I like how this one looks kinda like a portal to Outlands. Looks cool!

Venom has insane synergy with location actually... Because he gets +15 extra and then 5 on top (when he eats he doesn't count base stats but buffed stats)

It really doesn't matter how many cards the class has. Team5 is responsible for the power level of the class, whether or not the class has ten or a hundred less cards than other classes doesn't even factor into the conversation. There's tons of cards that dont ever see play, and specifically classes like warrior might as well not even exist in the current meta.

But I do agree that DK doesn't need buffs. And the reasoning is fairly straight forward. Their cards are busted for their cost already. Heart Strike is a 1 mana deal 3, where the standard being 2 mana for the same damage. Vampiric Blood gives 10 health and draws a card for 2 mana. Boneguard Commander summons a board full of 1/2 taunts. Frostwyrm's Fury is straight out busted. But to answer the question as to why DK isn't doing well despite all these cards is simple;

- The rune system, as I opined a month ago, doesn't encourage better deckbuilding it simply restricts each archetype to their respective runes and disables interesting interaction (and thus interesting deck building). Imagine if I could play a frost deck that can actually decently control, or gain corpses. Or if I could insert a few niche cards into blood control like Horn of Winter etc. Instead, all we get is the standard blood, frost etc. deck that's really not much different from what team5 themselves came out with. So there's really a dearth of options.

- DK draws like shit. In a world where your class draws worse than every other class other than warrior, you're really not going anywhere. Hence why warrior themselves are currently shit too. I mean, we used to poke fun at priest for this and suddenly that class can draw their whole deck now.

- The pop off turns of the current meta is nuts. Turn 4 12/12 draka weapons, etc. DK is simply not fitted to deal with any of these. Or indeed most classes as a matter of fact. That is why the solution is not buffing DK, its toning down the obvious bs the other classes are doing.

Besides, DK is doing very well in arena. I think that alone shows how much pumped up their cards are, when the meta isn't putting out 12/12 stealth minions on turn 4. I think when the meta is more 'fair' then DK will come out on top, and get inevitably nerfed because their cards are power creeping existing standards as it is.

I would prefer team5 to remove the rune system and balance DK's cards. But this is obviously never going to happen.

People who want DK buffed are not realizing this class has 5 expansion and 4 minisets less cards than every other class right now. 

Not to mention it would probably break arena.

Buffing DK also wouldn't help it against any more decks really, it would just be even stronger against the decks it's already strong against or it just become extremely busted to the point where Blizzard just has to go back and nerf it after the buffs. 

DK may need some tweaks but not straight up buffs. If they're gonna buff it they need to nerf some problem cards as well.

For example Patchwork should not be a 1 rune card.

Instead of buffing they could just use the miniset to add some support to the class, DK is lacking in cards not strength.

It's very easy to win games when you're still mostly just facing pool 1. New players, simple mechanics.

You'll discover that both cards and decisions matter a whole lot more as your collection level progresses. It becomes much less "just poker" and much more about properly predicting what your opponent is going to do.

And if you want 8 cubes, basically ever, you have to be able to surprise your opponent in some fashion. Otherwise, they will retreat.

Isn't poker about predicting what your opponents will do

Sure, and you can even win Texas Hold'em with a terribad hand, since you never have to show your cards if your opponents all fold.

But in Snap, the only way you get 8 cubes, or even 4 cubes, is by BOTH properly predicting your opponent's move AND also actually winning.

Because if they fold, you only get 1 cube, which definitely doesn't count as "winning" - unlike how it would be in poker.

Fun and interactive... He killed me from nearly 40 health btw

Im giving this 4 stars out of respect of its possible power level. Because even I know this card wouldn't see any play in standard because there's no way to seriously gain enough armor for this to be worthwhile. And its mana cheating is a bit redundant with Wildheart Guff around

But that said, it does possess a worthy level of power. You can in effect make the sire denathrius combo out of this card assuming you have the armor to do it. And that alone is worth most of the fuss because its only against control and value where this card truly shines anyway.

 

In wild however, this card can be defining because Linecracker exists there. Not sure if its still fast enough to beat all those combo decks, or if the druid combo can be easily bolstered by this card. We'll have to wait and see.

Edit: reply deleted. Have some proper manners.

Ayo nerf this shit and give me my fucking dust blizzard. 

There's still a lot of good elemental support. I just beat a deathrattle rogue and 2 Death Knight's with this list.

So Marvel Snap definately has a noticeable pay to win curve.

Pool 1 = easy and fair climb

Pool 2 = much the same

You can hit vibranium very easily with just basic deck building sense and a normal amount of smart play.

But you hit Pool 3 and oh boy

It's just Wong into magic into crazy late game power spike combos

Meanwhile you're like wow I own all of like 3 Pool cards...like I guess venom is cool, human torch, idk I haven't gotten any new wincons yet.

So when you hit that wall collection level 500+ where cards are no longer guaranteed 

The developers are expecting you to essentially pay money to guarantee free wins.

Not because youre better, or because you're Galaxy brain, but you simple have an inherrant advantage.

So this is the ugly predatory side of snap.

The developers are aware of it, they purposely shield you from it sub collection level 500

But it doesn't stop them from turning on the drip and beating you with the stick after that once they have you on longterm retention.

It's for that reason that I would hesitate calling snap the mobile game of the year personally.

It could be, it might be, but it's also greedy and nasty in a way that LOR never was.

Yeah, this guy is infuriating when played with Brann and duplicated and played for free through armor. Card itself is fine, Brann, Anubrekahn and Guff are the problem.

I would like to see the Manathirst decoupled from the Battlecry, so it would deal (8x2)+8 instead of (8+8)x2 with Brann. Nerfs exactly Druid and nothing else, so if/when Druid becomes statistically too powerful then it's an easy band-aid. Not sure if it's warranted right now, haven't seen the winrates.

Could also replace cry with rattle for getting next stages, but that's a whole different can of worms... And druid would STILL be able to get multiples of him through Hedge Maze and even tutor with the 7/6 tree... So nevermind.

Hey there madcat, thanks for the hints! Your Snap hint struck me immediatelly, so it was huge help, thanks a lot!

With MTG I had the same idea seeing the arcticle and it worked :D Now just the Yu-Gi-Oh one missing, I guess it´s time to abuse the search box :P

EDIT: Got all 10, thanks both madcat and ShinRyuuken! :)

Those priest mirrors man, slowly eating those casters alive.

1 entire hour, 40 card list to fatigue. And the best part is that I only watched one of those things. Plenty more to come.

Oh, yes. Even as Edwin might not be around, there must always be some form of strong Rogue represented. 

For MTG:

For Yu-Gi-Oh:

No. I just realized I looked dead at that hours ago and am now feeling quite dumb.

For ice cream:

For Snap:

Well, think of a character in the Marvelverse that shares the name with a card in another popular game here relevant to the clue. And forget any connection to snow or holidays (at least that I can think of). Hope that didn't make it even worse :)

Glad to help!

Well, apart from The Snap, I don´t have the Magic one and the second Yu-Gi-Oh.. But I don´t play any of it, so I´m not sure if any clue would help me with this anyway, but thanks :)

That will work. Any of the three you're missing I could attempt to return the favor on?

I know how you feel, I´m stuck at 7/10. I have no clue about the Snap hint, but as for HS:

Hope this helps, if not, I might try to give another hint if you want.

Excited to see the new class in action 🤣

Keeping with tradition, the winner of World's MUST have a Rogue deck 🤯

If you do not have Solarium (Draw+Discard), swap in Malchezaar's Imp
& Fist of Jaraxxus with Expired Merchant so you can still discard w/o Soulfire

After falling victim to this card doubled over from Brann's effect with Druid... something needs to be done about this.  Yeah, it's a set up, but so was Sire and he got wrecked with the nerf
