Twitch Drops Return Later Today for Hearthstone and Contain 2 Mercenary Packs - Lasts All Weekend

If I recall correctly, clicking the "drops enabled" link takes you to a page that shows progress. There is such a page in any case.

The drops haven't started yet though.

Mercenaries 21.4 Patch Known Issues Hotfixes Have Arrived - Battlegrounds Ratings, Bounty Fixes, and More

I got two packs earlier today. I watched GM last weekend and the packs for that were slower than usual, but I did get them eventually on Sunday.

I guess Blizzard wasn't able to pinpoint exactly who missed out …

So what does everyone think?

So far I like it better than I thought I would, but I had pretty low expectations. I'm not sure that it will have lasting appeal though.

I didn't pre-order. I did buy the 5 euros bundle, but I …

Hearthstone Grandmasters 2021 Season 2 - Week 7 Results, Relegations, and More! (Spoiler Free)

I'm not sure "loss of passion" is fixable though. The problem is that getting lots of practice is essential to playing Hearthstone well: even the best players perform worse when they don't play enough games. Few people are going to …

Hearthstone Grandmasters 2021 Season 2 - Week 7 Results, Relegations, and More! (Spoiler Free)

Why should the esports be teams when ladder is single player only?

Half and Half

Maybe that Warlock was just very eager to activate Jan'alai and Mordresh.

Trump's f2p early access shreds haters' concerns

That the early game is generous doesn't really say much: even the most manipulative pay-to-win games start generous and only require more and more payments to keep up with other players in the end game, when players have already invested …

Hearthstone Patch 21.3.0 is Now Live! Card Buffs & Nerfs, Shadowlands Hero Skin Bundle, New Standard & Wild Bundles Coming

Are you sure about Golden Wild packs? I only see Standard and Classic. I played a lot more Wild than Standard last month and no Classic yet at all, so I'd be surprised if I wasn't offered one if it …

Hearthstone Patch 21.3.0 is Now Live! Card Buffs & Nerfs, Shadowlands Hero Skin Bundle, New Standard & Wild Bundles Coming

I used the same dust approach, but it turned out I had a golden Brute in my collection, so I got a bit more dust out of it.

Standard and Wild Balance Updates Arrive on Tuesday - Mindrender Illucia No Longer Swaps Decks or Cards, The Demon Seed Banned in Wild

I'm not sure where I stand on hand disruption: it feels terrible when it's done to you, but at the same time it also feels terrible when you figured out your opponent's game plan and you're unable to do anything …

Standard and Wild Balance Updates Arrive on Tuesday - Mindrender Illucia No Longer Swaps Decks or Cards, The Demon Seed Banned in Wild

It was indeed a card that can lose you the match when played at the wrong time: I remember watching a tournament where a player forgot about the automatically generated [card]Deathwing[/card] in their hand that they swapped over to their …

Standard and Wild Balance Updates Arrive on Tuesday - Mindrender Illucia No Longer Swaps Decks or Cards, The Demon Seed Banned in Wild

I know people like to shout power creep, but one mana for a 2/2 with the pirate tag and a useful discount on a future play is definitely a valid case.

Standard and Wild Balance Updates Arrive on Tuesday - Mindrender Illucia No Longer Swaps Decks or Cards, The Demon Seed Banned in Wild

I liked Regis Killbin's idea for Illucia better: swap until the end of your turn, so if you play Illucia early in the turn you can disrupt your opponent's hand with your remaining mana, but you can't make them skip …

Can We Build a Demon Hunter Questline Deck Without Going Broke? - Budget or Fudge It

I put a [card]Metamorfin[/card] as the 30th card in a slightly different Brute DH deck and it's actually working out quite well so far. It's not even half a Brute in stats, but it is easier to play for free, …

Maxima C'thun Bug!

This is actually being played on ladder with lethal as soon as turn 6. I hope it gets fixed soon. Yes, I'm salty, not towards Mark (I love your videos) but towards the lack of QA at Blizzard.

Hearthstone's Stormwind Questline Cards Were a Mistake - Here's How We Can Fix Them

Crystallizer could convert 5 health to armor instead of dealing damage. That means it wouldn't help questline progression, but it would make the card more useful in other decks, for example when combined with Thekal.

Actually, you suggested exactly …

Solving the "???" Gift of Elune Card Back Achievement in Hearthstone - Solve the Stormwind Mysteries

These puzzles were designed at a difficulty level where it would take the entire Hearthstone community a while to figure out, instead of a single person. If that's not something you enjoy, just play the modes you do enjoy instead. …

Hearthstone is Looking at Possible Nerfs and Buffs in the September Balance Patch, Wild Balance May be Coming

Most questline Priest decks run very few spells, to tutor the completion reward. That makes it far from certain that Mutanus will pull a key minion, so it may not be enough of a disruption.

The traditional win condition …

A New Hearthstone Puzzle Card Back "Gift of Elune" Has Been Added - Solve the Mysteries of Stormwind

One thing I noticed is that while the flanking minions on the bottom row (your side of the board) are random copies of minions on the top row (opponent's side of the board), two things are always true:

Rant: Why Devs Making New Content Aren't Ruining the Game, Players Are

Over the years, the two opinions I've heard most often about Wild are:

  • Wild should be a place where you can play your old favorite decks
  • Wild should be a balanced meta

The first opinion …
