OH LOOK now Spellhunter is playing that Barnes Cancer. Can we please just nerf the card to a 9 mana 1/1 and call it a day? And no team 5 people aren't playing it because it is fun, they play it because it gives them free wins and their tiny tiny brain can't find other ways to win otherwise.
They announced that Reno will be Mage (since he steals a lot and has presumably stolen some powerful artifacts and scrolls). Sir Finley is Paladin so there goes all the excitement I had for the expansion down the drain, o well.
This is rediculous, I find it a lot harder to see Sir Finley as the Mage than Reno.
Atleast the Secret Keeper, Harpy and Queen of Pain look better. I am okay with Evis and the bite change as the first one hasn't changed to much and the latter isn't terrible. Deadly Shot and Headcrack look meh to me.
I feel like the random effects in TDH aren't random akazamzarak always polymorphs the highest value target, the novelist always kills the highest value target, and I had mostly a low curve deck s Haro and he mind games the only 2 big minions in the deck, he mind gamed a sylvannas!
On the bright side I did finish 2 TDH runs so that was nice.
And the the Dragon with the random 4 damage Hero Power always hits the best target
Nerf priest, a class that didn't have anyone playing it at a massive tournament, and not hunter or conjurer's calling? Makes sense, guys. (Hearthstone Mathematics just released a video where the stats are getting out of hand for hunter; 1 out of 4 opponents is a hunter, and that's the kind of attention that could start the nerf aim.).
Seems a lot of the new stuff is aimed at buffing (or in Whitemane's case, rezzing) aggro garbage, which we DO NOT need. I have fun playing control against control warrior and other slower decks. Smorc, aggro and stacking mech paladin, not so much, and I find that boring as hell. Whitemane gives you the ability to suicide a board into big minions or taunts or refund your deathrattles. Just getting one suicidal venomous minion back with Whitemane's big body might be worth the drop as well. I'll give it that Whitemane could see play on both aggro and control decks.
The only bright spot is most of these are high mana cost, which may keep all but Whitemane and Siegebreaker in demon decks from seeing play.
Do like SI:7 just for giving a permanent anti-secret tech (if we ever need or can run it again; when you have too many aggro decks in the meta or player base, tech tools such as this and OTK disruptions fall in favor of multiple mass removals, which makes the game repetitive and boring to me). I can see conjurer's mages experimenting with the Barrens Stablehand. Brightwing is a fun low-cost dragon, but RNG isn't playing well at the moment (how many Madam Lazuls or mech pinatas get play?). You could argue Brightwing dilutes the dragon pool, especially if you end up with worse junk like Duskfallen Avianna or Milhouse as your battlecry reward.
Speaking as a long-time priest player, I prefer Mind Blast as a finisher than Inner Fire, btw. IF is the inverse of Bloodlust and Savage Roar; instead of waiting for a packed minion board, you just need one high health minion for an OTK. It's for decks that have nothing and it's a lazy mechanic. Mind Blast takes a set-up to kill, not to mention some earlier pressure (you're not likely to kill a 30-health opponent or anyone stacking armor).
/make Shadowform useful, please
Yeah, i was wondering why you would see Hunter and Conjurer's call an issue but not Warrior that can pretty much play removal on curve nowadays removing a lot of skill from playing Control Warrior. But you already gave your answer!
Completely unnecasery to nerf them. Yes they are in the Meta, but so are Highlander decks. And many more broken things.
I like the contrast. It highlights the csrd reveal part. Keep it I would say.

That would be stupid as hell. You can't infintely take away a class win condition without putting some proper back sometime.
Just tried it for the first time, 25 mins 18 sec. As Bomb Warrior

This looks very great, and the legendary quest appearing next to a normal daily is an interesting way to do it!
Next one is
Edit: How the hell do you get images to work here?
Edit 2: Thanks DestroyerR!

They replaced Succubus with a Felhunter.
This seems disgusting. Fair enough though, for 9 mana it has to be.
I would say reno is the mage and Finley the Paladin
Thats the best card in the game!
I have noticed quite a bit that people just drop Dyno Matic. Even had it happen on when I had mechs in play.
Crafted Golden Fandral, Malfurion, Aya, , because I wanted a golden Jade Druid Deck.
Crafted Zilliax, Jaina, Lich King, Vargoth, Loatheb because they are cool and I would use them a lot.
Also limitation is not the same as weakness. It´s more like a: sometimes they will be good at that, and sometimes not.
And the the Dragon with the random 4 damage Hero Power always hits the best target
Imagine making Priests basic and classic set worse.
