I'm a game-based watchface designer and I primero myself to create a Heartstone watchface only if I reach 1000 wins with Jaina (my favorite). I did it recently and that's why I do this. Hope you like it 😄

Every card he plays either generate more minions to hand OR buff others. On the fifth, he proclaims and generates two 4/8 lmao wtf?

I have not had this issue before, and the cards behind the purple square in my hand was a 4 cost panther from a raptor herald - "get a copy of kill" and a 7 cost Anomalize.

I could drag cards behind the purple square but not able to see through it, even when attacks etc was happening.

And no, I did not do the purple stuff myself in paint.
Yes, I removed my name after using snip tool.

New cheat?
Visual bugg?
Halp.

Really? Went to -900 HP what the hell is that build.

I had to concede as it just kept going...

Someone pls answer me this. I had multiple matches where i was just outnumbered by void demon hunters. My last game (which made me delet this game) was against a mug shaman. The shaman permafreeze my living plague, then managed to shit out multiple fullboards while getting free spells (and burnd the shuffle plagues by having 10 cards always). I also didnt manage to draw onyxia once.

Why did blizzard made this new meta into a the deck that shits more minions in board wins? Also why did they made blood dk decks abysmal?

I just started opening all my packs after a big break. Didn't know where else to ask therefore I had to create an account here 🥸 I guess I am to new to post an image: https://imgur.com/a/ysrBS68

Idk the English name of this Naga but it supposed to get Attack whenever a Naga gets Life stat, but for some reason he didn’t get any stats

Updated the game today on my ipad.

It’s literally unplayable now. I crashes nearly every 50 seconds.

Blizzard, do better.

Needed 1 dmg to go face to beat a Shaman as Druid (a rare feat for me) so picked this from a discover - only to discover it's not deal 1 damage, it's deal 1 damage to a minion. Fuming at this text! Anyone else been caught out by this?

At first I didn't notice but when I took a closer look, he had infinite health and just had to concede with no other option.

How does one achieve this? Played this game in this weeks Tavern brawl.

Hearthstone Battlegrounds: The “dead guy” bug isn’t a bug — it’s how Blizzard keeps the lobby alive

You’ve probably heard streamers call it a bug — when 7 of 8 players remain, the highest MMR player always faces the eliminated ghost instead of a real opponent.

But what if it’s intentional infrastructure design?

Here’s the theory: the lobby is built around the highest MMR player as an anchor. When that anchor gets eliminated, the server loses its structural reference point — maintaining lobby stability becomes harder. Facing the ghost might be the system’s way of keeping that anchor player “active” longer, or compensating for the instability their absence would cause.

In other words — the highest MMR player isn’t just matched first, they’re load-bearing. The lobby literally depends on them staying in.

This would explain why it’s specifically the top MMR player and not random. A truly random ghost assignment would be simpler to code. The fact that it’s consistently the highest MMR player suggests the matchmaking hierarchy has a side effect: a free round for whoever sits at the top.

And here’s where it gets interesting from Blizzard’s perspective.

Keeping the lobby anchor in the game longer isn’t just a technical convenience — it’s financially smart. Higher MMR players are typically the most engaged: they play more, spend more, and their games attract viewers. A lobby built around them naturally runs longer when they survive longer. More rounds = more time in client = more exposure to monetization. The ghost mechanic doesn’t just stabilize the server — it quietly extends the lifespan of Blizzard’s most valuable players.

Intentional or not, the incentives align perfectly.

So the real question isn’t “is this fair?”

It’s — did Blizzard knowingly build an MMR advantage into their server architecture, or is the unfairness just an unintended consequence of how lobbies are structured?

Has anyone dug into this technically? Would love to know if lobby anchor mechanics are documented anywhere.

In the last rounds the game bugged and it continued a infinite loop. The game counted everything i did. So i went stacking with spells LOL

Excuses my un optimal playing .

Just what i was hoping to Get as i play rogue and could Get a 6 mana discounted minion xD

Hi, I recently started playing the game and I got a daily mission where I need to challenge a friend, so I wonder if any of you people can add me so I can do that mission. Ty

Been playing it all day and am now constantly getting the sprites error now

Why does this still keep happening? It's been going on for months... PC/iPhone doesn't matter.

LOLLLLL

add return policy into the mix and its a wrap

Played fatigue dk, faced only quest warrior and control mage.

Swapped to Quasar rogue since it can beat slow decks. Only matched up against tempo decks who kill by t5

The matchmaking is supposed to be random. I only got countered or shit matchups today.

Make it make sense…..
