Dean "Iksar" AyalaNews Summary

No more disenchant bonuses for the nerfed cards! It's been long enough that Blizzard is disabling the 100% arcane dust return.

TerranceM made it to the finals at Dreamhack Austin and experienced a large amount of racism on Twitch, causing the Hearthstone community to rally behind him.

Dills talks about his experience competing at Dreamhack.

This was the first major tournament in Standard and the crew discusses what decks took over the meta.

On The Angry Chicken #150 the crew discuss DreamHack Austin and the first major post-Old Gods Hearthstone tournament that took place there. Garrett, Joce, and Dills talk about the many different types of decks seen at the tourney, playing in the tourney itself, and where the meta may go from here. Unfortunately an extreme level of bigotry in Twitch.tv's chat during the tournament is also a large topic this week, as much of the Hearthstone and gaming community discuss what should be done going forward.

Don't forget Garrett, Jocelyn, and Dills will all be doing a live recording of The Angry Chicken at CreateCon in Orlando, Florida on July 30th. For tickets and information check out http://CreateConvention.net.

Show Notes

Comment by HylarWhat are some ways Blizzard is researching/developing to promote a bigger/better community environment in Hearthstone? Ex. chat channels like in Heroes

Will Blizzard ever provide an "Armory" of sorts for your Hearthstone account so we can see our collection without having to be in the game? Or perhaps develop/open an API so that 3rd party sites (like Hearthhead) can let you sync your account/collection?Comment by Thrombin2The Joust mechanic never caught on. Ever thought about changing it so that it wins when it's greater or equal in cost rather than just greater? That might make it more playable.
