The best change by far is that non-eligible decks are grayed out.

Control warlock with Jaraxxus is really strong. Also small spell mage with arcane(?) giants and conjurer's calling.

First time I don't preorder. I have 15k gold and about the same dust so I'll see how it goes. I might get the pass though.

My impressions so far: Hero power mage (7-0): My most successful deck so far. It is basically tempo with as many ways to discover wildfire as possible. Elemental shaman: (2-1): If It draws well it can stay on the board and threaten with windfury, but if it doesn't then it is very underwhelming. Secret/tempo rogue(2-1): Meh. Same old stuff. Nature/taunt druid: (6-2): Surprisingly doing pretty well. It can win with big dudes, geryboughception or with a Yogg as a last resort. Sacrifice zoo-ish lock: (2-4): I had high expectations for this one but it always seems to fall short, maybe I just had a few bad games or need to go more aggro. Spell priest (1-1): Haven't played it too much to form an opinion.

Scrub-Niggurath posted:I’ll give blizz the benefit of the doubt on mage since it’s a combination multiple reasons that spell mage is so good right now (small spell pool from Core rotation, very little aggro due to watchposts, etc.) but Paladins have just been getting crazy strong cards and synergies multiple expansions in a row and it’s just cumulated in a deck where almost every single card is standalone nuts good and I have no idea how they thought any other classes would be able to stand up to them Paladin had one of the worst basic/classic sets so it is no surprise that everything suddenly got out of hand with the core set. In the long run this is probably a good thing because they won't have to print OP cards for paladin (and other classes) to keep them afloat.

Lmao, just lost a game on a ~0.02% chance. My opponent had a 2/1 and a DS 8/1. I needed Eye of Cthun to hit the divine shield at least once and it didn't. Chernabog fucked around with this message at 03:27 on Apr 10, 2021 |

Jeza posted:If the occasional roping and emoting player didn't exist, you'd never experience the greatest feeling in Hearthstone where you're on the verge of losing but topdeck perfect counterlethal and you sit out until the last second of the rope while they smugly emote, thinking you're just salty and spite roping, only to crush their dreams at the last possible moment. That has literally never happened to me since beta.

I pretty much never accept/send friend requests unless they had a fun deck or it was a crazy match. Only one time it was somebody salty that I didn't "let" them complete their combo when I was playing some homebrew combo garbage myself.

Jolly Jumbuck posted:I had all the original classic legendaries plus Sylvanas and Velen when he moved to Wild. I did not have one though... Ragnaros. However, for some reason, it said I had all the classic legendaries though and gave me a Diamon Ragnaros. Sweet. Did they not count Rag/Sylvanas/Velen in that? Not that I'm complaining. I don't know but I disenchanted Edwin when he got nerfed and I still got diamond Ragnaros.

The reason you want Neru is because you need a win condition and there is always a risk of burning one or more of them.

Just lost a 75%/10%/15% match. Followed by a 36/30/34. Then a 60/18/22. And finally died on a 91/4/5 with 1% lethal. Clearly I shouldn't be playing battlegrounds.

Amaggan probably needs to be a 6*. And they could nerf the stats and gem frequency of the 9/6 and make it a 5*

Flavor is mostly in the metagame anyway: art, flavor text (duh) and card names or themes. If you can have some of it in mechanics that's great but it should never come before balance. While number adjustments might be "lazy" they tend to be the most elegant solutions. As a game designer myself I often see suggestions that would be overtly complicated, clutter the cards with text or swing the balance in the opposite direction. Sometimes they wouldn't even be feasible. The upcoming Mutanus is a good example. The mechanic itself is very flavorful and the "eat a minion" is self explanatory even though it is not a keyword or existing mechanic. If for some reason it turned out to be OP it would be easier to increase its cost rather than changing it to something entirely different or adding unnecessary conditions.

Right, forgot about that card. But the point still stands regarding the flavor and mechanic.

AnacondaHL posted:Mostly, but there is some overlap with game mechanics. Like even defining what makes a card "feel" like a Hunter card vs Druid card vs etc. is flavor that will always overlap with game mechanics. quote:Changing the mana cost of N'Zoth is literally the exact opposite of elegant. It was a brute force hamfisted fix. Pure functionality at the cost of style. For game designers, it was the easy fix. It's a fix I would have implemented myself if left to my own selfish devices, because I am not a game developer I am a competitive player and honestly I care so little about game flavor and I just want a functional in-game experience for competitive play. So it's I think this really depends on what your goal is and who you ask. For me game design is always king with very few exceptions so in this case it works as intended (as a buff) and remains as almost the exact same card so it is good. Then you have other times when they try to maintain the "soul of the card" and end up with a meme such as Warsong commander. Another thing worth noting is that maybe something such as "giving all summoned minions rush" may sound simple but at a company like Blizzard it probably needs to go through a bunch of people and requires more work and coordination. Not only that, but it could even become a problem if it later turns out to be OP, like if there was an unintended OTK in there. The joke is that Blizzard is a "small indie company" but it might actually be easier for an indie to just change it quickly and see how it works out. With something like crabrider you don't have that problem, first because it is a nerf so at worst it just ends up being bad, and second because it is a simpler effect which is much easier to anticipate.

that I'm the one that has to defend this position, because I can at least recognize that certain things should be done to keep the game healthy and at the very least can empathize with the game dev position.
