What an entitled manchild. What, having a better dust payout over time is not worth losing your rank? You do know there will be a rank floor set so that experienced players won't clog the bottom ranks, right? And the payouts are a lot more generous than they have been.

Grow the fuck up.

After looking at the reveals for the rest of the Primes, I can safely say I can stand by my previous assessment that this card is absolute weaksauce.

Um, dumb question. What if Emperor Thaurissian is on the board as well? Does his end of turn trigger override Ysiel's general ability and can make the spells cost zero instead? If this is true, this is not going to be a fun card to play against.

 That can't happen. Ysiel isn't a battlecry, it is a constant effect, meaning that if Thaurissan discounts it to zero it then goes up to (1) again, for the same reason that if you kill Ysiel the spells return to their "right" costs.

Just letting you guys know right now, yup, this card is going to be strong in Wild.

Rule number one of card games, if the card breaks the rules, the card always wins.

According to what is mentioned in the Strategy section of Thaurissan, if Aviana is played while he is on the board, Thaurissan's end of turn trigger ability overrides Aviana's static ability, so since Ysiel functions similar to Aviana, that means that Thaurissan's end of turn trigger overrides Ysiel's.

Translation: You see the two of these on the board at the same time, kill Ysiel immediately, because Malygos is not going to be far behind...

For the people that are complaining about this card breaking Wild:

More than likely it's going to be nerfed to resemble The Soularium (instead of drawing three cards, this will get you three random spells). That, or the Quest requirement of Open the Waygate gets bumped up like how The Caverns Below got hit at least twice (calling it now, methinks the requirement gets bumped up to 10 spells). Blizzard has been consistent with how they have nerfed problem cards in Wild (Star Aligner/Togwaggle Druid, Giantlock, Kingsbane Mill Druid, et cetera) and this card is going to be the straw that broke the camel's back. And I know that Open the Waygate is not a popular card in Wild right now.

 My advice: Hold on to Open the Waygate, and hope that you open this or get this in Gold, because one of these is going to be hit with the nerf stick.

Apparently someone needs to remind him of the SM0rc tactics Hunter has.

Nope. Look at the other Demon Hunter cards, they have a darker shade of green than the Hunter, and the design of the frames of the cards are wildly different.

And almost no one bats an eye that the Hunter's Prime is less than 5 mana, and that this is automatically going to be added to the pool of Zombeasts for Deathstalker Rexxar.

Stealth dont work that way tho, you cant really target a stealthed minion with anything so owl and poly wont work.

Also im prety sure that 'the lurker below' combined with the shaman battlecry hp wil just do 3 damage to a minion twice and from then on just deal 3 damage.

Anything else you said still holds true

The Lurker Below doesn't have to target the Rogue's Prime itself. The Lurker Below cares about board positioning, so basically, if you make it go from either the far left or the far right, as long as a minion dies, the damage keeps hitting adjacent minions. And one of the weaknesses Rogue has is that this minions they have are going to be wiped out by just about every 3 damage board clear. Sure, you have cards like Underbelly Fence, EVIL Miscreant and Togwaggle that could survive The Lurker Below's effect, but one of Shaman's strengths is that they summon swarms of minions to negate that. If I am correct, The Lurker Below repeats the Battlecry every time it kills a minion.

Owl's going to be teched in to deal with the non-prime version of the Primes - this thing only gets value if the Rogue deliberately kills it. Meaning it has to burn an Eviscerate or Backstab that could have been used to take out another minion, or deliberately sit on it and wait to trade into a stronger minion. You're trying to deliberately kill the non-Prime version of the card for potential value later, otherwise it's a fancier version of Spider Tank. The other Primes revealed so far are a lot stronger because A) they have IMMEDIATE value when they are played, B) the way they change the game immediately makes this Prime's Permanent Stealth look pathetic by comparison, and C) Permanent Stealth is pretty weak when you have board clears and certain strategies exist to get around the Permanent Stealth.

Don't be fooled by the Permanent Stealth, this card is absolute weaksauce. Since people know that this card is going to crap a minion that is permanently Stealthed when it dies, Akarma is going to be prime Owl/Polymorph bait. Not to mention that board clears will have no issue dealing with this, Priest Galakrond can nuke it with it's Battlecry, and Rotnest Drake/Deadly Shot can easily take it out if it's the only minion on your board. The Lurker Below (which was revealed a short while ago) can take this out easily if you don't pay attention to board placement if it's boosted by Corrupt the Waters. 

You have to jump through hoops to make this card work for you. I have not been this unimpressed since Uther of the Ebon Blade (without equal the worst Death Knight in the game), and this looks to be the weakest of the Primes.

Let's review:

Warrior's Prime comes back as a 10/10 with Rush that gives you 10 Armor when it kills a minion.

Druid's Prime can either come back as a 9/9  with Rush, or it summons another 9/9 with Taunt.

Shaman's Prime comes back as a 5/4 that draws 3 spells from your deck with a 3-mana discount on each of them.

Mage's Prime comes back as a 7/7 that's essentially a mini-Yogg Saron with almost no drawback.

What does Rogue's Prime get?

Permanent Stealth?

That's it?!?!

Nope, they said that the reveals would be starting at March 17th. With pretty much the entire world staying at home at this point in time, I sincerely doubt they are being delayed by the coronavirus.

Not to mention that the game companies are making sure that there is some sort of enjoyment while we're stuck at home, because I want to at least find something to enjoy and not have to be stuck with nothing but news websites. There's more than likely a metric fuckton of disinfectant, soap and shit like that at their offices. Not to mention they can probably work from home if need be.

Surprised that no one has figured out to use Patches in this Brawl. 7 weenies on your first turn versus Pogos... 

Edit: Apparently it's Standard? BOOOOOO!

Any minion hit with Frostmourne MUST be killed by it to get the minions summoned on your side.

No need to HoF Brawl, but it should be nerfed to 7 mana.

 Then Warrior has absolutely no answer to aggro. I like how well thought out that was, Mr. Murloc Shaman.
