In a game where spells are so high costed and so valuable, having the ability to just completely waste your opponent's entire turn for just 3-mana is ridiculous.
Fiora also seems kind of busted so maybe they're gonna nerf her stats to make it harder to upgrade her.
That's a really cool animation. I think it's too soon for a meta report since it hasn't been a full week since the nerfs went live.
I honestly don't know what the meta is like anymore. A few days ago; I got the "play 2 Battlegrounds" quest, and I got hooked. I haven't even been keeping up on my daily's anymore.
I've found Galakrond Shaman to be a lot less potent after the Nerfs. It's still around but I've beaten it with HandLock and Highlander Din fairly regularly. Warrogue is tough to beat for sure, although again, because of my perchant for Control ish decks this Expansion I'm not finding them that hard to beat either.
Oh, sure, I got this thing to rank 2, but, by not playing 30 games a day, the meta shifted on me before I could hit legend. To make it explicit, this deck is no longer countering the march to legend. Given aggro lists are very popular in lower ranks, I'd still swear by this deck on the march to rank 5, but I'm back to the drawing board.
Today, my all-time favorite video game turns 20 years old.

Gran Turismo has been my favorite racing game franchise, and one of my all time favorite franchises of anything ever since I got GT1. I first got GT2 as a Christmas present back in 2008, and it's nothing short of amazing.
I'm new to the forums but figured since there's not much happening in the LoR space right now I'd share some content that I've made! At least in the LoR Reddit which I frequent, these cards seem to be pretty highly discussed in regards to potential nerfs, etc. What do you guys think about them?
First, thanks to Kibler; may his real-life situation pass by smoothly.
Great deck, and yes, it shuts down hunter hilariously and gives the finger to the "priest is dead" crowd.
Alternate cards to consider (I drop Psychopomp and don't have a second Batterhead).
Shadow Madness: Great for stealing reborn/deathrattles (common in rogue, paladin, mirror matches; a good many deathrattles are 3-attack and under) or in a early pinch. Yes, warn the public that what you steal and its possible deathrattle can reappear in mass summon, so there's risk attached. Not like Psychopomp already has that problem :P
High Inquisitor Whitemane: Optional and situational; throw it in if you got it and are missing a card like me (And mine happens to be gold, so it's pretty to behold on use). But playing it after an opponent doesn't clear Zerek's Cloning Gallery or just manually sacrificing minions such as Convincing Infiltator or Khartut Defender or two can be demoralizing to an opponent. Can be like a third mass rez, with an extra big body to boot (and not a bad size one to get back on mass rez).
King Phaoris: Used in the past; not using this now. You got some really big spells in this deck, you know, and could have a glut in hand. If you think you need an offensive super move/panic button and don't care what shows up on Mass Rez, go ahead.
Arcane Dynamo: Not using this now, but if the meta gets slower, or there's a reason to need a three or more Mass Rez/Plague of Death, here's an option. No guarantee of course, but did well for me in the N'zoth version of this deck at the end of Saviors of Uldum era.
Hakkar, the Soulflayer: Like someone's mentioned albatross option, you can use this to ruin highlander decks, and this gives you a possible win if the game goes long enough. Throw in the new Wyrmrest Purifier as your late-game antidote, which gives you random priest spells and minions. It's risky and clunky to launch though, but nice if it comes up in Zerek's Cloning Gallery. Saved me against a paladin, hunter and rogue thinking they could use Zephrys, and destroyed a mirror priest, Galakrond rogue and shaman who forgot how many draw card battlecries he played when he busted out Shudderwock. Be mindful of silences and Sap before using, and don't let the opposing priest use Seance on the Purifier.
To My Side! or Animal Companion. To My Side fits more the "call" clue (since the punctuation can be read as Rexxar catually "calling" them to his side) but Animal Companion would fit more the "love only one" since there's only one beast summoned/in the art so both seem to work (unless it's neither of these as well?). Although Rexxar also says "to my side" when playing Animal Companion, so that would be the more likely of the two now that I think about it.

They'll have to nerf Deny eventually.

but alas, I’m laughed at still

oh how i laughed, this would make so many bosses easier

That was cute and funny.
[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
Tracking is right, DestroyerR is next. That was close! Kudos for ArngrimUndying though for figuring out most of the riddle.
[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
It could also be Master's Call. Tracking seems to fit better, though.
[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
AHG you beat me to it by a minute! Nicely done.
[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
AHA!
Tracking
I'm a father of three - look at 3 cards
But I love only one - Can only choose 1
Looking for answers? Call on me - use this to fish for answers
Or for the final push to hunt them down - or lethal
[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
Tracking maybe?
[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
I'm sorry, but no. You got several things right, though: it's a hunter card and it's a spell. Hint: "Father" does not mean summoning.
[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
Beat me to it by 5 minutes . . .
