Heimer and Flash of Brilliance is practically all you need anyways. Don't forget that Heimer technically generates 9 diffferent cards, which is basically half the requirement already, as long as you have enough spells of different mana costs
Yeah, I've made a few decks that ran Catastrophe, but honestly when you get right down to it most of the time they were just Heimer decks with an emergency fall-back plan. Never needed Karma, just Heimer plus the standard Expedition deck breadth was plenty.
I'm trying to not get my hopes up so I'm not let down by the announcement... but I can just feel it in my bones that this is finally time for The Burning Legion to be unleashed upon the world of HS.
For those who don't know/care enough to look it up: the "dianoga" was the monster in the trash compactor scene in Star Wars: New Hope. I figured that would be a dead giveaway given the card art plus the flavor text literally being dialogue from that scene.
So annoyed. First I had to fully reinstall due to the iOS issues. Then I’ve played 8 or 9 games of battlegrounds and only been offered one of the new heroes 1 time.
You're right about Alex into Alex creating a surprise huge board. That is a different thing.
But Pogos and Tess? You can make a lot of them with the right set up, but not infinite, and you have to draw them. Once you've become Galakrond, your hero power gives you lackeys, plus you can keep invoking to get more. That's a lot of 4/4s. I mean, how many times did they nerf The Caverns Below?
First off, there is no true infinite in HS without using Nozdormu turn reset shenanigans, because there is a finite number of turns before the game is declared a draw.
Regardless, you can make more than enough Tesses or Pogos for other decks to handle, so they are 'endless' within the scope of the game in that you win while still having many turns of them left to come. But what I really meant to get at was that I would rather face down 1 or 2 4/4s each turn than a Tess or an ever-growing Pogo.
The Caverns Below looks and smells the same but it isn't. It didn't even have positive win rates most of the time. The issue with that deck was due to the sheer prevalence of it which made people dislike playing against it, and that it locked control decks out of the meta. If for whatever reason only 1% of players played it, it would not have warped the meta and no one would have had a problem with the deck. The same goes for Tekhan now: it appears so rarely in rogue that the effect on the meta and the game as a whole is negligible.
Look at it this way: you can count the number of times you have seen it happen since the release of DoD on one hand right? Now how many times have you won or lost due to other crazy luck in the same time? Way more I bet, so why does this rare event concern you?
Actually, generating lackeys with your hero power is absolutely infinite lackeys. You can keep doing it once a turn, every turn, regardless of whether you have any cards or not.
I agree that it's a highroll, and rare, and makes a great story. It felt bad to lose to it, and it felt unfair to win with it. Those are just my impressions.

Nonsense.
In this case you defnitely cannot get infinite lackeys, just like you cannot get infinite pogos/Tess from Toggwaggle's Scheme. You have one lackey per turn + few lackeys from invoking (4-6 max)
Getting the Tekahn is really highroll but quite rare one so it is good to have in the game for creating funny stories.
The one mana card gives 2 mana to both players and is never played outside of very aggressive ramp combos like Moonfire OTK
thats probably it i kept thinking of 2 for 1 packages i origionally thought of Starfall becuase of the synergy with Untapped Potential which is in some moonfire otk decks
Wow. Incredible how you thought of that card. Sadly it's not the right one, I would never ask after a token.
But you are right, the last two lines refer to Moonfire.
So what you are looking for is a druid spell from a standard set which was (as far as I know) exclusively played in a deck revolving around the moonfire OTK. The last piece of the picture is the first line of the riddle.

Definitely a non-issue. Way too big card pool to be consistent.

I keep forgetting StrifeCro is into LoR now. I need to give him a look-see.
I'm loving Mogwai's Karmalux, though!
It's refreshing to be playing a game where so many different deck lists are both fun and relevant!
