Krayon posted a message on Something Blizzard does that I loathePosted in: General DiscussionSo for WoW, a Public Test Realm, is bad? So they should just NOT let people bug test stuff and just let the bugs go live and scramble to fix them after. Makes perfect sense.

sanchogrande posted a message on Something Blizzard does that I loathePosted in: General DiscussionIt used to be more fun to play on release day and know that everyone was experimenting. To see things for the first time as they were happening.

HalcyonEX posted a message on Something Blizzard does that I loathePosted in: General DiscussionYeah I don't get this either like if there are updated clients that have access to the new cards why not just release the xpac and let everyone play? It doesn't make sense to me

Thanatos2k posted a message on United in Stormwind Wild CombosPosted in: NewsWhich means the combo is actually extremely dangerous. If you've already counted up 3 cards for the trigger, using plot twist will mean the weapon procs on the FIRST drawn card - meaning only a single card would get the discount rather than four, or your whole hand under normal circumstances. Plot Twist is a terrible card to use with this weapon.

The instant response you’ll find from most is “it’s good publicity for the game.”
It isn’t. People are already hyped from the previews. If anything, I could easily entertain an argument that people would actually be (slightly) less hyped after seeing someone else already play the cards.
A huge part of the hype is playing the new cards, and I feel like watching someone else do it dilutes the hype a bit.

sPacEtiMe19 posted a message on Something Blizzard does that I loathePosted in: General DiscussionEarly access. The damn early access to everything.
In WoW, they let people get early access to raids/patch content via the PTR.
In hearthstone, it’s the theoryocrafting streams/play testing.
This rant was sparked by Hearthpwn’s most recent entry of “United in storm wind crazy combos.”
All the YouTube videos already with people playing several decks from the new expansion.
Just let everyone enjoy the free fall together out the gate. Let people all play at the same time and enjoy theoryocrafting decks together.
I have been very vocal about it being 100% acceptable to netdeck the best decks, especially when climbing the rated ladder. But what’s beyond unfun is when people already have deck codes/ideas at the ready the SECOND the expansion drops.
Theoryocrafting based on information (card reveals) is acceptable, as it cannot be directly playtested. But Jesus, stop letting players, generally above average players, get a run at the cards before anyone else can.

RaptorWithWings posted a message on United in Stormwind Wild CombosPosted in: NewsLet’s take a look at some “after” effects that can trigger multiple times in one chain. Knife Juggler for example says after you summon a minion, but doesn’t wait until an entire effect resolves. If you play something like Fiendish Circle, the first imp will be summoned, and Knife Juggler will interrupt the spell’s resolution to activate its effect, then the spell will resume from there. Other “after effects that can trigger like this function like this too.
Basically, if this interaction is consistent, the first trigger will only apply to the first 4 cards.

FardHast posted a message on United in Stormwind Wild CombosPosted in: NewsYou can't Nine Lives on turn 3 tho. You have to play the Tarantula and have it die and only then. Dreadscale/Kolkar Pack Runner + Serpentbloom stuff are better.
The elemental Sanctum Chandler as mentioned in the comment is miles better. 1 mana less, can be cheated by Elemental Evocation, can be tutored by Sandbinder, doesn't require an empty deck, draws a spell after Ignite shuffles itself.
Drygulch Jailor is actually really really bad, cause it costs 2 mana, which means you can't play reward turn 5. You have 2, 3, 4 mana which is exactly 9 mana to play 9 1-drops for the reward on turn 5. Going 2nd doesn't change it. Also it's a horrible topdeck. - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

Has Gnomeferatu seen its time come?

feels to me like it should have somehow been a warrior card...
elemental mage is going to be so OP.

Seems fun, but I guess since it's not OP most people won't see it a lot, but I'll see it down at rank 20 where I belong.

Only really good if you don't play any cards or very few cards as long as it's alive, which is pretty hard to do. But, it can kill a Chillwind Yeti and live. Yay. As someone noted, Naga Corsair and Gentle Megasaur can trade with this card and have strong battlecries, making Keening Banshee look mostly laughable unfortunately. Damn overpowered tribal affiliated cards.

They did a good job of making him cool and powerful and adding the Death Knight cards lets the people who wanted a Death Knight class have their Death Knight "class fantasy" a little bit too, in any classes' decks.

Discarding from the deck is not really any more toxic to me than having played a minion at a large mana cost and waited for it all game and it just gets hexed or something. Or never getting to play the thing because you get aggro-faced down too fast.

Seems awful, and is, probably. Doesn't even trade well with 3/3s unless you have no cards left in hand or have things like Clutchmother Zavas / Fist of Jaraxxus / Silverware Golem .

it doesn't powercreep Holy Smite because its target is random. Also it only affects minions.
