Quote from Poghy >>

4/8 aka 50% of the top 8 still used Yogg, and Im pretty sure its not because they were "testing" it.

Some of the best players decided that Yogg is still competitive.

GG Team 5, it should have been nerfed to 12 mana, so you can still have FUN with it. But no, we will see that clown at Blizzcon, yay!

have you seen the games? yogg was played only twice I believe and it was 10 mana do nothing, he even killed himself at first spell once. I'm sure the players that brought it regret their decision, it was pretty hard to evaluate if to bring it or not 2 days after the nerf, the number at NA last call will be lower then 4 for sure.

total number of spells casted by yogg at the last call EU 4, out of 2 yoggs, of which 2 killed yogg. 20 mana for 4 random spells, nice card..

Congrats to Pavel, well deserved. I like players who build unusual decks.

Sad for RDU. Again

I really don't understand the people who bring decks like Freeze mage, when it was proven times and times again that they(the decks) are horribly bad . In fact it's so bad that you can lose 3 games in a row without even standing a chance (looking at GeargeC vs DrHippi final) .

They just want to show off or what ?

Because they believe that thier very high level play increases the win rate to a point where it is better than whatever other dwck would be in the fourth or fifth slot. Just because it CAN get swept, doesn't mean that it is likely to. It can still need a strong tournament deck.

he lost one game (game 3 ) and won 1 game (game 4) with freeze mage. I would hardly call 1-1 being destroyed. If anything it performed better then his other decks against Pavel.

I think georgec's worst deck was the hunter, you can go and check the games, but I'm pretty sure it was the lowest winrate deck and lost him at least 3 games during the 2 series.

I thought about the finals against dr hippi and mabey the fact that hippi himself is a VERY experienced freeze mage player helped him to go 3-0.

"Paladin and priests remain at the bottom".

Well, yes, but there is a slightly but noticeable difference between being chosen by one player and not being chosen at all (yet again), which is the case for priest.

Paladin and priests remain at the bottom, right, but there is a chasm even between priest and paladin. Priest remains a sub-class.

Hearthstone consists of 8 classes and a very bad joke. Priest classic/basic set need a good rework in order to make it a real class.
