We’ve made adjustments to the number of points given for first place. In the original system, you got 240 points for a first place on your first game, and 24 pts for a first place on your 150th (or later) game. Now, you will get 190 pts for a first place on your first game and 95 pts for a first place on your 150th (or later) game.

Wait wait wait wait.. Doesn't that imply that the points gained/lost are completely independent of your opponent's MMR? You just flat out get X amount of points per win and that's it? The one and only thing that matters is how many games you've played so far?

Am I missing something here?

Aww, I loved Lich. Hope she’s back at some point! Though clearly she was hard for a lot of players to figure out

I've played about 40 games, just got 1st place (in a game with 3 of the new heroes), and only got 67 points. /u/mdonais are the MMR changes rolled out yet?

The openness and straight-forward answers by /u/mdonais are absolutely blowing my mind right now. Most devs, and especially Blizzard, are always super vague when talking about upcoming changes. Mike lays out specific planned changes and when they'll be changing. It's so refreshing and very much appreciated. I played HS from closed beta up through Un'Goro, but haven't played in two years. Battlegrounds got me to reinstall the game. I can't wait to see how it evolves over the next few months.

What's actually going to happen is that the top of the leader boards will go from 6-7K to 9-10K, the average player's rank will remain generally the same, and people will complain that they broke the system instead of realizing they aren't as good as they thought.

Speaking of being polite and reasonable, could you guys please post or at least give an update on the arena leaderboards for the season that ended a month and a half ago (pre-halloween event)? Thank you!

Also, I LOVE battlegrounds. You guys knocked it out of the park on this one!

I think it's more because Battlegrounds came out and he was one of the main guys behind it.

I'm assuming this card was either cut because it made murlocs too strong (murlocs are the strongest tribe when they have access to a few megasaurs but they can't bridge the gap between early game and late game) or this is a card that will be added and will make murlocs too strong.

King Bagurgle was an epic card in an expansion of the WOW Trading Card Game.
