Hearthstone's Iksar Talks Card Balance & RNG - New Patch Coming Before Expansion 2, Possible Dragoncaster & Rogue's Galakrond Changes

I'd argue the deck cycling is more OP. You wouldn't be seeing so many non-highlander decks using the highlander legendaries if they weren't able to go through their decks so easily. 

In other card games such as Yu-Gi-Oh they …

Hearthstone's Iksar Talks Card Balance & RNG - New Patch Coming Before Expansion 2, Possible Dragoncaster & Rogue's Galakrond Changes

If the pool of dragons is what you're concerned about that is an easy fix. Release 3-4 lower to mid quality dragons and it makes the highrolls less consistent. No need to nerf the cards directly.

Hearthstone's Iksar Talks Card Balance & RNG - New Patch Coming Before Expansion 2, Possible Dragoncaster & Rogue's Galakrond Changes

Got to nerf the reason to run highlander in the first place. I fear they'll nerf the dragons from alex to 1 mana, which imo makes the card pretty terrible to be honest. An Alex with 1 mana dragons played …

Dealing with Sunk Cost Effect in HS

Sometimes you have to just take the plunge and stop 'cold turkey', finding other fun games or hobbies to occupy the time you spent on HS. I haven't quit HS, but I did quit WoW, one of the games I …

The Daily Life of a Level 7 Magical Ooze

Tog's pretty important for getting through your deck quickly, while sometimes dropping some cheap reduced stuff that also lets you play your Galakrond easier for even more cycling. Without him it will feel slower getting the combo together, but if …

Twin Slice is Being Changed in a Patch Tomorrow! Higher Cost but Higher Attack

There's a difference between releasing a few cards that need retuning/reworking and having to nerf almost the entire class set you gave to the players for the game's new class. Imo that's a disaster from a design stand point.

Twin Slice is Being Changed in a Patch Tomorrow! Higher Cost but Higher Attack

Man T5 really failed with introducing DH didn't they? What DH cards haven't they nerfed now?

Super poorly executed and received it seems.

What do you enjoy about the Battlegrounds mode?

I may not like the mode, but I'm curious why those who do enjoy it do so. What do you enjoy about BGs?

What do you hope to see with DH's identity going forward?

The class was released overtuned to make the class attractable and worth playing, and subsequently nerfed multiple times. Obviously we know the class was built with a very aggro oriented identify, but to less successful degrees has seen some control …

Card Nerf - Dragonqueen Alexstrasza
Quote From theo333

It's still not enough. The dragons she generates should be 1-cost.

What would be the point of the card then? When played at 9 mana you're summoning an 8/8 that doesn't affect …

The Confession Thread - we won't judge you!

I actually have this weird habit of wanting to try out some of the old meta top tier decks after they've been nerfed, rotate out, or fall out of favor. Happened with Spiteful Priest too, Cubelock, and Reno Dragon Priest. …

Hearthstone Battlegrounds Patch 17.4 Notes - Pirates Entering BGs, Felfire Festival, Outland Solo Content, and More!

Seems like this patch also fixed the bug where Nozdormu leaving the board on your turn during the rope would reset the rope & your turn.

Unfortunately this kills a couple fun meme decks, but probably good for the …

The Confession Thread - we won't judge you!

I play a lot of meme combo decks and I have fun showing off the combo during the game before pulling off the win. So if I'm wining, but it is by a mile, I'll intentionally delay the game and …

7 Magic the Gathering Cards Banned From Play Due to Racial Depictions

I can see why people have issue with Jihad. However, the KKK reference is confusing because that is very different than the religious christian crusades of european history, which destroyed entire communities of color and termed 'barbarous' white european pagan …

7 Magic the Gathering Cards Banned From Play Due to Racial Depictions

I don't have an opinion on whether the cards are usable or not since I'm not a MtG player. 

What I really don't like is politics being shoved into what I'm sure many actual MtG players use for enjoyment, …

7 Magic the Gathering Cards Banned From Play Due to Racial Depictions

The thing is we can't keep tip toeing around all of the conflict of the real world. People have a good point about not wanting real world problems shoved into our games, which is understandable, but at the same time …

Quote From bananaMurloc

The whole trope/concept of white representing good and life versus black representing evil and death is becoming problematic in many games.

I think this is grossly oversimplifying the symbolism going on in …

7 Magic the Gathering Cards Banned From Play Due to Racial Depictions

Never played MtG so I'm coming at this from an outside perspective not based on any interest in the cards themselves, and if the original art is what is depicted in the above 7 cards the claim there's racism going …

Could EDH Work in Hearthstone?

Sounds like a really interesting mode, but the 50 card limit would be majorly limiting. 50 cards means combo decks will not be a thing at all because you'd never be able to live long enough if you got crucial …
