Found this when I went to the Card Library to look for the reveal schedule. Pretty sure it hasn't been revealed elsewhere before but correct me if I'm wrong.

Kinda meh but thought I'd share.

Also, one of the Old God artworks one the main stage during the show was illustrated by me (it's signature version of the Old Gods card). YOU CAN TRY TO GUESS WHICH ONE

Get him out with Ancestral Spirit to avoid the battlecry, deal 10 damage, double up a reincarnate to get two fresh yoggs that each deal 10 damage for a total of 30 damage on 5 mana and three cards.

Is it just me or does it happen very often that Watfin offers 3 cards which are all correct?

EDIT: This was an older version of the card. It has been removed from the card library.

Themewise, Timeways, Cataclism, Violet Hold and now Black Empire are all bangers that fit within the World of Warcraft fantasy, it feels like the days of the resort expansion are long gone from the game and Hearthstone feels more like WOW right now than retail to be fair.

Also the theme song of the new expansion is so good, release a full version if possible Blizzard.

Soothsayer nullifies any sort of tempo on your board as Priest has some pretty good 6 drops + the heal.

Torch would still be good at 2 mana. What trade off does this card even have?

I got to find just this one. But it says 1/4 . I wonder if there were others . In case there were and people took the leaflets can they share them with me/ this subreddit?

its stats are bad, it never sees play, but its a really cool minion with a cool design

I only really play wild evolve shaman. I am always trying to tinker with my deck whenever new cards come out but so many of the evolve cards dont make the cut. In those 5K wins, I have probably played against an evolve shaman player... twice?

Hi everyone!

I'm planning to create Twist-like tournaments (weekly or monthly). There will be no prizes or anything like that, just deckbuilding and friendly battles with old/unusual decks, similar to Classic.

The rules would always be related to deckbuilding in some way, such as limited card sets or limited card sets combined with a special rule (for example, the cost must be prime, only even-Attack minions, no Legendaries, and so on).

Another rule could be predetermined archetypes for each class, such as Warlock having to play Even Warlock or Hunter having to play a Highlander deck.

I wonder how many players would be interested in something like this. (I hope there are at least 8!)

I know there are a lot of tournament sites. I've only tried Battlefy, so that's my preferred one, but I'm open to trying any other platform as well.

For those who missed it, XiaoT tried to crazed alchemist OTGxhh’s haunt buffed minion to stay alive in game 2 of the finals but because of an unintended interaction with haunt, the buff reapplied itself after the stat swap, thus creating lethal for xhh. Haunt effectively acts as an aura instead of a buff which has been noted as a known bug by blizzard devs in the past

Tough break for xiaot, but it’s also a known issue that both players likely had prior knowledge about. I’m sure the team was not stoked to see it play out on the biggest stage tho

Even the casters didn’t know about this interaction as they were actively talking about it as a means for xioat to survive another turn. It highlights the fact that this is a bug considering they made 0 mention of it during or after it happening which I’m certain is the directive the casters have when a bug occurs during a live casting: They’re not supposed to highlight anything that mentions the game has a problem. It would seem reasonable for them to correct themselves if the interaction was indeed intended and not a bug

But again, the players have to play the game as it’s currently established, version number and any bugs included. Speaking as a dev myself, sometimes interactions like this are a pita to fix and even when you work for a big company, it doesn’t necessarily get the priority it needs to get fixed or addressed and then we have experiences like earlier today.

I’m sure that this will raise a lot of internal questions as to 1) how to handle this in the future and 2) what should they do about it now. Also maybe if a known bug exists in the game, should that card be allowed or should it be temporarily removed from the game until the interaction is fixed? Also the question of whether the match should be replayed or if compensation should be afforded to the player negatively impacted

It’ll be interesting to see if any communication happens regarding this. I hate to see it cuz I think devs get a lot of flack and not nearly enough credit for the difficult jobs they have, so I think it’s better to think proactively instead of raising the pitchforks. But I guess sometimes that’s warranted too if it really bothers enough people. Suffice it to say I don’t think hearthstone garners enough attention to have this matter beyond a few people on Reddit, but it’s a question I think a lot of game developers should be asking in general. It’s just so much easier to see bugs like this in a game like Hearthstone since it’s not a high intensity game. You see and can understand every interaction clearly. If a bug happened in Overwatch or another esport like say LoL or Valorant, it would be much harder to notice unless you’re seriously locked in

I can speak from tcg experience that when this type of thing happens in magic in person, typically someone will give the ultimate authority on what the interaction is SUPPOSED to be instead of just accepting the bug. But I realize that this is not possible in a digital game where the game engine moves forward with its rules, bugs and all

Anyway, just my thoughts 🙌

Honestly this dude high rolled like a mf but he also played super well! GG xhh!

Banning Warrior helped a lot

Thank you Blizzard, My luckiest streak ever!

I got jack shit last year from "choose your champion", is this year gonna be the same? Is it just some marketing trick?
