The new Blightfang spider legendary's flavor text is "THE GIANT ENEMY SPIDER!" so it's not a total bust

Why is unearthed raptor not undead and beast?

It should be Undead/Beast, just an oopsie on our end.

Oh, and I guess while I'm at it - the "flesh and blood" rule that we had that made cards like Unearthed Raptor not be a Beast is out the window now that Undead are here - just look at Ghostly Charger living his best Undead/Beast life!!

The designer who made that card on Custom Hearthstone works on the Initial Design team now. He copied from himself.

FWIW - The one Ziiiiik linked was not technically mine. The one I posted was a bit older than that one, I even commented on the later one haha. The person that made that one just had the same idea as I did without having seen my post :P

It's also not the first time he's done this! Can't come up with any new ideas smh my head. /s

We can't print a 1 mana 2/2 with upside, that's insane.

It's just a display issue, you still get the proper amount of XP.

(We're still working on solving it asap though.)

Its a good jab from Tyler. People dont have to act like its a life or death issue.

we need a 8 minion board card

We've also tried the opposite by removing minion slots. Turns out it's not fun at all.

Our first Location designs actually were this. They were on the board, but you had to play a minion into it to be able to use it.

Something like "Minions that die here trigger their Deathrattle twice." or "After you play a minion here, deal 1 damage to it and give it +2 Attack."

The biggest concern was UI. It was hard to see when a minion was in a Location, what Location it was, how much Durability it had left. We tested this in Alterac Valley, but couldn't find a good way of showing players what was going on.

Second attempt was in Nathria, but we made the card "double wide" so it took up 2 slots, but you could socket a minion into it. It solved a bunch of the UI issues, so things looked good, but after playtesting them (weeks), we realized we weren't getting any new design space. A lot of the cards could have just been minions with an aura effect. It didn't justify making it a new card type.

Where we ended up built us more space to create designs we couldn't have made before, w...

We're looking into this. It's proven very difficult to reproduce internally, but we're working on it.

It's one of my favorite shows. Had to find space for at least one reference!

Will be fixed in a future patch

/u/cgsongbird i can't believe you've done this

I will be moving to Europe and changing my name. There's no coming back from this.

It’s weird the 2s are between the 1s then. Like I would expect the hero power to bookend the numbers from the card. But fair enough.

It's actually a reference to the movie Clue! There's a bit at the end where they're trying to figure out how many bullets are left in a gun and they can't decide if it's 1+2+2+1 or 1+2+1+1.
