HoraceWalpol posted a message on Nobody talking about Ysera nerfPosted in: General DiscussionQuote from DeafKnight >>Quote from Kinkyjohnfowler >>Quote from Tommykoppo >>How can a card that remains the same be nerfed?
To you and the other guys above, you don’t sound as clever as you think. The card’s text remains the same but the actual effect of the card has drastically changed (unless the dream cards are separate for both versions). The pointless semantics are irrelevant however as Blizzard can choose to give a dust refund for any card they please, even if it hasn’t been nerfed. It’s entirely at their discretion.
It's not about "sounding clever", it's about being factually correct. And in that regard Tommy (and others) are completely correct, regardless of whether people wish to believe it or not.
A card's text provides it's effect and abilities. If those remain unchanged, then the card remains unchanged. If the card's strength lies in the strength of other cards which it synergises with, then those cards are the problem, not the original card, and therefore it cannot be considered a "nerf" to that card specifically and therefore the expectation of compensation is based purely in entitlement and greed and not in the spirit of the game or even basic good faith.
But also, as you surmise in the second half of your paragraph, Blizzard have literally no obligation to provide dust rewards for any change to the cards and do so out of their own good faith. However such generosity then provokes the more selfish-minded of the community to expect this sort of hand out at ever given opportunity and (worse) it becomes a further sense of entitlement and self-service.
You only have to look at the reaction of the vocal minority over the changes to the Tavern Pass and gold rewards etc.
Even after it was proven that their complaints were factually incorrect.
But that's obviously a different discussion that has been done to death by this point and not the focus of this thread... (well, not exactly)But the Dream Cards are not random "other cards", they are literally Ysera's effect, specifically tied to her. As another user mentioned above, if the treasures Heistbaron Togwaggle can discover were drastically changed for the worse, it would definitely be a nerf, even if the treasures and their effects are not specifically stated in the card's textbox.
For the sake of brevity and aesthetics, some cards effects are implied and relies on the player's knowledge of them. What does it mean to "wish for the perfect card" - Zephrys the Great's card text? What if his effect was changed to him just adding a random card from classic or basic to you hand, without changing his card text? Or what if Animal Companion summoned either a 3/3 taunt, 3/2 charge or 2/3 give your minions +1 attack, wouldn't that be a nerf, even if the card text is not changed?
Anyway, to return to the main subject of the thread: Has it been confirmed that the Dream Card changes will also apply to old Ysera, or is that just speculation? Because I wouldn't be surprised if they just keep her as is. If the Dream Cards are changed though, then it would be a nerf, and a dust reward would be appropriate. -

Vision136 posted a message on Nobody talking about Ysera nerfPosted in: General DiscussionA lot of people in this thread don't seem to understand OP's initial complaint, or even understand what's going on, so allow me to explain.
Firstly, the old Ysera is not being removed from the game, or buffed into the new Ysera, it is being moved to the legacy set. The new Ysera card is a completely new card.
Both Ysera's use the same Dream cards: Dream, Nightmare, Ysera Awakens, Laughing Sister, and Emerald Drake. Most of these Dream cards are being altered.
Dream now costs 1, and can only target enemy minions, Nightmare now gives +4/+4 instead of +5/+5, Ysera Awakens now costs 3, and only affects minions, Laughing Sister now costs 2, and Emerald Drake is unchanged.
3 of these 4 changes are very clearly nerfs, making the original Ysera much worse than before, which should be considered a nerf to Ysera.
It does not matter that this Ysera is rotating to Wild, it is still a nerf, and players who own Ysera should be able to disenchant it for full dust value.

Sarlatan posted a message on Zeddy Hearthstone Needs a Slight Reality CheckPosted in: General DiscussionQuote from PrincessKenny >>Zeddy has a history of abusing and bullying devs online. He doesn't even really hide it. He's an immature manchild that constantly whines and complains. He routinely trashes and bans his own twitch viewers and subscribers if they even remotely get out of line. Zeddy is merely using this outrage to further his views and if you believe Zeddy to be the voice of reason during these times, then you are the problem. He's entertaining sure but he's the worst person to lead this movement or whatever it is.
Nobody else brought nearly as much attention to the problems within Hearthstone as Zeddy.
Kripp, RDU, Zalae, whoever else, just play their little BG matches day to day and pretend everything's alright with the game, raking in EZ money in the process. They stay silent on matters such as this, they don't care about the little people. Meanwhile they get invited to prestigious events and advertise them left and right. If you think any of these people are better than Zeddy then maybe you are the problem.

Strongpoint posted a message on Im near level 30 and...Posted in: General DiscussionSo, you played the game to get virtual things not to enjoy the gameplay... Congratulation, you have an addiction and should be thankful that Blizzard introduced the new rewards system that reduced your interest in your addiction.

I've replaced Expired Merchant with Gnomeferatu, because I don't think I will need the value of the Merchant that often. Replaced Eater of Secrets with Kezan Mystic as I think it suits the meta better at the moment. And replaced Youthful Brewmaster with Zola the Gorgon. That 1 mana more can sometimes be a disadvantage, but generally speaking Zola is the better card.
Krul the Unshackled hasn't felt awkward yet, but I have only played 4 games with this deck. Won 3. I really like it so thanks for sharing!

Be careful with BEEEES!!! in Khartut Wall Druid. It's going to mess up your Witching Hour.

Not the best Reno Mage out there, but certainly lots of fun!
As a F2P-player this is my best take on Reno Mage.

I'm really interested in what you guys think about this idea. Would this card see any play? With which cards would this make a good combo? Obviously, [card]Flametongue Totem[/card] comes to mind.

RIP Yogg-Saron, Hope's End.
I agree with all the other nerfs.

I always thought the pity timer wasn't related to any specific pack, but just all packs in general. You sure that's how it works?

I invite you to play wild or arena. Lot better than standard.
