Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Community Q&A #24 - Revisiting Balance Next Week, Emote Wheel, Bring Back a Friend, Mass Nerf

My sense, based on dev comments from around the time of the first rewards track, is that it's decided from the outset how much gold in total would be given out on the rewards track. Thereafter, it's a question of …

DreamHack Beyond Begins, 3 Hearthstone Tournaments Plus Free Forged in the Barrens Packs Available

I tried about 2.5 hours ago and got this too. I don't know if they have yet to reset the giveaway for day 3 or if the day 3 packs are already depleted.

Blizzard Has Removed the United in Stormwind Final Live Stream From the Official Hearthstone Site

Your concern for a streamer is one thing but how is Blizzard, a large corporate entity, being punished by us? We made angry comments on social media? We decided not to pre-order their next expansion? That's not punishment. If we …

DreamHack Beyond Begins, 3 Hearthstone Tournaments Plus Free Forged in the Barrens Packs Available

Looks like they've made some changes: The player avatar no longer walks into the goblin when you click on him. I was able to speak to the goblin and get the code. It's currently day 2 of the giveaway.

DreamHack Beyond Begins, 3 Hearthstone Tournaments Plus Free Forged in the Barrens Packs Available

I found the goblin but he's unclickable under the mass of avatars around him.

This is stupid (or I'm stupid), why didn't they place him behind the bar with Bob?

Leaked Blizzard Emails From President J. Allen Brack and Executive Fran Townsend

Is it obvious though? When the choices are: fire this highly-productive serial-harasser and lose his ability to make millions for our company, or just let him have his way with a few women (whom we don't value as much) and …

Leaked Blizzard Emails From President J. Allen Brack and Executive Fran Townsend

Brack's e-mail, while less offensive, is also full of empty fluff. What I would have liked to hear from both is stronger language for employees: do this kind of shit and there will be consequences. Concrete stuff not just nebulous …

Leaked Blizzard Emails From President J. Allen Brack and Executive Fran Townsend

What I'm reading from Blizzard's initial response to the lawsuit and Townsend's e-mail: transgressions did occur, but they were in the past and steps were taken to address them. Eventually. I don't know if that absolves them of all legal …

Paul "Zalae" Nemeth Suspended From All Hearthstone Esports Events Following Relationship Abuse Allegations

It's not like I expected him to be an abuser, but I wouldn't be altogether surprised if these allegations are true. I was turned off from watching his streams after he went off on someone who asked a pretty innocuous …

Meet Hearthstone's Mercenaries! Blizzard Releases Backstories on the 10 New Characters

'They' has long been used to refer to a person of unknown gender. Applying it to non-binary people is just an extension of its usage.

Dean Ayala's Community Q&A #12 - Barrens Balance Meeting on Monday, AI Ladder, Core Set, Heroic Battlegrounds, and More

[quote]@Kat__HS I also think we fall into the trap of making too many statlines that are Attack/Attack+2/3. Usually that is what 'makes sense' but we should be trying to do weirder statlines and compensate power in cost/design. I want to …

Two New Classic Bundles Arrived in the Hearthstone Shop - Get Golden Classic Packs, Available Through April 5

Given that the classic format is now live, I would assume that the classic packs now give cards that are playable in that format. But just in case some unintended feature slipped in, I would play it safe and wait …

Forged in the Barrens Brings Us Two New Cosmetic "The Coin" Cards

Looking at the requirement for the Scholomance coin, does anyone get the sense that Blizzard had originally intended the second coin to be a reward for collecting all the cards in an expansion, but forgot to count the cards in …

Hearthstone Reveals Details on Forged in the Barrens Rewards Track

For those who are wondering about the value of the Tavern Pass' XP boost:

If you've managed to reach level 110 without the pass or level 140 with the pass on the current rewards track, you would have gained …

Flurry Reveals a New Forged in the Barrens Mage Card - Flurry (Rank 1)

I rather suspect the HS team decided early on against multiple targets based on their newbie-friendly design philosophy. This philosophy would need to change before we get to talking about code.
