What is people's stance at mill decks now? I know in the past they were regarded uninteractive and unfun to play against, but I'd argue recently we got much worse decks in that regard. And while I understand that playing against a mill deck may feel frustrating, it can certainly be pressured and rushed down and it is kinda it's purpose to punish greedy control/combo decks.
I write this because I've just recently tried MIll Rogue again (in Wild but still) and I felt it did quite well against Priest in particular as one could expect. Is it potentially meta viable if Priest becomes even more insane?
If you are playing a slower wild deck, she should always be a consideration. Her power level is just so insane, she can still flip games when played in the right moment. What a card.
Pressuring him, dodging aoe, able to get him to 10 hp and no board, i have full board. He plays Velen + Spirit Lash --- kills some of my minions and fully heals. Kill Velen, keep pressuring him. He plays his DK, starts killing my minions at mach speed, even faster later with Raza.
Around turn 15 i have no board and no hand. We're both reaching fatigue, he has like 5 cards left and less than 10 hp. He plays his draw cards he didn't get earlier - PW shield, Gnomish Inventor and Loot Hoarder and takes fatigue damage. Turn before he kills me, I kill the loot hoarder and when he takes final fatigue damage on his turn he's at 1 hp................... (he didnt even put Reno in his deck wtf)
So I was playing wild tempo elemental mage with quite some burst. Queued into a jade druid. Got an early board control so I decided to race him to 0. In that game he played 2x Feral Rage for 16 armor, 2x Ultimate Infestation for 10 armor and Earthen Scales for 5 and 10 armor leaving him at 10 hp before I lost. Fuck this.

I certainly didn't expect Poe references.

Me - Zoo Priest (i know) vs. Raza Priest in Wild:

Surprised it wasn't mentioned here - flavor text is a reference to The Terminator.
