If charge mechanics didn't exist aggressive decks and minion based combo decks would be almost non existent because their win condition becomes WAY, way more inconsistent.

 So, when Pirate Warrior or Aggro druid wins turn 4, it's thanks to Leeroy ?

 Pirate warrior is a strong tempo deck that has a lot of damage from hand in the form of weapons and spells like herioic strike, upgrade and mortal strike. A fiery war axe could be considered a 3 attack minion with charge - should weapons be removed too? Of course not. The charge minions seen in pirate warrior (leeroy jenkins, ko'kron elite and patches the pirate) aren't inherently broken in my opinion, they just seem unfair to play against in conjunction with other cards (southsea captain) and effects (weapons/buffs, from-hand damage).

None too familiar with aggro druid lists, but afaik they only run patches as their charge minion, right? It's not the fact that a 1/1 charge itself is broken; again, it's in conjunction with other effects that make it seem unfair to play against when he's buffed beyond the reach of early removal and steadily doing insane amounts of chip damage because of it.

Charge minions are only the most visible sign of a bigger problem with hearthstone's design. Go ahead and join your lynching party, but I guarantee, true to people's redditor nature, it'll be something else come next week.

Not removed, but the charge mechanic should become Charged Devilsaur

Big Priest is kinda an autoplay deck, I'd play Cubelock knowing it requires a lot more skill/decisions

There's no really strategy, it's just pure RNG encounter, you need him not to mill your best cards (like treasures) and not get too lucky with Voidcaller & Bane of doom, Everytime he gets Mal'ganis or Doomguard off of those, I insta lose.

Since you're on a clock, the best strategy I found to beat him is... to get the treasure Wish which is completely overpowered.

" It's a 4 mana 3/3 on turn 4, terrible for Tempo by itself " 

how do you want me to agree with you when u are saying this. 

 

 What do you mean? On an empty board, it isn't good. Simple as that

Looks like a worse Murloc Tidehunter

No pack filler, but they did a legendary filler with this Shaman weapon aka "We need to give a weapon to Shaman but we have no idea what to do"

Actually, the day Blizzard bankrupts and Hearthstone ceases to exist, Hearthstone will still live through fan-made replica as it already exists nowadays. You can play Hearthstone without running the original game, you just do not have the animation side of the game but the cards will definitely still exists.

Yeah, if you don't play any 1-2-3 mana beasts, this card is insane. But then you lose turn 4.

Unpopular opinion: Witchwood is really crappy. In every expansion there were at least some cards that seems fun or competitive or somehow looking forward to play; but Witchwood is really completely disappointing. Even in TgT there were some interresting cards there, but Witchwood is the first expansion where i don't want to play any card from it. There's 0 interresting things about it.

what the fuck.   this card is sweet.  

i mean....this doesn't fit into spell hunter, doesn't fit into aggro hunter, so naturally it's complete trash.  also you're dead on turn 4 to murloc paladin anyways so this might as well cost 50 mana.

"Do you guys are enjoying this meta"

Cmon lol

No, I definitely don't think that charge should be removed. I think there are a few minions that should have the text: can't attack heroes this turn, though.

Intro

After my first time ever investing money into this game by prepurchasing the last expansion, i felt nothing but disappointment. Here is why, please don't turn this thread into a "oh your saulty" nonsense, i am curious what other people think about what i am about to say, Thanks. So i started playing this game in the closed beta when my brother got me a key, i was super happy about it considering that i have played warcraft games since i  was 7 years old. And dont get me wrong, Hearthstone is an AMAZING game with great art work, animations, sound, and good game-play, i LOVED this game when it came out.

First time playing the game:

When i first started playing the game i was free to play player, i took priest because i liked priest, and soon discovered the Injured Blademaster and Auchenai Soulpriest + Circle of Healing combo, and i just had fun with it, without any guide's or anything i made it with my own deck to rank 12, and i was so happy about it. The next few expansions had their major problems of unbalanced cards that never got nerfed, and yea, that's bad. Looking at you Dr. Boom and a few others, but it never killed the fun for me. It is important to note that i was still a fully f2p player, and i always had enough card's because i was good in arena. So everything was fine. Not fine, better then fine, things were amazing, LoE, TGT and old gods were excellent expansions that i enjoyed so much. 

Downfall

And then it started,the down fall of hearthstone for me personally. Karazhan started the process of ruining arena fun for me. MSG was a horrible expansion that added jades and patches. but it was "OK" still. Hall of fame arrived, removing a lot of beloved cards from standard. so they removed around 4 of my most beloved card's from the standard pool of card's, they did that to make it easier for them to design card's later, it wasn't for us, it was just for them... So its year 2017, and Hall of fame happened, and i was okay with it at the time. So what happened in 2017?

2017, the year of the death of the f2p model.

Well, arena was boring and bad, and ladder was full of jades, patches and in general not fun decks. So i was waiting for the expansions of 2017, and o boy o boy there were 3, increasing the cost of the game BIGTIME, and not just that, but the geniuses at blizzard hq came up with a briliant idea, "HEY, said a greedy son of a bitch, lets make double the class legendary's and with that, seal the fate of the f2p players". Well, being a f2p player, it didn't float well with me. so 2017 was the year of classic cards being dumped to wild, and others just got nerfed and most importantly the cost of playing hearthstone sky rocketed. So i was put into the position where i HAD to give blizzard a METRIC SHIT TON OF MONEY, to gain access to card's I used to have by just playing arena alot. KFT came out and i was SOOO happy, i was waiting for the lich king to have his expansion since TGT, and then the expansion ended up being boring, uninspired and pricy, KnC once again sounded great, but ended up being boring, uninspired and pricy aswell, and the LEGENDARY weapons? ended up being garbage. After frozen throne i knew i HAD to buy packs in KnC if i wanted to catch up, and i did, and it felt like shit honestly. We have come to a point were the card design itself has become worse then ever, the game is just WORSE now, at least for me.

Final notes:

the hearthstone team is inactive, unresponsive, and not willing to do nerf's buff's or to add cards midway true. Leaving overpowered cards in the game. They treat us like idiots, saying extra deck slots would confuse us. Creativity in game design is horrible. (talking gameplay wise).  So yea, I am done with hearthstone now. Thank you hearthpwn for being an amazing source of hearthstone information for me for so long your awesome :).PS. Sorry for such a long post, never men't to write so much, but looking back, Hearthstone was a different experience up until old gods where it truly peaked at being amazing, down hill ever since. Those are my taught's, please let me know what you guys think.

O and i almost forgot, team 9 is RETARDEDLY bad at nerfing cards. and what they did to Fiery War Axe is a tragedy, honestly FUCK THEM for that. Fucking idiots dont know how to balance a card so they just toss it into a garbage bin. oke i am done now, bye. (excuse the salt at the end :))

Yeah, I think I'll definitely go for the "Unique" synergy pick with two copies of the same card in it!

garbage deck

Guys, please keep it polite! It is perfectly possible to try to prove somebody wrong without resorting to insults. We will all learn the truth when the the new metagame is shaping up...

have you realised that innervate is a bad card yet or are you still stuck in 2014?

 deathrattle: give your opponent 2 innervates, now all of you will realize how bad this card is.
