Card is fine ~ no where nearly as game breaking as it was a while ago and it's no longer a rogue crutch!

I think they have suggested cards like Ice Block and Malygos are prime candidates for the Hall of Fame. Depending on how many they're sending when the next set releases, I could see Gadgetzan Auctioneer leaving standard. I think there are other cards they're more concerned about, though.
No way. Auctioneer is the staple of miracle decks which are way too fun and not even strong right now. Why are you calling for HoF? If you just don't like the design of the card, don't play it.
Instead of HoFing Ice Block, they should make it like Rogue's secret Evasion.
LOL, No to Doomguard. Just because it's popular now, doesn't mean it always was this broken.
No to Mana Wyrm. It's not as broken as Tunnel Trogg.
No to Northshire Cleric. It's not even meta breaking. Although an auto-include for Priest, they don't have many 1 drops.
No to Auctioneer. It's a barely seen card in decks these days. It's mana cost justifies it's use.
No to Malygos. Just why? Why does this even need HoFing? Because of the one time you got OTK memed?
No to Alexstraza. We barely see the card. Just no.
People need to look at the reasons why the cards that were Hall of Famed, Hall of Famed. Why Azure Drake? Because it was an absolute auto-include in 99% of the decks (at the time) and had an amazing affect while being a good body AND it was a dragon. Sylvanas was also an absolute auto-include 6 drop in almost every deck. There aren't many "minion" stealing cards/effects and it being neutral made it fantastic. Ragnaros was auto-include. Power-Overwhelming was way too strong for a 1 mana card buff. There was very little downside. (Plus the combo with shadow flame). Ice Lance was way too OP for being a combo piece and costing only 1 mana. Although they could have nerfed it to just hit minions. And lastly Conceal. If conceal was still around and we have vicious fledgling, GL to you if you don't get your taunt in time. Also the Conceal + Auctioneer combo was broken.
As it stands right now, I don't see any cards cards that need to be thrown into Hall Of Fame. Maybe some soft nerfs. IE: Bonemare can buff less like +2/+3. Corridor cost going up to 9 or 10.
Jeez you really hate all these mage cards huh? lol
Archmage takes like 5 cards to make it useful as a combo. No. Just no.
Edwin hard counters are to silence, and hard removal. It still has to wait a turn to attack. So it leaves it open to be dealt with. No.
Shadow step isn't even broken...Whats the broken combo? Keleseth/Shadow step? I played tempo Rogue. A LOT. I can honestly say I got that combo like...less than 10 times in all the games i've played with it. So no.
I'm in favor of rotating this guy for two main reasons:
Miracle decks can still be played in Wild mode. Seriously, they can be very fun and viable in that format. He's had his time to shine, it's time for something new.
A card like this limits design possibilities for small little cantrip-style cards. I'd love to see something like the Spare Parts from GvG come back, but Auctioneer makes these cards problematic in Standard when not properly checked.

I'm so sick of this card.
Check out my Custom Undead Expansion!
...Or my Custom Elemental Expansion!
whys that?
It's very likely, they just don't want to completely gut miracle rogue. If they do HoF it, they'll make a replacement

lol, ice block first

Why ruin miracle rogue? This is a fine card. I agree that ice block needs to be HoF’ed for sure.
Uh no? Lol. Do people just ask for cards they want HoF'ed if they don't like it? I don't think people understand how Hall of Faming a card works.
If you care to make a post, maybe it would be an idea to try to explain something not simply:
HoF this
Reason: i'm sick of it
Just sounds like a spoiled child not getting his favourite dessert...
Kinda interesting which cards will Rotate to hall of fame not sure Auctioneer will go
My save bets would be:
Iceblock and Doomguard
Maybes:
Mana Wyrm Northshire Cleric Gadgetzan Auctioneer Malygos
Alexstraza Archmage Antonidas Edwin VanCleef Shadowstep
Mm you must've not started yet before Gadgetzan Auctioneer was nerfed.
Have you not played in awhile or something? While occasionally a tech choice for Priest or Druid, it is nowhere near the power it used to be.
in the meta where everyone runs tempo keleseth decks, Im real upset about auctioneer, lol come off it m8

Your constructive criticism and logical arguments are compelling. I'm convinced. Thank you OP for your enlightened contribution.
Anger is the punishment we give ourselves for someone else's mistake.
