Just make the snake 5 mana. Slows the deck down. Cant play snake, bounce, snake on the same turn. Stops Thaddius from making snakes and bouncers cost 0 on same turn. Warlock deck is good but its like any other combo deck, you gotta set it up and someone else can get their combo first. It's not like nature shaman killing you on turn 6 the snake deck isnt really going to often pull off a win before turn 10.
In the higher ranks most of the games are vs Discard Warlock and Jade Rogue. These are perceived as the strongest decks and players in these brackets are trying to climb - players in diamond are always going to be playing what is believed to be the strongest decks. There's not as much experimentation going on with fewer players engaged in the mode, so discovery of other strong decks hasnt been as rapid. Deathrattle face hunter is really good for example against those two decks, but by the time it catches on the format is almost over for the month. It would be nice if Blizzard did a balance adjustment (ahem chamber of viscidius and jade telegram) but no indication its happening.
The countdown is because its a ranked mode that restarts on July 1st. There is a special questline for the New Age twist that is scheduled to run during July. This particular twist lasts more than 4 days.
I was surprised by this. I thought that purchasing the $80 Mega Bundle for Nathria secured me having the option of 4 heroes at least until the next set. This was really disappointing to me…
Battleground perks was not included in the mega bundle this year - it did previously. They just let you continue to use it for a couple months until they rolled out this new system.
looks like I got all my missing golden cards back but they took all the dust they awarded back too - didnt spend any of it didnt want to craft cards I figured they would return
All my honor rewards golden cards are gone, ie. Frostwolf Kennels, Dun Baldar Bridge, etc. I disenchanted my non-goldens previously. Lovely. Got 8000+ dust but missing all the non-craftables from the completed track.
9 legends in my mega bundle (1 golden). This is way better than I usually get.

Ok it's been a few months, they put out a big patch. Where's the new Scholar Jaina voices? Especially feeling ripped off for that skin when the new progression award from a Tavern Pass awards a nearly identical, better skin (also lacking new voices!).
Played Headmaster Kelthuzad. Played Professor Slate. Arcane shot an 8/8 minion. It died, no summon.
Slate makes your spells poisonous. Kelthuzad's text says if the spell destroys any minion summon them. So why doesnt a poisonous spell summon the minion?
I've been playing this deck a lot the last few days and my experience is the same. If you can coin out scrap imp and buff enough cards you can handle a lot of demon hunter matchups. You basically need to draw perfectly against DH but they are fun to beat.

Brode and Dodds created the game in the first place, he brought a bit more to the table than hype.

So tried this with Hunter.
Played Headmaster Kelthuzad. Played Professor Slate. Arcane shot an 8/8 minion. It died, no summon.

It spaces out content to keep the game interesting to make changes every month or two instead of waiting the length of an expansion.

Fiendish Servant is a common, so 80 dust to get both. You need to save up for that?
