New Shaman Spell - Pop-Up Book

Fantastic value when played just before [card]Wish Upon a Star[/card], but still quite good without it.

New Shaman Location - Fairy Tale Forest

I love Locations, and I especially love Locations that draw cards. Now we have one that can tutor?! This is an absolute game-changer.

New Shaman Spell - Baking Soda Volcano

I have a feeling 10 damage is going to feel very small and pitiful in the coming year, especially if you're counting on this as a full clear.

New Shaman Spell - Wish Upon a Star

These days, there are more potential handbuff/deckbuff targets than ever. Cheating this out is a worthwhile goal, but I'm pretty sure you'll be happy to play it at full Cost in many cases -- assuming you built your deck correctly.

Catch-up Packs Return to Hearthstone for Whizbang's Workshop, With a Twist

Indeed, I was glad to see them after taking a break for most of 2023, but I definitely got too many. I was only missing two out of the five expansions involved, so I ended up with a LOT of …

Everything You Need to Know About Whizbang's Workshop Rewards Track

I just realized that the XP bonus is the only reward I care about. (I really hate premium cards, especially signatures.) But I'll get it for the XP bonus anyway.

Also, why is it always Scabbs? SCABBS SCABBS SCABBS! …

Catch-up Packs Return to Hearthstone for Whizbang's Workshop, With a Twist

It sounds like a lot of cards, but remember that 80% of them are Common. Worse still, If you are missing cards from just one or two expansions and not the other(s), it's a whole lot of duplicates. AND the …

Four New Warcraft Rumble Inspired Cards Join Hearthstone's Standard Format Today

Rumble's fine for a little while (and ONLY if you spend some money), but it gets old fast. PvP is dumb, and raids are still nowhere to be seen. I would not recommend it at this time.

It's probably …

Everything You Need to Know About Whizbang's Workshop Rewards Track

I'm glad they eased up on Achievements a bit. A lot of them require you to play cards that don't become viable until the next expansion or two (if ever), so it always felt bad being forced to tank your …

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 16 Hearthstone Card Reveals - March 7

Oh, you're absolutely right that you'd want to curate the spells carefully, but it's pretty clear that they will be mostly burn, with the intent of dealing lethal damage.

As for clearing the board, "one of each Cost" seems …

[card]Triplewick Trickster[/card] doesn't quite make up for the loss of [card]Cold Case[/card], but I like it anyway.

Dealing lethal damage isn't the best use? What could be better?

(Obviously, there's no need to load it up with every Cost.)

Are we sure it would work? Spells in your graveyard usually revert to their original Cost.

Glad we don't have to wait for a patch to fix that. I wonder if they would have caught it if someone hadn't asked.

All Whizbang's Workshop Day 15 Hearthstone Card Reveals - March 6

To be fair, just about every class is getting some highly annoying synergies powered by old "favorites."

The overall power level of the Year of the Pegasus is just going to be a lot higher than what we're used …

I think it's totally appropriate to do some callbacks for the 10th anniversary.

Unfortunately, a lot of the most memorable cards in Hearthstone are memorable because they fell somewhere between "annoying" and "toxic."
