...but then wouldn't it work the other way too? You face 6 decks with no Ooze so you play Bomb Warrior and suddenly see tons of Oozes. This is why these threads always fall apart. You say that the system is set up to punish you and only you.

People point to the idea that Blizzaed wants everyone's winrate close to 50%. So if you have a 60% positive record, let's say, and have a deck that is strong against weapons, the game might pit you against a deck you are less favored to win against to even it out. I'm not even sure how well they could or would micro manage that, but it's the closest I can see to even begin to fathom the point of this thread.

Ok, so I don't believe Galaxy is particularly broken or anything. I'm not really salty about the card; I just wanted to address why I think the buff was a mistake. 

Having Galaxy on turns 4 or 5 feels a lot like having Barnes or Kalaseth on curve. It turns a normal game of Hearthstone into one that significantly tilts in one players favor. Many cards swing games, but most are not lynchpins of entire decks built around hoping to draw and play said cards on curve. It makes games significantly less fun in my opinion. 

Another factor to this is the card's Legendary status. When an opponent coins out a Barnes, Kalaseth, or Galaxy, it feels cheesy. This is one of the problems with Hero cards that developers have been making progress on so I hope they consider the issue for other cards as well. 

So no calls for nerfing the card or anything, just a plea to developers to consider this issue in the future.

I think a better idea would be to have a Brawl where everyone has a complete set of cards or something.

Congrats!!

What kind of control deck? Does mine also have an OTK element? Can I apply pressure with large minions? There are so many different types of Control decks. I didn't answer for that reason, but after reading your spoiler, I'd like to point out that I would assume you were playing Antonidas OTK as that is the more common deck so I would trigger your secrets consistently. You say I know it's this deck, but how would I know that?

Cool exercise in theory-crafting, but I don't think it would realistically be applied unless this somehow became a tier 1 deck. 

Piloted Shredder includes the pilot who appears when the Shredder is destroyed. Ships Cannon can just lay there. 

I'm 36. I've loved games all my life. Been playing Magic for 23 years, and Hearthstone since Naxxramas. I'm also working on a perfect Final Fantasy 9 game file. (Just finished 7, 8, and 12 over the last few years)

I have made Legend in the past, but get to Rank 5 every month before disregarding rank and having fun now. 

I am married and work a fulfilling job. I have two children and they both have showed interest in games so we'll see where that leads. Overall, I embrace who I am and plan to be a gamer until I die.
