Trivia[]

  • Dr. Boom's Scheme's card art depicts Rise of ShadowsBlastmaster Boom.
  • Prior to final design, this card had the effect that Rise of ShadowsHagatha's Scheme currently does. In the final design process, the team were worried that Warrior's AoE toolkit was too effective.[1] At the same time, Shaman was struggling for AoE tools, so the effect was moved to that class and Dr. Boom's Scheme was reworked.[2] Dr. Boom's Scheme was playtested at 2 or 3 mana initially, but was increased to 4 to ensure it would only be played by fringe stall decks.[3][4] According to Dean Ayala, 4 mana was too much in retrospect and it could've been buffed to 3 or even 2.[5] However, he is still happy with the design capturing the "infinite" feel of scheme cards,[6] even if the gameplay negatives were too harsh in practice.[7]
