Hearthstone's iPad Beta Very Soon

Upon logging into Hearthstone today, a notification briefly popped up reminding players that there were 10 days remaining the the current ranked play season. This season, test season 4, was previously datamined to be declared internally as the pre iPad Release season. What comes after the pre-release? The Release! 

In the past week, Blizzard has been shown off the iPad client to some media outlets, and made an announcement about it being fully playable at the Blizzard booth at PAX East.

Given all this information, we should be seeing the iPad beta starting up between now and PAX East, or as Natryndon put it, Soon =)

 Deck Spotlight: Artosis' IEM Katowice Shaman Deck

In tonight's deck spotlight, we're going to be taking a look at Artosis' Shaman deck from IEM Katowice. Artosis' deck is a Midrange style Shaman deck focusing on keeping your opponents minions off the board with cards like Hex and Lightning Storm so you can bring out a your 5 and 6 drops like Fire Elemental and Argent Commander to melt face with a Windfury. If possible. drop Rockbiter Weapon on something with Windfury to ruin your opponent's game.

This deck excels at dealing with aggro decks, so if you find yourself in trouble on the ladder with aggro decks, you may want to try this deck out.
