Guys, do you think they even test/play their own game modes at all?
Did you try to play against infinite priest card generation or a druid?
What is that in the pay to play mode?
How is that even possible to exist at all? You can’t just give any single imbue card to a priest to recieve unlimited draw for the arena game…
One more time to be dissapointed with Hearthstone game.
Not sure what’s the basis on banning all imbue cards. I got 1 imbue card on a deck, and then I got 0 more offered.
If you were a better player maybe youd have been offered more.
Just play around it bro.
No they don’t test arena. They do not care about arena. If they would they would have banned ALL hero cards, not only 1. They would have re-banned cards, like the mage location that after the rotation they put it in again and forgot it. They would have rotated sets other than having 4 times in row the tourists set ,that half of the cards don’t work, so, they are out of the pool. They would have changed some of the neutral legendaries offered and a lot of other things. Also they would have communicated any kind of news for the new arena mode, they announced in November. AND, MAINLY, THEY WOULD NOT DELETE ARENA POSTS!
Just played a Mage draft where I took 5 out of the 7 imbue cards that were offered. This deck was able to generate a lot of armor as well. The deck managed to beat a barcoder, who had a better than Standard Protoss package to go with the hero.
He lost despite playing the hero on turn 7 and playing two Colossus which wiped boards and did over 50 damage to me.
Who’s idea was to allow imbue in Arena mode? Lol… they even created a special card for it too which can’t be obtained anywhere else only there… they not just allowed it but also buffed. Was it a bad idea?
I have no idea… never play Arena.
Don’t even try to start…
tbh infinite priest is a hit or miss, I’ve done some runs and have gotten games where I get consecutive insane pools or consecutive discovers that do nothing.
Absolutely agree totally broken. I mean, arena, as well as Hearthstone in general, was never about balance, but Imbue cards have zero fun to play against them or Themselves. It is boring as hell on both sides. Just infinite cycle of broken value
This is a interesting discussion if we ignore the rage.
Like…
Is anything in the game supposed to be static or to change.
Because when we talk about imbue in arena it is really easy to see the mode turning upside down due to the value oriented aspect of enhancing your hero power and that going against the very core of what basic arena play is about.
But on the other side of the coin. If the mode never changes then people will eventually get bored.
The new set is always in Arena otherwise it wouldn’t be worth the gold.
They definitely overdid it with the arena-only imbue cards, and then maybe even some more xD
First, they should remove those, as it’s obviously not making 3 classes consistent as much as it’s making them broken.
And afterwards, they can see if that was enough or Imbue cards should be offered less frequently or some other line. It’s hella fun to play, but when you’re losing against it, it becomes quite obvious that it’s unhealthy for the game as it’s polarizing it and making it too predictable and unfair.
