    I can't tell you how many players add me to throw insults because I have an all gold deck; for a point I stopped running them for that reason.

    I'm sure your analysis of us is purely objective and is not caused by jealously or hate towards players that have spent money on the game.

    I'll bite though; if someone has an all gold collection, they are probably working adults.  That means they may be multitasking (playing at work, paying bills, or dealing with kids and a wife).   

     You stopped running a deck because people were giving you grief over it?  Yikes.

    Quote from Morkimus >>

    Ranked is supposed to be "Play to win", if you want fun, go to casual. I highly doubt you'd climb with Purify Priest, at least if your aim is high.

     There are fun competitive decks.  Miracle Rogue and Reno decks are immense fun.

    Is the game supposed to be fun?  Yea.  Climbing the ranks should certainly be entertaining, and not feel like a chore.

    Hey is there some resource about Wilds meta decks? There is plenty of info about Standard but not much on Wild. Thinking about disenchanting my Neptulon since he probably sees 0 play in Wild?

    He sees no play in Wild. The most common decks are:

    Pirate Warrior - Same as Standard, plus Death's Bite and Ship's Cannon.
    Dragon Priest - Same as Standard, plus Velen's Chosen.
    Reno Priest (dragon theme) - Same as Standard, plus Lightbomb and Sludge Belcher.
    Reno Warlock - Same as Standard, plus Sludge Belcher.
    Aggro/Midrange Shaman - Same as Standard.
    Miracle Rogue - Same as Standard.

    Less common are:
    Anyfin Paladin - Same as Standard, plus Old Murk-Eye.
    Freeze Mage - Same as Standard.

    It may vary a lot from that in the lower ranks though.
    Don't play wild, but I would think a nzoth Pally would be filthy.

    Continues to be dismissive and condescending. 

    If you're going to keep avoiding the question, then I think we're done here.  You have no data to backup your claim.  

    If you think every Priest deck ever and every single board state/situation is purely about trading, then you are seriously short-sighted. 

    So dragon priest isn't about board trading? The body on this minion isn't an advantage? Even though it's essentially a chill wind yeti with a ridiculous mechanic?  You seem a bit new to the game, so do you know what vanilla stats are?
    Are you saying the question you keep spamming when you have nothing else?  I've countered everything you've brought rather easily. Your own data works against you. It's time to stop with the data spam. It isn't working or helping your prove anything, and makes you look foolish. 
     Dragon Priest is a tempo deck, not a control deck.  The point is, you might get powerful cards via DrakOP, but in a lot of situations, the "best scenario" doesn't happen and playing the really powerful card is likely not the best play.  
    I keep asking the question because you have failed to provide any actual data.  As far as I know, I am the only person in the entire thread to provide any. 
    PLease read a deck guide about dragon priest. It will probably help you play it properly. Board control is the main objective, and isn't indicative of a control deck.  
     Board control isn't an archetype, but a concept central to nearly every deck, ever (outside of fatigue/OTK/combo perhaps).  But that's besides the point.  Where is this so-called data, Matt?  Ready to admit you have none, or are you simply going to quote this post but not include this very specific and direct question?
    Read this guide and attempt to get better at the game. Then maybe you'll play OP properly.

     I agree, I believe you are the only one to provide anything worth analyzing. This is why Operative is great but not always the best play, and even when it is it's not like you can just expect your opponent to lose shortly after. The body is great sure (and it's Pit Fighter you're thinking of, reading is good kids), but it's still just vanilla stats and in line with literally every other Dragon design that requires a trigger.
    You really haven't countered anything. This is like those games you "owned" the Priests, no one really thinks you're winning right now.
     No doubt you agree. You're both pretty clueless about the class and card. Please post a deck guide for dragon priest that doesn't emphasize board control.

    I don't get how this card is OP. No different than any other card where you could choose one out of three cards. It's just that this time it's from your opponent's deck.

     WHich is a lot smaller of a pool than a class and better cards to choose from. Also allows you to see what's in your opponents deck.

    @MattMurdock77; furthermore if you're going to call someone out for lack of substance, you should start with your own posts. I've yet to see any.

    Be careful though, you might actually have to type or read multiple paragraphs.

     THen you haven't been reading anything I've been writing. Of course you also think this card is similar to thoughtsteal, so that's to be expected.

    @MattMurdock77; okay, so the comparison to Thoughtsteal is stupid how? Make the logical connection, I'm pointing out that taking cards from your deck that set you in an absurdly good position are not new and in both cases certainly fringe. And ShruteBucks' spreadsheet was indicating exactly that, alongside your own "data"; Discover makes it stronger, certainly but that's why it has a trigger to activate. Most of those cards weren't huge, and in most of the games Operative was irrelevant.

    Once again, trying to pass off someone's analysis as "you probably misplayed" is completely pathetic when you deflected the idea of you misplaying in those games as me not knowing specifics about the state of the game. Like either you get to be right there, or my point becomes instantly valid again; you can choose.

    You're grasping at straws with "design space", because you don't actually understand what that means. Horkinger summed it up well. If you keep trotting it out, it won't do anything other than continue to make it obvious you don't actually have any good reasoning.

     WEll for starters..for two mana more you select the card you want, and get a 5/6 dragon. That's a pretty big deal. If you think you can pass off the mechanic as not working without seeing the game or board I can't help you. He could have screwed up the game royally before it's even dropped. When I play it I have the board so I can trade...which he doesn't seem to get that's what dragon priest does. If you don't think those cards he drew were great cards I don't know what to tell you. All would be HR if obtained from your thoughtsteal you're trying to compare. Multiple removal, face spells and legendaries.

    "Needs a body reduction"

    based on feels or facts?  Where's this so-called data? 

     Similar cards, minions and effects. All of which have been covered weeks ago ITT. Youre drowning. Throw in the towel. 
     Cards are allowed to be stronger than previously printed cards, especially class cards.  In the 22 games I recorded with DrakOP, guess how many decided the game on the spot, based on the 5/6 body?  None.  Guess how many decided the game on the spot because of the discover?  None.  Sure, discovering White Eyes three times was pretty funny, but discovering it ONCE didn't decide the game.  In fact, if I were to evaluate every game vs Shaman where White Eyes was discovered, I'd be willing to bet in a majority of games, playing it wasn't the best option and didn't decide the game on the spot.  
    Where's this so-called data, Matt? 
     Bless your heart. Priest is about board trading. If you don't think the body is a big deal then you should play another class and get better at the game.
