    Next Arena rotation will happen in less than a week. On June 3rd to be exact!

    (source)

    New drafting pool will contain these sets:

    • Basic
    • Classic
    • Goblins vs. Gnomes
    • The Grand Tournament
    • Karazhan
    • The Boomsday Project
    • Rise of Shadows

    Free Arena Ticket for Unfinished Run

    Since the old sets are rotating, the "old" decks should get retired which means we should get an arena ticket for our unfinished run.

    Now keep in mind, this is the first time such rotation happens, so we dont know exactly if the old decks will get retired for sure and/or if we get the Arena Ticket for unfinished run. Logic dictates that it should be yes on both accounts, but until next week, we cannot be 100% sure, so keep that in mind!

    Side note: even tho the rotation happens in the middle of the season and many of you might not need/want more ROS packs, it is still cheaper dust per gold value than if you bought packs in a shop for 100g, so id recommend doing it either way.


    /edit: Blizzard confirmed that we will be getting a Free Arena Ticket for unfinished run this time around. There could be like 1% chance it is cause of the bug with the countdown, so still not 100% it will happen next time around, but we will have to see :) Go start your runs ppl!

    Also, Flux added a quick function (in the most basic way for now) to select multiple card sets in the Card Search, so we are able to use that for searching Arena cards from the current rotation easily and use more filter parameters with that! Hallelujah!

    Select sets with SHIFT+click / CTRL+click:

    I would assume you only need one spot open, but who knows.

    As Flux said, just ask and we will do it for you, having an option to change your user name on a whim for everyone would bring some undesirable outcomes in the long run. Hope you understand.

    Im gonna lock this thread and leave a link to the name change thread here, just so we get things a bit organized.

    Finalized my thoughts on the rest of the cards (Rare, Common). So far it seems like a lot of cards are gonna be very good for arena. Some really powerful effects and lots of card generation. This will be interesting.

    Iv been a bit slow with reviews this time around, so i am adding my thoughts on all cards at once (lol) to my review post. Added legendaries and epics, tomorrow i will continue with rares and commons. Stay tuned! :) One thing is certain tho, i am so hyped about the arena, cant wait!

    Why spell hunter? Spell hunter is all about not having minions in the deck. Also i doubt you care about if what you would summon is a beast or not, spell hunter aint about beast synergy too much. Also it is waaaaaaaay too heavy of a card for that deck.

    It is pretty much an espensive Vex Crow, so i dont see this being played in constructed. But it will be quite a good card in arena.

    Aha! I remembered which card did this remind me of. Thief of Futures from The Taverns of Time arena event that added some arena exclusive cards into the mix.

    How much do you want to bet that the flavor text for Barista Lynchen will have something to do with someone's misspelled name ?:D

    Oh, where are the days when the 6-slot was the shit :D All the best minions were 6-cost and you could not decide which one to put in your deck, there were so many! (cause there werent many options :D) Maybe they r feeling nostalgic :)

    Seems like a pretty good value generator. Decent enough stats too that you can just slap him down on curve without too much of a worry.

    I mean

    I did read the explanation, and I still didn't get it. I still don't get it. It's so jarring, and there are so many concepts stuffed into it, and it still reminds me of my time as a child in 2006-10. I didn't think the 'fluffy' term in card reveals where the full name was not available was particularly defining for hearthpwn, and I don't know why it needs to be transferred to this website other than personal preference. Obviously it's an admin decision, but if you're going to go that route at least make the website fit around it.

    Its not a hpwn thing, rather a Flux thing :D Obviously this is early stages and beside avatar and occasional banner, you dont see the potential, but we will get there!
