So supposedly a patch today with new heroes? Or is it already in the client and just a server side thing?
IIRC they'll replace the 2 top and 2 lowest heroes for now and rework their HP's a bit. Might as well balance heroes while they're not active in the game.It's weird they are already getting rid of 4 heroes. They must be planning to rotate back in regularly or something. I liked mukla.
It needs to be at least 24 to warrant for those who have pre-orders currently. I hope they'll permanently increase the pool instead of rotating for sure, for variance sake and not having the top 8 most powerful heroes each game.I don't even think keeping the number at 24 even means anything. Lots of people right now can only choose from 2 heroes anyhow. Might be more variation if you just let the number of heroes climb.
Absolutely at least 24. But it doesn't have to be exactly 24 like they seem to be going with. So yeah we agree there for sure.It needs to be at least 24 to warrant for those who have pre-orders currently. I hope they'll permanently increase the pool instead of rotating for sure, for variance sake and not having the top 8 most powerful heroes each game.
How curious, that has been my same experience, I only got her once in all this time.I think the only hero I haven't been offered, even once, is Milificent, lol.
Same, I just hero powered till I was sub-10 HP and get a lead with the extra gold. Kinda sad to see her go. Imo AFK is more risky, since u are done if u get shitty minions from the discover.Shame they're getting rid of Lich Baz'hial. I actually liked using her and the risks that came along with it, actually got a 1st place or two with her as well.
The main demon synergy card that hurts you when you play a demon and the main demon taunt card that deals 2 to you.Floating Watcher is a weird card to add, there's almost no synergy for it or am I missing something?
Ah right, that tier 1 guy. Thanks.The main demon synergy card that hurts you when you play a demon and the main demon taunt card that deals 2 to you.
Brann with Murlocs definitely seems to have some potential balancing problems. You literally cannot lose with a board like that.

Today's buffs to Murlocs mean it is a lot easier to get Coldlight Seers (and Toxfins). All those +2s and +4s to health add up.It is mostly amalgam with divine shield that is super strong... maybe busted strong like maybe amalgam should not get shields ever lol (from minons, hero power seems ok)

Yeah I agree. The meta is boring as fuck right now. I haven't even played one ranked match this month and I have no desire to. I probably will try to get to 5 if I can muster the motivation, but that's doubtful. Just been doing my quests and going back to battlegroundsThe timing of Battlegrounds couldn't have been more perfect for them. Helping them get through the horrible China related PR and the lowest the meta has been in both wild and standard maybe ever. Usually when standard blows you can play wild or vice versa but not right now.
I'm so surprised how much I enjoy battlegrounds. No auto chess ever interested me at all. Great version of it.
Discover at least helps you figure out a gameplan, especially in the early stages. Discover a Rat Pack / Hyena on 2? Amalgam on 2? You know what to do. Divine shield bot dude on 3? Go go go. Rolling the inn also doesn't guarantee that you will get something you want, so it seems a fine opener to me.Elise is pretty bad. The map you get costs 3 coins to use, with no guarantee that you will get something you want.
Brann is really good. The buff is applied after the minion hits the board. So, for example, if you play a battlecry minion onto an empty board, that minion will get the buff.I won a game with elyse, but for sure she did not help much with the 3 cost discorver cards. Too expensive.
Bran looks insane by what I saw
oh cool tavern brawl is up, haven't played regular heartstone in a while maybe I'll try it and grab a free pack
nvm this is fucking atrocious
These mobile timers are merciless, getting 22 seconds to chose after the battle, plus with all those animations really kill some enjoyment of BGs.
Still get pretty good placement, just got my 10th 1st place, but still, this thing is just wrong no way to properly think.
Lol. You pretty much have to be prepared the second a match ends. It's screwed me over too, but I've gotten used to it and a lot faster at everything. But yeah, they need to work on that. It feels so bad to roll something you want and to buy it but not get it in to play, especially if it costs you the game.Yeah missing a key move because the timer is too short and because you can't click anything when your hand is enlarged and your can't play anything when your hand isn't enlarged.
I'm not convinced anybody tried it on their phone before release.
I mean, that's the whole idea of zerus, I think its fine, I mean, it can high roll the hell out of a game, but getting something huge is not exactly very probably going by the many minions there are and the rate at which it rolls (only once per turn)I don't know that I like zerus being in.
I never buy him, but got him with yogg. Next turn, Mama Bear. On like the fifth round. Immediately dumped my pretty awesome demon board and proceeded to completely destroy every single person from them on.
That feels icky. Obviously he's a risky buy, but man when you high roll it can make the rest of the game feel pointless.
It is pretty good timing - but the standard meta has definitely been worse. There's just not been a lot of fun cards this last expansion unfortunately, the quests just haven't sustained but I would say Odd/Even meta was worse.The timing of Battlegrounds couldn't have been more perfect for them.

I'm saying standard and wild have never been this bad at the same time. There's no where to go to have fun in constructed right now.It is pretty good timing - but the standard meta has definitely been worse.

Battlegrounds is SO good though. I love it so much. Never played an auto battler but this is so much fine, and I find it surprising given it's such a limited pool of minions but loving it.
Ah sorry, misread it. I just forgot Wild exists - i don't think i've ever played it since the split. Why is it so bad atm?I'm saying standard and wild have never been this bad at the same time. There's no where to go to have fun in constructed right now.
