It's been soft spoiled by a Streamer that the new Dragon Paladin Legendary could potentially lead to an OTK.... Which make me sad...

Just 2 legenday from 50 packs, my worst performance ever :)

Hope I'll have better luck with the next 60ish pack i'll got from gold.

 Good luck everyone with the opening

Omega Assembly can only fish in current Mech pool since the expansion is not live yet, so ofc you got horrible mech every times :D

Wow insane outcome :D, this card will feed a lots of  Trolden videos for sure

From what I have seen on preview firegate stream, mech are really flexible and can really contest the board very well. We will see in a couple of weeks how they'll perform in the new meta, but maybe someone was too quick to judge them....

I think he was reffering to play the cards, not just see them :)

This is one of the best target for Kangor's Endless Army. Not too bad with The Boomship also.

So we have a vanilla 10/10 for 10 mana Mech. Good to get in a turn 10 Omega Assembly + The Boomship combo.

With Boom Aura is... fantastic. Even played alone is 4 mana 6 dmg to minions. But without the rush effect it loose a lot of versality, soo... okish card I guess?

I'm pretty sure that's IMPossible.

So hear me out...

Giving a select few streamers early access to the latest expansion is leaving a bit of a bitter taste in my mouth. I feel like they're taking that initial experimentation we all get on release day (finding out cards we hyped are actually trash and vice versa) and giving it to a select few.

I understand this won't be the new meta entirely, but it's on the path towards it - It's the pros and the streamers that tend to build the foundations of the decks we'll all be using in a month or so. 

I know I don't have to watch it, and I can't say it's not enjoyable seeing the new cards in play, it just feels like the hearthstone community is being deprived of that day 1 unpredictably and experimentation.

Could be just me though!

Will play in wild against big priest - polymorh, this on the ship, enjoy your resurrects

This guys videos are the greatest part of every expansion.

This? This - and hecklebot - are solidly designed for a healthy meta. This one's understatted enough that it's a proper tech card; heckle is autoinclude in control. High variance card in most situations; only really spell-based combos that don't rely on endless spells to draw, that it hits - and naming those is probably tricksy. Will do great work against something like Holy Wrath pally, where it's telegraphed so obviously, though still a RNG play.

It'a a safety valve for the metagame, and what HS needs (speaking as a combo player).

Also, listen all'y'all...

So, they are pushing OTK decks and then they are making all those tech cards against OTK decks. I wonder where that will lead to... Maybe control will be king in the new meta?

 I think it will simply make control more viable again. These disruption cards are excellent, but some combos simply avoid the effects if you can't play distruption in time. Hecklebot can't summon a Mecha'thun when it's in your hand. Unseen Saboteur might pull the wrong spell if the combo isn't your entire final hand. you still have to draw the cards in time, too.

This is what makes control design healthier than combo (when done correctly): combo essentially does everything it can to draw and stall until it combos, largely ignoring or otherwise stymieing attacks on face, while control makes an effort to out value (with disruption being a measured gamble aside from cards like Mojomaster Zihi). Combo feels bad to play against because they just need to draw into their combo and last long enough, while control must use their resources in a largely reactive way. Aggro vs control is cat and mouse; combo vs control is "How unlucky is my combo draw?"; and aggro vs combo is a race to beat face before stabilization. 

I just realized this is getting long and preachy, but suffice it to say that these disruption cards only help control exist again vs combo/otk, which is a difficult archetype to design in a healthy way.

Your comment is a filler for this comment section

Small indie company strikes again:

1- Cards not adding lackeys to the player's hand when they should (super embarrassing).

2- Cora Georgiou is a terrible Hearthstone player.

3- Super annoying talk (much more than usual), especially thanks to this lady, Cora Georgiou.

4- Not even a funny moment (at least none yet).

5- Roping almost every single turn.

Ok, the stream hasn't ended yet, but it is so bad I'm feeling sorry for Peter Whelen. :P It is really hard to continue watching it, feels like torture...

What are your thoughts, people?

Kibler sounds really pissed in the interview, and rightfully so.

They literally failed to address the OTK decks that plague the ladder right now, and OTK decks tend to suck the fun out of Hearthstone.

 Well he seemed to be getting more pissed cus all blizzard does is sidestep questions that are legitimate.  Kibler has been playing TCGs for 24 years and hes 100% right what would fix the game and blizzard just doesnt want to try something different with fear of losing a playerbase.
