I would say at least the upgrade cost seems decently high but... if thier playing a deck that can cast three spells a turn for a 5/5 then holding on to this and resurrecting a ton of stuff turn 7 or 8 is still pretty fucked.
Looks like we're having another Karazhan-style expansion in terms of changes made to the previous meta
I, for one, am glad that priest got this absurd card...after all, without a way to resurrect The Lich King, an Obsidian Statue, Ysera, and Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound in a single turn, who would play such an under-powered class?
Come on, priest was already crazy with its machine gun antics, but now it is getting an amazing anti-aggro addition to the dragon package, a twisting nether +, an OTK dragon enabler, and the perfect tool to make big priest even more obnoxious.
and here I thought Big Priest was just an experiment gone wrong that Blizzard won't continue to support because it'S uninteractive cheese of the highest caliber.
My expectations are always low but they manage to disappoint me everytime.
hey, at least we have a counter with Crushing Walls, right? right?
LIke, the only ay to even beat Big Priest without just smorcing them down was to just remove everything they summoned. BUt no, Priest decks are fun for everyone, that's why you should plpay those and only those
it's already strong enough unupgraded though.
Like, just imagine him Shadow essencing a Y'sharrj on 6 that puls something stupid and you miraculously manage to kill those two. He can just play this the turn after and win from there.
Don't worry they also printed the perfect card to counter even the most frightening diamond spellstone revival...and gave it to priest .
Psychic Scream
Control Warlock can destroy every big priest lol.
Goodluck clearing Y'Shaarj coming out of barnes on turn 4 when you have siphon soul on turn 6 and than dealing with another and than another, and ressurected all the board in the world. Yeah, good luck drawing siphon soul x2 and double twisting nether in first half of the deck. Don't worry, when you guldan (which probably won't summon anything BIG cause you will not have time to play anything because otherwise you're dead) you will get psychic scream and game over. You're left with your heropower and priest will resummon them again and again.
It will be REAL nightmare.
Good luck drawing Barnes every single game with not a single Draw Engine in your deck. Big Priest is all about luck.
Maybe I'm just unlucky but It happens to me too often I believe :) I hate big priest and hate knowing that they get new tools for clearing the board and ressurecting is game-over in so many cases... it just hurts they push this theme further.
Wow, priest is still getting insane cards even though it's the most powerful class as of now?
This actually fits perfect for DND, it takes diamonds to resurrect the dead.
are they trying to push big priest or dragon priest? I don't get it
BIG PRIEST META...
HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG
Priest vs Priest matches are going will be even more epic than now, huh? Ressurect all, shuffle all into his deck. Steal them with Archbishop. He does the same. What was the max turn number? :>
Resurrects different minions. feelsbadman no 4x Ysera
In the video they show it as an epic even though all the other stones are rares i dont know what to think anymore
Diamond... Resurect... Priest can heal... Diamond is unbreakable...
IS THIS A JOJO REFERENCE?
