Great News, does it mean that African players can finally be recognised and compete? if so that's awesome

This thread is not about the game dying, but rather Blizzard making ongoing improvements to Hearthstone.

maybe blizzard learns something from it (even though i think blizzard has not much to do with it... activision does)
being the #1 card game on the market doesn't mean you can milk your audience for more ridiculous shit all the time
(PS: please DON'T preorder video games anymore, buy it when it's out and you actually read some reviews you can trust. pre-ordering is the most consumer unfriendly thing & you reward them for doing so. just fyi)

Billie_Lurk posted a message on Global Games Cheering on Twitch is Live! Cheer for Teams, Get Packs and a Card BackPosted in: NewsSo let me get this straight. It's a promotional event we have to pay for. Incredible. Locking the card back behind a 35 dollar pay wall is just the cherry on the shit cake. Blizzard has no respect for anyone that plays this game. Also to the "it's just a cosmetic people". It's just a money grab is what it is. Your dedication to playing their game and watching their tournaments means squat. Cough up more money jack and "celebrate" with us! Yeah fuck that noise.

BlueberryQ posted a message on ArtifactPosted in: Other Games$20 is nothing, if the game is good and rewards skill more than RNG and grinding. I’m definitely excited for Artifact and I will be in the closed beta.
FTP players do not seem to understand the value of their TIME. That’s one thing that Artifact has explicitly set out to address - there will be no grinding for cards. It’s a brave move, in my opinion, and I hope it succeeds. It may be that Artifact targets a more cash-rich, time-poor audience, that are looking for a more complex, skill-intensive, game.

LeAdderNoir posted a message on The Most Popular, Successful, and Worst Cards of The Boomsday ProjectPosted in: NewsLots of comments here not understanding how statistics-driven rankings work... you can't disagree with a particular card being statistically bad. You can express an opinion that it is better than the statistics suggest, but the stats are what they are, folks.

You call it "Miracle Moments", I sadly call it "Luck trumps Skill". Don't get me wrong, it was a great championship to watch, but too many games and matches were decided on completely random events. Name another e-sport where randomness plays such a major role in determining the winner...? (BaiZe and Pavel especially got short changed in the luck department if you ask me.)

I just died from 30 health in an OTK against Priest. The Priest had Shadowreaper Anduin as his hero and already played Raza the Chained in a previous turn.
OTK:
Hero Power (2 x damage)
Prophet Velen
Hero Power (4 x damage)
Mirage Caller on Prophet Velen
Hero Power (8 x damage)
Circle of Healing
Hero Power (8 x damage)
Silence on Mirage Caller
Hero Power (8 x damage)
On the one hand I'm impressed with the combo, but at the same time I'm super salty that these shenanigans are possible! Especially given that I was in complete control of the game up to that turn!

Let's be honest for a moment, if a few hundred or even a thousand people make the decision not to spend real money on Hearthstone for the next expansion or foreseeable future, Blizzard won't even notice.
However, competition is the proven vehicle for driving down prices. What we should all be hoping for is that games like Gwent and The Elder Scrolls: Legends continue to grow and do well. When hundreds of thousands or even a few million players start migrating to these games, Blizzard won't have a choice but to rethink things. And they already have... the "no more duplicate Legendaries" is a direct result of the competition starting to take effect.

Last 10 games on ladder, 8 against Druid (good job Blizzard!) The games where I lost were all swung in the Druid's favour through Ultimate Infestation. This is Mysterious Challenger (back in the day) level frustration at the moment. (All these previous Pirate Warriors that now suddenly think they can play control too!)

Sorry Mr Ayala, but I do not agree with you on Ultimate Infestation. Firstly, the card should never have made it past the design phase. Comparing it to Firelands Portal should give a good designer an idea of why this is going to be a bad idea! (3 Mana for draw 5 cards and gain 5 armor... sure...) So 5-10 days is already more than enough time to make a change. Secondly, saying that the card is not responsible for Druid wins is beside the point, even if it were true, which I doubt. It's an unhealthy card which negatively impacts both gameplay and how the player community is experiencing the game.

Can anyone please explain to me why, after creating a card like Jade Idol, which shouldn't ever exist in a card game, we now have to deal with Ultimate Infestation as well?
Someone seriously needs to get fired over at Team 5!

I want an emote that says "Shame!" while a bell rings (you know, Game of Thrones)... for every time I face a Pirate Warrior.

I will agree with the OP on the fact that I too feel Blizzard is running a little short on new ideas. I do commend them however for introducing Lifesteal.
Ok, so we haven't seen all the cards from the new expansion, but I think a golden opportunity was missed to really bring more graveyard mechanics into the game. (With the theme of the new expansion, it could have been an interesting new design space to explore.)
