They said they considered Ice Block a few months ago after the nerfs then.

Considering Mage has zero life gaining I needs it 

 Ice Barrier x2  is basically a 16hp gain.

I wish someone had had the common sense to address flame waker at an earlier point. There's no point now because BRM will cycle out but it just ruins games. Flame Waker turns a respectable archetype - Tempo Mage - into cancer. 

Yeah, ppl were rocking Kobold Geomancer like a boss before Flamewanker hit.

Tempo mage was a thing back then...

You eventually need to win, so some obvious ones:

Backstab

Deadly Poison

si-7 agent

asasinate

Shadow Strike

Preparation (reno/yogg deck, right)

Do you have Captain Greenskin?

 1. I don't own SI-7, Preparation or Captain Greenskin

2. Please do not suggest more than one card at once, i want other people to have a chance in suggesting a card. If you suggest a second card after like 10 hours then thats fine, but not like this.

TL;DR Im gonna ignore this for now, and you can either edit this to have just one card or make a new post with only 1 card.

I think combo-decks (most rogues, freeze mage, patron warrior) are generally the most difficult, as you have to make a lot of decicions to use a card in a big combo later or tempo/removal now. Every one of those matter, and every matchup is different.

Control mirrors are also skill intensive, especially old handlock and control-warrior ones. The better player should have the upper hand in those.

Idk if aggro is easy, there are important trade/non trade-choices to be made, aoe-to be played around and draw-chances/damage to be calculated.

The easiest is probably tempo vs control when control draws badly, just play curve and run them over...

Quote from Piterik >>

to be honest yogg saron thing from below and Tuskarr totemic was 100x more Overpowered and broken than for example Dr Boom.

 

Mysterious challenger plays 5 secrets for free. Yogg plays  10-25 spells for free

 Aggo freeze mage is pretty good. Take a torch- freeze mage, take out everything that cost 5+ and ice barriers, add tempo-mage early-game minions.

Go face ... use novas and ice blocks to buy time to draw lethal.

Quite a few control warriors around, though, that matchup is close to impossible for the deck...

When Big Game Hunter started to show up in zoo as well as every warror, paladin, druid and slower warlock decks, it was time to make a move. Having a 6-10 being better than a 15-15 because of bgh-weakness was simply silly. It was not just for dr. Boom, but for every future and present 7+ attack minion. I am pissed he took Molten Giant with him, though, as he was the only card really punishing going face too much.

Entomb, Emperor and the cancer shaman cards will be gone so no matter what I'm happy. I'm also glad Peddler will disappear.

Quote from FreeDrinks >>

maybe but only maybe they will understand why wc3 and the first starcraft are still amazing games compared to HS or any other title they have released lately. it is the game design and BALANCE that makes a good game. 

right now the game consists of 1 deck, midrange shamen. all other decks are redundant

Well, when everybody put the imba-cards in their decks, what is the problem? Strong neutral cards actually make the classes more balanced. Class powerhouses like Blood To Ichor and Thing from Below are the problem in standard, but in Wild, they are barely visible because of the strong neutrals.

Quote from Goliathar1 >>

People that are overly apprehensive and butt hurt are NOT the target player audience. Sorry it's "too expensive" for you. Maybe write a letter to blizz asking for golden legendaries for free for you with no risk? 

 Better existing offers: Buying packs with gold.

Arena.

Ladder play.

 

Working overtime for 1 hour to spend on Arena or packs. 

 

WHY pay for this LIMITED TIME Heroic Brawl when better options exists..?

 

It's limited time, dammit, replacing the mode everyone gets 1 free pack from each week:

If the mode's total rewards for 1000 Players was "gold in + 100 000" that'd be the normal Brawl loss.

They're doing the opposite: 

1000 Players -->  1 000 000  in

700 000 gold worth of rewards out.

Blizzard "earns" 300 000 gold. Which only serves to reduce players gold amounts; less goods for players.

A normal Brawl is more profitable for most players than this:

1000 Players --> No gold in

100 000 gold worth if rewards out.

Blizzard loses 100 000 gold. But players only earn personal in-game goods, which benefits Blizzard.

Quote from angelo992001 >>

i use casual for testing and laddering in both

14 in standard. 15 in wild.

midrange hunter is extremely effective in wild. especially against the non reno decks.

im building secret paladin for a bit of fun but saving most of my dust for the expansion

No Velen? Limited card-draw? I think this can be optimized.

Wait until you get into the Shaman/Warrior/Druid ranks. I think this deck will be eaten alive...

Quote from iandakar >>

 (...)

 

To put it another way though.  if I get my numbers right, for every 5 people who enter the brawl, 1 person will get that 12th win prize.  

 That Looks pretty much. That means in General every Person has a 20% chance of getting 12 wins. I can't imagine that, to be honest. Then it wouldn't be bad at all.

If they actually match equal win ratio Players together, 1 Person out of 4096 should get a 12-0 (all others will have lost at least one time). But I couldn't be bothered to calculate all the other People who will end up with 12 wins. According to you, it should be 800+x. That's a lot of dust People will gain.
