So, remember how everyone hates Priest? Well, get used to Warlock getting all the hate. Because I suspect all the control players that played Priest in order to play control are going to port themselves over to Warlock.
Nerf Jaraxxas threads will become almost as popular as nerf Tickatus threads.
So, in a way, Priest IS getting some love this expansion.
As a guy who pretty much despised priest since rise of shadows came out, I must admit that i'm starting to get a good feeling about the class again ;)
i feel like the overall opinion over the card being "meh" is kinda correct. I mean not like this card bad. Is good. But if you compare it with the other legos (like literally any other lego this expansion) this actually seems pretty underpower.
It's a weirdly... fair legendary. It's not flashy, and it's not gonna win you a match, but it's just such a solid 2 drop and probably best in slot that it'll probably see play in a lot of decks.
Not gonna lie, you`re right. As a priest control player in wild, i`m more and more incliened to try warlock "destroy oponents deck" shenanigans, even though i always hated playing warlock.
My problem is that there is a direct comparation with other legos and i find this girl being the weaker of the group:
- Guff Rune totem. I belive you only need play 2 cards to make it stronger than this card because get +4/+4 on a friendly minion and his body is really enough.
- Scabb CutterButter. When is not about stats is about mana reduction which is "similar" because is board value (sometimes), Scabbs at worse lets you play two 3 mana minions for free on turn 3. Which is a huge tempo impact.
- Rokara. You need a board to use her so its not stricly better than this girl but i find them even.
- Blackthorn. Also its more about mana than buff but it works for me because he summons minions. And its a 7 mana put a lot of mana on the board (best case 15 mana worse case maybe 9 mana, depends on the deck). That is a lot of stats for free.
- Tavish. Similar to Rokara he needs minions on board and is tribal but he gets more stats per attack that rokara for sure.
So yeah sure this one is the weaker alongside Rokara of the group of "stat on board matters" legos. In my opinion. This only give you a good amount of stats if your opponent has a lot of stats on a single minion already. Which is good but the effect is very fair like is not "until you make it a 1/1" its until you get more than the enemy minion which is tricky in some cases but in general you are getting a +1/+1 over the strongest minion.
Pretty neat 2 mana tool against any minion that doesn't mess you up with activated abilities. For the win-con topic, I think once you've given priest some good tools to actually survive until turn 8, you'll find that there are plenty of powerful cards to win with
I'd say the power of this card comes in its mana cost. You might be better to play this in the later game to allow a good value trade with one of your existing minions. And then you have at least two things on board.
It's not mind blowing, but it seems like a good card.
Shadowform came back for this. LUL
priest get's no win con and rogue gets broken stuff again LUL.
I don’t even know how to start. Why not deleting this class Blizzard? Are you f*****g kidding me? So every class has at least one strong legendary that indicates a certain direction/strategy and Priest gets an AOE card and a “let’s split your stats - i get half, you get the other half”???? I’m so f-ing pissed as player that loves this class. What is our win condition fir the next year? Stall the f*** out of everyone’s time until opponent maaaaybe conceeds?? No wonder everybody hates Priest. But honestly?! At least every f-ing 2-3 years gives us something decent. Instead you gave Rogue for example another insane legendary. As if this class wasn’t already one of your facourite. Pfff .. it makes me seek.
we are the kings of wild brother , whenever i feel sad about priest in std , i remember ive got tier 1 deck in wild , feels better and relaxing in few seconds . HHAAHAHAHAAHHAHHAHA . Hope atleast will be 1 playable deck in standard for priest
nah that's dark glare
Its kind of fine but... this looks more like a paladin card? We priest lose so much late game cards and then we get this? I mean its ok but does not help anyone out especally when no one plays big minions these days.
But aggro player never had a juicy stat minion, my friend.. they just go wide with small or moderate minion. Makes this card only steal 2 attack most of the time.
The only good target against aggro deck is probably flesh giant.
So this card will be played mostly in late game scenario..
Eh, it scales as the game goes on. But it's totally playable on anything with 3/3 or more I'd say. Just because of how the siphoning of stats works.
People think that this cards should do something insane like they are talking about Xyrella doing 10000 damage to the board when you actually only need 3.
Let's say the aggro guy plays a 2/3(pretty common), you use Serena and you get a 2 mana 2/3 that transforms the enemy minion into a 1/1. If it's a 3/4, you get a 2 mana 3/3 that transforms the enemy minion into a 1/2. What other card in this game sh*ts on an enemy minion for over-premium stats? You do something like this and this alone might win you the game against aggro.
And the best part? It's not a dead card against late game-oriented decks, like it's Breath of the infinite that is great against aggro but bad against everything else. And this is 2 mana!
Should I remember people about Cabal Acolyte? Wrecking the board and getting stats as gift was always great.
How exactly does this work? Does it steal both attack and HP each time until both are greater? (e.g. Would this always result in even stats?) If so, it would raise the question of whether the health lowering would stop at 1 HP.
so this underpowered crap is what we ger after Murozond, Mindflayer & Lazul rotation ?
Thoughtsteal rotates as well, so ALL control tools are gone.
Warlock is laughing when i play this on his 6 mana 8/8 Tickatus.
Huuuu his tickatus became a 4/4 and my dude became a 5/5 Vanilla...SO SCARY !!
Warlock instaconcede
Good thing ur comparing a 1 drop with a 2 drop. ahead on board u'd said ^^"?
