Hearthstone’s Jade Golem mechanic used to be a lot different

Designing new cards for digital card brawler like Hearthstone isn’t easy, and changes are bound to happen before the final release.

It turns out that the whole Jade Golem idea used to look a lot different. In its final form for December’s Mean Street of Gadgetzan expansion, certain cards for the Rogue, Shaman, and Druid summon a Jade Golem. The first Jade Golem is a 1/1 minion, but the second one would be 2/2, then 3/3, and so on. But it didn’t always work that.
