As part of the initiative of having a consistent schedule of content here on Hearthstone Players, we have decided to start a series based on what’s been happening in Hearthstone and on the Hearthstone Players website.
We noticed there are quite a large amount of readers who frequent our site every days, but because we push pretty much daily content, a lot of stuff gets pushed down relatively quick. To help alleviate this issue, we decided to start this series that sums up what has happened on HSP in the past week, as well as the general Hearthstone scene.
If there are certain topics/categories of news you’d like to see covered/included in this series, please do leave a comment to let us know about it. Without further ado, let’s get started!
Note: We did something similar back in June and shared it on Reddit. It was useful for a lot of readers, hence one of the reasons we started this series.
General Hearthstone
Ben Brode stated on Twitter there is currently no new classes being planned. (Source)
Hearthstone Meta
- Liquidhearth just updated their Power Ranks.
- Team Celestial came out with their own Meta Matchup Table! We translated the best we could. (Source)
- HSP rank the Meta decks a bit different – instead of giving each deck a hard rank, we separate it into 3 categories – making it much easier to view the meta at a glance. Check it out!
- Tempostorm’s Meta Snapshot #20.
- HSP’s Meta Check – a new series on HSP where the entire Team HSP share what they’ve been playing, the meta they faced and their recommendations and thoughts so far of the season.
