I am playing wild, and since reaching rank 2 I haven’t met a single big priest... 

Even when I met them I can say that turn 4 into Barnes is not that unwinnable as you all guys say it is. I won turn 4 Barnes on odd war, I’m always winning turn 4 Barnes on dragon priest thanks to potion of madness

P.S. the only class that struggles against big priest is warlock, everyone else do have ways of dealing with this deck, yeah turn 4 Barnes makes me feel salty, but than Aggro mages plays whole hand on turn 3 into turn 4 fireball lethal, or Kingsbane rogue buffs it’s weapon to 11 on turn 3, or pirate warrior who can make you consede on turn 2 already, all of this also makes me salty. Most of this strategies also exists for 2 years. Mine point is that you guys just need to stop being salty about a deck in a game mode which is MADE OF decks that makes everyone salty, and big priest is at least compared to some others is winnable with his “gold fish” and IS interesting to play

 This guy gets it. Warlock is my favorite deck in wild, so I really have a hate-on for Big Priest. Non-even warlock decks have so few answers to turn 4 Barnes. However, in my more lucid moments, I do feel that Big Priest can be managed by most other classes with a few tech cards that won't disrupt the optimal makeup of your deck. 

FYI, I'm loving pulling off potion of madness and embrace darkness in priest vs. priest matches. I'm getting eaten alive by other classes however :p

My wild experience this morning:

Queue Big Priest, Turn 4 Barnes, Turn 6 Shadow Essence
Queue Big Priest, Turn 4 Barnes, Turn 6 Shadow Essence
Queue Big Priest, Turn 4 Barnes, Turn 6 Shadow Essence
Queue Big Priest, Turn 4 Barnes, Turn 6 Shadow Essence
Queue Big Priest, Turn 4 Barnes, Turn 6 Shadow Essence
Queue Big Priest, Turn 4 Barnes, Turn 6 Shadow Essence
Queue Big Priest, Turn 4 Barnes, Turn 6 Shadow Essence

Switch to a deck that hard-counters Big Priest

Are the lackeys collectible or generated only?  They actually seem quite good. 

They have no gem and as collectible they would be absurdly powerful... 1/1 + random 2 drop on turn one is beyond insanity and would be easily be the strongest 1 drop ever.

I bet I'd get Doomsayerevery time

when Mecha'thun warlock BMs well-played after drawing his deck and you had the patience to hold Loatheb and Zola the Gorgon

Mmmmm

On a related note: What card(s) do you HATE getting from "add a random [x] to your hand" 

Mine is Glacial Mysteries.

The only thing we can be sure of? Big Priest will get even more tools to rule Wild!!

HA!! jk... just some minor salt. Carry on. 

 we don't even know the expansion and big priest is already getting tools....... suuuuuuuure

 I was being facetious ... obviously we don't know whats in store for us. 

didnt mean for it to come off as insulting. Mill Rogue is part of the game, and I can accept that. But spotlighting it as some kind of innovative, meta-breaking deck concept is disingenuous 

Mill Rogue did not need a spot light. It's been infecting wild in one form or another since the blackrock expansion. This is nothing new, and listing it as a meta-breaker is laughable since half of the rogues I meet are Mill Rogues. 

Thanks for spotlighting an evergreen concept that has been one of the most frustrating and one-sided to play against for years now. Whats next? An in-depth guide to how Barnes/Resurrect Priest is changing the face of the wild format?

Even Recruit Warrior.... I tried so hard to get that one to work. 

/PoursSomeOut

Just doing my usual weekly brawl stuff. Got my Classic pack for winning once and got my Rhastakan pack for play 3 times. Business as usual. 

What was in the classic pack? Cenariusand Faceless Manipulator. Amazing!! What great luck!! Now lets open the Rhasta pack. 

What?!?!?!? Krag'wa, the Frog too. Unbelievable!! I'll never see this luck again.

Rexxar has the strongest hero power, infinite value!

 He maybe the strongest in Standard but in Wild infinite value have much less impact because aggro is insanely fast and have tons and tons of combos, infinite value is a control killer.

wow, playing big priest and burn mage, please go back to standard

Quote from kitox_me >>

imagine crafting wild decks

 

Imagine only playing standard

No way O.o 

Only 36 hours in and people still want to try their new legendary cards??? Whoaow! 

B/c Wild is a fake mode

• Limitations: Card draw and generation

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Good looking changes though. I definately like brightwing!

I used to "counter rope" on a 1-for-1 basis.  Then I realized that all I was doing was compounding the "this guy is wasting my time" problem.  If anything, I tend to play faster when someone is purposefully roping me at the end of every turn.  While their rope is burning, I'm figuring out what I want to do next.  You want to sit there and do nothing?  Go ahead.  My time isn't so precious that you wasting an extra 6 minutes of it over a duration of a game is going to bug me much.  

Did you ever play Skulking Geist and burn half of your opponent's deck?

I really enjoy it as well. For f2p it's great enjoyment imo.
