I wouldnt call it cheating, since the bad coding allows it, but i would soon look for if it hurts their viewership, i would not watch a streamer who constantly skips the combat, the tavern turn is not that exciting.
With that said, it, and the achievements, kinda showed the "flaw" in the system, or rather the way it works: when the combat starts, before you can even see the board, the game already decided on all the moves and who wins or loses that fight. You can only watch the motions. It can still give you that rush of pulling off a lucky victory, but if you know everything has been already predetermined, that feeling gets quite sour.
Im not a developer, so cant speak for if and how it could be changed, but having the combat phase be literally irrelevant, that does not bring me much enjoyment from player perspective. With that said, i still like to play BG, but i would enjoy it more, if the combat phase mattered at all. I still get angry/happy about the result, so i guess the brain can be fooled even if you know what is going on, oh well.
The combo is pretty strong and super easy to achieve, but the BS Mill Decks keep it in check pretty easily. Which, is not a good thing at all, since Mill Decks can bite it in a first place. That being said, i did play Tiller Combo yesterday and it was fun while it lasted, but i wouldnt want it to be evergreen thing in Wild. Cant imagine it will stay like that for too long.
Btw, it would seem that Heroic Duels did not get a reset, kinda surprised to be honest, but oh well. It was the first instance so it was a gamble, you can still play out your run to use up the entry. And if you dont like the game mode, you can keep it as an investment and see if we get "lucky" next time with a proper expansion launch.
Man i had a really awesome priest draft, like exceptional, and i still didnt find myself playing it in two months, pretty sad that arena leaves me with such a bad feeling lately that i dont even want to play the good decks.
Quick question: if I own some Darkmoon Races cards by opening packs and I buy the miniset, will still two cards of each Common/Rare etc. be added to my collection? I'm asking this because I want to max out duplicates for potential nerfs.
Yes, you should get full mini-set even if you already have some of those cards, but in any case, if you are going to buy the bundle, DO NOT open DMF packs prior to it (afer mini-set launches, ofc)! Wanting to double down on potential nerfs is kinda silly, just buy the cards, and then open DMF packs to actually get cards you are missing, you can still get duplicates by doing just that as a byproduct. Dont waste your resources.
I have 26 unopened expansion packs. More than enough to get all the common / rare. There is just one epic, so I should get it as well and hopefully one Legendary. I have dust to craft the others if there are meta- suitable decks. So I will defintely not buy the expansion.
Assuming you already have full (common, rare, epic) DMF set, those cards are still going to be there, dont forget.
When are the Darkmoon Prizes going away? Next expansion? So will Tickatus have double the Prizes for the duration? That would actually be pretty strong.
Greybough tho, I don't see a direction you want to take with him. He will carry you through early with ease, but then? I guess if you get a head-start, you can go into any composition.
I wonder if minion targeted by Hysteria can actually survive, or is hard-coded to die anyway? I mean with Mass Hysteria or Deathwing, Mad Aspect, there is a bit different phrasing, so with Blizzard spaghetti code, it might go either way.
We're sorry to hear that. We were trying something new, since our team has grown, so we can push out our initial thoughts more promptly, tho cards came first, so that's why there were placeholders for the reviews at first, of course. Your feedback is noted.
/edit: well, it seems that Flux basically echoed my sentiment, or I his :)
That wont change anything. You dont need him to have 0-Attack to pull off the combo.
Try switching to other region, log in, log out, then switch back to original. Or log in from a different device.

Yeah. But i wonder why it shows "+ scroll XP" and not "+XP scroll". Looks super weird to me honestly.

Damn, Ben looks like 10 years younger :)

It would still work, if it was Tier 4 probably.
Or you get 15 gold and can uninstall the game, eh? 😂
Yeah, i didnt read it carefully, i thought you had to target a friendly minion.
Pezman seems to be the ultimate Snowman.
Speaking of, I also didnt notice you can target enemy minion :D That makes it a LOT better, and the dying part could be preferable, yes.

How is Backfire a card is beyond me, honestly. Divine Favor BS level for aggro decks, while still insanely amazing for literally any other WL deck.
Thats what i said! (well, review not there yet :d) But yes, this card will be scary, if shaman has pretty much anything on the board.
