I’m not sure if I understand the question. You mean that if you play a Golden Baku/Genn in your deck, is your Hero Golden? Then the answer is no.

It’s always sad to see your cards go, but it’s for the best. Without rotations, either they would need to increase the power level of new cards all the time to make them relevant, or meta would stay roughly the same after a while.

And Wild is more fun than you might think, for some reason a lot of new players are scared of that format, and that’s wrong! Yes, it’s more expensive to get into if you don’t own any cards, but if you’ve been playing the game for 2 years, building a deck or two shouldn’t be that hard. And your decks stay relevant for longer there. E.g. I’ve been playing a Reno Warlock deck for the last 2 years in Wild, and while it has changed a bit, it wasn’t much. After building a few decks I could easily maintain them without spending any money on the game.

Thanks, fixed! Sometimes it’s hard to remember 🙂

It’s better to buy packs if you want full value. But buying solo content gives you… hours of fun with solo content if that’s your thing.

But if you’re spending real money, it’s worth it. 15 packs cost $19.99 anyway.

Good to know, I was wondering why did you put them 😀 But thanks a lot!

I was really busy over the weekend, but I finally found some time to update it. It’s now displayed just like the previous expansions were (sorted by class with latest on the top) 🙂

We don’t know that yet, but probably soon. My guess would be reveal stream next either upcoming Friday (22nd) or Monday (25th) and then reveal season right after until April 7th.

Yeah, but those aren’t the expansion card packs, those are from the “goodbye to year of the mammoth” event or something (and we’ve covered that in another post). But they are always giving out some free packs at the start of expansion, so it would be weird if they didn’t.

We have some caching issues. Sometimes the old version saves and it takes a while for it to update. Sorry!

Jasper* a typo. I’ve been writing too much about Hunter Spellstone lately, and both are green, lol. Fixed it.

I didn’t notice that, but still, winning 4 games in high Legend in a row means that the deck at least somewhat works and is not completely unplayable.

Sample sizes in high Legend are often pretty small. If someone plays 10 games and not 4 you could still say that he just got lucky. But that’s just part of HS.

I’d let it stay, because it’s still a fun deck. Let people decide for themselves if they want to play it (and I doubt that anyone will commit with serious crafting that early before rotation).

“The “Thrill of Victory” card back will be issued to eligible Blizzard Battle.net accounts within 30 working days after the HCT 2019 World Championship event. Card backs must be claimed onsite and will be delivered to the associated Battle.net account of each eligible ticket.”

From the post.

I did edit the passage at the top, because I was just summarizing. I didn’t think that people will go ahead and buy tickets without a way to participate. But I’m pretty sure that you should still be able to refund it.

While it was not officially said anywhere, I believe that we should. It would be really weird if we didn’t.

Sorry, fixed the typo!

You can find most of the HQ art from announcements in Press section on the official Blizz site: https://blizzard.gamespress.com/Hearthstone

Yes, we can.

Thanks, fixed!

Sorry, you’re right about that, fixed!

April 9 is before April 30th. They have to account for potential delays when selling you something.

Actually, all of those characters (except Dr. Boom) are HS originals! Dr. Boom also doesn’t have much of a backstory in WoW, you just had to kill him for one Quest (and since you had to use Bombs to do it, he was immune to normal attacks, and people used to train weapon skills on him, but that was a long time ago). Fortune Teller is a new character, she was only used in Whispers of the Old Gods trailer before. Rafaam is from League of Explorers, Togwaggle is from Kobolds & Catacombs, Hagatha is from The Witchwood and Dr. Boom is from Boomsday Project (you could say Goblins vs Gnomes, but the actual character development happened in Boomsday). They don’t have A LOT of backstory yet.

Most of the HS story is told through PvE content, hints dropped here and there, as well as the pre-expansion lore posts/videos.

Come to think about it, we might do a lore overview for the new expansion when it’s officially announced, detailing who those villains are exactly 🙂
