Now she just need to find Channel and Fireball to conquer the world.
The discovery mechanic is very nice. It has a degree of luck, but it's lessened by allowing you to pick. It's different from killing a 4/3 Shredder and see a 4/4 Millhouse pop.
I don't think I could go back to Magic The Gathering now. Not because of the complexity, but because of the small quality of life things Hearthstone has like automatically tracking your life. A complex match of Hearthstone end up with a sea of tokens and cards scattered at a table, and don't mention the shuffle thing every time you searched for a card on your deck…
Also, Hearthstone is SO much cheaper than Magic it's not cool. I miss Magic art thou, to a point I could buy cards for the art alone.

I don't even remember when was the last time Dota 2 got a new hero. With a 100 strong roster I can't complain about variety, and perhaps balancing the current team is more important than adding more elements to the equation but new heroes are fun, even if some are discarded few days after release because they are too complicated.
And this saturday is the grand finals of the 1st Dota 2 Major, and while I joked about the delays I'm preeeetty sure there will be a new patch few weeks after the end of the tournament.
Hell, we may even get new heroes!
p.s. I know Pit Lord may be called Abyssal Underlord in Dota 2, but the hero is not released yet so I'm going with his Dota 1 name for now.
p.p.s. I also know Earth Spirit is released, but he isn't on Captain's Mode yet.

Reno Jackson is a new Hearthstone card which can heal you to full and crippled some decks but was specially harsh with a specific one: Face Hunter.
Face Hunter goes on a «all or nothing» rampage with disposable minions, weapons and burn spells. The plan is to kill you before your big guns come into play and was reasonably succesful, and since it was quick and cheap (money wise) it was the classic hated deck in the ladder.
On the same way it was frustating to lose with a hand full of mighty dragons, it's equally frustating to see all the damage you piled up disappear in a flash of light. This frustation, I believe, is what will make people stop playing Face Hunter.

I honestly want to know what the «nanny» would do there. By one side, maybe would be a different way for a fan to interact with the team, maybe bring them energy drink or some other small pranks… by other side, they (the organization of the event, not Team Secret) demanded (at first) a girl which is a bit… odd.
We will never know because they smartly called the whole stunt out.
No asian waifu for EE-sama this time.

I think Captain America is perfectly able to defeat Iron Man in a one-versus-one brawl, but not punching his metal helmet with his bare hands.
I like to believe Iron Man would have the upper hand, with all the protection and firepower his armor give, but if I learned something about comics is no armor beats plot armor.

Theorically, having a Malorne drop from WebSpinner would give more value (technically infinite value since the card go back to your deck) but a King Krush just has more, let say… «impact».
I think just having a Shredder drop from a Sky Golem is game winning enough… unless the Shredder drops a Doomsayer of course.

Honestly I think only Night Elves and perhaps the non-Forsaken races should be Hunters since the lore hints of a strong link with nature but the game starts with Dwarves being able to be Hunters which kinda throw it all by the window.
Inner Beast and other lore spells aside, Hunters in WoW are basically «dude who use ranged weapons» at this point, may as well open it to everybody.
