The issue again is that whenever Priest gets on the Control side of things people just start throwing all sorts of complaints. Too slow, too boring to play against, too much random value and so on. The result is them constantly trying to force the Tempo archetype but failing every single time so far. That causes a lot of cards …

This card remains too slow. The one mana discount barely matters when the issue with the card is drawing it early enough. You are pretty much forced to run two copies of this if you want to draw it with any consistency. There was a point in doing it before because you could upgrade the Hero Power a second time …

A slightly sturdier [card]Lightwarden[/card] with less snowballing capabilities won't change Tempo Priest's fortunes. The issue with that archetype is not card quality but lack of card draw. Without that, they can print all the best possible Tempo minions in the world and the deck will still suck because it runs out of gas too easily and has a really hard …

It could be good if it wasn't for the rotation. Some of its most synergistic cards are leaving as it arrives in standard. [card]Shadowy Figure[/card] and [card]Wretched Reclaimer[/card] would be good with this. Without them, this card seems to have no place in the class. As always, all attempts at Tempo Priest will fail miserably until the archetype gets some …

Good on paper but completely irrelevant as Tempo/Silence Priest are dead on arrival without proper card draw. Also, [card]Inner Fire[/card] is gone which makes all health buffs a lot weaker. And targeting an enemy minion with this is always going to feel bad. Terrible.

How did Noz get worse?!

A 7 mana 8/8 >> 9 mana 8/8 with an effect that is irrelevant 90% of the time. Even if a 7 mana 8/8 is still not enough to make it into any competitive decks, it at least feels OK to play now.

On the meme side, he's now an …

My only reaction to this is feeling unnecessarily outraged by their decision to make Nozdormu even worse than he already is for the sake of a joke/meme. Every other Dragon Aspect got better but he got the [card]Boulderfist Ogre[/card] treatment: a pile of stats that does absolutely nothing. I'm just going to forget this whole thing and move on.

Is that the new Nozdormu? Really? What?! Why?! Why they treat Nozdormu like this? That card is horrendous! It does literally nothing! And when it does something, it just makes things worse for both players! It simply doesn't matter that he got a 2 mana cost decrease while keeping the 8/8 stats. It's just stats. High cost cards need to …

Even if they remove the health cap or just make him a regular +5 armor hero card, this won't be enough to make him competitive imo. He will become playable which is a very good thing but competing is a completely different story. Late game Warlock strategies are suffering a lot nowadays because of the constant self-damage from the hero …

It's okay if they believe replacing the Spell Damage Totem will be better for the future. But they could have buffed or reworked Searing Totem into something less awful. Paying two mana for a 1/1 that does nothing is terrible. It works for Paladin because they are inherently a buff based class and they summon 1/1s consistently. Shaman gets a …

I never said Rogue can't function without Edwin. I just think this new card doesn't look interesting or exciting to play with. It doesn't look very fun or rewarding. If you like the whole burgle thing then it's fine. But i'm not really into it. Making a big play with Edwin always felt good even if he got removed afterward. …

That is definitely a possibility. But some other adjustments could help offset that. I just don't like the idea of having a legendary card that's simply not playable in the class it supposedly belongs to. Their whole idea of forcing any sort of Tempo/Aggro/Buff Priest simply has not paid off so far. All the cards that were released for these …

What are you talking about? How is she not detrimental to Priest in her current state? You can't play her if you generate her from Galakrond. She is just going to waste one of your key removals in an extremely inefficient manner and could even wipe your whole board with a [card]Plague of Death[/card]. If she could only cast targeted …

Is Vanessa VanCleef the replacement for Edwin as the class legendary for Rogue in the core set? Copy a card my opponent played on a combo trigger... Really? Edwin was way too strong, i get it. But why these replacements to classic legendary cards need to be so meh? It was the same thing with [card]Natalie Seline[/card]. That card's only …

Control Priest is going to appreciate the new Malygos a lot. Instead of relying too much on spell generation, the class now will have access to a really good and reliable hand refill. The new Ysera is good but the dragon and Laughing Sister she generates are incredibly slow cards and undesirable in most situations. And the new Deathwing is …

Changing her to only cast targeted spells would be better imo. This would stop her from casting Tip the Scales and would also make her a viable card for Priest. Nobody even gave a thought if this would have any significance for Priest. That's because she is completely unviable for the class in this state. She can only be used …

I was expecting them to change [card]High Abbess Alura[/card] to only cast targeted spells. It would stop the whole [card]Tip the Scales[/card] nonsense and make her a lot more viable for Priest. There is no way to use her in any Priest deck because Priests really need their removal cards. Building a buff deck around her is simply not viable …

Junkbot should be fine in Tier 4. It isn't going to be a carry as it was in the past because token builds are pretty bad nowadays. He will work fine as a transition and stabilization unit. And fixing Brann + Khadgar is highly appreciated.

Yep. As i imagined, they are rotating the entirety of the Classic and Basic set. The rotating core set is a good thing but i'll wait and see what cards are going to be added to it before developing any interest of playing constructed again. The new Classic Mode is interesting but i'm not very excited about it. I have …

I hit level 67 today. Despite the initial hype, i didn't feel inclined to play ranked more than a few times after the launch of the mini-set. As such, i ended up only in Silver at the end of the last season. I'm completely burnt out of playing constructed, it seems. I returned to my suboptimal ways of playing and …
