I've crafted lord jaraxxus...oh well
Majordomo Executus was 2 op so blizzard had 2 release a nerf. kappa.
Problem is Rogue decks at the moment focus on making the most of that Hero Power with surprise damage vis a vis Deadly Poison, Tinker's Sharpsword Oil, Southsea Deckhand and Blade Flurry, and it works pretty well. While you could make a more general Rogue deck that focuses around stealing the opponents power, that would require losing your single greatest AoE effect, one of your better sources of both burst and spot removal, AND the deck as a whole would have to compensate for 8 different play styles. Fits better with classes that already build decks with a lot of breathing room, like Warlock and Mage.
Warlocks and mages should never give up there hero power imo. Warlocks have arguably the best hero power in the game and the mage's ability to pick there target to ping with no side effects is great. If anything this is a way to get those classes hero power for other classes. TGT has introduced lots of minions that heal so that mitigates damage from warlock ability. Aoe can come from Dark Iron Skulker or even Chillmaw. And it does give rogues a chance to make a new type of deck since inspire is so situational only for rogues.
Warriors can copy Fireblast to use on their Patron Warriors. Priests can use Healing Totem with Nothern Cleric. Many interested combos can come out.
feels best to use this in druid and it may sound strange to say, control paladin/dragon paladin. in those decks, you don't really care about your 1/1's so swaping out your power for say, heal 2 against priest or draw from warlock is pretty nice.
Not every class can live long enough to play it and become hunter... BibleThump
good match for this card:
warrior vs warlock.
at first start of by getting armor then copy the warlock ability for draw or copy lord jaraxxus ability.
Bad match for this card:
same class or shaman.
For those who cant afford Justicar Trueheart, which i anticipate would be used widely. Just copy upgraded Hero power.
PS. I voted for this card to be revealed. but majority decided to choose blood elf chick with shiny tits.
Also rogue.
Wait. I thought this would allow for totally new decks at first but this only works in tournaments.
the expansion is called the grand tournament, the cards can be used as you wish xD
lol wat? This is hilariously awesome.
