It's a conditional better card than Swipe. Fire Breather only deals 2 damage. You swap a body for 4 direct damage - potential 6 on a single target.

It's not necessary, there was just yesterday a post on reddit of a guy who reached top 200 with a f2p account, but there is absolutely no denying that it's a tremendous advantage when it comes to climbing.

Effectively it's wild with the arena rotation on top.

Not sure what is so exciting about that tbh. You need an absolutely bonkers filled collection to even have remotely fun and variation.

She loses to White King's chess pieces. She doesn't have too many beefy minions to survive that in the long run.

I think it's bad, but not the worst. I feel like Brann+Megasaur+Murlocs was still much more annoying, because once someone had that comp you basically just had to concede. 

I agree with a lot of the statements in this thread, too many heroes are trash tier and Elementals are probably too powerful.

Honestly though, I think my bigger issue is with the new ranking system. I'm only at 4k MMR, but every game I get +300 rank, whether I'm 1st or 4th. Maybe this will change as I continue to climb, but wtf? That totally ruins the feeling dueling it out to try and get 1st place. 

Lastly - does anyone else have issues with the Elemental buff animations? They seem craaaazy long. Wondering if this is on purpose so that you can't absolutely run away with the game, but for a tribe that wants to play lots of minions per turn, it's really annoying.

Once your hidden MMR and visual ranking overlap, you will get the normal 100 Points for 1st place. They done this so you'll climb faster (like in constructed) so you reach the place where you actually belong faster Your hidden MMR is still affected by your placement, so 1st or 4th or 8th still has an impact. Until your MMR and ranking overlaps, it's just not as visually. Blizzard said it'll take around 60 games for that to happen, if you were decently placed prior to the reset.

Still, very, very disappointed that nothing is done about damage and way too fast games. 3 times I got 6-7th place in a row due to facing early-mama bear bullshit. Don't they fucking play their own game? It's super dumb.

No Lich King nerf? Micro Mummy is probably an indirect buff to LK, even.

 Since it already has reborn, LK's HP does nothing to it. So that's one less target for him. So a slight nerf.

 I feel like it's a pretty easy fix, just give all patchwork HP...see how things go with 50hp, rather than 40. Doesn't sound like much I know, but I think it would be all it needed.

 I feel 10 HP isn't enough on average. Maybe keep 40HP and introduce a 15 damage cap. This way you don't have this "lose once and you are dead 27 high-roll mama bear bullshit".

Man the longer I play this patch the more I realize that the skill impact on your placement has drastically reduced with how short the games are due to the damage you receive. If they don't change something very, very soon I fear for the mode itself. I'll probably stop playing soon until a new patch hit.

In the previous patch you needed strategy and luck to place high, in this patch you need almost only luck to make it beyond turn 9 to begin with. Super, super dumb.
