Personally more afraid or the Batterhead for that deck in standard, gives priest ability to ressurect a semi board clear.
Let's all hope we don't get any more synergy for that deck.
I mean Rez cards are kinda annoying but what are they Rezzing? This card to rez Malygos Prophet Velen and... Darkmire Moonkin? And then you have one mana...so Holy Smite. And that deals a whopping...18 damage.
For some reason I'm okay with this.
1. Auchenai Soulpriest + Maly + Valen
2. Mass Resurrection
3. 2 x Regenerate + Holy Smite
46 dmg ;) ;) ;)
WHY? WHY BLIZZARD? F***ING WHY?
*cries in Wild*
it's because they designed this expansion some 18 months ago, as shown in that video where Hex was still at 3 mana.
Oh great more value for Big Priest Kappa
Well it seems pretty slow in standard if you rotate out Eternal Servitude and Shadow Essence
You probably wont be able to cheese the big minions early on anymore...
and 9 mana is a lot in a turn and Radiant Elemental is also rotating out
so the OTK will be hard to pull out unless The priest get some crazy cards in this expansion, which I don't believe will happen
Well, at the very least it keeps wall priest viable in standard. It’s more expensive than the spellstone but you aren’t punished for drawing it late.
I've read some comments about people saying that Priest class will be one of the bad guys in this expansion and so it shouldn't have such bright-themed cards.
Well, I see this cards is receiving a huge quantity of hate despite being revealed like 10 minutes ago , so I guess it perfectly covers its villain role Kappa
Resurrect priest will be more fair without shadow visisons allowing more copies of this card. There also won't be spirit lash to full heal with a maly/velen res. 9 Mana without radiant/shadow visions/gargoyle also means it isn't going to be an OTK combo, but just a board value and pass, which will give the opponent time to interact. 9 mana instead of 7 is actually a big deal in those situations where you would just drop it under pressure from aggro on curve even if you would only res two things.
I think this will be a lot more fair and balanced version of resurrect priest, which is a cool and flavorful style of priest.
I agree, though that is dependent on them not replacing the support that it's losing.
Well lets hope they don't also print a new Radiant Elemental
I'm a priest player (Quest and Control not Wall or OTK). I hate this card. People being worried about Wall and OTK need to remember Shadow Visions and Scream are going out. That is a huge loss.
I'm not concerned about Maly or velen combo. Still Wall priest remains since no big taunt is rotating out and they raplaced spellstone with this. The point here is that nothing fresh comes from playing Wall priest again for 4 months or more
Oakheart going as well. Visions going is the huge loss though, not drawing IF or DS is going to make the deck very inconsistent.
Surely this is just useless in Wild where Res Priest already has so many tools. Meanwhile in standard, Wall Priest might rear its ugly head yet again, probably much weaker this time around.
Overall I'm actually hopeful that the new standard wall priest remains just viable enough to be played, just not anywhere near as annoying as it is now.
I was very excited for this exp,but....wtf? we're getting the same card whit just different name? Cmon...90% of the custom cards are more interesting...
A weaker spellstone. Without radient Elemental and for 9 mana, it won't be as op as before. and you can't otk that easily.
I think it's ok.
I'm starting to regret i bought pre-order. Jepeto and now this.
I think decks running these cards for cancer combos will be less consistent. Hopefully they won't see play.
