I think we all were wrong about the card. You can say that "you watched stream, they are playing bad decks against bad decks, it won't be like how it is in stream, in real meta. Well you might be right but I want to point something different now.
Think about companions. They all are quite well minions. They must orginally cost 4 for each. Their neutral replacements are weaker. so basically you could count them 4 cost minions. In addition to this they all have beast tag. It costs .5 more mana. Also they are more powerful when they are together. we can simply say that those companions' mana costs are 4.5 .
Also think about Kor'kron Elite, 4 mana 4/3 with no tag. Huffer's equilevent minion with no tag is 4-cost with +1 health. Felguard can count equal with Misha and has a drawback. Warsong Commander can only give +1 attack to Charge minions and have 1 less health than Leokk and has no tags.
So merging two of them together should have been higher cost than 6 and they did this "no minion in deck" drawback. Like Druid's choose one effects. Choose one cards always weaker than normal costs because of choose one effect's adapting ability. Only few has normal power levels. This cards drawback is mostly like choose one mechanic.
So I think we were just unfair to To My Side! because we forgot about how powerful Animal Companion is which orginally should have been cost 4. At least I feel like I was so unfair about this card so far.
You could think that I am eating my words. Well, I guess we have to embrace our mistakes.
Before Zul'jin was this really a thought in your mind? Animal Companion is fine and does not need a nerf at all. It's random, and most of the time you never get the roll you want.
I've Been running this home brew list and have been having a blast with it, playing at rank 7 and winning quite a few games and with the Hyena they are great. It sucks when the zooka pull him but thats few and far between. Great Flavor card IMO.
I somehow busted 8 Legendarys in 59 Packs. Not to mention the Free Legendary so 9 Total in ALL! I think I maybe cursed for the next year or two with that opening. I am a little beside myself as I have NEVER had this luck before. I know some people are getting screwed from what I have seen.
Im not trying to rub it in here but this feels pretty good to actually not have been screwed this time as with boomsday i got 2 Legendarys in 60 packs....... I hope other people have the same luck I did!
Guys I swear to fuck this pack opening was fooking rigged. I mean this is complete and utter bollocks!!!!!!!!! I got 8 legendaries + the free loa from 50 packs....50 FUCKING PACKS! I got as following:
Not to mention the trigger from Highmanes deathrattle so a potentiall 5 minion swing? Reguardless if its viable or not new expansions are always fun to theory craft and just play some cards!
This list would probably be mine as well. Simply due to the fact that the cards you picked are from the only classes I really like to play aside from the neutral cards. Good list m8. Cheers!
The fastest I've done is was under 50 games. The slowest, over 300 (for the memes). It's taken me on average less effort each run so skill and experience is definitely a thing. People who are trying to reach legend for the first time typically take about 200 even with a trihard deck
If you are netdecking, make sure you know how to pilot your decks properly. Don't expect to pick up a new deck and have the fact that it's tier 1 carry you. Evenlock and Deathrattle hunter are both good choices, especially after the nerfs (Evenlock loses 2 bad matchups; hunter preys on druids, which should become more popular because they are also losing bad matchups). If you can learn both, I suggest you swaperino between them depending on how many druids you find in your immediate meta
If grinding 200 games with tier 1 decks is too much for you, know that reaching legend with homebrews and off meta things is perfectly feasible as well, though it may take more games. While your winrate may be lower, it may be a worthwhile sacrifice if it enables you to play more games in the first place. This also comes with bonus bragging rights. Whether or not one should do such a thing depends entirely on the personalities and skill levels of individual players
This is great thank you. I have been only playing since the witchwood expansion and not until boomsday did i really have enough to build some decks through dust. I'm just going to start the grind and see how it pans out.
But if anyone wants to keep saying how long it has taken them I am still curious! Thanks.
I am finally at rank 5 for the first time in my HS playing career. I have been just trying meme decks since I hit 5, and am now ready to try and grind out legend the rest of this month. Thinking I will try to make my run with Deathrattle Hunter or Evenlock
But I am curious to hear from people who have hit legend already or do so every month from 5. On average how many games does it usually take or how many hours do you think you grinded to hit it? I know its different for all and not all roads are the same, but would just like to hear from the community!
Thanks in advance and good luck to all on the ladder! See ya out there!
Leads me to think that he will still see a lot of play due to Spreading Plague but i still dont want to keep just 1 card for 1 class. I am sitting at rank 9 and feel from rank 6. Looking to climb but want a valid option to keep climbing once the nerf officially hits. Potentially another Skulking Geist or add a Siphon Soul
I mean I probably dont want to do that at all cause you really only need 1, but finding one quicker vs warrior and druid, and at times hunter ups your win % very quickly I have found because you're not getting shield slammed etc etc.

I had to fix spelling and forgot my 8th legendary so here is the updated list.

I might have gotten the luckiest 50 packs ever not countin the free legendary I got. Super shocked by this because my luck is usually the WORST
6 Legendarys
1 Golden Legendary
8 Epic
2 Golden Epics
So in all 8 Total Legendarys off 50 packs is insane and I got two of the ones I really wanted!!!

Flark's Boom-Zooka + Revenge of the Wild - An expensive play, and potentially way to inconsistent, but just looking at the possibilities and the fun this will be to play if you still somehow have a King Krush or a Savannah Highmane maybe even a Charged Devilsaur so when they die from zooka you can get them back same turn!
Not to mention the trigger from Highmanes deathrattle so a potentiall 5 minion swing? Reguardless if its viable or not new expansions are always fun to theory craft and just play some cards!
