Or maybe you're staying rank 5 where it's safe to play mill rogue, Idk :-) Because I also didn't see any mill rogues on legend rank. Same decks everywhere but no mill rogue. I played like over hundred hours in last 2 weeks. I met maybe 1 or 2. (high ranks and legend).
This will give deck trackers a run for their money.
This not only obliterates combo decks but it can also ensure that your opponent has no answer to a big power swing of yours. And as a result its a game winning card. What I am saying is it can be used as the first card of the turn..but it can also be the last..
So..the idea is you play 8 mana worth of stuff but you have no removal or big threats in your hand..so you play this and..now your opponent has nothing to deal with the board you just created..
This card will spawn several salt threads..
It is combo disruption, and by far the best..,but the part i see CRAZY is changing the deck too....
In some cases it is a downside, you are giving your opponent a card of your deck you do know about it.... but the issue comes with Brann.
You play that in Bran in turn 5 and you just togwagled your opponent for the rest of the game AND stole their hand! Even the old MUCH slower toggwagle combo was a Tier 2 deck.
And with your deck only having removal spells and draw he can not do anything at all, you just won in turn 5....
With my OTK murloc paladin sometimes i can OTK turn 4-6, but i need to get quite lucky for that to happen and there is a LOT of disruption possible (taunts , armor etc..)
This is a reliable turn 5 win,,,, For hyper agro decks, control priest is THE WORST match up. You will never kill him by 5...
Also i like priest my raza deck is 80% golden and have around 10 golden legendaries of it.... but this is insane...
I will have prefered something more simple against combo, like battlecry your oponenent can not play more than 2 cards next turn....
But in standard the card is good, but not meta defining so i do not see them hammering the nerf hard enough, unless the Chinese Wild comunity demands it. (larger server and with more wild servers that the other 3 combined)
saying that you will always have bran and this on 5 lol
No, because when you use brann and swap hero powers it swaps back double after so you are just wasting a turn using brann and this.
Not everyone is running resurrect priest you know. Personally i have much more fun with reno dragon/reno n'zoth priest and those have no way to win vs quest mage. Until now.
I think we should look into this card as ultra Meta defining. There will be less combo decks. --> So there will be more control decks. --> So there will be less aggro decks. Maybe big priests will be tempted to stop playing big priests thanks to this card.
I would like to play Meta with slow control decks, which only wincondition is outvalue opponent.
I don't even know what to say, you want to only play 30 min long boring games with expensive decks?
If I play 30 minutes match, where it's hard to say who is the winner, it's not boring or me.
The one problem is -> Less combo decks -> more Razakus priest -> less control decks -> More aggro or quest mage and Razakus priest only decks that remain.
Oh god
I'm not talking about res priest xD
This card convinced me to not play Hearthstone until 2022. Bye.
Bye.
We are not gonna miss you
Mindrender Illucia This is the card that convinced me to buy this expansion, the mega bundle..
I thought Blizzard didn't like hand disruption but hey, here is the ultimate combo breaker...
What are you talking about? Priest is one of the most frustrating matchup for Quest mage: Convincing infiltrator and/or Obsidian statue + resses and you'll never gonna pull off the combo unless you get very lucky with polymorphs early on. Real cancer is secret mage.
I don't think he's talking about wild.
