The Pepper Thread - Share Some Good Vibes!

I'm mostly F2P (I get the battle pass to make XP farming easier) so only had 9 Lich King packs to open at my private fireside gathering. Beat my past luck and got 2 legendaries ([card]Vexallus[/card] and [card]Bonelord Frostwhisper[/card]), and …

Frostmourne is a New Legendary Death Knight Weapon for Path of Arthas Revealed by IGN + Anti-Magic Shell

Man, I'd be annoyed if I cracked [card]Frostmourne[/card] in a card pack. Super late game (unless DK has some strong weapons cheating that we haven't seen) - you're likely to only get the full value (3 cards with middling attack …

March of the Lich King Heralds Hearthstone's Next Expansion - Death Knight Class, Minion Types, New Cards, and Mechanics Overview

Generally I'm pretty hyped about this: big shake up seems fun. New mechanics. Interesting deckbuilding constraint (and opportunity)

Two things don't work for me though:

1: I don't like the look of the signature legendaries. Losing the card's …

Early Winners and Losers From the Maw and Disorder Mini-Set
Quote From DragonDraena

How about: 

Her early career was shadowed by a theft accusation that, while never substantiated, eroded the public's trust. 

 

My God. You've done it!

Early Winners and Losers From the Maw and Disorder Mini-Set

The accusation cards also kind of "sound" wrong to me. I've been trying to come up with a sentence structure where "[card]Theft Accusation[/card]" sounds like the right words to say, but it always seems clunky.

Hearthstone's Latest Balance Patch Goes Live Today, 3 Nerfs and a Whopping 17 Buffs for Standard Mode

The Colossal buffs look nice, though I'm really sad that the Hunter Quest didn't get a nerf to the quest itself.

Group Therapy! Need to blow off some steam? Mega salty? Here's the place!

Okay, so, I know that it's not a top tier deck or anything, but I'm seriously pissed off that [card]Defend the Dwarven District[/card] has avoided the nerfs that have hit the other popular questlines.

Unlike the others, this gives …

Blizzard Hears Community Feedback on the Need for Wild Hearthstone Balance Changes in Year of the Hydra

Given how often this comes up, I think the only reasonable balance change to wild is to switch it to a format that gets to a random assortment of expansions which switch every month. Keep whatever the current core set …

Missing Cards? Free Arcane Dust? Blizzard Issues a Statement on Recent Hearthstone Issues

Ah damn. I got 16k by mistake and only crafted 2 epics. Now I'm at 0 dust.

Let it be a lesson, next time there's free dust: spend it quick.

Microsoft to Acquire Activision Blizzard in a $69 Billion All-Cash Deal

Honestly, it's probably fine. Microsoft doesn't make particularly worse/better content than ActiBlizz, other than remaking the same Halo game for 20 years. Bringing things like Warcraft and other Blizzard IP into the Games pass means I might actually play them.

Hearthstone's Battle for Alterac Valley Event Has Entered Its Final Honor Phase - Will the Alliance Hold Steady, or Can the Horde Still Prevail?

I'm glad that they're letting folks complete the chain after the 11th... I've got 1400 to go... FOR THE ALLIANCE!

Skin overload?
Quote From aposteljoe
Maybe I shouldn't tell you about the number of card backs...

Wait... There's more than just Mark of Hakkar?

Skin overload?

I'm probably the only person who feels this way because I'm a bit of a curmudgeon, but is anyone else finding the proliferation of skins a bit... much?

I started playing (mostly F2P, but I did get the two …

Celestalon Shares the Hearthstone Team's Thoughts on Drek'Thar and Vanndar Stormpike as Free Golden Card Rewards

It seems to me that the easy solve would be removing them from packs altogether. You could craft them if you wanted (though maybe not the golden version, idk) or obtain them via the quest, but that's it.

Information Opacity

So, I've played a little of Mercs, and don't have particularly strong feelings on it, but there is one element that really bothers me: information opacity.

What do I mean by this? An example: as a reward after a …

Completing Hearthstone's Books of Heroes Will Reward a Golden Standard Pack Starting This Week - Reward is Retroactive

mostly covering too much ground and on a foundation of things that took place well after the Warcraft stories that I'm familiar with. 

The smaller scale stories definitely worked better than the bigger ones. Because the big ones had …
