Competition Theme: Are You Prepared?

The Demon Hunters are upon us! Sadly, they won't have cards from any previous expansions, so it's up to us to make some for them.

• You must create a Demon Hunter …

Quote From Devizz

As for not being able to predict the hero power, what you're saying is true but think of it in a different way - there are 3 possible outcomes so you can somehow predict them …

Quote From Almaniarra

 

1-) They first said that UI is limiting them to add new play mode, then they've added Tavern Brawl with same UI.
2-) After that, They said that UI is limiting …

The thing is, new [card]Holy Smite[/card] is a much better Control tool. Losing the ability to target face is tiny in the face of a full extra point of damage, in my opinion.

I like that they've made it …

When a minion goes Dormant, it will lose any buffs it had on it. When it reawakens it'll be a base copy of the minion.

I absolutely love this kind of teaser - it's still incredibly vague, but each piece of information is just specific enough to excite somebody.

Dinosaur Turtle, for example, is clearly just for me :D

Oh absolutely - I recreated the card to add to our database - but in that case why didn't they just change [card]Bogstrok Clacker[/card] to be consistent with that?

I mean, in reality it doesn't matter at all, but still …

Never surprised, but ever hopeful :D

'random ones' vs 'random minions'

Please Blizzard, some spare consistency? Just a tad, for your good pal Shadows.

The anger is stemming from the lack of clarity about what perks - if any - will be available purely from purchasing packs.

If you can no longer get any perks from purchasing packs, this is a strict downgrade …

It's a fairly high price if you play game modes other than Battlegrounds, where you'd be using the cards from those card packs. To those players, the perks were essentially free.

It says that players "no longer have to purchase card packs" which makes me believe that the option to obtain perks via card packs is still there. I can't confirm that, however.

I do know that the Tavern Pass …

All 12 of the non-Basic cards feature a previously unseen watermark, presumably the one for the upcoming expansion.

As far as I can tell, we haven't seen any of their Classic cards yet, which is very exciting.

Competition Theme: Ménagerie à Trois

For this competition, we want you to care about minion types (or tribes, or whatever you want to call them).

• You must create a minion with a minion type
  • The accepted …

Personally, I don't think that they would have announced the stream today if there was any indication from higher-ups that this policy was going to be implemented - which there must have been.

They've built this up far too …

I've got to assume that it is that important, given they haven't told us anything yet.

They've said they're sharing more than ever before - maybe there's some big change coming that would be spoiled by showing us anything …

They've never changed how many sets they release in a year - they've fluctuated between expansions and adventures, but it's always been three new releases a year.

And, to be completely transparent, Whispers is the exception; the previous year …

I really don't think it restricts design all that much. Charge certainly did, because you could end up with the potential for OTKs, but I don't see any issue with Rush.

I'm struggling to come up with a single …

Instead of thinking of it as 'Can't attack Heroes', think of it as 'Can attack minions'. Giving something Rush that can already attack this turn doesn't do anything because it can already attack minions.

After all, the first interpretation …

Lackeys are also rotating cards. I'm saying that I don't think any of the cards mentioned are too powerful to be a card in the Basic or Classic set.

Too complicated for Basic, sure, but too powerful? I don't …
