    My favorite 2019 moment in Hearthstone was probably the day DoD launched. I was so excited, I was counting down the minutes and started Hearthstone right when the set launched, I also got a pretty good amount of legendaries in my initial pack openings.

    What I am looking forward to the most in 2020 is probably the future of Battlegrounds. I am very interested to see where this mode goes, so far it has received a lot of attention and frequent updates. I hope this continues and that the mode can stay fun.

    Oh I see. I thought that the Kobolds automatically equipped the weapons.

    Wait, I am confused. Why would you spend 4 mana to make your two 2 mana weapons cost 0?

    So, are they just 1/1s that cannot attack? Or is Freeze a new keyword?

    Tombs of Terror and Dalaran Heist are terrible value for your gold. You are losing 400 gold for every wing you buy. If you are new I would suggest focusing more on packs and Galakrond's Awakening.

    Also Mass Hysteria in Classic is a bit too much lol. 

    This was also my first impression, but the issue with priest is that it is a control class, and as such it needs a good board clear. Right now there is no good board clear in the basic/classic set, so priest needs to get a new board clear every expansion. So instead of giving priest a new board clear every set, why not just give them a good board clear in the classic set?

    Although I don't think Mass Hysteria would be my board clear of choice to add to the classic set. I would have gone with something simpler, more reliable, and slightly less powerful. I think something more along the lines of Dragonfire Potion would be better. We need a board wipe for priest that plays a similar role as Flamestrike in mage. Flamestrike is not an OP card, and it is not always going to be a must-have in control mages, but it is always there if there isn't anything better.

    I like the cards, but I think we can straight up ditch the 'copy X card from your opponent' mechanic. Its just one too many for a basic set.

    A few observations;

    Meeting of minds is straight up busted. It essentially allows you complete information of your opponent's hand AND your choice of a card.

    Prosper in peace is interesting and kinda a nice spin, but since its condition for draw affects both sides, it punishes your opponent for having a board, making this almost broken in both aggro and control decks (essentially any deck). I would either raise its mana cost to 4-5, or straight up only allow draws on characters on your side, not the opponents.

    I'm a little torn over the barrier concept. Its very powerful, almost close to ice block levels of denial but without the 2 card restriction per deck. And this applies to both face and minions. I think restricting this to minions is a better idea.

    I really like the battle medic, to be honest, and hope to see it one day in standard for priest.

    I 100% agree with everything you have said here.

    Meeting of Minds is busted. It is better than Madame Lazul by a long shot. It is a spell and it is cheaper so it is way better for control priest who doesn't want to play a 3/2 minion but would rather play larger minions which are better for resurrecting. And being able to choose any card and see the entire hand is far better than only being able to see 3 cards. I think changing meeting of minds to discover a card instead of seeing the entire hand would make it a lot better.

    Prosper in peace doesn't care about your opponent's board, it already only draws a card for each friendly caracter. I think maybe you misread the card or maybe I am just misunderstanding you.

    And I also agree that the barrier mechanic should not be able to hit face. Ice Block maybe isn't a fair comparison though, I think something like Evasion or Time Out! would be better. But those are expansion cards which will rotate out of standard, this is something that will be in standard forever. And Ice Block got Hall of Famed not necessarily because it was super OP, but because it was always going to be in just about every mage deck every for all time. I think Barrier Priest might suffer the same fate.

    There is going to be a new adventure like the old ones. There will be 5 wings, 700 gold per wing, and 35 new cards.

    I think the first one may be free but I am a bit confused about that.

    The preorders are great value! You get way more for your dollar than if you were to just buy packs/cosmetics on a normal day.

    I don't want to do two in a row so ArngrimUndying can have this next one. (But I still get a point for guessing this)

    I tried this deck and over the very small number of games I played the deck just felt kind of confusing in some ways and just generally lacking. I feel like the deck didn't go all the way into hand, or big minions, or tokens, or control, or zoo/aggro and so it just felt really 'meh' throughout the whole game. It is like I can keep up with my opponent, but only sort of, and in the end I just lose because their strategy is just better than mine. 

    Could someone please enlighten me on this decks strategy?

    As far as I know there is no information about that.

    I guess we will just have to be surprised!

    Nope.

    If the next person doesn't get it right then I will add two extra lines to the riddle.

    Wrong again, but you are getting closer.

    I can give a hint if you want.
