I have tried. Oh, have I tried.

Standard Meta Report #15 - Fixing (Yet Another) Shaman Meta

Great suggestions in the comments. My favorites:

1) Hero power is 1/1 Rush instead of 2/1 Rush.

2) Add Overload (1) to BOTH Invocation of Frost and Corrupt Elementalist.

3) Change Battlecry to 1x 4/4 Rush, 2x …

The Best Galakrond Decks From Descent of Dragons Day 1

I spent the first day trying to make Galakrond Priest work. Holy cow is that a bad card. They did a terrible job balancing the Invoke cards, and the Priest Galakrond hero power is just terrible. Not even fun! "You …

Echo Mechanics Update - SN1P-SN4P, Sound the Bells! and Glinda Crowskin Refunds!

Hmmm. Does this mean that they could make Reckless Experimenter more reckless again? It was changed specifically because of Snip-Snap.

Also, what about Unstable Evolution? It doesn't technically have Echo, and I believe they've stated that "Repeatable this turn" …

Reminder: Doom in the Tomb Wild Minions Leave Standard Today

I like N'Zoth Rogue, but detest N'Zoth Priest. Good riddance. Long live the New Gods.

New Neutral Minion - Big Ol' Whelp

Meta-defining in the sense that every single deck outside of aggro will run this. Even some zoo decks will run this. Every control deck, dragons or not, will run this.

New Neutral Minion - Faceless Corruptor

This card is going to show up in all kinds of mid-range, aggro, and zoo decks. What an insane card. Take a value-trade and then summon 2 5/4 rush minions for 5-mana. Absolutely nuts.

Card Reveals - Faceless Corruptor & Murozond (Priest Legendary)

I just want to point out that with this reveal every single Legendary card has been revealed prior to the final reveal stream. That's a first. I still plan on tuning into Kripp of course, but I'm surprised they didn't …

New Priest Reveals - Mindflayer Kaahrj & Chronobreaker

Mindlfayer Kaahrj is insane. It's just not a combo-card. The most powerful 4-drop every printed was a 4/3 with a deathrattle that summoned a random 2-drop. Go ahead and play this on curve against an aggro opponent, and you get …

New Priest Reveals - Mindflayer Kaahrj & Chronobreaker

Chronobreaker reminds me of Chillmaw, but its strategy is very different. It's just a decent dragon to play in your deck. It gives you a body in the mid-game, and maybe sets you up for a great turn. But it's …

New Card Reveal - Tentacled Menace

Agreed. It's why I always hated Spellslinger and similar cards. Cards like these will literally lose you the game some non-trivial amount of time, even when they fit your deck's strategy.

New Hunter Minion - Diving Gryphon

Yes, I would play a Shadowbolt that draws a card in the class with the worst card draw. Potentially interesting combos with Dire Frenzy? Just a super strong card completely on its own aside from the beast synergy.

New Paladin Spell - Sanctuary

It's an excellent card compared to spamming your hero power with nothing else to do. I'm not sure it justifies a card in the deck. It's a strong card that doesn't break the game. I see it working best in …

Paladin Card Reveal - Sanctuary

The 3/6 can't attack the turn its summoned. It's strong, but not game-breaking when played on curve. In the late game it potentially never triggers. It's a good card, but I'm not sure why you include it in your deck. …

New Neutral Minion - Camouflaged Dirigible

Three stars for standard. It might be able to set up some combos, but I think those decks will be pretty marginal. It's a little bulky in terms of mana-cost for an effect like that. Powerful, but not flexible.

New Paladin Minion - Amber Watcher

Easy 5-star card. If a card becomes a staple in 2/3s of Paladin decks, it's meta-defining. This card is always good, on curve or off, dragon deck or not.

Descent of Dragons Card Reveal Period Giveaway

What if we've already purchased the $50-60 pack bundle for ourselves? Are we able to win another through OoC/Blizzard?

 

TIA. Still happy to rate because you've made it so easy! Huge site improvement!

New Druid Minion - Ysera, Unleashed

I mentioned in another thread that I thought Waxadred with Necriums was a better Chef Nomi. This is worse than that, but much more flexible, and slots easily into the dragon archetype whereas I think you need to build an …

New Hunter Minion - Dragonbane

Hmm, would I play a 6-mana Ragnaros that dealt 5 damage? Yes, yes I would. This is bonkers. Meta-defining. Low-cost, repeatable threat, with skill-based RNG. And it's a mech. Ursatron can tutor it. Almost every archetype will find room for …
