My wish for weekly quests
Quote From meisterz39

Varied quests encourages playing between formats, which is good for Blizzard.

It really, really doesn't, though, with the sole exception of the quest you cannot reroll. As long as a reroll option …

How is Hunter Going to Perform in Hearthstone's Year of the Gryphon? Core Set Review
Quote From GameTheory345

Almost everyone on Reddit argues that the Tracking change is a nerf, and the way they justify it just sounds like people who try to make themselves look better than they are because they understand …

You might be surprised at how soon you get over these feelings.

How is Shaman Going to Perform in Hearthstone's Year of the Gryphon? Core Set Review

I don't find any of this confusing at all. Given all the Nature (and normal) Spell Damage flapping about, I'm very happy that [card]Wrath of Air Totem[/card] and [card]Lava Burst[/card] are out. If they were still in, Burn Shaman would …

How is Hunter Going to Perform in Hearthstone's Year of the Gryphon? Core Set Review

Actually, discussions about this card are pointless because there's no right or wrong answer. The utility of discard vs Discover depends largely on the archetype and deckbuilding. People go around and around for days because they can't even agree on …

New Hunter Spell - Tracking

The deck-thinning argument is pretty weak IMO, depending on how your deck is built.

Assuming you mulligan for early-game plays, and assuming a fairly even curve distribution beyond 3 mana, chances are not super-small that your old Tracking would …

How is Warlock Going to Perform in Hearthstone's Year of the Gryphon? Core Set Review

Literally every streamer: [card]Ritual of Doom[/card] may not be good because you'll never get that many minions to stick.

Me (yelling at my TV): [card]Fiendish Circle[/card] is a thing!

There's no way they put cards like these in …

Alexstrasza, Nozdormu, and Onyxia All Received Remakes - How Well Will They Do?

But I can opt out of the new Noz, so his bugs will never affect me personally.

Alexstrasza, Nozdormu, and Onyxia All Received Remakes - How Well Will They Do?

Good riddance to the old ones. Alex was too good (in combo decks), Onyxia was too bad, and Noz was too buggy.

New Druid Minion - Nordrassil Druid
Quote From MurlocAggroB
Quote From FortyDust

With [card]Landscaping[/card], it's 3/5 + 2/2 + 2/2 on turn 3 or 4. That is a LOT of pressure.

No [card]Savage Roar[/card], though. I don't know if …

New Druid Minion - Nordrassil Druid

With [card]Landscaping[/card], it's 3/5 + 2/2 + 2/2 on turn 3 or 4. That is a LOT of pressure.

It also lets you Corrupt [card]Moontouched Amulet[/card] and play it the same turn.

New Demon Hunter Spell - Chaos Nova

Someone remind me what the weaknesses of Demon Hunter were supposed to be ... feels like this pretty much sews up the "board clear" gap.

New Paladin Minion - Guardian of Kings

One word takes the card from unplayable to great!

It's now more generally useful than [card]Commencement[/card], so only [card]Lady Liadrin[/card] competes for the slot until we see a 7-drop from Barrens. It's hard to imagine Paladin not running Librams …

Core Set Reactions

My thoughts on individual cards are on their respective discussion pages. I'll use the space here for deletions and my overall reactions.

It feels good to see all of the garbage cards taken out. It also feels good to …

There are way too many bad Warrior cards for this to create. Some aren't even strictly bad, but since Warrior has several different archetypes, you're going to get stuff that …

OK, I'm starting to feel like they are overdoing it on tutor effects.

5 Attack seems to be the sweet spot for Rush, so sure.

There are way too many bad Warrior cards for this to create. Some aren't even strictly bad, but since Warrior has several different archetypes, you're going to get stuff that just doesn't fit your game plan.

New Warlock Minion - Enslaved Fel Lord

Wow, so hard to kill. Seven mana does not seem like enough.
