Unnecessary and tbh you just sound salty about certain cards. The game doesn't need an additional keyword just because you don't like losing to shaman.

Fiery war axe is fine...

Leeroy and Alex are possible though.

But this is a dumb thread anyways.

What do you mean the idea comes from mtg moxes...this is just a re-stated Darnassus Aspirant lol.

And FYI blatantly incredibly OP since you didn't specify "empty" mana crystal so this is like playing a Coin and Wild Growth combined for 0 mana.

Hey fellow Shamans, what do you guys think of the following deck? http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/683194-jade-nzoth-shaman

I wrote a write-up for it too but I'm imagining that we have a lot of good non-minion tools for controlling the early game now. What's even better is that 2 of those new tools (Jade Claws and Jade Lightning) summon a minion on their own anyways to help us out! Why is having non-minion control so important you ask? The answer is very simply Healing Wave. Probably the hands down best healing card in the game if there could be a strong and reliable deck built to ensure it wins the joust. I think we may have finally gotten there with this latest expansion. Take a look and let me know what you think, either here or in the deck thread. I would really appreciate any and all feedback! Cheers!

Really not as great as people think it is. A dragon deck has like 8 dragons on average. Assuming you play 2 of them in your first 5 turns and play this on curve, you're looking at less than 1/3 odds of hitting a dragon on your first draw. It's not a bad card any means, still comes out to around ancient of lore value usually, but it's just not amazing either.

At first glance the most glaring weakness is the lack of a win condition. I don't think in this meta you will win many games just trying to out value your opponent with midrange minions alone. Also elemental destruction is not a good card for a deck that relies on board presence, which your deck will require to win by the looks of it. I'd swap it for maelstrom portals and throw in some azure drakes.

So this seems like it would be amazing in a grimy goons deck.

Even if you didn't make a mistake it's still a petty thing to be batching about.

This card isn't anywhere as flexible/staple as Barnes....but it definitely could see a strong use in certain niche decks. Decks that can function with "spell minions" could guarantee pulling something big out of the deck. A control shaman for instance could shuffle in a feral spirit or even a totem from hero power and pull out a big monster. Healing waves and all their low mana board clear could keep them alive during the early game too. Seems like there is potential. Time will tell.

Wait so is the pull from the deck random or do you get to choose? If you do in fact get to choose this card is very clearly broken because you literally just "ramp" out your strongest monster on turn 6, let alone the combos possible with Malygos and such. If it's random then yeah, nothing to exciting about it.

Shaman would be the easiest abuser by following up with Elemental Destruction and hoping for at least two 5 damage hits.

Priest can also do it with this + Auchenai Soulpriest + Circle of Healing + Flash Heal.

Card remains balanced because to trigger the OTK you have to be able to keep your opponent's entire board clear before playing the combo otherwise you don't kill them and they just ram your face in next turn.

(Sorry for double-post I messed up inserting the image earlier. Content remained the exact same though)

Hmm, if he follows casting rules such that you can't flame lance one of your own minions, shouldn't it also follow that the random spells don't draw from any uncastable spells, for example casting execute if no damaged minions on board? Blizz stated it's possible for him to cast untargetable spells that would fizzle. :(

This deck helped me get laid.
