Should Blizzard Balance Cards in WILD? - Hearthstone - Duration: 9:38.
Whats up guys its me Jeremy!
As many of you guys might know, not too long ago Blizzard made the decision to separate
the constructed formats into standard and wild.
Now they made it pretty clear that standard was the main competitive format, and the one
they wanna support, and that definitely makes sense, since it helps Blizzard sell new cards
and keeps ladder and tournaments fresh and balanced.
Still though the fact that wild is in the game means that it's definitely a format
that people play and enjoy, which brings us to the question: should Blizzard patch or
balance wild if the format gets out of control?
While the answer might seem like an obvious "yes" there's definitely arguments and
merits for both sides so let's go over some of those!
So first let's talk a little bit about what wild represents as a format.
It's actually pretty easy to compare wild to something like vintage in magic the gathering,
since both are formats where all cards in the game are allowed and both serve two basic
purposes.
They let players who got into the game early still enjoy playing with some of the cards
they got to play with before, and they let players looking to play with really powerful
cards do that.
The obvious difference is that Magic's been around forever and so their oldest format
has built a huge card base, whereas in hearthstone wild isn't insanely more broken compared
to standard, but logically speaking as more and more hearthstone expansions come out,
wild decks will get better and better, since access to more cards will allow for stronger
decks, so it's pretty safe to say that the power level difference between standard and
wild will keep growing until wild is a pretty broken format while standard remains about
the same.
So basically wild will eventually get more and more powerful, until the point where one
or a few decks are ridiculously strong and everything else becomes pretty much unplayable.
So getting more into patches and balance, Blizzard actually can balance wild both directly
and indirectly.
One fairly easy way to balance it indirectly is simply to release new cards that are really
strong in the decks in wild that are too weak, or release cards that counter existing really
strong decks.
There are a few problems with this though.
First of all while just releasing strong cards might balance the format it doesn't actually
make it weaker, it just raises the strength of other decks and so makes the format even
more powerful.
Direct counters to cards also aren't a perfect solution, since tech cards can be unreliable
if you don't draw them, and wild tends to be a really fast format due to the power level.
The other problem of course, is that printing strong cards or really powerful tech cards
can warp standard, and obviously Blizzard would wanna avoid ruining their favored format
to balance their less favored one.
In fact it's actually the opposite, because any nerfs that happen in standard actually
end up affecting wild, while any nerfs that happen to cards only in wild have no effect
on standard.
Now some people might think that these nerfs are a good thing for wild, because hey nerfs
are nerfs and nerfs=balance right?
Well not exactly, because standard nerfs are based on the standard format, and format warping
cards in standard that need nerfs might not even be playable in wild.
Or maybe Blizzard nerfs a card that makes sense to nerf in standard, but that nerf completely
destroys the balance of wild.
This problem is actually unique to hearthstone and other electronic card games with multiple
formats, since paper card games can't actually change cards, they just ban them in certain
formats.
It will be really interesting to see how Blizzard actually deals with this if it becomes a problem,
but that's a different topic entirely.
So since balancing wild indirectly is riddled with problems, let's talk about the merits
and problems of Blizzard balancing wild directly, with buffs and nerfs to cards.
The merits of balancing wild are essentially the merits of balancing any card game directly.
The developers get to make changes that will balance out the game and make a lot of decks
viable creating a fun and diverse format.
It also means that Blizzard can make a lot riskier decisions when it comes to releasing
cards, since they can change them later.
It also means that Blizzard has to do less internal testing on the wild format, because
if they set a precedent for balancing it often, it won't matter if they let some crazy OP
deck slip through the cracks.
Now that all sounds great, but there are a few problems with this.
First of all wild is played vastly less than standard.
Almost all tournaments are played in the standard format, or some variation of it like BatStone
for example, and the majority of streamers and content creators play almost all standard.
Since there's much less of a drive for players to play the format competitively because there's
no tournaments or points for finishing well on ladder, a lot of people don't spend money
to build decks in wild.
Moreover, a lot of old school players already have all the cards they need to play wild,
and since they buy new cards for standard that they would have bought anyway, Blizzard
makes a lot less money off wild.
This essentially means that there's no incentive for them to devote as many resources to wild,
so they likely do a lot less testing on it, and probably don't care about balancing
it as much.
The other problem is that players might not even be happy if Blizzard did balance it a
lot.
People who want a fairly balanced meta can go play standard, which Blizzard at least
makes an effort to keep balanced, whereas people that want to play completely degenerate
decks go play Wild.
The Wild community generally likes completely broken things, and they would probably be
upset if it was changed a lot to make it less broken.
The final problem with balancing wild, is that Blizzard might not actually need to at
all!
We did talk about earlier how more and more cards will eventually lead to a few dominant
decks, but after a certain point, even more cards can actually open up the path to format
diversity.
Lets imagine that at some point far in the future there's a combo deck in wild that
kills on turn six pretty consistently, and it's the best deck in the format.
After ten expansions and a lot more cards, there's now three decks that kill on turn
six.
After ten more expansions, there's now four decks that kill on turn six, but three decks
that have a good way to stop that combo.
After 100 more expansions, there's decks that kill on turn 5, but also decks that are
fairly inconsistent and can kill on turn four, and also decks that lose to everything else
but can beat these combo decks.
Obviously these are pretty ridiculous expansions, but the general point is that while a certain
deck may be dominant for one expansion, the decks in wild only get better and better and
so the format will pretty much balance itself.
And it's pretty much to Blizzard's advantage to let it do so, since they get to devote
their resources to standard but keep the less played format moderately playable.
Sure there's probably a doomsday scenario eventually where enough expansions come out
that wild is so broken that whoever goes first wins every time, but not only is that period
in time ridiculously far away, but also Blizzard can just step in at that point and ban/nerf
a bunch of stuff, or maybe after that many expansions there'll be a couple different
formats with varying amounts of cards and they'll be ok with letting wild stay broken.
All in all, Blizzard definitely could balance wild a little from time to time, and most
players probably wouldn't mind too much, but the resources they have to put in versus
the actual benefit of balancing that format makes it seem unlikely that Blizzard will
balance wild at all.
Not to mention that as we get more cards in the hundreds and thousands, the format becomes
increasingly more difficult to balance, and Blizzard would have to devote more and more
time to it.
That's why we think that standard will be balanced fairly frequently or as needed, while
wild will generally be left untouched, but who knows anything could happen!
Those are some of our thoughts on balancing the wild format, what do you guys think?

Remnants of a Realm | Episode II | Steel Vigil, Elemental Resistance & Belts - Duration: 10:28.
Hey Eorzeans, I'm Lukile Bravestone, and welcome back to another episode of Remnants
of a Realm!
In the last episode we took a look at the Gelmorra Ruins in the Black Shroud, the shield
wielding mages, and the two handed Staffs, or staves – both words are acceptable.
A question I got a lot of in the comment section of that video was "Isn't Gelmorra Ruins
related to Palace of the Dead."
And yes, that is true.
However not in the way that you might think.
Gelmorra is a massive underground city, tunneling all around the Black Shroud - underground.
Palace of the Dead is entered via Issom-Har near Quarrymill in the South Shroud, through
a hole caused by the calamity.
You are in fact entering Gelmorra's residential district.
As I mentioned in the previous video, the Gelmorra Ruins was the only known structure
built on ground level, and what it's purpose was, will most likely never be known.
Okay, enough of that.
Let's move on to today's location!
Steel Vigil!
First of all, let me address the Haurchefant in the room.
Coerthas was not covered in snow in 1.0.
That could have been an episode in itself come to think of it.
Anyway, back in 1.0, Coerthas was massive.
It included the Coerthas Central Highlands, Coerthas Central Lowlands, Coerthas Eastern
Highlands, Coerthas Eastern Lowlands and Coerthas Western Highlands.
Apparently, Coerthas Western Lowlands does not exist.
Ishgard was placed on top of Coerthas Central Highlands, and was protected by four fortresses,
called "Vigils".
These were called Dusk Vigil in the West, Stone Vigil and Steel Vigil in the Center
and Dusk Vigil in the east.
These were all part of the Ishgardian defense perimeter, all of them having direct and clear
view of Ishgard and it's surroundings.
These vigils all looked the same, nothing distinguishing them from one another, and
they had no actual significance in the game.
It is obvious that these were just set dressings at the time, with a possible purpose planned
at a later stage, that would never come.
At least not in this incarnation of the game.
But our focus is on Steel Vigil.
Stone Vigil's lesser brother.
This was the second Vigil to be standing in the Central Highlands.
It's shape was that of all its brethren, but unlike it's brother Stone Vigil, it
was not easily accessible.
Unlike Stone Vigil which was easily seen from the Gates of Judgement, Steel Vigil was hidden
far up into the mountains.
If you wanted to visit Steel Vigil, for whatever reason, you had to traverse through rough
and dangerous terrain, with high level monsters just waiting to kill you.
Or you could use this aetherial gate via Camp Dragonhead.
Once you made it to Steel Vigil, you would soon find… nothing.
Nothing at all besides a building similar to the more accessible Stone Vigil.
Now after the Calamity, Coerthas changed.
The Dragonsong War went into high gear, and the Calamity disrupted the aetherial balance
in the region, causing endless snow to fall, covering Coerthas in a blanket of death and
cold.
Sometime during the 5 years between the Calamity and now, House Haillenarte, the caretakers
of Steel Vigil, abandoned the fortress, leaving it vulnerable to the Dravanians attack.
Soon after it was abandoned, Steel Vigil fell – hard.
Massive damage to the structure caused it to cave in on itself, and the Vigil was destroyed
beyond repair.
Soon after, its brother, Stone Vigil would also fall in the hands of the Dravanians,
albeit with less damage to the actual structure.
Steel Vigil, although not having a plot function, it is still used as a location for FATEs and
as a backdrop for certain fights and quests.
It is interesting to look at the architecture of the 2.0 Steel Vigil compared to 1.0 Steel
Vigil.
As you will see in pretty much every episode of this series, 1.0's structures were usually
smaller in scale and with less detail.
It also seems that the vigils have different designs from one another, compared to the
copy/paste design we saw in 1.0.
These could have been improvements made as the Dragonsong War intensified, but it does
seem a bit unlikely that Dusk Vigil went from this to this in less than 5 years before it
too, got abandoned and fell.
It is also intriguing to remember that there is still one vigil we haven't heard from
since 1.0 – Dawn Vigil.
Will we ever return there?
So that was Steel Vigil and it's brothers.
Now let's move on to a nice little leftover from 1.0 still present in 2.0.
Elemental Resistance.
In 1.0, elemental resistance was a confusing, but powerful stat, if properly utilized.
Already at the character creation screen you were presented with an element wheel.
Your clan would decide your starting elemental attributes.
Each element had a value that corresponded with your character's resistance.
They were: Fire, Ice, Wind, Earth, Lightning and Water.
In 1.0, gear often had elemental resistance, and it was often recommended by a lot of statics
at the time to stock up on certain elemental resistance gear before heading into farming
or raids to reduce damage taken.
Although the percentage of resistance was hard to figure out (even today, people are
arguing what actual difference it makes) it seemed to range from around 10% - 20% maximum
resistance, which is a substantial amount if you count in really hard hitting bosses.
However it is important to note, that this elemental resistance went both ways, forcing
players to strategize over what spells and attacks to use, to further damage the targets.
And just like attribute points you would get from leveling your class level, you would
get elemental points as well, to further build up your elemental resistance.
It seems the calamity's elemental imbalance caused this to lose it's effect though,
as elemental resistance is nothing but an insignificant panel in your character window.
During the development of 2.0, the dev team realized that elemental resistance would cause
massive imbalance in the new battle system and class/jobb overhaul they had in mind.
Especially considering the Black Mage now having two aspected spells, Blizzard and Fire.
The easy fix was to make the elemental resistance stats irrelevant, lowering the potency of
these stats to insignificant levels.
In the character creation screen the elemental stats will still show up, but your base resistance
is set to 50, and the bonus points are received upon selecting your patron deity.
And the extra stats you get are… well, miniscule.
Today, they are nothing but remnants of a time past.
Left in the character stats window because they either didn't have time, or because
they maybe wanted to make them relevant at some stage, but never went forward with it.
Whatever their reasons may have been, the stats are no longer relevant.
Even if you meld elemental materia to your gear in every single slot, the difference
it makes on your damage taken is small.
Was it a good idea to remove this?
Let me know in the comments.
Now let's get to the feature that's no longer in the game.
A highly requested feature: Belts!
And yes, I hear you, we have belts, but again – visually the belts you have equipped is
most likely not represented on your gear.
When you equip a belt, nothing happens to your gear, it just remains the way it was
before you equipped the belt.
Well let's wind the clock back to 1.0, and hey presto – belts are actually visible
on your character.
Taken for granted in 1.0, this feature made it possible to mix and match gear to make
them look unique and pretty.
Or ugly, depending on the gear.
This system was just "there" and no one really gave it much thought.
But it was during the alpha of 2.0 things started to look different.
In 1.0, all starting gear was based on your starting class, and the gear was literally
just a weathered version of gear you could obtain in the game.
In 2.0 they changed this to be different for each race and gender, so Lalafells, Roegadyns,
Elezen, Miqo'tes and Hyurs got their own unique looking starting gear.
And would you look at that!
This gear had the belt already on the gear, and equipping different belts did not change
this.
The reason they did this was apparently to ensure the designers' vision for the gear
would not be ruined by someone wearing belts that didn't fit… but this has always felt
like… pardon the strong language… bullcrap.
How does a different belt ruin your design vision more than… this – simply wearing
the wrong set of shoes or gloves or even chestpiece.
I think we all know the real culprit here……..
Go away, you're not welcome here!!
Shoo!
Even though the visible belts were removed, they were added onto the new gear, so your
gear now always comes with a belt attached to the chest piece, if it fits the design.
However, the 1.0 gear I mentioned earlier did not get that treatment.
So all the early gear from 1.0 has no belt around the waist.
This makes them look rather unfinished.
If you look closely at this gear, you can very clearly see the dents where the belt
was supposed to go around.
Ah.
Belts…
How I miss you.
Or do I?
I don't know anymore.
Anyway, that's it for this episode.
Thank you so much for watching.

How do you feel about the story of the Vigils?
Do you miss elemental resistance?
And do you want belts back?
