Do people seriously get salty enough to make posts on this website because of a meme deck? If he's running marin and not lifedrinker then what are you complaining about? People who complain about "stupid" opponents who still win are worse than the people who do nothing but go on about how broken all the meta decks are.

In the last patch (11.2), Blizzard changed the order in which minions' card text affects the board and when a minion is played. In short, before the patch the minion Dire Wolf Alpha's text (adjacent minions get +1 attack) could buff a minion like Azure Drake to be 5 attack when it entered the battlefield, thus triggering Jungle Giants. After the patch the effects of minion card text on the board isn't counted until AFTER the minion that is being played has completed its battlecry and such. Hope that made sense!

But yeah, can confirm op is right, only a few days until the nerfs are graciously delivered to us.

While I'm happy that giants aren't going to be a problem in wild anymore, I agree with the sentiment that this change shouldn't be happening. I don't know why they insist on keeping the mana reduction to the point where it makes the giants cheap/free, it feels wrong. I like the idea of it enforcing that ALL cards cost 5 regardless of mana reduction text. It's so brainless and it ruins this card flavor-wise.

The second version seems more in line with the language Blizzard uses on its cards; I can't think of any time they specifically say 'in the battlefield', that's more of a magic the gathering term.

Overall though I like the design you have for a Monk hero, it's always really cool to see how people interpret the class into Hearthstone! I'm interested to see what kinds of new cards you could design, these seem really neat.

While I do think it's odd both Ben Brode and Hamilton Chu left, I wouldn't be too worrified for the future of the game. With as many people working on the game as there are, it's unlikely the team is facing a crisis. Higher ups leaving a company at the same time is not really unusual; it's likely that both Brode and Chu wanted to leave for a little while before now but chose to stay to see out the end of The Witchwood. I wouldn't be too worried about the direction the game is going, it's not like these two guys made up the entirety of the heart of the game, seems like people are making a mountain out of a molehill to me.

I just unpacked a golden copy of this in a free Un'Goro pack that I got from the Year of the Raven celebration. Gotta say, this card is a lot of fun to make gimmicky decks with! I've had a lot of fun in wild and standard with this card, and it's really fun to experiment with in aggro or control archetypes, it can fit either. Really a neat card that's just too underwhelming for standard.

I would prefer not bringing back Antique Healbot and Justicar Trueheart. The last thing we need is more power for control decks

PS: i also see my post got severly downvoted. Which is sad, for it means either that people can't read or that they are severely biased themselves...

I'd save him for later, wait until you know you want to make some other legendary from his dust, but otherwise I'd say elemental shaman is a fun deck, so maybe give him a try if you feel like having fun.

I usually stick with more practical names for my ladder decks, but I always makes my gimmicky ones as ridiculous as possible. My favorite name so far is "Thicc Bois Revelations", which is Jungle Giants ramp deck

There really isn't one, he's a solid taunt body on turn 5 with the promise of a 5 mana 10/10 taunt later on, with added synergy from N'Zoth the Corruptor

So this morning I was playing a Wild Ranked game, and the game was working just fine. There was some weird texture glitch in the corner of the battlefield but it didn't really seem to affect the game. After that first game, I attempted to join two other games on Wild Ranked and both caused the game to crash. Just to see if it was just a Wild problem, I switched to Standard and tried to play a game on Ranked there, and I got the same issue again!

Posting to see if anyone else is having this problem, or if it's just me. I've tried closing Battle.net and restarting my computer, but so far no luck. Would really appreciate any feedback, thank you.

I've gotten pretty tired of seeing Midrange Shaman and Tempo Mage on ladder, but honestly I've played enough of them that I feel like I can counter them pretty well no matter what deck I use. Anyfin paladin just feels bad to play against, I feel like there's so few ways to combat it that it just ends up controlling the board until Bluegill Warrior and Murloc Warleader die and it can bring them back. It's also annoying that unlike other combo OTK decks where they have one chance to finish the game, Anyfin paladin can do it twice.

Am I just being too salty? If nothing else at least Anyfin Can Happen is leaving Standard in a few months.

TOO SOON!
