I believe he would either summon a board of minions like Onyxia or Hogger, AND incorporate some sort of buffs, since it was heavily implied they're more of a gang who overwhelm by numbers.

It'd be surprising if he ends up with an inspire effect.

Maybe the mana cost should go up, it is just like polymorph...

I hate that card as well, because it fits well into decks and just like Entomb and Polymorph it removes minions without any DR effect that can destroy your whole gameplan. Here i'm happy to play wild with DR7, because the bots will still be there and not 100% destroy your tempo, like a hexed new deathwing or Tirion

 

Priests actually do have really good value-based cards. The problem they have is their cards aren't pro-active, but rather very reactive. If Priests get good pro-active early game they're just gonna keep winning later on due to the nature of their cards. This is why they're difficult to balance and why the entire class in some ways limits design options. Combo decks destroys them because they have no effective, proactive win-condition, unlike Warrior, so they just wait to be killed.

If Blizzard can pull off giving priests proactive cards without breaking the entire game, then Priests will definitely be in a better position than they are now. I do hope for more shadow-based cards, and at least more class-based cards that isn't ultra-reactive and situational.

The hate is there because this isn't an expansion, this is an adventure. The small pool of cards around should mean they could strive to make them meta-defining than having them as filler. A 2-mana 3/2 with taunt i only really great in arena.

Mages rarely ever do anything on turn 1 except skipping the turn or playing Mana Wyrm. This card is great value otherwise but makes you wonder why not just put in the spell you want. Either way you got an early game body with the card. It's good in my book.

Well, hopefully the day that Blizzard decides to spoil the Priest class with good cards and early game minions is not too far away. Usually Priest gets good cards from Adventure cards set. 

- Naxxramas = Dark Cultist

- BRM = Twilight Welp

- LoE = Entomb, Museum Curator, Excavated Evil

I'm surprised Priest got voted on so much. I agree having to go back to the inconsistent Auchenai+Circle combo is a pain in the arse and definitely heavily nerfed Priest, but I vote Druid for the worst class in Standard with Priest a close second. C'thun Priest is actually playable compared to C'thun Druid, which is highly inconsistent. Deathrattle Priest is a decent pick on ladder with either Volazj or N'zoth (never do both).

On the other hand Ramp/ Midrange Druid is pretty viable in the current meta. It's the class I'm using to climb right now. It took me an entire week to create a proper deck with a decent winrate for Druid

Mind Blast and Doomsayer = Easy game.

I know, lol.

I'm gonna craft myself Deathwing, Dragonlord ,N'Zoth, the Corruptor and Herald Volazj. And then I'm gonna craft the rest of the Priest WoG cards.

I dusted mine, and I don't often dust my cards.

Or Turn 4 Auchenai, Turn 5 Darkshire Alchemist

Double Molten Giant + Sunfury Protector combo has often been a devastating tempo swing that pretty much ends games. Molten Giant punishes your opponent for playing efficiently with a comeback that's insanely difficult to deal with. This nerf ensures there won't be too much abuse.

It is a slow card, but generally it's kinda like an investment. If you're losing, it's definitely not gonna pull you out of it, but if you have the board properly maintained, it's gonna be great. It's a setup card, and it fits a few decks plus a few classes more than others.

The cost is fine. Embrace the Shadow already is a 2 mana, 2 cards board removal if combo'd with Circle of Healing, and that's ridiculous! I trust Blizzard's decision to have it at this cost.
