Runeterra Patch 1.5 Brings a Couple of Balance Changes, the Vault Moves to Thursdays, and New Game Mode: Labs

Good catch. I see the same thing.

I think that most of us will come out ahead this way. If you can get to rank 5 (4000 XP) in 2 days, you’ll earn a random champion and an extra …

Trial by Felfire, the Ashes of Outland Story, Releases Today!

Lots of people try to earn every card back, even if they won’t use them all in decks. Others are so focused on earning golden heroes that they keep grinding for hours after it stops being fun. And of course, …

Ha ha. I’ve been supporting you on Patreon for a year, but it wasn’t until I won a month of Premium that I noticed I’d never linked this account to it. I just fixed that :)

Runeterra 1.3 Patch Arrives This Week - Card Text Clarity Updates, Expedition Archetypes, and Plenty of Bug Fixes

Is there an article anywhere that explains how LoR’s ranked system works? Most of it is self-explanatory, and this blog post filled in a lot of the gaps. (I had not found a list of tiers or an explanation of …

Climb the Ladder This June With the Most Popular Legends of Runeterra Decks + Birthday Giveaway

I just started playing recently, and (other than tweaking the starter decks a bit) the first deck I crafted was the Midrange Bannerman.

At the moment, Fiora is my favorite champion. For me, at least, she demonstrated …

BlizzCon 2020 Has Been Cancelled

.04%? Do you mean, like, .04% of the total population of the state? California has a low death count so far because they did a good job of KEEPING people from getting COVID.

Last I heard, New York City …

Runeterra's Patch 1.2 Offers Balance Updates, Expeditions Archetype Changes, and New Personalization Options

I’m also new to Runeterra, so I follow the news updates but don’t have many worthwhile comments to make. But I’ll help fill up the comments section :)

  • I love the explanations we get for every balance change, …

Standard Meta Report #29 - Top Hearthstone Decks April 5, 2020 - April 12, 2020

I agree that Plot Twist Warlock has potential, especially if it can get a little more support later this year. However, I wouldn’t read too much into you beating other Warlocks at Diamond 10. I’ve been slowly climbing from D10 …

Tomorrow, April 1, Hearthstone's Ranked Play Gets an Overhaul - Leagues, Stars, and Rewards Explained

You get the “latest expansion” packs when the month ends (just like the old system’s rewards), so the new expansion will be out.

Tomorrow, April 1, Hearthstone's Ranked Play Gets an Overhaul - Leagues, Stars, and Rewards Explained

A couple important corrections:

Your multiplier at the start of a month is one less than the number of ranked floor you reached the previous month. That means that reaching Legend only guarantees a 10x multiplier. The maximum possible …

The Ultimate Ashes of Outland & Year of the Phoenix Recap

A new game mode and an achievement system?! Those are more exciting (to me, anyway) than any of the other announcements. How did I miss them?

Since there is not even a link to go with those last items, …

Sludge Slurper Confirmed As Being Reverted in Upcoming Unnerfing Hearthstone Patch

I don’t think that Lackey generation feels that random. There is a small, predictable pool of cards to draw from. Of course there is a random event, but it feels less “random” to me than, say, trying to draw 2 …

Sludge Slurper Confirmed As Being Reverted in Upcoming Unnerfing Hearthstone Patch

There are a lot of different opinions about how nerfs should be approached. If you see it differently, that’s fine. But I was very cynical about that round of Shaman nerfs when they were announced, and I was wrong. They …

Sludge Slurper Confirmed As Being Reverted in Upcoming Unnerfing Hearthstone Patch

I like frequent balance adjustments. Leaving the meta stale and ignoring problems is what insults me as a player. Blizzard has gotten more proactive, and if that means there will be occasional course corrections, I think it’s more than fair.

Blizzard Confirms no Standard or Wild Hearthstone Balance Changes Before the Next Expansion - "Meta Looks and Feels Fun"

The Standard meta is enjoyable right now, though I wish Blizzard didn’t consider weeks of the same static meta to be a healthy situation. Changes are fun!

Hearthstone Launches the Mage Bundle - 5 Packs Containing Mage Cards from Standard

This feels like a even worse deal because we’re close to the end of the Standard year. This is the point where we should be getting actual deals on old cards, not more expensive ways to buy them.

The Hearthstone Cards We're Going to Miss When Year of the Dragons Ends - The Boomsday Project Edition

I came to the comments looking for some [card]Zilliax[/card] hate, but this surpasses my hopes. I’m so glad I’m not the only one.

Zilliax is “flexible” in the same way Superman is flexible. He has different powers to call …

The Hearthstone 2020 Community Summit Leaves Frodan in Shock - Big Changes Coming for Hearthstone in 2020

No one thing can make the game relevant for 10 years. I mean, think of how many “things” were necessary to make the game relevant for just a few years. 10 years is a LONG time in gaming.

The Hearthstone 2020 Community Summit Leaves Frodan in Shock - Big Changes Coming for Hearthstone in 2020

My wishlist, more or less in priority order:

  • A new reward system. Despite what everyone says, Daily Quests give you great rewards for your first 2-3 games each day. Now we just need a way to get SOMETHING …
