Hi, not long come back after a few years away from the game.. just wondering why they thought introducing Renathal, the deck giving you 10 extra health and 10 extra cards in your deck was ever good for the game? 

it’s the most toxic thing I’ve seen in this game in the years I’ve played. It brings nothing good to the game and makes each game 5x as long, as it seems like 99% of players from a certain rank onwards, uses this card. 

every time I see an opponent at the start of the game with the little stupid Renathal animation, It makes me want to concede instantly, as it’s so boring and toxic, even though I quite often beat renathal players, it still makes the game a dread to play.

And by not using it myself, it makes me feel like I’m forced to play with it to stand a chance of winning late game, as otherwise you just fatigue.

sick of getting put against people who have turtle long game decks with 40 cards and hp, I just don’t get how they thought it would make the game better. You shouldn’t have to use a card just because you have to, to compete long game.

Toxic Renathal needs removing asap..

was this card flamed about upon its release? I imagine it was, and would be super surprised if it got any good reception from any players at the time!
