I think it might be related to cards like “Divergence”.
Whenever you split a card in two, it’ll also activate shatter.

I’m pretty sure they want to tone down the overall power level, hence no more buffs for the quests.
It isn’t good to do that in the middle of the year, instead of at the end, while waiting for the rotation to bring the power level further down, especially because this feels like giving up on the current expansion.

At this point, we can assume they have given up on their latest expansion.

I like how low effort the Mecha’thun skin is.
It still has its fleshy tentacles instead of the mechanical ones (though maybe that’s just an error in the shop display (I doubt it)).

Now we’ll just wait for the next round of Quest buffs, and things might finally look a bit more interesting.

I want everything but the golden pack, diamond card, and the pet.
And I fully agree, let us buy what we want directly, and don’t force us into gacha.

Surely Draenei are next.
The only class card background currently not used in BG is from Priest, and I’m sure Draenei would get the Priest coloured background.

Everything about that doesn’t want me to play more arena.
I barely play Arena, mostly right after a new expansion launched.
The fact that they think it’s a good idea to continue and lock a skin behind high wins is already a huge mistake.
Not like this was heavily criticized when they tried this shit the first time with the Crimson Sai DK skin for a Heroic Tavern Brawl.
Removal of gold in regular arena is also bad, not to mention this Legendary groups reminding me of the dungeon run/duels nightmare.

I’m not sure how arena mains will value this overhaul, but for me most of it looks bad.

His first and only appearance was back in late 2021.
Afaik he didn’t receive a rerun yet.

I don’t know, but the text on the card and in the article revealing the card indicate that subsequent spores will summon the first 5 drops.
Which makes it RNG-dependent, whether it will be good or bad.

Holy moly, the mayor of Value Town!!!!

Now I’m curious if they intend for this Signature Spell bundle to replace the regular way via in-game events to usually get non-legendary Signature cards from the latest expansion.
Not to mention the atrocious price attached to this one.

I’m personally hoping many of these dynamic cosmetics are available with gold.
My main concern is the UI and how they keep it clean, readable, and not cluttered by fancy board/hero interactions and animations.

Oh boy, one week certainly is two weeks too long.

I just wanted to mention, that the final puzzle of the new Mysteries card back has been solved.

A new/free Thunder King skin is also available from the in-game event starting next week.
In addition, Rabbit Faelin and Squirrel Alleria are also new constructed skins (though purchase seems to start next week).

I was surprised how they tried to sneak such a hefty change into a single line at the end of the patch notes.
They could have listed the quests before and after, but likely knew this would backfire, so better hide it.
I play a lot, but this change is such a slap in the face for everyone, they better revert most of it ASAP again.

They could also bring back Jepetto Joybuzz or Dollmaster Dorian, though the latter is too dark for the theme.
My first thought about the “M” was Gelbin Mekkatorque.

It seems they put the Scarlet Sally bundle out a week too early.
It’s been removed already again.

Corpse Bride wasn’t buffed from spending 8 corpses to 10 corpses though.
Corpse Bride was sitting on the 10 corpses from the beginning, they just made a mistake by saying she was at 8.
The only real change is the taunt on the groom and some changed wording.
