I can't be the only person that thought he was a duck for the longest time.
Thalnos can be repleaced by Kobold Geomancer who have better stats for the same mana and you will save 1600 dust from creating him just to draw one card. :)
I hope you're trolling lol
In some decks, Kobold works, like shaman for example. In decks like Rogue or Mage, they need Thalnos
Best legendary in the game, prove me wrong.
Although he's a cheap combo card for AoE spells and just damage spells such as fireball in general, and can draw you a card, I don't think he's THAT amazing altogether. If you look at his combined value, you should really see him as a mixup of loot hoarder and kobold geomancer. He makes a game winning difference sometimes, but if you don't draw him generally you're still fine. The combined value of Thalnos' stuff is probably around 2.5 - 3 mana.
If we look at a legendary like Tirion, not only do you have a super powerful lategame drop that requires instant removal or at least a ping to prevent the divine shield from protecting him when he hits a big minion, his strength even persists through his death where you equip a 5/3 weapon, which is essentially 15 damage over the course of 3 turns. On top of that, his taunt forces your opponent to deal with him or else you'll take board control easily. Taking into account the taunt and divine shield his stats alone with that are already worth about 8 mana, and then equipping an arcanite reaper with 1 extra durability adds about 6 mana to the value, so I'd say Tirion is much better. Generally if he isn't drawn you can't win the lategame properly either, in my experience.
Tirion's a class card, therefore only one class can utilize him. Thalnos is used in about 3 classes, which gives him versatility, so I put him above Tirion.
Dr. Boom is the best wild card.
Blood Mage is one of the best ladder/standard cards
Are YOU MOCKING ME
Leeroy Jenkins comes pretty close
Sylvanas Windrunner
Ragnaros the Firelord
Thalnos is better than both sylvanas and ragnaros, especially in this meta where you can die on turn 5.
Top 3 Legionaries, in no particular order:
Sylvanas Windrunner
Bloodmage Thalnos
Ragnaros the Firelord
Had no idea why this card was good. Once I discovered him through Journey Below, I felt that this was a must craft. Best experience EVER. You need to have this card.
Alright just got her from a 7 pack today
he*
*Him
Totay I had crafted him. My first legendary that I crafted.
Ppl always ask "What card can i use instead of Thalnos" and some answer Loot Hoarder or some spellpower card....but the truth is you can't replace it like that , this card is just so much better , the cycle AND the spellpower can be the difference between win and lose ,take tempo mage for example ..this guy often decides the boardclear or the lethal whit the +1 and the cycle for the last spell , this is definitely a safe legendary to craft because it can be put in alot of decks just to fill a spot. If you play mage atleast this card is a must have , i was lucky enough to get it from a pack ^^
(edit: Not freeze mage they run Thalnos and Loot Hoarder)
