See Every Shadowverse: Tempest of the Gods Card
The next Shadowverse expansion, Tempest of the Gods, is going to be out very very soon, and after several weeks of card reveals (including eight of our own), we now have the full set.
It's a genuinely exciting collection, offering up some powerful new takes on existing mechanics like Bloodcraft's Vengeance and Shadowcraft's Necromancy. It also takes several classes in new directions - Forestcraft is being given control tools, for instance, while Runecraft players are being tempted to build their decks around Earth Sigils. It's also worth pointing out that this is the first expansion where every class has been given two new Legendaries, and those cards are typically geared towards powerful effects that must be built around.

X-Men 3 Director Says Rotten Tomatoes Hurt BvS
X-Men: The Last Stand director Brett Ratner believes Rotten Tomatoes is hurting the movie industry.
While speaking at the Sun Valley Film Festival last weekend (via Entertainment Weekly), Ratner called Rotten Tomatoes the "worst thing that we have in today’s movie culture." The filmmaker thinks having an aggregate score for films has diminished film criticism.
“It’s mind-blowing. It’s just insane, it’s hurting the business, it’s getting people to not see a movie," Ratner said.
Ratner's company RatPac Entertainment co-financed Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. In Ratner's view, even though Batman v Superman went on to gross nearly $900 million at the box office, its low Rotten Tomatoes score ultimately "put a cloud over a movie that was incredibly successful.”
