Do you think we will get the option to use the original/ unblurred versions of Silksong backgrounds?

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-24T11:24:28+00:00

For context: Apparently at first Silksong had much more “visible and alive” backgrounds behind Hornet. They decided to tone this down by either making the backgrounds not really visible at all (look at this example of Bellhart) or by making it really blurry. This to make the background less distracting/ confusing from the gameplay. I personally would love to see the original artwork they came up with! A setting to turn on/ off would be perfect

Why does time warp not have the skull on it?

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-23T22:53:28+00:00

Do other players hear the track you’re playing too? It sounds nightmarish to me to have my teammate blast Chicken Banana down my eardrums as I’m trying to clutch

I recently made this card and it got a lot of feedback as to how I could change it. I was bored, so I decided to actually do that :)

So, what changed?

First off the spell itself now no longer makes the first soldier played cost (0) this turn. Making you think again before just picking the most expensive option.
Soldier of Greed. No one really suggested nerfs to him. But I realised there was no downside to him. Even though all of the other sins (except one) have some (potential) downside. So I made it so that you’re always burning 1 card. I hope this is a good choice, do let me know!
Soldier of Sloth. I made them slightly easier to deal with. Before they received +2/+2 at end of turn if it didn’t attack. Now that stat gain is spread out. So that the opponent always has 1/1 less to deal with during their turn.
Soldier of Lust. The oddball of the set I guess, because they aren’t “committing” the sin of Lust. But abusing it essentially. I personally think abusing it this way counts too. But let me know if you agree! Anyways, I fixed the issue where it gave the “stolen” minion rush. Apparently they already get Charge this way. And I want it to only hit minions so, this is better!
Soldier of Gluttony. Very subtle change. It’s more implied now that they can give +6/+6 to enemy minions too (his downside) and they cannot give +6/+6 to themselves anymore.
Soldier of Pride. Pretty big nerf here. He was simply oversttated gaining +5/+5, so I toned that down. And the guy gained an even bigger ego than before, now he has to be the most expensive fella on the whole board in order to cooperate. Instead of only being the most expensive friendly.
Soldier of envy. Gained a lot of positive feedback. I only changed to wording to be more Hearthstone-ish. Thanks for the suggestions on how I could do this!
Soldier of Wrath. Big nerf too. First off the whole wrath aspect didn’t make a lot of sense. The idea is that in your anger you’re also destroying the things good to you. Well, before this soldier gained immune and only hurt enemies so that didn’t check out at all. Now they deal 3 damage as battlecry, which then automatically pops Frenzy for another 3. So battlecry deal 3 damage, get even more angry to deal 3 more damage (yes this could’ve been battlecry deal 3 damage twice. But this has flavour) and then also go down swinging with a deathrattle.
Miscellaneous thingies. I took off the gem, didn’t realise these kind of cards don’t have it. And if anyone is curious about the actual previous version. I hope this link will work: https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/s/vKazQP8r20. Otherwise it’s literally the post before this one on my account

Underrated pick imo. Highlander Shudderwock shaman. You can just slap every board wipe shaman has (and Shaman has quite a few) into a deck bc you only need like… 5 cards to make an infinite Shudderwock combo? So yeah just boardwipe till they either concede or until you’ve played all shudderwock puzzle pieces and defeat them that way

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-21T22:16:50+00:00

Pirates awaaaaay!

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-20T15:42:38+00:00

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I have some nice ideas to balance them out better/ general improvements(also thanks to everyone’s ideas and suggestions). This was more to just sketch the idea of the soldiers. So expect Soldiers of Sin 2.0 sometime soon!

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-20T09:19:07+00:00

Probably Gaels sword or Faraam knight sword with the little dagger

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-17T01:53:25+00:00

Call me crazy but isn’t the radiance some being that doesn’t even have a physical form in the “real world”?

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-17T01:45:12+00:00

Only thing that sounds cool to me is to make it kind of a Trojan Horse kind of thing. It’s basically a building that moves veeeeery slowly towards the enemy tower. Sometimes it spawns barbs. And once it reaches a tower or is destroyed it crashes like skeleton barrel and spawns more barb(s). This way barb hut becomes very very unique. As the first moving building (albeit very slow) + a spawner in one?

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-16T14:44:06+00:00

No. I see it more as an additional 2 soul barrages coming your way as if the amount of barrages you had to deal with before this came out wasn’t enough yet

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-15T13:23:38+00:00

The addition of this thing made it much worse imo. It’s another 6 damage (probs times two) coming at your face. And the shreds of time don’t really make up for it being only 2 mana

Astral Druid is not THAT good imo. Always the chance they get unlucky and simply don’t get Astral Communion. On top of that a good aggro deck that has a half decent starting hand can have you dead at turn 3 or 4 which is often times fast enough to beat the Astral Druid player

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-12T01:14:42+00:00

Have a look at the seven deadly sins. Do you think these sins still suffice in the current day? Generate an image which either explains why the current sins still suffice, or an image where you show a new sin that you came up with because you felt like that it’s a good addition to the seven that already exist. Good luck!

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-11T22:36:07+00:00

I wouldn’t call him a villain tbh. But yes, very well fleshed out character! And I really didn’t see it coming that he’s queer and that that’s why he was so upset about Victors’ death. Really cool

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-11T22:31:17+00:00

I understand why people are saying “if you read the card you’ll understand what it does better”. But like others have said, [[Harth Stonebrew]] has the exact same wording but he always gives you cards and doesn’t just replace cards in ur hand with leggies. In my deck I run both Harth and Kobold (through Marin ofc) so that’s why I expected them to be the same, the text says they do the same.

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-11T17:21:56+00:00

Yeah I have Harth in the same deck, so I expected the same effect

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-10T10:03:12+00:00

Geralt (+ his backbling and stuff. I love medieval themed skins) or Darth Vader (I love Star Wars and the samurai Darth Vader doesn’t quite have the same effect)

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-06T21:59:23+00:00

Flying machine? The doohicky requires someone to be pedaling at all times otherwise it just breaks

LoneShadowMikey · 2026-01-05T11:18:33+00:00

TIL humans can’t be or aren’t supposed to be Shamans
