I feel disappointed with no new mechanics (twinspell and scheme is not a mechanic, its a value gimmick). On the other hand is see potential for new decks such as midrange warr, minimage or bigmage, secret paladin will evolve. Some class legendaries have crazy value/tempo effects (mage, lock, rogue).
Hopefuly they greatly expand dungeon runs and restack the arena :)
half of the meta archetypedecks won't work from 2 weeks to go simply because of rotation but okay....
Prety much hit the nail on the head for standard. Goodby deathrattle hunter as the egg rotates as does Katrina and the cube. Goodby odd/even decks. Goodby DK's and spellstones, etc, etc, etc. The rotation will shake the meta to death.
I'm already happy about this expansion. All the old stuff that I liked is coming back after they learned how to balance it well. There's a Dirty-Rat-Mech which pleases me to no end and there's more Dr.Boom support. Very nice.

how exactly is twinspell, scheme, and lackeys not a new mechanic?

Rejoice, for even in death, you have become children of Thanos.
How many times will the same thread be made?Quote from Ikedinha>>
Is it just me or the new expansion is just making cards to redress, keep the current decks/meta alive and not really great possibilities of a new meta, deck creation and creativity?
I can't even with this thread. Either people don't read, or don't search the forums. There are threads ad nauseum on this sentiment that are already started and in full swing. It's to the point now where it feels like a "look at me/please talk to me" thing when another one pops up.
My dude. Find one of the existing malcontent threads. Post in it. Revel in your fellow naysayers opinions about the game. Opine about the old days. Talk about how Ben leaving was HS's downfall. Do whatever. Just... for the love of Yogg... please stop with this cluttered up bullshit slew of posts that all say the same thing/express the same sentiment.
It was just a simple question, few gave a nice input like possibilities for new metas and debatable new mechanic or just value gimmick... others' saying I'm salty, etc, probably need to improve their read comprehension.

Yeah, I mean DK was such a big deal, and I don't see so far an exciting new mechanics to top DKs rotation, but just some other nice guys said, maybe too early, I hope we have some more stuff not just some lackey plays.

I just brought one simple question about the new expansion, you got that butthurt because your beloved forum got 1 more thread? I am probably not much of a gamer like you who seem like a forum administrator knowing all the threads and what is repetitive or not. I was going to elaborate more about how stupid and ignorant you are, but just looking at your profile picture, it speaks for itself.
There are quite a few cards that are basically reprints of old cards (ice lance, barnes to name two off the top of my head). That might be what gives you that feeling. But, there are quite a few cards that look like a lot of fun to play with, especially in Wild, which is where I have most fun these days anyway.
Blizzard created a completely new and fresh archetypes know as Odd/Even.
People complain so much they decide rotate all cards sooner.
Blizzard recicle old ideas in new directions and...
People complain the game is boring.
Impossible, just impossible.
i have to agree here, there is no way that blizzard can take that doesn't end in people complining, even if team 5 answers the call of make another expansion totally based on a wow event region or expansion(please asume for once that the game isn't "heroes of warcraft" anymore), trying to be accuerate as much as they can, people will complain if...a card is not a real npc/creep in wow.....and complain about how hearthstone is a copy paste from wow (cause yes, those persons also exists)
If the power incrase (year of the mammoth) people will complain that the following sets are waek, but also will complain that blizzard doesn't print strong enough cards, which only would end in a non sense of powercreeps and absurd cards to replace the last ones.
Uncreative is the wrong word.Rise of Shadows isn't uncreative or lazy or a rehash. Twinspell, Lackeys, and schemes are new.
But something is missing to make people feel this way.
And that is the WOW factor. Shine. Pizazz. ROS does notnany thing that compares to Old gods or Legendary Quests of other opener expansions.
Rise of Shadows lacks a new array of new build around decks.
Yeah, felt this way too... I like Hearthstone and I will continue playing it, but we can't help compare to older expansions with meta changers or cards that blow our minds.

Right, because an expansion has to have broken mechanics and people screaming nerf 2 weeks before even 3/4 of the cards have been released or else it's go to Hearthpwn and open up a new thread (because I'm too lazy to look for the 50 other threads about this same topic).
...to express my baby rage. (in gibberish).
Oh, and this happens every single expansion. If you care to look back, not a single expansion yet has anyone not cried about prior to releasing the majority of the cards. In case you wanted to know.
New mechanic in twinspell, schemes, and lackeys so far. I thought it was very interesting how they will keep each villian with cards that were influenced from the expansion they came from. Warrior has a new bomb style to play with, looks like hunter is getting spell power, rogue is once again getting some decent control type cards again, etc.
They've done a very good job, especially rotating Baku and Genn early.

The WOW factor is exactly what makes this game unplayable. Look at the disaster created by quests and DK heroes. The result has been a total class unbalance
Im actually hyped for this expansion (first time in a while) ig the standard rotation has something to do with it tho. But they revealed some pretty interesting cards imo
Well twin spell and scheme are "new" mechanics, but they are very slight modifications of existing ones. Twinspell- You cast the spell and get spell back, but only one time. Which is the nerf many proposed to Jade Idol years ago. Scheme is just like the spellstones except you don't have to do anything to upgrade them. So they took existing ideas, toned them down/made them simpler. Can't blame anyone pointing out the obvious, they are just recycling ideas.
Yes it's more difficult to come up with new, exciting mechanics and still keep the game balanced, but come on, it's not Blizzard is a tiny, struggling company. They could definitely pull that off, and probably will if the player base shrinks.
I feel the same way, this thread was so boring I also could not even be bothered to post here.
Rejoice, for even in death, you have become children of Thanos.

If you are in your first year of playing please read this post.
Dust does not burn a hole in the jar. Be careful what you craft, especially before and right after a rotation.

No, it's not just you... There are other stupid people, who keep making this same topic over and over again.
What about you use your creativity and post to the salt thread. Too many topics have been created with this same message... This is just spam

There are some new cool cards, so Im pumped as always.
Remeber, we have only seen 50 of 135 cards, and usually its hard to judge the powerlevel of cards before people try it in game.

omg people always complain go to salty tread
Favorite Cards: 1. Lord Jaraxxus | 2. Malygos| 3. Edwin VanCleef | 4. Zephrys the Great| 5. Deathwing

It was a question and some people enlightened me with some nice decks and possibilities inputs, your reply is the salty thing around here.
