Curious but how is last years champion Tom60229 still allowed to compete Singapore after in the HCT after his team was disqualified for cheating? 

I was honestly expecting the price change to be a drop to the older sets to entice new players to start. Instead they are actually raising prices? The timing with all the complaints from both community and pro players could not be worse. From a marketing / pr stand point is a really bad choice, I have friends that are new to the game that find it interesting but the entry  fee is turning many away and this will do so even more. There are so many better ways to make profit off the game; more content released steadily,  more hero skins, special boardsm could even do card backs, are all better ways to make money rather than just being lazy and increasing the cost on existing / new things. 

This card is going to be Finja's best friend. It is pretty insane. Solid stat line (way better than the kara buff cards), not too expensive so allows for combo potential, and to top it off it's a beast that can be picked up with curator. It pretty much seems like a better enhance-o-mechano  for murlocs

 I don't know if this is supposed to be a joke or not, but seriously how could you not include Madam Goya !?

There are so many good synergies with the ragers and ferryman not to include her. course if you really want to high roll you could even pull the weasel. Clearly a much better card than Barnes will ever hope to be, and this will be so high roll people wont even remember tuskar totemic pre nruf. Fix this and I have no doubt this deck will be ez tier 1 on tempostorm.com

So if it lets you target your own minions, seems like some interesting combos can be done with a lot of cards such as Sylvanas, Chillmaw, Tentacle of n'zoth and explosive sheep (for wild). 

Seems like an interesting card for Yogg and Load hunter, especially with the new cloaked huntress. It's also a big minion so it can often win jousts.

It's if you have  any minion with spell power, only the totem with spell power would grant you the bonus attack.

I'm also dipping my toes into Quest Paladin lists, and I must say, it's a delight to play. This list is pretty identical to the one I'm using, but I'm using Truesilver Champion and Consecration to survive the Murloc decks that currently see play.

I'm not a fan of Prismatic Lens, because ideally, you'd still be working hard to complete the Quest, and Lens is too much of a tempo-loss, with too high of chance to miss the boat completely on your draws. Mind you, Prismatic Lens works great if you want to discount a big spell (Tip the Scales), or if you want to discount big minions (Desperate Measures into Tirion Fordring), for example. This deck can do neither.

Here are the decklists

Spiteful Summoner "nerf" isn't going to affect the deck at all.  Played against about a two dozen of them last night on ladder and guess what - a turn 7 Summoner into Tyrantus feels just as terrible.

Are there any quality of life improvements planned for 2017? I'm specifically hoping to see a fix to the mobile disconnect issue (e.g. you don't know you've disconnected until it's too late, you have to restart the client, and by the time you reconnect it's two turns later and you've lost)

Why does it say to mulligan for slam but there is no slam in the deck? Also I find frothing doesnt fit the deck at all. You dont need early game threats as a control deck, you need board clears and hard removal. I would say take it out and add a slam or other solid removal cards. Also Alexstrazsa is better than Ysera because it gets you closer to your condition (not draw but health). 

My fingers are crossed for the possibility of some kind of Magma Rager elemental synergy concede deck. That single win out of 27 losses against Pirate Warrior will be glorious.

Big announcement : He's coming out of the closet .

The top deck and 11th deck were within 3% win-rate of each other with a high end of 52%.

I wonder how much variation that includes, though... Because if 10 out of 11 of those decks were all Pirate Warrior with one or two different tech cards, then the statistic isn't that valuable. I'm sure it probably included more than one deck, but the question I'd like to know is, "How many?" Or, how many of those top 10 decks aren't variations on the same deck, with just a card or two different?

Blizzard is so guarded with its stats. I guess I can see why, because revealing some things would cause the community to go apeshit, while other things might reinforce negative perceptions. I just don't like it when they get all tricky-tricky with stats like this one, because you know there's a narrative they're trying to tell us. It's like they pick the narrative and then go looking for stats that appear to back that narrative up.

Ok thx :D
