I'm not back on here for any other reason than to say this news is heartbreaking, and I talk about it on Episode 1476 of @WalktoWorkHS today. Also I tell you how you can win preorder bundles in that episode, so it's worth a listen! hearthstonecommute.libsyn.co…

brief update - my contract with blizzard has concluded. i'm hopeful to return, but i won't be available for hearthstone stuff after today thanks to all of you - the last couple of years have been so fulfilling and that's because of the team and the community

A bit of a thread about my podcast’s twitter account. The podcast is still going great (1390 episodes and counting!) and I plan to keep recording it for many years more. But no more tweeting when the episodes go up.

I've been creating this podcast for nearly 9 years, and I have posted on this account 3 times a week every week each time I publish an episode. I'm hoping I can continue recording 3 episodes a week for the next 9 years, too, and then some! but today is the last time I tweet it

Sometimes the wind blows us in directions we didn’t expect, like playing a sweet Discover Egg Hunter to Standard Legend, or posting about it in new places

Trying something new. If you know, you know.
Screenshot of a post from @blisterguy dot bee ess Kay why dot social (obscured for obvious reasons) saying : Wild Legend with XL Spell Damage Druid again. I tried a bunch of different stuff once Expanse was banned, but this is the one that worked. At least we had some new cards!

Well, this made me happy today, at least. The rest of the day can go and take a flying jump obviously.

Another 6 wins with a super sweet Starship Warlock deck I got from @RidiculousHat. He didn't have Ceaseless Expanse and neither do I, so I ran his SAFE Pilot tech. Nailed it! AAECAdTwBgLh6wbp7QYOyOsF8KkGlrMGnrMGnMEGi9wGnNwGodwGm90GiuIGyOQGyuQG3uYG7eoGAAA=

Shockingly easy 6-0 with a Nostalgia Shaman deck I found from Exotic Mango in the @CoinConcede Discord. I didn't have Ceaseless Expanse, so I ran Wish instead AAECAebwBgjHpAbUpQbmqQaBuAb8wAa6zgal0wbM4QYLhtQE5p4Gy58GqKcG66kGnLgG1sAG0dAGq EG0eQG7eYGAAED87MGx6QG9rMGx6QG7t4Gx6QGAAA=

Hey do you want a bundle but can't afford it?! Have you tried listening to @blizzlet ?! We're giving away a bundle in our most recent episode... Give it a listen and be prepared for the weirdest way to enter for a giveaway ever?

Nerfed four times, also got Hydration Station and Inventor Boom reworked, and is still in almost 80% of decks. Should Zilliax rotate early next Standard rotation?
