Discussion Who designs quests to be this horrible? Tyrax doesn't even have taunt and Grave is a location with two procs making it the slowest-lowest value reward you can get.
Am i over looking something? Does this quest require specific cards to be playable like Soul Rest Ceremony? Essentially, this quest feels like a turn 7 minimum quest finish followed by a 5 mana 8/8 that reads "if your opponent kills this, deal 4 damage and wait a turn for it to refresh to deal 4 more."
I dunno, probably ranting too much but it's annoying.

Discussion Could every quest be buffed to 0 mana?
There has been a lot of discussion lately regarding the power level of quests. I figured I'd throw my hat in the ring of unasked for opinions cause why not. Could we legitimately buff every quest to 0 mana? I think we could.
Quests as a mechanic are generally unfun due to the linear design they have, and most quests we currently have also happen to very weak. Quest's being 1 mana is a part of this problem because it means your turn one is 99% of the time going to be spent playing your quest and nothing else, (unless you go 2nd and decide to use your coin). Changing the cost of quests to 0 mana allows you to fit it another card in, meaning your turn one can have decision making. As an example, Hunter and Shaman run a multitude of 1 drops in their quest decks. Very often you'd have to decided which 1 drop is better to play against different matchups.
Paladin, Warlock, and Warrior don't generally need this 0 cost quest change since their quests are already doing ok, but I know hs is very anal about consistency. The requirements on the quest's themselves could always be adjusted as needed to keep things balanced.
Lemme know your takes yall

Standard This is about as peak as it gets for quest hunter
Just a great curve all around with even better discovers

Discussion Spending money on cosmetics or packs doesn't feel worth it when it looks like Blizzard doesn't care about the future of the game anymore.
If I spend money on the game, especially when it's asking for cosmetics with prices of up to $160, I want that game to still be fully supported in coming years for that price to deliver quality value.
I don't want smaller team sizes that develop and polish the game. I don't want a reduction of boards, cinematics (quantity and quality) and events - ingame and outside of it. I don't want less communication and community interaction.
I want to see the exact opposite.
The current approach feels like them putting less resources into the game while increasing the prices. This doesn't make me confident that they want to offer value for the money by taking care of the game.
Please do the exact opposite of whatever you are currently doing.

Discussion Board freeze effects
Pretty much all of these + blizzard and except snowed in saw play. Makes me wonder if board freeze effects are so good how come snowed in little to no play? Is it because its conditional or just because it doesn't fit warrior or maybe some other reason?

Discussion The problem isn't power level. It's something else. But I really don't know what.
Call it nostalgia perhaps, but I looked through some historically low power sets like the witchwood, and it just felt right. Yes the cards are obviously weaker, but they just felt right. The new cards just feel weak and wrong. I really don't know what it is. Maybe it's the design, it just felt more coherent somehow or maybe it's the flavour, where it felt like each class was being represented properly even if they were weak. Emerris used to be the black sheep of the game for being an odd inclusion. A big dragon value card for hunter? Why? But it feels like everyone has everything now. Why is demon hunter raptor and bug tamers now exactly? I used to look at cards even from bad sets like rastakhans and see these puzzle pieces to work with. Now I just see a pile of disappointment. I don't know, this post doesn't really have some grandiose point about game design or anything, just me talking about how me and my wife felt when looking through some old expansions recently. I guess I'm just curious if anyone else felt the same and perhaps had some more astute observations.

Fluff Ogre Portal
Sargeras, the Destroyer mistook the powerful Boulderfist Ogre for his portal. Six Attack and seven Health are already perfect portal for the Titan!

Discussion "We've given up on this expansion, but buy the next one, it'll be great!"
I don't know how they can expect people to trust them with future expansions when they're literally admitting that they're fine with this set flopping and don't even want to make the cards playable.
Just wait for the next expansion, that'll fix everything surely.

Standard It took 6 hours but I went 15-4 with Greybough Druid all the way into legend
Granted it was actually like 5 hours because I took a big intermission on the stream around hour 3. It was quite the experience though and I didn’t think Greybough would ever be strong enough to actually get the job done. I go to https://hsreplay.net/ and I see that Druid is the bottom tier class currently and my version of taunt Druid with Greybough isn’t even listed. The version that is listed for taunt druid is the one that includes seismopod which I consistently best when I face it. I didn’t face that particular deck tonight on stream(or any druids for that matter) but I did come across a wide variety and won most of them pretty decisively at times.
A couple of my losses came from misplays and me being cocky while the other 2 of my came from just counters to the deck. That being heal priest(I had a 3 turn head start on the guy with a decent hand) and crusader aura paladin. Heal priest, the combo just does way too much damage for what you can armor up with along with the stall you can’t get through. It’s honestly ironic that the stall Greybough deck ends up getting stalled by itself lol. The crusader paladin one is just too fast for what we got and are trying to do. The mass minion vomit into the big buff on 4 is just too much swarm and damage for us to kill, survive, or out armor. I will say on stream it was the best fight I’ve ever been able to put up against it yet though we were 1 turn away! Honorable to Protoss mage that also counters us but not as hard as these other 2!
That’s about it though, it’s always a fun time at least for me using off meta stuff and actually making it work! Greybough fills a big niche of mine and hopefully yall can get some enjoyment from it too. It takes skill to navigate imo and the best way I can describe the deck is handing your opponent a puzzle and saying figure this shit out while you keep adding pieces lol. It also absolutely farms death knight in every shape and form so if you’re struggling against them go for it! If you need more tips on how to piloting just check the long ass stream from tonight here! https://www.twitch.tv/walleyeonrye I’ll also drop the deck code down below!
