Demonxz95 - I can't stand Vanish, so you might lose a point from me there, but I also don't play many low-cost minions so it wouldn't bother me as much in practice.
anchorm4n - I care about board presence…a lot :( All of my decks seek to hit the board, so this could be pretty painful in my own experience. What about something like "Fire Combo: The next one you play this turn costs (1)." That way the other spell goes back to full cost; that would allow you to readjust the base spell more favorably, and mitigate a crazy Hot Streak turn.
Nirast - I'll be honest: I don't like either one. Healing Hail is an okay play on Healing Rain, but the flavor is very weird (you're being pelted with ice-rocks; why is it healing you?). Hail Storm is just Blizzard with extra steps. I'm not sure if either of them would find a home somewhere.
R - A reverse-Meteor that can also go face if you want it to? That sounds super good. I personally don't feel like Fire Mage needs more face-damage spells: it needs to be encouraged to actually use its board for once.
Wailor - Swift Assassin being connected to Poisons and thus gaining Poisonous is perfect flavor, so I would choose that one. The Scribe is wonky and redundant when we already have the simple-and-clean Lab Partner.
BasilAnguis - I like the version you posted in Discord, with the "Frost Combo: Gain 5 Armor." A nice connection to Ice Barrier, the bold text flows nicely, and you probably don't need the Prodigy to Freeze someone because you just played a Frost spell (and thus did it already).
AeroJulwin - It's okay. It's a little better than Blessing of Kings, but I don't know if it is worth running in one's deck.
Me0203 - The Soulmancer is naturally comboed with Soul Shear, but that's kind of it. The DH doesn't have many worthwhile Shadow spells; not like the Warlock does. While I like Soul Fragments more, the Voidmancer might be more viable overall.
They split apart the last couple of bundles. Too bad they didn't split up this one (for North America). I want Frost Fairy Jaina, but there is no way in hell I will abide that Rexxar abomination in my collection.
Interesting opinion but it's not one that I agree with.
Unbalance make it impossible to build a good deck due to the polarizing match up table.
For example the only way to counter Azir/Irelia during it's prime was to play aggro decks, these decks got farmed by Tresh/Nasus if you tried to build something to counter Tresh/Nasus then it would get farmed by Azir/Irelia, there was no way to build a deck that was good or even decent against both. And let's not get into Trundle/Lissandra who made any deck that couldn't win before turn 8 unplayable.
Finally you can't just base a deck power level based on win rate alone, Pirate Aggro always had a solid win rate due to how easy to play it is. You just play on curve and go face then finish your opponent with burn effects but if your early aggression get countered you might just well hit concede. Lee Sin/Zoe despite the the lower win rate is much better deck than pirate because of all the counter play it provides.
This is terrible news. Swizard has been a major presence in our lovely Out of Cards community, and I've had plenty of fun matches and in-game conversations with him. You will be greatly missed, my friend.
Even more distressing is that the state of the game could be so bad as to drive away dedicated players like Swiz. Personally, I've also been very frustrated with how many things have been handled recently, but the game is still enough fun for me that I'm sticking with it. I sincerely hope Blizzard's approach changes soon, so they stop alienating and discouraging their players.
Ladder experiences are driven by heroes and Villains. You as the deck brewer have something to prove you want to beat that meta deck into the ground everyone else says is so op, but what happens when there are no villains anymore.
Lor is a fascinating case study because it is essentially the most balanced digital card game in existence to the extent that they will never need to rotate cards and only live balance changes will effect potential deck performance outcomes.
Case and point, Pirate aggro! People stopped playing this deck largely out of boredom but it still puts up numbers I'm talking 57% percent winrates currently right now making it essentially one of the best decks in the game.
But it isn't a villain and it's isn't played enough to be worth counter brewing against and very little satisfaction comes from beating it.
Lee Sin by comparison is not an amazing deck hovering between 51 and 52 percent winrate but it's play patterns are dynamic enough to stick in the mind of the looser.
You are getting beaten 100% when Lee Sin kicks you down to 0. My point is for me personally I find myself playing LOR far more when there is essentially a boss deck to beat, and far less when people can run any midrange soup and win.
Don't pressure the devs to hotfix too fast in the future, enjoy each stage of the meta as it progresses, and let things breathe a bit...otherwise it's just gonna be Bilgewater for literally the next 10 years of this games life cycle.
Fallen hero is an interesting inclusion. Why not Amplified Snowflurry? Its basically another tour guide.
I think there's enough justification to swap Deep Freeze with Rune of the Archmage, which will likely improve your matchup against midrange decks that aren't paladin. Deep freeze doesn't curve into dawngrasp anyway.
I'd like to squeeze out one extra damage from hand for the HK. But I'll try Amplified as I see that all similiar deck lists contain it. But I don't think, that "Random BS, go!" is a better tactic than freezing enemies 1-3+ times.
@anchom4n Thank you, but this deck really seems to go more into the big direction
I found that Regis played a similar deck to mine recently. Haven't watched it yet. Maybe this gives me more inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixPf9CDcfbY
I didn’t know Swizard was leaving! We were exchanging ideas in game recently and he was always a fun talking partner while trying to come up with something dumb and new. Thank you for keeping the series going however, for those of us who just want to have some dumb fun in this game.
I had a card I liked, but because Imgur is currently broken, I can't post it. It is on the Discord though.
EDIT: Got it through!
Nonetheless, it's time for me to do my part and post my feedback.
Me0203
Shadowfin Soulmancer has one pretty huge problem: Chronological inconsistency. You have a card that uses Soul Fragments, a mechanic from a year before spell schools existed, and combining that with spell schools. There's simply no place in the game's life that this card could be placed. It can't be placed in Year of the Phoenix because spell schools didn't exist yet. It can't be placed before then because neither Demon Hunter nor Soul Fragments existed yet. And it can't be placed after because then you'll have a card that is unusable in Standard because there's no Soul Fragment cards in the format.
Virulent Voidmaster is definitely better. It's easier to use and it doesn't have the same chronological problem that Shadowfin Soulmancer does.
Linkblade91
I definitely think going with Arcane Owl (specifically the first version) is the better way to go over Nightmare Lord or Nightmare Servant. I fully understand what you're trying to do with the other two cards, but it'll be a very hard sell for the competition.
BasilAnguis
Kirin Tor Prodigy is cool, although the discrepancy in power on each of the effects is a little bit off-putting. The Fire Combo effect is just blatantly much weaker than the other two.
Equilibrium has really cool flavor, but unfortunately that flavor will overlap with BloodMefist's card from the last competition. It also doesn't do anything without the Combo effects.
AeroJulwin
Gonna agree with everyone else and say that I like this card. It's simple and it feels like a card that Blizzard would print. I can see it doing pretty well.
Wailor
"but none of them is particularly good"
I disagree. I like both of these cards. I say Swift Assassin is a little bit better since it's more to-the-point on how you're supposed to use it and it's quite flavorful, but both of them are solid cards.
R
If I'm reading this right, this appears to deal 4 damage to one minion and 8 damage to adjacent minions. And that seems extremely powerful to me.
Nirast
I definitely prefer Hail Storm. It seems like it does what you want it to do more of the time and it seems a bit weird for hail to heal you.
Anchorm4n
It seems fine. Hot Streak is going to make any Fire spell broken, and that's not really avoidable so it's best to not worry about that.
I must ask though. Is it intended to not have a spell school? If that's the case, then balance is a complete non-issue and the card is 100% fine as is.
Good to see this series is still around! Yes, I do think more refined lists are out there after seeing gameplay footage from Dane, but this version looks fun too! And more importantly Anka finally found a home. I think I'll give this a try.
Oh, and I'll have to tinker on a deck first, but I wouldn't mind contributing to this series at all.
late on this, but as someone who's played for a similar amount of time and is currently experiencing the same dissatisfaction with Blizzard's handling of the Wild format (not to mention their interesting workplace practices recently that have led to me going full free to play) I truly hope Blizzard will do something to help fix Wild soon. until that (hopefully) happens, enjoy your break! its been a joy reading your articles, and they've been my main reason for checking out the site every day, but regardless of whether or not you return to the game, thank you for the contributions you've made to the community nonetheless.
One place to start would be this collection on Reddit Competitive HS; in particular the "Building or Choosing a Deck" sub-section. You can also search that subreddit for deckbuilding guides and a few more should pop up.
To see applications in real time, you could try searching "Deck Doctor" on YouTube. Firebat used to upload the ones he did on stream and I learned a lot from them. It looks like one of the guys that posts decks here (FunkiMonki) still does them so that might be worth checking out.
Personally, I really enjoy the trial and error process so I typically start with a super greedy core and then slowly remove the weakest cards with on-curve answers to how I've been losing and/or more draw/tutors to get to my win condition(s).
I hope you have fun turning your deck building dreams into memes!
So Thijs is probably one of the first HS-millionaires, 500 000 from HS 250.000 for the Aston Martin and the revenue from Twitch and Youtube. I used to watch his stream, he is always positive and just chatting and enjoying the game.
I am also glad that Kibler returned since this is not an official tournament.
I must thank you once again, this time particularly for letting me hear Valeera the Nice's "Greetings (Mirror)" emote, which I'd probably not encounter otherwise. The "ugh, you're too much" shows she's just as sickened by her own saccharine act as we are, and is a beautiful complement to her attack voiceline ("No more Mrs Nice Elf") showing she's had enough of this job :P
I've actually got a little bit extra now, as one of the tournament admins was kind enough to share with us. ;) But yes, I wish we would've had that at our fingertips from the get go, would've made everything easier and much faster.
#Updated now with the full planned tournament schedule, player matches, pairings, and so on.
Not my best idea ever, but I've wanted to try my hands at a working Flame Leviathan for some time.
Feedback:
R
I like it. Nice idea!
Wailor
Solid effect and Christmas flavor! Nice one :)
AeroJulwin
Nice idea, but I think you need to add "card" after "duplicate". I like how this is both a strong tool for Control decks and hits the flavor on spot at the same time. Great work!
Im surprised that you managed to find the timeline for this thing. Cannot have been fun combing through his massive streams for this specific information.
Well, at least someone has done it so we don't have to :)
Bit late for my own party, but work has been busy for a few weeks now. Here's my idea:
I'm still undecided if it should be a Rare or an Epic and if it should cost 4 or 5 mana. The 5 Cost version would mean a Flamestrike and a free Fireball when you're at 7 Mana which seemed a bit too mediocre so I went with the 4 Cost version for now. What makes this really hard to balance though is Hot Streak. The most extreme scenario would basically be a Fireball and a free Flamestrike (Hot Streak into Fiery Lessons = 2 Mana) which might be okay since nobody cares about board presence anyway. I'm looking forward to your feedback!
linkblade91
I like the owl / wisdom flavor. Cost increase in Druid feels a bit off though. 4 stars for the Battlecry version. I don't like the Deathrattle iteration though, sorry.
Nirast
I was considering doing something similar to your second version with my card, but Mage already has too many AOE cards. Going down the Breath of the Infinite road is tempting for this comp, but overall I like your first version more right now, if only because I don't see a connection between a Fire combo and protecting your own minions. Are they building a camp fire to find shelter from the hail? Maybe you could go full Frost and make it a Frost Combo with a damage increase?
R
I'm sorry but I don't get the flavor of the first card. If you choose to go with this, there's a typo in "Corrupt" and you'll lose points if you don't add a second card for the corrupted version (which is nearly impossible because of the art). The Fire spell looks more interesting. I like that one.
Wailor
Very hard to decide because both are cool. The Rogue card is one of that simple but very cool designs, but the Mage minion has more potential as you've described yourself. My guess is that the Rogue one has a better chance to get high ratings because you know what you can expect from the card at the first glance.
BasilAnguis
Both are cool, but I agree that the Priest card is useless without the Combo activator so making it a minion might be a good alternative. That said, the Mage card looks super nice! Already my favorite concept so far, it just needs a little polish - basically what the others said: maybe only draw one card, freeze one enemy minion, or increase the cost.
AeroJulwin
Solid card, nothing to critizice here. Well done!
Me0203
The Murloc somehow doesn't appeal much to me. The Warlock card is much better, but as the others have already said, repeating the Battlecry isn't the most creative approach. I do like the suggestion to word it "Battlecry and Shadow Combo" though, that might help hiding the repetition a bit and is already established in the game.
Just some advice on Standard packs, seeing as we're getting 3 free packs from the quests. I started doing this "trick" since Standard packs were released and it's saved me on quite a few new packs from recent expansions.
Save your Standard packs for the next expansion once you're happy with your current standard collection. Same can be said with class packs that we get from Book of Mercs.
There's a specific breakpoint with opening packs where they have very little value. After 230 packs it's not worth it. See Bot Mathematician's video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdOmANK5A3o
