I really wanted to share this card. It's obviously inspired by Demon Companion, but with an increase to the stats instead. For this cost, it did feel right to let the player discover the Companion to play around the board, rather than just summoning a random one. I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts.

The removal option. I wanted the Huffer alternative to have Rush rather than Charge. The card is intended to be allround, and I didn't want there to be a go-to option.

The buffing option. It felt necessary to scale up the Attack buff. It could be used in a token deck just for this option, but still wouldn't be bad in other decks if you already have a few minions on the board.

The value/stalling option. Pretty straightforward. 

Wanted to add this as a bonus. Originally made these cards in an attempt to revisit spell Hunter for a custom expansion that I will never finish, because finding art takes forever and I don't even have a theme nor keyword for it yet.

Big Spell Mage by definition is slow and likely to die to hyper aggro. I think if you are to play such super off meta decks you should go all in rather than try to make a stitched up thing that loses its identity. Deck already has too many cheap spells, with your addition you'd have five 3 mana spells! 

If you want to cut anything I'd suggest Kalecgos and one Alextraza first. 

I don't know if you still have this issue, but if you type 'epic' or 'legendary' in the search bar, only those mercs show up

At mercenaries parties page, when I click on updated (trying to sort by new), the page throws an 500 error. As I see, the same happens when sorting by name.

6th November update: hsWhiteDelight's Reno Shaman to Diamond 5, ft. Double N'Zoth & Bird is the Word!

Both N'Zoths. The Bird. This deck is glorious! Thanks to hsWhiteDelight for the awesome list (https://twitter.com/hsWhiteDelight).

1 hour of footage, featuring my journey to diamond 5.

"Cheese" AKA Bug Abusing.

Same boat as bot users.

I just wanted to share the new #1 Europe deck, not because I'm gonna play it but it seems well positioned to punish all the curvestone decks out there right now aka all of them.

Overwhelm could be the answer that stops people from blindly developing small threats and asking hey what is my opponent doing...because there isn't enough of that going on  right now

Like even shadow isles a region that used to be defined by hold up vengeance to punish play, is now cycle into removal everytime all the time...we see that with a lot of decks where they are almost becoming "mobile friendly" autopilot nonsense.

Video right up there! :)

i cant get the Year of the dragon adventures: Galakrond, Tombs and Heist

Any idea why? the option to buy appears but clicking on it does nothing

As mentioned in the updated (and in depth) guide, I haven’t done much climbing yet this season.  However, I’m doing alright with the Hooktusk Smite combo deck.  Up to Platinum 5, and honestly I only really shoot for Diamond so I’m happy with how it’s doing!

Thanks as always for the highlight!

Had a really solid run with The Demon Seed, since it has very good synergy with Primal Power and some Warrior cards that interact with armor. Your Pirate deck does look super cool, so I'll be giving it a try for sure! 😀

Thanks for highlighting!

Deepwater Evoker is somewhat decent in the deck. Grey Sage Parrot on the other hand was the first card I wanted to cut. It has no purpose whatsoever.

is what I ended up with. It's slightly better, but still way too slow for this meta. Try at your own risk!

I had a problem with Jerry Rig Carpenter the other day.  I was playing the Uldum choose one quest in wild and had it completed.  I played the carpenter and the red target graphic came up.  I was confused so I aborted the action and returned it to my hand (something you shouldn't be able to do with that card).  I tried again and the game seemed insistent that I target something.  I could not target the enemy minions so I opted to target my own frozen damaged minion.  It did nothing, and after a small delay I got the 2 free cards from Hidden Oasis.  Weird bug!

Not sure if you did anything, but I can't reproduce the bug anymore. Previously, it occurred on every "fresh" opening of the website (and I didn't update the browser i use).

That's a very creative take! You make good points about the post and Deeprun Engineer. 

I wish I actually had all the cards to give it a spin for fun. No copies of Wildfire and Jandice Barov is MIA for me ever since the dust refund (I'm not sure about the epic watchpost, may be missing Varden Dawngrasp as well). Eh, just never enough dust to spare for everything...

Balancing may come into it, and I suppose it is akin to how HS has balancing made fundamentally easier by having truly distinct classes. I'm not sure Edwin being a human would be a problem, but fine. I was more bothered by it on philosophical grounds than anything else, so I won't make any arguments there.

The reason Gruul made it into the game is pretty obvious from his abilities and alternate artworks: he's the one character known to beat up dragons, without being a dragon himself. So he was the obvious choice for an anti-dragon tech merc. With only 2 dragon mercs around atm - one of which being super janky (Brightwing) - there's maybe not much need for that, but we do have to deal with dragons in Blackrock so he has his place in PvE too.

As for his race: I don't really see what the harm is in labeling him a gronn. It's obscurity would probably be less conspicuous than the blank race he has currently. I also foresee issues with Rexxar's half-orc label. It certainly true that's what he is, but he's a very different type of half-orc to Garona who should really be up for some draenai synergy too if/when she becomes a merc. Similarly, how long is it before an ogre appears, and Rexxar could be argued to be dual-race? I expect Blizz will just decide the orc half of their genetics is the important part, and ignore any ogre/draenai links, which would be very questionable philosophically.

Its likely more for balancing reasons than exclusion. All the tribe have some synergy with one another, and its probably more work if some have double tags. Its likely dangerous to set precedence too, which is why cookie is not pirate/murloc, although they did with Rexxar, being a half orc (though there's obviously no ogre synergy right now)

Gruul's case is unique because there's not a lot of famous Gronns to begin with, so there's not many reason to label him aside from flavor. Amazing that he's even in mercs, given that there's plenty more famous characters than him, and if not for that one treasure no one would probably even run him at all.

Yeah, I've had both of these issues. I'm waiting for them to announce a fix for the hunter one before I start on it again.

Meanwhile, the dormant part not working with the DH achievement really annoys me because without it, why would you ever want to have both minions survive? To me the main purposes of the card are to summon big deathrattles (of which you expect 1 dies), or cheese something with dormant minions. The achievement doesn't want you to do either of those.

• [Mercenaries] We’re aware that “Pirates” are not affected by Abilities that affect “Humans”—despite what they look like. This is intended and not a bug. Once you pick up the Pirate life, you leave your Human side behind!

But, Edwin is still a human... It's not just what he looks like, it's what he is. I thought they would handle the pirate + race issue by having the race be a hidden property (like the Alliance and Horde affiliations are). Oh well.

I guess its a similar philosophical problem to handling the undead. Sylvanas never really stopped being an elf, for example. Her soul may be fragmented (that apparently didn't stop Arthas counting as a human...) and her body may be dead and essentially just being worn by her like clothing, but everything she is is still elven.

Oh, and while I'm here, can we get some justice for Gruul? He's a gronn. They might as well label him as such even if they never use it for anything.

Yes: I get it as a pick in the usual selection screen at the beginning of each run.

Cool! Any list you've had particular success with?

I also had an issue where Flightmaster Dungar did not spawn a minion at all when he awoke in arena today when I chose the flight path for 1 turn.
