Not a bad review in general, I guess, I’d recommend it re the miniset value etc.

Here I’m gonna quote something particular from it, although the point isn’t new:

Twist Update – A “new” Twist season launches in February by adding Un’goro to the mix, just like it was last time during Wonders seasons. After that, the Twist will “be on hiatus” again with more info coming in the future… Yeah. If that’s not a sign they gave up on it then I don’t know what is.

Well, I suppose… Besides, lemme underline: the mysterious February season that they promised has turned out to be the same as the previous iteration. Who would have thought…

Another point from the patch notes:

Event Hero skins not earned through the event will be available in the in-game Shop after the event ends.

If I were to hazard a guess, judging by previous experience, they might be available for ‘rune$tone$’ only — watch out.

A few other points which I’ve personally found interesting, I’ll leave them here for further reference:

Bob the bartender cannot be obtained

Lemme post an update on this. [Collection] Players who missed getting Bob the Bartender from the event can now get the normal version by going to the pack opening screen with a regular The Great Dark Beyond pack and get the golden version with a Golden The Great Dark Beyond pack.

[Hearthstone] Fixed an issue where certain Legacy cards were not included in the eligible Twist Wonders card pools. Dunno if this is related, but one might look into it… once the patch goes live, that is. By the way, I had another theory that they forgot to update some internal card pool (they do use such things sometimes, like the ‘Core reserve’ [1], for example) for eligible Twist cards in accordance with the Core set rotation (the previous iteration of ‘Wonders’ was in the Year of the W…

What else… Name changes for some cards — sounds interesting, if memory serves, it hasn’t happened for a long time… since some infamous and controversial updates like that [1], [2].

It took them months to nerf Ethereal Oracle and all they did was increase the cost by one mana. What a game changer
