like to add a prompt when people get to the end of a guide to consider voting on it. I don't think we'll add extra front page deck widgets though, it would use too much space =(
We're working towards flagging cards that are missing their related friends. If you notice any, please give us a hand and report the cards in this thread.
Wouldn't be better to display directly the card image in the related cards section?
Just a minor feature ofc, but while you're there, I think the image is much more straightforward and immediate to check for a browsing user.
Some cards have too many related cards for that to work effectively IMO. I was thinking maybe we'd do that just for heroes and hero power pages since those will always have relations to each other and then a possible token it generates.
If we do it though, it will be important to remain consistent about it. If we were to do a "if there are 2 related cards, show them as images, otherwise make them links", that wouldn't appear to be very consistent with people at first glance.
At this point, I'm a little behind on putting these out. Battling awesome sickness WOO!
Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue where our spam filter was not letting us unspam posts fully.
Adapt, Recruit, Magnetic, Twinspell, and Reborn Hearthstone mechanics are no longer absent from the site.
Hearthstone mechanic dropdowns now sort alphabetically as originally intended.
Fixed an issue preventing golden cards from displaying on card pages.
Fixed an issue where thread names could sometimes not be edited by their owners.

Well I just went through the entire SoU, made a list, posted the comment, and now that comment has disappeared... 30 minutes for nothing. I'll try again later.

The WoW transmog outfit is the most exciting thing for me. I hope the Hearthstone card is at least super fun.
Really hoping the event this month is darkmoon themed! Definitely has spooky tones

Other occurrences of this were due to out of date software so you'll likely need to upgrade your browser on your phone or the OS.

It's likely that they deleted their comment or the comment was spam.
I've gotta make a change to clear out notifications for deleted stuff.

Nothing quite like the Starving Buzzard and Undertaker pre-nerf nostalgia!
Sticky threads need a UI overhaul, but yeah, you'll eventually be able to jump to the end of it.
