Dean Ayala's Dream Land & Community Q&A #15 - Future Game Goals, Hero Cards, Blizzard Turnover, Progression

I love that Dean closed with “congrats on winning that Yugioh tournament.” I’m sure he did it because the other person actually won one, but it sounds so perfectly memey. I hope Hearthstone players start shutting down conversations by congratulating …

7 Strongest Standard Decks for Your Late April Hearthstone Ladder Climb

Agreed. Anyone who wants to play this deck (and you should!) needs to check out VS’ recommended deck list. I don’t agree with it completely (especially their choice to cut Playmaker), but it’s a great starting point.

Valeera's Bag of Burgled Spells

Damn it. All three of my daily quests could be cleared by playing three Priest games, and I was looking forward to doing it quickly in a Brawl. Instead, we get one where everyone has to play Rogue.

Women to Get More Representation in Hearthstone Events Going Forward; Kripparrian & RegisKillbin Replaced in the Crossroads Inn-vitational

Remember, this is an invitational. The people in it didn’t win their place through pure skill. Blizzard chose them as part of a strategy to grow and guide the community. Those choices have unconsciously favored white men for years, and …

Dean Ayala's Community Q&A #14 - Pandaria, Pickable & Custom Game Boards, Nozdormu Quest, Paladins & Meta

I came here to say the same thing.

Look, game development is hard. I’m going to be understanding if the release date slips or if the team doesn’t want to talk much about it. But in this case, the …

Today's Legends of Runeterra Anniversary Celebration Login Gift is a Garen Emote

I hope the Braum emote is still used to say “hello” or “I’m playing Braum!” I agree that it’s fine if this new emote replaces the “I’m trying to tilt you” meme. Partly because this one is just so pitiful …

Sir Annoy-O the Annoying Alternate Paladin Hero is Back in the Hearthstone Shop

They’re offering more optional things to buy if you want. The price is clear up front, as is the thing you are buying. If you don’t want it, the cost to simply play the game is the same or better …

Is Hearthstone's Sir Annoy-O Paladin Hero Skin Making a Return Soon?

But what if...you DID have to buy 20 Witchwood packs to get this skin? Wouldn’t that be wonderfully annoying?

Alternate Card Art Finally in Hearthstone? Future Diamond Cards Might Get Special Treatment

Diamond cards feel weird to me, and part of the reason is that there are two per set. One of them is locked behind an expensive achievement that most people can’t even think about getting. The other is part of …

Meet Hearthstone's Mercenaries! Blizzard Releases Backstories on the 10 New Characters

Strange. Rokara’s three pictures match the three hero portraits that you get in the battle pass. But the other two heroes in the battle pass only match pictures 1 and 3. Portrait #2 is different for Xyrella and Kurtrus.

Rokara's Warrior Book of Mercenaries Datamined - Bosses, Decks, and Voicelines

I haven’t enjoyed Hearthstone’s single player games, but I’m cautiously optimistic about this. (So much so that I skipped the spoilers in this article.)

In my opinion, Warcraft lore is REALLY boring. I actually get less interested in cards …

Mage and Paladin are Dominating Hearthstone's Forged in the Barrens Meta With Over 50% of Decks Played

The most worrying thing is that there’s a class with a worse win rate than Priest. That’s how you know things are unbalanced. The Priest’s core identity is being challenged!

Legends of Runeterra Will Only Have 10 Regions, Balance, Patches, Dev, & More - Riot Dovagedys Dev Interview Recap

I can’t find the quotes right now, but I’ve heard the designers say that they do plan to add their own champions eventually. I think they just want to start each region with established champions. That makes sense to me …

Urf Cosmetics Are Coming to Legends of Runeterra + Big Balance Changes! Patch 2.5.0 Notes

Great balance changes! I agree with everyone who thinks these are coming too infrequently, but I’m very happy with the decisions made here.

The Lab of Legends changes are also great, though I feel like this is just the …

Heads Up, Your Daily and Weekly Quests Will Not Be Reset Once The New Rewards Track Arrives

I completed enough quests last night to get me to 10,000 gold. 100 free packs on launch day! (But I accidentally completed 5 Ranked Wins with that last game, so I’m actually close to 102.)

Legends of Runeterra Will Only Have 10 Regions, Balance, Patches, Dev, & More - Riot Dovagedys Dev Interview Recap

Thanks. I’ve been assuming they had some plan in place - when they announced the system of new “sets” every 6 months and “expansions” every 2 months, they even said they this terminology would be important for future changes in …

Legends of Runeterra Will Only Have 10 Regions, Balance, Patches, Dev, & More - Riot Dovagedys Dev Interview Recap

I’m very concerned about the how the game will work with (or without) rotations. I agree that it’s a tricky issue, and any option will have pros and cons. Specific regions and champions mean so much to players that it’s …

Reviewing Hearthstone's New Paladin Cards Arriving in Forged in the Barrens

[quote from="Article"]Paladin Secrets have received a whole other purpose with card cycling[/quote]

This makes perfect sense. Despite their bad reputation, Paladin cards have always been very strong for their cost. The problem is that you can’t build a strategy …
