This isnt an easy solve. The news article will get spamed away from the front page with new ones coming in. We want to encourage ppl to continue discussing the cards, for which forums is better suited. But disallowing any discussion in the news article doesnt make any sense.
I dont think its that big of a deal imho. Yes, initially the discussion can be split, but you can say the same about discussing it on Discord. We just provide multiple options and you can choose whatever suits you best.
I like your idea about "Discuss this card" directing you to card's page in theory, not sure if it would be a good idea long term, but that is something we could consider for next reveal season. We shall see what opinion other Staff members have on this.
About the voting, we made it easier for you to vote on a card. It is enough to vote in one place, thats it. The fact you see the ratings in more places doesnt mean you have to vote several times, you vote once and your vote shows in all the other places as well ;-)
There is all sorts of "hidden" stuff we implemented along the way to make our life easier, we might as well share it with you to help you format your content better :) (i'll write what i remember, there might still be more)
Note: You can combine multiple parameters in one bbcode.
two: This is more useful for articles than forums, but you can use it for quick widget formatting (see the difference): [hsdeckcollection two]8764,8765,8766,8767[/hsdeckcollection] =
This isnt bbcode, but we have one thing implemented, that Custom Card Creators might want to make use of, so here it goes.
hsclass-header
We have a special headings with graphics for each class. But to make it work, you have to edit your post in Source Code via the "<>" button in the Text Editor:
Create your post and a header for the class;
for example, format your "Druid" header with Heading 3, which will then in source code look like <h3>Druid</h3>.
Click on the "<>" icon (source code) in the Text Editor.
Search for (ctrl+f) "h3" and find the heading you're looking for.
Replace line <h3>Druid</h3> with <h3 class="hsclass-header hsclass-druid">Druid</h3>;
for hunter it would be <h3 class="hsclass-header hsclass-hunter">Hunter</h3> and so on.
Confirm with "OK".
Save your post.
Done.
Now you get the pretty headings with graphics instead of regular ones :)
If you dont want to do it manually, or cant figure it out, feel free to copy them from this list (you can just copy the yellow class name, it will transfer the code with it):
I still have this happening. One of the reasons why I kinda stopped posting more, even though I am not a huge poster.
Is it deleting more than the last character? I only ever experienced it to cut off the last character, especially if i end up with a smiley face, but thats about it. If more text gets cut off, we need to do a deeper analysis.
Can you describe your situation?
What exactly happens?
What device are you using?
What browser are you using?
Do you have any add-ons installed (and active)?
Did you try it without add-ons? Did you try it in different browser?
Can you provide a link to a post that has been cut-off?
Shu'ma will probably be one of those minions that gonna screw you so hard in the most ridiculous situation possible when it drops from a random effect (for you or your opponent) :D
Absolutely love it; going straight into my Dragon Paladin deck. The flavor of it - Talritha jumping onto a new Dragon - is perfect. This will definitely see play if Dragon Paladin can get off the ground once more.
Yes and no. Ppl always look primarly on the card gain, but you also get an information with this. Glimmerroot tells you something about your opponent's deck while Envoy tells you something about your opponents hand. So there is a difference
We also updated the voting system to make it easier for you guys :) Now you dont have to go to the card's page specifically to vote (but you can), you can vote from the news pages, threads, xpac guide, basically whenever you see the ranking and it is all tied together, so you dont have to worry where you vote:)
I only now got to this, the class looks pretty good and the flavor is high!
One thing im not sure even Shatterstar realized, at least he didnt mention it is, with Astral Intellect and Mark of Gemini, this class has some serious potential for a Mill deck :o
Oh, and before i forget ... BEGONE SECRET LOVERS! :D
MMR stands for Match-making Rating (or Ratio) and is an abbreviation used in many games that have "ladder" system. Sometimes its hidden (like for Casual matchmaking), sometimes its not.
Exactly what Shadows said, you compare two situations, that are diametrically different. Curator has an extra 1/1 from the start of the game and it helps him not to lose health in first few rounds just by "existing" basically. But "wasting" a turn by buying a weak-stated minion in the early to mid game where all you can afford is one minion a turn is a very different scenario. There, it very well can cost you some health in the process.
You could compare it to buying a Wrath Weaver on T1 instead of literally any other minion. You are 100% guaranteed to lose some health from this action, because you will gonna lose your next match or two at least. You can eventually turn it around and the investment can lead to your victory, but depending on the situation, you just might be too slow. Same thing could potentially happen with buying a 2/2 amalgam.
I know this is a kinda silly example and that amalgam could be a 1/1 and ppl would still buy it because it would be worth it overall, but the nerf is going to do something. Will it be enough? Probably not, but you will notice it happened.

Hi, Flux addressed the issue here: https://outof.cards/forums/out-of-cards/site-feedback-ideas/2038-advertisements?page=1#comment-41665
Please continue any discussion you wish to have on the topic there, thanks.
I nominate Tentacle for the cutest "card" of the set!
Did you mean that in a good or bad way? 😁
Shu'ma will probably be one of those minions that gonna screw you so hard in the most ridiculous situation possible when it drops from a random effect (for you or your opponent) :D
I can understand that and it is your choice, how you evaluate the cards. We appretiate any feedback ;-)
I knew you would like it :D
Looks like a pretty powerful tool. You get some information about what is your opponent (not) hodling and you can potentially get a card.
Yes and no. Ppl always look primarly on the card gain, but you also get an information with this. Glimmerroot tells you something about your opponent's deck while Envoy tells you something about your opponents hand. So there is a difference
Sorta Val'anyr like. But yeah, cool design.

It would not be possible to count it manually lol.
You vote on cards on the site and you participate in a meaningful discussion in the card thread's basically ;-)
