Bard is often considered one of the worst Champs in LOR

And that reputation is in some respects well deserved and others not so much

Pros:

He levels easily

Cons:

Leveling doesn't really help you win games

So logically the best Bard decks are decks that can essentially win on their own and Bard is just a supporting piece along for the ride

Obvious synergies with cards like Siren song will be ignored we don't want to be that sweaty 

So what else we got?

Well Demacia basically

Using 6 mana cythtia to buff our full board of junk we don't care about and swing to place chimes deal dmg etc

And single combats allow us to "cash out" on our over stated units

Honestly Bard is probably fine for what he is

He doesn't win games he just gives you a little numbers boost to your midrange deck and thats all he needs to be

Meanwhile, Jagged Alliance 3 coming out on the 14th 😊😊

Nice, I like it. I agreed it is cute. I stumbled upon this informative article on Virginia's civil rights struggle that emphasises the strength of neighbourhood activity you can read this https://www.vabeach.com/virginia-beach-articles/the-civil-rights-movement-in-virginia-local-activism-and-national-impact/ article. For understanding the fight for equality and the long-lasting effects of this momentous movement, read this.

Got this from reddit:

Developer’s comment: Created by Ignis as the ultimate protector, Kologarn will defend Ulduar to his dying breath. Kologarn towers above other minions, grabbing any he attacks and placing them into your hand. Any minions Kologarn has placed in your hand will be returned when he dies, but if you play those minions before Kologarn dies they will be yours to keep on your side of the board. Carefully consider which minions you grab with Kologarn to maximize his power!

Is this a good card? Well...chances are good you'll never get to actually play that minion you stole so what you've essentially done is give your opponent another battlecry off the minion. Kinda like Sap, except your opponent has to arsed about getting rid of Kologarn

Not sure if its going to see much play, unless of course there's more consistent ways to keep the stolen minion like Shadowstep or finley.

While the wording is weird, I think the deathrattle seems correct - if you don't play the card(s) in time, they get taken from your hand and put into your opponent's. So unless you mana cheat this guy somehow, you can't kill a big guy and play it on the same turn, and you risk giving your opponent the card back if they can kill Kologarn.

I don't think you have to kill the minion in order to get it to your hand. If wording is true, attacking will be enough. It doesn't say, "whenever this attacks and kills" like;

There is an Undead minion that prevents anyone from using a Hero Power. We might see it making a comeback. 

Plus, Algalon moves one card per turn to the bottom of your deck (it doesn't destroy it, doesn't give it to your opponent). Great time for additional card draw, tutors, and such. 

Playing Haleh on curve isn't the problem. Summoning two of her with a discounted fire spell is an issue for sure. 

Personally, I don't see Team 5 changing Solid Alibi in any format. Mage had Ice Block starting in beta. That's part of what Mage does: trick the opponent into thinking they had lethal. 

It'll be interesting to see the approach to Twist. Do they bother with bans and nerfs, or just move on to the next batch of rules? 

I see, this should be the correct text apparently (and very cool artwork by the way):

I love the reference.

Did you fight with Kologarn in Ulduar? His healthpool is divided between 2 hands and body (something like Neptulon the Tidehunter) and his right hand had ability to catch players. Other players had to dmg that hand to free imprisoned player.

So Kologarn "grabs" attacked minion and keep it in his (player) hand as long as he's alive.

Anyway, this card is something like hard removal (*poof*), no deathrattles or bodies to ressurect, buffs probably also be gone. Even if it dies, opponent need to replay that card (which in most cases won't be possible same turn that Kologarn died).

Imagine this card in rogue with all those shadowsteps. That's a nice Titan you've got there. It would be a shame if someone stole it.

Might be a translating issue since it that it was presented in Korean or Japanese (I can't read neither so I don't really know)

I know there is not much space left to put more words on the card, but at least mention the word 'hand' in the deathrattle. That would have certainly made the wording better. That means it is actually different from Gigafin's deathrattle effect.

Also, the whitespace after the apostrophe and before the 's' suggests (to me) it is not the final text yet. You even wrote it correctly in your comment, but the card itself does not.

By the way, wording/grammar aside. I do not think this card is good enough at its mana cost to be very competitive. It does get rid of a minion from the board and can be potentially used by yourself, but if not and the minion has a battlecry, the opponent is able to get value from it once again.

While the wording is weird, I think the deathrattle seems correct - if you don't play the card(s) in time, they get taken from your hand and put into your opponent's. So unless you mana cheat this guy somehow, you can't kill a big guy and play it on the same turn, and you risk giving your opponent the card back if they can kill Kologarn.

The wording of Kologarn is pretty weird, so I assume it's not the final text? I imagine the deathrattle has the reverse effect, like Gigafin.

I do think HotS came to the moba genre a bit too late (released in 2015) compared to Dota 2 and LoL. I really enjoyed HotS but all my hardcore moba friends never played with me coz they were too invested in Dota 2 already :(

If only Blizzard had reacted quick enough when Ice frog had created a brand new game genre in Warcraft 3 custom maps...

Also some more lore here relating to dragons. Before the Titans came to Azeroth all dragons were Proto-dragons (During the time of Galakrond). After the defeat of Galakrond, Tyr gifted 5 dragons sentience and power which turned them into the Dragon Aspects we know today. Deathwing (His name was actually Neltharion before he become corrupted by the Old Gods), Alexstrasza, Malygos, Nozdormu and Ysera.

There's an excellent book called Dawn of the Aspects that explores this history but through the perspective of Kalecgos.

Also Titans/Keepers are featured (especially Tyr) in the current WoW expansion Dragonflight.

OMG OMG OMG!!! They finally added TLPD to HS! I still don't have that mount in WoW and doubt I'll ever get it 😅(This mount is considered one of the rarest drops in the game)

Now I will patiently wait for Aeonaxx and Phosphorescent Stone Drake to be added to HS

I'll appologize in advance for getting a bit sweaty there with Siren song pirate aggro

But sometimes I give the wrong impression

If I'm playing shromes or poros that's just for fun and isn't really indicative of any sucess on your part

I'm trying to make bad archetypes good

So if you want to meme some high value brews I will instantly bring you back to earth with what eternal is truly like

Hope you enjoyed your trip

Yeah yeah I know I've been doing this long enough that I get counter brewed the Milla second I post something 

But that doesn't change the 10 wins that prompted the post

Its a bit too late though, and if they got board early then this thing just dies. And that's playing it on 3. In the late game, this card is just worthless against most decks that isn't rogue, mage or druid, and all three have ways of dealing with 4 health.

Id rather just play Cult Neophyte, which more or less does the same tech job, 1 mana less, and cannot be countered by removing it.

Best part of this card is that its a dragon, so it can easily fit into menagerie. Probably the only hope it has in my opinion.
