Jan'alai, the Dragonhawk Odd Mage just became REALLY damn scary. Lot more cards coming tho so let´s see.

 but Khadgar costs 2 mana, i.e. is an even-cost card

 Which doesn't matter anymore, since Baku is going to Hell Wild.

The only thing this seems useful for is for getting rid of those awkward cards like Malygos or Ysera.
It's more expensive than SW:P to get rid of a 3-attack minion (which is most 2 to 4 cost cards) and SW:Death is cheaper to remove anything over 4 health.
Not saying it's a bad card in the slightest. It's a brilliant tech removal... for 4 health minions at least... For any other minions, it's badly costed and the downside is that it wastes your mana in the process, ending your go.

It's playable, but "insane"? Hardly...

The thing is that it can function as both the shadow words. While being expensive to be SW:D, it's better than having SW:P vs a Big dude.
You exchange efficiency for flexibility.

Blizz, can you please take Chris Sierra out of videos, he's really annoying!

Actually, the new expansion looks great to me.

When the rotation hits, year of the mammoth is out and with that all those crazy OP cards, making the new cards and the cards of year of the raven relevant and not underwhelming anymore. It's gonna be a whole new game imo.

I'm looking forward to the nex expansion a lot.

This brawl is freaking AMAZING! Soooo good

Some people just hear what they want to hear in ANYTHING...

This will work, but over 2 turns, so it's counter-able after soooo many turns seeing hunter's poor card draw.

That's a terrible combo

Not me. Quests were too demanding and made gameplay too simular. Didn't like it, hope to never see it again. Maybe in a version of Rin it's fine, that was cool.

I wouldn't recommend that. Whizbang is mostly fun the first 2 weeks of a new expansion, to be able to play all the cards (without being a whale). The recipes showcase those. After that those decks usually aren't competitive enough to play much. Normal craft is good enough imo.

an issue in casual is players who farm dailies against you with meta decks. If you lose enough games your MMR will be low enough to miss out on those maybe. Conceding when you recognize a tier 1 deck is not always a fun but possibly viable strategy to keep it light and fun.

I hope they revert the change at least when it goes to wild. Every other effect except echo (or anything that can go infinite) was not broken with this card, but now a lot of combos have been made worse just to enable 1 new card to be costed at 3. Bad blizzard

Plays the slowest, most patience oriented deck in the meta..  complains that seeing other Warriors ruins his play experience.  OMEGALUL.

Yep, and for the most part people only focus on full-on expensive meta decks at the start of an expansion which is unfortunate. The first few weeks is not the time to be crafting cards for players on a budget. Finding them lists they can enjoy and be competitive with at some levels of the ladder without breaking the bank is quite important!

I agree though, more mid-cost decks would be a nice addition. Usually they come in the form of taking a current meta deck and finding suitable replacements for legendary or epic cards while retaining the same core game concepts. You lose some power but if people like the deck they can go all in and craft the fully upgraded version which is pretty cool. Sadly with the way many decks are built now though and how unique legendaries are to them, there's not as many friendly-cost versions of meta decks.

Token Druid.  But with Treants.

I got a golden rafaam! :D

Taunt is cheat

Blood of The Ancient One?

This card is a huge nerf to Millhouse Manastorm.

Also, amazing synergy with a wild control deck that contains Medivh, the Guardian

It may not be the best card or even all that good, but it seems really fun to try building a deck around this. Ysera, Oondasta, Damaged Stegotron, Witchwood Grizzly, Amani War Bear, Big Bad Archmage, Blackhowl Gunspire (OH YES), Archmage Vargoth... There are a lot of possibilities. We will lose quite a few good survival tools, but i think we still have enough to make this work. I'm gonna give it a shot for sure!
