This + Felosophy or two is a legit win condition against control/combo. I like it.

,,Wait...that thing is a legendary?? ,, was my first reaction. Scrolled up and confirmed my disappointment. Certainly a contender for the most boring legendary.

Had a few of these experiences myself. Some people are just toxic pricks like that.

Most friend requests were these toxic people so I just stopped accepting the friend requests. A lot of the time it's pretty obvious why they sent it, like in your case ( Why else would they send it after a 4 turn game where their gameplan completely fell apart. Someone who plays face hunter probably doesn't want your control off meta deck list ) .

Sometimes when it's obvious like that I give them a taste of their own medicine. Accept the friend request , copy paste something along the lines of ,,get rekt,, , then instantly unfriend. It's pretty funny imagining them seething with rage over a loss in a video game , wanting to spew some toxic waste into the opponents chat , only to get shut down like that.

I think it becomes a 7/7 because if it only copies one of them how does it choose which one? At random would be weird.

I can see it not be an auto include in every DH deck since it is kind of situational but there is no way it sees no play. It's too strong of a tech card against control/combo decks. That's like saying Skulking Geist won't see play in a meta where Jade Druid exists just because it's useless against decks that don't rely on 1 mana spells.

It's gonna feel awful to play against as a control/combo deck so I hope you are right..but seems very unlikely.

Yes please!

I always liked the card even if it was the worst of the highlander cards. I crafted it long ago just so I could play a weird midrange-ish version of Renolock. There is just something so satisfying about summoning a giant board of demons with that awesome animation ( Same reason I like Bloodreaver Gul'dan haha )

To make it not a demon is kind of weird though. It obviously is some kind of Voidlord which is definitely a demon in both HS and wow lore. Maybe just costing 8 and having taunt is buff enough for it to be good. Even if you get it from Skull of the Man'ari/Voidcaller you wouldn't be too sad cheating out a 7/9 taunt demon.

Renolock hasn't been good for a long time now in wild so this certainly wouldn't make it op.

I do know that warrior is great against DH but I just don't wanna craft Ancharrr because I hate pirates with a passion ever since the old Patches the Pirate days.

I am just surprised that Blizz backtracked on this rule since it seems great to me. Not just now for DH / Druid / Priest or whatever..but whenever there is a class that's played way more than others it would be a big relief to have to face it max 50% of the time. Even when a class is not that common but I just don't like playing against it ( Big Priest before the Barnes nerf...grrr ) I would love to never play against it twice in a row.

Alright found it. Here's the hearthpwn article about the patch in question https://www.hearthpwn.com/news/6742-patch-live-18-card-buffs-1-card-nerf-sn1p-snap-new

And the important bit is:

Matchmaking Improvements

• We've implemented a new feature to reduce chances of matching against the same player and same class multiple times in a row. Some exceptions may occur when players have few matchmaking options near their rank.
• Match quality should be improved for players in ranks 25 – 21.

It does say there would be ,,some exceptions,, but my que times weren't long at all and FIVE in a row? That's a pretty big exception xD

Hello everyone.

This month I decided to climb to legend in Standard so I was playing Spell Druid around diamond 2/1 area and there was soo much DH ( my worst matchup ) . My last 5 games to legend were against DH and even though I was winning most of them either due to luck or me knowing the matchup...I was raging and thinking to myself ,,Didnt Blizz fix this bs??,,

What I mean is...I remember reading a long time ago that Blizz made a change to the matchmaking so you 1) Couldn't play against the same person twice in a row ( mainly to prevent instant counter deck reque in high legend ) and 2) Couldn't play against the same class twice in row (mainly so you wouldn't feel frustrated playing against the same class over and over again due to RNG )

At the time I thought both of these were great changes so I don't understand why Blizz would backtrack on them. Did they say anything about it and I missed it? I really think they should have kept at least 2) because its really annoying playing against the same class 5 times in a row when its a bad matchup. Especially if the class in question is op like DH was at the beginning of this expack.

Zeph doesn't read card effects. He doesn't know the effect of Whirlwind Tempest . He only knows keywords like taunt , divine shield , windfury etc. Blizzard made it like that probably because it would take way too much work for it to recognize every single card effect in the game. They would also need to update him every single expansion to take into account all the weird effects new cards may have.

I wanna play DH but the face aggro stuff is super boring to me...so I was pleasantly surprised when I found this midrange-ish variant. Went from diamond 10 to diamond 5 in one 5-0 streak ( with the 2x star bonus ). Thanks for the deck :)
