Hearthpwn

Decent Stats. Probably good enough as a finisher for zoo after they’ve dumped a bunch of minions on the board. Might see some experimentation early on, probably won’t define warlock zoo considering its competition.

2.5/5 stars

The question is - Is it worth 5 health to get 1 HP on a minion? (Nightmare amalg)

Pit Lord gives +1/+1 to chillwind yeti for 4 mana. The pit lord sees no play and it has a demon tag. So my guess is this will see no play. Decent arena card on turn 3 tho.

lAnyone playing ranked hearthstone nowadays knows there is an insane amount of combo decks on the standard ladder not limited to:

Mecha’thun Priest

Mecha’thun Warlock

Mecha’thun Druid

Togwaggle Druid

Malygos Druid

Shudderwock Shaman

Mindblast Priest

And a few other off meta ones.

Does anyone else see any sort of issue with this? Why are there so many viable combo decks in one season of hearthstone? I love playing control decks: control mage, warlock shaman, priest, warrior, and even control paladin. Problem is, there’s only one card in the standard format that combats combo decks, demonic project, and you have to get lucky even with that card to kill the combo.

I have the answer. A neutral combo breaker! Similar to dirty rat in the past, some sort of neutral card to break the combo decks. That way control decks that aren’t warlock, have a prayer of winning a ladder game vs a combo deck. 

Is this the bitching of a control player? Sure. Should I just play a combo deck, or a mindless aggro deck? Yeah probably. But hey, the game has so many cool control cards in it, and it just feels like a shame that nobody can explore any of these control decks due to there not being a counter to combo decks that everyone can use. Blizzard gave us geist for 1 mana spells, and even dirty rat as a combo breaker. 

Do you agree that hearthstone should have a combo breaker available to ALL classes? If so, what do you think the card should look like?

This deck is extremely powerful with the only counter being a strong tempo rogue opener or malygos Druid, and even that can be countered with benedictus stealing malfurion to tank up. The only thing I did differently with it was:

-1 Loot hoarder

+1 chameleos

I hit legend with it in like 30 games from rank 5 0 stars. And I’ve already won 4 in a row since I hit legend. This deck is insane with seemingly no counter. Thanks for the post
