    For this particular event, once you have crafted all four items, you should be done. You (eventually) get 100 Credits and the Pixel Ironheart Avatar as the reward for crafting everything.

    The yet to be unveiled zero mana 4/6 taunt has not shown up yet, bolstering my hopes that its possibly a typo.

    Crypt Keeper is in the reveal video, so alas it does exist and is not a typo.

    I'm gonna do the Linecracker combo, somehow accrue an infinite amount of expensive minions in hand, then spend all my Armor before the rope gets me lol :D

    While usually true, in this instance, C'Thun always splits before the Scythe tries to reap him.

    That is freakin' cool! My only complaint is that the deck-building thought-process seems a little obvious: you're gonna run Artificer Xy'mox, and you're gonna run Jace Darkweaver. That leaves just one minion as a flex.

    Deal with a Devil looked like hopeless garbage, even with the tease that no-minion support would be on its way. How could the DH ever function without any included minions, in this day and age? But that Scythe might really be all it takes, and I'm here for it!

    That being said, what're you gonna run? It specifies "different minions", so it sounds like they can't be two of the same; meaning, realistically, that they'll be Legendaries. So....Artificer Xy'mox, Jace Darkweaver, and maybe Felerin, the Forgotten? Kind of bummed that the first two are so obvious that they undermine the deck-building a little.

    It's...okay. Is "okay" enough of a payoff to warrant going Fire Warrior? No, of course not, which is why my hype for this teased archetype has fallen off a cliff now that it's a known entity. We needed something big and punchy, maybe even flashy, and this is not that.

    Could this be setup for later, a future where the archetype receives more support and becomes legitimate a la Freeze Shaman? Theoretically yes, I suppose, but is that realistically gonna happen? Because Hearthstone is a graveyard of one-off "archetypes" that were around for a week before disappearing to the abyss, and that could easily happen again here.

    Was hoping for something more when it came to the Legendary payoff for this new Fire Warrior archetype, but at least it's not trash.

    ...What a low bar for Warrior these days lol

    Isn't the Sister too slow? She is a 6-mana "do nothing" with an overhead for each Shadow spell generated that costs you 3 apiece. They're not even cast; you still need to pay for them too! That seems very expensive... you could waste a whole turn prepping for the next one and be dead by then.

    Future buff target, ho! There is no reason this needs to cost 4 in my opinion.

    Let's do the Time Warp againnnnnnn!

    I think it's time to take that card and officially shoot it dead. "Nerf" it to 4 so Grey Sage Parrot can't copy it, and strip off the Arcane school as well.

    She will copy whatever she can, starting with the cards on the left: it is not all or nothing. Are you accidentally playing her into a location that has a Cosmo? That would be my only guess.

    You could resurrect your Whelps from Scale of Onyxia, essentially gaining two more copies of that card...at least, until rotation. Crazy.

    A member of our Discord made a point I didn't even think of: Unending Swarm could resurrect your Whelps from Scale of Onyxia, essentially gaining two more copies of that card...at least, until rotation.

    Edit: Whelp, didn't notice you had the same thought in the card's discussion thread :P

    Sort of: going off previous events, you can make progress toward an event on PC, but you can't actually interact with that menu (you can't do anything News related on PC). You'd have to go to your phone so you can acquire/spend the Vibranium, but you could return to your PC afterward.

    Prescience is Shaman's first Shadow spell.

    Haunting Visions would like a word with you :P Also Deathweaver Aura was revealed first in this set.
