Predictions:

- Corrupt Elementalist -> 6 mana

- Faceless Corruptor -> 6 mana

- Mutate -> 1 mana (or make Mogu Fleshshaper be discounted by only own cards)

- Galakrond, the Tempest -> 6/6s instead of 8/8s

Ban Mutate ;)

Firstly: those googly eyes, I lol'd

Secondly: even though it's nice balance adjustments are being made QUICKLY, it feels kind of silly to do it within the first week after release. Was this not tested good enough? (Reminds a bit of the D3 whirlrend nerf earlier this week, 1 month in the new season, after it had been seriously OP on PTR for god knows how long)

Anka, the Buried rocks! The deck just got even better!

I like your idea of adding Faceless Corruptor to the deck, but what should we switch out of the current deck? I'm worried if we choose [Hearthstone Card (Big Ol' Welp) Not Found]s we might miss some dragons to activate our Candle Breath and if we choose early game cards, well we might just die too early.

Looking forward to never seeing Faceless Corruptor ever again - a neutral 5 mana get two 5/4 rush minions is totally broken.

I'm honestly a little shocked they didn't see that in testing. Comparing to the Druid's Oasis Surger, to that same level of efficiency, you had to play Quest Druid and make inefficient plays for several turns. By contrast, this neutral card only requires that you play a deck that wants to control the early board (i.e. makes efficient early game plays), and the fact that you're morphing an existing minion is often a bonus rather than a drawback.

Hi guys,

With the new DoD expansion out, one of the few epics I opened 2 copies of was Embiggen. Now this is a very unique card, which is similar to good ol' Prince Keleseth. When I first started building a deck around it, I had to decide what way to go. Embiggen really wants you to play as many minions as possible, because that way you can profit as much from its effect as possible. That rules out Quest Druid and Token Druid, since those run a huge amount of spells, reducing the effectivity of Embiggen.

Because the new card Breath of Dreams seemed busted as hell (and it is), I decided to take the deck into a dragon direction. The gameplan is simple: Mulligan for Embiggen and Breath of Dreams, play overstatted minions, go face, win. The sidequest Strength in Numbers is a great addition as well, because it can pull big rush minions out of your deck for large boardswings. I am only playing 1 copy of it so far because I didn't open a second one yet, and I don't like crafting cards this early. For this same reason I have not included Frizz Kindleroost, and it's also why I run Ysera instead of Ysera, Unleashed.

Currently, I have a 77% winrate. However, I am not 100% sure of the decklist yet: The early game is still a very rough area, but too many small minions interfere with the sidequest and are bad topdecks in the lategame.

Does anybody have any suggestions with which to improve my decklist, and how have you built this deck yourself? Let's brainstorm the best version of Embiggen Druid together.

Who's in charge now?

I know this is technically not ramp Druid, but I have had a ton of fun with this deck and some decent success. The win condition is Ysera, Unleashed, and (if played right) the deck cycles very fast so you'll end up playing Ysera with few cards left in your deck which will summon you a whole lot of dragons quickly. All the attack cards are great at keeping the board clear while also amassing armor. Classic Deathwing is great after you play Ysera, Unleashed, since you'll be getting board presence from the portals. Plus this might be the only deck ever where I have found a solid use for Savagery.

this was expectedly unexpected we knew nerfs were coming but I didn't expect so fast because you know, past data.

Without Evolve, Mogu Fleshshaper isn't really that big of a deal imo. Shaman does far more broken things right now.

I really hope not. The cards that should be nerfed are Faceless Corruptor and Dragon's Pack, first of all. Corrupt Elementalist could warrant being bumped up to 6, but it's a distant third on my list of priorities.

Something something smoll indie game company

Hasn't Mogu Fleshshaper been a problem for longer?

Interesting, my Dragon Druid deck is quite similar but also quite different from yours. How do you deal with aggressive decks? I found rush minions and early-game minions quite necessary, especially the rush minions since they synergise great with Strength in Numbers.

Praise Galakrond for bringing Death to Galakrond! 

they will most probably concetrate on Corrupt Elementalist

Hopefully they will hit faceless corruptor. That card is nearly always 10/8 withrrush for 5 mana. 

U guys could have mentioned the news about the dev team nerfing shaman next week

Still, one of the Best BlizzCon Card Backs

You support a game and you have some "rewards" 

Nice one, sadly i didn't pre-ordered the bundle

This was the first expansion that i didn't purchased any bundle
