Well they clearly made cards like To My Side! and Rhok'delar with a no-minion build in mind. So yeah, I guess that's fair to say.
I'm often critical of Blizzard and the way they push particular archetypes, but I think they've done a good job with Hunter this past year. The class finally has some dimension to it rather than just being a smorc deck.
So much dimension.. play egg and spawn multiple 5/5's from it. Win the game.
There is way more dimension to it than that and you know it. It’s not the hardest deck to play but he didn’t say it was. compared to smorc hunter though it’s way deeper.
If this were 5 Mana it would see play for sure. At 6 though, not a chance. Not unless warrior gets some new cards to give them crazy armor like Druid anyways.
The Mana Wyrm nerf I get it. Especially since FWA got hit back in the day. Blizz doesn’t like classic cards like them used in every single deck. I suspect it might still see use though.
Aviana nerf - Very surprising. I assumed they’d just nerf Juicy Psych. What a dumb card that was.
Giggles - Well this saddens me immensely. I think raising the cost to 6 mana would have been fine. But at 7 mana it’s just destroyed. Imo they should at least buff the Inventor itself from 2/1 to 3/3 or something.
I hate the giggles nerf because I play mech decks a ton. I don’t care if they’re not top tier. I love them. And giggles along with War and Zilliax were the only solid mech cards.
Floop spell: A lot of streamers predicted it would not be good because druids lack decent AOE removals.
Kangor: There isn't enough big Mech minions yet for this card to shine for now; give it some time, it will become better in future sets.
Lab Recruiter: Its fate is directly related to how viable Pogo-Hopper is. Nothing less, nothing more.
I actually doubt kangors will get better. Blizzard specifically try to avoid adding things to improve a previous sets theme. So I doubt we see many mechs added next set if any at all.
TIL - The artwork for Kill Command isn't some abstract mountain range but an abstract image of a guy telling his raptor to "sic 'em".
What’s funny is the guy who designed it is Gabe from Penny Arcade who also did Leeroy Jenkins art which happens to be a favorite of mine. Such different styles for those two cards.
If we’re talking art strictly then it’s Blackwater Pirate easily. That card is hideous and the art doesn’t feel like it fits World of Warcraft/Hearthstone whatsoever.
I suspect many people here think this card is bad because there will be tons of mech decks played. But imo warrior is the only class that will end up playing a full on mech deck by the time the meta stabilizes which would make this card very solid.
Well that’s the biggest letdown. Based on the art I was super pumped as I have amazing memories of Cthun and AQ40 from WoW. So I hoped this cthun would be awesome like the first one was. This is a cool meme card but not something viable.
what an original card, those lazy fuckers rly have lack of imagination.
Dude when they do come up new ideas people either shit on them for being RNG or being useless. Remember Freeze shaman? Silence priest? Tell me how much you’ve been playing your Moorabi focused deck since you love originality.
Nobody in their right mind crafts golden cards. BUT theres only one card that might actually be worth the craft. But only for meme sake and thats whizbang
Gives u a full golden deck
Nobody with a clear mind would judge someone, by the way how they like to spend their money.
Nah not true at all. If I see someone spend their money on crack when they have starving kids then I’m judging the shit out of them. I know this isn’t anything like that, but still I hate that argument.
Anyways as for the topic at hand it would be Dr Boom for me. Mr Wonderful as a close second.
What was really stunning for me, was the chat. I have never seen a more unintelligent behavior as the people in it. With every revealed card people were spamming dust, 40 dust, 5 dust, op, nerf. Just why?
Because literally most people that use twitch chat are just the dumbest of the dumb. It’s always filled with morons. They run off anyone with half a brain. And I’m not even saying this to try to sound cocky or superior. It’s just the sad truth. Twitch chat is bottom of the barrel. You will find smarter people on 4chan than you will twitch chat. It’s just the absolute worst man. Thankfully Blizzard just ignores those types of people.

Dude chill. Begging here doesn’t help.

Yeah that’s not happening. Blizzard still wants to keep class fantasy’s going and rogues aren’t exactly the healing class.

Most players play standard strictly. By far. So really not many give a shit about wild. You know this guy was obviously referring to standard.

The question is if it requires the minions to have exactly 7 health or if it’s 7 plus? And does he himself count as one of the 3 minions?
