How the fuck are there people who play Highlander Priest in rank 18? I mean, if you can afford this tier 1 deck and arent ******** how are you STILL at rank 18? and how are there so many of you? You have 400,000 dust but cant get out of the "beginner" level ranks? And why do I never run into anyone without a $900 deck? There's got to be other people with normal decks but where are they?

 Wild pyromancer + plague scientist is pretty good

Play him in a big priest deck and there are a few others he fits into, but don't use him in a deck that heavily utilizes strong battlecries

Not sure if serious, but I'll have to assume so :)

What I mean by swing RNG is that you have a very low chance of drawing Keleseth, and drawing him early affects your winrate enormously, more so than possibly any other card in the game. This is different from drawing for example Valeera in MIracle Rogue, because by the time you can play that card you've likely drawn through a lot of your deck, so luck is less of a factor. It's also different from a card like Frostbolt, as the difference of drawing Frostbolt early as opposed to late is not nearly as great (plus Frostbolt isn't a 1-of). Lastly it doesn't create any meaningful choice, since if you have Keleseth you will snap-play it 99% of the time without a second thought. 

Balanced doesn't mean fun. If Hearthstone games were decided by a single coin flip, that would be balanced too, but it wouldn't be fun. Cards like Keleseth brings the game closer to flipping coins, where the outcome is no longer decided by good decisions taken over the course of several turns, but by whether or not your got lucky with your opening hand. There are countless other cards that also play out like this, but Keleseth might be the worst offender at the moment.

Agree with this.  Very poorly designed card.

But I do play 3 different decks currently that use the card. As the aggresive tempo style deck is a playstyle I enjoy so I try not to get too hung up on how swingy the card is when drawn early.

 Well it's kind of weird how you guys mis use well known terms. The chance to draw a card is of course a form of RNG but it is not an aspect of Prince Keleseth. It is an aspect of every card in every card game . If you do make remarks on it than you shouldn't refer to it as RNG because you imply this is something unique to Prince Keleseth.It is an aspect of all cards in all card games :) Further is the choice you make not if you play Keleseth when drawn. It is in the deckbuilding. When new cartds are released Keleseth will add new options to every single card that comes out. Not many cards have that kind of versatility in the game. Nzoth is probably the most versatile, well designed and well balanced card in Hearthstone to date. I think Keleseth is in the same league. Nzoth is longer around and  for sure the better design of the two but not with lightyears between them like there is between nzoth and almost every card. Keleseth's effect changes the core of the game very subtle when played: The raw stats of the cards in your deck.  That is so freaking straightfgorward and absolutely not random. Keleseth is card with max strategic possibilities. Finally a non-RNG powerhouse! Intelligent players will benefit the most from Keleseth and that is what every card should be like. Hearthstone would be such a great game with this kind of cards and without all the RNG bullshit.

Yesterday i found out that Lifecoach (That german pro that played in the same team as Thijs) quit playing competetive hearthstone in March. He explained how RNG is destroying hearthstone more and more. the cards almost play themselves . Bad players have great winrates and good players have almost the same winrates.

Crads like Keleseth might be able to get Hearhstone find back some of its identity. Pls don't make wrong statements on it saying it's not a nice card. If you'd see it like it is you'd understand that that statement is saying you want Hearthstone to have a mediocre future expectation. Prince Keleseth is one of the few highlights HS has to offer nowadays. At least respect it. I have an extra love for numbers so I think it feels better to me than to most but a great card it is to all of us.

Nzoth is the heart(h) of mr. Hearthstone, Keleseth is the new brain!

And you know what: Prince Taldaram is absolutley great as well. We will hear so much more from these guys in the future. :D

How in any way is N'Zoth the most well balanced card in the game??

I'm playing evolve shaman rn and I'd craft thrall.really rewarding dk and really successful most of the time.not to mention it isn't too expensive to craft and is viable without aya and patches

Mill decks.  Pointless.  I don't mind losing to a good deck but killing your opponent via overdraws?  Fucking lame in my view.

Nzoth and murloc paladin.No matter how quick I play,I always get screwed over my nzoth by turn 10 .I have plenty of aoe, but it never wants to show up when playing against murloc decks 

Y'all struggling with the lich king?must be nice.I can't even get past freaking professor putricide,even when I tech in flare and eater of secrets.Both decide they never wanna show up while fighting him
