• [Hearthstone] Updated Theft Accusation’s effect timing to match the text of the card (“after” instead of “whenever”).
• [Hearthstone] Fixed a bug where Theotar, the Mad Duke would cause crashes if the card swapped was a “Choose One” card.
• [Hearthstone] Fixed a bug where Parrrley would not enter the opponent’s deck if the card swapped was a hero card.
Mirror Shield was a strong quest reward for murlocs, far from broken though.
Almost always suffered to the claws of mechs or talons of dragons in doing so.
Yes, we know you have no idea how to balance Battlegrounds. Just remove these Quests from the game, admit you screwed this up and refund to people their money. I already deleted this clown fiesta and not planning to come back. Just give me my money back.
What money? Ur 10$? Its not how this world works, allianz wont gimme back my 4k euro what i paid for nothing and u wait ur money for a game where u played? Tell me more...
Doesn't matter. It wasn't even worth a penny.
Tldr;
• Mirror Shield is now banned in Murloc lobbies.
Nah, the Theotar fix is pretty significant.
Who could have seen divine shield poisonous murlocs being strong? Seriously though, how is this still the strongest build for murlocs, the only thing that has changed is how it’s achieved, mirror shield or gentle megasaur. For all the improvements and changes battlegrounds has, sometimes we are playing beta launch BG.
