They really don't take long and generally all mercenaries quests are easy to do.
However, you shouldn't be forced to do quests unrelated to Hearthstone to get Hearthstone resources. Battlegrounds falls under the same criteria but nobody complains because people actually love the mode, yet they should complain about that, too.
Why shouldn't you be forced to do quests unrelated to Hearthstone to get Hearthstone resources?
Just because Mercenaries packs have no value, and you can do Mercenaries quests in Mercenaries game mode. On my Asia server I didn't bother leveling up a single merc, so I cannot complete any of the quests. The fact that it's part of a chain of rewards makes it much worse. It can interrupt the chain for many players who have never had an interest in it.
Explain how it can interrupt the quest chain when u can easily complete the first bountie Quillboar on normal with the free mercs. Even if ur mercs are lvl 1 they will be lvl 5 after the first bounty, then the repeats of the first bounty Will be even faster. All im hearing are PPL that have zéro Idea of what their r talking about.
Because people who don't play mercenaries don't want to play it. Simple. If you ask people to do 12 pointless fights in a dead game mode they don't want to play just to unlock a quest for a standard pack, it's just bad design. You can have mercs quests, but keep them in the mercs submenu for the 12 people who play the mode, or at least have the step skippable, and not break the entire chain. It was painful enough to siut through the tutorial on my main, don't want to repeat the process on my second account, and many people are in the same position.

No. Controversial opinion, which is often where either the truth is found, or the obvious lie that needs to be addressed, gets downvoted to oblivion. Back-slapping, circlejerking, even virtue signalling, call it what you want, but that is the result of system with downvotes.
Message boards and other txt based media aren't youtube - youtube really really needed a downvote button, to combat algorythmic BS, adverstising, sell-outs, etc and so it was removed as Google make more money that way.

Just hook it to my veins!

I mean, the pre-release stuff on Diablo 4 looks promising as hell, like Blizzard finally got the message on D3 (that being that Path of Exile was the real D3, not Blizzard's cartoon monstrosity with an auction house slapped on top).
You've gotta hope that Diablo Immortal fails, just to discourage Acti/Bliz from pulling all sorts of pay2win shit with D4. Seriously, the aesthetics, style and physics look amazing. Hopefully they don't fuck it up through greed.

It's crap. Like nearly all mobile games it's crap becasue it controls likes ass - The game essentially plays itself, the character auto-moves, it's a half-idle game. Complete waste of time, and doesn't derserve to be a 'Diablo' game.

But I win with Rivendare builds regularly. That woiuld be impossible if he was snped first 76% of the time. Beasts and Mechs rely on him heavily..

The lesson to Blizzard here is, don't push your new content so hard that people are sick of it before you've given yourself a chance to tune it. I'm betting without this card that naga's are essentially crippled. And frankly at this point I don't care, along with damn near everyone else who play lots of BGs because we're sick of lobbies where 6 of 8 players are trying Nagas. With so many players chasing the same cards it becomes a straight RNG clownfiesta, and there is always one who highrolls based on pure luck. Not a fun time.
Maybe adress what Leeroy has done to mechs? Why did they nerf murlocs and quillboar with the last patch? ...where did the data to justify that come from when no one was playing anything but nagas?

Modern hearthsone is all about huge power spikes and outright win conditions...shit loads of them. They are nearly all busted and uncounterable. Quest hunter allows hunter to keep up in the traditional hunter way, with lots of face and chip damage. It feels super unfair because it is, but it's designed to counter balance a lot of other super unfair shit.

Hated the card from it's introduction, and the devs comparision to Deathstalker Rexxar just made me laugh, that card was a great design - where as this card was just a lazy copy/paste from duels. A mode where the treasure cards are inherently broken in order to provide power spikes.
I am glad it's been nerfed. I hope that we will see it less. I fear we will actually see it more as the likes of Paladin and Warrior incorporate it.

HSReplay tracks every single game played by it's users. Well over a thousand games minute.
At no stage have they been able to track any kind of pattern in the match-ups and if there were any it would be quite obvious given how many games they record.
People continually post of this forum about being matched up badly when changing decks, seeing fixed RNG working against them, seeing card draws being either too lucky or unlucky to be believable...
But it's all based on annecdotes at worst, or a short run of tracked games in their personal log at best - neither of which amounts to dick all.
Of course activision Blizzard have IP on all sorts of algorithm, they are heavily in the loot box box business, across nearly all their games. That doesn't mean some of the more nefarious ones are in use in hearthstone - and the second they were people would see.... I mean, err, people that are not so susceptable to conspiracy and paranoia would see...the rest of you see it already when it isn't even there - there isn't much helping you, you've been told so many times now.

What would be the point? People have been telling you you are paranoid, and full of nonsense for years now - yet zero impression or progress is made. Conspiracy nuts are conspiracy nuts, it's almost impossible to get them to see reason, and they cling hard to their theories for the sake of their ego. I don't know if you can call me a shill, I haven't spent money on the game in ages and don't play much constructed except for quests. I have no real love for Activison-Blizzard.
