The way they say it you could almost think that Dr. Boom is Exodia.
Exodia is a 5 piece combo which would be easily countered by aggro decks and mill decks for example. It's just a regular OTK card, like the Savage roar, FoN, except that instead of 2, are 5 cards. At least you can play arround exodia, which is not quite the truth for Dr. Boom.
Except that it counters hard removal, minion damage removal, spell damage removal, AoE and silence at the same time. That while synergizing with basically any playstyle, getting the mech race bonuses, and no actual counters besides BGH (which actually gets countered by the boom bots). Most ridiculous card ever made, glad he's making his way out of 50% of the game modes.
The new expansion will come up at the same patch they start the standard mode, lets wait to see what will they do about it before sharpening our pitchforks.
He will still be essential to the wild mode, and imo it's more likely to get nerfed now, since wild will be kinda broken and people will stop crafting him (one of the reasons they said he wasn't going to get nerfed).
To make this clear for everyone: "Wild" will become the new casual mode and will evolve to full-retard-trololol-mode over time:
- Let's be honest: A lot of ppl play HS also for Epeen (me included). If standard is being propagated in official tournament and your profile shows only your standard rank, it is THE (ONLY) way to play the game.
- Cards are going to be developed, balanced and revisioned with STANDARD mode in mind. They might (and at a certain point in time: WILL) be completely broken, if used with cards from older/banned expansions. While Wild might be also fun right after standard format starts, it will become utter BS after 2 additional expansions, in which no designer kept cards like Boom and Shredder in mind anymore.
So instead of treating HS as the digital game it is and keep it fresh with constant balance patches and revisions, they decided to go for full cash grab and going to treat it like a PHYSICAL CARD GAME, which it is OBVIOUSLY NOT. When we asked in the past for constant balance patches, they said: "NOOO! We can't do that! Players would be very sad, if their beloved cards in which they invested so much time and money, became worse!" And now THEY REMOVE THEM FROM THE FREAKIN GAME. And yeah, for me and a lot of other players, those cards will cease to exist. I haven't played a single match in casual mode for more than a year. So I will not play "Wild" in the future, esp. because it will be broken as sh1t.
This is even more infuriating, if you keep in mind that they released only 2 Adventures and 2 Expansions and already remove HALF of their additional content from the game,...
And guess what they will do? They'll sell us new Antique Healbots, new Sludge Belchers and at a certain point a new Dr. Boom. Esp. cards like Healbot are irreplaceable and HAVE to exist. So they'll just rerelease 'em with a new picture and a new name. And you have to buy new packs and more packs and more packs,...
Oh boy,...
They might be moving healbot and his friends to the classic collection in order to make this work. The announcement mentions something like that IIRC.
Nope, If you wait he will hunt you down. I'd play ghouln on turn 2, he'd probably sacrifice the knife juggler and then play the muster. Then I'd coin the frostbite and hit face, and on t4 I'd play dread corsair for free (in order to not getting him killed by the small guys), kill anything he puts on board and then the wirlwind effect would kill all the small guys, avoid letting things in the board and never wait for him to act. Limit his actions and neutralize his board as soon as possible. on top of that I'd try to draw some cards from an accolyte, use battle rage or get another weapon ready.
Why Face Hunter, Face Shaman and Secret Paladin tend to use "well played" emote more often than other classes? Does this make them feel more skilled or something?
It's the way of saying "sorry for playing this deck" without saying "sorry"
