Strategy: You finish the game with Animated Broomstick into Chef Nomi, killing Broom off against the opponent minions and playing Mindrender Illucia. You use your removals earlier so your opponent has no way to clear your board.

And if you suspect that your opponent will have a big board, you can also set up Imprisoned Vilefiend 2 turns earlier and when it wakes up play Nomi, kill off Vilefiend into something, play Wave of Apathy and then Mindrender Illucia with no other removals in your hand.

Swapping hands means that you take board clears from your opponent and they face a board of 6/6’s.

I’m not sure if Metamorphosis is worth a slot in aggressive build after the nerfs. You’re free to test it out, but I feel like it won’t be an upgrade.

I mean, you can technically still win some games, but if you don’t want to waste your time you can probably just concede. That’s the biggest downside of this deck.

The idea behind the deck is that you play only 3 spells, so Tortollan is guaranteed to offer you Potion of Illusion, which then gives you a 1 mana copy of Tortollan. Then you play a bunch of Battlecry minions and keep getting more copies with ‘infinite’ Potions of Illusion.

You can do it yourself 🙂

Oh wow, that’s some sportsmanship!

I think that’s more of a general card game thing – every time you add a card to your deck, you obviously need to shuffle the entire deck, because otherwise you would know where the card is. In Hearthstone it’s different, because it’s done automatically and you never know where the game puts it, but I guess they kept it to feel more “real” (for physical card gamers it honestly feels pretty natural to shuffle deck all the time, lol).

It was confirmed a long time ago, but in the past it was never really an issue. Only recently we’ve started getting effects that place the cards in a certain order – like Sightless Watcher in Ashes of Outland (the card you put on top would be gone if you shuffled something else to your deck) or Polkelt and Sphere of Sapience this time around. I hope that they end up adding more similar effects in the future too.

And I actually quite like it – it gives those effects some sort of counter. Your opponent can also shuffle cards into your deck to randomize it again after you play Polkelt, for example.

DH is doing okay, it just doesn’t dominate the meta like some people have predicted. We’ll see in a couple of days, I’m pretty sure that Aggro/Tempo DH will be viable, but I don’t think that other archetypes like Control will be a thing for now.

Honestly, so far not so much. It’s actually okay, just not great. But things will 100% chance during the next few days, meta is always super chaotic at launch.

You mean on mobile? Sorry about that. We’re currently testing it and will try to make it as least invasive as possible 🙁

It’s a bit hard to find the right balance when it comes to ads. If you don’t make them “annoying” enough then they don’t pay almost anything, and if you do make them too annoying then people get sick of them and start using another site. That’s why our devs have been experimenting with different ad styles over the last year or so.

I think so, they didn’t rotate it, they just added a new set, so there was no reason to reset the current decks.

You do have a point, it might be a bit better in Dragon Ramp Druid than I thought, but I still think that I’d rather play other cards in that deck 🙂

I don’t think you want to put it in Ramp deck. Your main weakness as a Ramp deck are Aggro decks that take advantage of you first few turns where you just ramp and do nothing else. So you’d rather play a defensive minion (like Evasive Drakonid) and not a sticky threat (which is good vs Control, and Control matchups are already in your favor in general).

As for the Ysera part – yes, but I rate cards based on how good they are when you put them into your deck, not when you get them randomly. Although I should have mentioned Ysera and other Dragon generators like Dragonqueen Alexstrasza!

Really? Do you have any source on that?

Me too, it should always be a thing 🙂 It would also encourage people to play more during the last season, which is not a bad deal for Blizzard.

What’s wrong with having Aggro decks in the meta?

Like, I get it if someone prefers Control, but a super slow meta when every match lasts for 30+ minutes would be super annoying. Aggro keeps Control in check so they can’t get too greedy. Having some representation of every general archetype (Aggro, Midrange, Control, Combo) is always most healthy.

Poland (I’m not a native English speaker), but I don’t think that Australia is that much further away from California, hahah.

Yes, but on the other hand, you finish your Quest a lot faster so you can start digging for 0 mana cards quicker. Is it worth the possible dead draws from HP in the late game? We won’t know until we try 🙂

If you’re serious, then you should definitely apply. I don’t know if they’re hiring for any of those positions right now, but they definitely will at one point.

And yeah, I was thinking about applying a few times myself (for the designer position), but I live on the other side of the globe 🙁

Definitely, and let’s hope that trend continues 🙂
