this isn't exactly a nerf to make highlander decks less OP, this is just a hotfix to make the card more reasonable.
[card]Mounted Raptor[/card]?
Yes, it gave pirate warriors too much card advantage. An aggro deck should have strong tempo in the early game, but have bad card draw in the later game, but ancharrr allowed pirate warriors to get strong tempo and strong card draw which was too much.
I agree, these constant nerfs do make it hard to build a deck and keep it for a while. But if you don't do constant nerfs then the meta will get stale and everybody will hate the game, there is a little gray area and I think team 5 is just trying to find the right number of nerfs in …
I partly like this and partly don't, now there is a lot of indecision about whether or not I should disenchant the card or hold onto it. But at the same time it is nice to see more balanced nerfs.
Altar of Pantheon is not a very good card. This is just a 3 mana tap for 1 and those types of cards just don't see play. It can gain you life, but not enough to be worth it, and it does give you extra devotion, but so does any other card with a color.
Thessa's Oracle by itself …
Yeah, are we going to be getting a full adventure every two months in between every expansion? Are we basically going to have 6 sets a month instead of 3? Will these cards be craftable? Will they be necessary? Will the adventure still cost 700 gold per wing?
I am honestly a little worried that we might be getting …
Do you really think these nerfs are happening because someone made a bad deck and then complained about losing so much that blizzard caved? If blizzard were that easy to manipulate than things like buffs would have happened way sooner, and things like autosquelche or tournament mode would be here already.
Quote From Echo If we go by milling in terms of hearthstone, that was just making the opponent overdraw, I think that would be fair since most ways to print cards in this vein are just cards that'd draw both cards, which is something many decks would want it would still most likely decimate control decks, but I …
Eat to Extinction reminds me of Vraska's Contempt, except instead of gaining 2 life you get to surveil. Gaining 2 life wasn't really a big selling point, it was mainly played because you could exile a planeswalker as well as a creature, and you could do it at instant speed. If Vraska's Contempt was a good card, then this …
Dryad of Ilysian Grove is a nice ramp card. Being able to play double lands will be useful in the mid-game. I am not sure how good this card will be or if there will be any good decks using it, the effect is kind of generic and it isn't really obvious where you want to play him. But I …
Highlander mage is a good deck, it is just the wrong meta. Once the nerfs hit and different decks start being played mage might look a bit better.
Also, please no more secret mage, I don't want the deck to get any better than it already is in wild.
I have been on this site since it was Hearthstation and I must say this site has been far better than Hearthpwn since day 1.
A big thank you to all of the staff for the great site! I look forward to all of the changes in 2020!
I opened Kronx and I was super happy about it. However, I haven't really used him as much as I thought I would. I would wait and see how you feel about it later, try some galakrond decks without him and see what happens.
Siona, Captain of the Pyleas looks like a very useful tool for "aura" decks. She doesn't have the worst stats in the world, but the is able to semi-tutor you an aura, and she will pump out extra tokens for you to put the auras on. This card will help the consistency of the deck a lot because it both …
[card]Foe Reaper 4000[/card]?
It got 'replaced' you could say, by [card]cave hydra[/card]. But now it sees a ton of play in battlegrounds where it attacks a lot of minions, but not face.
I almost want to say [card]Leeroy Jenkins[/card] because the card was inspired by a WoW player, so the whole "going online" seems to fit with that. Also it got nerfed, so the "got shut down" could be a double meaning in that sense. But Leeroy goes face, he just does.
Yes please, there are some very confusing cards in here.
[card]icicle[/card]?
[card]Ice Lance[/card] used to be used to deal lots of burn damage the the opponent's face, but then it was moved the Hall of Fame. Now we have Icicle to replace it, but Icicle cannot hit your opponents face.
Vexing Gull isn't a very exciting creature. It won't be impactful enough to be played in constructed (Faerie Duelist, or Faerie Vandal are just better). But in limited, like most flyers, it isn't a bad card.
Purphoros's Intervention is like Banefire only it hits creatures harder and players softer. Your opponent is able to block the creature …
