Hey buddy. First of all: I looked at some decks of you and I like them!
I just wonder: Did you try any of those decks yourself? Because I will try any Shaman deck (maybe not the pirate one xD) you have. They look funny and amazing!
I habe 1 question or suggestion to this deck: Why not playing Shudderwock here? He just repeats 2 Battlecries, but Hagathas is Anti Aggro and a second N‘Zoth don‘t sound that bad. :) I will try it with and without.
Great reviews. As an avid Hunter hater, I actually loved seeing this deathrattle hunter while I was laddering. Mainly because I was playing a control priest and dominated it at every turn. The thing that get me though is that when these types of write ups come across, people rush to play the decks. It reminds me of when I used to play MTG. A new deck would come out that dominated things and everyone raced to buy up the rares and what not. The benefit of playing an internet based game, no shortage of the cards... just need the dust. I can't believe that Corridor Creeper is still being utilized as much as it is.
Most of these are going to have a positive impact on the meta and slow it down a little. For the most part, this current meta is heavy in the aggro. I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of control options come about.
I think the real question about big priest is why do people still play it? It's clearly bad specially in this meta but for some reason some ppl just like to giggle like little idiots when they play a 2 mana card rez an 8+drop.
People like playing decks that are on autopilot, shudderwock shaman, rez priest, aviana kun combo druid, Zul'jin hunter. Makes them have to make as little decision making as possible

Was thinking of a good way to nerf rez priest that would still make the deck playable and it came to me. Make the rez mechanic the same as in Skyrim.
If you don't know in skyrim you have spells to resurrect things,just like in hearthstone, those things come to life and do your bidding even though they're dead. But after they die a second time, after being reanimated they turn to ash, and you can't resurrect them again. This is the change to rez priest that i think would be the best for both sides. Priest can still be bullshit resurrecting the lich king or ragnaros, but not several times throughout the game, they would have to play more minions which would dilute their pool so they wouldn't automatically get the lich king or ragnaros, or statue every time. This would make the deck less consistent, and make it easier to win against.
Of course I could be wrong on all of this, but to me the message is certainly not clear.
That's the bottom line - everything is speculation atm. I hope I'm proven wrong tomorrow and there is an announcement. I feel past patterns would suggest otherwise, but blizzard seem to have embraced breaking with tradition recently - buffing cards, adding a new class, bringing cards back from wild. It's anybody's guess how / when the new reveal will be handled. Let's just hope it's sooner rather than later.
Absolutely love this. This is a brilliant theme for a class. My favourite thing you've included is the 1 durability weapons, for a minute I just thought these were gonna be substitutes for spells but the added weapon synergy of Sera's Scheme and Elderwood Shaper makes them feel different and exciting. I think there are probably a couple balance changes or tweaks to be made so far like lowering the mana cost of a couple cards and similar things like that. Otherwise you've made a brilliant start and I'm excited to see how you adapt your class theme for each of the sets.
So, what changes do you expect in the standard meta after the nerfs go live? Even more Druids and Warriors? Maybe Hunter making a comeback? Rogue and Mage disappearing?
I reckon it'll be Thursday at the earliest. I don't think blizz would have two significant events in the game (major nerfs and expansion reveal) hitting on the same date, as they would dilute one another's coverage. Could be wrong, though.
No, the message is clear. On the July 14th there will be a patch. Why is there a patch? Because (my speculation) Blizzard will announce the new expansion and will roll out the patch with the prepurchase card back and prepurchase rogue hero skin.
And with this patch they sneaked out the balance changes.
I have my doubts about it happening tomorrow (14th) because they have not announced the announcement stream yet. Unless they do that today they are not going to just dump the information without telling people it is coming. Nerf patches often happen without much fuss, so that alone is not strong evidence.
As much as I'd love another rogue skin, there is also little to suggest it will be with the next pre-purchase. When they commented on this a couple of months back they said the character was decided on, but that "it likely won't be as soon as you want, sorry for that." To me that sounds like it is still some time away. I wouldn't be surprised if it will be Silas Darkmoon as the pre-purchase hero for the December expansion.
Of course I could be wrong on all of this, but to me the message is certainly not clear.
If you have something to say, then say it.. also I am not sure are you replying to someone or do you mean the announcement won't happen until tomorrow?
Anyway It's exactly what Aifi said that's my logic + the usual early august expansion timing.. t6hat being said corona is a thing so it might get delayed..

This article gives good in depth analysis of the teaser images. Summary of their theories.
Next expansion:Seems likely to do with Void Elves as the banner around the teaser image gem matches banners on some of their tents. Same color scheme and all.
Third expansion:We may finally be getting a Darkmoon Faire expansion this year. They discuss it in the article and give side by side comparison, but the gem and gem border in the teaser image for expansion 3 of 2020 matches the Darkmoon Faire card back gem and gem border EXACTLY. It also has a few other similarities. While you could say it's just lazy reusing of old art... come on! Blizzard may not be what they once were, but if they reused this art they had purpose and intent in doing so.
I took a loooong break from this game so my race to a golden DH portrait got halted. I'm at 402 wins with the class right now. I'll try to get in as many wins as I can before the new round of nerfs hit it on July 14.
Odd DH in Wild is gonna take a big hit with the Warglaives of Azzinoth nerf. I'm thinking of re-tooling the deck to be more mid-rangey (Priestess of Fury build), but let's see. The archetype didn't really suffer when it lost Altruis the Outcast and Skull of Gul'dan, so it might survive this new nerf.

Nerfs are Around the Corner! Our Thoughts on the Upcoming July Hearthstone Balance Changes

well they still promised D4 somewhere in 2021... it might be year and a half to go until end of 2021, but it is a deadline alright...

Nerf ideas for Rez Priest.
The real issue with Ress Priest has always been early cheating of huge amounts of mana.
Resurrecting itself is kinda ok.

What do you think?
at what time (CET) is the nerf?
In terms of aggro decks i find it easier to win with pirate warrior on both formats.
18h London time should be the nerfs
Expansion announcement this week
The new expansion is garrisons in hearthstone, where you log in just for garrison rewards and then log out, classic outland.
at what time (CET) is the nerf?
Tuesday 19:00, usually
at what time (CET) is the nerf?
in other words ... how much time I still have to try to reach Legend with my DH, before the nerf? tks
