Discovered soon after release, Miracle Rogue would become one of the most versatile decks in the game’s history. Combining the ability to draw most of the deck and set up ridiculous one-turn KOs, this deck won many tournaments in the hands of players such as Forsen. However, as Hearthstone continued to evolve, powercreep and nerfing many key cards meant Miracle Rogue could barely keep up with competition before falling out of the meta....
The inclusion of the first new class since Hearthstone’s launch has big implications for the shape of future gameplay.

On Monday, the Steelers announced that they had sold a new stadium rights naming deal that wouldn’t go to Heinz. Instead, it went to a Michigan-based insurance company Acrisure. As such, Heinz Field will now become Acrisure Stadium. That left many Pittsburgh supporters who liked the Heinz Field name upset. Some players even weighed in, including legendary Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. Many wondered why Heinz didn’t renew its sponsorship with the Steelers and keep its name in place....

Increasingly, physicians worry that those habits will turn out to be sedentary ones. Babies need plenty of time on their bellies to strengthen muscles for rolling over and crawling. But with the AAP telling parents to put babies to sleep on their backs to prevent SIDS, and with multitasking caregivers keeping kids in strollers and car seats while they run errands or take phone calls, babies are too sedentary. “Our lives are busier, and everybody seems to feel pinched for time,” says pediatrician Stephen Rice, chairman of the health and science policy committee for the American College of Sports Medicine....

Your diastolic pressure, the second number, represents how much pressure is exerted between beats when the heart is at rest....
On Tuesday, Australian firefighters continued battling wildfires across the country that have been raging since September. The wildfires, fueled by drought-stricken vegetation acting as timber, have killed more than 20 people and could claim the lives of a billion animals, potentially wiping out entire species of plants and animals. Chris Dickman, an ecologist at the University of Sydney, originally estimated 480 million mammals, birds and reptiles could be impacted by the fires....
Blizzard has also shown that it understands card games are constantly evolving, as the developer has been quick to step in and make serious changes to Hearthstone when it feels the game’s balance is being threatened by an over-performing deck. That hasn’t changed now that Hearthstone is approaching its third year since open beta, as Blizzard announced earlier this week that some major nerfs are coming to some of the game’s most popular - and arguably broken - cards....
