I was not going to Say anything and Just let It go with respectful silence but since some *insert extremely offensive insult that I do not want to write so i don't get banned or whatever* decided to make a last complaint thread about her I figured (for the sake of balance) that i should make a positive thread about my favorite card
Not much to Say here,go look on the card's Page and you'll see why it's plain wrong to complain about this card being infinite value or oppressive.
An aggro/faster midrange deck has a lot of trouble against her i'll give you that but still decks like this are supposed to win before turn 9 or lose anyway so you are not entitled to Say anything
Anyone playing a slow grindy deck can only be excused for complaining about her if he (the player) has legit no understanding of how basic arithmetic works but then he should not be be playing the game at that point
I agree that such posts are very annoying to see especially when it has to do with your favorite cards. I for one will always remember the fun times playing as/against Jaina where I had to calculate math and make sure board clears, minion trades wouldn't bring up minions. Honestly was fun.
I remember playing with her during frozen throne launch, felt pretty good tbh. But then I found myself on the receiving end. My elemental shaman was superior to that elemental mage I was playing against, that is untill he played Jaina ofc. It was then that I learned, that this card feels absolutely terrible when you see her played by your opponent. Everything you did to him in that game mitigated by 1card that basically heals you to full, and makes even more healing due to that hero power. You can't really compare her to dk rexxar, because they feel completely different, but both are very frustrating to deal with. And it's not like wild doesn't exist guys, if you enjoy her, you can still play with her, just in a place where she's not as good as she used to be
Lifesteal on all elementals never really seemed to jive with the flavor of mage. Why lifesteal at all? Why on ALL elementals? If it was even just water elementals I might have understood. DK Jaina just felt so brainless at times.
i imagine this isn’t what you wanted to hear—if it makes you feel any better, take comfort in the fact I lost a match against her today as a control warrior and I had the mage down to 6 health for 5 turns before that BS lifesteal shenanigans began and I had to concede
but I love the quotes, and voice. it will be a new reason to play wild more for me. Don't care about the power. Just quotes and voice are awesome.

Memedeck-seeker. Always tries to build new decks. Hates tournements, streamers, netdecks and poor-o players. ah, but a tournement mode could be great !!!
I started playing Hearthstone right before K&C came out. Frost Lich Jaina was the first legendary I ever crafted. I will miss her being in standard. It was a pleasure.
While I have no personal feelings playing with/against her, I appreciate that she made Hearthstone a slightly more skill based game while she was here. Knowing how to play around her massively increases one's winrate and there's a reason we don't see her at high legend or tournaments. The pile of salt in the other thread makes me quite happy. It tells me the people who don't know were well punished throughout her existence in standard
You're not alone, of course. Never has there been a card rotation with this many iconic and powerful cards leaving. Many others are likely feeling the same for their own favorite archetypes. It's druid for me :)

Can’t say I will miss her at all.

As a control mage scumbag, I'll miss this card greatly. But the meta is moving away from this type of card, and that's healthy.
I don't say anything about card's power,

You can try to spice that thread up with positivity, I don't think this warrants a thread of its own. Locked.
