Hearthstone

Give me one of those Yoggs!

 

Are you complaining about opening too many legendaries ? I'm about to lose my composure on your ass

 

I recently opened a golden N'Zoth but I already crafted it in gold. The game hates me.

 

fuck all of you

 

They need to nerf Malygos so I can get full DE value for my three extra copies.

 

Must have against control/fatigue. Against aggro, it's just a Pit Fighter that makes it harder to draw your removal. Will probably be good when the next Standard rotation happens.

Love how they've made the 2nd best Arena class much stronger with that stupid common Firelands Portal. Great stuff from Blizz there.

 

Apparently the shuffling of 5 legendaries happens every turn so if your opponent can't kill it, it keeps going. Although it follows the rules as far as class restriction and no duplicate legendaries.

 

It was a mistranslation, Malchezars trigger is at the start of the GAME (source: here).
That's pretty mediocre. I'd rather just draw the cards I put in my deck. Chances are these extra legendaries will hinder you more than help you to defend the inevitable aggro onslaught.

 

I think maybe Brode was drunk because that makes no fucking sense. So just for including the card in your deck you get five extra cards? Who wouldn't use this other than an aggro deck? What am I missing? 'Hindering' your potential to draw your cards has to be outweighed by having five extra cards no matter how mediocre.

Oh, and fun times... Prince Malch is the prologue boss... wonder if this is a week 1 reward.

 

It's pretty bad because it dilutes your draws and the effect only matters if you actually go through your whole deck.
Just check the % of games that go to fatigue in todays Standard meta to see how often it will be beneficial.

It's the same psychological fallacy as with Fel Reaver. Milling cards does not matter when you still have cards in your deck. It's the same with additional cards. As long as you are not fatiguing, you are not profiting from five extra cards in your deck.

On the other hand, many games are already decided by turn 5 because of the opening draw (sometimes you know it's GG turn 1 when your opponent drops the Tunnel Trogg and you have no immediate answer). You need crisp openers to combat aggressive decks and random legendaries are not what is needed against Shaman, Zoo, Dragon Warrior and their ilk. Random legendaries will almost always be a worse draw than cards that you deliberately put into your deck because of their strenght / synergy effects.

Putting this card in your deck only makes sense as a Control / Fatigue deck that expects to play all its cards. When you include it, it will worsen your Aggro and Midrange matchups and improve your Control mirror matchups. Now do the math and see what you play the most on the ladder. If you are not playing about 60% control mirrors (it will not even be effective in every mirror), this card will make your deck perform worse overall. I doubt such a meta will happen soon.

It would actually be significantly better when the effect would take place when you PLAY it or at the start/end of turn, because you could draw your crucial opener unhindered and then access the additional cards when they matter (in the late game). Just like Golden Monkey can be turned on when the time is right.

 

Making it more difficult to draw what you need. Even 1 extra card does that. For arena, that doesn't matter as much, but your constructed deck typically depends on certain cards.

Rank 20 question

 

Minor boost to bane. No demolock though =/

 

Good for Renolock, pretty average/underwhelming otherwise. Unless the tokens do something special.

 

Wouldn't the prince card only really work in a control warrior deck? Seems like the randomness of whatever cards you get would just screw over most other deck types.

 

I'll be laughing when I pull my Millhouse Manastorm!

 

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you:

!!!NEW CARD!!! POMPOUS THESPIAN !!!NEW CARD!!!

WARNING: DO NOT OPEN IF YOU ARE FAINT OF HEART!

Will this finally push Bolster Warrior into T1 meta deck territory?

ALL HAIL BLIZZARD! ALL HAIL BEN BRODE!

 

What an interesting card to put in a 45 card adventure!

 

Crap like that belongs in an expansion as fodder not one of a 45 card set. I'm guessing they might have put it in because Priest still isn't going to get any good early game minions so that's their substitute.

 

Blizzard regarding the current state of Priest: "Is there a problem?"

Explains so much.

 

People just need to discover the Ben Brode Unicorn Priest.

 

That designer strawmanned a whole community.

 

So, apparently, all you have to do in this brawl is repeatedly push the end turn button until you lose... and then you win. Furthermore, all the quests, gold per game works anyway. I didn't try whether conceding also makes you win, but I wouldn't be surprised if it did. Great new design heights, Blizzard.

 

The gold per game works? Didn't seem like I was getting a message. That quests work is pretty hilarious, though.

 

Derp.
