My game crashes quite a bit on the iPad and every once in a while on mobile and it’s always when something important is happening on my turn. Sometimes you question whether it’s your opponent is running an outside program or something they did to get you to miss a turn but it’s probably nothing. Just seems that way. But annoying either way. 

same thing goes with the rope. My rope ends as soon as it touches, opponent gets like 10 secs extra…..

 Your opponent’s rope doesn’t go for extra time.  The animations run past the time of the rope expiring on their end, and on your end it appears to keep burning until animations end so that you don’t lose any of your turn to said animations.

Someone explain to my dumbass, what double drops are happening?  Can you get six packs from watching on Twitch and another six from watching on YouTube?  I don't get it.

In the US client you can see the portrait in collection manager if you scroll to unowned skins.  In there it’s called Felfire Ragnaros.

Saw nothing but Mages with no minions yesterday trying to have fun in this brawl.  Loaded up a Paladin deck with a bunch of low cost spells, high cost minions, and Front Lines.  Turn two they had nothing and I had a 6 minion board that included The Ancient One.

I feel like there is existing support for the card, but it's all in Wild.  Things like Dispose of Evidence that shuffle something back into your deck.  But Xor'toth in Wild feels like a really bad idea.

Alright. Point taken !

I guess you're right Mint. I never played World of Warcraft.

 So in WoW there isn't like a SPACE theme persay. The Demons, Orcs, and Draenei come from different planets. The Draenei have a ship The Exodar that crashed on the main planet of the game. So they're just using that stuff. I can't say Hearthstone developers are true to the lore though. They like to invent characters that didn't exist in WoW.

 At this point, I just assume that the lore in Hearthstone is either something Harth made up for the game, or maybe the storylines that they have are from an alternate timeline in WoW.

I always love finding new ways to Mind Blast people!

On mobile, patch isn’t live yet I guess.  I had Haunted Carousel Brawl.  Got a quick win and a Standard Pack.  Cant wait for the actual event.

I saw the "All Cards Revealed" graphic today and thought "Yeah... a few weeks ago."  Now they are officially revealed!

Right?!?!  Also, Festeroot being an Epic AND being so much worse for the same mana cost... Wow!  The only saving grace for Festeroot might be the Undead tag.  If they lower its mana cost in a future buff patch, it could maybe (but probably not) find it's way into some kind of Undead swarm deck.  Would need a really good Undead buffing card to drop with the multiple tokens too.

I can't wait for the multiple Expanse videos with this intro.  Holy Wrath.  Another Pally option is hope it survives and use Blessed Champion to double attack.  Could also use Shaman to hit it with Windfury.  How many ways can Mark get lethal with this monstrosity?!

You were more right than me!  LOL

Worst thing I ever encountered was players who would wait until rope was halfway burned, then drop like 20 plays in rapid sequence. By the time they finished their animations and such, when my turn came, it's instantly ended. I got locked out of playing a few times using this method

 That should be reported because something is bugged if that happens.  A long time ago they supposedly fixed this issue to not skip your turn after DisguisedToast highlighted a way to do that (and temp banned him for showcasing the exploit).

Supposedly the timer on your turn should not start until animations are done on your end.  However, it could be bugged based on a specific animation, or maybe it only waits so long before starting your timer.  You’d think with Shudderwock still being played in Wild they’d be equipped to handle 20 min animations.  Either way, in the past they’ve worked to fix this issue.  If it ever happens, file a ticket.

Thijs is excited so it’s the NFT expansion!

But for real, every speculation I’ve seen all year is Pandaria and Monks for this expansion.  And look at their robes! Very monk-like (at least IRL monks).

It’s a scam because poster lost some games and can’t accept that they lost without the game being rigged against them!

In a large enough sample size, the RNG that goes in a player’s favor and RNG that goes against a player would likely be pretty even.  When it happens back to back it feels like the game is against you, but it isn’t.  It’s just an unlucky streak.  Our with things like Window Shopper during April/May the RNG was more predictable with fewer demons to discover, and the DH players kept discovering Magtheridon almost every time.

But we also tend to remember the times RNG goes against us more than when it doesn’t.  So that also pushes people on an unlucky streak to start thinking the game is rigged.  As a whole I feel like society everywhere is also pushing into this idea that anything they don’t like is also rigged.  Whether it be politics, sports, or whatever.  Not everything is a conspiracy out to get you, people!
