these days if you remade Blood Manos it'd read "ALL minions (wherever they are)."

I got this title for free due to my proximity to an idiot who wanted to save $5 on an avatar by having someone else spend $9.95 instead.
There’s a fun bug with the Duels paladin ability that resurrects a minion with 1 health; it gives you two copies. Naturally I found this out because my opponent was running Elwynn Boar.

would wildheart guff hero card in core be that bad without Brann? if they get rid of the OTK battlecry engine maybe it won't be so bad

Hmm. I'm going to say Wildheart Guff in the next core set would probably be somewhere close to fine, but not because they lose Brann. It's losing Jerry Rig Carpenter and the stupid amounts of reliable ramp that comes with it that would make Guff not be a "ten mana on turn 5" meme card that everyone hates. EDIT: And they're losing Scale of Onyxia too, which is the other big spell that negates all the downsides of spending your early turns on ramp. Point is, even if they kept Brann for easy stupid combo kills, they're still losing all the tools that made ramp druid safe at its peak.

Not that I expect them to actually put Guff in the next core set. Maybe in a few years, but not now.

It honestly wouldn't, but I feel like if they made one hero card Core they'd kind of have to do them all, and then you just end up with a year that feels very similar to this past year. I think the core set is one of the best ideas they've had for Hearthstone, and such a great opportunity to freshen up the meta (honestly I think it should be shuffled around every 6 months) so it would be a shame if it just had a bunch of recent repeats. Maybe if we're talking several years down the road, idk.

My guess based off that wink wink description is that they’re not gonna add every hero card to core but instead a neutral legendary with a battlecry that adds your class hero card from Gryphon to your hand or deck or something

if they do that at the very least I hope they make it random so half the time instead of Guff they get useless Malfurion

To be fair, Jaraxxus is core so that’s already one… but I get what you’re saying

There's quite a few mechanics that came to be in that list (Rattlegore, "guess the discover and get a copy", reordering deck by cost). Also some of them I'd dread EVER showing up

I know Blizzard doesn't give a poo poo about Duels at this point but it's loving wild that a format that you can pay to play still has this bug days later

Jazz theme: I dunno, do overload again I guess

Hopefully the new Core puts in Totem Golem or something, because the current selection of overload cards ain’t good. It’s one of those mechanics Blizzard forgets about for years on end until they run out of ideas for Shaman and return to the well.

Jazz is about the mana crystals you don't play.

EDIT: Anyway, I guess I'm just hoping there's more good big spells in this set, because I'm willing to be surprised but the options Shaman have to cheat out with their new weapon don't seem particularly thrilling.

Literally cackling, rogues get a legendary spell that returns all friendly minions to your hand and they cost 1 each this turn. Legendary Shadowstep. Also it has the best name.

I'm really going to miss Guff, and I hope they keep Brann. Just finished a fun game against frost aggro DK where I survived on 1, then did the full combo for exact lethal. Quest Druid is very fun to play.

In case you were worried, Leo Robles confirmed on Twitter that Bounce is not generatable. Which is good, because it would be obscenely broken with School Teacher otherwise.

They also announced that the Core Set would get revealed later this week, and Chakki obliquely confirmed that Ancestral Knowledge would be in it with reduced overload.

I wonder if they're removing shadowstep from core, since they revealed two replacements. When they removed eviscerate, they immediately printed wicked stab.

Also wondering if there'll be a rogue location that's about stepping or bouncing

You may not like it, but I'm out here doing yeoman's work feasting on BBB DK. For the community, and because having do-nothing decks concede after a T6 Pathmaker for crystals into Guff is a sweet feeling.

So this is what happens when a buffed hydralodon meets that DK spell that deals 1 damage and keeps going as long as you have corpses to spend.



He got up to 32 but I didn't get a chance to play him because my opponent disconnected. :saddowns:

I think it shows how many more are required for the next trigger. After the next minion dying it would show Endlessly Infuse (2) again.

I was playing burgle Rogue VS blood DK in a very fun, extended slugfest... he had just played Astalor but I had 3 copies of Astalor 3 in hand and was ready to burn him down, then I played a Tess that recast a Whirlpool I forgot I played earlier in the game and destroyed all my copies. Honestly might be the most embarrassing thing I've done in my entire HS career.
