No patch this week =)

We’re also getting Pandaria themed BG board soon which is real suspicious. I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re diving into Pandaria even without the Monk class

Datamined!

Hearthstone has been declining in popularity since 2016, yet, it's still a massive game.

Yu-Gi-Oh has been out since 1999.

Correct, it wouldn't make sense to do so.

Microsoft has been doing good in the past 5-7 years with their acquisitions. I see this as being a huge positive and once Kotick gets the boot (rumored he is leaving after ATVI is acquired) that should really pave the …

He'll almost certainly stay on for a transitional period and then be let go, or leave to "hang with the family". I don't think they'd keep him around after another bad news cycle. Can't hurt that Game Pass brand!

That's neat!

Decktech expanded on this.

There’s been all the cool new BG cosmetics recently (and more coming), that we wanted to make it clear this wasn’t that. And just also generally remind people that BGs …

Gym, Gel, Giraffe, General, Gin.

It is quite unfortunate that a crappy brand of peanut butter (why is it so damn sweet) shares the same name sound as the glorious web animations image format. 

Every patch is going to bring in new bundles and skins, Hearthstone finally got into the proper rate of releasing cosmetics so everyone can find something they like. The bundles are also just super easy to do and good value …

I think we'll see something in the next couple of weeks since 22.4 is likely the mini-set. (DMF + Barrens had *.4 as their mini-set, SW was *.6 because *.4 was Mercs). 

I don't think the primary goal will ever be to win over a large population of the player base into Mercenaries, it simply isn't a game for everyone. It's to keep the players they have and maybe catch some others …

Keep in mind, this is a dev comment on the unofficial Mercenaries Discord server. It's like if a dev were to make an announcement of an announcement. I'd never expect huge insights here, that's what the official communications through patch …

We don't have collection-based achievements on the site for two reasons:

1. We can't realistically verify what your own.
2. Site achievements should mean something towards your progress on the site and not in-game.

It looks like …

Hearthstone Audio Clips in database is an odd metric to showcase.

Last month as a sort of ninja-update, our database now has audio files for Hearthstone cards and this information is a part of our patch import pipeline so …

Probably a form of categorization that starts early on so it is obvious what kind of voicelines need to be recorded. The reason why a card or hero name may not be used though is due to those likely not …

Almost everything that is new in the client ends up on our homepage shortly after patches go up so for the most part, that's already true. Sometimes we do hold back on some information though to better time it with …
