    posted a message on Open Letter: How to Run a Reveal Stream

    Who would honestly talk bad about Chris? Chris was awesome! Had it been anyone else that had to go through all of that, it would've taken 3 additional hours.

    I think most people were annoyed that they had to discuss absolutely every play they did, while roping on every turn. You could see that Chris was borderline giving up at the end, and just wanted it to go faster.

    I didn't like the stream either, but i do hope that Chris will be the one doing the future streams.

    They changed it before Boomsday were revealed.

    Chances are that you never noticed, because it's not a card you see a lot.

    Gwen and Baku will rotate out

     We didn't know back then. I wrote that comment the 22th of January, the news that they would rotate out came the 28th of Febuary.

    posted a message on We're Designing Textually Equivalent Cards in This Week's Card Design Competition

    I'm fairly sure they all choose "Top cards of the weak from CustomHearthstone Reddit" because Reddit is a way bigger platform, and generally recieves a larger amount of upvotes. The card quality is about the same overall, as Reddit receives more cards, but have a tendency to prefer meme cards, over actual cards, where we forbid meme cards.

    Several creators that started on Hearthpwn have been dominating the CustomHearthstone thread (myself included, being the top designer of 2018). The reason why it's often the same people who win, is mostly that they have a tendency to make the best cards.

    posted a message on Good game emote at end of game = bad manner?

    I generally look at it depending on when the "gg" is emoted.

    If you do it before you kill your opponent, as if you just drew lethal, i'd consider it BM. If you do it after you've already killed them in that phase out stage, i'd consider it to be decent manners.

    But like... Who actually get so frustrated that they will friend request the opponent and tear them down for pressing a botton?

    Also, the Vulpera you find as the Rogue alternate hero, is Captain Eudorafrom the Freehold Dungeon, located in Kul Tiras.

    She has no relation to the Sethrak located in Vul'dunn.

    I agree that it's strange that they're not taking action against Baku and Genn, as they're by far the biggest offenders of powerlevel in the game, while still making the game increasingly stale, as most games playing the decks and against the decks feels exceptionally similar.

    This is what Kibler has said many times.  Is there some reason to parrot it for the 10,000th time?

    Don't get me wrong.  I like Kibler, and often watch his streams and VOD's.  But what you say here is nothing new under the sun.  You are free to agree or disagree with his suggestions for the game.  But the game developers have already responded to him and to the community.

    Threads like this are far more stale than Baku/Genn.

     I said this long before Kibler made this recent video. I've been complaining that Blizzard have begun including more and more cards that are included in my "Unholy Trinity" of mechanics, that i believe are the current core issues of Hearthstone, with Baku and Genn providing "Infinite Value" in the form that they allow you to get more value out of your Hero Power than your opponent.

    Currently what i see is that people always complain about either one of three types of cards, that all belong to different types of archtypes. These being Infinite Value for control decks (Like with Hero cards, Baku/Genn and Jade Idol), Mana Cheating effects for aggro and Midrange decks (Like Mysterious Challenger, Keleseth or Emerald Spellstone) or combos that deal an infinite amount of damage or almost infinite amount for combo decks (like Mecha'thun, Exodia Mage and APM Priest).

    You can have extremely powerful tools that aren't complained about to near those degrees, despite them being on the same powerlevel in total, (like Flanking Strike or Defile). I personally believe these mechanics are the most hated, because they show the absolute extremes of those respective archetypes.

    I predicted that Baku would be an extremely unhealthy card back before Witchwood was released, and i predicted the same thing for Mecha'thun for these exact reasons.

    59 wins in a row after rank 5?

    You must be rank -2 Legend at this point.

    posted a message on Blizzard should fix the game economy and increase chance to open Legendarys

    Increasing the frequency of legendaries diminishes the excitement of opening one, which not only creates fewer "feel good moments" but also makes Blizzard less money, which is not ideal for business strategies.

    I personally believe it's more likely that they'll adjust the amount of dust that cards give, with Commons giving 10 Dust and Rares giving 25 Dust, to go accordingly to how Epics and Legendaries currently work, with giving a fourth of the dust that is required to craft them.

    Where do they get the art for these cards?

     Excluding the art sources that Linkblade mentioned, then Artstation and Wow.Blizzgame are top notch art sources aswell.

    Usually what you want for your Hearthstone card is something that is drawn, and not too realistic, while still not being too cartoonish.

     And it is ok to use images that are technically not yours? That's what I was worried about when I started to try making some of my own.

     Considering it's under fair use, as long as you don't use it for profitable gains, you're in the safe zone. I believe Custom Cards is included as satire, which also includes the art not being the focus of the submission.

    It should be noted that Article 13 in Europe might hinder this fair use after it is implemented, but you're in the safe zone for now.

    Also, i highly recommend noting who made the art that you're utilizing, as it's a great benefit to the artists that create the artworks :D
