Give players double XP (or triple, even) for playing that class on any mode. Keep the ladder rankings unchanged. 

Ugh. Usually when people complain about Tavern Brawl, I say it’s meant it be a fun casual mode. It appeals mainly to players who don’t give their opinions on online forums, and that’s ok. Not everything has to be for …

Thanks. That’s a great guide! Much better than the Blizzard blog post I linked below. 

The best resource I know of is the old blog post when Blizzard announced the special commands: https://playhearthstone.com/en-us/news/20056284

I agree that we need a better one, especially if new items like “refund” are being added. 

If you’re calculating the value of this deal, I recommend that you don’t think about the cost of individual packs or Legendaries. Instead, think about what you need to have fun with the game.

If you accept that a …

Are people asking Dean about the charges Blizzard is facing? I assume they are, and I’m sure that he’s in an awkward position and has to watch what he says, but I’d really like to hear more from him on …

I appreciate that they’ve put the amount of gold that they feel is right on the track. If they made more rewards give gold, they’d make up for it by reducing other rewards. Everyone can have opinions about whether the …

If you draw the nuts and your opponent applies basically no pressure to you, then you can finish this quest on turn 5 or 6 and close out the game on 7. But in addition to playing the Quest, the …

I’ve seen a few comments implying that this is the end of it or that other people will avoid responsibility because Brack took the blame. That’s not true at all. It doesn’t end the court case or the calls for …

One point I want to make: A lot of people are still unsure if Blizzard really did anything wrong, since no court has ruled on this yet. Some of these people are saying that this is a cynical move by …

Here's my entry. I have a special love for cheap Token Druid decks, because that was the source of my first major climb up the ladder when I was still new and didn't have many legendaries. Hopefully this option is …

This is the question I’ve been wanting answered for …

I’ve never been a Warlock player, but once Quest Hunter gets nerfed I’m going to have to try this just so I can make a deck named “Anetheron bites the dust”.

Edit: I just learned that WilmerHale, the outside firm they’re contracting with, is known for helping companies fight unionization. That certainly puts a disturbing spin on this issue.

My original comment:

Thank you. Those are very good points. …

I’m very curious about how well the alternate bartenders will sell. Most cosmetics in games like this are things your opponent will see as well, but bartenders are for your eyes only. Will people still want to pay for them? 

Yes, and I’m more excited about this than I am about the whole newsdump from Hearthstone.

justice does not work like that. "Innocent until proven guilty"

“Innocent until proven guilty” is a very important principle. If the State of California announced that they were going to skip the …

To our knowledge, no one from the Hearthstone team has been implicated. I don’t believe that the published information is clear about identifying everyone, and it’s hard to believe that there is NO cultural bleed between teams, so who knows …

I think Dean would make a couple other points is this weren’t a rushed Twitter Q&A:

1) Hunter’s power level is fairly consistent. It always has at least a playable deck, but rarely has the very highest WR. If …

Thank you. I appreciated the detail and the links :) I did assume that the last Duels ratings reset was considered a new season, so I’m glad to know that something bigger is coming.

I barely play Duels now, …
