  • Here is the entire history of Hearthstone Battlegrounds in a nutshell! Including most of the big updates and patches, changes in the game, meta, cards, heroes, monetization.. I tried to make it as bite-sized as possible but let me know what things I might've missed that were worth including. Enjoy!

    As one of the OGs, watching this video gives me such a strong feeling of nostalgia. So many fun memories, and also some horrible memories. (*Ahem* Gentle Megasaur and Amalgadon.) Great summary!

    Jeesh, I remember a game where I played Tirion with a taunt comp with the Phalanx Commander. I'd never seen someone playing with that comp before and, obviously after, since both the hero and the card were removed. But I remember it was a wild game

    I didnt realize Amalgadon was added so late....I remember Pirates being added but didnt play with them a lot, and dont remember Arcane Cannon at ALL. But I remember Mug and Jug and playing with Mr. Bigglesworth....I know I got back into Hearthstone for a bit when Forged in the Barrens came out, which introced Qullboars, and remember playing them a lot in Battlegrounds because they were fun and strong. So that's probably the period I remember Amalgadon from, which was still years ago at this point, but it feels like such an OG minion in hindsight.

      Maybe for new players, but there is also a degree of "good enough" and "just right". As a new player in a game I will still have fun because I'm playing at my own MMR, now without such a system it would be way more oppressive

      @TheFluffyMuffins ปีที่แล้ว +2

      i actually enjoy the fact the meta gets shaken up and changed on a continuous basis like this.. or else i feel like it would get very dry after a while.. it would be doing the same comps game after game.. but this way.. those same comps become always ever changing.. but i also think the heros now have alot to do with wins.. and putting the +2 in the pass means its sort of p2w.. or pay for better luck with hero selection... not sure how to put it.. but it raises the chance of getting a good hero to choose from (even tho you could pick a bad hero because you like them or something) anyways thats my 2 cents xD much love
