Dr. Boom, Mad Genius
There is definitely some questions about how this card works, so here's the deal!
- Dr. Boom's Hero Power is randomized every turn. It randomizes on your opponent's turn so they can see what to expect.
- You can never get the same hero power in a row.
- Dr. Boom does not appear in the Arena.
These are his different emotes.
- Greetings: "Here comes the BOOM!"
- Well Played: "You. You're good."
- Thanks: "Thanks! I'll destroy you last."
- Wow: "NICE!"
- Oops: "Huh. Failure IS an option."
- Threaten: "Don't make me push buttons!"
Here are his five different hero powers.
Puzzle Lab
The Puzzle Lab will become available starting August 21.
When you experience The Boomsday Project’s free single-player content, The Puzzle Lab, you’ll discover that science is fun! And dangerous! Not necessarily in that order! You’ll need to get your security clearance before you can gain access to these secrets, though.
New Gameboard
New Card Backs
Below are two new card backs for The Boomsday Project. A pre-purchase exclusive back featuring Mech Jaraxxus and a card back available through the solo PVE content, Puzzle Labs.
Emp operative should have been “rusty crab” or something
power spike is huge on this expansion, lets hope it doesnt become a gvg part 2
Or dragon, or pirate. First full expansion to do that.
We really need some murlocs
Is this really a bad thing?
I think its great Bliz are encouraging us to think of fresh deck idea, not continue to produce murloc paladins, and dragon preists, like we do each expansion with slightly different cards.
Also I imagine there will be plenty of murlocs in the final expansion of this year.
KaC also had no murlocs. Its been rough.
So they buffed aggro decks
Also they buffed combo decks
Also they buffed mid-range decks
Also they buffed Tempo decks
poorest is control again but they buffed it a bit too.
There will be great times on next 3 months.
I really liked the expansion.
Why do u like it? I need someone to change my mind, cus all i see is combos, wich means im stuck watching someone draw all his cards and then kill me. We didnt get a single card to help us out, its nothing i can do. Unless i wanne play warlock for 3 months.
I liked it because I am a meme player and there are so much meme posibilities.
I don't know if the competitive players also liked the expansion but it seems meta will change in my opinion with this huge power level. I guess everyone embraces a meta-changer expansion.
I did some theory crafting and there actually are a lot of good early game mechs that have synergy with each other. we'll just see if it can compete with the other decks in the game
why some classes get the OMEGA card and others don't
Because Blizzard didn't want to give every class an Omega card. Same reason why not every class has a new hero, project, or lots of mech support.
Because Druid exists, basically... the ramp would make this mechanic completely stupid forthe class, so they decided not to give Omega cards to everyone.
So many reprints...
And so many fun and creative new cards.
Don't act like Ice Rager, Am'gam Rager and Shadow Rager don't exist. Unless you want Coldlight Oracle in Standard with Pogo-Hopper.
I mean yeah, Steel Rager, but at least it's a unique take on the concept, with it being a 5/1 with Rush. Might actually make it useful, combined with Magnetic.
not sure why you are downvoted - they even reprinted tank force max if you can spot it (functional reprint - not identical reprint).
Baron Rivendare, Coldlight Oracle, Gang Up, Evolved Kobold, Primalfin Champion, Play Dead, Hogger, Doom of Elwynn, Iron Juggernaut...
I'm not saying the are not any new original and fun ideas, but a lot of cards are just straight up remade old cards with either a different statline or w/ or w/o a minion.
i thought all the cards were supposed to be revealed today why some are missing?
Where is the super good 3 mana neutral magnetic minion that makes upgradable framebot really good? I don't know if aggro mech decks can exist without it
Bronze Gatekeeper, Obviously :P
Honestly glad there is no 4 mana strong neutral magnetic thing. I guess Steel Rager is the closest there is to be a strong thing to curve out with the framebot.
