Do not underestimate the power of freezing taunt, a bigger Snowchugger that can survive against multiply small\medium minions that trades into him is no joke.

i would rate it very good both in a aggressive fast meta and slow controlish meta.

High attack weapon + Vampiric posion + blade flurry = Reno-like heal against big boards? ME LIKE IT

Mini loatheb with continues affect, great against mages\rogues\druids(?).

IMO, very good card, should be great in decks with minion based removal (elementals\dragon\whatever). 

I bet the hero power will be " add random elemental to your hand" or if they want to make it broken: "discover elemental"

They don't implement autosquelch because they don't want to implement it, not because it's hard to implement.

It's literally 2 lines of code in the match initialization phase  and a small addition to the options menu.

Fact is that you play mostly against rank 1and 2 players and occasionally against legends, so that is negligible. But even if you  would only play against legend players you still need to get to rank 2 with an above 50% wr. Math says, not everyone can get there.

 Correct, but you play against a good amount of Legend players, not negligible, it is actually why in Theory, if every player has the same level of skill (or luck in certain cases) and time to play the games requires, they will all reach it. Not rank 2, you will get matched with Legend players even at lower ranks. The lowest I ever got matched with a Legend player was Rank 6, yes 6. It made no sense to me, but it happened :s... But those are really rare, mostly you face Legend players at Rank 1, 2, sometimes 3...

It's possible because lower amount of players you have at your rank, the more players you face from higher ranks. Once those players in Rank 1 and 2 all get Legend, and even if in theory, every rank 1 and 2 goes up to Legend, then you will get matched with Legend ranks instead of 1 and 2, so it's still possible to reach Legend, you just get to face more Legend players as there are less players at your rank.

That being said, the actual question the OP was asking was not if it's possible for all players to simultaneosly be Legend, but actually, if its possible for any player to reach Legend, or if there is some barrier to entry, so to say.

Yes.

You just need to pick a tier 1 deck that is consistence enough (50%+ winrate in this meta) , preferable self piloted (high skill floor) and to play enough games to get from rank 5 to legend.

Best picks for now are pirate warrior, quest rogue or one of the flood decks (druid\shaman), the characteristic you're looking for is highly polarized matches, you either crush your opponent that can't answer your early game or lose horribly because he can.

Again? we had this brawl not too long time ago :\

Battletag: Alon#2520
Region: EU
Trade only? Yes, you go first

Done

Couldn't agree more!

With such a high probability to get one of the 5 (!!) playable shaman taunts (Thing from below, Alakir, Earth elemental, White eye and hot-spring guardian) this card is fantastic.

Most of the ladder matches has nothing to do with quest completion, unless 50% of the quests are warrior related somehow.

Fun and interactive

Wow, Deathlord is from two rotations ago - he must have not played Arena for over a year!

Why does the priest quest rated so high?

Playing so many dearthrattle and survive against an aggro swarm is hard, and having 40 health against control is pointless, so against which deck this quest is actually good? (probably OTK or finite damage combos)
