At worst, this fixes your mana curve and your topdecks by putting the best card out of 3 for the next turn.
At best, this literally reads “0 mana draw 1 card” and everyone with the slightest knowledge knows how bad drawing for free is for TCG/CCG in general. This is going to be a staple for the next 5 years until they print a better one or they just nerf it in the first week of the expansion. 99,99% of aggro will use this no matter what, it’s a braindead choice.
This is better that any Freeze card that Shaman has received in the past. The worst part of that is, this isn’t really good enough to make the cut in any control warrior style deck. It’s so sad.
They probably are going to waste like half of the buffs on Shaman and it’s still going to be completely useless. Shaman needs a complete rework at this point.
A post which is complaining about people complaining and attacking people personally (calling them pussies) who attack people personally. Sounds like you are part of the problem.
The only reasonable thing I have readed in the entire salty 4.0 post. Too many people wanting to be right in their own way and benefict just makes me want to BM all of them with a 2-hour Hostage Shaman deck.
I was so sad back in the day when they nerfed charge and I didn’t played the Worgen OTK for the “last time”. Now it’s my time to do things right.
The Shaman unnerfs are okey-ish for the most part. I missed the flametongue totem in even Shaman, and Spirit Claws will not have that “25% chance of winning the game instantly on turn 2” anymore.
I can’t remember the last time I was so happy with those changes overall, for better or worse, this means a lot for the future of the game.
Not even a single good or relevant change for Shaman atm, and the spell damage basic totem change doesn’t make anything for better either. I wish to be wrong after we see all of the cards from the new expansion.
My god you guys are so toxic.. The op is being respectful and reasonable, says things like "it SEEMS problematic TO ME", can't you just tell him why you think he's wrong ?
I like how everyone thinks of himself as a great card evaluator but in reality every expansion we are horribly wrong about most cards, we think we learn to be more accurate every expansion but in reality game mechanics and cards combinations evolve much faster than our ability to review them.
I don't see this particular combo as being problematic, but I can absolutely see a world where someone makes Felsoul Jailer problematic in some way or another. If you can make copies of it, silence it or whatever, it can quickly become a crazy anti-control/anti-combo card.
Comparison with tickatus is also unfair, the reason you don't brewmaster tickatus is because you can felosophy it instead, and also because it already costs 13 mana to corrupt and play. And it burns cards from the deck, essentially having 0 immediate impact in exchange for bigger impact later in the game. Felsoul jailer has immediate, potentially massive impact if he burns the right card, so brewmaster makes more sense.
In the grand scheme of things, it's like Tickatus, never going to be problematic because Hearthstone will always be an aggro driven game, but i'm positive a lot of hearthstone toxic members and great card reviewers are going to cry a river because Felsoul discarded their wincondition and they couldn't get back the card in time.
Agreed, it shows the state of the forums when everytime someone puts something people don't agree with and it becomes a hivemind of people snarking and bullying and getting their self satisfying little pathetic jabs in from the safety of behind their own screen. What do mods do about it? Nothing.
That's the Hearthstone community in a nutshell. This game seems to attract a lot of the introverted, socially awkward, angry, basement dweller types, who are incapable of meaningful discussion. Any kind of disagreement, no matter the topic, usually results in unnecessary ad hominem attacks. Anything critical is automatically written off as whining by a large majority of this player base. I honestly have no clue why most players even browse the forums, since no topic is ever actually worth discussing in their minds.
Hearthpwn for the past 5 years. I bet most of this toxic people can’t even handle past Gold rank and think that they opinion even matters when discussing cards or interactions lol
What? I’m dreaming? A shaman legendary that doesn’t suck immediately? Wow! This is amazing, equipping a weapon the turn before for the last points of burst damage. The art is horrible tho.
No, and I want to be wrong too but I don’t have any hopes with Shaman anymore. The common cards and the second legendary have to be THE nuts (talking about totem golem/ 4 mana 7/7 power here) to compensate the lack of epics and legendaries we are receiving this expansion. It’s so sad.

How bad can you be at the game if you lose against devolving missiles. Lol

I can’t even think of the right words to describe this, this is horrendous. I shall change main class and stop stressing myself. My god.

Be sure to save the card if Blizzard decides to change her artwork because of “reasons”.

Saronite and the albatross reverts are going to be great for my Hostage Shaman. It’s going to loss in turn 0 vs aggro but is okay.

A better version of Maelstrom portal, finally a good card for Shaman.

This is the consistency we needed a lot for that Attack Shaman they want to bring us. Tutors are always good tbh.
