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.
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 :)
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!
Hi, yes, that is one of the things we wish to do in the future. It doesnt have very high priority atm, for obvious reasons, but we have it on our to-do list already! Thanks for the suggestion tho, it is always nice to see that ppl actually want the content we think they might want, so the confirmation is always nice ;-)
It is easy to max out on deck slots, since you make decks to finish daily quests and often the decks you play dont meet the criteria or would take too damn long, so you make a full divine shield paladin or brutal overload shaman etc and ofc you dont delete them right after ... and then your deck slots are gone :D
Yeah, not exactly an innovative idea, tho no one claimed it was :) Obviously many mechanics will eventually make its way to other card games, since they had been done before in older titles. It is not only HS, nor card games in general, who borrow ideas from similar titles. Dont know why ppl make such a fuss about it. If the card makes sense, im ok with that.
Guess there isnt that many card games at the moment, so we are not used to this practice in this area of gaming industry. Dont get me wrong, im not saying i want every game to be a copy of the previous one and no new ideas given, but i wouldnt start a riot when i see an idea established in another game make its way to a different one ;-)
Plot Twist: not really lul ... but yeah, def an interesting card that will see play if for nothing else than to see how strong it can actually get. Possibility Seeker performed pretty well, but that was also due to the body.
Whenever a set of cards is removed from arena, Blizzard seems to make an arena reset, retiring all decks, and we get a free arena ticket for our unfinished runs. In the past this has been the case when the new HS year started or during some arena related events (dual class arena, arena exclusive cards).
With Year of the Dragon introducing rotating sets to arena drafting pool, i would argue that we might get a free arena ticket for an unfinished run more frequently now. Unless they come up with an excuse to not give it, which i dont think they will. So more goodies for us :)
Anyway, when Rise of Shadows launches, we should get a free arena ticket for unfinished run regardless of what will happen down the line.
So as always, play out your runs to as many wins as you can get before 2 losses and reap the rewards.

I edited your comment for you, you need to input direct link to the image. Interesting overview.
Definitely Valeera the Hollow. I was having blast playing control rogue past few months :)
New way to play ress priest, with Mindblast and Archmage lol.
Thread about this already up!

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
That doll would be cute if it wasnt so creepy lol.
Yup, already on to-do list.

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.
