Celestalon Shares the Hearthstone Team's Thoughts on Drek'Thar and Vanndar Stormpike as Free Golden Card Rewards

I just think the whole "choose one" idea was dumb. Yes, I get that they want "Horde vs. Alliance" to be a flavorful aspect of Hearthstone. However, I don't think that aspect of the game is top of mind for …

Understandable, but not excusable. They need to have someone on staff who looks at every decision from the player's perspective.

That destroys any prestige of owning golden/diamond reward cards that cannot be crafted.

I don't care about such things, but apparently some people do, and it seems Blizzard definitely does.

What is the Alterac Valley Meta going to be?

Quote From FortyDust

It's because Warlock has too much healing. I've been saying this since Barrens.

One of the main points of Warlock is that it uses Health as a resource. …

Honestly, I think it is too early to decide whether or not OTK Warlock is an issue. It absolutely crumples to Libram Paladin and Quest Mage, and I imagine once …

The Early Top Overall Cards in Alterac Valley Showcase That Warlock is Remarkably Popular

Dekkster has it featured in a video. I'm sure he's not the only one.

Trump played his own version, but I would not recommend that.

In other words, Stormwind-era Warlock.

If you can't think of another way to use it, you probably shouldn't craft it.

What is the Alterac Valley Meta going to be?

I've run into no older decks so far, so it's still hard to gauge how well they hold up against the new stuff.

Nice to see people experimenting, though! I've seen several creative attempts that are not on any …

Hearthstone Known Issues Update - Mercenaries XP Nerf is a Bug, Collection Achievements Being Investigated

Isn't this exactly what happened when they gave out [card]Flightmaster Dungar[/card] before the launch of Stormwind? Maybe "third time's a charm" when next expansion rolls around ...

In the End, We Were Not United in Stormwind - Will Questlines Remain at the Forefront?

That vocal minority has been persistent in holding on to the "dead by turn 7" talking point that has gradually become less and less true with each round of nerfs. It's pretty clear that a lot of the detractors haven't …

Dean's Features Pitch to the Hearthstone Team - Selling Cards, Tournaments, Deck Tracker, Naxxramas, & More

Why are people so resistant to just giving auto-squelchers what they want? Why come up with all these half-measures and compromises?

If someone says they don't like emotes, take them at their word. There's no need to pick it …

Dean's Features Pitch to the Hearthstone Team - Selling Cards, Tournaments, Deck Tracker, Naxxramas, & More

Your inexperience must be with online forums, not Hearthstone itself.

There is a very vocal minority of tinfoil hat wearers in the Hearthstone community, and they are convinced that anything that causes them to lose a game MUST be …

Mages Are Going Big on Spells in Fractured in Alterac Valley - Hearthstone Card Review & Theorycraft Deck

[quote from="article"]Build a Snowman should be useful in a meta that cares more about value and minion combat and gaining slow advantages over the course of the game. In other words: it's a very good Arena card, but not …

Celestalon's Hearthstone Community Q&A #1 - Old Keyword to Return in the Future, Scabbs Fingers Mistake, EDM Playlists, & More

"It would be weird to have Illidan playing Illidan"?

What? This happens ALL THE TIME in Hearthstone.

Confirmed: The developers do not actually play the game.

Hearthstone Duels Has 15 New Passive Treasures - Here’s What We Think About Them and How They Can Be Used

Surely it's better to save the Tonk-Death Games combo for turn 3 when you know the tonk won't be destroyed before you can exploit it?

How to Complete the United in Stormwind Mage, Paladin, and Priest XP Achievements

I tried and tried for Instant Gratification at the start of the expansion, but it never came together.

Today, I was just randomly playing my own Priest Questline deck (not the one above), and it happened. I had forgotten …

Can anyone possibly still care about coins once they've reached high ranks?

It is possible that this reward structure doesn't make a lot of sense.

The only thing worse than reacting to unfounded speculation is publishing it in the first place.
