Galakrond Control Warlock has been surprisingly not bad.

Quote From Mephisto

I know I sound like some flat-earther now :D

but yes, it seemed rigged.

Do you think Blizzard would actually do something like that? For example to keep winrates of certain decks in control.

Occam's Razor.

Is it bad luck? Or is there a secret algorithm designed to pit …

I'm apparently in the minority here, but I really dislike the balance strategy of late. I used to admire what a lot of people have whined about previously - back in the vanilla days, Blizzard were very reluctant to perform any direct balance changes.

That, in my opinion, is …

I had the same thought as well.

GalyLock is better than I gave it credit for, but I don't believe it will ever be able to be better than T2. (And I didn't even think it could be a T2 deck before).

Sometimes, spamming 3 minions multiple turns in a row just gets there against bad starts. Even when those minions are trash and cost 3+ …

Any version of Galakrond Shaman is the nuts.

I've had success with Vault Hunter and Control Warrior (feat. a small dragon package).

I suspect that Faceless Corruptor will be nerfed. And somehow Galakrond Shaman will be balanced. It may be as simple as making the Double Invoker cost 6 mana.

Great tips. And just a small expansion on your first point - your control deck is probably not going to do well. You don't know what you're trying to control yet. If you can accept that and just love playing Galakrond priest, then go for it!

Quote From Koetti

I wonder what Decks will run this.

You'll probably need to play ramp alongside this and I don't know if Token can afford doing that. On the other though it's a HUGE Buff, so might be worth it? Big Druid will definitely play this.

or you could just keep your curve …

Bombs, Albatross, Hakkar, etc.

There are incredibly niche uses, but uses nonetheless. Good for cards like this to exist. Even if they almost never see constructed play.

Quote From DarkFrostX

It can be if you just want thr lackey.

Because the "+1 attack" comes first, you need a valid target first before you play the card. If there's no target, there's no Invoke. Notice that Warlock's Fiendish Rites has them in the opposite order.

Quote From DarkFrostX

If it weren't for the lackey generation this would be a terrible card.

Not sure what kind of comment this is?

"If not for the effect of the card, this would be a terrible card."
You can literally say that about anything.

Meh. I'm surprised people think this card is good.

Why is this an effect that you want?

because it is a 2 mana 2/3 that adds a card to your hand.

Zola the Gorgon is a very good card, this is basically zola but for …

Also packs for the tavern brawl being borked a few weeks ago.

That's great. The more win cons for the highlander decks, the better. Especially for something like Highlander mage, who wasn't doing much anymore.

This card is excellent.

Meh. I'm surprised people think this card is good.

Why is this an effect that you want?

6 years, 3 months ago · on New Neutral Minion - Dragon Breeder

It's not a good egg. But it's an egg. They almost always see play somewhere.

This card scales really well.

(1) Will Warrior Galakrond be good?
- I think it has a good shot. I like that one quite a bit

(2) Will Warrior Galakrond want something like this?
- Harder to say until the whole set is fleshed out, but it seems reasonable.

Quote From frosthearth

The effect looks outrageous, but I'm not sure if the increased hand size is actually relevant. You still need to draw like mad to keep your hand full or play one card at a time and all that just do discount a mountain giant or play a huge demon. I'm not entirely certain of the …

This seems like it goes in every single archetype of warlock.
