1,192 totalTitle says it all. If you can manage to defend yourself despite having your life total halved (perhaps more than once), you've earned the win. Having [runecard]Commander Ledros[/runecard] deal lethal damage at 1 HP means that if you don't have …
Quote From KANSAS I think the reason aggro is so good is because, basically, everything has haste and vigilance.
I understand what you mean, and I do suspect this makes balancing aggro harder than in …
Favorite moment in 2019: Explicit descriptions of class identities and some basic/classic set additions to refill for lost Hall of Fame cards
Hopes for 2020: Further revisiting of the classic set (especially for Priest) to try and codify those …
[card]Escaped Manasaber[/card] is interesting. You probably can't plan to get a lot of long-term value out of it - once it loses stealth your opponent will take it down hard - so the biggest question is which 6-drops do you …
For what it's worth, there are 20+ cards getting patched, and until we see those patch notes, it will be hard to assert that any previous strategy/champion is good/competitive.
They've said that golden versions are craftable once you earn them from the adventure, and the adventure is for purchase with money or gold.
[card]Winged Guardian[/card] seems great - fair stats, plus taunt, reborn, and evasion makes this a really compelling defensive tool.
[card]Aeon Reaver[/card] is a great removal tool. Most of the time, this will destroy whatever it targets, and in those …
Quote From YourPrivateNightmare What deck would even run this unironically?
Some deck for which casting lots of spells is important. Right now the only major payoff for that in standard is [card]Grave Horror[/card], but the …
I really like the design of the card symbol - clearly shows it comes from the Descent of Dragons adventure, and lays some UX groundwork for future adventure tie-in collectibles.
Most of these cards are also pretty cool, and …
I don’t believe that there’s a pro-Legendary bias - I’ve been playing a ton of Galakrond Priest and I get no shortage of non-Legendary minions.
That said, I can’t recall ever seeing it generate Invoke minions ([card]Fate Weaver[/card] or …
These nerfs do seem pretty weak, and it would have been nice to hear more from Blizzard about why these are the changes they're making, what (if anything) they're still monitoring, etc.. But I think there's enough here to make …
As far as I'm concerned, the 4 health is a much bigger issue than the 5 attack. It's very hard for control to clear 4 health in the midgame, making this card a lot of free tempo against control, and …
[card]Corrupt Elementalist[/card] remains a double invoke, meanwhile [card]Devoted Maniac[/card] is so awful in Galakrond Priest (due to nature of the Priest invoke) that Priest effectively has two fewer invoke activators than all the other classes.
Quote From YourPrivateNightmare oh and for you Bonuns....don't. So far Galakrond Priest seems weak, but it could become amazing in any meta where outressourcing your opponent is important, and I don't want another Rexxar/Dr. Boom situation. Delivery Drone …
This doesn't really solve the problem of getting bad minions like [card]Lightwell[/card] or [card]Test Subject[/card] (or, to a lesser extent, [card]Spirit of the Dead[/card]), which mostly act as a dead card and add no real tempo value even if you …
Quote From dapperdog The card is definitely busted. But being a neutral card means that I get to play a similarly busted card as do my opponent.
This way of thinking about neutral cards isn't …
Yeah, you may be right that making it a 5 mana 3/3 (or something more extreme) will nerf it out of play, but I don't really have a problem with that.
The comparison Horus made to [card]Corridor Creeper[/card] a …
I get why you think that, but I don't think that's the right view.
With your change, in the case where you're transforming a 1/1, you're getting 4/3 and 3/2 in stats for 5 mana. In terms of raw …
It should be much worse than [card]Oasis Surger[/card] because [card]Oasis Surger[/card] is a class card
[card]Corridor Creeper[/card] is a very apt comparison - they need to nerf [card]Faceless Corruptor[/card] out of existence they way they did [card]Corridor Creeper[/card]
