I like this new reveal style. We're starting with the general neutral theme of the crowd and concert-goers (with amazing flavor by the way) and then we'll be amping up to featuring the cool stuff in each of the bands. So much better to have the reveals get more exciting than blow out with the best stuff first and dump everything else afterward. This is like we're milling in the crowd waiting for the concert to begin and I feel the same excitement!
I love this card back so much. Pumpkin deserts and treats are one of my favorite things about fall and this cardback makes my mouth water, lol. It's amazing how they make it look so real and tasty. HS truly has amazing artists.
Still haven't gotten a full 12-wins, but that priest deck did get me a nice 9-win game, which was a full gold refund for the ticket plus a pack, golden card and 20 gold, so I'm happy. It's rare I get that far, even with decks on these lists.
What can I say? A majority of the most powerful and famous characters in Azeroth have been mages. For characters like Medivh, Khadgar and Azshara, you really don't have any other choice.
Hearthstone tends to generalize troll loa powers as shaman/witch doctor powers unless they are directly linked with shadow magic, in which case they are priest.
I view it a bit more as symbolic of modern life and increasingly complex social aspects of life/society distancing people from the basics of human nature and reality, thinking they can reshape anything into their personal paradise of whatever they want it to be, but reality will always come crashing down. That's just my personal thought, but honestly most of this lore is written "rule of cool" as a game first and any philosophical element is kind of added on retroactively.
Yes, this is the first of a three-part series of articles. The second will be the War of the Ancients and the third will be about the Naga themselves. I would have the second part out already, but work's been keeping me too busy/tired to write it up. It's coming along, though. The legendary minions might be worked into the Naga story guide, but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. Thanks for reading! :)
Exelent point. I was thinking something similar myself. Perhaps we start out in one of the first zones and "go deeper" into the next most intense one. Either Vasj'ir to Nazjatar or Nazjatar to Ny'lothia.
True, but if it was once a year that would give them plenty of time. At the very least we could get new heros/skins to play as. I'm so tired of the scholomance teachers over and over again.
Darn, was nothing brought up about the need to have proper rotations and seasons with card sets and characters instead of just adding more and more to a huge mismash? I want to see a new season where Scolomance professors are replaced with new characters ( and likely treasures or hero powers) we can enjoy playing at and we have a new combo of limited sets to deckbuild with for a different challenge. This is what I've expected of Duels since the start and, while I do enjoy the game mode, have been very disappointed with so far.
Yes, but the article only mentions getting the free ticket from unfinished arena runs. I know the ticket will work for both, but I'm just making sure I can get it from both as well.
Many thanks my good Sule :)
What am I supposed to put in the ETC?

I really want to try out that mage deck, but there's no list as of my writing this comment.
I've really missed these!!!!
Oooo, very clever idea. I'd like to see a custom card version of this concept if it isn't made into an actual card.
Excellent point about the infuse mechanic.

Hmmm, could this be hints of Pandaria coming soon?
I'm confused as to what advantage Maestra of the Masquerade gives in a deck with hardly any neutral cards to keep up the disguise.
Enjoy :)
