Revised Awesome Starting Decks for Every Class in Hearthstone's Duels Mode

It's an advantage in the first game or two, but after that, aggro will never beat a control deck, period. And there are plenty of people playing control.

Except that there aren't "plenty of people" even playing Duels, which …

Hearthstone's Darkmoon Faire Mini Set Releases 35 New Cards on January 21, New Cards Available in Packs or For $15

Hoarding packs for the mini-expansion was always kind of dumb, though. The no-duplicates rule was always going to allow you to get the new stuff with minimal gold expenditure anyway.

Still need Darkmoon cards? Open your packs and fill …

Blizzard Discussed Changing Warlock's Hero Power In the Early Hearthstone Days

TBH, they should have spent a LOT more time on hero powers for several classes, and Warlock was far from being the one that needed it most.

But since that's the class we're talking about, sure, let's do this. …

Hearthstone's Darkmoon Faire Mini Set Releases 35 New Cards on January 21, New Cards Available in Packs or For $15

Wouldn't it be lovely if they started pricing all expansions this way? A simple bundle containing all the cards for a fixed price?

I would definitely be first in line if they kicked off the new Hearthstone year like …

The Fist of Reliquary Aggro Shaman Deck List and Guide - Memes and Dreams #3

Yeah, there's no way any Shaman will be able to rely on any weapon until Boggspine rotates out. The nerf wasn't enough to keep people from playing it, which means everyone else is going to tech against it until the …

Opinion: The Current State of Quests in Hearthstone and Its Impact on the Rewards Track

No, you were telling me my opinion and disagreeing with that.

As I said, I actually don't care about XP, but I pointed out Blizzard's position because someone was wondering about it. So then you decided THEIR opinion was …

Which Warcraft Character Could Replace Edwin in Hearthstone's Base Rogue Set? Our Top 7 Lore Picks

I think the concept of replacing him in the Classic set may not even make sense. They say he's rotating out, but also that the Hall of Fame will no longer exist. To me, that implies that we're finally getting …

Opinion: The Current State of Quests in Hearthstone and Its Impact on the Rewards Track

It's not a slot machine fiesta. The cards count as Darkmoon Faire cards, so the no-duplicate rules apply.

I would expect maybe 1 or 2 legendaries, and maybe a handful of epics in such a small set. Collecting all …

Opinion: The Current State of Quests in Hearthstone and Its Impact on the Rewards Track

I will thank you not to tell me what I assume.

I merely brought up the possibility that there are opinions out there that may differ from those expressed in this column, and that no one knows how many …

Edwin VanCleef is Not Being Hall of Famed, Hall of Fame Changing, Major Hearthstone Changes Coming in 2021

On the contrary, they are giving you fair warning that you should go ahead and dust cards that have been nerfed recently.

If they hadn't mentioned this, a bunch of people might have held on to the nerfed cards …

Edwin VanCleef is Not Being Hall of Famed, Hall of Fame Changing, Major Hearthstone Changes Coming in 2021
Quote From sinti
Quote From SLima

Seems like they intend to abolish the Hall of Fame. Since Edwin is rotating then this pretty much means that the entirety of the classic set is getting rotated.

Opinion: The Current State of Quests in Hearthstone and Its Impact on the Rewards Track

The official Blizzard response to this is that there are casual players who appreciate having quests that are easier to complete.

Note that such players are the least likely to visit or post on fansites (or official forums, for …

Hearthstone Rewards Track Patch - Client Updated to Removed End of Track Pack Rewards, Replaced with Gold

If you think they care about keeping the entire player base happy, you might want to be careful about tossing around words like "delusional."

Blizzard cares about keeping paying players happy. They've never shown a ton of concern about …

Blizzard Rolls Out Compensation for Heroic Duels and Questline Experience Bugs

"Hurt"? Really?

Let's say "very mildly inconvenienced" at worst.

The Designs of the Class-Specific Packs Coming From Book of Heroes

Where did this 1-3 classes data come from?

Anyway, Blizzard knows all too well that totally random packs are better for them. They'd never go for a plan that cuts down on the number of packs people have to …

Blizzard Responds to the Hearthstone Rewards Track - Less XP Required, Gold Bonus Next Week, More XP Gains

There's nothing entitled about consumers asking for more

This is true when they are paying consumers. People who don't pay for anything but still ask for demand more are the very …

Hearthstone Rewards Track Patch - Client Updated to Removed End of Track Pack Rewards, Replaced with Gold

Would rather be given $100 a day, every day, or $5,000 at the end of the month? The "feel" of daily rewards may be different, but it's not worth complaining about if you are getting more overall.

Hearthstone Rewards Track Patch - Client Updated to Removed End of Track Pack Rewards, Replaced with Gold

These calculations everyone is so hot about are VERY suspect. There is no way anyone outside of Blizzard has all the information necessary to predict what things will look like 3 months from now. If daily gold is all you …

Hearthstone Rewards Track Patch - Client Updated to Removed End of Track Pack Rewards, Replaced with Gold

Well, good news -- they are also doing events (which were planned all along), which give a lot of additional rewards that the rabble-rousers didn't and couldn't include in their calculations.
