Hearthstone

Did anybody not use eqwindow?

Even then you couldn't travel a lot whle tabbed out.

I'm probably gonna get Liadrin just because she probably won't stay free forever. but meh. Don't really want to DL WoW.

*edit*

then again, I probably spent just as much time emulating a galaxy for a couple packs and a card back, so I guess leveling to 20 in wow isnt a big deal.

I am pleased to report that I hated it, even though I ended up only doing two-ish levels. Nice to know that particular itch will never return at least.

The Reno change is just sad. Why not make the game even more retard-proof and have the opponent's portait flash red with skull & crossbone signs so nobody ever gets punished for missing lethal

What change?

Reno has the "glow when activating conditions met" thing now, just like every other card with "When x, do y" text.

How does it even matter? The vast majority of people playing Reno are running a deck of entire singletons, and of those who aren't I'm pretty sure almost all of them are using a deck tracker. This change hardly affects anyone.

And people will still throw him out without checking to see if he's glowing or not. Happened to me with Blackwing Corruptor earlier today.

It is kind of a buff to when you get Reno off Elise though. You never know if the monkey gave you dupes.

Yeah, whatever. I felt it was a little spoonfed when they first started doing that with other cards, but now it seems natural. Not really a big deal.

So far all of these minions that buff C'thun pass the vanilla test and are good. Looking more and more viable. I can't wait to see a Rogue deck that bounces the 2 mana Battlecry give Cthun +2/+2 wherever it is back to your hand over and over and then casts C'thun for a billion damage with a Brann bahahaha. Will be funny because Emperor will still be in too. Rogue Combo C'Thun meta? hmmm

And uhh, Reno was always meant to glow. Why would he be ANY different than any other similar conditional card??? They stated several times it was because of server limitations and how the game checks for copies of cards in your deck and how they needed to find a way to do it that didn't totally destroy the servers. Apparently they found a way. It wasn't anything to do with making the game more friendly, it was about consistency... If they'd have solved the problem before Reno was released, he would have started with a golden glow. Jesus what a dumb thing to care about.

Have they clarified the difference between battlecry's that say wherever he is or don't? If it doesn't say wherever he is does he have to be in play?

C'Thun doesn't have to be in play for cards that say 'if C'Thun has 10 atk'

Hearthstone on Twitter:Klaxxi Amber-Weaver will receive the +5 health buff if your C'Thun has 10 attack or more anywhere.

Edit: while trying to find this, I had to wade through a bunch of tweets about ppl complaining that the Klaxxi follow Y'shaarj, not C'Thun.... Calm down now nerds

Though in a similar vein, it bothers me that Liadrin says something like 'my hammer will bring justice', but she's clearly wielding a sword

Haha that made me piss myself laughing.

Some interesting ones.. my guess is they're both very playable.

These cards are definitely good for Arena
