After the patch, if a card has a Poisonous, Lifesteal, or Overkill keyword at the moment it deals damage, that keyword effect will apply no matter what. As an example, imagine a Stubborn Gastropod attacks an Acolyte of Pain. Then when Acolyte of Pain triggers, it draws a Scroll of Wonder, which in turn casts Silence on the Stubborn Gastropod. Before this patch, the Stubborn Gastropod would not apply its Poisonous effect, and the Acolyte of Pain would live. After the patch, the Stubborn Gastropod will still apply Poisonous after being silenced and the Acolyte of Pain will die.

    * Players will be getting a new card, one week before the expansion* The Golden version of Zayle cannot be crafted or disenchanted, and will not come in card packs.  However, the normal version can be crafted, similar to promotional cards like E.T.C.* The expansions this year will be tied together and some events and tavern brawls will be linked to them.* There is no Hero tied to the Year of the Dragon, but there will be heroes this year.* There will be no new weapons for non-weapon classes in this expansion.* No new game modes are expected this year. The focus is on improving existing systems and doing unique events to shake up the meta.* Some info on the new deck completion system.* The way it works is we gather information from all the decks that are being played and we see how successful each card is in these decks. We look closely at what cards you own, and what cards you have already placed into the deck, and find the best archetype that fits those 2 criteria. We then finish out the deck with the strongest cards that you own for that deck archetype.* Sometimes a deck doesn’t fit into one of the many archetypes and in those cases we resort to a backup plan and give you the most powerful cards that you own in a good mana curve.* Hints for a new keyword : two, twins, double down, spell* Hint for new Hero/Heroes : shocked* New murloc minion called Sludge Slurper coming?* Team is continuing to look into ways to improve mobile performance. One way is exploring the option of removing sounds files for adventures you don’t own.* Expect more frequent team communication, such as articles, blog posts, AMAs, behind the scenes and hearthside chats.* They are looking at ways to best handle letting players obtain old card backs.* The team wants to have more decks that rely on cards in two different years to better shake things up when cards rotate.* They like the idea of achievements and tracking progress, and they’re adding similar things in the new solo content.* Combining collections across zones is a lot of work and not currently a priority.* The “Purple Rain” on the Karazhan board was a Prince homage.* Lots was learned from the last few solo contents.

    Miniature Warfare



    How it Works



    This Tavern Brawl is a cross between what we’re used to seeing for Heroic Brawls and bits of Arena.



    * You will pay an entry fee equal to an Arena run to take part in this Tavern Brawl.* Using cards in your own collection, you build a deck for the standard format.* The rules of Miniature Warfare apply – All minions in your deck become 1/1 that cost 1 mana.* Like Arena or a Heroic Brawl, once you lose 3 games in the Standard Brawliseum you are out.

    Shacknews spoke with Mike Donais about the upcoming changes to cards



    * Doomguard was replaced because of it’s powerful impact and they can replace it later with another card. * Druids are more about mana creation, not removal. That’s why Naturalize was moved out.* They did talk about removing Malygos, but decided against it again this year.* Mind Blast’s OTK potential is reduced by the rotation of Shadow Visions, however they are watching it.

(1st – 20 packs, 2nd 20, 3rd-4th, 15, 5-8 10, etc)* New Competitive Rules Announced* Specialist – Maindeck/Sideboard format* Players submit 3 decks from the same class* Players designate one deck as a primary deck, the other two as secondary and tertiary.* Secondary and teritary decks may have up to 5 cards different from the primary deck. Two duplicate cards in the primary deck list count as two cards. * Players must play game one of each match with their primary deck.* At the beginning of game two and onward, players may decide to keep playing their primary deck, or switch to either of the others.* Deck decisions for games two and three, are performed at the start of each game simultaneously and in secret from the opposing player.* All Masters Qualifier and Ranked Ladder Qualifier matches will be best-of-three. All matches at Masters Tour events will be best-of-three, with the exception of a best-of-five finals.* Comments from Reddit:



    I think this decision does three things:



    * Streamlines the viewing experience. As HS has become more and more control/combo orientated, Bof5 matches seem to drag longer than ever before. Especially relevant in the Swiss formats where you can’t move onto the next round until everyone is done. This may even give production people more of an opportunity to “jump around” within a broadcast as matches will be shorter. Allowing for more exposure to players or unique lineups.* This format “looks more like ladder”. That has always been the biggest complaint about the old Conquest system. They made people grind ladder to qualify in a tournament that was completely different from that experience. While ladder points don’t mean anything anymore to competitive HS, it’s still something that has relevance to experiment and try things out in.* Deckbuilding and deck choices are still relevant. Gone are the days of just jamming the top 3 VS decks and hoping for the best. By limiting a person to one class, they can either choose the current “best” class or they can choose a class that best counters that “best class”. Or they can even go off the board and pick a class that has a fighting chance against both “the best” and the “best counter” classes.

    Servant of Yogg-Saron Tryouts



    Help Yogg-Saron find a servant! Your deck is full of wannabes who cast a random spell at a random target when played.



    How it Works



    * Your deck is filled with random minions, simply choose your class and head into game.* The minions will be neutral or from your own class.* The random spell that is cast goes off before any Battlecry effects activate. Important to keep in mind!* If a minion is summoned to the field through card text, no random spell will be cast. It must be played from your hand.
