I actually recently completed my classic collection (At least it was complete before they introduced all those new cards to replace the Hall of fame ones. But I do have Whitemane and Brightwing at least).
The one I never got or played while it was in classic was Molten Giant. Its the one I never owned a copy of. And now I probably never will.
The site posted something on their twitter about an hour ago in regards to the Hearthstone reveal. I translated via google.
<pre id="tw-target-text" class="tw-data-text tw-ta tw-text-small" dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" data-placeholder="Translation">[Notice] "Assault! Exploration Alliance" is about the new card release that has received inquiries from "Haas Stone" fans all over the world, but July 22 15 o'clock is the original release date. It seems to be an announcement mistake on the official site. Please wait for a while until the information disclosure.
(Editorial department)</pre>
Not much to add, except that "Assault! Exploration alliance" is an AWESOME name. Now I want to know the Japanese name for the other expansions.
honestly I feel like the best solution to the bomb warrior thing is to make a card that removes the bombs from your deck.
Like, off the top of my head. Bomb sniffer: 1/1 beast for 3 mana epic. Battlecry, remove all bombs from your deck.
I mean its not too powerful, its stats are terrible so it likely wont see play outside of Highlander decks, but it will be a valuable tech card against Bomb warrior. And will give Highlander decks a fighting chance.
Keep in mind that earlier this year Blizzard laid off a ton of their employees, a lot of them from Hearthstone's PR department.
So a lot of the people responsible for handling the previous releases are gone and been replaced with new people, so they A) are probably gonna do it in a different way, and B) Probably aren't terribly motivated to hype people up because they just lost a bunch of people despite Blizzard doing so much because Bobby Kottick is a piece of shit.
"Oh yeah, we could do a standard card reveal schedule, but how about instead we get a ten hour loop of the trailer? Oh what are they gonna do? Fire me? They were gonna do that anyway."
I think this “counter” they’re keeping track of is a sham, I bet the cards are gonna get revealed one day after another with tweets coming out at the same time saying “hey guys ya got to 25%” and what not
You obviously weren't around for the Mean Streets of Gadgetzan reveal, where they had people vote to reveal the cards, and because so few people voted on the final one they didn't reveal the warlock legendary till after the final reveal stream.
Did any of you guys complaining about Succubus getting axed ever actually use her in any decks? At all?
I am like one of maybe five people who played Discardlock back when Discardlock was good. And I don't really give a shit that they got rid of succubus. I mean its not like Hearthstone is bereft of sexy ladies. Every expansion on another board I run down the cute nonhuman characters of Hearthstone on another board I frequent.
Also, are you really gonna dust Eviscerate and Deadly shot for full dust even iff offered? Really? Two Staple cards of classic set cause they changed the art (Hell in Eviscerate they barely even changed the art).
I'm sorry, but watching people losing their shit over the fact they aren't gonna have an inch high portrait of a demon lady on their fake cards in their card game any more is the saddest thing ever.
(Also, as long as we are bringing up card censorship, maybe we can do something about Spiteful Smith? Because if any card needs new artwork its that one).
Tell you what, because it was such a major change, everyone will get their dust refunded for Succubus Felstalker.
Its already been refunded to you. Go to town. A grand total of 0 dust for that basic card that none of you gave the slightest fuck about it before you were like "Omigod Blizzards takin ma bewbies."
Yeah, they pretty much abandoned the whole "vote to see the card" thing when people actually failed to reach the vote quota for the reveal of Kruul during the Gadgetzan lead up, so they couldn't show him.
Either they set the vote requirement way too high, or they overestimated how many people would vote (And this was right after the 2016 election so I think a lot of people were burned out on voting at the time), but they didn't reach the quota even after extending the time limit.
As for the gradual video reveal, the one for Un'goro was us suffering through a series of unfunny skits, in order to see the reveal of.... Galvadon. You really think Galvadaon was worth it? And I say that as someone who likes Galvadon.
Honestly I prefer the new system: Just show us the damn cards on a timer so we can see them and get hyped.

Most often I play it on curve when my opponent has something on board, and I get me a backstab.
Also once got a swipe to deal with an enemy board.

Good point, but I presume we're gonna get more lackey generators for Warlock and Neutral this expansion.

So are we just gonna ignore the new 2/2 lifesteal demon and the new lackey that were also just revealed by the reveal video?

They're not undead, they're Deathless, the Good aligned undead from Eberron.
These are the honored dead of Uldum, rising to help protect these sacred lands from the league of EVIL.
