Greetings!

Patch 36.0.2 is a server-side hotfix patch, rolling out July 16. Please see below for the details.

Bug Fixes and Game Improvements

Hearthstone

  • Slagclaw no longer gets extra Kindred triggers when its Battlecry is doubled by effects like Mug’Zee.

  • Blooming Bulb from Cultivating Sprite can now correctly cast Prepare spells.

  • Judgment now resolves correctly when cast by a non-player (ie Asvedon, the Grandshield).

  • Captured Archmage now correctly activates after 4 deaths when triggered by another card, such as Endbringer Umbra.

  • Mug’Zee now properly checks cards in your starting hand when evaluating its Start of Game effect.

  • Mug’Zee’s Battlecry-doubling Hero Power no longer keeps its effect after your Hero Power is replaced.

  • Azalina Soulsever no longer copies the wrong player’s version of cards in mirror-match situations.

  • Lotus Troublemaker and Jade Guardians no longer count cards played using Health instead of Mana as cards played for 2 Mana.

  • Tiny Pal no longer gets a bonus from ammunition when first randomly equipped by another effect, such as Stadium Announcer.

  • Godfrey the Betrayer now properly shows both players the history tile for cards revealed by its Overdraw effect.

  • Mana Burn no longer incorrectly gives the opponent an extra Mana Crystal when played on the first turn while going first.

  • Noxious Bribe can now be played while your board is full.

No, because it was a bug you exploited, mugzee wasn’t intended to allow players to use any spells for the double battlecry HP which combined with the quest was insane

9

Slagclaw is now available in standard and Wild. :saluting_face:

Boo Hoo no it wasnt that insane, and if it would say “no spells in your deck when the Game Starts” it would have been correctly ….. all just a matter of perspective and / or even One Added Word added or removed to the cards effect description , L Patch L hearthstone

Will there be any balance changes at Battlegrounds? The game is so unbalanced. Some heroes are insanely strong while others aren’t good at all.

14

I don’t see anything about the bug with Jailbird and Wizened Truthseeker. Is that included in this patch, or will it be pushed to the next?

15

The wording on Mug’Zee suggests that it should work with the quest, so I crafted both cards specifically for that interaction. Now the interaction has been quietly removed, and I’m out of dust.

I wasn’t exploiting a bug. I was using the cards the way they appeared to be intended based on their wording. Shaman only really does three things in standard right now, and not noticing this interaction between two of them before release is insane.

Releasing the cards with this interaction and then removing it afterward without clear communication feels like a significant oversight on Blizzard’s part.

I’m extremely disappointed. I don’t have the resources to build another competitive deck, so I guess it’s back to Battlegrounds… or maybe it’s time to find a different game.

Quests are spells, Zee HP is only available if you have no spells, you exploited it

There is no case, be happy any wins you had weren’t reversed

18

Could you guys take a look at The Fins Beyond Time having shatter cards become united after its effect expiring? Played against a guy that got 3 Flight Maneuvers with their combined effect for “free” just because they got it on their starting hand and played the minion twice.

19

Can someone give me top 3 decks that will be good after nerf? New HS account, i can craft max 2 more legendaries, which deck should I focus?

20

Mug’Zee is top tier without the quest. Not sure what to tell you if you can’t compete with Mug’Zee alone.

21

The patch ruined the deck I was having fun since I came back to the game, the MUGZee Quest. Time to leave the game again :confused:

22

I think it’s up for debate whether the start of the game is before or after you draw your opening hand.

I assumed that Blizzard had done the due care in checking that two of the three main shaman archetypes worked as they intended before release.

As such, assuming such due care, I interpreted start of game to be after starting hands were determined. This was the sensible assumption, if you assume Blizzard is at all capable.

I think you are being rude and abrasive for no reason Raiden. This was a terrible miscommunication by the creator of Hearthstone, regardless of what was intended. Not refunding us and labelling us bug abusers is extremely unfair.
