What are your feelings about Entomb when Un'Goro arrives? I think the card will be near broken (at least in terms of value) against many Quest Decks, just imagine stealing any of the huge minions you get as rewards from quests, such as: Galvadon, Amara, Warden of Hope, Queen Carnassa, Barnabus the Stomper... Stealing any of those would be hyper sweet/disgusting, because of two reasons: first, while not that amazing, but they all have very good stats for their cost (8/8 for 5 mana), but of course the main reason is that their massive effects are battlecries, so the moment you play them you get the quest reward "by the face" (sure, you'll have to deal with the bonus for your enemy anyway, and you have to use Entomb and then draw this minions, but I hope you get the point... the spell is just getting a crazy boost).
I'm afraid of just bringing up the idea, but I'm pretty sure I'm not the first one with that rounding on your head, so I'd like to know what you people think about it. I have to say I've just assumed you can Entomb those minions cause I haven't read anything about the opposite, if I'm wrong just tell me please :'D
Oh man, haven't thought about that... dunno, if we still get shitloads of aggro neither Entomb or Convert would shine that much (well, Entomb tends to be at least decent against almost anything but hyperaggro with only small minions), but in a slower meta with a nice % of Quest Decks, those two spells could be bonkers. Convert would be a much faster option idd, but without the gtfo against the 8/8 minion. Nice catch there!
Except for the fact that Galvadon will most likely be spellproof this is a pretty good point
That's true, but on the other side, priest (especially Reno versions) tends to be one of the few classes that runs some kind of silence (and I think silence will get much better with this expansion, so we may see more of that) so then you can Entomb or Convert that big bad boy (not that big after silence, but you'll get the battlecry when you play it again anyway :P). But sure, I admit Galvadon may be trickier to steal than the others :)
Because Galvadon is most probably also stealthed (and then, if everything goes according to the pally, you're dead on spot), only one move puts him into the "can be stolen" before it hits you for Infinity+1. That's an old card generally considered terrible, that might start being seen with Un'Goro - Mass Dispel. Does anyone else think this spell is getting boosted (not sure if into the playable point, but might get al least close)?
EDIT:typo
I've seen some posts talking about the possible rise of Mass Dispel with this exp, which imo could be right but only if the meta actually gets much slower, cause it's true that there are some huge targets for it now in Un'Goro.
I don't know. Spending 4 mana not to kill any minion is a huge backdraft... I think Mass Dispel will be tested and later on removed from the decks, as it will still be a lackluster.
Mass Dispel will become staple in control priest I predict. The amount of buffed minions in this expac is crazy. Of course it will still and always be a dead card against aggro but that's the price of teching.
Granted it can be a dead card but priest now have some decent early and mid game plays which may help offput the slow nature of the card.

Perhaps, but you need mass dispell or one of the silence minions.
