    Exciting acquisition by Second Dinner. Shame that the Hearthstone team is continuing to lose some of their oldest people, but this new year feels like it's going to be such a refresh for the game I don't think it matters that much.

    Good luck to Second Dinner on their development with Marvel!

    Another day, another set of improvements to HearthStation!

    Bugs Fixed

    • Fixed an issue causing web server instability.
      • Quite sorry for the interruptions last night and this morning. It wasn't caught until we started getting real traffic.
    • Fixed an issue where card images went full derp. They were not their correct sizes.
    • Fixed an issue where recent threads had their views and comment count columns swapped.

    Changes

    • Comments on the site now showcase colored usernames if you're lucky enough to have one.
    • Comments no longer display the form if you are not logged in but instead are given a link and asked to login.
    • Logging in via a login link on the site will redirect you back to where you came from. We have the technology!
    • A link to sign out of your account has been added to the top user bar.
    • Missing card images have been added. If you notice any missing, this is a bug and can be reported here.
    • Tavern Brawl pages now display data on the weeks they were active. MAGIC!
    • The brawl pages load faster.
    • Articles on the homepage now show you how many comments they have.

    New Features

    • Front Page Tavern Brawl Widget
      • Will display details on a new brawl when it is active.
      • When it is not active, it will tell you TB is closed and to wait. It will also give you a link to the last Tavern Brawl's guide.
    • Responsive Forums
      • An initial pass to get things working better on your favourite mobile device.
      • All functionality that we have on desktop is also available on mobile.
    • Recent Threads
      • A brand new page to list recently active threads!
      • A button has been added to the forums block on the homepage to take you to this page.
      • This page can also be accessed under the forums site navigation.

    Known Issues

    • There is a problem with tables not being responsive across the site. This is being investigated and we should have a fix real soon.
    • The responsive navigation on lower screen resolutions on desktop is a pain in the ass.

    Last month Emerald Spellstone was nerfed alongside a few other cards. We wanted to see how everyone felt about the nerf at this point in time.

    The nerf was: Cost increased to 6 mana (Up from 5)

    • Do you think the nerf to Emerald Spellstone was warranted?
    • Are there any decks you're using that make use of the nerfed card? Share them!

    Yeah I really don't know how many people want Hearthstone branded basketball shorts but hey, maybe market research says otherwise.

    Hey Sherman!

    Thanks for the love! ❤ User profile stuff is currently a very high priority because it's one of the coolest parts of customization available. You've probably seen us admins with custom avatars already, the support is there we just need to extend it to a user-facing form.

    The negative votes on forum posts is currently a bit of a test. It might end up being a positive which is why I wanted to try it, though there isn't any penalty yet (like hiding low voted replies) and I don't know if there will ever be for the forums. It's important that people feel like they can discuss stuff on the forums without penalty.

    I would like to add in reactions at some point though which might make votes on forum posts not needed. Similar to how they're done everywhere else on the web - with emojis - it would give us a cool way for people to show appreciation in many different ways and also scold those that are being a bit too Kappa.

    Eventually we will allow people to see who positively voted on their content, though that isn't currently in the works and we will never showcase negative votes to anyone other than staff to prevent the harassment potential.

    Lots more to come, pushing out updates as often as I can to get more systems in place. Hoping we'll see some more friendly faces real soon!

    Just having an entire year be connected to itself is going to be crazy. The villains though so far.. GG Blizzard, shut up and take my money. I really hope Rafaam gets a ton of love.

    I've pushed updates to the site this evening to fix some issues and implement new features.

    Bugs Fixed

    • Fixed a problem with images overflowing the containers they are inside.
    • Fixed a problem with YouTube and Twitch video players overflowing the containers they are inside.
    • Fixed the display of unpublished content in the guides section. We can't have that!
    • Fixed an issue where clicking on the vote score for an option would refresh the page.
    • Removed card classes from filters on the Deck and Card listings that do not contain collectible cards.

    Changes

    • Site content editor now respects your browser's spell checker.
    • Class images have been added to homepage deck listings and the deck listing.
    • Removed the 10 character requirement for posting comments.

    New Features

    • Some pages have been upgraded in their mobile-friendliness. They now have special sub navigation that lets you switch between content!
      • The homepage on mobile now defaults to "News" with an accessible sidebar of "Decks & Forums".
      • Deck detail pages on mobile now default to  "Guide" with an accessible "Deck List".
        • Developer Note: I'd like to make the Deck List the default view in the future if the guide portion is empty.

    Not horrible.. Lots of dust from the epics =D

    Have you opened up some crazy awesome card pack? Did RNG screw you over so hard you are in disbelief?

    Share your pack opening screenshots and videos below!
