My stats tell me that I have 3600+ wins in Duels and till date I am still busy trying to complete the related achievements which are at 75% now. Will Team 5 get rid of these achievements as well perhaps?
Really seems like they are actively axing all game modes which do not generate enough revenue. Where does it stop though, I wonder?
Wow anchorm4n, that is some mighty impressive statistics keeping of yours! I used to think I was a stats nerd, but this is next level compared to my spreadsheets. Kudos!
As for my personal goal for 2024 regarding Hearthstone (in its anniversary year), I am still trying to get as close to the maximum percentages for all achievements.
The last Battlegrounds achievement I have to complete is Spicy Pretzel Mustard and I will need all the luck in the world to do so.
Getting four out of the five achievements categories to 100% is almost within reach, but the last one will sadly never reach 100% because I simply do not enjoy playing Arena.
I am pretty confident they will give us dust refunds for the Warlock and Neutral excavate cards. Is it really a lot of dust though? Looking back at the wildseed nerfs, we got dust refunds for all related cards which is worth a bit more dust actually.
Honestly, I would even be perfectly okay if they would exclude Tram Conductor Gerry from the dust refund.
I made a deck with only 7 cards, thinking "oh sweet, I'll have so many copies of these awesome cards" but no.
Put a decent amount of cards in your deck, or you will have a hand of Reflections with nothing to play!
Even with a 12 card deck and after the mulligan, there is still a high chance of getting a full hand of Shadow Reflections. I simply conceded and started another game. With Astral Automaton and Priest cards that copy and resurrect this minion over and over again, a sure win is bound to happen. I got the Standard pack and never turned back because this one-and-done brawl is pretty dumb.
[Progression] We’ve adjusted the amount of Rewards Track experience gained from playing in Mercenaries.
So they finally decided to adjust amount of XP which can be farmed in Mercenaries. We all knew this was bound to happen eventually, but still sad when it happens. I fear it will be a very significant reduction.
Although you are probably right about the F2P aspect, for people like me who are only interested in a "free" hero portrait it is better to have the gold cost as low as possible which seems to be a 1000 gold.
I still have some snow left 😁
Same.

Long time no see by the way, welcome back ☺️

w00t!! ❄️🥶
EDIT: Fixed!
Cho'gall, Twilight Chieftain gets buffed by adding the following whacky anomaly to its pool:
Anomaly - Ogre-Draw
Whenever a player draws a card, 50% chance to draw a copy from the opponent's deck instead.
😆
It seems that the number of weekly hero skins purchasable with gold has doubled. Our gold stash will deplete twice as fast now.
OMFG 😱
The upside is that Snowflipper Rexxar will probably return to the shop much sooner. Maybe even in time for this holiday season.
Same here, I even had to change my gold spending strategy. I bought less Badlands packs with gold in order to buy more skins later.
I am… READY!
😋
Fatigue OTK Warlock is even more fun! 🤠
Yay! This is definitely the best news of today. I cannot wait for the next OoC holiday event to start once more ❄️☃️🥶

Condition should be Showdown in the Badlands cards

I would not mind spending even less gold of course, I like your suggestion!
