The obvious fact that this card is tradeable makes it better than one might think.

Haha, let’s build a less-good-but-way-more-fun version of Odd Paladin!

This card could be the incentive to play spells like Chaos Nova – a board control DH with spell based card draw and face damage mixed in, and Jace for the final blow.

Seems worth a try. 😉

Maybe this is obvious, but with enough mana, you can repeat ‘the first’ battlecry X times, right?

So with let’s say 7 mana, you play him, Promordial Dungeoneer (draw 4), Cagematch Custodian (draw 2 and a weapon)!?

How did you think it worked, then? 😉

Do we already know what the ‘increase’ is?

Well, the way Hearthstone is designed favors Aggro and Combo decks. There where times when control or midrange decks were on top of the meta, but those times are rare. 😉

I might seem overly pessimistic (and I still like Quests (Lines) – new and – old – very much) but I honestly believe that all the Quest Lines will be way to slow to be viable in ‘competitive’ HS play.

Slay the Hearthstone. Mark my words.

I just hope the rest of the world will be able to preregister, too. Because I want those shiny Mercenaries!

Yeah it kinda was a kill, you’re right. 😉

Ah the good old card kill nerfs. Didn’t see those for quite some time.

I could swear it was 1.800 EXP … hmm

8.4 … o.0

I don’t know any of those players. Seems like the Arena community is … well … somewhat separate from the other game modes. 😉

I can’t even remember playing that solo content. Wasn’t that good then, I guess. 😉

Thanks for clarifying!

My background is paper cards (MtG, who would’ve guessed 😉 ) and I’m pretty sure that every expansion, only a handful of cards see competitive play. On the other hand, there are WAY MORE cards in MtG than in HS, so competition is fierce. 😉

Maybe that’s a dumb question but why is the Warlock questline a direct counter to Tickatus? Okay, when you fatigue your opponent and he then ‘draws’, you get the damage, but don’t you think that Tickatus’ disruption is enough to kill the opponent before he has the time to finish the questline?

I don’t exactly understand this line: ‘…that need to be cast in groups of three’.

I’m pretty sure I don’t need to cast them in groups … I should be even allowed to cast 3 Fire spells in a row and then a Frost and an Arcane spell (even across multiple turns) to comlete one stage of the questline.

Could you please explain what you mean with that sentence?

And although the rewards are mighty, I have a bad feeling that those questlines are way to slow to finish in a normal game of Hearthstone. 🙁

Yeah actually read it in the apropriate post on this site. 😉

But there is a new Rexxar (which also happens to be ‘fiery’, just as the one already existing).

Are we talking about that game mode still in BETA status? 😉

Besides that, while I’m no fan of copying, I hope that Mercenaries will be an excellent copy of Slay the Spire. 🙂

In my oppinion, for an ‘expansion’ like Core Set, 28% (almost a third) is a very good number. Actually, it would be a good number for any expansion any collectible card game could have. But this is just my personal feeling and I could be wrong. 😉
