@Flux: would you be made of solid awesome and give us an avatar picture based on the new artwork of Valeera?
Shut up and take my money!!
Wait.
(many thanks, Xdega ;))
Good to see Xdega has you covered. I'll be updating the Avatar / Facebook / Twitter Cover hero image thread whenever I can get a higher resolution version of her art. Real shame that it wasn't included with the client.
You're welcome. Made myself a fresh new avatar also ;)
So do you think this was the development build Ben was playing in the last stream and now released to the rest of the Alpha crew?
How many weeks ago was the stream?
17 days ago we had the Arena stream, and yes it most likely was a build very similar to this one. All the changes they showed us in their version (Rogue portrait, Fireball cost, Pyroblast damage etc. etc.) are in this one too.
I wonder if there could be a similar time line between Alpha and 1st round of Closed Beta release as then and now.
"JARAXXUS IS... sorry."
Hands down, funniest thing heard all year! XD
Like the new Valeera artwork, she seems to have the most vibrant portrait of all the heroes. Its nice to see the client strings for beta resources, looks like an August release might not be out of the question.
edit: In fact, you know what, my money says before Gamescom. I'm a gambling man. Bring it on >:O
I like gamblers ;)
Cult Master is 2 health now, it was 3 health before. That will be really tough to take advantage for the effect. That is one common aoe or a free backstab.
dat Valeera Sanguinar art *drool*
[6:50 EST] Update: Cards in the client are now localized in the 13 language Hearthstone will ship in.
you guys plan to release these other language cards?
Not at this time.
u broke my heart =( , i want braziliam portugues
Sorry =(
A lot less changes than i expected.
Looks like Rogue stealth got some nerf and I really hope the change to Lightspawn means it can't be silenced. 3 Cost for inner fire seemed wierd considering Crazed Alchemist avability to provide the single needed burst for cheaper, and he's a neutral.
