Completely missed the point of my comment ya dickheads. Reno is great when you build around him, Rogue Quest is great when you build around it, but To My Side! is just fine when you build around it, the normal power level. That's shite. Bad design.
You spergs can't seem to tell that To My Side! is completely carried by the rest of the good spells in the all-spell hunter. The deck would do just fine without this card thanks to great cards like Flanking Strike, Spellstone, and Rok'delar (a card which actually benefits from having no minions, rather than only just becoming playable).
And naturally, the Hearthpwn community doesn't know what the fuck it's talking about as none of these cards will become meta staples. :P
Hell, just look at The Darkness as proof. Everyone's using one!
Lemme tell you a cool story:
Had a match against Druid as Razakus Priest. It's gone like this:
Coin +Wild Growth into Jade Blossom into Nourish. Played Ultimate Infestation on 10. Played the Twig of the World Tree into Medivh, the Guardian + Ultimate Infestation soon after. That's how his game went. The perfect run. Can't get luckier than that.
My game? Pass for the fist, like, 3 turns.
Played the hero card on turn 8 (Killed, like, a single jade, and left a board full of smaller stuff).
Played Raza the Chained way later into the game.
Pretty sure my Kazakus potion was a total whiff.
Still won. You know why? Oh, I want to say that it's because I'm good at HS. But no. It's because Razakus Priest is broken.
Dragon Priest is vastly inferior. It may be a decent deck, but it's nowhere near the Razakus. That deck is just bullshit-strong.
Try playing against faster decks. Everyone knows that combo decks are strong against jade druid because jade druid takes some time to create a strong board. You are not proving anything.
In the last meta, with agro decks nerfed and weakened, yeah, Razakus priest was pretty good. And it could be quite good now too for the same reason. But in a faster metagame, it would be reaaaaally bad.
Let's wait and see. There is some good promises in agro now. Spell hunter can smorc quite nicely (XD) and agrodin is growing fast. We'll see.
@Sorenzor: Hrm, well, wait and see is precisely the point I'm making. This community takes jumping to conclusions into an art form. The most egregious example was without a doubt Reno Jackson. This was a card that....oh, about 70% or so of the community HATED because they couldn't fathom decks without duplicates. And what happened? That card spawned an entire sub-set.
That doesn't really happen with cards that suck. Same thing with Prince Keleseth.
This community doesn't get shit, simple as that. Half of the "top rated" cards will barely see play while many that were aggressively down voted will become meta or at least deck staples. I'm using The Darkness again as my example. This was a card that people didn't remotely give a shit about, yet in the first two hours after Kobolds' release, I carved through at least six Kabal-styled decks with practically zero effort thanks to it. And even then, it's just a bloody scary card - the second you play it, your opponent will start saving up removals for him. Hook line and sinker, right?
@sykomyke: As I said above, I found this guy to be an amazing psychological weapon. He's big, and your opponent can't do shit about him as long as he's dormant. The second you play him, more often than not they start to hoard any hard removal spells and try to over-establish a board presence - they basically play too many minions while not playing enough balancing spells. In one game, my opponent literally didn't do jack shit about my Tirion other than suiciding a bunch of minions against him because they were saving hard removals for the Darkness. By the time it actually came out he burned through all his minions. That was a particularly nice feeling, I admit. :)
You miss Nemsy art in the class part! It's a really stupid thing, but as you did put all alternate heros as a background in the class part, it somehow bother me that she's missing xD
Oh snap, we didn't have a bingo this time! Oops...

Lol, stamped "best card", quest rogue "worst quest", hunter quest the second best, lul.
It's always good to remember. Just how wrong people can be sometime. You never know what the meta will be.
A bit sad we're not seeing all the legendaries, nor do we have small tidbits with opinions, but this is still always fun.
So many cards above Psychic Screams. Call to Arms nowhere close to top 10. I can understand Aluneth, cause it gives no tempo and isn't good in control decks, so it's easy to misread it.
Also, Hooked Reaver, what are you doing that high? Then again, it's also one of Trump's top picks.
Skull of the Man'ari has turned out to be pretty decent if used right. I also like [card]Rin, the First Disciple[/card] as well.
I guess i'm just bias towards warlock, but I have had some success with both.
yeah, at first after I played this deck for a day. I fell it's kinda anti-synergy.
then I realize i play it wrong way
Skull of the Man'ari is a tempo rush tool (lose value)
while Rin, the First Disciple is a control killer.
You have to decide which way to go at your mulligan.
