Blizzard Makes it Official - Nozdormu Day is the 15th of Every Month

The whole point of the new Nozdormu is that it's voluntary. It's pushing things too far if you're trying to make people feel like they have to do it, or missing out if they don't.

I'm not a big fan of this philosophy. I'd much rather see them getting out in front of clearly problematic archetypes instead of waiting for …

 It's actually the first time I enjoy playing DH.

I will second that.

Spell Post Priest Budget Deck List & Guide - Hearthstone Budget Deck Breakdown

I know it's epic, but hear me out -- [card]Crossroads Watch Post[/card] is a LOT of fun to play against Mages. Every time I play one, there's this awkward hesitation, maybe one feeble attempt to remove it, then concede.

C'Thun is the worst possible win condition against Warlock.

Hearthstone Standard Meta Update - Mage Drops in Winrate and Playrate, Paladins Cruising, Hunters Dominating, Warlocks ???

Not really. If other strong classes are experimenting more successfully than Mage, what I said still holds. And I do believe Paladin, for example, has plenty of room to experiment because the class overall has extremely strong tools.

Experimentation …

Hearthstone Standard Meta Update - Mage Drops in Winrate and Playrate, Paladins Cruising, Hunters Dominating, Warlocks ???

A deeper dive will reveal that the low CLASS win rate for Mage is due to people testing the waters for other archetypes, such as Freeze or Wildfire (or both). Once people see that those still don't hold a candle …

Our Thoughts on Hearthstone's First Forged in the Barrens Balance Update Coming on April 13

No, it was accurate. It has never happened before. There's always a first time.

Kargal Battlescar Will Become Eligible for a Full Dust Refund Later This Week

What I meant was, they got away with making a card so interdependent and didn't have to nerf it because the package overall was just very meh.

Meta after nerfs
Quote From PopeNeia

It has barely been 12 hours and you guys are already complaining. Chill and let the meta settle a bit more.

The complaint is that there is no "settling" to be done …

Hearthstone's Pen Flinger Can No Longer Attack Face, Watch Posts Nerfed, and More! Forged in the Barrens Nerfs Arrive Tomorrow

Because this is not a twitch game. It's a strategic turn-based game where deliberate consideration of all the angles is more important than speed. Not to mention, there are members of the player base with actual disabilities, for whom high-apm …

Kargal Battlescar Will Become Eligible for a Full Dust Refund Later This Week

It does make some sense, considering Kargal cannot be played at all without the nerfed cards, and the nerfed cards totally suck now. But I wouldn't expect to see this kind of generosity very often where indirect nerfs are concerned.

Meta after nerfs

It's not exactly scientific or anything, but the ONLY difference I have personally noticed is that Rogue has been replaced with Control Warlock (as predicted).

This is not an improvement. WTG, Blizz.

Game Mode Needed: Mirror Match

Seems like a niche-within-a-niche to me. Wild is already a minority of players, and when you whittle that down to a specific archetype, you're looking at some pretty long queue times, not to mention all the development resources they'd have …

Sir Annoy-O the Annoying Alternate Paladin Hero is Back in the Hearthstone Shop

They know that the people who missed it and still want it are willing to pay. Simple as that.

That's literally why anything is the price it is, unless regulated by outside forces.

Uhh, yes? That's the only reason they are selling it for gold at all. Cash will always be the better deal if you are willing to spend it. The f2p life isn't supposed to be easy.

Yeah, those gold prices are pretty steep, but at least the option is there.
