Isn't battlecry supposed to take place before the minion hits the board? It may be inconsistent just like with many more cards IMHO.
That's actually a common misconception. Battlecry does take into account the Battlecry minion itself, that's why cards like Deathwing say "Destroy all other minions."
Region: NA Usual Play Times: No set time Level of Experience: Advanced Preferred Heroes: Every class except Priest. I’m Looking For: People to talk to about the game. Tell us something about you: I've been playing since Open Beta, so I always like talking about/playing with old cards.
I agree. Altruis has a fundamentally strong effect, so to balance it out they need to either kill the card with even more nerfs, or rework the effect in some way (ie make it only to minions to incentivize a more control-y Demon Hunter.)

Got my 100th first place with Ragnaros today. Thanks Blizzard for updating Battlegrounds enough to keep me interested all this time :).

The same sentiment here. I remember my first legendary was a regular Archmage Antonidas.

Found (refound?) ^ video, and it just makes me think back to the simpler times in Hearthstone...
When getting Tirion Fordring as your first legendary was a BIG deal!

Oh yeah It would be so OP if it wasn't the case

You do realize Spellburst only triggers once, right? So it'll only return one Lightning Bolt to your hand, and then it'll stop.

Bruh, my thinking exactly.

I wonder if they're even gonna do the Arena rotations anymore. After all, Arena is just Standard right now.

Megasuar and Bagurugle aren't the problem. Mackerel is. Plain and simple.

That card is so good it made for one of Firebat's funniest videos recently.

If it only hit face though it would be dog shit at its current statline.
