Completing the Journey (Journey to Un’Goro Review Part 2) - Episode 91
Tuesday Apr 18, 2017
Tuesday Apr 18, 2017
News Chat
- Community Reaction to Un’Goro
- Lots of decks, lots of craziness, lots of fun
- Lots of disappointment (pack openings)
- Lots of wanting to hear from the devs
- http://kotaku.com/ungoro-expansion-makes-hearthstone-more-random-probabl-1794231571
- IDEA: Would love to see a Tavern Brawl that rewards a Quest card of your choice (or 1600 dust if you have them all)
- Everyone got very excited about quest cards
- With more legendaries than ever before, it’s hard to get it all, or even guarantee 1 or 2
- Makes budget decks more important than ever (Zoo and…?)
- The Art of Hearthstone coffee table book announced: http://hearthstone.blizzpro.com/2017/04/15/available-for-pre-order-the-art-of-hearthstone-book/
