I get where you are coming from, but things like drawing lackey after Voidlord is simply normal card game draw rng affecting tutor-like minions. You would get that in any card game. It is just a standard drawback of using tutors to draw (no pun intended) a more powerful thing out.

Same thing goes things like Anduin & Antonidas. Getting them late and losing is something typical of any combo or OTK/TTK deck. I don't really view it as something that HS suddenly stumbled upon the last expansion or two.

I would absolutely love to see a non evergreen mode.  I know this is not for new players at all since it doesn’t include the basic cards you get for free but it would be a separate player pool like standard and wild and brawl etc.  

Also if they plan to keep the evergreen set in play forever they need to give an option to buy a bulk of it. Not every legendary in the set or anything but a solid chunk of the most utilized commons, rares, epics, and a few neutral legendaries. Things like Savannah Highmane for Hunter and brawl for warrior.  Make them non disenchantable so people aren’t just using it to buy essentially.  I think this would massively help the new player experience or even the player who’s been playing for a couple expansion.  

I think certain aspects of the game are good right, but what I think really hurts it, is the absolute power of RNG right now. I don't mean just random effects, but look at it this way, the difference between drawing Prince K for turn 2 or not drawing him is big, you essentially warp the game based on the RNG of draws with that one card. Add to that the RNG of drawing Patches versus Captain first, and it stacks even higher. 

This isn't limited to aggro, as Warlock changes a lot based on if it draws Lackey before it draws Voidlord for example. While decks with Spiteful Summoner are also doing well now, but they have this huge spread of which order you draw things in... Not to mention the 7 mana 5/5, drawing that at the right time is huge too as it's just a 7 mana 5/5 unless you've held it for some time. Anduin Combo too, was Raza/Anduin in your last 10 cards or did you get it early? How about Quest Mage builds, did you get unlucky with where Antonidas ended up in your deck?

It's just not a good place to be, when based on when you draw a couple of cards, in some cases one card, it completely warps how the game is played in terms of power level. Think about it, in Prince K mirrors, based on a single draw in the first two turns of the game, you can end up playing a strictly worse deck somehow, despite playing all the same cards.

All this things are really good. But there is one big problem there is the need to find the weapon. Otherwise [card]Doomerang[/card] and all the poisons are death cards. So, for me like now it is a bad card. I hope to see a card that will allow to draw a weapon in the remaining cards. 

 Explain to me how deadly poison could EVER be a dead card in rogue? And 2 shadowblades + Kingsbane are more than enough to have very consistent Doomerangs, you would know it if you had any experience with rogue, I only have 200 rogue ranked wins and I play rogue better than you lol, are you a new player?

I knew they'd give Rogue the best legendary weapon. To be honest, I don't play Rogue, but this makes me happy for some reason.

If Rogue gets its own version of Forge of Souls in the next 2 years so help us Murky!

Garbage tier, it's a worse Light's Justice late game. 

Light's Justice is still a 1/4 late game, while this card could be a 5/3 with Lifesteal & Poisonous (or more)

Maybe they printed this to make us hate 9 Mana CotW less.

Think about it.  You see this and say "Man, for 3 more mana I could always summon all three and it has no restrictions!"

Maybe Blizzard just wants us to forget that CotW sucks too.

Kind of reminds me of Cho'gall, which was also meant to be amazing until it turned out there are almost no high-value Warlock spells that would work with it. 5 mana for a 4/4 is nearly 2 mana too much, so this card is unplayable without the combo effect.

Overall, I feel like it might be good in some decks, but not necessarily the decks I'd want to see more of (FU jades and Big EZ's).

Warrior wouldn't trade with it though 9/10 so... does it make it OP?

Seems like a card that could potentially be auto-include in aggro/pirate warrior (possibly after next standard rotation)?

 

 Well, "people" maybe said Hungry dragon was OP, but I didn't, and all I care about is my own opinion. So, I think mana geode is a great card, and that alone proves it is a great card. I made some mistakes in GvG, called Mekkatorque a good card, and said Cobalt guardian would see some play. After they released BRM, I haven't been wrong a single time. So, you can call me a troll or anything, the truth is, when I say a card is good, a card is good and that's it.

"There is a reason why inspire wasn't so popular."

Yes, the reason is inspire cards have below vanilla statline. 2 mana 2/3 is vanilla. Thus it will see play.
