  • Arcane, Fel, Fire, Frost, Nature, Holy, and Shadow are the schools.
• Ranked Spells - Gain power as a match progresses. They grow in power at 5 and 10 mana.

Core Set

• Basic & Classic get replaced by 235 cards in the new Core Set.

• Some of the new mercenary heroes are going to be added to Battlegrounds.
• New minion types are coming!
• In Patch 20.2, Quilboar is a Battlegrounds-exclusive minion type that is being added.
• Quilboars will generate a resource and take advantage of it. They have not finalized all the details yet.

Duels

• More heroes are being added. You will not lose progress on your current heroes.

Book of Heroes

• Stories are still being told this year.
• Valeera is up next!

Book of Mercenaries

• Like the book of heroes, we'll be getting to learn more about the stories behind characters.
• This solo content will focus on the 10 mercenary heroes being added to Hearthstone.

Hearthstone Mercenaries

• A new game mode that takes lots of different elements of other games.
• They take elements of Roguelikes and Tactical RPGs.
• Your three chosen characters have different abilities and you want to use them to create power combos against your opponents.
• You'll progress through a map - combat and other interesting things to do.
• Progression in Mercenaries is permanent. You keep the stuff you've earned.
• If you fail to complete a level, you can come back and try it again.
• It does not use your collection at all, much like Battlegrounds.
• Hearthstone is becoming a platform for different types of card games. Mercenaries is just one type of game within Hearthstone.
• A lot of the content is single-player but there are multi-player parts. They are hoping for high-skill games against other players.
• The mode has less RNG than normal Hearthstone.
• Tirion Fordring is one of the new characters being added.
• The mode releases during Phase 1 of the Year of the Gryphon.

Das Core Set bekommt auch neue Karten:

 

Blizzcon started the biggest reveal season in the history of the game - not only Forged in the Barrens, the new Hearthstone expansion, will be released soon, but with the beginning of the Year of the Gryphon, we'll also receive a new and completely free Core set.

The Core set will replace the Evergreen set (Classic and Basic sets) and will be made of:

• 29 Brand new cards.
• Cards returning from wild such as Annoy-o-Tron and Tomb Pillager.
• Old cards that have been changed
  • Menagerie Warden will receive a 1 mana discount at the price of -1/-1 in stats.
  • Assassinate will cost 4 mana instead of 5.
• Basic and Classic cards that make sense to stay are going to hang around still. Fireball and Tirion Fordring confirmed.

Out of the 29 new cards, 3 have been revealed so far, and they're not trivial at all: Ysera, Malygos and Deathwing received reimagining in order to keep the lore fantasy of these characters around in Standard and to keep them up with the increase in power level that the game has gone through since its release in 2014. Note, these new cards we're going to showcase do not replace the older ones. The older cards will still be playable in Wild.

 

 

 

 

Hier schon mal ein paar Karten, die wir in Forged in the Barrens sehen werden:

 

 

Spell ist alles, was auf dem Stack ist, wenn also was mit Flashback aus dem Graveyard gecastet wird, oder eine ins Exil geschickte Adventure Karte aus dem Exil als Kreatur wieder gecastet wird, kannst du sie mit Venser wieder auf die Hand schicken. (EDIT: Und wie ich soeben erfahren habe, wird eine Karte mit Flashback damit trotzdem ins Exil geschickt)
Der Spell wird dann nicht verrechnet, das geht also auch gegen uncounterbare Spells.
Permanents sind nur Karten, die sich auf dem Spielfeld befinden, aber dazu zählen auch Tokens, die einfach aufhören zu existieren, wenn sie auf die Hand zurückgeschickt werden.

Blizzard has made a huge announcement today about the future of Hearthstone. We're getting a new Core set, Basic & Classic are moving to Wild, a new format is arriving that let's you play old Hearthstone, and more! Details down below.

Hearthstone's 2021 Rotation - The Legacy and Core Sets

Gestern auch mal auf der Seite gelandet:

https://www.cardmarket.com/de/Down

Wer kam auf die Idee, eine extra Adresse für ne Downtime zu machen? Refreshen hilft da obviously nichts, aber nachdem ich das "/Down" aus der Adresse entfernt hab, ging es sofort wieder. Mit dieser Seite ist einfach so viel falsch...

Ach, ich weiß nicht, ich fand die Szene schon ziemlich fetzig:

 

Oh, ist gar nicht aus Der Hobbit? Hoppla

Hat das eigentlich einen konkreten Grund, dass gerade Leeches ausgekauft wird außer es eine Crap-Rare ist und auf der RL steht?

 

Meine Theorie ist, weil gerade mit Fynn, the Fangbearer in Kaldheim die Poison Mechanik zurückkam. Dazu war noch Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider in dem Set. Könnte darauf hindeuten, dass es nächstes Jahr vielleicht wieder nach New Phyrexia geht, wo Infect eine größere Rolle spielen könnte. Mehr Infect -> mehr Leute, die Infect-Decks in Commander spielen -> mehr Leute, die Karten brauchen, die sie davor schützen. Also Leeches besser jetzt "günstig" kaufen, als in nem Jahr.

Ich hab mir auch eben 3 bestellt x'D

Nur dass Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider auch die Plus-Fähigkeiten von Planeswalkern bufft, was Doubling Season nicht tut. Aber ja, das war alles schon bekannt, seit der geleaked wurde x'D

Diablo ist kein MMO. Das MM steht für Massivly Multiplayer. Die 4 Spieler bei Diablo sind sicher keine "Masse".

 

Es ging mir eher um den Action-RPG Part, der wie Diablo ist. Das eben kombiniert mit MMO.

Sie haben es halt vor 3 Tagen geändert, aber da war der Schaden schon passiert.

Das Artwork auf Kaya the Inexorable wurde hier in Episode 1 verwendet, also weit vor ihren Äxten:

https://magic.wizard...lers-2021-01-07

Immer diese Grafikhuren @.@

Solange das Gameplay überzeugt, sollte die Grafik nur eine untergeordnete Rolle spielen. Besser, es ist mit gutem Gameplay für eine breitere Masse verfügbar als mit schlechtem Gameplay nur für die High-End Rechner und PSONE verfügbar zu sein.

Kayas Äxte wurden hier allerdings schon gezeigt:

https://magic.wizard...heim-2020-12-14

 

Kein Plan, wo sie die herhat, aber auf Kaldheim kämpft man nicht mit popeligen Dolchen, wenn man AXT 24 haben kann.

 

Beta im März. Hab Bock drauf!

Wish-Cycle, Karn und Mastermind's Acquisition wenn ich nichts vergessen hab

Zusätzlich zu den von dir genannten Karten gibt es noch:
Coax from the Blind Eternities, Fae of Wishes, Legion Angel (wie würde man den denn handhaben?), Research // Development, Ring of Ma'rûf, Spawnsire of Ulamog, neu in Kaldheim The Raven's Warning und noch Vivien, Arkbow Ranger.

Sind also schon einige.
Wishboards sind trotzdem cheap. Sie werden nicht von Mill oder anderen Effekten beeinflusst, anders als tutorbare Lösungen im Spiel, man kann sich die perfekte Karte für die Situation also noch einfacher heraussuchen. Würden Wishboards offiziell werden, wären Wish-Karten vermutlich auto-includes in jedem Deck und Deckbuilding würde noch mehr drunter leiden, weil alle nur noch Silver Bullets in ihren Wishboards spielen.
Bin ganz froh, wenn die weiterhin verboten bleiben.

Heute gab es gleich zwei Announcements:

 

Einmal für EDH:

 

 

2021 January Update

 

CARDS

 

No changes.

 

RULES

 

Clarified Rule 11.

 

Parts of abilities which bring other card(s) you own from outside the game into the game (such as Living Wish; Spawnsire of Ulamog; Karn, the Great Creator) do not function in Commander.

We’ve had some questions about Karn, the Great Creator’s -2 ability and whether the parts of it that don’t refer to outside the game work. They do, so we added a couple of words to remove any ambiguity from the rule. The goal is to set the default space for outside the game to empty and let playgroups choose amongst themselves if they want to fill it with anything.

 

ADMINISTRATIVE

Expansion of the Commander Advisory Group.

The Commander Advisory Group continues to be the best idea we’ve ever had.  The passionate and insightful advice we’ve gotten from them on a broad range of Commander-related topics has been invaluable.  We’d like more of that.  

To that end, we will be expanding the size of the CAG.  For now, we’re adding four people who represent some of the marvelous voices filling out the Commander chorus.  Jim LaPage (@JimTSF) is well known for his community-building and keen Magic mind.  Another sharp Magic brain, Rachel Weeks (@wachelreeks) is also co-host of The Commander Sphere podcast and graphic artist who has been a frequent guest on the Commander RC Twitch stream.  DeQuan Watson (@powrdragn) is a long-time Magic community advocate and activist who hosts the Color of Magic podcast.  US Army Major Greg Sablan (@gregorysablan), who we’ve been chatting with for more than a year now, represents the vast global military Commander community.  You can everyone’s full bios here.  We’re excited to have them on board and happy to have their help taking the format into the future. 

There’s still work to be done and room for a few more seats on the CAG.  We’re aware that we still have underrepresented demographics and locations.  You can expect our efforts to search for, find, and amplify great voices around the world to continue, both for CAG consideration and to further foster the values of our great Commander community.

Und einmal für (French) Duel Commander:

 

 

JANUARY 2021 RULES - BANNED/RESTRICTED UPDATE

A little more than two months have passed since the release of Commander Legends, Kaldheim is very (very) close and brings a little more snow to our northern hemisphere winter. The global health crisis continues to affect the organization of physical tournaments, especially Duel Commander. Even though 2021 starts with a slightly better promise than 2020, the world of Magic The Gathering is still affected. Commander Legends shook the decklists a lot, and the way we’re playing our format rarely changed that much in a quarter. According to our observations, a few adjustments were hence needed.

 

Changes:

Rules changes:

 

No changes.

 

Individual card changes:

• Esior, Wardwing Familiar is now banned as a commander.

• Jeska, Thrice Reborn is now banned as a commander.

• Fireblast is now legal.

 

Other changes:

 

No changes.

French Duel: 29.03.

Leviathan: 15.03.

 

 

Diskussionen... ach, ihr haltet euch doch eh nicht dran x.x
