This looks interesting, I do like playing non-control warrior, no one sees it coming past rank 15. Still have trouble with Mech Mage, it'd be cool if you'd explain that matchup. I pretty much need winaxe or their mechwarper screws me.
I don't like playing Druid too much, but man they just turn the game on its head. Savage Roar closes out games like no one's business, innervate and wild growth let you drop heavy minions early all day. Ancient of Lore is probably one of the best cards in the game.
Second is probably tied with Mage and Paladin. Mage because you never know what they're running and Pally because it's very solid and consistent.
Well, I'm excited for dragon paladin. I don't think the meta will shift much, but I didn't know if anyone had some insights I might have been missing out on.
People have been saying "when the meta slows down [x] will be a good card/strategy/deck" FOREVER. It seems like every time an expansion comes out there's all this talk about less aggro, but then deathrattle hunter / mech mage / new face hunter comes along and that's 8/10 games below rank 15.
I think it's mostly because a lot of the best legendaries come out late game and players without a stable of top-tier legendaries get out-valued if they play control in ladder.
What gives me hope this expansion is that there are a number of (hopefully) decent late-game legendaries, and everyone who gets BRM will have them. Maybe budget control decks will become viable?
Annnd now it's 15%. Tried it out myself for a few games, nice card. Never got to draw off it but I didn't want to play too much face hunter, even just for experiment.

It won't be put back in the deck, since its text is what causes this effect. I tried it out with a Malorne I Mindgame-d away from a Druid.

DIED TO THIS CARD FOR THE FIRST TIME TODAY
TIME TO GET MEGA SALTY

I'm pretty sure Lorewalker Cho and Millhouse will become Tier 1 because of the 30 cards that were added.

If you use this with Malygos...
IT'S THE IMPOCALYSPE

Anyone else been seeing this guy again recently? I mean, he's basically a 6/6 for 5 so I'm surprised he doesn't see more use.

I mean if you look at the power ranking for this week it's Oil Rogue, Fast Druid, Midrange Paladin, Demon Handlock, Face Hunter, Mech Mage.
How many of those consistently play to turn 10?
I don't necessarily have a problem with aggro, I just wondered if anyone thought BRM would slow the meta down or not.

What do you guys think?

Undertaker just because it was a 1-drop. Anything that comes out the first turn of the game and can trade 3 or 4 for one is just stupid.
Dr. Boom because he gives you a good board in 1 card, there's no reason not to run him in every deck.

Sorry Mech Mage :(

Golden Nozdormu? I thought it was pronounced "Dr. Boom"

The same world where ramp Druid uses Nourish? Chill people, not everything in the world has to be for Spike.
