Pyroblast wins me a LOT of games. It definitely stays, even though it looks too slow.
Azerite is fun when it goes off, but it's definitely one I'm considering cutting. But it is another elemental for the Elemental Allies sidequest, which is a small consideration.
Thank you for these reviews. The flavour texts have been on point. Also I am taking everything you say for gospel and coming back here to spew obscenities if i lose even one game off of your advice!!!
So obviously Blizz needs to hire you all to write their flavor text for them...I've been laughing at the "yo dawg" paladin meme for a solid 2 minutes.
I kind of wonder about those Paladin-only cards though - it's not unheard of for non-Highlander decks to run Zephrys simply because by the time you're halfway through your deck you'll have a good chance of being able to play him for the effect. Could those not be run anyways and just run similarly and/or sort of like Archivist Elysiana for a "very late game Hail Mary"?
Cards like Faceless Corruptor give you such a big advantage if you play a tempo/zoo type of deck, even if you play a midrange one, i think is one of that card which will ruin the day for a lot of players, i will be quiet glad if they ban it, to just allow us enjoy our dragons cards.
It's very likely the first card to get hit the Arena Ban Hammer. It was a unanimous 5 star score and all 3 of us noted how ridiculous the power level is in the Impact thread - copied in spoiler below. It's going to have a high "when played" win rate.
Faceless Corruptor (5/5): So you know how Quest Druid gets carried by [Hearthstone Card (oassis surger) Not Found]s? How about if every class could just do that too? Yikes!
Faceless Corruptor - 5 - Found our Flappy Bird! Totally over the top value. Any small or damaged minion can work to trade then you've got a pair of 5/4 bodies for 5 mana. Oof.
My girlfriend related to the Tyrande-issue with a story from school: there was a pupil who was allowed to leave early once a week (don't know why). Another pupil went forth and asked the prinicipal to be allowed to leave early as well - that's just fine, everybody can plead for equal rights. But when the second pupil was rejected (probably because nr. 1 had reasons nr. 2 couldn't provide), nr. 2 then asked to strip nr. 1 from their privilege to reinstate equality. And this is not okay. As long as nr. 2 isn't directly or indirectly harmed by nr. 1s privilege, nr. 2 may try to get it for his/herself, but should refrain from trying to pull down nr. 1.
A cop stops two cars for speeding. He greets the one and lets him ho. Then he gives you a fine.
From your point of view it is absolutely OK, because you should not take into consideration someones privilege.
Do you see the error in your view?
There’s no error here. It’s not your business whether someone else did or didn’t get punished for something they did. Did you do something wrong that gives someone the right to punish you? If you did, you have absolutely nothing to claim if they do.
You can protest the other person being released on grounds that they may threaten society (and you) if they keep driving unchecked, but that is specific to this example and has nothing to do with the example @anchorm4n brought. Student nr. 1 being allowed to leave early doesn’t impact student nr. 2 in any way, so it’s not his business.
You need to be a buddhist-monk level of conscience, if you can ignore injustice. If everyone would be like ignoring derogiation happening to other then themselves you society would fall apart.
You being treated the way you deserve to be treated isn’t injustice. Injustice would be a cop giving you a ticket without you actually speeding or breaking the law in any way.
No worries at all! I noticed that they started putting DoD decks under current standard decks, so it's pretty easy to get confused when decks are appearing where they shouldn't be.
Sounds fun, but the problem with decks like this is that you are drawing sooo many cards you can't play until you have all the pieces and get them mana discounted that any deck that isn't super slow control will just mop the floor with you.
When Mech Hunter was all the rage, I saw a lot of 8-mana (i.e. drop them both together so neither piece can get cleared) Venomizer + Missile Launcher. Obviously not a spell, nor foolproof (if anything has Divine Shield) but still a fairly strong board wipe while still leaving you a strong body afterwards.
Rexxar works.. though the hero power is kind of a liability.. I can't fill my hand. Explosive trap it is I guess.
Some friendly, unsolicited advice: cut the Master's Calls and run 2x Flare. Since you only have two beasts and far more mechs in your deck, you're pretty much paying 3 mana to draw a card. Flare is one mana cheaper AND significantly improves your match-up against the ever so popular secret mage.

Thanks for the reply :D

I STRONGLY disagree with Pure Paladin being an uninteresting archetype.
Flavor-wise, it is actually one of the most interesting archetypes EVER.
It just needs some extra support card to mimic what Retribution Paladin is in WoW.
I'd love it if Pure Paladin becomes the new Aggro Paladin.
Another card on the same line as Lightforged Zealot could be enough.

And that's not even including the tokens, or the adventure modes that come with the sets. It's kinda crazy.

About Tyrande's coming back and The value Blizzard gives older players( WARNING: SALT THREAD ! )
Yeah, sorry about that. Normal Coin won’t show on the image option, so I switched to Counterfeit Coin and changed the spellstone accordingly

Blocked by the Counterspell good sir. Unless you played The Coin first ;)

Sweet article! The art is such a cool process, it's hard to believe they can come up with 135 or more unique pieces of art every 4 months!

What?! What kind of retroactive trickery is this?! Oh well, you’ll find there’s much more where that came from

I hope I can´t pull it in real packs because it is possible to pull in this sites simulator even though it is free.

Hoping for Treant Druid finally being a thing.

Damnit! Well... good thing this was already in play...
About Tyrande's coming back and The value Blizzard gives older players( WARNING: SALT THREAD ! )
I’ll counter that

Because at Blizzard, they are very consistent with their wording :D

¿Azerite Elemental and Pyroblast works well? It looks too slow.
But I'm not a mage player, so. :D

I bet it will get nerfed to remove the rush.
That or it will get changed to "Transform a friendly minion into a Faceless Corruptor" if Shudderwock becomes too good.
P.S. Why does it say "Transform one of your minions" Instead of "Transform a friendly minion"?

Well you don't have any copies of Explosive Trap in your deck, that is probably a good place to start.
