The flavor of this card and its effect! It's subtle but very nice! It's like a bartender in an old Western film who might pour (or draw) a beer and then slide the glass across the bar to who ordered it. Robo Bob is doing that, but sliding the Outcast card he draws you to the left side. I hope there is some kind of fun animation to match this bit of flavor too!
I guess the idea here is that Fye is the leader of the Faerie dragons. So while there are no Aspects that are Faerie dragons, Fye is like "the aspect" of that flight.
I don’t know the last time I saw a Mine Rogue. I might have faced one last week, but he was dead before he could combo me, so I never saw a Mine hit the board. I have seen an increase in Waygate Mages though. I was super annoyed by Vexallis and the never ending Conjure Biscuits this one guy had. At that point just go play solitaire!
It might be a little hard for them to go too crazy right now since they already have Anomalies live in all formats. But they could always exclude Twist from stuff like that to implement some wacky rules to the format. Perhaps future Twist iterations will do just that.
Played a lot of Twist in the first Wonders season, but not as much this season. To be fair though, I haven’t played a ton of Hearthstone in general this month.
But I think it’s a great mode for Wild players who want to try and play older decks that might not be viable for the power level of Wild, as well as nostalgic older Standard players who haven’t dusted their collections. I couldn’t see Twist being very fun for brand new players or players that dust their Wild cards. Sure you can buy the busted premade deck if there us one. But if a premade deck is truly busted, it’ll probably get nerfed.
In the long term, even if the big changes only happen every 3 months with small changes in between, the format should have longer staying power than it’s predecessor of Classic. My biggest issue with the precedent they set with Caverns of Time is the straight to Wild sets. I don’t have a problem with the idea of adding support for old archetypes, but rather I have a problem with the potential frequency of these added Wild cards which are essentially mini sets packaged with reprints!
If this is going to become a constant, at least give those of us with fairly complete Wild collections the option to buy only the brand new cards as a mini set package for the same $ or gold as a regular standard mini set.
I never said anything about a conspiracy. I simply stated fact that they accidentally pushed out packs that were intended to go out during BlizzCon, and then theorized that perhaps the hot fix they pushed to maintain the BlizzCon "surprise" was inadvertently messing with the appearance of the packs from the drops.
Same here. With the patch that added Showdown pre-orders they accidentally pushed through 3 golden Showdown packs that some people (me) saw pop up. They took them back in the next hot fix, and there was a note about a "BlizzCon surprise" being given out early.
I'm wondering if their quick fix to hide those packs to try and maintain the surprise for some people is now causing the Badlands packs from drops to not show up.
This list, still good! In fact, since the last time this brawl came up, Soul of the Forest was buffed from 4 mana to 3. But you just want to create treants or have a big board you can silence with Wailing Soul, then buff and go face!
I think it's more like Microsoft wanted to enforce some restructuring so that the eventual restructure they wanted didn't fall back as Microsoft layoffs. So if that's the case, this is a good sign that Microsoft wants to ensure the team is successful and profitable, and they only saw fit to eliminate 10 positions to put it in a spot where it can meet their expectations.
I'm personally done spending any money in this game. The game is made less and less affordable with each change to the game's economy, and then changes to cards you spent 6k tokens on yield no compensation. This greedy cash grab of a gotch ya game won't get my financial support any longer.
I was in a small stream of my friend’s, someone came in all “I guess it’s time to quit HS” like the whole team got laid off or something. I thought that sounded crazy given they just made a new mode, maybe brought back some older players, etc. However, I couldn’t find anything at first. But a restructure before the completed buyout sounded more reasonable. Might have even gotten Microsoft feedback on cuts to make the transition easier. Cut them now instead of later when it’ll look like MS layoffs.
Sanitize is like Reckless Flurry on steroids. For 1 extra mana get the same effect but keep your armor! Forge it first to also get more armor.
Even Warrior in Wild is going to love having this little board clear. Odyn lists in Standard probably will too since the Forged copy can at least guarantee clearing small taunts prior to using the attack from the armor gain.
As a Wild player, kind of wondering if this new Sigil would be too slow or not for an Odd DH deck. Might find a home in my Il’gynoth QL DH. Might depend on if they nerf Disco Lock or not.
The other cards for DH, Shambler and Mindbender, good Even DH cards!
No, seriously… I think both can find a home somewhere. Mindbender could even work in the previously mentioned Il’gynoth deck. Especially after the Sigil goes off, draw a few more cards, maybe it gets a tick of cost reduction too! Help control the board before the combo turn.
But again, the IG deck overall is too slow against Disco Lock so I wait to see what changes get made there before I get to excited about new additions to that deck.
I would also like to see a little more of a Twist focused section. Or at minimum some working and updated Twist features for the deck builder and deck database. But I know that probably takes time and resources away from other needs.

I doubt Brightwing will care since all they want is to be friends with everyone.

It's just a bug that they intend to fix. But yeah, I took advantage of it and finished it all in the first day too.
Feel like that should have happened a while ago, but at least it's FINALLY going to happen.

Pretty sure people have been crying out about the game dying since Naxx came out and they didn't like Undertaker Hunter.

Rumors swirling of big layoffs coming, potentially hitting HS team hardest. Any concrete evidemce of this?

Mysterious Challenger down to 5 mana... Odd Secret Paladin time?!
