Release Data Change in Article Comparison
We recently reported on the release date through a leak on the Battle.net Shop. That too has since been removed, with no word from Blizzard disproving it.
Card Clarifications
Quote from @PlayHearthstoneCan The Ancient One be summoned via random effects such as Effigy or Master of Evolution?
No, it can only be created by two Blood of The Ancient Ones merging. (Source)What happens when there are 3 Bloods of the Ancient One on the board? How many merge, or do they even merge at all?
Two of the Blood of the Ancient Ones would merge into The Ancient One. (Source)How does Silence affect Blood of The Ancient One?
Both Blood of The Ancient Ones would have to be silenced for the effect not to trigger. (Source)Will n'zoth bring back 1/1 copies from the herald or will they revive as their fully statted brethren?
If Herald Volajz copies Deathrattle minions and N'Zoth brings them back, they will have their full stats. (Source)

Posted Apr 6, 2016 (Explorers)If Yogg-saron technically created the Dwarves by giving them flesh instead of stone shouldn't they be thanking him instead of wanting to kill him?
Confused me a bit that section, people tend to worship that which gives them life.

Posted Apr 6, 2016 (Explorers)Yeah, they are really good (imo) and the flavour behind them is just awesome. WoG is already proving to be such a good expansion, my guess is that it will be the best one HS has ever seen.

Posted Apr 6, 2016 (Explorers)I guess it's more for Wild, with Thaurissian or something.
Otherwise only Aviana would make this playable, but if they are both dead then what? You need to get lucky with Y'Shaarj?
Yes, people will be able to pull it off, but very sporadically and too gimicky...

Posted Apr 5, 2016 (Explorers)Has anyone changed their system clock past April 26th to see if the lock on their 50 pack pre-order goes away?

Posted Apr 7, 2016 (Explorers)Actually, past release dates have been discovered by changing the system clock:
http://hearthstone.metabomb.net/news/hearthstone-the-grand-tournament-release-date-discovered
It didn't actually allow anyone to open packs early because the server knew it wasn't past the release date, but it did make the packs APPEAR as if they could be opened.

Posted Apr 5, 2016 (Explorers)Blood of The Ancient One seems a bit too slow though. IF the meta slows down then it seems like a fun card to play.

Posted Apr 5, 2016 (Explorers)Very easily countered by removal, however, that might allow you to hit face with one of these and with the evident switch in the meta and a nerf to BGH this might actually see play.

Posted Apr 6, 2016 (Explorers)The pattern seems to be that the card is revealed 48 hours after the 'Lore of the cards' video. So a safe estimate is in 36hrs.
