Super excited to sit down together with Hearthstone dev Cora! She's been on the team for a while and is going to answer some of my (and the community's) burning questions about Hearthstone Battlegrounds. Things like the design / balance philosophy, game animations, Diablo, the MMR system, the future of bg's, tournaments, new tribes... EVERYTHING!!

Let's talk about Armor & this new "Meta" (ep17)

Fri, 19 Nov 2021 13:00:00 +0000

This episode is pretty filled with talk about the new meta, playable compositions like Pirates, Quilboars and even Menagerie. A big tournament I'm playing in the 22nd (Twitch Rivals). The massive armor change and how good/bad it is for the game. Missing nerfs for heroes like Cookie and Sneed? Oh and that new hero Tamsin we got. Enjoy!

What's the current meta in Hearthstone Battlegrounds? What are the differences between average and high ranked players? How is esports / tournaments going? New community manager? Let's talk all about it!

The decline of Hearthstone... (ep15)

Wed, 29 Sep 2021 12:48:04 +0000

We have a really good meta right now! A very interesting dynamic in Hearthstone Battlegrounds, Mercenaries on the horizon, good nerfs... But yet the game doesn't seem to be heading into a good direction. Today's episode is definitely digging a bit deeper into issues that usually, and I'll take you behind the scenes of what it's like for a content creator (at least, my personal experience) in Hearthstone.

Welcome to the Tier 3 Meta + I'm leaving (ep 14)

Tue, 07 Sep 2021 14:57:02 +0000

This patch has evolved in a pretty weird meta where the best cards are on tier 2, 3 and 4. Midrange time?? I'll be discussing Leapfrogger, Doomsayer, Whelp Smuggler, nerfs, tribes, the meta, and me leaving for 2 weeks!

How this Update will change the Game + Rant (ep 13)

Tue, 31 Aug 2021 14:52:47 +0000

The new Hearthstone Battlegrounds Update (Patch 21.2) is the biggest one in the history of the game. 37 new units, all tribes reworked / revamped, 2 new heroes, a bunch on cards leaving, game mechanics like a damage cap being introduced... This refresh brings a lot to talk about so I did some meta theorycrafting! But there are still a lot of issues that need to be addressed but have been ignored for a while now like tokens, shudderwock, jandice.. Let's talk about it.

I'm scared for the future of Hearthstone Battlegrounds (ep 12)

Mon, 16 Aug 2021 16:02:00 +0000

Today's episode touches a lot of different topics. As always there's the meta, compositions, but also the many bugs popping up. I also want to talk about the future of Battlegrounds (from my perspective) and give some behind the scenes in content creation for Hearthstone. Things that really frustrate me and why I don't enjoy the game that much at the moment. Hope you enjoy the episode!

Discussing the Battlegrounds meta once again, and ending with a story on how I was able to grind to rank 4 EU for my challenge, but then quit.
