Wait, this card doesn't get Charge immediately after you "gain" control? The fuck? They showed that it did in the clip but apparently it doesn't work like that???
Card also says "gain" control like in Shadow Madness and not "take" control like in Cabal Shadow Priest or Mind Control. So "gain" should get Charge imo. I would like to nominate this card for the Consistently Inconsistent category for the Bingo, please.
Swim said that not running Nautilus was really bad and was a reason that he could've lost and to be honest the deck he played was more SI control than anything, as he said it himself. If you're running Deep, you probably want Nautilus in the deck regardless because Nautilus kinda just carries the entire archetype on his humongous 13/13 body.
Ephemeral deck is like waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too strong. The stats are way over the top, Zed is such a huge power card, Dawn and Dusk gives a lot of value, the deck also has a lot of really good finishers such as Hecarim, Kinkou Lifeblade.
Overall, I think it's fine. The other decks actually do still have a good chance, some are just harder to play than the others. For example, the Poros deck is hard to beat because of the Frostbites and could potentially slam the Nexus with a 60/60 Heart of the Fluft with Overwhelm and Elusive. The VladBADCARDNAME one sucks tho lol. I take that back, that deck has quite a bit of Overwhelm.
Wasteland Assassin that costs one less sounds playable enough. Though I don't really see why it's a legendary, I don't think that having 2 copies of this in a deck will break it or anything.
Really cool synergy with cards like Shadowflame because you resurrect the Shadowflame'd minion and get everything it kills as well. Also, I have a feeling I'm gonna see someone use Coin before playing a 6 Mana spell like Blizzard only to realize the Coin activated the Spellburst.
This is a card I made that I think fits the theme of the Cult of the Damned as well as the shadow magic that Warlocks and Priests use. It's basically a 7 Mana kill spell and I think that it is already strong. You can steal Charge or Rush minions and get immediate value or deny Deathrattles from your opponent, or Silence the minion you steal so it becomes a 3 Mana cheaper Mind Control. Might be tweaked to 8 Mana because Warlock getting a kill spell with no downsides feels really scary.
KANSAS: I like the card but I think it's weak even at 1 Mana. You might need to make it to 0 Mana because it would be in line with Lazul's Scheme.
Paragon: I like that it doesn't do face damage at all, but I think it might still be too strong? Idk, my suggestion if you decide to nerf it is to make it 4 Mana or Overload (3). Though I think it's fine as it is.
anchorm4n: Great card and theme. I think that it's a good support for Big Demon Hunter and yeah I agree with it being probably too strong in Wild because of Skull of the Man'ari, but the card would be unplayable at 6.
CursedParrot: I'm all for a Priest weapon but I think that because of it being able to attack (especially so early), it doesn't feel as Priest because usually, they pair two classes that have similar things going for them. Also might be too strong for Priest because of the 3 Durability and 3+ Attack and Priest would be able to efficiently board clear without using many tools except Hero Power to heal.
Doesn't work. Spellburst works once and only once. You can't use Lightning Bolt eight times. I mean can you imagine what happens if it works as you suggest it? Play it at turn 2 and you have a Coin? Infinite Mana.
This card could be seen in future Ramp Druid decks. It has a solid curve if you play this on turn 1 and then turn 2 Wild Growth. It will be like Wild Growth never got changed at all! Overall, I think this card will fit in the Spell Druid decks with being able to discover other strong cards such as Overgrowth and Savage Roar.
I think with how the cards are shaping up such as Troublemaker, I think they're taking the chance to delve into Big Warrior again, an archetype that never seems to work. I think that a card like this will be powerful but unless there's a way to cheat this card out, it won't be meta. Definitely a good card in Arena.
saw the Pirates, ended up watching a bit of Trump only to realize that Battlegrounds is still a shitshow.
Still unspoiled on the whole Outland story so I think I might be doing that for the next few days. Are there any rewards for that?
Pretty much doing the Challenges nets you a Golden Kael'thas Sunstrider. Otherwise, the story is pretty alright. I don't believe there are any other rewards aside from maybe a card back?
Oh also, there’s a rule that Riot didn’t include in the explanation:
”When a champion dies, shuffle a copy of it into your deck”
How many champs you get? Only those 4 at the start? Then shuffled copies only?
Are champs always from different regions? Even after mulligan?
You only get those 4 Champs I believe and yeah they shuffle the copies only when they die and I don't think they get shuffled back when discarded but I have not tested it so...
Also, the Champs aren't always different regions so I think there's a chance where you get 4 Champs from the same region.
I think I like it a lot so far. It's fun playing 4 regions because you can go into some bullshit like Leveled Karma into Winter's Breath and then kill their Nexus with double Decimate.
It's perfectly themed as well for the ARAM concept where you get random champions and you are able to reroll them. Then you start with 3 mana, whereas LoL would have your champions start at level 3.
Though there are some things that I don't know if I like or dislike such as the fact that (I believe at least) there are no buckets and it's more of random cards thrown together from your Champions' regions. I got a LeviathanBADCARDNAME when I didn't pick Swain or how I got Puffcap cards when I picked Jinx. I think that this makes Champions that you have to build around weaker than it is, such as [Hearthstone Card (Nautilus) Not Found]BADCARDNAME or [Hearthstone Card (Maokai) Not Found]BADCARDNAME. So basically midrange Champs like Zed, Braum, Garen really strong.
[Hearthstone Card (Solitary Monk) Not Found] won't be able to kill [Hearthstone Card (Basilisk Rider) Not Found] now which seems to be a big change to me. Might make Noxus ago a lot more prominent until another deck comes out to shift the meta.
I think as a new player, that deck is fine. After all, you're just trying to find better cards to replace your bad cards. But I think in deckbuilding, you want to find out what's the purpose of the deck or the win condition. If you're going for a fast deck, you should consider replacing some cards that don't fit with your deck or they're just too slow like Thermogenic Beam or Amateur Aeronaut for example.
My favorite champion is simply Twisted Fate,BADCARDNAME because his level up animation is just really stylish. Like really really stylish. I made this deck because it's a really funny deck that uses one of Twisted Fate's Yellow Card which doesn't happen very often unless it's for very specific situations. Now with this deck, Yellow Card becomes a viable choice sometimes. It is a surprisingly viable deck but sadly loses literally every single mirror against normal Yasuo control decks.
I think that if you're considering to put in Yordle Grifter, I'm not sure if you can put in Zap Sprayfin or Chump WumpBADCARDNAME because they all do almost the same thing but they take the 4-drops slot, making your plays pretty dead and some times you'd even pass turn 3 with full Mana because you can't do anything.
I suggest putting in something like Petty Officer or Double Trouble but I think that if you really want to go Ezreal/TF, Make it Rain is just too good to not put in. Though I can understand why you don't want to put it in since you're obviously making the deck more about Riptide Rex.
First off, I would like to say that Sejuani might be good and I see where you are coming from, but Freljord first and Demacia last? I wouldn't say that Freljord is the worst class as of now, that one's arguable (it could be Noxus because it lacks diversity but even then Burn is still good, just not as prominent). I can say that most other regions are in a good position right now and Freljord does have some great tools such as Fury of the North and Elixir of Iron, etc but it's almost certain that Demacia is still such a powerhouse with or without the nerfs. Vanguard Bannerman and Cithria the Bold are definitely still really good.
If I were to say which region would be first, it'd be a fierce competition between Bilgewater and PnZ. Both classes are versatile enough and they have tons of great tools such as Make it Rain and Mystic Shot and Plunder is a pretty annoying mechanic to fight against. HeimerBADCARDNAME and Vi seems to be running the meta right now, I see them more often than I see Bannerman and Kinkou Elusives right now.
So to conclude, Freljord definitely not first but I don't think it's the worst. Demacia definitely not a meme, still good just not as prevalent. PnZ and Bilgewater are everywhere. Shadow Isles is a bit conditional because it has great Control tools. Noxus is still Noxus, much burn such wow. Ionia is Ionia, still annoying as ever. So far a decent patch.
That interaction doesn't work that way. I've tried it before. If you have a Fiora that's copied, the kill count that was on that Fiora will also get copied (Say this Fiora killed one only and you copy it and the kill count on the new Fiora will be 1/4). But each Fiora have different counts (If both Fiora are at 1/4 and they both each kill one unit, both will be at 2/4. If one Fiora kills and the other doesn't, then one will be 1/4 and the other 2/4.)

Can't wait to see this in Trolden videos when it hits a 1-drop 3 times.

If you have Get Excited!, Decimate or Noxian Fervor, I would consider to use them and replace Blade's Edge as 1 Mana deal 1 typically don't get enough value. Rummage could help too because you are running Jinx.
So all I can really say is good luck on your grind and hope you get all the cards you need.

Mayor Noggenfogger. I remember when you could run him in Spiritsinger Umbra + Dreadsteed combo or when you could use it with the Bladed Gauntlet OTK. Shit was dumb.
