/r/hearthstone - Best of 2017 Contest

Posted: 03 Jan 2018 06:20 PM PST

It's already 2018... so finally here's the annual "Best of" contest! (meant for last year!)

But flop, what are these "Best of" shenanigans about?

"Best of" is an event done by many communities across Reddit, which spans over the year and collates the best/worst moments the subreddit has experienced, whilst making it into a contest! This is our 4th year we've been doing this. Here's a look at what the subreddit looked like roughly a year ago! (It's the closest to a full year I could get to, the bronze dragons were sleeping over christmas so I couldn't warp back to nearer 1 exact year).

Contest Details

We have 8 reddit gold credits to give away to category winners, with there being 7 categories to vote for in total. They are as follows;

  • Best post
  • Best comment
  • Best highlight
  • Best fanmade content
  • Best original fanart
  • Best released card of 2017
  • Most valuable contributor to /r/hearthstone

Voting, nominations and how winners are selected

Users will post their nominations by replying to the parent comment relating to the category that they want to enter in. All other comments made that are not inside a parent comment, not keeping general discussion to the relevant comment and all duplicate nominations will be removed.

To vote for a nomination, just upvote the comment that the nomination is on. Try and not resort to downvotes if you disagree with a nomination. We can't stop you but it'll be unfair if a "meme-lord" won most valuable contributor over someone that's genuinely went out of their own way to help the subreddit out.

Winners are selected simply on the highest number of upvotes. We'll post the winners in a seperate thread once we've picked all the winners out. Voting is hidden so we can keep vote brigading to a minimum.

Nominations and voting will close on the 17th of January 2018.
(2 weeks from now)

Prizing structure

  • Each winner of a category will receive 1 month of reddit gold.
  • The user nominated for "Most valuable contributor to /r/hearthstone" will also receive 1 month of reddit gold.

And that's it! Good luck to you all and here's to a happy 2018!

[spoiler HWC] Completely interactive 46 damage OTK

This brawl is an amazing trip down to memory lane

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 03:08 AM PST

Man did anyone else get overwhelmed with nostalgia playing this? Grim pratron, azure drake, shredder, Loatheb, (not you flamewanker), arcane blast, all the unnerfed cards...

I "grew up" with those cards as a player and I have so many memories (good and bad) tied to them, I feel like a younger me!

Best brawl to date

Anyone else feel like Hearthstone has become less a game and more a routine/chore?

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 04:21 AM PST

I've gone from loving Hearthstone at launch, to despising it for most of the last 2 years (a pretty common story I think) to now.. Not actually feeling any anger/resentment/disappointment with Team 5 anymore but just sort of being numb to it all and still "playing" the "game" (ie. doing daily quests and maybe another 15 mins of casual matches after that) but not actually taking it seriously at all or taking any genuine enjoyment out of it.

Legend doesn't really mean anything to me anymore other than a sign that I once had the time to autopilot a meta deck for an embarrassing amount of time one month - and the pro scene is kind of just a big meme?

I kinda feels a bit like those wrist trainers that you absentmindedly squeeze whilst doing something else. I'm not sure if that really constitutes a "game" anymore? I mean I certainly don't have anywhere near the same level of challenge and satisfaction that I get out of playing, for example, Rocket League or Street Fighter.

Anyone else feel this way?

Hello everyone! I suffer from a mild form of epilepsy and although the new hearthstone menu animations are cool, they are becoming unbearable for me. How do i remove them?

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 09:16 AM PST

Thank you in advance. I do not post much so i hope i didn't make a mistake.

Edit: At the advice of others in this sub i have sent in a ticket to Blizzard so hopefully they will take a look at this! Thanks again for the responses.

The r/hearthstone Dream Patch

Posted: 17 Jan 2018 01:57 PM PST

The culmination of the most popular suggestions, Blizzard finally listens and packs it into one giant patch! /s but its fun to think about

Economy

  • You now receive 15 gold the first time you log in each day.
  • You now receive 5 gold each time you win a game. This replaces the previous reward of 10 gold for winning 3 games.
  • Several 40 gold quests have been removed, or reworked to be 50 or 60 gold quests.
  • If you have 2 copies of the same Epic card, it will no longer appear in packs (unless you have 2 copies of all Epic cards from that set).
  • Card packs now also give 20 dust in addition to the cards opened.
  • In addition to the 50 packs from a new expansion, Preorder Bundles now also grant 1600 dust on the day of release.
  • Cards that are part of a rotated set will now be worth half dust, and also be craftable for half dust.
  • Packs from rotated sets are now purchaseable for half the normal gold cost. They will also only grant 10 dust.
  • At the start of each new Standard year, players will now be offered one of three options when they first log in:
  1. Selective Craftmaster: All of your cards remain. You will receive 0 dust immediately. The cards will be worth full dust.
  2. Look at my collection!: All of your cards remain. You will receive (half dust value of the rotating cards) dust immediately. The cards will be worth no dust.
  3. New is ALWAYS better!: All rotating cards will be destroyed. You will receive (full dust value of rotating cards) dust immediately.

The Evergreen Set

  • The basic set no longer exists in its current form. All of its cards have been added to a new set called "Core Cards".
  • There is a new set called "Evergreen". This set will contain all cards from Core, as well as select cards from Classic and possibly any other sets released before the current standard year started, as well as the Hall of Fame.
  • Players will have access to all of these cards for use in decks (2 copies for Common, Rare, and Epic cards, 1 copy of Legendary cards)
  • All cards in Evergreen are legal in standard, including any cards from non-standard sets
  • Cards selected for Evergreen from non-standard sets may be altered from their original text or stats
  • Cards that are part of Evergreen will appear twice in your collection (one entry for the Evergreen copies you have access to, one entry for the copies you own)
  • The Evergreen set will be updated at the start of each new Standard year

Deckbuilding Changes

  • When building a deck, you may choose to leave a deck at 28/30 cards and select up to 4 "Tech Cards" to put in a separate list.
  • At the start of each game, before the mulligan phase, you will be offered these 4 cards and must choose 2 of them to remove.
  • The two removed cards will not be a part of your deck in any way for any purpose (discovering, etc).
  • The other two will be added to your deck before it is shuffled for the mulligan.

Arena Changes

  • During an Arena draft, you now have 3 uses of a new "Reroll!" Button that appears below the cards selection. This lets you not choose any of the three offered cards and be shown a new selection. The new cards will always be of the same rarity of the last set.

UI and User Experience Changes

  • You can now access your current quest list from anywhere in the UI via the menu.
  • You may now drag decks to rearrange them in the deck list.
  • The number of packs you have opened will now be taken into account when matchmaking on newer accounts, until you reach a certain threshold of games played.
  • A new entry for "View Replay" is available under Solo Adventures. You may load any replay file to watch it play out from either perspective.
  • A new button at the bottom of the screen allows you to see a popup, detailing your most recent match. You may download the replay to save, share a replay code with a friend, or view your opponent's decklist from here.

Balance Changes

  • We remembered that we can buff cards too, so in future changes we may improve some notably weak cards from the basic sets.

Bugs

  • Reconnecting to games in progress: works better
  • Fixed bugs

So that feels good

DocPwn's Rogue vs tom60229's Druid was one of the most insane games I've ever seen

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 08:26 AM PST

I can't help but feel sorry for tom for that Army of the Dead and being 1 off lethal, but holy shit, so intense.

Anagrams & Kobolds & Catacombs

Posted: 17 Jan 2018 06:55 PM PST

Why can I play unnerfed cards, but can't use the Sorry emote on Tavern Brawl?

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 03:53 AM PST

They should really bring back the sorry emote for this Brawl, it's literally ruining my immersion :(

This World Championship hype pic is actually insane!!

Posted: 17 Jan 2018 06:40 PM PST

Blizzard please give us stats on how these Championship decks stacked up against each other once the Brawl ends

Posted: 17 Jan 2018 05:03 PM PST

It'd be fun to know real numbers on how each deck compared to another and lay rest whether Undertaker would beat Patron and etc!

I've got a bad feeling about this run

Posted: 17 Jan 2018 04:07 PM PST

The Spellstones that didn't work

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 06:48 AM PST

What the fuck just happened?

Posted: 17 Jan 2018 10:38 PM PST

Sweet, i got a gold Primordial Drake! Thanks HCT!

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 07:53 AM PST

Apparently the decks in this brawl span several nerfs. My opponent had a 5-cost Gadgetzan, while mine cost 6.

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 08:23 AM PST

2 cool new brawls in a row, keep it up blizzard

Posted: 17 Jan 2018 12:48 PM PST

Pretty much the title, let's hope this year is full of original Brawls instead of Encounter at the crossroads for the millionth time.
