The 20/20 body is pretty unspectular against Highlander Priest. Even doe it has a use since the Priest has to safe a Death or his Anduin to deal with it when u get the candles. So this mean´s he will be careful using death early on. The only thing that makes it so strong is that the Priest losses his Kazakus to deal with the board which is HUGE against a Tempo Deck since u can´t deal with the board anymore.
Exactly. It can be removed easily, but Highlander Priest will have one hard removal less, so that Cobalt Scalebane is a little bit safer now. Plus no Raza means no machine gun later on.
Well I'm not sure about that. The time The Darkness awakens, your opponent most likely has already drawn shadowword pain or even shadowreaper ready to answer your 20/20...
For sure it will have some impact.
And just thinking about the possibility your opponent draws all 3 candles in a row at turn 4 is worth trying it out :D
When people say "the darkness counters razakus priest", they mean that both raza and kazakus won't be active because they will have 3 candles in their deck, rather than meaning that the 20/20 will kill the priest. Or maybe I misunderstood what you meant with the post :)

I agree with both of you. It will delay his game and weaken his deck but imo not hardcounter it. So all in all it's a pretty good balanced card :)
Control warlock, 4Ala'kirs combo OTK shaman, casino mage, recruit 4 druid and some mages. Also wanna try King Togwaggle-Explore Un'goro combo. Also miracle and malygos rogues. Probably I even wanna play Malygos Warrior in wild.
I have about 6 vastly different mage decks theorycrafted and I'm going to try them all out.
Well I'm super skeptical about Aluneth. I mean it's a really awkward card... For controll mage the drawback of fatigue is very high and for tempo mage it's too slow. It would be a completely different story if it had 1 atack and you could kind of controll the carddraw. Or if it would cost 5 mana and fit into tempo mage. As I said I'm really insecure about this card...
I agree completely. You're definitely not wrong. That's why I want to try it in a tempo deck with as only goal to kill the enemy faster than you fatigue yourself.
That's quite a deck building challenge, but Mage has some of the most pro-active low-cost cards and I'm keen on finding out whether anyone can make it work. I'd gladly partake in this adventure.
But honestly, #1 for me is a big spell / elemental combined archetype with the big 5/5 board finisher by Alanna.

The easiest to build for me will be Quest Warlock and Quest Paladin, as I have all the bad legendaries needed for those :D
I'll also try to build a Control Paladin with the new legendaries for sure...excited to try to build Totem Shaman too, might even try out totemic might hahah
Usually I'm not pessimistic and I'd love seeing shaman succeed only because of thrall is my first golden hero, but it's to be feared that totem mechanic will be as dead as freeze mechanic already is...
I really want to try out some crazy things with shaman... Maybe Control Shaman with new cards... Or that Ala'kir combo... Even Mill Shaman with Grumble, Murmuring Elemental and Coldlight could be fun... who knows?

Yeah nostalgia forces me to try out totem shaman. But I don't think it will gonna work out... The effort is as high as exodia paladin but the reward isn't ;)

That one I almost forgot! Love the idea behind Exodia Paly... Would be amazing if it worked out...

No minion hunter, control, hand, disco and zoo/demon lock. If I can afford to craft or get enough stuff from packs, some form of dragon priest and a rogue deck (I have yet to play either of these classes, so I think now is the time given their STR)
Looks like Miracle Rogue will finally get an upgrade. Who knows, maybe Blade Flurry will become viable again. There are so many cards I want to try out with the new legendary weapon

I've no clue what I'm doing...
Tempo Rouge
Don't mind me just passing by
Quest warlock baby!
And also looking forward to trying out a rin deck might be busted might be garbo who knows

1) All things Paladin. A Handbuff Paladin using Val'anyr, Quest Paladin using Lynessa Sunsorrow, and some funky control using Call to Arms.
2) Deathrattle Hunter using Kathrena Winterwisp to pull out King Krush ;)
3) Something to do with The Darkness. The memes are just too strong with that card and it has the chance to be viable.
After that it'll depend on what cool decks emerge after everyone has a chance to play with the new cards and the meta starts to settle.
For me, it will be pack dependent... but I hope to be able to test my favorites:
1) Rogue (Miracle > Weapon/Control > Tempo)
2) Quest druid/big druid/maly druid/Aviana in wild
3) Control warrior/warlock
4) Dragon priest (both midrange and control archetypes)
5) Anything hunter, simply because I love the DK card and the concept of minion-less hunter. Yogg Hunter was one of my all time favorites.

Kingsbane Rogue.

Fear Can't kill you, but...
I've always had fun with Evolve Shaman. I might even try to use The Runespear and let the RNG gods take me to victory.
...until they fail me over and over again, then I'll join the priest cancer haha. Or maybe I'll have fun with rogue, since that's my only golden hero.

Just after opening packs I'm running to craft the missing rogue cards I need to build this Kingsbane Miracle deck: http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/976762-competitive-kingsbane-miracle-rogue
