I'm not really sure, but I think, that you received two dislikes and that's why you see a difference between the scores on the front page and on the respective deck one. On the deck page only the upvotes are taken into account.
Maybe you are right but let's see an answer from the experts. It's just that I want fair scoring for everybody, that's all.
You people missed the point. Sure it's bullshit and it's horrible to lose to, but it's not nearly as bad as Big Priest since it's counterable by Dirty Rat and a bunch of other cards, but just nerfing Barnes would mess up Hunter and other decks that cheat out Y'Shaarj, while Priest would remain the same (this isn't even for debate, there are countless versions of Big Priest without Barnes that are the same cancer, Vargoth makes that possible), therefore nerfing Barnes would definitely be the wrong thing if you want to nerf BIG PRIEST
I agree that just hitting Barnes probably wouldn't be enough to address Respriest, and something more fundamental, like changing the way the game treats dead minions/resurrects would be preferable. I'm just pointing out that I have no sympathy for anyone using barneshaarj and I'm perfectly happy seeing other decks that run that cheesy combo take collateral damage from a potential Barnes nerf.

Nerfing Barnes would only mess up Spell Hunter when it comes to other competitive decks, but removing a big minion on turn 4 isn't a problem anyway if they can't resurrect it 2 times the very next turn.
Good.
Barnes into Y'shaarj on turn 3/4 has no place anywhere. Not in big priest, not in spell hunter.
Get that disgrace out of my games, thanks.
Totally agree. WRT Spell Hunter specifically, if a deck needs to run a 2-card combo that actively sabotages the main thrust of the deck in order to cheese out turn 4 concedes then that's a problem.
Maybe the spellhunter archetype should die along with the degenerate Barneshaarj combo until better support for it comes along.

That's a new thing to me. I care little to none when it comes to deck scores, but I care for reliability/accuracy of system and new deck-ideas.
Please have a look at the picture. The deck in question is circled around with yellow:
It is scored 2 point, which I don't care. But when I have a look, it is scored different. I wish this system error was solely on this deck. Sadly, there's more: Even-Renounce is scored here as 6 points, yet here it's 5 points. I believe this issue should be addressed as soon as possible to bring justice around all decks. Maybe when errors are resolved, we can see other worthy decks on Hot pages that otherwise couldn't due to errors.
Can't attack is largely redundant on a 0-attack minion. None of the other totems have this extra drawback, so I don't see why this needs it.
The card itself seems severely underpowered for what it does. I honestly doubt the regular Wrath of Air Totem would see play if they printed it as a card, let alone a version that turns into a nigh-unkillable liability when it dies. Just compare this to Bloodmage Thalnos: why would a shaman play this instead? Or compare it to Kobold Hermit, where for 1 mana more you get:
Never played WoW myself, but iv seen threads pop up from time to time where ppl wished for an Uldum expansion for years now, saying that it is one of the most iconic places in WoW and that it has great lore and locations. I would gladly explore that in Hearthstone :)

You need to have the images posted online somewhere and have a url linked to it. Most of the time I use Hearthcards or Imgur to get a url to post things. There’s a thing you can click on in the comments that’ll let you paste a url and resize the dimensions of the picture. Sorry it took a while to get back to you.

Taking on the resurrection mechanic will require a lot of work, because it probably has to do with how poorly graveyard is managed in HS. The easy solution for Team 5 is just to nerf Barnes, since he's the one taking all the blame since forever and also the one that allows to cheat out a big minion so early in the game (while Shadow Essence is at last 2 turns after him and that's is a very important difference between the two).
Seems pretty good, i would recommend one changes tho: althought we run geist i would swap town crier with shield slam. it's pretty much needed in control warrior.
And because i don't have it, i swapped devastator with brann, i will check if it works well :)
I don't know how the storytelling in the next two expansions will be handled - if we would see the good guys assembling (2nd expansion) and fighting the villains in the 3rd or assembling and fighting the villains in the 2nd, while someone sneakily steals a very powerful artifact and everyone gathers around to defeat that final boss. Before this article I thought, that Raffam would be the final boss, who planned all of the heist just to get to that mysterius object. But now I'm leaning towards the Tol'Vir. If Tekahn backstabs Rafaam and holds the power for himself, that would be a Plot Twist I would gladly experience.
I really wouldn't mind if he was reworked to be more in line with a regular hero card because I really like mistah J, but boy does it feel bad to have you max health capped at 15. If he worked more like Alexstrasza , where you could heal back up to 30 afterwards and retained your armour, he'd be a lot better in 2019 Hearthstone.
True. Btw I have slightly edited my previous post, so sorry if you didn't see it.

1 mana playable spell Totem. With a drawback!
Can't attack is largely redundant on a 0-attack minion. None of the other totems have this extra drawback, so I don't see why this needs it.
The card itself seems severely underpowered for what it does. I honestly doubt the regular Wrath of Air Totem would see play if they printed it as a card, let alone a version that turns into a nigh-unkillable liability when it dies. Just compare this to Bloodmage Thalnos: why would a shaman play this instead? Or compare it to Kobold Hermit, where for 1 mana more you get:
1. A guaranteed 1/1 body.
2. A choice between all 4 basic totems.
3. No drawback on the totem.
And of course Kobold Hermit never sees play.
[Game] Name another card that has the same...
DOOM!
Destroys all minions.

What do you think about using Bwonsamdi, the Dead to yoink all the Weasels out of your deck?
