I’ll be live blogging the exciting new announcement of the upcoming Adventure right here! The event starts at 11pm PDT and can be viewed at the official Hearthstone Twitch channel. There’s been a couple of teasers leading up to the event first, we got the announcement via e-mail, then we’ve been getting well-known card characters dressed up in party garb. All signs have pointed to the WoW Raid Karazhan being the likely subject of the new Adventure. The big question will be how fast can we expect this new Adventure to launch? We’ve seen launches of new content take a long time, but we’ve also seen something like League of Explorers launched a week after it was announced. Most of these questions will be answered soon, so stay tuned!

Can’t wait for the expansion that kills agro decks and leaves us only with mid range and control decks.
Aggro decks will never die, and honestly, an all control meta would be boring. I personally dont like playing against aggro all the time, but aggro decks help keep the game a bit exciting. This current meta is a lot slower than past metas and this meta is very tempo and midrange based. The only really aggro deck is zoolock, but even that is technically a tempo deck.
a 1-cost minion with 2/2. This reminds me of Yu-Gi-Oh where the cards get better with every expansion…
It is called “power creep” and most gamea have it. However, this is not power creep since it is a 2/2 vanilla and only for Druid. It gets the extra 1 health for being vanilla. If it were a 2/3 vanilla, that would be power creep because it would be as strong as a 2 cost vanilla. Compare this to other 1 costs. Fiery Bat is essentially a 3/1, Possessed Villager and Argent Squire are 1/2s but take 2 hits to kill and there are other examples, but I dont really feel like listing everything.
