after the last 2 releases it would be nice to see hunter have a day in the spotlight again

This was a very satisfying read, thanks Brode!

while i dont agree with Tyrande being attached to 40 packs, i do understand that outside of directly selling tyrande its very difficult to align terms when it comes to the internet sharing between the U.S and certain parts of Asia. this isnt the first time they have done something like this... sucks

...poor Alliance

they just need to rework overall power levels for cheap cards imo. if you look at it from a power to cost ratio, 1-3 cost cards are the most powerful in the game. as long as there is the ability to have lethal by turn 4 or 5 the meta will always be focused around aggro, whether you're playing it or targeting it

I think the main problem they should focus on is the ealry game. hearthstone matches are too strongly dictated by turns 1-3. one drops should RARELY have stat values that go past a total of 4 (i.e. 1/3 , 3/2 etc). think about them compared to later game cards: the difference between an 8 drop having 7 health/attack vs 10 health it isnt that big of a difference considering the removal available, but the difference a 1 drop having 3 health vs 2  or  3 attack vs 1 is HUGE. the game shouldnt be so heavily decided by the cheapest of cards

I would like to know if they plan on making the whole tribe/type mechanic more of a factor. aside from warlock and hunter there isnt really much types out there. even those classes type support is primarily in the core set

i like how Ben said "perceived as good" because alot of people dont realize that ladder isnt something every player is supposed to dominate. im not saying its perfect, but its designed to see how you compare against other players. if someone cant pass a certain rank (because they lose more than they win) then they should have to grind and get better. Lastly, card collection does play a big role in any card game but skill plays an equal if not bigger one. people will say things like "this game is pay to win" when there are tons of people who hit legend on free to play accounts and people who have every card in golden but cant pass rank 15

lol , these comments are hilarious! everyone is like "ban aggro", "everything should be free", "co op cause i cant pass rank 12 on my own"

ps. jk

Yi-sera and Yi-Sharj I think

This is a Class-legendary, and it doesn't punish you for playing taunts, it simply doesn't reward you as much. It still protects your other minions who are more fragile, or important. This can still be used to trade and deal face against non-taunt minions. And if Blizzard said that, Black Knight wouldn't exist either.

This is the Grimy Goons week. You will get an entire week dedicated to Priest, Mage, and Warlock cards during the Kabal week. Just be patient.

"Oh hey, I'm basing my thoughts on the variety of an expansion solely on the very core aspect on one of the three factions"

There is a clear pattern as to how the factions are going to work. We've got the grimmy goons for now, which means, Paladin, Hunter and Warrior will be extremely focused on minions in hand. Each is different: Paladin is +1 +1 for all minions, Hunter is one random minion, but a better buff, and Warrior is the specialist, with, so far, taunt and weapon specific buff. This card goes perfectly into that sense. Criticzing Blizzard for installing such a structure even though we haven't seen half the whole set yet and know nothing about the two others factions, is pointless.

Nope
