They really believe this game can resist 10 more years one is already on life support? Also pets? No boards? This is the ultimate lazyness cement

Not adding boards and instead selling them is gay, but is that really the best thing for doomsayers to cling on to? Do you really care THAT much about new boards? If so you're the reason they're monetizing them.

in essence, the blog post is nothing but vague double speak, self-jerking how great and innovative the team is(they aren't) and based on surveys they imply that players want more cosmetic customization so they are supposedly working on customizable boards and other board-related cosmetic features.
Also they are going to do only 1 board per year from now.
Basically, they are taking away free features so they can milk the whales at a later stage, meanwhile the gameplay has never been more shit.

it's not surprising that they need to double down on cosmetics, they unironically give out too much free shit that builds up really quickly

i just log in every few days to clear quests in twist or bgs and i still end up being able to buy 100+ packs for each set along with all the stockpiled dust i've never actually felt the need to buy a bundle unless there was a cosmetic i really wanted and i imagine there's quite a lot of people in my situation with the game

I'd bet they aren't actually going to sell boards, they stopped making BG boards a long time ago because literally no one was buying them so they have the data showing that there's no market for them.

Crazy how not even buying 2/7th of a card set for $80 is enough for them. They have to look for more ways to monetize. Literally where the fuck is the money going? I'm so fucking confused. To even play this game it costs more than buying a 100 different games so how the fuck do other games exist If Hearthstone isn't making enough money that they will probably soon be selling the ability to open the application. (Get a fast pass for $5.77 to skip the queue and log in to hearthstone all day!)

is this the worst expansion launch to date? sentiment is overwhelmingly negative even on r*ddit and the forums.

Remember when every piece of Art this expansion was AI and none of them have legs that come from the correct place.

>>487750650
The art has been proven to not be AI (we've seen development progression), but it is uncannily AI-like in style.
It's very odd.

>>487750892
because it's smooth and cartoonish while still trying to be as detailed as more realistic art which is exactly what ai does most of the time since it's usually trained on both cartoony art styles and photo realism

>>487750171
Don't forget they also started scaling back modes as well to save money. I refuse to believe that this is anything other than someone not being happy with the bottom line because of greed. No way the game is not profitable, but it is most likely going downward so it is making all these desperate cash grab moves.

It's not really the that they're insane value, it's that they keep making ways to cheat them out. They never fucking learn, mana cheat is cancer, charge is cancer, hyper aggro is cancer, speeding up the game is metastasizing the cancer. They need to reverse course heavily and make hero powers not be obsolete to start with.

>he thinks Cora or anyone else at Blizzard is ever getting fired
Not happening. The WoW team just unionized, effectively making it impossible to fire anyone in that department from here onwards. It's only a matter of time before this spreads to the other teams within Blizzard. It's probably already happening. I'm not anti-union, I'm not a corporate bootlicker cuck. I simply don't see any positive outcome that results from a team of unmotivated, untalented rejects making it even more difficult for their employer to replace them with skilled labor. Not to mention giving themselves an excuse to perform even less work than they were already doing.
Unions only work when the organizers take pride in what they do, and you can't convince me anyone still working on the Hearthstone team is here because they love this game. They're here because they don't possess any useful skills and aren't capable of getting hired elsewhere in the industry, otherwise they'd have jumped ship with the rest of the old guard who went on to Riot, Bethesda, etc. Current Team 5 is made up of the same people who were "exposing" how terribly Blizzard treats them a few years ago. Anyone still working on Hearthstone is a paycheck stealing fraud.

But we also unionize and basically say that none of us can be fired, yet the people moving money cannot really pay our salaries.... what then? Surely the people moving money can offer us lower salaries? But would it be feasible to have salaries that in a western progressive country cannot even cover rent? I mean I am not against unions, but I really do not think WoW is selling that well for it to be able to just go "yea, well, you cannot fire us, lol".

It won't work. Monk doesn't have the same pull as Demon Hunter or Death Knight. Illidan and The Lich King are both iconic characters that even people who've never played WoW or Hearthstone will recognize. Those same people wouldn't be able to tell you what WoW character could represent Monk in Hearthstone. Evoker is even worse than Monk in that regard.

I should go check in on kibler
I wonder what he's been doing all these years

>>487782865
he's back to magic but he mostly plays casual edh now

>>487782865
he does a mtg commander show with his unlikeable wife and random e-celebs

You really that make people more or less invested in a class? No oke is roleplaying as Illidian or Arthas people will just see one thing: How busted the panda or the dragon are on release and jump that boat without a second thought.

>>487782865
Kibler makes aome HS but he is mostly into Magic and i can't blame him considering how this game is fast dying

what proof you have hearthstone is doing bad? why you believe perils in paradise is worse than other past expansions?

>>487784474
I read it on reddit.

>>487783730
Nah monk is one thing but invoker is the tranny furry class designed by actual tranny furries. If they add invoker I’m out and never returning.

Holy shit I thought you guys were joking about how bad this game has gotten. I just reinstalled only to play 3 games before uninstalling again. Every single game was Zilliax on turn 5/6. wtf are the devs doing

>>487784474
Look at YouTube views. Hearthstones biggest expat launch day videos struggle to surpass 30k views. It’s actually over. Anyone with sense and objectivity sees the writing on the wall.

>>487784474
the truth is it's not even that much worse than any of the last few expansion (well, the tourist keyword is really bad but yeah)
problem is we've gotten shit expansions after another in a row for like a year and half
it's the straw that broke the redditor's back basically

>>487786057
>Turn 5
Just wait until it gets played on turn 3
There is legitimately no way to come back unless you're playing an OTK deck... ON TURN FUCKING 3

>>487786267
How do you play it on turn 3m

>reach gold
>every other match is agaisnt a realized deck and the rest are clearly old players sandbagging(all gold cards)
very cool guess i have to wait for the loaner cards so i can destroy and craft something viable now

>If you already got a free deck in the past, if you stay inactive for over 90 days again, you will be eligible for another free deck. So if you only play at the start of each expansion, you can technically get a new free deck every set.
See you all next expansion

>Last five games I've played against 4 unique classes
>They were all playing the same elemental deck

This is bad that I'd rather play against secret hunters 24/7

You can't consistently burn with monored with anywhere near the same success rate as Hearthstone because of lands.

>>487808065
Yeah, you can't consistently do fucking anything because of lands. Funny that you accuse HS of "sit and watch the opponent vomit resources," while that's what I do in a third of my Magic games, because I either draw shit for lands or nothing BUT lands.
And don't even get me started on blue, which happily stops you from playing the cards you actually manage to draw, while gaining a billion resources and deleting your deck.

How can you say this game is good you have to be stupid. People love this game because it's free, that's the only reason. It's a shitty game made for children and the only reason people play is because it's free

Wow!

>>487809117
Then your land to converted mana cost ratio is shit.

>>487809258
I am literally running the same exact decks as everyone else. There is nothing you can do to stop the game from deciding to land-fuck you at complete random.

>>487809389
Sometimes that happens. Same can happen to anyone you're playing against, too. If it consistently happens to you, then you're doing bad mulligans.

>>487809625
I didn't say consistently. I said a third of games, roughly. But that's more than enough to make playing the game feel like fucking garbage. Why would I play a card game where I might lose with absolutely no input on my end? You insult Hearthstone for not being able to do things on your opponent's turn, but in MTG sometimes you just plain can't do anything on ANY turn. Because the game decided, hey, fuck you.

Didn't they do an experiment where magic ditched lands and you just placed any color card in the "land" zone for mana and it just was a worse experience across the board?

>>487814429
Almost like the game is designed around the shitty system, and removing it doesn't help the situation. Tear it all down and start from scratch. Oh wait, that's what every newer card game is doing.

As long as card games rely on RNG shuffle draw from deck systems, blowouts due to bad draws will happen, it is inherent to the randomness .

Drawing your lategame in the mull/early game is functional equivalent to flood/screw and you can't deny it

Is there a cardgame where you can choose which card you want to draw from your deck?

I almost never have that issue in Hearthstone, because discover is a good mechanic that lets you smooth out any weirdness that tries to happen in your drawn curve.

Nobody's stopping you from eating shit.

Fuck Druid man, what a waste of time, even as Unkilliax Warrior you can't win, what gay deck doesn't use Brann anyway I have to look before I just grab any old netdeck these days. That was my whole night of gaming before work, thanks guys. Damn graveyard shifts.

They're Druid legendaries in disguise. 2 per expansion are not enough for their beloved protagonist.

holy fuck is it completely over for a newfag trying to get into arena without just installing firestone? should i just insta concede and take the 0-3 rewards? because i just got brutally raped for 3 losses in a row (minus 1 win to someone who immediately conceded) with a deck i thought was okay

>>487816728
I played against a ton of fun decks today in casual including a few big spell bros. That big frost elemental summon spell is pretty devastating if set up correctly.

Lots of people playing shitty homebrews there, trying different things and after I get to a good enough rank every month I think it will be the only mode I queue up on from now on away from the tryhard metaslop.

>>487819380
Just keep at it. The way to get better at arena is unironically to just play arena.

>>487821026
but i dont even like arena i just want the rewards and thought i could at least get 3-3 by getting matched into other newfags

Been playing dragon priest with just cheese dragon as the new thing but I also added fly off the shelves and it’s actually been handy as hell more often then not. It’d be nice if repackage wasn’t 7 mana but oh well.

There’s something just really beautiful about needing a couple more dragons to activate Zarimi and gambling it all in your cheese to give you that final push

Its not just that they hired streamers, players, commentators that dont have a gamedesign background or any experience in game design. The few designers they hired, like Leo, just came from university with 0 actual experience.

Leo now also started streaming but he bans people quite fast.

>the devs are the only really visible people the community sees and the ones who unfairly take the hit when things go sideways because they're an easy target

two things can be true. their business practises, overpricing and general lack of smart deals and rewards is not on the devs. but they are the ones printing bad cards and not balancing the game.
zeddy is just a coward and so are most of the big streamers when it comes to calling them out. they just play whatever druid deck is currently broken and say the game is amazing because they win

>>487827380
Pretty much this. Nothing is going to change because they rarely if at all get called out by people who are more visible to them and there is a large portion of the reddit faggs who will suck their dick at every chance possible even if they keep making brain dead card making decisions. Since they used reddit as their sound off board they just keep doing the shit they do. Even when some of the less retarded redditors make posts calling them out there will always be an equal amount of posts praising them and asking to be fed more shit.

No other card game that I know of allows for such ridiculous power plays so early. not unless its 2 cards printed 10+ years apart having a niche interaction in a format where things like that are expected to happen, far far away from the sanitized and curated playground of standard.

The only way to win as aggro vs druid/warrior is:
