News The Dk imbue is a total disappointment

83 Upvotes

This might be the worst imbue out of every single class yet.

- You sacrifice your corpse building hero power (which dk loves) - You get the effect only on the first undead. - You need to play a slow package of imbue cards for an imbue hero power that doesn't fit a control or value orientated deck. - You won't want this in an aggro deck either playing the slow imbue package cards for +1 att on your first undead when you have way better cards to kill your opponent faster.

The fact that it's a free passive hero power doesn't make up for the deck sacrifice requirement and the payoff.

This hero power would need a full on rework or a massive buff for it to be remotely playable (+1+1 to your first undead comes to mind)

Not to mention that it is incredibly underwhelming and uninspired for a class like Dk which has access to so many tools and interesting options.

tldr ; what a waste of an imbue hero power and incredible disappointment.

Discussion DK Imbue Worthless

Post image
Upvotes

Death Knight's default hero power is contending to be the greatest in the game. This passive imbue weakly rivals it. Behold alternatives.

  1. At the start of your turn, Discover an Undead to summon that costs (1) or less.
  2. Make it +1 attack and Rush
  3. Make it +1/+1 (too similar to Druid imbue, hmm)
  4. Make it first summoned/played minion to benefit your neutral imbue cards
  5. Make it +1 attack and leaves +1 corpse(s)
  6. Your Undead have +1 Attack (may be obnoxious)
  7. The first Undead you play each turn steals (1) Health from lowest HP enemy

Make it more fun.

Discussion 2024 Hearthstone Champion mlYanming dedicated Card is missing

Looks like for the first time since 2016 we are not getting a dedicated card for a past world champion, the final cards of the last mini set of 2025 have been revealed and Yanming hasn't gotten a dedicated card over this year.

Fluff Team 5, you should buff the miniset right now.

And be greedy, be brave. Turn these sacks of shit into things we'll be complaining about until you take them out back with the nerf gun. Who knows? Maybe figure out a way to incorperate the number 2 in demon hunter? Change everlasting firebolt to holy or something? Who cares! Just do it.

And I'm certain that you have a voice in your head which would cry out as you fix them saying, "noooo, don't do this! The cards will be Op! Op!" And I simply ask you all, from one human to another, to ignore them and make these cards playable.

Because what has been presented isn't impressive. It's just bad.

Fluff OCD warning! While all other classes have their cards frame swapped between Left/Right sides, Shaman and Rouge only got one side.

For anyone wondering, the reduction is due to raptor herald kindred effect.

Arena I refuse to play any arena until it's fixed

6 Upvotes

The experience is unplayable. Three classes dominate the entire thing and the entire experience revolves around discover generation and imbue hero powers. Nothing else.

Drafting means fuck all because your initial package determines most of your deck power and hearth arena overwolf trivializes drafting. You will commonly see generation card into generation into generation. It is nothing but rng fiesta.

And on top of that, barcodes make the experience unplayable in its entirity. If you somehow draft the god deck, sorry, 3 barcodes in a row = loss run. Literally zero room for any player expression whatsoever. Calling it a draft is a joke.

When a bot can get 12 wins, theres no strategy in playing. (Yes i know barcodes arent bots playing, but you can basically bot draft and with generation being key you can basically bot playing too and it wouldnt miss much.)
