I know right? DDR5 right now is insanity and I never thought I'd see scalping RAM. I'm hoping DDR5 is a good value buy once AM5 ships later next year because that's ultimately what platform I'd love to be on.
At this point they're just slapping Rush onto everything to turn it from a meme into a competitive card.
I'm worried that we might end up with a bit too much handbuffing synergy in paladin to the point where there's just not enough silence in the game to deal with it all.
I'm worried that with too many things having rush, and too much card draw in the game, it limits design choices because of the age old player whine "If It DoEsN'T hAvE aN iMmEdIaTe EfFeCt, It's NoT wOrTh PlAyInG"
I fear that, that mindset has caused HS to be what it is now. By reacting to players and metas that refuse to use "slow" cards, it's gotten to the point where if a card doesn't have value, rush, immediate impact, etc it's not worth playing.
Ohhh yeah, notepad.exe is my best friend when playing Satisfactory (and Factorio).
I'm really looking forward to the holiday update this year again so my present-shaped factory will turn on again and I can see those presents on the conveyer belts again. I'm curious what coffee stain will add to it - if they do. It was neat that last year they had some teaser new parts inside of the advent calendar.
Even with a high end rig though, damn does Satisfactory run like crap once stuff gets really big. There have been some good improvements, and glass certainly doesn't help things, but damn it I'm going to make my skyscrapers pretty! I can't wait to check out the recent update once things calm down around the holiday season. I hope it moves off experimental by then.
Looking at this card makes me regrett being Horde player. I've already knew that Vanndar will be better of the two but went with red flag. Should've gone blue this one time.
Tsk tsk. Shoulda gone with the sweeter card. :) Anything that enables control is definitely the 'more fun' of the two
I think this is a sleeper powerful card and people are vastly underestimating it.
Yes, your opponent can play around it in various ways since it's a deathrattle, but honestly the fact it has taunt and aoe damage alone and that it scales with buffs is insane.
Wonder what happens when there's a zero attack minion in hand like the eggs or Doomsayer for example. Would they instantly die from in hand? Or only when they hit the board? Will have to test it out. Aside from the question, this card won't see play, unless there's a super ultra mega meme deck that makes trolden.
Flavor is excellent. But it remains to be seen if this is going to be a great tempo card for mages, or just a dumpster fire of a card (no pun intended).
Anyone already tired of mages jumping around and casting Arcane Explosion? :D
I assume you are referring to TBC Classic/WoW Classic. In which case yes, I was always tired of the skill-less mages who ran around spamming arcane explosion then ice block
Unfortunately for this card, even a 5 mana 8/8 windfury that require you to have less than half your health gone may not reach far enough to swing the board for you. In most cases whenever you drop this low, you're either going to die the following turn, or you need to clear board to even stand a chance at survival, and this card having no taunt will not prevent your face from getting dead.
As a tempo option, its only fitting place is in a Vanndar deck, or zoolock, where half health is not impossible by turn 5.
If only this had lifesteal instead of windfury. Oh well, we can all dream cant we?
Paladin and Priest can easily give this lifesteal if below 15 health, and swing back to near full (the new paladin card and the priest apotheosis card.
I guess this would be really good in a big Warrior deck? I think you would want to play more than 1 minion, other wise all you get is what you already spent on this card.
This costs 0 if you play Frozen Buckler first. That's a 5 damage AoE for 2 mana. Sure it it's your side too, but I don't think that's ever been a huge problem.
Most expensive fel spells are Demonic Assault and The Dark Portal. Still, that's a 3/7 taunt for 2 mana. Can't complain. I'm not sure that makes for a good handlock, though.
Playing this twice should clear almost any board, but what does Warlock have for mana cheating? Also were there any fel synergies printed? I don't feel like checking.
That's legit! Never played X-COM but I've always heard good things so a $5 buy sounds like a good time.
Definitely give it a try. I haven't played it in awhile but that's because I played it so much :P
I logged so many hours into this game. I'm actually surprised/dissapointed they have not released XCOM3 yet...(Chimera Squad was ok, but 1) not as much fun IMO and 2) felt like an alternate universe/timeline scenario.)
On a unrelated note: I noticed how there's a lack of graphics cards in the above list for PC hardware. :D (I jest, I know that graphics cards are and have been for the last year or two bought and scalped and therefore are just a hard commodity to get in general...)

New Neutral Minion - Grimtotem Bounty Hunter
Hah. I laughed out loud.
New Warrior Minion - Captain Galvangar
Fireball is a better charge though.
New Warrior Minion - Captain Galvangar
Don't forget Mr. Smite
New Neutral Minion - Reflecto Engineer

New Neutral Minion - Spammy Arcanist

New Neutral Minion - Lokholar, the Ice Lord
Paladin and Priest can easily give this lifesteal if below 15 health, and swing back to near full (the new paladin card and the priest apotheosis card.
New Rogue Weapon - The Lobotomizer
Decent in arena, but otherwise filler.
New Warrior Minion - Glory Chaser
Are you going to be running enough taunt minions to make this worth a deck slot or 2? I know Sword Eater is very popular.
New Warrior Minion - Axe Berserker
Well, I think I've said before that I don't think it's that hard to find 3 health targets.
New Warrior Spell - Iceblood Garrison
3 Whirlwinds for the price of 1.5!
New Warrior Spell - To the Front!
I guess this would be really good in a big Warrior deck? I think you would want to play more than 1 minion, other wise all you get is what you already spent on this card.

New Priest Spell - Gift of the Naaru
APM Priest? Auctioneer, 2 mana reductions for spells, this + turn heal into dmg? It was quite strong before FitB came out.
Edit: In Wild.
New Warlock Minion - Grave Defiler
I could go through the fel cards and try to guess what you might want to copy with this, but I'm just going to be lazy instead.
New Warlock Minion - Felwalker
Most expensive fel spells are Demonic Assault and The Dark Portal. Still, that's a 3/7 taunt for 2 mana. Can't complain. I'm not sure that makes for a good handlock, though.
New Warlock Spell - Seeds of Destruction
So a slightly stronger version of Dreadlich Tamsin's battlecry? I guess 2 of these and 1 of her will get you a lot of Dread Imps.
New Warlock Spell - Desecrated Graveyard
Sounds like a good zoo card. But what do I know?
New Warlock Spell - Full-Blown Evil
Playing this twice should clear almost any board, but what does Warlock have for mana cheating? Also were there any fel synergies printed? I don't feel like checking.
