BlizzConline Hearthstone Developer Q&A Panel Live Recap

Its appearance on the official roapmap doesn't count as confirmation? If you just want confirmation of the pricing, I'm sure you have nothing to worry about. They are aware that the Races mini-expansion pricing was very well-received.

The New Free Legendary, Shadow Hunter Vol'jin, is Here! Will It Make A Larger Impact On The Meta?

I'm already using it in two of mine, and it's fantastic.

At the very least, it's a strong tech against Paladin for decks that struggle in that match-up. When you're not against Paladin, you can still use it to …

Shaman's Hero Power Gets a New Totem - Here's Everything Shamanistic You Need to Know So Far

It might be fun to bring back [card]Wrath of Air Totem[/card] as a Core card someday, maybe with the cost buffed to 0 mana.

High Abbess Alura Is Being Nerfed - Here Are Our Thoughts on The Change to Our Priest and Paladin Friend

Because a lot more decks have ways to deal with Hunter cards and Nitroboost. A turn 4 Alura + Coin was an unstoppable game-winner the vast majority of the time. Nitroboost doesn't even come close to that.

Hearthstone's Sylvanas and Thunder King Heroes Are Returning to the Shop

Slowly moving toward the few portraits I don't have. I can wait, Blizzard. I can wait.

Everything You Need to Know About Hearthstone's Mercenaries Game Mode

They confirmed during the reveal that there will be a PvP aspect to Mercenaries even though its primary focus is PvE.

BlizzConline's Hearthstone Year of the Gryphon Deep Dive Panel Live Recap - More New Cards

For Core cards that are brand-new to the game, I believe the plan is to remove them completely if they don't make the cut for next year's Core. The whole point of Wild is to let you keep using the …

Which hero has a power you'd actually consider "interesting," though? (Other than Warlock, which everyone agrees has always been too strong.)

Our Initial Thoughts on The Three New Dragon Aspects Coming to Hearthstone's Core Set in Year of the Gryphon

This is exactly what needed to be done -- look at Classic cards and fearlessly redesign them with the benefit of six years of Hearthstone under their belts.

In every case, the new dragon fills the same purpose as …

Everything You Need to Know About Hearthstone's Mercenaries Game Mode

It would be wise of Blizzard to inform us soon about what the for-pay option(s) will be. (You are dreaming if you think it's going to be totally free.)

The longer they wait, the more butt-hurt the community whiners …

High Abbess Alura Is Being Nerfed - Here Are Our Thoughts on The Change to Our Priest and Paladin Friend

There is nothing sad about this. Cards that have tutor functionality tend to break the meta. It has happened too many times. Team 5 needs to learn to be a lot more careful when designing cards that are so obviously …

BlizzConline's Hearthstone Year of the Gryphon Deep Dive Panel Live Recap - More New Cards

No Core set card is a direct replacement of any Classic or Basic card. ALL Legacy cards are moving out, and only a small number are immediately returning as Core. This change is much bigger than "Edwin is out and …

BlizzConline's Hearthstone Year of the Gryphon Deep Dive Panel Live Recap - More New Cards

I don't think anyone ever stated or implied that they were buffing it. They said they were reworking the class, including the hero power.

The spell damage totem was a LOT worse than Searing Totem if you weren't using …

BlizzConline's Hearthstone Year of the Gryphon Deep Dive Panel Live Recap - More New Cards

I don't think you understand what "stealing" and "forced" actually mean.

2000 gold for a guaranteed set of 37 cards is about a million times better than opening 20 randomized packs. If you don't see that, you are very …

BlizzConline's Hearthstone Year of the Gryphon Deep Dive Panel Live Recap - More New Cards

I think maybe the watermarks are changing? I wouldn't worry about it too much. Everyone gets all the Core cards for free.

If a card was in the Classic (or Basic) set at launch, it will be obtainable in …

Hearthstone Patch 19.6 - High Abbess Alura Nerfed, Barrens Pre-Order, Darkmoon Prizes is Over, Duels Balance, and More!

Yes, yes, but they had to TIME the things so they would happen simultaneously, so that when the guy in the video says, "Log in today to get these bonuses," people are actually able to do that. This did not …

Hearthstone Patch 19.6 - High Abbess Alura Nerfed, Barrens Pre-Order, Darkmoon Prizes is Over, Duels Balance, and More!

No. I'm not sure why Blizzard is pretending to be able to do two things at once. There's no way in hell they can run BlizzConline and release a patch at the same time.

(EDIT: "Run" in the sense …

The Wild And Rotating Cards That We Want To See Added To Hearthstone's Upcoming New Core Set

I would not be able to select the best cards because I don't know what's in upcoming expansions and have no idea what the meta will be like. The whole point of the Core set is that it complements the …

The Wild And Rotating Cards That We Want To See Added To Hearthstone's Upcoming New Core Set

For example, any card that significantly warped the meta during its original run would not be a good choice for Core. We already spent two years seeing such cards shape the game, so it's not exactly fresh or even interesting …
