The main reason they left Auctioneer in is probably because they continue to have no idea how to design Rogue, at all, so miracle is all they've got. That new legendary, for example. Just keep buffing it in your head until it turns into something that would see play.... it's damn sure not as it is now. If it was TWO cards to revive it, I bet it still wouldn't be in that many decks. Four is just a waste of a deck slot. At best it's a weak win-more card right now and that's being generous.
I've tried every one of these various digital CCG games that've come out and most of them seem to develop/tweak stuff faster than HS. It's not that the other teams don't fuck shit up, it's that you don't have to wait 6 months to see some kind of half-hearted change or complete overcorrection. And there's STILL no real reason to ever play control so far, on the ladder (other games also suffer this problem but control decks are way more viable at least)

Right now I log on, look at the standard decks, hate all of them, look at the wild decks and shrug, and then close the client or play arena. Pretty much same as the end of every expansion cycle.
Next expansion dunno, Kazakus quest priest will definately be a thing, that's about all I can tell right now.

As far as popularity/staleness of the game, whoever said accessibility via mobile (tablet/phone) was right on the money. That is literally the only time I play HS anymore but I still put a decent amount of time into it since I always have my phone and if there is any sort of down time during the day (even just 10-15 mins), I'm playing it to pass time. I'll make the argument that the mobile version is what has kept HS alive else it probably would be pretty dead by now.

I would have played mobile more if HS didn't aggressively eat your battery.

I feel like my tablet holds up pretty well. I removed it from my phone though due to disk space.

It drains my 10" tablet pretty fast. The 7" holds up a lot longer.
I think the game is more popular with causal PC gamers in general than more hardcore people give credit. Its likely got a huge playerbase that doesn't ever read forums or anything. You know how you get to like some halfass feeling shit like rank 7 and it tells you that you're in the top 4% or some shit? If that's true then how many people must be constantly dicking around at ranks 20 to 15? Its not like it ever takes long to get a match or feels like you're playing a limited pool of opponents. They obviously have good numbers, and you could make the case that cheap quick decks like pirates actually help keep those numbers overall.

Trying to play HS on my phone (Nexus 6 something) was terrible. It took several minutes to get from launching to into a game and everything was super unresponsive, on top of the battery issues. I suspect on tablets it's fine but the phone app is clearly awful. I've never had any other mobile game use battery that fast or load that slow, including FFT, Shadowverse, um, and a ton of other stuff really, I play on my phone a lot
I'd be curious what HS numbers actually were. I've never come across one of these F2P CCGs that didn't have really quick matchmaking times so it's really hard to base off of that I think.
