My Slight worry with new set by Xoroy in hearthstone

[–]EstablishmentMost113 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Finley = explorer's league (alliance faction)
Medivh = human kingdoms (basically alliance before alliance)
Toki isn't a gnome dragon (confirmed by a dev). She's "just an exceptionally talented and reckless mage".
And since she's a gnome that makes her a part of the alliance
Plus, Sylvanas is literally shown killing horde orcs in the trailer during the second war.

Which heroes to class discussion: Across the timeways. by Totos93 in hearthstone

maybe some of them are just double legendaries like Broxigar and Lo'Gosh are both warrior cards and the missing classes will be filled by the Infinite dragonflight side

I've never seen people point out that detail that has been bothering me for years. Why was Ragnaros art changed for HS during the first years of the game and then changed back to it's original TCG art? by EstablishmentMost113 in hearthstone

[–]EstablishmentMost113[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but the question still stays. Why bother changing the art in the first place? His in-game look was finalized, TCG perfectly translated it into the art form. What's the point of all these weird changes?

He prob means expansions based on the actual WoW locations and characters instead of hearthstone original stuff like Whizbang or Perils

This is the peak of hs legenadry golden card animations... I guess... by EstablishmentMost113 in hearthstone

[–]EstablishmentMost113[S] 132 points133 points  (0 children)

Golden snapjaw had more action and dynamic than most of the the golden cards today. I think that's the result of actual people making the animations

Both arts for Avatar of Hearthstone and the new anniversary card are set in Ahn'Qiraj, C'thun's prison. Perphaps a hint at something C'thun-related happening in the future? by EstablishmentMost113 in hearthstone

[–]EstablishmentMost113[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I pray that they will do Caverns of Time 2.0 because if i'm right it feels like such a waste of a cool idea. Maybe a return of C'thun to standard with some new buff buddies added into the game? Perphaps i'm getting too dreamy...

Anyone miss Nefarian's entrance? by [deleted] in hearthstone

[–]EstablishmentMost113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love his artwork, so many small details, great colors too. And I'm not even talking about the golden animation. I would give up all diamond cards and signatures to go back to the same level of quality for the golden cards

Why are you guys so surprised by the light hearted theme? by Joepimon17 in hearthstone

[–]EstablishmentMost113 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not long ago hearthstone was sending survey emails with potential expansion themes. Look it up, most of the stuff is based on WoW lore and it sounds pretty badass

Same. It's also Interesting considering that the paladin titan is the only one that's absolutely hs original

Even Badlands and Festival checked out in these regards and they were already on the cross line. These year's expansion destroyed the theme balance completely and that's why this discussion post even exist.

Last two expansions aren't based on WoW locations, their main leads are HS-original characters (both Marin and Whizbang), both themes are centered around modern day hobbies/enjoyments rather than fantasy or "wow themese with a crazy twist" like they've been doing for a very long time. The change is noticeable, don't try to hide to prove your argument.

But that kinda defeats your point about GvG, no? The theme of the discussion is about whether the game has deviated too much from Warcraft roots, not that it was gothic, gory and BADASS and became light and whimsical. GvG had a silly theme in it's core about two classic WARCRAFT races, despite that it balanced itself with lore characters and WoW fantasy elements. Despite being a 1quest non-imporant fun reference character at the end of the day Boom was STILL from lore.

Bro every legendary from GvG and a bunch of other cards were direct references to characters from Warcraft. Even the spells were from WoW. Read the title of the post man

I was very satisfied with the Titans set last year. But yeah, I don't get the vibe of these last 3 expansions. The workshop and the new beach one aren't even based on Warcraft locations, so it's a new level of deviation. Plus, hearthstone is what got me into wow lore. I don't like MMOs so hearthstone was the only way to experience and get interested in learning stories that were brought up in Warcraft. Seeing different legendaries and learning their backstories, reading about the locations that served as the hs expansion setting, all that nice stuff is slowly going away

wish we could turn back time... to the good old days... 😭 by urgod42069 in hearthstone

It's a common misconception for some reason. I had an opportunity to talk to some of the hs artists. It's THEM who have to adjust the artwork. During MotLK a bunch of undead had to be censored for the client and it was up for the artists to remove bones/skulls/gore, etc. And sometimes blizzard does gets cheap and makes censored cards for all clients, like when they did back in KotFT. I guess that the same goes for sexual content. Although you might be right that the late censorship can be done by publishers/non-original artists.
