So in this little thread the fanboy-pundits and the ordinary ones bind together once again as Hearthstone Mandarins. Doing the bidding of their intellectual masters riding the bandwagon as fellow travellers defending skill-contemptious card design.
Let me look over the weeds.
Did angry kids just found a new Barnes to blame?
Typical comment of an fanboy-commoner. No arguments, not even bad ones. These are the Blizzards foot soldiers. Cannon feed. Not much respect.
That is exactly what I say about the card that I recently lost to.
Same as the above. The stupidity flows like a festering wound.
If you outplayed your opponent for several turns, there is no single one card that will just hand them the win. If a single Classic/Basic Set card is enough to fully turn the game you say you were outplaying your opponent in, then you overestimated your position
Ah yes, here we have true HS-pundit comment. Always getting the likes he's looking for. Outplaying your opponent for several turns? There's hardly such thing as outplaying your opponent in HS. For that the game is too aggressive, the skill floor too low. Not to speak of to steep a RPS, combined withan abundance of randomness. But he good try. You got your like!
It doesn't undermine anything. It simply adds a very annoying aspect to the game. It forces the player to contemplate at all times, if the opponent plays the card, what is the way in which it will fuck you up the hardest, out of every card in the Classic and Basic Sets.
Same speaker. Same pundit. A joy to read bandwagon commentators. Zephrys doesn't force anything. It is designed as a extremely political card that benefits aggressive decks more than the more thoughtful, slower gameplay. It is designed to attract players looking for fast and easy winfix strategy. In danger of losing the board? Play Zeph. wisely for the right tempo swing.
Losing to this card is like losing against junior, while you are the more experienced senior. One time, no problem, but as a systemic disease it's target audience oriented. It is there to curb winning based on skill.

I like to spell Rouge in HS. It makes more sense on how u pronounce it. And honestly it sounds lame other way. I would advise not reading following paragraph as it will be full off ROUGE.
I like my Kingsbane DR Rouge (wild) .Pre nerf it was my fav Rouge deck to play. Its wasnt consistent but hey of all Rouges decks i played this was mine. It made me happy lil Rouge. And then bliizard added Academic Espionage for Rouge. Its a Rouge class epic card that cost 4 mana and once its played it gives u 10 random cards in your Rouge deck. That deck type is usualy call Thief Rouge. It doesent have a high win rate but off all Rouge decks it became my fav Rouge deck that ever Rouge.
