Artwork is badass and the effect isn't terrible - deal 5, gain 5 - with a requirement that goes without saying in the appropriate built. This may improve the odds of actually playing that golden War Master Voone I unpacked a while ago and never used.
I did not, by any mean, insinuated that she won thanks to RNG. My comment was more of a general statement about woman exposure and presence within male dominated industries - in this case video game - where gender shouldn't impact on the results. This win may inspire others.
I can understand believing you'd get 10 full Mana Crystals after playing it. That'd be broken, but I could understand why you would think that.
I cannot understand how you're getting 6 full Mana Crystals and 4 empty. You've already paid for Nozdormu the Timeless - why would they remove 4 of your mana afterwards?
It's irrelevant anyway - I wouldn't have so confidently stated how the interaction worked if we didn't have explicit confirmation, which we do. It works exactly like Mojomaster Zihi - you don't get any full Mana Crystals from it.
This in not a card you want to play on curve for tempo: consider it as an Emperor Thaurissan that you play either when you have your combo ready in hand or when you can discount many value cards in a single swoop.
In order to rightfully evaluate this card, I think we should read its effect like "Taunt. Battlecry: summon 2 1/1 Imps/Add a random Lackey to your hand/add a random Priest minion to your hand/whatever the Shaman and Warrior hero power can do".
In this case, I dare to say that it's pretty fucking good given that even EVIL Cable Rat, a 2 mana 1/1 that most people considered to be trash, has been seeing tons of play.
If Galakrond will see play, this card will almost certainly be played as well.
It may make the cut since there are so few 3 mana dragons available (Brightwing and Marsh Drake) and it even "draws" a card, but it's not a gamebreaking card for sure.
It will see plenty of play in all non-exclusively-beasts Hunter decks and I'm sure we'll grow to hate him as much as we've hated Eternium Rover, Dire Mole and Northshire Cleric
This card seems fun but we have to acknowledge that it messes up Zephrys the Great (which is not a small detail at all) and for it to be at least decent we should receive a couple of proactive dragons with Rush (yeah, no Rush Dragons so far) or other mechanics that immediately affect the board (maybe a small stats buff? I don't know I'm just brainstorming).
Either way, we just have to wait another months to know.
It's a pity that currently the strongest decks (Quest/Evolve Shaman and Combo Priest) are so RNG-heavy, but I think it was Liooon's selection and piloting of Malygos Druid and especially Highlander Hunter that gave her the edge over the other players.
I don't know, you might be right but i think "set" mechanic works same with every other aspects of the game.
with Mojomaster Zihi your mana ends up empty because it is a 6-mana card and you pay those manas for playing it. It is pretty normal that you have ended up with empty crystals when you played it at turn 6 or playing it at turn 10 after spending your remaining 4 mana.
I still think that after playing Nozdormu the Timeless, you will have 6 or 10 mana because it doesn't say they will be empty.
Game works like; You have now 4 mana, You played Nozdormu the Timeless and paid 4 mana, Trigger its battlecry, Set both players mana to 10, Summon 8/8 body. It can even set your filled mana to 10 but it won't because we have an example of Mojomaster Zihi, which shows the spent mana for card itself remains after it is played. When you play Mojomaster Zihi at 10 mana, you ended up with 1 empty and 4 filled mana crystals.
Think about Alexstrasza, It sets the Health to 15 and it is highlighted that the health she set is "remaining" so it doesn't change the maximum health like Amara, Warden of Hope.
I'm %80 sure that you will have 6 mana to spend after playing Nozdormu the Timeless.
Otherwise, It should have been texted like "Set both players mana to 10, they are empty crystals." or sth. like that.
War Master Voone
One day you will shine, maybe sooner than later.
This comment was optimistically written shortly after Descent of Dragons' expansion was announced.
New Warrior Spell - Molten Breath
Artwork is badass and the effect isn't terrible - deal 5, gain 5 - with a requirement that goes without saying in the appropriate built. This may improve the odds of actually playing that golden War Master Voone I unpacked a while ago and never used.
New Mage Spell - Learn Draconic
That's also what I came here to say.
This side quest seems at least more interesting than the one hunter is getting.
New Warrior Minion - Deathwing, Mad Aspect
And you can do it while playing as the new Deathwing Warrior hero
New Warrior Minion - Deathwing, Mad Aspect
3 ?! More like 6, thanks to Sathrovarr !
But yes, 3 different iterations of the same unique minion is something
Custom Class - The Astromancer (Updated 2/2 for Descent of Dragons and Galakrond's Awakening)
I feel like Quetz'lun's Pact should say "another" so it doesn't transform itself.
Or, at the very least, the text would probably read cleaner that way.
New Priest Hero - Galakrond, the Unspeakable
I want to believe this will push different archetype for priest ... I do.
... but it wont

Or we could get Princess Talanji and absolutely wreck everyone
Fate Weaver

Man the more I look at it and the more I crave it
Umbral Skulker
How's this card garbage?
It gives Rogue, a class focused on combos, burst damage and miracle turns, 3 zero cost spells that give you a mana crystal.
Candle Breath
3 mana draw 3: pretty decent, even more if you couple it with Shadow of Death or Waxadred
Sathrovarr
Poor Ashmore: I still have hope in her!
Shield of Galakrond
In order to rightfully evaluate this card, I think we should read its effect like "Taunt. Battlecry: summon 2 1/1 Imps/Add a random Lackey to your hand/add a random Priest minion to your hand/whatever the Shaman and Warrior hero power can do".
In this case, I dare to say that it's pretty fucking good given that even EVIL Cable Rat, a 2 mana 1/1 that most people considered to be trash, has been seeing tons of play.
If Galakrond will see play, this card will almost certainly be played as well.
Dragonbane
Good base for Zilliax, even more on curve
Primordial Explorer
Heh, cool but I don't know about it.
It may make the cut since there are so few 3 mana dragons available (Brightwing and Marsh Drake) and it even "draws" a card, but it's not a gamebreaking card for sure.
Dwarven Sharpshooter
If played on curve, this is a really big threat for the opponent's early game.
It one shots Flame Imp, one of the best 1 drops in the game, alongside with all the other fairly common ones (Town Crier, Secretkeeper, Murloc Tidecaller, Lightwarden, Pharaoh Cat and so on), with the exception of Eternium Rover and Northshire Cleric (which however can be death with the following turn together with a trade).
It will see plenty of play in all non-exclusively-beasts Hunter decks and I'm sure we'll grow to hate him as much as we've hated Eternium Rover, Dire Mole and Northshire Cleric
Ysera, Unleashed
Why are you downvoting him? He's right.

New Warrior Minion - Deathwing, Mad Aspect
0-mana deal 3 damage to a minion summon 12/12 for shamans...

Awwwww man, Deathwing Warrior Hero Skin is sooo tempting ...
Must ... resist ...

Wow! I've seen your work in the same competition I joined. Keep up the good work for this class <333

Good to see a woman shining in a esport final, not like RNG cares about gender, but still a good step forward.
