This card is totally out of control. The number of combos to use it as early game finisher is uncountable. There is absolutely no fun in playing vs these decks. There is no counter.
I agree. The most popular Warrior build right now can use this card after Galakrond for a combo that does at least 28 damage in face damage in a single turn (I think.) I hate losing to nonsense like that. You can literally out play your opponent the entire game and still lose because you can't play around some insane combo.
I play combo priest with a consistent 30-36 damage combo with leeroy now. This card is probably played in 60% of all decks now. I agree that this is way too much. Something has to be done with it
I mean he definitely is too strong but i feel like zilliax is even more op. according to hsreplay.net Leeroy is in 36.5% of the decks meanwhile zilliax is in 51%of the decks which means that on average there is a zilliax in every game.
I feel for you OP. I don’t agree and I do play leeroy myself but I definitely understand you.
I don’t think leeroy is unfun to play against and there are some counters. Hunter would deal with it using freeze trap, explosive trap (doesn’t work if he is galakrond buffed), misdirection or snipe. Mage can do it with vaporize. I think paladin has a secret counter too. And then of course there is taunts.
But for sure leeroy is everywhere right now and not all decks have good counters and I can understand how some may find it aggravating. So I wish you all the best but would personally change other more inherently toxic things

TBH those are counters only for noob players. Everyone knows how to trigger those secrets before playing Leeroy

Of course Leeroy could see the HOF in April. But these arguments are just outright wrong.
If you look at the Gala Warrior lists that have been employed by GM's Jarla and Glory recently, you will notice that the Leeroy package has been cut. The cards are not good individually. And Gala Warrior doesn't typically need a 28 point burst to win.

The RnG required to pull that off is extremely unlikely and borderline impossible to do with anything resembling consistency. You would have to gamble heavily on not drawing Leeroy in the first half of the game (or more), then trying to hit him out of the many other minions when you play Galakrond. Being able to God-Draw a massive combo on such a rarity is really not a big deal in a game like this.
True, but they did HOF all the even/odd mechanics 1 year before they rotated right? I still feel like Zilliax isn't that big of a deal but I suppose that is debatable. To be honest, next to Bloodmage Thalnos I thought these were some of the best designed cards in a way that they are not overpowered but fit in a lot of decks as a strong resource that can be used in different ways. If anything they should remove the magnetize keyword from zilliax although I always like playing it on mechanical whelp, even though that deck hasn't really seen play until the latest expansion.
I would like to see Leeroy HOF'd just because it's always there in (almost) every aggro deck. And I do understand that aggro decks need some sort of go to cards but leeroy has been around for so long and it's so tedious to face (for me at least).
why? so that people like you can keep playing their brainless game?
How is the presence of a finisher "brainless". Or are you one of those "aggro is brainless" tards? Name me one good player who doesn't play Aggro at some point or another?

HoF is now overdue. Period!!!

Zilliax is not a classic set card

Ok but it doesnt change a fact that zilliax is the strongest card in the game right now
Leeroy is a big nominee for Hall of Fame in April.

Leeroy Priest is hot garbage.

I've been saying that Leeroy, Bloodlust, and Savage Roar all need to be HoF'd this April. Get rid of the easy win conditions.
i get sick and tired of people like you making babycry topic because they lose go to the tread thats make for this it cals the SALT THREAD
Ye gads.... can you imagine still having to deal with that odd/even shenanigans right now?!
LoL!
Leave Leeroy alone.
why? so that people like you can keep playing their brainless game?
How is the presence of a finisher "brainless". Or are you one of those "aggro is brainless" tards? Name me one good player who doesn't play Aggro at some point or another?
What I'm reading here is that we should abolish aggro and combo builds? Yeah. That would make for a fun game.
Guys, I found the angry teenager.
