The Secret Achievements of HearthPwn
So we have this awesome thing called the achievements system on HearthPwn. There have been a lot of inquiring minds to see if I would reveal all the secret achievements the site has before the shutdown.
Hell yeah, let's do it. If you go any further in this post, there are spoilers.
How Many Secrets?
Forty. There were forty secret achievements I created on HearthPwn (with some help from the kick-ass mod team) that were available for earning. The best part about secret achievements was coming up with the names. There were tons of references to help you figure out what you needed to do but unfortunately, not everyone was able to figure them all out but it was fun to send people on the hunt.
I do regret some of the references being very easy to not understand due to when you tried to go after the achievement, but in a way that made it more fun since you had to go on a proper search. Something like Nice Meme where you needed to create a deck with Ticking Abomination in it is tough to figure out unless you were around when the card was revealed. For those not in the know, Blizzard revealed Ticking Abomination after we were left in silence for just over two weeks since Frozen Throne has been announced. That is the card we were greeted with. The anger was insane!
That's Just Crazy
Although this has been spoiled in the past by some people, that's just crazy is indeed the craziest secret achievement HearthPwn had. As of writing only 221 community members earned the achievement!
What was the criteria you ask? Well, that's a secret! Okay, fine.
Visit the website every single day for an entire year. Yup, many of those who guessed the criteria for it were correct this whole time. The hardest part about it was being consistent in your arrivals. Due to the site being hosted in the Central American timezone, it was quite possible for you to technically visit the site on two different days in your country but really, we saw it as visits on the same day here. I don't believe the tracking was ever perfect but I am proud of being the first person to obtain the achievement and for Arthas, my bot, being one of the last.
More Crazy Secret Achievements
While we're talking about achievements that weren't earned by many, these are the top five rarest secret achievements outside of That's Just Crazy.
- [300] Now That's a Mad Lad - Visit Mad Hatter's card page.
- [378] Kira's Guardian - Create a deck using Bwonsamdi, the Dead.
- One of my favourite references since it is from Death Note, an anime favourite.
- Kira (killer) is the name given to Light Yagami by his followers. The Guardian of Kira is a shinigami (god of death) named Ryuk, which is a character Bwonsamdi in WoW really takes after.
- [565] HOWDY! - Visit Annoy-o-Tron's incredibly annoying brother's card page.
- The sound effect made by Annoy-o-Module
- [664] Death Note - Visit Bwonsamdi, the Dead's Card Page.
- So close to 666! Kira's Guardian explains this one.
- [677] That Incident - Create a deck using Hakkar, the Soulflayer.
- Reference to the Corrupted Blood incident.

If you want to stay together with all of us orphans of the HearthPwn community, myself and our wonderful site staff have started up a new project over at OutOf.Cards. We encourage you to come see your old friends from HearthPwn over there - the goal is to support all the features HearthPwn had and do even more!
Just 155 to go... Would love to finish this one, any help is very much apreciated :)
Edit: Woah shit bois, getting pretty close here
Make that 141.
Haha I was really surprised on the day which gave me the „That‘s crazy achievement“ telling me that I was visiting the site for 365 days in a row... 😳🤪🧐🤓
So I made it to the 221 club 🍾
Who cares shitstone sucks anyway
What I like is that the spoilers don't really make Team 5 much easier to get. I mean, even the search won't turn up Rachelle Davis
in anticipation of the release site outof.cards
legacy must live! :Kappa:
Only 9 earned it?! And 2 of them are moderators ; that is one highly select club
When trying to look at my trophies, it reads
<header class="h2 no-sub no-nav">Can this please be fixed? Want to know how many I got :)
</header>You cant actually view your profile until you change your name. You still have the "assigned" one from the failed move to Fandom (GDPR issues for users from EU).
Make a request for a name change here so we can change it for you and then you will be able to view your achievements, among other things ;-)
Nice, thank you !
And damn, there’s some sort of melancholy hidden in this post.
Will there eventually be achievements on outof.cards or are they secretly already there?
They will be a thing in the future and the goal is to make even better achievements =)
Been trying for that's just crazy for what seems like longer then needed for the achievement I have my browser set to open the page daily and I visit regularly, maybe I will hit it before the 28th?, thanks Flux for the reveals, you should be commended for all your efforts along with all the Hearthpwn staff, I will miss this site very much.
thanks for the awesome site you guys have made, you guys will be missed until out.of cards :)
Cant you guys make/remake the site more or less the same to keep originality :)
anyways thanks again for the memories (its your guys fault i dont work at work half the time) ;)
Yea I vote for something that looks similare - I like the way the most resent comments on posts are at the top - I always check posts there, but I will be happy just to have another site for news regarding Hearthstone.
After the site closes, will it still be possible to release achievements?
I got the visit every day achievement without even trying. I don't know if I should feel proud of that, or if I am maybe just addicted to this site.
*edit* nevermind I was mistaken, I have the 100 days one, but not an entire year.
I am gonna miss this site! always had guides news for hearthstone before anyone else! every morning i log in the site to read the news and now it is closing... we will miss you!
The most rare golden achievement.
