Blizzard tried to print another "Fuck you, I win" card to empower noobs and suck in new money.
Glad to see they failed this time, instead of sticking us with another Shudderwock.
Yes, because Mecha'thun decks are soooooo easy to play just like Shudderwock. Ok but actually, this card is very different from Shudderwock and actually requires thinking, you cant just vomit your cards onto the board to make the combo work, you need to draw your whole deck, and empty your hand while holding onto specific combo cards.
Also im not sure why you think they failed, since there are several solid Mecha'thun decks.
Alot ppl say that the egg priest is not strong enough, but vs this card decks.. just put alot eggs in their deck and gg :D
It needs to be played in that specific order so the summoned Mecha'thun will take the damage from Ticking Abomination deathrattle.
To anyone actually complaining about this card: running Skulking Geist wrecks almost every Mecha'thun deck (notably not Priest). You could also play Warlock with their new demon project card and/or Gnomeferatu. A lucky Gnomeferatu wins you the game.
Problems being that some people want to play one of the other 8 classes and still win, and Gnomeferatu usually just helps burn the fat of the deck that the opponent wants to get rid of anyway.
Seems like the only mecha'thun deck Skulking Geist wrecks is druid?
My program ends... Your malfunction... begins...

You know, a year ago, if I were to design a combo card that guarentees a win, I would have made an insane condition like "empty board, empty hand, empty deck, and it's a 10 mana minion that has to die" and smirk at the impossibility of it.
To my utter amazement, the game has progressed to a level where this actually works - in multiple classes - as a semi-viable competetive deck.
I am looking at how awesome is your avatar pic and hope you didnt press that button 3 times.
Greed is what happened. Ben Brode, Hamilton Chu, and the rest of the original talent behind Hearthstone left a long time ago. ActiBlizz is just gonna milk the game as much as possible since they’re about to have competition with Gwent 1.0 coming in a few months, and Artifact launching in November.
I mean, they gave Druid Biology Project for fucks sake.
Competition with Gwent 1.0, ROFL. Seriously man, maybe for hardcore MTG fans it could be an good alternative, but for people who likes fun and Blizz design, it's like a big joke...
It’s pretty much settled. People are dropping mech decks and going full on Mecha’thun. Priest OTK’thun, Warlock OTK’thun, and the most successful: Druid OTK’thun.
Many have tried to counter the OTK’thun decks, but all have failed. Aggro cannot rush them down as they keep armoring up to unkillable levels and kill their shit. Can’t use Skulking Geist as the OTK’thun decks found other more effective ways to trigger the deathrattle without 1 mana spells. You can’t do anything, the decks are just way too good at control, heals to unkillable levels, and are immune to tech cards, and since cards like Deathlord and Dirty Rat are Wild exclusive, we’re fucked.
this aged well
At first I laughed at this card, thinking it was a meme.
Now I hate it with a deep, seething passion.
Shit I meant to say Starfall.
You won't be saying that weeks from now.
Priest Combo: Reckless Experimenter + Coffin Crasher + Ticking Abomination + Ticking Abomination.
Do not let your memes be dreams.
Seriously, this is glorious
