Not sure if it would help, but do remember there is always Wild too, if your collection there is deeper

I understand that, but i'm between Rank 10 and Rank 5 where i find just Jade druids and some exodia mages. This is a problem for me, becouse i don't like other classes and i play just priest, so it will be very hard, mby almost impossible to reach rank 5 JUST with priest... But i don't have other oprion.

... no, because they aren't stupid!

1. Its early.

2. Druid has plenty of strong counters, if you choose intentionally to not play 'em your own fault.

3. The majority of the playerbase doesn't experience any of this for a multitude of reasons all ranging from arena to casual mode and rank 25-20 being the most populated part of the entire ladder! A place where druids are NOT common because they climb too fast or they are playing something entirely different from what everyone is whining about.

Nerfs should never be made willy-nilly and frankly, the idea of letting the community find counters is a lot better than Blizzard coming in once every week to dictate what we are allowed to play and not. I'd much rather play a deck I can trust rather than throwing away all of my dust and my collection for the whims of the vocal minority on social media.

So... no, Hearthstone will not die from this and there's not even any evidence yet that Druid needs to be fixed. There are 'indications' of that Druid 'might' (as in 'you can actually debate this because there are plenty of counters to druid that makes the ladder a good healthy place') be too strong but 'indications' and 'evidence' are two VASTLY different things! Evidence needs to be backed up by stats over time and indications... if I buy a bunch of apples that's an indication that I like apples but that can be entirely wrong as I might be buying 'em for someone else and I could personally be allergic to 'em.

Indications: Not trustworthy and completely worthless for all intent and purposes... and this also happens to be what most folks on Reddit, YouTube, Twitch and especially here on Hearthpwn use in place of evidence.

Evidence: Statistics with a large sample-size. There's no wiggle-room in this defintion as this is the only useful definiton of what evidence is... anything else is just homebrewed opinions.

 when you have about 75% of the player base complaining, i'd say something is wrong.

just because you think it is fine doesn't mean it is.

Well I'm not sure, but here's my logic:

If Sylvanas is killed and her Deathrattle acts prior to the rest of the spell (kill the opposition minion), you might wind up with Cairne even. Otherwise as stated above, it would depend which was played first. 

It would be interesting to test it in a game with a friend. 

I have found it to be very inconsistent of a deck against both Aggro and midrange decks as it is very hard to contest the board in the early game and if you've lost that it's hard to get it back mid and late. On the other hand, God draws happen, and if I've managed to find time to play Raza, and have survived intact to play N'Zoth or DK then I can close out a win. I don't think I've dominated or been in a spot I'd call unlosable more than once, and always rely on draw.

That's my view from playing it. 

Just as an aside, I was playing without a Geist against a Jade Druid, and Thoughtsteal after a few shuffles of Idol helped set me up for an eventual win be giving me cheap spells to reset my hero power. So be careful what you wish for there :)

Honestly, the only thing pissing me off is that I have to test dumb casual decks in ranked at this point in time already because Casual is still flooded with Pirate cancer and doesn't allow any casual decks to be played unless you load over a third of your deck with anti-aggro cards.

It's up to you. It's a very powerful card in any meta and/or deck where you can play an 8 mana card without dying, generates (almost) guaranteed value (I say almost because some DK cards aren't great in all decks/situations), is a taunt so needs some kind of answer, and if he stays on the board in those situations as mentioned he'll snowball the game out of reach. 

On the other hand, getting to turn 8 in that state hasn't always been guaranteed, and a silence followed by all the pirates/murlocs/jades/evolved doppelgangsters/whatever else has flooded the board,  hitting your face might ruin your day. 

So yeah, pros and cons, craft what you want :) 

I would say just remember it's not a minion. So if anything said "discover a minion from your opponents deck" you wouldn't find the DK. The Lich King card that steals a minion from your opponents deck is a good example: you won't get the DK, it isn't a minion. But other things like Thoughtsteal can get it for sure (based on the wording of the cards, obviously I haven't tested it since it isn't live yet)

edit: I'm also not really sure for Sindragosa. It is basically a two edged sword, which might prove itself a little bit too clunky with the whole value generation. True - you get a legendary when you ping the token AND you get a water elemental (if already in DK form) but if you are unable to ping the token (turn 9 or no mana), your opponent can kill them and get the leggies. This is the real downside of this card.

Quote from Teknician >>

Mostly because Gnomeregan Infantry exists. I know this has 0 Attack, but it only loses 1/1 over a card that costs 3 for the same effect. Turn 1 Purehearted + The Coin + Blessing of Might = Immediate 3/3 with Taunt that deals 3 damage. That's pretty OP.

It's a combo. How is that different from, let's say, coin, innervate, barnes?

Quote from McThar >>

Discarding at most 6 cards (at least, lets say 1, because of Fireball) is no downside?

Nerf to Auctionmaster Beardo!

Quote from Oshigawa >>

You can always play Eternal Sentinel and Lava Shock. Though, for standard only Eternal Sentinel. Nice play with Trogg in Wild. VERY nice play.

If you play this on curve you cannot play Eternal Sentinel and Lava Shock. Turn 3 play this, turn 4 you have 1 mana.

Has anyone done the windows clock trick with the pre-order? Or did they fix that? 

This looks like another person's attempt to fake a card supposedly to counter Jade Idol. It looks mostly bad, with a smattering of unlikely. But hey, I could be wrong

Edit: looks like I was wrong. Man, I'm not excited by this card at all. Really unfun feel and just.... Yeah, no, not excited at all.
