Well Kripp was fun at times actually. But yeah, he was pretty clear about not being very enthusiastic about the show. I guess he got used to getting money for everything he does nowadays....
What Blizzard doesn't seem to understand is that, when a player loses against cards he doesn't have, he sees the game as pay to win. Whenever you feel like you need to spend money to be competitive, it becomes a pay to win game. Which Hearthstone IS indeed to a certain degree. Sure, you can get to the pay to win level without spending money but you needs months of gold grinding and lots of luck in pack opening. So, if we were to consider Completely Free games those that only have vanity items for sale, Hearthstone is definitely not among them. I wish people wake up one day and realize that Hearthstone is not really free to play. Maybe Blizzard will then adjust the business model for Hearthstone. Right now, no one is complaining so they take advantage.
Dear Blizzard. Can you make this game cheaper? Currently, to get all the new cards of an expansion, it requires hundreds of dollars. That is, an insult to the minimum wage working community. I can only afford about 10 dollars a month for the game. So that's about 80 dollars for the full expansion (considering the 8 months between expansions, I get the adventures with gold usually). Can you please bring the game's cost somewhere closer to that?
It seems to me like the broken card there isn't the Dirty Rat. It's Emperor Thaurissan. As it has always been broken in combo decks. Cards were balanced around their mana cost and the possible combos due to that mana cost. The fact that emperor enables a lot more of the combo cards to be played together, THERE'S the problem. We've seen it be broken in Freeze mage, in Worgen OTK, and now with Brann, Dirty Rat, etc. If they should nerf anything, it's Emperor Thaurissan.
Well the actual disappointment was in the class card mostly. I don't mind the new card, but why then must Force of Nature be so bad? I mean, you could argue that Force of Nature is a druid card so it it good in that class. But now, if I ever want to play Force of Nature, I just play Doppelgangster instead. Buff Force of Nature or replace it completely.
I completely agree to this. I am always triggered by the lack of game mechanics transparency from a game. Including chances of mechanics like opening a pack.

I'm pretty sure it has been oficcially answered they do not count as minions, but they do take up a minion space on the board.

I mostly agree with your statement. This was mostly my point also. The game is not rewarding enough.
