You have to hover over it to learn what it does? for what purpose?
The charm of the game is the feeling of a real card game, the way you move cards around, even in your hand, and you see your opponent moving his cards, like a real life card game.
Then comes those cards that have nothing in it? breaking the “immersion” of a card game and making annoying to get information about the card.
What hidden text do you mean?
A card with an illustration only. You have to hover the mouse over it to see it’s effects.
Can you give an example?
all minions are like that ion this game you have to hover over them to check their effects all text is removed when placed on the board
I’m not talking about minions on board.
It’s a type of card that have no space for a text, i’ve seen it on a version of Void Ray, but not all Void rays are like that.
There’s a Kobolt with a pickaxe that always seems to come in that version.

Right most card
You mean the signature cards.
There are some of them but I rarely see them myself. Some them are quite beautiful.
Ah. Yeah, those are just supposed to be shiny full-art cards.
Yes I tend to agree with this. If time in a turn was not an issue, I think hovering over and reading wouldn’t be bad.
But because they made time per turn one of the main reasons you can lose in this game (on a complex turn, even in a typical deck, you can easily run out of time) the fact that this just adds ontop of the issue highlights just how bad they have made teh UI.
The other egregious aspect of the UI are the forced animations, some of which can take seconds to resolve, when seconds is all you got to make a turn.
Agreed. They probably copied it from MtG’s Textless cards. Just make them prettier (not dysfunctional).
They’re supposed to be gameplay items, not cosmetics.
I don’t like using or playing against signature cards for the same reason. Wish they didn’t exist or could at least be disabled on your own end.
They just try to copy Snap card design as it is more appealing.
Yep, it’s quite unsettling at certain times. There should definetely be an option that you can turn them off. I mean people buy them for themselves, not for flexing to others.
whats the difference whenever you play a minion on the board their text disapears
There’s a time window where the card stays mid screen so you can read it.
When you see the same minions a million times you remember them by heart. When you see the random signature once a while it’s rather distracting having to constantly figure out what it is and what it does.
Funny enough when hearthstone launched devs constantly said that it’s really important to have card/art consistency for easy recognition and immediate understanding. Then they introduced signatures which are the polar opposite of that. But selling a fix pixels for 50bucks won out I guess.
The people who said that no longer work for Blizzard.
That doesn’t change the point or topic.
But it does explain the change in course, so therefore worthy of mention.
To whomst? They could at least make a combination of having bigger graphics but also show somehow also the information without hovering.
