    No, it's the card from the choose mechanic of Wisps of the Old Gods. There's a lot of uncollectible cards in the facebook album.

    No, that's an option from the new Whispers card.

    Yes a 0 mana +2/+2 for all minions, quite balanced.

    So many new cards! Some are really cool.

    Shatter seems like it will have a spot in Freeze mage, a cheap removal that combos well with other cards in your deck. Or maybe the "randomly freeze an enemy when you cast a spell" minion.

    Ah, I missed the reveal so that's why it looked new to me.

    Damn these reveals.
    Part of my brain is screaming, start playing the game again! do the quests for the gold to buy all the shiny new cards!
    while the other part tries to remind, we quit partly because we resented those quests, that demanded our time but also dictated how we played.

    The quests are fairly generous for a f2p game. While more demanding than LoL's first win of the day, you can also not play for 3 days and lose nothing. I spent a lot of time playing Dominion bot games because I didn't have the time to play full games that day. I don't like how it's implemented in Hots (at least last time I looked at it), but mobas poison your soul, so

    really? hots is cool because only one of the quest requires you to actually win and you can do them in easy AI games if you want to, plus it has the same three-quest queue hearthstone does

    So Rogue is getting some really good cards we hadn't seen before, but I still don't think they'll make up for the Blade Flurry nerf.

    Board clears are gonna be king in the "midrange no busted deathrattle minion boards" meta.

    Vanish may cause some devastating bullshit in CThun Rogue.

    Adwacta made this point in one of his card review videos: most of the common neutrals that are good curve minions are cthun cards and will not be available. This (with the offering bonus) means that curving out will be considerably harder than it is now.

    When I logged into LoL what I wanted to do was play 1-3 specific champions, I wouldn't want the game to tell me I know you're trying to practice jungle Shvana but whoops you have to play 5 games of Marksman. I don't have that kind of attachment to the Hero I play. Plus moba games are a lot more of a time commitment than a game of Hearthstone, even if you don't have to win.

    an easy AI game in hots is literally the length of a hearthstone game, about 6-10 minutes depending on how many specialists you rolled

    and for playing a specific role it's only 3 games, or 2 for a franchise

    Am I missing something about this Brawl? Why are people Discovering so many spells? I discover like 2 early game minions, play them on turn 3 & 4, discover more minions and maybe one spell.

    Meanwhile, my opponents are playing every spell they can to kill my minions, but never have a board.

    The only thing I can see that makes the Blade Flurry nerf make sense is that something else coming out this year would have made it complete bullshit in its old state, and they seem very much to only want to do a balance pass once per year, so they're thinking way ahead.

    Literally nothing else makes sense.

    Nerfing blade flurry early created a strategy revolving around waiting for the next expansion that was not particularly fun or interactive.

    Depends on what class you're playing I suppose. I did druid and discovered force, triple roar, and a bunch of innervates. It was a very fun way to win.

    priest is pretty good when doing all spells because doing all spells gives you minions!

    I only discovered two minions the entire game for the one I won; one when I actually had initiative one turn, discovered dr. boom (lol) and then another time I discovered Master Jouster which I guaranteed won because they had no minions in deck and I had their DotC in mine c:

    While we're complaining, I'm salty the shaman 3/2 is epic. We'll have to see how it shakes out, but the distribution of actually good cards seems significantly pushed up the rarity scale to me, compared to GvG and TGT.
