Why can't you say the same about inviting people based on popularity then?

xskarma posted a message on RegisKillbin & Kripparrian Withdraw From Inn-vitational This Week - Blizzard Announces Plans and ReplacementsPosted in: NewsWhat if Blizzard realized their line ups for these events didn;t match their intended company goal they have for being inclusive in their games "Every Voice Matters" and chose to invite two highly skilled women from a long list of deserving candidates.
No quick fix, no "make them look better", just 2 deserving candidates for a spot in a tournament, chosen because they represent a shockingly underrepresented group in the original line up.
The original line up had 2 women on a group of 20 players. That's 1 in 10.
Even with this, there are only 4 women on 20 players, or 1 in 5, or 20%.
That is STILL not even close to the true % of women that play Hearthstone.
I'm perfectly okay with holding Blizzard to the fire over what is undoubtedly a dumb initial group of players. But that's not what some of the detracters are doing. Some of them are specifically upset that Blizzard chose women to replace the men that withdrew and question their qualifications and question that there are not better men to be chosen instead.
And THAT is bullshit. -

xskarma posted a message on RegisKillbin & Kripparrian Withdraw From Inn-vitational This Week - Blizzard Announces Plans and ReplacementsPosted in: NewsAre people really going to try and argue that a current Grandmaster and someone who represents their Country in international play and who has held Rank 1 on ladder should have not gotten invited, because they are somehow not qualified enough?
Really?
That's a special kind of bullshit.
I think these invites just go to show that there's plenty of women available who could show out in events like this, and all they need is a chance to show it.
Which they are hopefully finally getting, moving forward.

whatTheHeck posted a message on New Demon Hunter Rare Card Revealed - Razorfen BeastmasterPosted in: NewsOr Rogue or Priest. There are already three classes with a deathrattle theme so why would we need a fourth? I guess they have no idea for DH archetypes that aren't aggro or combo.
The thing is thate even the art feels more Huntery than Demon Hunter. Hope that means they're starting to make less Illidari cards tho, sometimes I have problems distinguishing between them.

JoshoPrime posted a message on Yearly Card Rotation - Notable Cards Rotating to WildPosted in: Newsin other words, we already knew about the rotation of those cards cause the iniciate set was revealed as part of the year of the dragon in the official announcement

QuatroBajena posted a message on Yearly Card Rotation - Notable Cards Rotating to WildPosted in: NewsThe initiate set was essentially to give Demon Hunter more tools at the start of year of the phoenix since the other classes all had an entire year of standard support during year of the dragon. Since the initiate set was basically just to help alleviate the problem of Demon Hunter not having enough cards, and now that it's had a year of support, leaving it in would essentially give Demon Hunter more support than other classes.

Dunno if anyone wants to pin this up somewhere, but it's basically a cheat sheet on what changes are coming once rotation hits.

This means that you probably get 1 legendary and maybe some epics. 2000 gold for 66 cards with 4 legendaries and some other cards is cheaper

This is a demon hunter card? Feels like it should be a hunter card.

Wouldn’t demon hunters battling alongside the burning legion defeat their entire purpose? Their things is to use demonic powers to defeat the burning legion, right?
