Twitchy posted a message on 24.4.2 Patch Notes - Arena and Battlegrounds Balance Changes - Game Improvements & FixesPosted in: NewsSlightly amusing how they often 'fix' broken arena cards like Sire Denathrius and Ysera the Dreamer by making them appear less often. Like, you're equally fucked when they're played against you but now it at least feels special when it happens.

NewBorn posted a message on Announcing Runestones - With Usage and Frequent QuestionsPosted in: NewsI am not interested in Runestone and they kinda scare me. I will try to explain break down their explanation on why Runestones are "Good for Players" (I don't really think they will be in most cases).
It all comes down to processing fees. To pay for anything with a credit card/debit card, a vendor has to pay a processing fee. That usually is about 1.5% to 3%. This can vary a lot between vendors and dollar amounts. Some can be flat fees per transaction. Credit Card processors do not want to get bogged down with billions of $1.00 transactions that might only net them 2 Cents when they can use the same resources to process an order that makes them $100. They can charge a premium for small charges to prevent this. That is why you will see "Minimum Purchase with Card" signs at small businesses and gas stations.
The same goes for purchases from stores like iTunes and Google play. They will often charge as much as 30% of the income for the purchase to the seller. That is what the whole Epic Games Vs Apple lawsuit was about.
What Blizzard says they want to do is allow players to buy cheaper cosmetics without bundles. Lets take Hero skins for example. Often you would have to buy 4 Skins in a bundle to get any. The reason for this was it cheaper to process 1 transaction for $20 then 4 transactions at $5. The player paid the same amount, but Blizzard lost more money on Fees.
What they "say" they want to do with Runestones is allow the player to have more chose while saving everyone fees. Instead of having to spend $20 on 4 Skins from one style, you can use the Runestones to buy 4 skins from 4 different styles if you want to.
There are a lot of Dangers with this line of thought, but I wanted to let people know what possible positive business reason behind the change was.

Reinan23 posted a message on New Demon Hunter Cards Revealed - Throne of Tides CardsPosted in: NewsPretty solid package for DH as expected since the class kinda disappeared after the last patch.
Fossil Fanatic is basically the Fel DH version of Cutlass Courier, seems good.but the best of these three is problably Herald of Chaos 3 mana 3/4 rush with lifesteal and it's naga? Oh dear... Interesting that it also work with fel spells, they clearly pushing that archetype which i like.
