    posted a message on New Expansion Teaser - Expansion Announcement On Monday The 27th!

    Rule #1 of Hearthstone Addons: ignore anything and everything that happens in books, movies, the games or comics. Hearthstone has always been 'what if?'s and 'That'd be cool'. Or did you really assume the Darkmoon Faire once summoned all four old gods into Azeroth?

     

    If they want Denathrius in the story, he'll be there.

    Oh great, those phantom achievements were really starting to tick me off. So far it actually seems to work this time.

    I think there are two main reasons why mercenaries are most likely more successful than people assume.

    The first being that it just does not make for a very streamer friendly format. Even the most entertaining players had trouble keeping a few hours of repetitive content entertaining, so they seemed to drop it after a while. Which in turn makes the mode seem underplayed since it doesn't get much public attention.

    The second being that Blizzard just does not share any data. It could be dying in the dust. It could be the most profitable mode ever. We just don't know.

    Personally I'd wager that it's not as successful as they hoped, but doing better than people assume. It's definitely a more mobile-friendly format, and allows for a few minutes of daily entertainment before moving on to something else.

    No, I think they did mean Yeti. People tend to call it that because in ye olden days of Hearthstone, Chillwind Yeti was a 4/5 card for 4 mana, that was actually a decent play on curve for its power level.
    So having those stats on a minion that can be played in turn 0, with rush, just makes it....well, a Yeti with rush, basically.

    To be honest I would prefer random random randooom to this, because I always seem to match up against people that research the life story of every card offered in their choice. Every. Single. Turn.

    posted a message on Balance Changes Coming Next Week - 5 Nerfs, 10 Buffs!

    It was kind of a "eh, might as well buy if before I waste 3 gold" card up until they released Quillboars.
    Now, with the blood shard mechanic, it actually leads to absurd power spikes early game. With only one or two blood shards (which are easy to get) you ensure that its frenzy effect always goes off, effectively buffing your entire board with +2/+2. Add a second blacksmith to that, and you're basically ensured that you'll swing quite a lot of encounters in your favor in the beginning.

    It's certainly no ****ing arcane cannon or whatever it was called, but it definitely has turned out to be problematic very fast.

    Great, now everyone will sport this same cardback on ladder.....can't ever have Individualism in HS. Unless maybe by attending eSports events.

     You're complaining that....other people got to read the solution too?
    Or are you seriously implying you solved the puzzle all on your own, something that took a global effort for everyone else, and are now angry that other people are using the same cardback?

    Both implications of your statement are just utterly ridiculous.

    They did nerf cards with mana/stat costs before, but in the case of Tickatus I guess they'd most likely approach it by lowering the number of cards burned.
