I thought the idea was to give that card to your opponent and then play Unseen Saboteur
I can't think of a practical way to do that, not even for a meme deck.
You could play Lorewalker Cho, but then you have to play the spell before your opponent gets to. Of course you could tune your deck to come out better than an average deck would, but you'd still take a hit.
You could put cards in your opponent's deck with Mischief Maker or King Togwaggle, but in the former case you'd have to get very lucky for that one card to be exactly Renounce Darkness and in the latter case it's hard to tell when the opponent drew it.
If you can manage to get Renounce Darkness in your opponent's hand, you still need some luck for the Saboteur to cast it, since the opponent might be holding other spells. And even if you get lucky, unless Renounce Darkness is worded very poorly, it wouldn't do much unless your opponent also happens to be playing Warlock.
I love the synergy of you having Star Aligner as your avatar while pointing out how perfectly the stars would have to align for that idea to even be possible. Beautiful work; 11/10.

In my opinion, that's awesome. Winnie the Pooh symbolizing the fight for human rights and freedom is the kind of thing you could previously only read about (and probably not believe)
I picked him and just shuffled 2 bombs every turn and went face with all my minions/weapons. Then when the horsemens head spawned and my bombs became useless I just dropped a brawl and I won in 30 minutes.
Well expressed without seeking to inflame the situation even more nor place blame on people who don't deserve it.
Nice one Brian.
I have no problem with the people of any country (excepting individuals or groups maybe), sadly that doesn't always extend to the governments/power structures of them though.
I made a new account a couple of months ago and my first Old Gods pack yeilded a C'thun. Mind you this was about 2 years after the Old Gods expansion, so I am pretty sure that rule will be there forever.
Unfortunately, the same cannot be said by American University, not in the sense that their message is outright wrong, but because their sign included "boycott Blizzard" in it. With those words, Activision-Blizzard can strip them of any winnings they might get from the tournament aleging "boycott Blizzard" as the reason to do so. A sign with just "free Hong Kong" would have the exact same effect without a scapegoat for Activision-Blizzard to pry on.
I mean, I play HS from open beta, spend much money on this game, like many people here, but believe me, if this will happen again and nothing change I believe we all find other source of entertainment. Me, for example, probably finally learn how to play MtG.
I actually hate it already. Sylvanas and Nzot in standard ... Paladins with avenge and challenger.... It changes the envionment. Now you can´t play a large number of decks anymore. You either be fast or play Nzot yourself.
It's a dig at Chinese President Xi Jinping - he was compared to Winnie in a meme and he took offense, so Pooh has been banned in China for the last few years. So naturally it's now re-surging as a protest symbol against him/the Chinese government.
Personality-wise, I consider it the highest complement to be compared to Pooh. Xi is a fool for not finding a way to turn it to his advantage somehow. On the flip side, I'm glad he didn't do that and corrupt the image of Pooh in the possess by associating it with his government.
Yes, that’s what we needed. Writing angry posts in forums is nice, but we need people who stand up and do something about this situation. I always liked Kibler, I like him even more now.

good on him, recognizing he's in a position where he can actually do this and going through with it

Carefully, he's a hero
Renounce Warlock?

Doom in the Tomb Begins!
I've seriously lost any desire to play this game recently. Cool things but I don't really want to play.
can you get c'thun for free when you buy wotog packs?
answer is yes. you're welcome.
Ragnaros
I was really excited to get this... thank you Fire Festival!

All This Excitement About Being Allowed To Play A Few Cards From Wild....
Wild is a dumpster fire and every game is a race to draw some broken combo.
N'Zoth Big Priest
I imported its code right from the game. I hope it helps. :)
Doom in the Tomb
Dr. Boom is a little dumb.
I picked him and just shuffled 2 bombs every turn and went face with all my minions/weapons. Then when the horsemens head spawned and my bombs became useless I just dropped a brawl and I won in 30 minutes.
N'Zoth Big Priest
if you copied a string from somewhere you have most likely this problem
simply remove the card (which was considered wild) and add it again (from the standard set)
it will work

Even if some cynics disagree, public shaming is also quite effective (the company, not the devs or streamers)

Never thought I'd see one of my favourite childhood cartoon characters being used as a protest symbol 15 years later.

Brian Kibler...
The hero we needed.
N'Zoth Quest Warlock
Not deck-breaking by any means. I would honestly just put in another anti-aggro card like MC Tech or some sort of removal

Valeera one is so unlore-friendly but I like it and the Garrosh one the most.
