Is there a minion heavy priest deck yet? Sick of this gimicky combo crap.

I'm thinking of using jungle panthers and stranglethorn tigers so there's always something alive to get buffed.

Procarbine has one~

EDIT: One day my Nozdormu and Onyxia will be viable in some deck or other.

Commiting to control warrior now before all cards are out... Dont do it!

eh i mean a lot of the legendaries needed will always be good (grom, tbk, cairne, etc...) and I don't expect next week to completely shake up the meta (this week was the biggest release IMO). Sure there are a few good cards, but I think they will just enhance current decks, not completely change the way the game is played.

I think it's relatively safe. Control Warrior will never actually be a bad deck because the shell is extremely resilient. It might fall out of favor from time to time, but as long as Legendaries/Value-Neutrals get printed, it will remain viable, because its strategy doesn't hinge on any one mechanic.

That is, until Blizzard prints an Armorbreaker card.

I'm not actually going to craft CW. Haven't even filled out my Miracle deck yet.

Saving my dust for some nebulous future.

Tempo Warrior is fun but not viable in this AoE heavy environment with Paladins and Priests running around everywhere. No T1 plays is killer, because everything it could possible want to play will die to its own AoE.

I've crafted no legendaries. I have the beast, rag, noz(which wins me games), the black knight

I have Gelbin from buying packs

I have loathbe, twins, maexnia, whatever else naxx gave us.

I threw them all in a priest deck and have wtf owned a mill Druid LOL

? All the cards that are going to be available through Naxx have already been previewed/published/leaked, so it's not like there are going to be major surprises in store.

Will the meta shift? Of course. But Control Warrior isn't going anywhere, at least not until you shred an extra 30 armor first.

This week's quarter was manageable compared to previous ones. Normal was a bit more demanding, I couldn't just rush through it with my regular decks and already had to build a bit of a counterdeck, but I got through heroic on the same night.

No comparison to last week, where I struggled on and off with Heroic Gothik for days.



also, I will say that the introduction of Haunted Creeper has made it that much harder for me to find my own posts in this thread.

>_>

Man, Grobbulus took me a bit to figure out, but the rest were super easy =/

I think the hardest heroics tend to be the least gimmicky. Like Gothik was pretty tough because the only gimmick you really had to deal with was the ghosts. You just had to play really, really well because of how he ramped.

Something Like Patchwerk is just "did i draw" my oozes for turn 2 or 4-6?

No, game was over by then.

And I didn't draw Rivendere.

Thinking back, I actually don't think I would've won against Gluth Heroic without mindvisioning his weapon turn one and ooze in starting hand.

I can't believe what I just saw...

A Priest Trump was playing against played Auchenai + Lightwell. Not just in the same deck but on the board together. His Lightwell killed his own Auchenai and he conceded. I laughed.

I didn't catch his strim today, is Trump's deck working out for him? Some changes seemed weird to me on paper, especially dropping a Nova.

I'm kinda bummed that Naxx ends next week. Was fun having weekly content. Hope they are on their way for the next expansion.

There is only one player whose decks you should copy and that's clearly Kolento.
 
Playing a silly weapon warrior in casual for a daily and I have to say, replacing Death's Bite with another weapon for a Whirl Wind in a pinch is amazing.

Am I missing something? There doesn't seem to be a way to buy individual wings.
You should be able to if you go into the solo adventure window in game. Each should have a buy option. Should is the key word here.
