That card is slow AF, don't think it will see any play

I just got a weekly quest that asked to play 10 old gods. It's a hard quest to do even when I have the only 2 playable old gods (Y'Shaarj and Yogg) since most games you either win before you can play them or lose before you can use them, I can't imagine how hard to complete this is for F2P. So whatever I re- Rolled it . I got "Play 50 corrupt cards". So I went an played Clown druid. and went out of my way to play as many as I could (played at least 10), when the game was over I only got progress for 1 played card.
Not sure if the quest refers to playing them in their uncorrupted versions (in which case its just stupid because why go out of your way to play the unintended version of a card) or if its just a bug on an already crappy system.

No one says they deserve anything , but if other games are cheaper and more fun, why should they stay in this game?

Comparing HS to a gacha game shows you how low the game has fallen.  Lets see why the cost of the game is a problem for all players.

F2P players don't want to play the game because there are way cheaper options out there. The only leverage HS has over other card games is the bigger player base. However if F2P players leave, HS starts to lose that advantage because wether you like it or not, most of the playerbase in any F2P game is F2P.

But hey I am P2W, why should I care ? Well if you see another game is getting more popular and the playebase there starts getting bigger than in HS (This is already starting to happen BTW) the only reason to stay in the game is how fun the game is because for what you pay for one expansion here you could probably get the whole collection for those games, and how good is the gameplay compared to those games? This takes us to your last point

Have you seen how queues have been getting longer on high ranks in ladder? How very few of the popular streamers play ladder for the  whole length of the expansion? Ladder gets very stale very quickly and its mostly because of this :

even top tier decks use less than 10 cards from a new expansion. In other words, if you have been playing for example hunter now, all you need is probably craft 5 cards or so and you can continue enjoying the new expansion.

People play one deck for the whole expansion because that's the most efficient AND cheapest way to play the game. No one even tries to play different decks because not only you are going to lose more, its more expensive, so why bother?

So unless you don't care if the game you have spent hundreds of dollars in dies, yes this affects everyone.

Gold is strictly better than packs because you get to pick where you spend that gold.

I'm really disappointed at the new reward system. This was a perfect opportunity to lower the cost of the game and instead they just monetized it more. Everyone agrees that the main reason people are quitting the game is the high cost it has. I mean by buying the preorders I could buy Cyberpunk AND Demon's Souls, and still I wouldn't have all the cards for the expansion ( On top of that Blizz had the BALLS to launch the game at the same time as Cyberpunk, they got really lucky they moved the launch date) . The high cost of the game is the main reason for the meta getting  stale so quickly because most people just get enough gold/dust to craft 1 deck and they will craft the most boringly optimized deck to  climb ranked.
Even if you spend enough money every expansion to get every card and don't care about the price of the game, this affects you. You are spending money on a game dependent on it's player base. If the player base quits and the game dies, you are spending money on nothing.

Why tf would you play it on turn 4 to burn 5 off your own deck?

And what kind of Warlock deck are you running that drops all other demons to guarantee you pull Tickatus, and can waste turn 3 for a draw 1?

Burning cards off your own deck does not matter unless you are either a combo deck or a control deck that wants to go to fatigue. 4 mana 8/8 for that "drawback" is pretty good. You probably run a demon only aggro/midrange deck. The wasted turn 3 might be too slow though.

Hey guys, do you still think Zephrys offers good cards? Always offering removals, so why this was Sap better than SW: Death? This is literally opposing problem I had with OP.

That's hilarious XD . Sap was offered because Zeph cant read deathrattles,  and sap was the best answer to a deathrattle on a big body  for 2 mana. I understand why you got mad for the first case because windspeaker made no sense there, but here you could have just played Lord Barov and kill it with the weapon to take no chances with Zeph.

These cards have less flavor than fan made cards. Why is this a mage spell? 

With all this power creep they are going to have to increase the max health of all heroes. People are already dying to quickly.

I actually thought it could be a Klaxxi / Heart of Fear Expansion, but at this point it´s too obvious it's Darkmoon faire.

 I hope they release the Death Knight hero as the 11th class next year. The Lich King himself.

“...on the rare situation of toxicity” lmfao!

why cant be unlocked when you finish the prolog.. :(

Quote from DeWitt >>

so they are giving an identity to each class, demon hunter go face

 Are people really still thinking demon hunter is the go face class? Really? It has a few really good early minions, don't get me wrong. But it has so many more late game and control tools than aggro. Considering dragon hunter is the aggro deck to beat at the moment, which can comfortably kill you by turn 5/6, with free disruption across the board in cheating out freezing traps, dragonsbane and rotnest drake, I'm really not seeing how demon hunter can come close to matching that. And that is ignoring the still very viable pure face hunter with toxic re-enforcements. I'm expecting demon hunter to be the best midranged class for now, with a bit more of a heavy finish.

Seeing the librams hmm interesting, seeing the awesome prime legendaries all the other classes get. OMG I BET WE WILL GET A AWESOME LEGENDARY PALADIN LIKE VINDICTOR MARAAD THAT WILL BRING BACK CONTROL PALADIN ,WHERE YOU FEEL LIKE A REAL FUCKING PALADIN.

Blizzard: Murgur Murgurgle! :)

For all of the Hearthstone's team's stress of class identity, I'll never understand why Paladin is a Murloc class.  Seriously, a class of honor and righteousness employs.... Murlocs?

I have been an iOS Hearthstone player for a few years now, and I've never encountered this sort of circular bug before.

I open the app (fresh), and it says "Let's go to the store to start the download."  I click the "Open" button under this message in Hearthstone, and it takes me to the app store, and more specifically to the Hearthstone app within the app store.  I have already downloaded the app/update ... so the iOS app store has a button that says "OPEN".  When I tap on that, it takes me back to the Hearthstone app... which loads up the same message box as before ("Let's go to the store to start the download.")

I have force quit both Hearthstone and the App Store.  No avail.

I even force quit all my apps and hard booted my iPhone 11... still no dice.

Essentially, the app seemed to be completely dead and unusable...   :(

... ... ... ...

...or so I thought!  I ended up deleting the app entirely from my iPhone.  Then I re-installed it from the app store.  It's working again.

It's a pain, but hey... at least it's a fix.  (can't go more than 12 hours without playing a match... it's my time-waster, my outlet)

Necessary, but Battlegrounds really needs more options, not just different levels of power of the same options.   You only have pogo as a occasional alternative right now.   And I guess seeing Tirion as  a hero option.
