    It disappoints and genuinely surprises me to hear those sorts of insults from P4wnyhof and he deserves to be made an example of. But there's no doubt Blizzard's motivation derived from the Reddit witch-hunt, which will now escalate at the next mention of his name and become more insufferable. P4wnyhof has a genuine and growing community of supporters, like it or not, and his stream is a broadly positive thing for Hearthstone. I'm sad he seems destined to never get a shred of acknowledgement for that.

    Shhhh stop ruining the circle jerk! Reddit will get mad if they don't get to praise Forsen for being the savior of Hearthstone.

    There's some circumstantial evidence of that.

    Doesn't really matter at this point whether or not he viewbotted in the past given his subsequent behaviour.

    I was watching a card review video from Trump, and he's discussing Evolving Spores. The usual pros/cons, but brought up something I thought strange. He said you if you cast it on a Wild Pyromancer and choose Poisonous it will clear all the other minions on the board.

    Poisonous is described as "Destroy any minion damaged by this." So what he's saying totally makes sense, but I never would have made that connection.

    One of the PlayHearthstone tweets also clarified that prior to its release, which led to speculation that they were going to print some way to Adapt a Pyromancer.

    Unfortunately Evolving Spores isn't exactly priced at the level that facilitates consistent use alongside Pyromancer (namely, 1-2 mana).

    His behaviour has been frankly exemplary in the face of an extraordinary campaign of untempered hate, beyond the one insensitive remark that yes, was problematically condescending to the fact that the other streamer has two dads.

    Honestly if the community broadly had a lick of moral authority I'd feel bad for supporting him, but the hypocrisy is rank, and I know P4wnyhof well enough to trust him when he says he regrets his words.

    edit: the two tweets in question broadly amount to "Who's going to be proud of you? Your momma? Or wait, your two dads :biggrin:"

    Not a nice thing to say to someone who's no doubt lived through a lot of harassment about it, no doubt.

    Can we move on?

    It is hard not to engage and I don't think arguing about this in the thread will be super productive :P

    Let's talk about bad art designs for the Un'Goro cards again :D

    the wild pyro interaction is probably more important for the future rather than this specific set

    now that poisonous is keyworded i expect it to slowly crop up more, and i would not be surprised to see rogue get a spell that just says "give a minion poisonous"

    Finally gave up on my beloved, baffling Pirate Dragon Warrior and went full Pirate Warrior since dragons are going away soon.

    Yep, every bit as disgusting as advertised.

    Also, that card is nuts in agro decks. Hello neutral minibot, at least for paladin/pirates/hunter

    "High Rez" is one of the Adapt options, actually.

    Because it was screen-capped from a low rez foreign language source and then they used that picture and put it into a full-rez frame for the english translation

    All the extra processing power needed for deck slots has meant they have to downsample the art so as not to strain the game engine.

    After reading so many comments about bad art I went back and looked at all of the revealed cards.

    Yes the Druid legendary is trash art. Yes, there are a few bland dinos. But, man, I really like some of the art! Crackling Razormaw is fantastic! So are cards like Curious Glimmerrot, Sherazin Corpse Flower, Lakkari Felhound, King Mosh, Tortollan Primalist, Glouttonous Ooze... and I'll stop there but I kept seeing more and more the more I looked.

  • AegisAegis Fear My Dance Overshot Toronto, Landed in OttawaRegistered User regular
    I don't mind some of the creature art in general. But the backgrounds for these cards are head scratching.

    uuuugh two games already where I instantly lose because they topdeck the removal they need on turn 3/4 so I can't snowball my early board lead. At least have it in your hand already, dangit.

    I think in regard to the art conversation, it just seems weird that we get some good art pieces and meh art pieces. It feels inconsistent, like they hired 5 artists of differing abilities with no real direction other than "here's blizzard's art pieces from various games, commence with arting!"

    I mean, I could expect one or two meh pieces but there seems to be far far more than that, which again I find really inconsistent.
