Some ideas:

• Kotick's rumble
• Fractured in shares value
• Knights of the testing forgotten
• Descent into Twitch view

"May - Mobile Game Reveal"

Well you know what they say.. save the best worst? for last.

That change to smuggler is straight up unecessary imo, i feel bad for my homies that play Quest Rogue they didn't do anything wrong ... Standard ladder is the most painful experience we  had in a while with the meta being extremely polarized and highrolly, also there is a ton of broken aggro decks that just do way too much and never run out of cards.

I dont get why they choose to nerf a deck that's cool and not oppressive at all? (Yes, it is a nerf)

 Was there ever a meta where broken aggro decks weren't able to constantly card dump?

I love it when they throw the word "bargain" in

Quote from TheLemming >>d

I can't help but think Tess got a massively short end of this "expansion's" stick. Hunter of Old right now basically seems to be "Gain 1 coin each turn while this is in play." simply due to how the other buddies work in conjunction with their heroes. I mean Crabby's ability is all about the damage your HP does, Spirit Raptor's is purely based on elemental invocations used, Raging Contender requires Hooktusk's hero power...

 ? She works perfectly in line with how the hero works.  If you play against something irrelevant to your comp she's worthless and on the flip side she can be very powerful.

"New mercs" lol

Nobody cares about "new mercs", especially when it's so painful to grind them. What mercenaries need is global gameplay rework, and additional game modes. Until those would be introduced, mercs are doomed to remaind dead.

I don't have info on purchases that blizzard have, but do anyone really buy merc merchandize? At this point, i'm positive that blizzard think "Okay, that was major miss. Lets try to sell as much packs as we can, as expensive as we can, so we can reclaim some funds out of that failed project". But do people really buy those? I still doing some dailies just in case when the mode would finally being refurbushed, so i would be able to play with "amassed wealth". But at this point, i almost entirely lost any hope that they even plan to do anything other than "Oh, hey, we draw another picture, so new merc available, buy ours 50 packs, so you can acquire it!". I'm actually disgusted at this point...

 New Mercs!

Now do you care?

Not sure why kripp is considered a top8 player. He is horrible compared to the others listed.

You should return your fraudulent GED, can't even pass a simple literacy test.  It doesn't say he's a top 8 player.

I heard if you end every sentence with an exclamation mark it automatically makes everything more fun!

It is pretty insane how low the odds for legendaries got from this expansion. I don't know if the team decided to make it intentional, because from the other expansions with all my saved up gold [5000+] I was able to secure WAY more legendaries than before. 

Also as a point of reference, I unpacked 2 legendaries from 50 packs. Where as I would usually net 4-6 from other expansions. 

 It's almost like it's random.

This guy over here claiming devs secretly changed pack odds because of his 50 yes FIFTY pack sample size lmao.  You'd have to open that x 1000 to even start analyzing anything critically

That doesn't really say that he is a top 8, it just says that he is in a pick of 8 amongst the top players. The pool could be the top 100 players or the top 1000 for what we know.

So you've been opening packs since 2014 and you're still surprised and upset when casino mechanics mess with you ? Seems to me you've been having a way above average pack opening journey througout the years if only now you get your big "worst opening" moment. Shit happens !

Remember when we didn't have duplicate protection if you want to feel any better. This was hell. Literal wallet hell.

 There were tavern brawls which had a higher replayability. 

I got bored after one game LOL

Thanks god. I'm so relieved it only took blizzard 16 years to remove a reference to a 27 year old movie!

Its a matter of context, perspective ect on the entire situation which none of us have at this time. And reacting purely based on the information we do have is objective if you want to take a stance take a stance on it but remember you do not have all the information. I could express an opinion 1 way or the other but fact is it would be only based on existing information which we dont have enough of 85% of it is probably accurate based on what we have now and 15% of it is probably just inflated over exaggerating the situation. But then thats just contextual as we dont actually have all the info just a small part of it even if we dig around.

Following it becoming more known as well a lot more of the follow up info not directly out is probably going to be more fake than real as well because of people just wanting to get popularity off it. While not all of it will people are going to exploit it for whatever they can.

Riot / Ubisoft and EA all had similar things reciently looking into just less publically known and far less stand out than the accusations with activision/blizzard.

There are people that overreact to things and take things to far and then there are situations that the perspective is valid. Dealing with 1000's of people daily you hear the complete garbage of the world and the realism. Things like he got promoted because hes friends with the boss. That is probably not sexism that is called they get along well if he works 85% as hard as you and your a girl or a guy fact is culturally they get along better and the person is getting promoted purely for that reason. Other situations that person might be 50% as good and its just not worth the risk vs reward for your higher up to promote that same person. Having worked in a dozen different positions in the same role 9/10 times before the interviews even take place there is a person in mind for the position and if that person applies they are going to get it. Its just favortism culturally you get along better you'll work together better. However every person does have people there friends with who completely would be a waste of time to promote. 99/100 times there its nothing to do with sexism while there are situations that would be the case. Its universal not the video game industry in that case. The biggest difference there are the number of people of one gender in that industry makes it stand out more. Again there are situations where that does exist but its an example of how things are contextual. You could be thinking it is purely cause you worked hard where it was purely they just got along better in general and that 15% better you were was just not enough to tip the scales. I've lost promotions for the exact same reason and been like hey it happens.

Again its contextual same time there is a tone of you can find online of Alex Afrasiabi acting like a complete sexist *BLANK* that exist out there which would lead a person to believe at least some of it is true and not just in a I said something stupid way. In an I am a creepy human being way. Same time from a neutral perspective not saying its accurate in anyway in a lot of those videos you have blizzard CEO Alan Brack. Who while is actions are still unacceptable comes off more as a bullied high school kid just wanting to fit in which doesn't come off the same way just more like a I am weak and can't stand up for things I don't agree with. But again this is said with a lack of information which honestly thats why court systems exist. To sort that out as its a matter of perspective. We dont have the necessary information to make a call as to what the extent of the situation is. If guy or girl you feel like your voice isnt heard by management they may be afraid to come forward till after the fact because they feel like there higher ups are not capable of dealing with the situation for one reason or another.

If as streamers they don't wanna do there card reveals because they feel strongly about the situation that is there choice to do so. If they still wanna stream the content because they enjoy the game or its there way of making a living its also there choice. Its not your lively hood on the line taking either stance its is there income. In a fair number of cases a large number of us do not live in the same country as some of those streamers our income is not in the same situations ect. However at the same time if blizzard decides to give the reveal to someone else and they deal with the repercussions of that its also on them or they get shut down for reveals in the future invites ect in the future. The information just isnt there personally in my opinion at this time for anyone to take a side 1 way or another on the situation without context.

I think it would have been smarter to bring it into the lime light and still do there reveals to get attention on the subject. As its a more neutral perspective given the situation and to present the information to let people make there own decisions. Because everyones going to have there own opinion on the situation 1 way or another.

This is the company that used to claim that players would find a second page of deck slots "too confusing."

Crossroad Watch Posts is a much more stand alone card than Kargal.

It's the golden cards from the new core set. You'll have access to them when rotation happens and the new expansion launches.
