Because the Hearthstone couldn't care less about art consistency.

Gladiator's Longbow is a crossbow and Stampeding Kodo is a clefthoof.

"the Hearthstone team"*
Malygos isn't Malygos, Mal'Ganis isn't Mal'Ganis, Fist of Jaraxxus doesn't depict Jaraxxus, Master of Disguise isn't a tauren.

I didn't notice or care. Master of disguise not being a tauren seems intentional though, since he's a master of disguise.

it's worth keeping in mind that commissioning art is not free, and given that they're likely correct that most people won't care, it doesn't seem unreasonable to use art they've already got instead of paying someone to make a whole new thing.

They could have just called the card Kalecgos instead of Malygos. Malygos might be more known overall, but at the same time, he's not the current Aspect of the Blue Dragonflight. He's also dead. I don't think the ability fits one of them any better in particular.

This is probably my favorite deck created so far. I don't feel like Hearthstone has the card pool yet to fully create a lot of decks around creative mechanical interactions, and I even get to win a couple of games at rank 15.
For anyone not clicking the link, it uses cards like Hungry Giant and Desert Camel to give your opponent creatures, then uses Unleash the Hounds and Mind Control Tech to take advantage of it. Then there's just a few early-game things to ensure you don't just die, and a N'Zoth because a lot of your things ended up having Deathrattle.
I should change Freezing Trap to Snake Trap, since it discourages trading.

I had the idea for deathlord and hungry dragon plus mct back when hungry dragon came out, i forgot about camel though so thats pretty neat.

Anyone have a good Pirate Warrior list? I have the basic deck down but there seems to be a number of different lists out there and I'm not sure which way to go

I am now down to only missing 15 epics and 10 legendaries from Old Gods. Have the rest of the sets.

I'm pretty sure this is how everyone got it.

Did anyone else get into the Elder Scrolls: Legends beta? I've been playing it a lot this week, and I like it.

It borrows a lot from hearthstone (basic gameplay, quests, arena), but has enough of its own mechanics to keep me interested (two battlefields, enchantment-like cards, the whole rune/prophecy system). I also grew up playing Morrowind, so there's a lot of nostalgia there.

infinity wars is probably the best card game out of all the card games

Kibler was promoting a game called Eternal which is hilarious because it's the most blatant attempt at Magic the Hearthstonening pretty much ever.

I mean there's nothing wrong with it, it's just got one original idea that I can think of.

its site does describe it as "the best of both worlds"

i think magic and hearthstone rely on different concepts to be interesting, trying to bring out the strengths of each might be a fools errand

a polished digital version of magic is a good idea though and that is INFINITY WARS ANIMATED TRADING CARD GAME

Is Eternal the thing LSV is working on?
It seemed neat-ish, but it had a lot of weird and off-putting core keywords.
