"Futile" seems a bit of a stretch. Discussing cards, how they might impact the meta, what sort of decks novel cards might spawn - these notions seem quite helpful. Presumably, everyone involved in the discussion realizes that initial impressions may be wrong - but that is hardly an insight. The discussion has value, regardless of how our consideration of cards changes over time - that's what a discussion is, after all. Feel free to take part, or not.

I really hope at least one person in this thread has realised that Dr Boom is in the GvG set, which is rotating out of standard, which also happens to be the new competitive format.

Blizzard doesnt give a shit about wild, and rightfully so; they only care about competitive hearthstone of which standard is the new format

What's the criteria on necroin' in this forum? I would say this is necro, and if is not, this subject is irrelevant now, 1. People that cry over OP cards are in standard crying over there, and 2. people that enjoy wild already know how to play around Dr.7 so...

Admin? Admin? lock this pls?

 Would you rather see another thread about it ? Seriously this whole "don't necro thread or you will be punished" thing is ridiculous. If people didn't necro thread, it would be worse. Let them talk about dr boom on dr boom thread, instead of making another dr boom thread. And Dr boom is OP in Wild now that BGH isn't a good option anymore, if you have a good curve + turn 7 dr boom you simply win the game, this is how Wild works, no matter how much you know how to play around it. Just saying this thread is still 100% relevant, i don't want to discuss about dr boom.

Should be the other way around. Standard is stale, and I presume this same thing will happen every season in that the meta gets figured out quickly and it becomes boring. Wild is more fun, and likely will always be more fun. Plus, N'Zoth is better in Wild anyway, so I wouldn't dust up your wild options for a guy that will be a Wild-only card eventually.

What I have done in extreme situations where I want a certain legendary in a bad way, is to disenchant basically every card from a certain class that I never play. In my case it was Hunter and Warrior (Priest I never play either, but seems like Priests can be used to defeat 90% of Heroic Adventure bosses). It kinda sucks doing that, but if you have a class that you know you will not be playing, I say dust it up if you really want a certain legendary especially if it's a powerhouse like N'Zoth. I did this (regrettably) for Y'Shaarj, but I haven't missed any of the cards I dusted, and I have most of them back now anyway from opening packs.

I have a feeling they have a bigger plan in mind for Ethereal Peddler.

Surely they aren't going to release that card strictly for Burgle and Undercity Huckster.

I'm betting at least one of the other two remaining Rogue cards will have a Burgle/Huckster effect, thus making Peddler potentially playable.

Maybe something Huckster-esque with Battlecry (hopefully it's a decent minion and not a terrible spell).

2 out of 3 of Warlock's cards were for discard mechanics, so I'm guessing they will release something for Rogue to abuse the Burgle like effects outside of just Peddler.

Just play Wild.

Wow, can everyone stop crying about Priest being bad now please?

I can imagine this guy into Mind Control, or more likely Entomb at least. Entomb just got even more disgusting, wonderful.

This guy seems pretty nasty in Yogg decks as well.

Warrior might even try to run Upgrade! again just for this.

My Druid just creamed his jeans too.

Good thing I have those golden Acidic Swamp Ooze! Might even have to double up on them now.

Deathwing, Troggzor the Earthinator, The Black Knight, Baron Geddon

It was way back on blackrock days for most of these I think? They were completely useless, save for baron geddon but he was seen mostly in warrior which I didn't even touch back then. Not saying trogg is useful now but I could try some gimmicky decks. As I kept playing i realized any card can become viable one day in both standard and wild. I learned my lesson and now I don't dust ANY cards. 

 At least Troggzor is a fun play before opponent's Yogg. XD

 Really? That works? Damn. Now I want it even more

 It actually doesn't work, same as with Lorewalker Cho or Flamewaker. Sorry :"(

 I'VE BEEN LIED TO AND CHEATED. DAMN YOU CROVAX. I CURSE YOUUU... Oh wait. 

Dreadsteed

Oh wait, you said viable...

I'm hoping Discard gets some more love in addition to Malchezaar's Imp but I doubt it.

Basically Mind Vision becomes "Discover a card in your opponent's deck" which is a cool idea imo.

I definitely agree with the Ancient of Lore cost reduction. As he is since the nerf, he is just unplayable now. At least with a cost reduction you could combo him with Fandral in one turn without Thaurissan/Innervate/Coin.

Savagery has always been a terrible card, and it makes me sad because it has a lot of potential. It's only useful with Bite and/or Feral Rage (possibly with Justicar Trueheart and Savage Roar as well, but that still kind of stinks). However, I might change the ability instead; leave it at 1 mana, but the ability also has "Gain +1 attack" along with it's current ability. That would at least make it usable as a low-cost minion removal without having to use a Wrath (looking at you Juggler/Elekk). Sucks having to use Wrath to deal 3 damage when you only need to do 2, thus not being able to utilize the draw mode. Edit: That would also make it easier to remove Flamewaker without using a Swipe.

This is bacially the Pauper format from MTG, and it`s awesome. This is the most budget friendly consdtructed tavern Brawl, and it encourages to play card you would bever use.

This should be another format for play mode in Hearthstone, because I think it would be benefitial for HS as it was for Magic, and a Pauper format would bring a lot of benefits, for the first one: New players will have a place where thay can play with their limited card pool without beeing anihalated for the other players who has full  competitive decks or expensive homebrews. And teh second, building decks with limited card pools improove your deckbuilding skill overall.

Amazing Brawls like You Must Be This Tall to Brawl have only ever been one offs, but we get this crap how many times? Hell, we had a crossroads variant just a few weeks ago. It's not fun! Give us something new or at least repeat something enjoyable.

How is that possible: If you were Rank 13, you can't go below Rank 15; sorry but that's bad trolling!

you mean because whoever named the deck confuses mill with fatigue?

Will there ever be something that Blizzard/Team 5 does that you DON'T find something to complain about it?

I've actually called it on Hearthstone shortly after this latest dropped. I pop in to hearthpwn to see whats up a couple times a week (after a couple years you get dedicated to a game after all) - but it's a bit like opening the national news in general these days, I do it expecting there's some new toxic mess looming. I haven't had consistent fun in this game for a couple expansions now but this last one tanked my interest. More and more I've felt games are often decided by either random dice events or whale decks with dust costs so high they'd make moby dick blush. Playing competitive slots just isn't my game. Hoping on access in to the MtG:Arena beta and checking out all the other digital CG's I've neglected to ever look at in the meantime.

To addendum: I'm sure my leaving is/was of little concern to Blizzard; I'm a long time player but I've never dropped a dime on the game. Sure I've never got legendary but I play hard enough to end every season in the 10-5 bracket with occasional blips in the 5-1 - and hey, I do it running shaman murloc in wild. Just my thought on the state of the game. If it never trundles back around to the game I originally enjoyed then I hope it keeps a happy playerbase for a long life none the less.

Yo mama so poor she gets basic cards from packs

This would require Blizzard to actually care about their costumers, and we all know that won't happend

This is absolutely ridiculous. I am beyond pissed at this point...

I have no words... they are fucking idiots who don't even understand how their own game works. Biggest fuck up nerf patch ever.
