It's because the Battlecry essentially "gives" the minion the text "Create an exact copy of this minion at the end of this turn". Brann triggering the Battlecry twice just means that it gets that text once and then it gets it again, overwriting the first time. The effects don't stack because it's the same effect.

Gotta throw that salt in the wound.
"i'm doing well, nothing can go wrong if i stay above 18 health here"
FoN with double savage. Sometimes i forget, even with one tick of Emperor, that people will have good hands because i always struggle even to get one combo set up if i don't keep it in hand during the mulligan.
Are druids supposed to keep combo pieces in their hand from the start and I've been playing druid wrong?

Was that me? I made a lock n load hunter in brawl last night and played a renolock. Never saw any other hunters except deathrattle ones.
Also, add me to the druid combo hate train.
EDIT: Oh yeah, some priest in not-arena played 4 Spawn of Shadows against me yesterday and I still haven't figured out how.
If you played against a Freeze Mage that went to fatigue and you won by getting Gladiator Longbow twice from Lock n Load then yeah that was me.
No if your playing midrange you should mulligan hard for ramp.

Up to rank 19, still trying to reach a rank in which people know not to just hit me in the face every single chance they get, I was trying to get my druid to level 10 by playing ranked with it and I was still winning.
I still have that free Arena run to play but for some reason I'm hesitant, I don't want to waste it.

It may be dull but I'd try to get classes to level 10 through the AI, since you're missing core cards before that point.
First thing I did
You're close to the point where you'll start losing, but it will be to people still hitting face just with better stuff. It seems like you understand the basics well enough, tbh I'd start watching streamers like Kripp, Hafu or ADWCTA, read some arena guides and jump straight into that. You're gonna hit a wall in either mode, but in constructed you're boned without a better collection while arena will a) actually give you results from improving your play and b) help you expand your collection.
You don't become an infinite arena player overnight, so you'll still find yourself in constructed (or brawl) doing dailies which you'll hopefully enjoy at least a bit, but getting good at arena asap is really worth it. Constructed is in a terrible spot right now and I don't even want to think about playing it as a cardless newcomer.

Divine Favor is so fucking stupid.
It's a card that punishes your opponent from playing conservative and slow while rewarding you for vomiting minions onto the board and making dogshit plays because who fucking cares, you just drew 7 cards for 3 mana!
It's like a reverse Blue Shell, except the Blue Shell is only given to last place, not the BEST IN THE GAME.

Divine Favor should definitely be reworked, broken as is

I'm not sure how they could even change Divine Favor.
Maybe something like, draw a card for every two cards in your opponent's hand?
I really have no idea. It definitely needs an adjustment though.

Funny, I always felt the same way about decks that used Alexstrasa. I would always do good trades, keep a good board, only to be blasted for ~15 damage on turn 9. Granted, if you know a deck is going to play Alexstrasa, the actual good play is to use face to trade(if possible).
Fucking delete it that's how, how that card exists boggles the mind

Give Divine Favour to Hunter, they need card draw.
We actually need more cards like these in the game ie. more reward for more minions the opponent has. It could be like a comeback mechanic for slower/control decks but still not promote fatigue playstyle because you are drawing a bunch of cards.

Last time hunters had insane card draw (Buzzard) it was nerfed into the ground.
Not really, for a very long time it wasn't even played at all.
Even now most Secret paladin deck play only 1 copy. The only other paladin deck that plays the card is aggro paladin, which is very dead right now.
The card was played as far back as the first Blizzcon where guys like Kripp farmed all the slow decks with Divine Favor Aggro Paladins.
The reason Divine Favor wasn't used as much back then is because aggro wasn't as punishing back then. People were using stuff like SSC and DID for their 3 and 4 drops. When Paladin got Minibot and Muster, that's what allowed them to really play aggro.

What, you don't like topdecking Hunter's Mark?
Camel was born to run with Injured Kvaldir.
I've been alternating between a Violet Teacher Druid and Renolock with Brann but no faceless/PO/arcane golem, got from rank 14 to 11 with some horrific matches and some easy Reno wins over warriors and priests ( sorry warriors and priests). I might switch back to Secret Paladin eventually and ride the curve god train as far as i can get.

Or how about change Starving Buzzard back to a semi useful card. Yes it was OP, but what they did to it was totally unnecessary.
Brofist

Well, the Starving Buzzard nerf wasn't about making a balanced card, it was about sending a message.
The message was: we have no idea what to do with it.
Now the Hunter's opponent has all the time he needs because the card is never played ¯_(ツ_/¯
All they really had to do was change the text on the card to keep Unleash from triggering it.
Just drafted a 6 fireball Mage deck in arena. Seems like it'll go terribly wrong somehow.

Anyone else thinks Reno and Finley are an attempt to weaken aggro decks?
Do you think it worked?
Do you think it worked?
I don't think it's necessarily meant to weaken instead of just being a new control tool(in reno anyway). I do think it hurt face hunter in particular a lot, though, as the deck taps out at a certain point and it can't make up for that swing.
Finley is a weirder case though he'll find his way into decks for awhile. For now I see him enable aggro more than anything else, most notably in aggro shaman but also sometimes in stuff like warrior to get something more proactive in finishing a match off.
But you don't understand how that would be too complex for a new player to understand /BenBrode
But in all honesty some of the 'nerfs' have been outright bans and Blizzard should just be upfront with it instead of some spouting some bullshit excuse telling their customers that one more of their cards will be added to the useless pile.
