I've always speculated how they could somewhat tip Raid the Sky Temple and The Amazing Reno so they aren't completely shit. Whenever I get that hp active, I always had this sneaky suspicion that its actually giving me cards I need every turn
If they can do this with heroic reno, then maybe its not so much a speculation on whether its actually possible or not.
I used a (very expensive) Highlander Priest. Pushed Galakrond to fatigue. Lots of removal, lots of healing and taunt. Lots of tremendously terrible AI decisions. :D
... On a more serious note, Whizbang the Wonderful is probably gonna be hit the hardest by the Rotation. Playing mediocre Standard-Decks in Wild? Yeah... Would be like a Snowball in Hell.
BUT
I think there's reason to believe the Devs will keep him around. Remember when SN1P-SN4P got released? They specifically said that it will be part of the Boomsday Project Expansion, which is also the one Whizbang is from. So MAYBE the Devs will replace him with SN1P and give him a Spot in the Classic Set. I'd look out for that when they'll talk about Rotation/HoF.
Well, Freljord says a lot of "no" with Frostbite. P&Z and Shadow Isles say "no" by murdering your units. Shadow Isles also says "no" by un-murdering its own units. Ionia says "no" by buffing the unit you were trying to kill. Noxus says "no, you cannot block my damage."
There are a million ways to say "no" in this game, and every region has plenty of them.
Agreed to all the above. What I hope is, if they do add it later, they won't retroactively award it to people that bought collectors, because I'm done with Wow, but I have a nearly complete card back collection.
Trump summarised it well when he made a singleton rogue near the start of the expansion. I don't remember exactly how he phrased it but he essentially considered Flik to be an unfair card more or less on par with Zephrys and Alexstrasza.
Viewing it another way, rogue has been built to have the best single target removal of all the classes, and Flik is arguably the best of those. (I personally think she's a fair bit better than Vilespine Slayer was. That's subjective but says a lot!) Given you choose a class based on what it is good at, it becomes quite obvious that Flik ends up in pretty much every rogue deck regardless of what the archetype is: she's one of the reasons to play rogue in the first place.
Is it possible that he had something like Rimetusk Shaman up?
The OP said that he had a "full board" and that all of his units were frostbit only after he declared his attack, so that couldn't be it. At least assuming all of his statements are true.
Oh, this is weird then.
If the OP has Autopass enabled, then I think DoubleSummon's theory of having Harsh Winds casted on him is plausible and he just passed over it when looking at the history.
If that isn't it, then I don't know what it is.
It makes even more sense, when you realize he said he was on the 5th expedition(so everyone has at least 3 champions) and had Anivia on board, anivia's champion spell is Anivia's Harsh Winds.
Other than the fact that it's a buffed Assassinate paired with a 4/4 body for only one more mana?
Additionally to that, the fact that it hits all copies makes it a great board-clear against decks such as token druid that often have 5/6 treants on board.
It also instantly wins the game versus holy-wrath paladin, but that deck is basically extinct.
The card's just really good. Similar to Vilespine Slayer previous rotation.
So ive been planning on making a Galakrond rouge and i see alot of pro decks that have Flik Skyshiv (which i also have) and im just wondering what is the purpose of Flik Skyshiv in these decks?
Blizzard May be Reverting Card Nerfs on the Next Set Rotation
Well... to be fair, not even at 7 it was good in wild...
Happy Singles Awareness Day, Hearthstone! Highlander Decks to Celebrate Love is in the Air
Happy Singles Awareness Day to you too! Here are some Highlander Puns for this glorious Festivity:
-You're ONE of a Kind!
-You're my ONE and ONLY!
-Let's be SINGLE together!
Achievements not counting towards Quest reward.
Hmmm..... sounds like a re-roll is in order then. Sucks too because as worded, it's a super easy quest.
Bystekhilcar ...thanks for dropping out a poential cause for this happening. It makes sense.

Ideas you posted that I really like:
1. "Player should be able to set the art for each deck image. (Right now, it seems to default to the most powerful Champion in the deck.)"
2. "Option for a more compact deck list would be nice." I find it quite annoying that I can't see my entire decklist without scrolling.
3. I also agree you should be able to see the XP needed to lvl up without having to go to the "Change Region" menu
Which card are you going to miss the most from the upcoming rotating sets and how would you replace it?
I literally only play Shaman so :
Zentimo and Krag'wa, the Frog mostly because I loooooooove their entrance sound.
Hagatha the Witch as well, my first legendary craft and simply the card that made me love this game. So much fun.
Baleful Banker, Zilliax, Firetree Witchdoctor, Electra Stormsurge are all cards I particularly enjoyed.
I'm kind of happy to see Shudderwock go though.

Floating Watcher is Moving to Tavern Tier 4 in a Server Patch this Thursday
Actually, there are 2 demons on tier 2. 2/4 demon that gives +2/+2 and 3/3 demon with taunt.

Galakrond's Awakening : Heroic Guide
Heroic Togwaggle was really easy using this one:
Wild · Thief Priest · by AbusingKel · 6 years, 7 months ago
Merchant's Teemo Doom Dots of Doom
It was a fun deck for the first week of release, but there are far more refined Teemo lists at this point.
Also, does Merchant even play this game anymore? How is this a top deck?

I like the looks of this new version very much!
I look forward to trying something similar. I've had three Vladimir for ages, but they've never seen play. (They were all random rewards.)

Anyone else think Ionia has a little too much?

Thanks a lot, Horus! I did it on the first try with your deck and it was cheaper than others I had seen. Win-win.
Gyong's Legend Galakrond Rogue
best removal in the game
What does Flik do ?

What does Flik do ?
And in the rare event you go against an Albatros deck you can knife the birds!
What does Flik do ?
I don't understand why you don't understand why this card is good.
It is a 6 mana 4/4 that destroys whatever you want.
It is a removal card. It's role in the deck is the same as the role of any other kill card in any other deck.
How did Anivia win that game?
It makes even more sense, when you realize he said he was on the 5th expedition(so everyone has at least 3 champions) and had Anivia on board, anivia's champion spell is Anivia's Harsh Winds.

When deck building defies logic
Boomcrew Rookie is way, way, way better than Legion Saboteur.
Zaunite Urchin is actually fairly weak -- you don't need more ways to discard.
And of course, it will all come together a whole lot better once you get some Dravens.
In general, you want more third copies of the better cards instead of so many doubles.
