I think Greenskin's ability is actually really important for the game because very few cards increase durability. It may seem like a pretty vanilla card but unless you're warrior its effect is unique. He's being used right now in kingsbane rogue

 I may be misunderstanding the article, but how exactly is paying $20 for a 30 card pack bundle considered a "quest" exactly?

Quote from Baalercyti >>

 it's pretty rare that a new set creates its own archetype

With jades rotating out of standard come april

I would suggest malygos druid in wild. Very nice and I think tier 1 now.

I know you're supposed to "beat the meta" to get to legend, but I'm at a blank at how to do it. I know it's just a mental thing, but I swear every time I change to try and beat the meta, the meta I'm coming up against changes to something different.

what you talking about......I am saying that if you played the secret, earlier in game, or when you have mana to do so.  then later they play a minion that summons a minion you take control of that minion that he summons. How is that getting the game mechanic wrong.

It looks like more of a control lock.

Without cube doomguards aren't super impactful, and dreadlord is a bad pull comparatively. I would cut all those cards, or add in cubes if you want to continue to run doomguard.

 You also don't have a way to kill lackeys on your own, so I would put in dark pact. If you just play it on an empty board your opponent can interact with it through something like silence.

So yah just decide whether you want to go for more control or more cubelock, and look at what other people are running in those decks to see if your collection fits to them.

I honestly don't see the advantage over Hydra since you can razormaw or houndmaster hydra for massive damage.

Quote from IambicAvenger >>

Maybe if you could stick Malygos to the board this would be an okay idea, but you're talking about spending 9 mana to deal 6 damage to face. For 5 mana less, Mage gets to do that and they aren't even stuck targeting the enemy hero. It's wildly inefficient - even if you had the spell power buffs from Maly, you'd still be better off with something like Sinister Strike or Eviscerate for direct damage.

Quote from SpoonfulOfPB >>

And you can just use silence / poly when they cube their doomguard...

They are killing it with 1 mana heal 8 spell. So there is no way interact with this combo. 

You realize this is a buff right? Because now they can get out demons on turn 5 rather than turn 6. Weapon destruction would be useless then. Control locks will just run Skull and no doomguard.

You're saying but then you can poly/silence etc, but you could also just use that turn to play ooze. Whats the difference?

Quote from captram77 >>

No you put up before like counter spell, can swing advantage to you if played at right time, or give your opponent a minion which benefits you.

Quote from captram77 >>

So my question is can you come up with the next secret to be released.

Here is mine "The next minion summoned switches side."

Good to combat barns, spiteful summoner decks, but can also be used for meme decks. 

What's your thoughts or ideas?

Quote from Kaladin >>

Druid - Was he running Prince Malchezaar?  And in Wild, maybe he equipped the Hunter weapon via Blingtron?

Warrior - Also could be running Malchezar, and I'm sure there's a way to discover other cards.

Wierd.. I could have sworn standard was:

Basic + Classic + Previous 2 years of expansions

Did they change the rotation parameters at some point?

**EDIT BELOW**

Ok.. apparently they did change the parameters at some point, I was sure I'd heard it explained how I wrote it above and so I looked it up:
Ben Brode explains Standard

Sure enough: "last 2 years of expansion + basic + classic"

"last 2 years of sets"

Nov. 2016 to April 2018 does NOT equal 2 years.

 

He means last 2 full years from when they do the rotation. We only have rotations at the first expansion of the year, in which only the last 2 full years of expansions are contained.

 ya... and there was a discrepancy between what he actually said (words out of his mouth) and what he *apparently* meant.
