Hello everyone!
We’re curious: what do you consider Hearthstone’s most iconic card, and why?
Any card, from any set or era.
Over the years, Hearthstone has introduced thousands of cards (we currently have over 6 thousands of them in our Library), but some stand out long after we’ve played them. S…

This is a fair and honest question, but it’s better to keep these things unanswered (for now at least.) Mostly for 2 reasons - 1 to make sure players aren’t taking advantage of different minmax values. 2 it takes out the theorycrafting and building fun out of class advantages.

We missed communicating this to everyone (working on a deep dive communication now) but in short - the update is rolling out in different chunks at a time. Some things might change that aren’t super visible. Most visual changes should come in September.
