ChrisJD93 posted a message on Hearthstone Nerfs Coming February 5 - Equality, Cold Blood, Hunter's Mark & MorePosted in: News"Our goal isn't to make all good cards bad, it's to make cards that go in nearly 100% of archetypes and make them go in archetypes that make sense for them. There are plenty of powerful cards in basic and classic set we'd rather not change. These weren't on that list."
Only one card on this list fits this criteria, and it is the spellstone which will rotate in 2 months and nobody will pay attention at that point. These nerfs show that the dev team is trying to treat the symptoms rather than the cause of the illness. They have already admitted that Baku and Genn are a major screw-ups. And why? Because these two cards give you so much board advantage in a game where the sole interaction with your opponent is with their minions rather than with the cards they have, and most of the time, they are the ones who decide how your minions trade with his/hers. If you look at the numbers reported by VS, already 3 classes are almost non existent, and soon rogue and paladin (when baku/Genn rotate) will join the ranks.
This game is slowly becoming so polarized that either you play an aggro deck that wins on turn 5, or you have an OTK deck that stalls out enough to make your opponent concede. IMO, people are tired of absurd value cards that almost reach infinite value without you doing much but a small inconvenience that is not noticeable at all. If you don't think that is a problem, look at what they tried to pull off with warrior in the BDP, they tried to give infinite value to the class, but still wasn't enough.
I might just be rambling, but the game is seemingly gravitating toward two archetype that do not satisfy anyone, but they are cool to experiment for the casual audience to try and throw money at.

ur2ezchaos posted a message on Hearthstone Nerfs Coming February 5 - Equality, Cold Blood, Hunter's Mark & MorePosted in: Newsmost of the money in hearthstone probably comes from the large casualish playerbase. that being said, they are making changes that benefit competitive play very, very, slightly. and destroying the enjoyment of multiple archetypes without presenting new interesting ones.
so if their goal was to make money i dont think theyre even hitting that. blizzard is so out of touch and far removed from what it once was. after diablo 4:the phone, bfa, the mess that is current day overwatch, defunding HotS, and now this, they really are on a hot streak of failing -

Hieii posted a message on Weekly Card Design Competition 8.20 - Discussion TopicPosted in: Fan CreationsQuote from DoubleSummon >>Too bad you can't downvote some entries they are just so bad.. someone submitted a 4/4 windfury for 6 WITH A DOWNSIDE that's horroundously bad.
someone put overkill on a spell that deals no damage, another entry is a 8 mana 8/8 without an immediate effect (might as well be blank text).
before making a card ask yourself would you put that card in a deck.. then we blame blizzard for printing garbage cards.
very low quality entries this week.
I'm waiting for your entry :) Do you even posted a card in your life? You act like it's easy. Not everybody can make awesome cards, we need to make mistakes to become better. And obviously we need constructive comments to improve, just saying card are garbage isn't a constructive way to help.
Beside that, except the windfury one who has apparently being constructed for the solo run by mistake, the other cards are totally fine. The 8/8 is a big threat. You can have taunt it doesnt really matter because it still hit your face. Plague, etc are good exemple where it can be usefull.
The other one with 0 damage spell is simple to get (but you dont get it i guess), you need spell damage to activate the overkill. That's a smart design.

mungo2613 posted a message on Pity Timer Not Working for Legendaries in Journey to Un'Goro?Posted in: General Discussionwhy on Earth would anyone open packs now? in 2 weeks the new patch is going to guarantee you will never get a legendary duplicate any more. I can't believe someone is opening packs now.
My wife likes to open packs. As far as i have a pretty decent number of gold, why not let her open one or two? Even if i get a legendary duplicate - she will be happy to see that orange glow :-)Is your wife a goer? -

Genn Greymane and Mr. Baku the Mooneater should have been 10 mana cards with 1/1 stats. Instead, not only they give you incredible advantage, but they also have decent stats

being italian, I can say you do not put sliced tomato on pizza (in facts, this card back is horrible)

Basic and Classic cards have been ok for 5 years. Touching them, again, underlines how the new devs can't balance new cards. You like this nerfs? Good for you. This game is dying and Blizzard does not care, as long as fanboys will keep loving whatever shit they're being thrown.

remove the 100gold cap or give more dust/cards/packs. or improve droprate. this last expansion has the worst pack to legendary ratio ever
