Mind Blast Apology (Hearthpwn Forum)

Back when Hearthpwn was the main hs site, forums discussing the movement of mind blast were not uncommon. I was against that idea, and I didn’t articulate my feelings in the most polite way. To anyone who may remember all of that stuff: You’re right and I’m sorry.

  • It never hurts to apologise but I don't think you're wrong to disagree with rotating out mind blast just because the devs decided to do it. As far as I'm concerned the hall of fame system is a stopgap measure that doesn't address the problems inherent in evergreen cards in a satisfying way.

     

    Sure we can keep HoF-ing basic and classic till there's nothing but useless trash left in those sets but I'd rather see a proper rotation system implemented.

  • I'm still a little sad they removed Mind Blast, to be honest. I fully agree with the class flavour reasons, but the balance seemed on point to me. Basic and Classic cards in my eyes should be cards that aren't mainstays but can become key pieces of decks with the right synergy. Mind Blast was considered a joke card for years, and it wasn't until Shadow Visions and a bursty Priest archetype came out that it actually was played.

    I also wish Radiance was just a reprint of Flash Heal. Would anyone really care if they reprinted some junker cards like that? I'd love a new Darkbomb with different flavour, for example.
