Firebat, Hearthstone's First World Champion, Quits Competitive Hearthstone

I had not been following the recent Grandmasters so am sad/surprised to hear of his relegation. He'll always be the first of firsts in Hearthstone - nothing can take that away from him.

Tortollan Pilgrim & Guardian Animals Being Nerfed in Patch 18.4 This Week

Speaking from a purely wild perspective, I didn't think turtle mage was a problem, at least no stronger than other infinite value decks eg DMH warrior, Shudderwock shaman, Shadowcaster rogue - they are slow and they can be thwarted. It's …

Hearthstone's Battle Pass Should be More Rewarding Than Progression Today

I would like to see the current 3-wins-10-gold system replaced with something that encourages varied play styles and not the most efficient win rate over time. Maybe a formula based on time, rounds or cards played. For now, I feel …

Nightfall is a New Keyword Coming in Call of the Mountain - 5 New Shadow Isles Cards Revealed

I'm not sure how the game mechanic relates to the meaning of the word nightfall. You play one card and suddenly it's nighttime?

Older Hearthstone Heroes Are Returning to the Shop, Much Like Old Card Backs

I had thought about purchasing Sylvanas, but the real money cost is not justifiable to me. I would happily plonk down 2000 gold or even dust for her though.

Blizzard Adding a Battle Pass to Hearthstone? Survey Highlights Alternate Art for The Coin, New Hero Skins, Paid Leveling Rewards

As a casual F2P, I do hope Blizzard rethinks this. Giving rewards in the form of packs is a terrible idea, even if they were comparable in value to the gold we get now. I save my gold for the …

Carrion Studies

This card could have been a Hunter-Rogue dual class, if such a pairing existed.

Pen Flinger is a New Card Revealed for Hearthstone's Scholomance Academy Expansion

[card]Hagatha the Witch[/card] would synergise nicely with this in wild.

Glide is a New Demon Hunter Card Revealed for Hearthstone's Scholomance Academy Expansion

I find the wording leaves some room for ambiguity until we see the card in action or hear from Blizzard: "Your opponent does the same" could mean that it is your opponent who does the shuffling, not you. Why not …

Glide is a New Demon Hunter Card Revealed for Hearthstone's Scholomance Academy Expansion

About [card] Augmented Elekk[/card]: which side of the board does it have to be to trigger for your opponent?

Hearthstone Grandmasters 2020 Season 1 Concludes With Relegations and Playoffs

I find it strange that the top 4 of the division B round-robin are automatically safe from relegation, whereas the 7th and 8th of division A (who scored higher than every person in division B during the first 3 weeks) …

We're Playing Highlander Wild Decks This Weekend (+ Giveaway)

When I'm exhausted from a string of losses on the ladder, I turn to this 'no-brainer'. Win or lose, I know I'll have fun with the resurrection shenanigans. I don't like polluting my resurrection pool so no [card]Barnes[/card] for me.

BlizzCon 2020 Has Been Cancelled

Death rates don't reflect the full extent of the problem. For every person that dies from the disease, there are x more who don't but for medical intervention. Medical intervention which costs money AND uses up limited medical resources and …

Is Nexus Damage Too High? Are You Sick of Card Stealing? Riot's Updated Watch List for Rising Tides

I don't have an opinion on [card]Pilfered Goods[/card] per se, but I am surprised that a card-stealing mechanic might be considered OP. Its analogue in Hearthstone has been so lackluster that I simply assumed that the mechanic is inherently sub-optimal. …

The Runespear

This is quite possibly the worst legendary I've had the misfortune of opening. I couldn't begin to fathom what Team 5 was thinking when they made this card - an 8-mana 3/3 weapon that, if you were very lucky, offer …

Quest Mage and Darkest Hour Warlock Changes Coming! Expect Changes to Open the Waygate and Bloodbloom

I hope they just raise the number of spells needed to complete [card]Open the Waygate[/card], and not nerf the reward. Back when it was first introduced, completing the quest required some build-around with sub-optimal cards; it was a suitably challenging …

Highlander Mill Mage (Saviors of Uldum edition)

The new legendary spell [card]Evocation[/card] seems like a good fit for this deck - one could do with 1-2 less random spell generators, and/or be less reliant on the elemental synergies with [card]Lesser Ruby Spellstone[/card].

Ashes of Outland

[quote from="Author"]Cairne Bloodhoof is beaten by Cursed Vagrant. it has more value than the mana cost.[/quote]

A little like the time [card]Terrorscale Stalker[/card] supplanted [card]Princess Huhuran[/card] but sadder. Apart from the lore behind Cairne, there's hardly anything "legendary" about …
