Yes and that is exactly the point. You could go on. If you want to balance wild you would have to rework so many cards. Thats because it is impossible to balance wild. Meanwhile there are 4300+ Cards in Wild format. Even if they just focus on wild with double the team size they have now, they could not balance it. Wild is a unbalanced fun area where you can pull of crazy combos and try stupid stuff. But its far from being a competitive place.
Another point why there is no reason for blizzard to make huge wild changes is because it would mean tons of "free" dust for standard player that dont use wild cards at all.

AndreiRO posted a message on Wow... What an ugly metaPosted in: Wild FormatI don't think nerfing cards that are popular now will solve anything. You nerf them, other decks and strategies which are just as toxic will emerge after that.
I think what needs to change is the design view / the principles by which they print cards. I would like to see them addressing the stuff that is toxic for the game: mana cheating, disruption, cards that skip turns (time warp, ice block, cloak).

Dunyil0404 posted a message on Wow... What an ugly metaPosted in: Wild FormatHyper agro is an understatement.
Before I get trolled for 'meta-bashing' it's worth pointing out how horribly unbalanced wild has become. The prevalance of solitaire style decks and OP agro has made the format inhospitable.
I'm desperately waiting to see what the wild shake up that is coming in August will do, but am not holding up hopes.
In the meantime, here are my nerf recommendations:
Radiant Elemental (Spells cost (1) less, but not less than (1))
Gorloc Ravager (Battlecry: Add 3 random Murlocs to your hand)
Clownfish (Deathrattle: your next 2 Murlocs played costs (2) less)
Mechwarper (Battlecry: Your mechs cost (1) less this turn)
Illuminate Dredge. If it's a Holy spell, reduce it's cost by (3).
Palm Reading Discover a spell. Reduce the cost of a random spell in your hand by (1).
Swordfish Battlecry: Dredge. If it's a pirate, give that pirate and this weapons +1 attack (2 durability only).
Kabal Lackey Cost (2)
Chatty Bartender 4/2 stats.
Kabal Crystal Runner Cost (8)
Galvanizer Battlecry: Reduce the cost of a mech in your hand by (1).
I could go on...

Tobitubby posted a message on Patch 26.2 - Known Issues & Patch Notes - Macaw Temp Banned - Heroic Tavern Brawl Coming - Bug Fixes & MorePosted in: NewsCompared to the Scarlet Skin (which is to this day the ONLY female Death Knight Skin in the Game!), the skins look kinda meh. To me, they aren't special at all. Specially the Frost one, I can't stand dual weapons on Dks.. The only "special" thing is that 12w skin is the first skin that kinda represents the "Blood Specc" althought he doesn't look quite tanky lol. But there will probably be better Blood Skins in the Future:) I don't even know who this Sai guy is. Is he even in Warcraft or WoW? Never heard of him before.
To use FOMO for a skin on a time limited event only like 1% of the playerbase of all who attempt will achieve (I mean the 12 wins) is a new alltime low for Activision Blizzard. If you compare the investment and difficulty to actually get the skin, the skin is ugly af tbh.
Also I guess for many collectors and whales who want a "full collection", this Skin will be the "End of the Road" and they could loose intereset on a long term to invest into the game because of that. Because for many many player, the 12 wins will be unachievable. I think on a long term, giving out a hard to achieve fomo Skin is a big L for Activision.

Miniset gets announced Noon on May 24th then!

Z3Mo posted a message on Festival of Legends Final Reveal Stream! - All Cards Revealed, Launches April 11th!Posted in: NewsHere’s one easy thing to fix the Warrior weapon . Just make it a repeatable whirlwind effect like Bladestorm or Warpath. That way Warrior would now have an option to clear away Deathrattles + Reborn while also enabling self damage shenanigans with Anima Extractor, Armorsmith and Black Howl Gunspire

See you in chat boys. :D

Am I the only one who would have preferred to pay for a proper slice of solo content? The theme of this last expansion is perfect for another dungeon run type of storytelling. You could have been a freshman making your way through bullies, enchanted rooms, demon spawns, you name it. Something similar to the Dalaran heist, with the academy, split into different sections with challenges to overcome.
So much wasted potential if you ask me.
And regarding the hero portrait, the lack of a custom border just baffles me, and the hero power animation...they had a perfect one in the solo content, the Iceblast, it has the flavour and everything...and above all, the voice lines...you make a portrait, of a younger version of Jaina, and you keep the same adult/mature Jaina voice lines...how was this abomination greenlit?

It's been almost 2 years, sadly I haven't managed to get him the first time.
If you ask me, all these limited time hero skins should be available to purchase all the time, just like the first 3 were for a long time. Or at least have them go through a rotation, while also adding expansion preorder skins to the poll after their respective sets rotate out.
Thoughts?

I'd put money down on Lord Barov, Headmaster Kel'Thuzad,Lorekeeper Polkelt, Speaker Gidra, Ras Frostwhisper, Instructor Fireheart.

I can confirm that as of today it still doesn't sink, tried an updated version, then a clean install, same outcome.

Still a fun deck, it's main weaknesses are hyper-aggressive opponents and bad draw, otherwise, you're good to go.

Just matched against a guy in TB that got 5 Huffers out of his first 6 ACs played. Dude should buy a lottery ticket. Maybe even several. Had to put my phone down and step away from it before something questionable happened...I mean...IT'S A 1 OUT OF 3 EVERY TIME, HOW DO YOU GET HUFFER 5 OUT OF 6 TIMES?

What's with all these epics that don't belong in the epic slot? Seriously now, a 4 mana Darkbomb with the chance of getting a coin? In what world is that concept worth of the epic quality? FeelsbadRogue

It seems too convenient to me that ranked goes down right when the new wild brawl comes in...I mean it's been almost a full day and they still haven't fixed it, so meanwhile, if you want to play against random people, brawl is the way to go, and after the first run, you need to fork up some gold, or money. Tomorrow will come with some news, maybe regarding the next set, so a small hickup like this one looks like a great way of making people spend their gold so that they have to buy packs with real money when the new expansion arrives.

great concept, well thought out, gz for winning, maybe blizz will listen :D
