The word "playable" is tripping me up. Why not say "Corrupt a card in your opponent's hand." We're going to need some gameplay clarification, like if the card knows it can only corrupt stuff with a mana cost equal or less than your opponent's next turn. If your opponent is holding expensive cards on turn …

First off: you're conflating the various types of mill. There are cards that directly burn (e.g., [card]Gnomeferatu[/card], [card]Fel Reaver[/card]) and there are cards that force your opponent to draw which will result in draw if they have too many cards. "Milling" is a reference to the original MtG card Millstone which mechanically was like the former, its just that in …

One of the things I've never forgiven MtG for is making dual lands so rare/expensive. I can sympathize with making game-changing cards like planeswalkers or those gods cards mythic, but dual lands are essentially just an insurance policy against getting a bad shuffle. Making them more scarce--and effectively rising the street price of all competitive non-mono decks--always seemed like a …

Quote From Author

Thus far, Dragon Paladin, both in Highlander and non-Highlander variants, looks to be a disaster, fit only for placement in Tier 4.

 

But I'm having fun with it anyway, so you can take your data and go home, Mr. Negativity! la la la can't hear …

[quote from="frosthearth"]The deck is very fun, but it loses to the main meta contenders, deathrattle rogue and galakrond shaman, as well as zoo warlock. [/quote]

Thanks for confirming my suspicions--I was wondering last night what could come of combining quest druid with either Ysara or Alexstrasza, and I figured they were entertaining possibilities but not anything that could compete …

+1 for making a clever and innovative deck

-1 for not naming it "Tess & 'Tross". :-P

[quote from="FrostyFeet"]And since you may be wondering: Galakrond Shaman is still the best that the class has to offer, although it's far from the beast it used to be. Those seemingly small nerfs turned out to have an impact after all.[/quote]

I am far from convinced. Let's talk again next weekend, after the new season starts and all …

Quote From Fisguinho

im really scare about the mogu "nerf", it's price will still be reduced and it just means that now they can evolve into a 10 mana minion

I was at first too, until someone pointed out that its basically just 1 less than [card]Sea Giant[/card] now, and that's never really taken off …

I mean they tried...

DID they, though? I mean: [card]Faceless Corrupter[/card] is in 55% of all ladder decks right now with a Played Winrate of 53%, and their solution was to reduce its attack by 1. I don't know about you, but I'm keeping my 5 mana double 4/4s. And all the …

LOL; this just sounds broken for this brawl.

Quote From CursedParrot

Should the pity timer be lower?

No.

Me too. As near as I can tell, you start with [card]Dragonrider Talritha[/card] and then go either

• Pure (needs at least 2x [card]Lightforged Crusader[/card], 2x [card]Cathedral Gargoyle[/card], and [card]Nozdormu the Timeless[/card]),
• Highlander (needs at least [card]Frizz Kindleroost[/card], [card]Dragonqueen Alexstrasza[/card], and [card]Zephrys the Great[/card]), or
• Handbuff (needs at least [card]Frizz Kindleroost[/card], 2x [card]Cathedral Gargoyle[/card], and 2x [card]Dragon …

Quote From sicknantos

Faceless Corruptor is pretty strong but I'm not convinced it's OP yet. People keep saying it's a 5-mana 10/8, but you need to spend at least 1-mana to produce a minion or token of some kind for Faceless to target.

So 5 mana 10/8 rush = OP, but 6 mana 10/8 rush …

Quote From Zeratia

Very Nice! I would totally add Tentacled Menace to this :P

As rewarding as it is to draw a card and reduce it to 1 mana, I think it's more valuable to starve your opponent from as many draws as possible. You are entirely reliant on them getting as many dead draws …

I think Galakrond Priest has potential in theory, its just high-rolly and also getting drowned out by other more efficient decks. The game needs to last long--ideally into fatigue--for the HP to be meaningful, and right now most games are closing out much much sooner, so it ends up depending on exactly which random minions you received. If you roll …

You said "fun" decks! There's nothing fun about Galakrond Shaman decks--ladder is already infested with them. :-(

FINALLY. Why couldn't we have had this card in the days of odd warrior?

This card would be incredible at 2 mana 1/2. For 3 mana, though, it has a lot of competition, and it seems to ubiquitous to want to run over say frothing berserker or [card]Smolderthorn lancer[/card] or even [card]livewire lance[/card].

So the combo is: hope to draw Leroy off Galakrond and then exactly Leeroy, Inner Rage, Rampage, Bloodsworn into 2 15/1s with charge?

I like the synergy between Galakrond and Quest, but I think you need to either commit to the combo or the value from the quest. If the combo: I think you want to ditch all the …

They are pretty cards, but OMG are these overpriced. I thought about buying the kitties for my wife, but $40 for 5 playable cards and 2 tokens? And then I'd need to spend another ~$40 to build a playable deck around them? I get that this is moreso a collector's item than utility, but they could have at least include …
