Posted May 21, 2019 (Rise of Shadows)It isn't any more broken than other combos because it takes time to set up and you have to draw all the pieces etc. Also there are ways to counter combos. Time will tell though I may be wrong about this. I don't see it being a huge issue right now. The rest of the deck will have to be strong enough to survive. Also this combo will work with any other mech.

Posted May 21, 2019 (Rise of Shadows)Yes, you answered yourself. It's 2 cards and 5 mana. You can die starting turn 4, unless you kill every single mech for the entire game. How does this compare to mechathun or so? Thought about the 0/9 steambot? Well, better kill it turn 4!

Posted May 21, 2019 (Rise of Shadows)i mean it's possible that you draw these cards by turn 4, play the birb, turn 5 roll out the rest of the combo with a silence for 1 of those pesky taunts. Idk could be a problem.
Also, all you need is 1 mech in your entire deck to stick on board, and to be able to clear any current taunts. The combo is pretty bonkers

Posted May 21, 2019 (Rise of Shadows)This is insane. Even without coppertail. It's a two card combo, which instakills, if you leave a mech up. Taunts don't matter. Seems broken.

Posted May 21, 2019 (Rise of Shadows)The cost reduction to Extra Arms makes it a pretty good card actually. But priest needed a bigger buff to make them viable in standard again.
