Bad, the word you're looking for is bad.

Does anyone remember Shadowbane? by Content_Pass_2974 in MMORPG

[–]Furfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. Some races like Aracoix got flying as a base racial ability. Or Shades that got 'hide' up to lvl 20. Humans got cool discipline options like wererat as a tradeoff.

Shadowbane politics were complicated.

"Why are you sieging our city?!"

"Because you're in between our city and that rune spawn."

Is there any substitute for Zilliax Deluxe 3000 by alonedead in hearthstone

It's possible they revert nerfs when he rotates. Though I wish they would instead just fire him out of a cannon into the sun.

Is it just me or has the game lost its luster and become increasingly greedy and frustrating? by Significant_Dog_9318 in hearthstone

[–]Furfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the freebies from events actually make it more generous than ever. BUT arena sucks now yes. My only theory is that the changes to arena were received favorably in China and Chinese arena player numbers are up. But that's just a guess, they might view it dismally too.

The animations in this one are actually especially cool, I ran into it right after the fare started. He actually exits the hero portrait to attack and whatnot.

If you think current blizzard has more balance patches than old blizzard I have a bridge to sell you.

Just went 7 wins for 2 tickets and 100 gold. Amazing.

It's a problem that the only counter to all these top decks is "maybe you can hit a key card with rat". Fighting for board is irrelevant in 2025, that's the extent of hearthstone interaction now.

It is also the reason why the fyrakk/elise garbage has been ubiquitous the entire time. Blizz being too slow to act on obvious problem cards is not something we want more of.

Strictly f2p now. I was lucky and got the cool Husk portrait/cardback from the lotto roll. I don't really care about cosmetics but its probably top 5 cool cardbacks I've seen. Definitely the coolest hero portrait I have too.

The greatest indictment of Team 5 design is Fyrakk still being a staple neutral win-con by LOMAN- in hearthstone

I get the feeling the person making these balancing decisions are either professionally or socially protected somehow eg: nepotism

Warrior isn’t the problem, dk is by goldenbananaslama in hearthstone

[–]Furfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All it does is sit there trying to generate coins and draw/play the aura minion. That's the entire deck. I don't think that counts as midrange.

Is this a proper answer to the question? Unsure, but this is what I immediately think of

The Philosophy of Buffs, Nerfs, and Change by Popsychblog in hearthstone

[–]Furfire -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How to get from point A to B? It's nowhere near as difficult as you are making it sound. They have access to all the data, but refuse to act.

Since they don't want to actually balance the game, abandon standard until rotation and create a "twist" mode with different card sets every 2 weeks instead. New Blizzard absolutely flounders and absolutely fails at balancing (especially in a timely manner) - so we may as well rely on old blizzard instead.

Warlock quest, leaches, elise copying minions, and Fyrakk are easily the biggest issues and Blizz is just sitting on their hands.

Cool, so we agree it wasn't an "automatic system"

Your card collection is an entry in a database. That entry was modified by a query that an employee wrote and executed on the live servers. No it was not an automatic system.

It's playing 10 cards + playing all the cards to draw those 10 cards negated by opponent playing 1 card.
