  • Stop saying "if dragon warlock works" to this card.

    Of course it will be a thing ! It must be !


    Jokes Aside, Even old Handlock can use this, You always hold Twilight Drakes in opening hand. There is no reason you don't hold this either.

    This card will see obvious play, even in non-dragon themed decks. I will try this in a Handlock with more dragons or maybe in a Plot Twist deck either.

    2 damage for 2 mana is already ok thing, believe me.

  • Ok, They convinced me, I will be playing Dragonlock for next 4 months.

  • I don't see this will bring Gonk deck back. I mean ok, it will help but really can't see it will be played in competitively. It will be just another meme in my opinion.

    But we might see this card in some Quest Druid lists tho. Not so sure about that also.

    What I see with this card is only Gadgetzan Auctioneer synergy but why do you use this card with Gadgetzan Auctioneer ? There are no fitting decks for his draws right now.

    Well, I don't want to say anything about this card until all set reveals completed. Strange card.

  • Invoke requirement makes me think because we don't know which kind of invoke cards warrior will get.

    We might see so aggressive warrior deck this time i guess. Every invoke minion will give him +3 attack. Warrior has a lot of weapons. Pirates are always there etc.

    I really apprecciate this Warrior Galakrond deck will require invoke minions tho. I wouldn't bare 8/6 Kor'kron Elites every time I see Galakrond.

    That aggressive Warrior deck now has one last push with draw 4 minions (not cards, minions) plus +4/+4 buffs to them. Kind of a Divine Favor for Aggro Warrior.

    You can see it in a more control/midrange oriented deck tho but I see it like its place is in aggro more than Control/Midrange.

  • I thought that there is only 1 sidequest cards for Good guys. It seems there will be more than I thought like Twinspells.

    I liked this one more. It is not just Desert Spear thing, Like I said under mage's sidequest, it is also good for mid-late game because we all have leftover mana on that spot. 4/4 beast with a rush isn't so bad even in late game for your leftover mana. With so much rush minions in hunter it is also not so hard to activate it.

  • That's so nice!

    What I really like is the last question's answer.

    He actually says that they will support other formats when they will occur. So that means when Runeterra will have its own Standard/Wild or any other formats (whatever they name those), they will support them competitively which means there will be tournements for all formats. That's nice to hear.

    Also, it makes me happy to hear more about upcoming regions which he is underlined at last answer again. He simply says "we will make other formats but we care upcoming regions more.".

    Monthly balance is also a great news for me. It means that meta will be always fresh. That could be a little stressing to collect all the cards tho but that's better in this way imo.

    I hope when the time comes, rotations are not be like Hearthstone's. I mean, There is no core set rotations in hearthstone. The only rotations about core set is Hall of fame. Riot will add regions with expansions. I hope all new Regions will have their own core set so when rotation comes to runeterra, we don't face a full region rotation.

    Think that Hearthstone will bring Death Knight, Monk and Demon Hunter to the game in a year with expansions and rotate them after a year so there aren't those classes in standard anymore. That would be bad. I hope upcoming regions will stay in all formats of Runeterra whatever formats there will be.

  • Ok dude, I am ending this discussion here, Because you seem like you have hard times to understand what I write here.

    I am a first degree witness of how the rewards are. I got a diamond chest via 6 wins and my complete shard reward with what I got from that chest was 3500 plus few shards.

    You want a world that 5 wins gives you also 4000 shards which make you able to play expeditions infinitely but the truth is you are forgetting the fact that chests + extra cards will also give you shards.

    Try to understand a bit the economy model of the game and then we can discuss.

    I will play this game as f2p completely and make you know how I'm playing all of my expeditions without spending a coin or how I can't play because I won't spend any real money to expeditions or wildcards. Maybe on cosmetics if i really like them.

    Good luck in your life.

    Edit: BTW, May I ask Were you in second preview ?

  • as I said for Shield of Galakrond;

    Quote From Almaniarra

    Reasonable neutral Invoke minion. Can be broken or bad according to Galakronds' hero powers. 1 card 5 form. Neutral Invoke cards are so different. Hard to evaluate.

    it is;

    4/5 Taunt; Add a random priest minion to your hand
    4/5 Taunt; Add a random lackey to your hand
    4/5 Taunt; Summon two 1/1 imps

    at the same time and will be more when we learn other hero powers of Galakrond.

    So early to evaluate neutral Invoke cards imo.

    it is;

    2/2 Rush; Add a random priest minion to your hand
    2/2 Rush; Add a random lackey to your hand
    2/2 Rush; Summon two 1/1 imps

  • Good pick for arena and discover but I don't think I will put it in my decks.

  • The card doesn't fit my playstyle so I can't evaluate efficiently. Might be good or not, really can't say anything but truth is I don't want this card.

    After I complete all cards, I can reconsider if i want it or not tho. :)

    Even it appears in a tier S or tier 1 deck, I won't craft it.

    But liked the art tbh. I always like ugly monsters.

  • It is more funny when you use it in a shitty deck believe me.

    It has its own use in pally and druid, I see, but don't underestiamte the guy's meme potential. He really offers great fun value ! like mutliple Archbishop Benedictus !

  • I don't want more imps Blizzard. I want Dragonlock.

    better you show some dragon related cards for warlocks. We need creative stuff. Not little green imps.

  • Warlocks now can summon 7 imps in every rounds.

    That's the plan;
    Summon 7 imps, hit something. They die. Summon other imps that will die, Summon them again, Summon them again...

    here that big Jumbo Imp is coming.

    I will make a deck with all Giants and imps themed. Warlock needs its own Scuttlegeist for sure. Jumbo Imp is not enough and it doesn't even get cost reduction if it stays on deck.

  • So, Blizzard wants warlocks to not care which card you draw and throw to their opponent's face.

    I mean; Ok, card is great but Galakrond, the Wretched is bad.

    They say us "don't care what you throw to your opponent, just throw it."

  • What I expect;

    Summons 3 random Mal'Ganis

    What it really does;

    Summons 3 random Imps. (I know, I know that's a token.)

  • I wanted to evaluate this card after see some other shaman cards but;

    This is just overpowered. The only situation this will see no play is that shamans will get no dragons but truth is that will never happen + THERE ARE NEUTRAL DRAGONS !!!

    We all hated shamans enough blizzard. Do something !

    Shaman was my favorite class of the Saga and you made me hate it via Hearthstone. Thank you so much !

    Evolve was ok thematically but a hateful card ! You didn't have to add murloc package to shamans just because MURLOCS ARE SHAMANS !

    pff, I hate you blizzard. I blowed all my salt here to you. I don't have salts anymore.

  • Imagine a world you lack mana to use this and use Preparation to be able to use this.

    It will happen i swear.

  • Quote From Input

    I'm not yet sold on dragons in rogue, but this is nice if we do.

    C'mon, I am playing Dragon Rogue since Blackrock Mountain. Dragons are always good in Rogue. Azure Drake were always in Rogue lists.

    Highlander Dragon Rogue was one of my favorite decks in LoE times and after that in wild.

    You need to explore more things in classes like trying Beast Mages, Spell Damage Warriors etc.

    Game is funnier when you try things. Copy-pasteing netdecks are just boring.

    I really don't understand how people enjoys to play this game only playing netdecks.

    Tinkering decks, trying to stuff work is the most important part of the card games imo. I am really shocked when I see comments like this.

    Sorry if I offended you. Just blowed up here so don't take it personally.

  • Quote From YourPrivateNightmare

    excuse me what?

    Don't forget that Rogue is the second best at generating lots of lackey, one of which discovers a dragon, meaning even if you don't draw your dragons, you still have an out.

    Don't even need to get fancy, just run Faerie Dragon  and a few others and you're good

    You are right. Also you don't even need Faerie Dragon imo. with those huge lackey generation you will always find one. Even more in galakrond decks. :)
