its just a weaker kel'thuzad. this can only revive 1 minion a turn that died during the game, while kel'thuzad literally everything sooo. guess this is better if you have a smaller board.
Doesn't KT require that he's on the board the turn they died, though? Whereas this card can resurrect them at any point in time. So playing her to an empty board when you had no minions die will still get you a minion, whereas KT won't.
I mean, if you have 4+ bombs in the opponents deck (which seems reasonable to do by turn 7/8 based on some of the cards), play him on turn 8 (turn 7 with the coin) and then a whirlwind and you just did 24+ damage.
So I look forward to see all of the people saying this is a weak card complaining about how OP he is in a month or two =D
My first time playing this tavern and keep losing with both of them... Any advice?
Rafaam, the key is to mulligan for low-cost board control spells and/or the spell to upgrade your staff (you want it upgraded asap). Key is to just maintain board control until you upgrade your staff/KT runs out of steam and you start to outpace him.
KT, pray Rafaam has horrible draw/RNG and/or concede and replay till you get Rafaam >.>
Still not balanced. KT has an average card cost of 4-5 so you spend turns waiting for things to do, while Rafaam is loaded with low cost removal so by the time you actually land a creature he can probably remove it. If you're winning as KT then it's almost assuredly because the Rafaam player has just has some horrible draw/RNG/luck.
I just had a game where every single one of my creatures was destroyed up until the 5th or 6th turn, by then he had such large board advantage I couldn't keep up, especially since he completed his staff.
They need to have KT start at 3-4 crystals or give him more board control/wipes.
Game 2: KT again, Rafaam started with some bad draws so I thought I had a chance. Then he landed Lady Naz'jataar which reset my board, and then landed Antonidas. But since I had no hard removal and he now kept getting fireballs I of course couldn't keep anything on the board, so game over.
Game 3: Got Rafaam, it didn't go well for the KT player at all (see image). They really need to balance this thing. Got my pack I'm done
Decided to finally push past rank 20 for the first time since I had a good deck (taunt warrior) that had been on a win streak. Make it to 19, then hit a 3 game losing streak and am back down to 20.
The worst was the last game against a priest. They get Medivh out, and proceeds to summon The Boogeymonster, Mayor Noggenfogger, and N'zoth from his 3 casts. Also, apparently Noggenfogger isn't really random because, after he mind controlled my Curator, all of his attacks hit me in the face. So unlike some of those "targets chosen at random" cards, he doesn't seem to make them choose their own creatures/themselves.
Just played an arena match where this guy had a counter to every single fucking card I played.
I play a taunt? They had polymorph.
I play a secret? They have eater of secrets.
I play a Cat Trick? Well suddenly this mage doesn't have any spells to cast until I'm dead.
He has a full board? Well guess who hasn't drawn their board clear.
Also, how is it everyone else seems to get a bunch of taunt cards and legendaries but I'm lucky if I end up with a couple of epics and 2 taunt minions?

That or I just had some really awful RNG.
