    The whole point of Ben Brode's era was to recognize old players. It's like a badge of appreciation for playing the game. Now those old cardbacks are worthless, since everyone can have it. In today's era the goal is to drain everyone's gold so they need to buy packs when expansions arrive.

    Tournament with custom rules, what an absolute dream! It would be insanely good if on top of that ANYONE could create a room in a lobby with their custom tournament and people interested could go see which tournament has interesting rules to join in. That would shake things up A FUCKING LOT!! Streamers, social media groups, everywhere would get a lot more action to mobilize people to do crazy tournaments.

    Yes and it should count for daily quests and achievements. If there was ANY incentive to play single player adventures, i would play only adventures. Not even battlegrounds would grab my attention anymore.

    It's just so demoralising to die because alexstrasza just vomited 8 dmg in your face.

    I don't need a "wake up call", i know warlock is not the best deck out there.. BUT, it's the only deck that i remotely have some fun in ranked these days. I sometimes i just keep conceding until i get a fair/favorable match, just because i really want to play this shit. Kill the deck and i'll do ranked for the quests only and maybe not even that...

    I have only one pleasure in ranked, only one deck that i remotely like to play in this current expansion: Tickatus control warlock. Kill it and i'll be playing ranked just for quests.

    I love slow control/fatigue/value decks, which i agree, tickatus presence kills them. BUT, if tickatus is out, combos are back in the menu, so it's not like it's such great trade...

    I have 17k of dust in the bank and i just look at every deck out there and it makes me want to just go play battlegrounds...

    My heart really really wants Death Knights, i don't care how, but boring Monks make more sense.

    The problem i see is to create an unique class identity for a DK class... Should it be ress (priest)? Undead (reborn/deathrattle)? Freezing (mage)? I can't imagine something unique to be added, but i wouldn't mind having lots of things that only exists in other classes just merge together to form a DK. I just really really like DKs and i think they are badass to play.

    Monks, on the other hand, there were some very interesting fan therycrafts, but i imagine it would be easier overall to come up with unique mechanics, which would probably be "healthier" for the game, but monks are just... boring.

    He talks about making a Mario Party like mode... but what about Mario MAKER? Create a mode, where players can create their custom cards, then put in a 60 card deck shared by both players to see them in action. Each player creates a random lobby or allow people to create "copies" of famous lobbies to play with those custom cards... it's like a massive test server that will produce some good ideas for sure and players will get content forever. Not everyone will get into it, but streamers (infinity content) and card makers will love.

    First it was "Nozdormu appreciation day", then a whole championship with streamers with all decks having Nozdormu and now i keep seeing lists including Nozdormu everywhere... blizz really did screwed up its design so bad that needs to make a " Nozdormu acceptance campaign" or something?

    Nozdormo may be the least used card of the new set, so that's why they come up with this and that inn-vitational with nozdormo in every deck to promote the card. It's fun to have a "Nozdormo day", could have more nice days like this one... BUT, it needs to give some incentive to criple your own deck, besides the "for the meme" reason.

    Only aggro decks want to have only 15s a turn and if it's aggro vs aggro, chances are that both of you'll already take only less than 15s to play your cards, so most players agree that nozdormo is just burning a card slot, making it 1 card less effective.

    Have anyone already asked if we'll be able to spend achievement points?

    If Tickatus gets nerfed to costing 7 or 8, then at least nerf Mindrender Illucia to cost 4 so that priests won't be able to steal our Tickatus anymore.

    I agree with you and that worries me because control warlock with the corrupt mill package is the only deck i like right now. If mill control warlock is out, then it's time for priest to dominate the late game and we all know how much the community loves losing to priests stealing their stuff and generating random bullshit.

    Yes. Activision going full mobile cash grab mode. It was already hard for f2p, that's why battlegrounds became so popular. Now duels uses old cards and the progression system cut f2p's gold by half. My excitement for this expasion is the lowests since 2013 because last expasion i manage to make so few decks. I'm pretty sure that even though i bought a few expansions and adventures in the past, i'm going to leave HS for good. This mobile cash grab manipulation shouldn't be tolerated.

    So in the old system i got between 7x50g=350g and 7x60g=420g per week (not counting possible 80g or 100g) and now i have to highroll quests to be able to get 300g? That's far from "breaking even" by my book.

    • Before, you would get 10 gold per 3 wins, but how many times did you actually get that during an expansion?

     

    I don't care, i just know that i always manage to save 9k gold between expansions. So as long as i keep getting my 9k, i'm ok with this new system. If i get only half of this, i'm quitting the game for good.
