Details on Runeterra's The Path of Champions Mega Event Pass - All Level Unlocks

Wow. The last event gave away the Poppy emote for free, and this one makes Caitlyn free. Are they intentionally giving away the S-tier one each time, or is it just luck?

Riot Teases the Upcoming PVE Mode Coming to Legends of Runeterra - The Path of Champions

This looks very polished, and I’m sure it will be fun to try out. I’m not convinced that it will have the variety and replayability of the modes that it’s replacing, though. I guess we’ll find out soon!

Fairytale Brawl

I don’t get this. Hearthstone has an ok AI. Why didn’t they use it here? It seems like the only factor it uses in its decisions is “what card can I play?” This means that they will play the Coin …

Rogues Are Getting an Edwin VanCleef Hero Skin in a Future Hearthstone Shop Bundle Alongside a Card Back

I agree with that completely :) Rogue should have more skins, even though I’ll probably keep using Scabbs.

Oh, of course. I would have been shocked if Brandon replied to say I changed his mind.

You should count Scabbs, because the Mercenary characters are better than the Warcraft characters.

Good, Bad, and Ugly: Our First Impressions of Hearthstone Mercenaries

Mercs have the guaranteed legendary in your first 10 packs, but after that there is NO pity timer.

Mercenaries Launch and Welcome Bundles Now Available - Get Legendary Mercenaries & Packs for Cheap!

There IS a fairly large contingent of players who would make one $10 purchase but not two $5 purchases. Psychology is funny like that.

Mercenaries Launch and Welcome Bundles Now Available - Get Legendary Mercenaries & Packs for Cheap!

I don’t know a lot about the psychology behind F2P games, but my guess is that they found that $5 deals are counterproductive. If you buy it, then a week later when a $20 sale appears you’ll decide you can …

Runeterra's 2.17 Patch Adds Six Battle Academia Skins, a Stadium Board, and More Cosmetics

On paper, Saltwater Scourge is everything I would have asked for (except for more variety in bosses and characters). I was surprised that I didn’t get into it.

I think these might be the problems, starting with the most …

Runeterra's 2.17 Patch Adds Six Battle Academia Skins, a Stadium Board, and More Cosmetics

I’m… hopeful? But also nervous that they’ll take away something fun.

The original Lab of Legends is really fun and I’m surprised by how much I enjoy replaying it. Saltwater Scourge never clicked with me, though. If Reddit can …

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Community Q&A #31 - Bigger Expansion to End 2022, Warcraft Diversity, Battlegrounds Streamer Heroes, and More

To get good stats for higher ranks, I usually look at Vicious Syndicate. It’s not updated as frequently, but it shows you stats for high Diamond, Legend, and top Legend. Their last report before the nerfs showed Quest Mage at …

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Community Q&A #31 - Bigger Expansion to End 2022, Warcraft Diversity, Battlegrounds Streamer Heroes, and More
Quote From dapperdog

I don't think its the case. Because after all, quest mage is still alive and kicking, and as far as standard is concerned that's basically one of the most hated deck right now. Face hunter …

Hearthstone Mercenaries Goes Full Pokemon - The Training Hall Brings Daycare to Level Up Your Mercenaries Automatically

I don’t see this as a way to skip playing so much as a way to help your lower-level characters catch up to the rest. I like that - if I reach the point where I’m using high-level characters in …

Hearthstone Mercenaries Mixtape - 7 New Songs Are Coming in the New Mode

Oh good. The app size only doubled last month, and I was really hoping they’d push it farther. Sometimes my phone still manages to download it on the first try.

Hearthstone's Shadowlands Hero Skin Bundle Preview - 4 New Hero Skins Coming

These articles are full of comments from people saying whether or not they want to buy the cosmetics. That seems perfectly appropriate for the topic.

Hearthstone's Shadowlands Hero Skin Bundle Preview - 4 New Hero Skins Coming

Yes, I read it. I didn’t see any complaints. It’s fine to choose to be a completionist, it’s fine to choose to go F2P, and it’s fine to pick a place between those extremes. The only things that wouldn’t be …

Gala Medivh is Coming to Party in Hearthstone Battlegrounds as a Bartender Replacement Skin

That complaint is even more ridiculous because Blizzard wasn’t behind this news blitz in any way. It’s just how OOC decided to present the information that they researched without any help from Blizzard. (Presumably because OOC knows their readers want …

Hearthstone's Shadowlands Hero Skin Bundle Preview - 4 New Hero Skins Coming

OP’s note sounded completely fair to me. I’m also sick of all the negative comments people are posting about the game, and I’d have no patience for things like “greedy Blizzard is trying to suck us dry with these cosmetics.” …
