Shiny new busted cards to make new players want to play hearthstone, while at the same time making long time players hate playing hearthstone. IDK maybe they think the people coming in will be more than the people leaving, but negativity bias exists for a reason. People remember when they get shit on over and over by DH more than they'll remember winning against them. I will not play this game when the expansion drops. I'm not paying activision for this shit. And i'm not going to play until this class gets fixed. And hopefully others are just like me to make activision finally stop releasing busted cards that are intended to be busted and not fun to play against.

Since the release of the latest patch, Amalgadon has been my absolute favorite card. I think it’s one of the most well-balanced cards that has been added to Battlegrounds as it can be viable in any board composition but it doesn’t feel oppressive or unfair to play against like Holy Mackerel used to be. Unless you’re playing a Menagerie board, the more “ahead” you are in developing an end-game board (i.e. full board of Murlocs or full board of Dragons), the weaker the card becomes and the more behind you are in building a synergistic board, the stronger the card becomes in hopes of helping you catch up. Looking at HS Replay statistics, Amalgadon is one of the top 3 most impactful minions for every single board composition which makes a lot of sense because it works well with almost every board:
Menagerie: huge buff to Menagerie boards, although still not great by any means they’re much more competitively viable than they were previously. Amalgadon does best when both Murlocs and Mechs are both in play since you can manually add poison or a divine shield if you miss with the adaptations.
Dragons: I think Amalgadon is actually the biggest buff to dragons since it can be a poisonous divine shield minion that gets further buffed by Kalecgos, regain divine shield from Nadina and also help buff your Waxrider by killing enemy minions.
Murlocs: huge buff to murlocs because it can be discovered by Primalfin Lookout at Tier 5 and it can also be buffed and adapted. Also synergizes well with the fact that you often have a Brann on board as well.
Beasts: can be buffed by Goldrinn, Mama Bear and Pack Leader. Downside is that it can interfere with your Monstrous Macaw since it can gain a deathrattle.
Mechs: it doesn’t add much synergy unfortunately and could actually hurt your board by spawning non-mech tokens with the deathrattle and taking up board space. The only upside is that it’ll get buffed by cards like Metaltooth Leaper in case it doesn’t already have poison. It’s a very slight buff to Sneed’s Old Shredder as a 6/6 minion coming out isn’t bad and as a mech minion it’ll also reset your divine shields on Deflect-o-Bot.
Pirates: pretty decent buff to Pirates since it can be used defensively as a big taunt minion (which pirates generally don’t have) or aggressively as an attacker to activate buffs from Ripsnarl Captain and Dread Admiral Eliza. It’s also a buff to Tide Razor since it’s a 6* minion with 6/6 in stats which is an above-average pirate to come out of the boat and deals an extra 6 hero damage if it stays alive.
Demons: slight synergy with demons because it can activate Soul Juggler however the downside is the 1/1 deathrattle spawns could take up board space that would otherwise be filled with voidwalkers from a voidlord. Slight buff to Imp Mama as well since a 6/6 minion is above average.
Some lower tiered heroes that have benefited from Amalgadon:
Alexstrasza – I think this is a slight buff to Alex as discovering this card with the hero power is actually quite impactful since you’re generally rushing to Tier 5 and you may have a bit of a menagerie board at this point anyways if you weren’t able to find strong dragons along the way. Additionally, if you do decide to go dragons
Infinite Toki – huge buff to Toki because it’s a great minion for her to discover with her hero power on turn 5. It’s not like finding a Nadina when you have no dragons or finding a Megasaur with no murlocs, if you find an Amalgadon it’ll generally strengthen your existing board.
Shudderwock – amazing synergy with hero power, enough said.
The following chart was pulled from Twitter and I don’t have the original source of who did the calculations, but here’s the probability of hitting the jackpot with Amalgadon which is getting both poison and divine shield:
Number of adapts = Probability of divine shield and poison
1 = 0.00%
2 = 3.13%
3 = 8.20%
4 = 14.40%
5 = 21.15%
6 = 28.04%
7 = 34.81%
8 = 41.29%
9 = 47.38%
10 = 53.02%
11 = 58.19%
12 = 62.88%
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk. Here’s one of my favorite games I’ve had with Amalgadon:

It's literally cheating. Yes, you are climbing, but it's not your skill- it's Blizzard's oversight. I'm in disbelief that they really thought making two more spells in order to achieve Time Warp would change a thing. You could make it 12 and it would still be effective, balanced even.
I'm thankful that I'm not the kind of person that jumps on board to mindless, no soul decks just because they work, I really am. To the many Quest Mages out there, I want to tell you that your wins are meaningless. Every satisfaction that you got from victory was no different than a PARTICIPATION TROPHY. You are not achieving anything. You are jumping on ship to something that is broken and will be nerfed again.
It's pathetic if you think your playing ability had anything to do with it. Dwell on it a second and feel lousy about yourselves, please.

People already claiming control is dead and Glide is just too powerful for control to handle it also it ruins card advantage.. except.. it doesn't.
I will explain first of all Glide is worse than Divine Favor it costs 1 more and you need to empty your hand entirely or else you won't draw everything also when outcast vs aggro mirror it's giving your opponent fuel as well and you need at least 3 cards to NOT outcast it (it being the middle one) so you draw 2 card for 4 mana(for reference Arcane Intellect.. or Spectral Sight) it's below average there.
Divine Favor at least drew you 1-2 cards vs aggro.
About card advantage, the player playing outcasted Glide is always at a card DISADVANTAGE they draw 4 cards, the opponents draws 4 cards and then the opponent draws one card in their next turn, which means the oppponent have 5 cards and the DH have 4 cards.. also it can't have more than 5 mana to play them cause he had to at least play the last drawn card of the last turn (and there are no 0 mana cards in DH anymore), the card will be played at minimum turn 7 or so.. and by then the average control card is just better/more effective than an aggro card.
Another point- decks playing Glide will be highly telegraphed they are HYPER aggro, so you control whinners can play cards instead of hoarding them in your hand until your AOE is perfect against their board.. also it's what you should do anyway.. there's also an important factor.. your current hand isn't always desirable.. a free Plot Twist for you might be something you want to do anyway.. specially if you are quest warlock, they just healed you up with Aranasi Broodmothers.
So control is dead cause of a situational draw card? nope.. is the community overreacting? yes.

This bitch just won’t die. With how easy she is to keep alive she feels overpowered maybe if Ionia didn’t have so many saves it would be fine and the cost to recall is a step in the right direction. Drains, vengeance, marking her with vulnerability and sending a unit with enough power to end her several times this bitch just eludes everything. Changing it so only her first spell each round is doubled or maybe even first two spells would still make her oppressive but not a guaranteed win.
“well kill her before she levels and end the game”
tired that I push everything to end the game but Ionia is very adapt to easily stall.
