Day[9] is probably the least fake a streamer can be. He's just himself.

You really think his over-the-top excitement he displays about completely mediocre cards is genuine?

Honestly, so long as it's not Day9 I'm happy. Can't stand the guy with his fake persona and he's terrible at the game too, there's so many better options.

You are correct, my bad.

... and is also a 7 mana 5/5. The reason Kazakus saw play and Solia didn't is because Kazakus was cheap enough  that it could give you tools against agro if the matchup required it, this is way too slow for that, you have to play a 7 mana 5/5 on turn 7 and even then you're less likely to get an answer than with Kazakus.

Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad card, but it's nowhere near the powerlevel of Kazakus.

This deck is very suboptimal. It runs cards like Acolyte of Pain which is basically a 1/1 that draws 1 as a deathrattle in this mode, but not cards like Arena Treasure Chest that's a 1/1 with Deathrattle: Draw 2 cards. It runs cards like Shriek that can discard your combo pieces but not Primordial Drake, which costs 1 less for the same effect without the discard downside. Granted, it makes your Hemet a bit slower, but you can't rely on your win condition being drawing Hemet when that will statistically happen only 40% of the time within the first five turns, and even with the few additional cards you need to draw, you're still gonna win convincingly if you do draw it early.

The base idea for the deck is sound, but it could definitely do with some improvements. 

Yep... the Bliz$$ard greed continues... i mean, why don't they just add the 10 gold rewards for each 3 victories back again? they could keep the actual system working and just add the 10g back. Also, something to trade like, 100 achievements points for a little gold or dust would be really welcome.

I mean... Anyone who was willing to buy packs with real money will continue buying, this 10g for 3 victories or achievements rewards will not make people rich and neither will Blizz get poor or something. People will still buy packs, because the game will still be really expensive and hard to get the cards you need.

The plot twist is, by acting like this, they will lose more players (over time, they will lose more money than they are earning now)... you know,They will lose people that do not agree with this greedy attitude anymore. Maybe, some day, they will learn it.

A game that is not able to attract new players and keep players interested, beacause it's hard to keep up with cards they need, will eventually die (i hope not... because i love HS), but... the way it's going, is just sad.

This is like putting lipstick on a pig. It’s a small improvement, but it’s still a pig. 

This changes nothing

As a Control player I have to say that yet again, aggro will absolutely dominate the meta in less than 1 week. DH will be able to kill you in just 4-5 turns now with all these new weapons and attack cards. It's absolutely disgusting to take more than 15 damage in the face on Turn 5. You just can't avoid it. There is not enough healing, or removal or taunts to stop that. It kills all the fun of the game. I guess these are another 3 months of Battlegrounds and now Duels.

Iam sick of DH’s cards.

Deck of Fortunes. Legendary spell. Calling it.

Deathrattle Hunter in Wild might finally have enough juice.

favorite card so far

ah yes, because Hunter cards that cost higher than 6 have historically been bangers!

tbh i feel like each class should have a Blizz employee that represents it and ensures thematic card design, the way MTG has "Color Ambassadors" so that each color still keeps its identity in check.  Maybe then we could have somebody who cares about Hunter designing Hunter cards.
