Previously we had talked about how the eternal tier list looked a little jank.
With low playrates, and possible not the solid meta stats to back them up yet.
Well let's look to see how these decks are doing now that they've been swimming around a bit.
Thresh Nasus - 53% so despite two massive buffs this deck is doing fairly average, looks like everyone started remembering their denys like I said and the deck doesn't do much else
Bandle City P and Z - so this deck is doing well right now in the play stuff eternal meta it has 0 Champs and 0 wincons just looking to exhaust your opponents resources. Apparently that's good enough to win 59% of games when you're building garbage decks for the format.
Annie Katarina- shockers the 12 1 dmg ping deck is winning an average of 52% of games aka not amazing
Ryze - poor ryze I think he can do well but he might need some deck tuning
Poppy Ziggs - 57% this deck is dumb it embodies the play stuff meta where the only deck that can beat it is literally a deck with 0 Champs. Plz revert the poppy buff Riot!
Annie jhin - 52% yep I said it wasn't as good now didn't I?
Set Trundle- 52% not a great ramp list
Vi timelines - another play stuff deck
So honestly the meta in eternal is basically board spam 0 wincons. Or board spam aggro.
I dont think this is representative of the best eternal has to offer and once Riot reverts the buff to poppy and we don't have to brew around poppy zigs anymore we can actually play good decks and not timelines, or zero champ garbage.
Now how does this effect me?
Not a huge amount I'll always play my off meta decks but poppy ziggs is just overtuned pound for pound right now and that sucks.
Regis believes she could have some good utility: her use in a Move deck is obvious, but maybe you can use her to be a sneaky 2-drop. Like if you want to move your Devil Dinosaur away from an upcoming Shang-Chi, or maybe move your Wong out of Cosmo's influence, etc. etc. She could be clunky sometimes because there will be moments you don't want to move stuff, but she could be like Jeff in-that you just slot her in anyway for the positive outcomes. There's also an idea of using a package of cards like Ghost-Spider + Spider-Man 2099 inside of another main deck.
All-in-all, it's possible she becomes a staple like Jeff, Lizard, or Luke Cage where you could see her in various homes for various reasons, not just as a Move-enabler. Ghost-Spider isn't seemingly Spider-Ham-levels of busted, but could be a perfectly fine card.
Not any of the finalists, I'm sure. And there were definitely moments of "wow, that card is such a perfect fit I'm surprised it's not actually in the game" too.
Noticing either is just an opportunity to think about card design and the various successes and failures of gameplay and deck building.
According to the HS-wiki page: Kill the Lorewalker depicts a Wolpertinger, an almost mythical beast visible only to extremely drunken adventurers. It is not known exactly what relation the Wolpertinger bears to the function of this spell.
I'm guessing drunken Pandarian is the logical explanation here, if that helps at all ..!
First time I played this card was a control match-up. Dropped him on curve, then 8 rounds of epic combat later, my opponent took 40 damage from this. I got both achievements simultaneously. Very fun, exciting game. Huge shout-out to my worthy foe for letting the spell kill them instead of conceding, you're a good dude for that. I'll be sure to pay it forward if given the chance.
Reading lots of hate regarding this brawl, and I must say that this one is one of my favorite; really like the cooperation factor to it, and how mandatory it is if you want to succeed. Of course, you also need to be lucky and make it obvious when you try to set up a play, but the challenging aspect is what makes it so satisfying when completed. Had a blast with multiple different random players and won 4 out of the 5 brawls I played.
Unfortunately no. It reads health change, and armor simply doesn't count. That's the same way Flesh Giant works as well, it has to be health that increases/decreases.
I think it's intended to let you start using your healing effects even under a bunch of armor.
Back when Healadin was a deck, you wanted early damage (like the minion that converted most of your health to armor) so that you got value out of every little healing battlecry.
I'm not sure Druid has this kind of deck right now.
So if new rules means that this card doesn't even advance the Demon Seed quest when played, the only instance I thought it might actually be useful, then I guess the card is 100% trash then?
If they made this cost 2 health, or even 3, then maybe... MAYBE it could be included in an aggro/zoo type of list for early tempo plays. But at 5... fuck that!
Thank you, hope it’s fun! I’m a little bit behind on writing a guide as life has gotten in the way…but now with the mini-set the new Hunter/DK beast is warranting some consideration for this deck. Going to think of how to jam it in before posting the guide I have written.
I got my most annoyed ever in Hearthstone history thanks to his Brawl. And it was, of course, not because of the Brawl. After a couple of tries I got a game where we were one round away from killing the boss and my oppononent quit. It was the first time I was ready to be that guy that hurls insults after a friend request.
MARVEL SNAP's June Season Spider-Versus is Live - New Season Pass, New Cards, & More!
It's still coming with the next update, probably 1-2 weeks from now. Seasons are scheduled and happen automatically without the need of an update.
This time mostly against real players, still bad, time to slow down.
Lmao.
At least you don't talk to your opponents that might not even be on this forum.
Take a break man. Play something else. Lots of good stuff out there. If you're interested in other game types, i could provide a few titles.

Our conundrum is that we both love and detest change mapquest driving directions; what we actually want is for things to stay the same yet improve.

Guess I misremembered it. I've found Arcanite Ripper to be an excellent card overall, maybe it would be too good if it counted armor.
