(Update: Patch Notes & Patch on Friday) Patch Notes For The Upcoming Balance Update Aren't Coming For At Least A Couple of Days
Can’t they wait till I hit legend with skelly mage first? Nerf it next week! ????
How Pay-to-Win Is Hearthstone Battlegrounds Now? The Past and Future of BG Monetization
Sad times for the BGs players. Loved the article, though! I truly hope the backlash is enough to make them rethink locking the additional heroes behind a paywall.
Big Hearthstone Battlegrounds Update - Seasons, Rewards Track, XP System, Quests, 4 Hero Choices Only For Real Money - Launches August 30
It took them 3 years but they finally figured out how to force players to pay real money in order to have the same chances for success with everybody else (two additional heroes). Nice job, blizzard…
(Live Now) 24.0.3 Hearthstone Patch Notes - 5 Nerfs & 22 Buffs in Constructed, Battlegrounds Balance Changes, Duels Updates
Kael’thas? Denathrius? Impending catastrophe? Guff? None of these got nerfed and at the same time, they decided to buff rogue’s card draw ability? What were they thinking?
Jon "Orange" Westberg Was Suspended From Competitive Play
I understand the last part and it makes a lot of sense (suspension part). I guess what puzzles me the most is the timing, since we’re talking about a case that took place almost 3 years ago and it’s not like Orange got away with it or something. Why now? Did someone tip them off or did they already know about it and decided to pull the trigger on a specific time, e.g. a few days after his tournament?
Jon "Orange" Westberg Was Suspended From Competitive Play
I’ve been struggling to understand a few things about this story. Orange committed a crime (S.A.) four years ago. He was convicted by a court of law 3 years ago. Blizzard finds out now and suspends him from competitive play. Question 1: Was Orange supposed to go public with this in the first place? Q.2: Was the victim also from the HS or other e-sports competitive scene? Q.3: How did Blizzard find out and who leaked the trial documents? Q.4: Is every streamer all of a sudden some kind of role model or influencer and therefore can do no wrong?
21.2 Patch Notes - Nerfs to Stealer of Souls & Flesh Giant, Battlegrounds Revamp, Mercenaries Pre-Purchase, Book of Mercenaries Tamsin
Omg, these guys are muppets! I was being ironic when I replied to Dean about nerfing stealer to 5 mana and they literally nerfed it one mana more. It’s the QUEST you buffoons, the problem is the QUEST!!! You can’t have fatique as a wincon!!!
21.0.3 Balance Update - Eight Constructed Card Nerfs + Five Battlegrounds Hero Buffs - Coming Tomorrow (August 17)

You do realize that there are two questline warlock archetypes dominating the meta at high legend, right?
21.0.3 Balance Update - Eight Constructed Card Nerfs + Five Battlegrounds Hero Buffs - Coming Tomorrow (August 17)
This is a joke, right? It has to be, but it’s not even a good one. Btw, Stealer of souls (you know, the card that was banned in wild) must be laughing his a$$ off while looking at these “nerfs”. Honestly, those guys will never learn!
Wailing Caverns Hearthstone Mini-Set Guide - Cards, Release Date, Price, How To Get It
So far, so… bad. Even though it’s early to tell, I don’t see any cards/tools to disrupt Uther’s ladder domination.
How Much Does A Full Hearthstone Expansion Cost (In Your Time Or Money)?
Let me get that right because I’m a F2P player too. Let’s say you collect 100 gold per day (60 g. from quests on average and 40 g. from 12 wins) because you play 60-90 mins per day. That means 1 pack per day or 30 packs per month or 120 packs during the four month period between expansions. How on earth did you manage to collect 30.000 g. to open 300 packs??????
Big Changes To "Battle Pass" Progression System Announced - ~20% Lower XP Requirements For Levels 1-50, Quest Changes, One-Time Bonus Reward, Adjustments to Rewards Track
These changes are surely a step towards the right path, but in order to make the game more player – friendly they need to alter that archaic crafting system asap.
19.0.2 Sever Hotfix - Issues with Daily & Weekly Quests, Lack of XP from Heroic Duels, Nazmani Bloodweaver, Whizbang And More!
It’s been a good number of months where my friendlist is playing tricks on me everytime I try to challenge someone or spectate a friend. I know that modern era hs requires some good apm skills, but this is just too much! ????????

Sure, Blizzard, sure…
(Update: Starting Soon) Darkmoon Duel-Fest - First Duels Tournament - November 24
Couldn’t have said it better!
What Is a "Created by" Meta and Is It Really That Bad?
I totally agree with the article’s general idea and while “created by” cards can be frustrating (especially when e.g. tempo mage can play 30-40 of them during a game), Solarian prime or Reno’s hero power is on a whole new level of randomness! These cards are bad for the game, as was Yogg Saron etc.
Hearthstone AMA with Developers (August 2020) Summary - Basic/Classic Rework, BG Balane Changes Coming Soon, No Standard Nerfs For Now, New Vanity Cards
Oh, great, just keep looking at Kael’thas and druid in general, maybe the data will show you sth other than how oppressive and silly their combos are…
(Update: You Can Ask Questions Now!) Join the Hearthstone Team for a Reddit AMA on August 11 (Tuesday)
Can someone give them credit for the fantastic job they’ve done with druid? Thank you in advance!
Scholomance Academy Early Meta Decks - Hearthstone Pro & Streamer Legend Deck Lists, Deck Ideas, Decks for All Classes!
I don’t want Druid to be nerfed, I just want from team5 media dpt. to explain the thought process behind overgrowth, lightning bloom, guardian animals and survival of the fittest and their coexistence in a single deck. A few devs’ names made public would be a good idea, too.
I feel so blessed that Alliance bannerman was buffed! Paladin is back on the menu, boys! Oh, and that extra spell for the first stage of the quest will surely make things so much difficult for raza hunter. Not to mention that mage will finally stop freezing the board every turn now that nightcloak sanctum was so heavily nerfed! We’re saved!!!
P.S.: With druid out of the picture, we will no longer have to fear for those late game Brann/Denathrius shenanigans, right?
