Haha.

Do we have a Discord channel guys?

I don't think so, but I've been hanging out at the HS subreddit's discord channel and I wouldn't mind if we did. Discord's really neat.

 

[LyleLanley]

I haven't seen priests or patron in a while so I'm not playing keeper or equality. This has more consistent draws/damage. one equality helps against priest and patron. They are like the worst match ups, I'm just not bothering with those. Currently rank 3 NA with this.

I've been messing around with this deck and it's been surprisingly effective so far. It also doesn't feel like I'm winning through some cheap exploit or something so that's a positive.

When you're running Divine Favor you're winning with some cheap exploit.

I have made a channel in Discord. Quote to reveal.



You could add it to OP.

 

[Zemm]

The standard of play in this tournament is so bad

 

[Pachimari]

I got my first win and he rage quit. At least my record is now W1 L4.

 

[LyleLanley]

Ugh, Reno Jackson and then Echo of Medivh followed by Ice Block. I hate this game so much.

 

[Zemm]

Never punished ffs

That was a mad game though

 

[Portugeezer]

Crazy Paladin vs Mage match.

Those top decks and RNG...

 

[Pachimari]

There's a stream to the new card announcements?

 

[JesseZao]

There's a stream to the new card announcements?

Supposed to be anounced during the EU tournament stream.

Discord is pretty legit, joined but it's a bit lonely

Oh yeah, I only just started up the channel 30 minutes ago. We just need people to join.

 

[Portugeezer]

new druid card?

nerf announcement coming maybe?

 

[Pooya]

They are asking which part people like more to nerf just that.

 

[Tacitus_]

so clone your rag, sylvanas etc

 

[Kawl_USC]

So Priest Legendary. What cards is that good with for priest to summon 1/1 copies of other minions on board?

 

[gutshot]

More Bran shenanigans possible. Can't wait to see someone making 2 1/1 Velens and Mind Blasting for 40.

 

[Pooya]

It doesn't look good for priest.

copy Cairne, Sylvanas and things like that. Maybe you play Curator after all.

 

[Kawl_USC]

Yea, seems like its good mostly with neutral cards versus any priest specifics (I guess Paltress for double random legendaries.)

 

[Pooya]

Casters coming up with all these examples to use these with... none of them in standard. lol

 

[Portugeezer]

Would be good for Battlecry Shaman.

Thing is, it's a 6 mana card so copying Sylvanas and stuff is not too easy.

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Seems too unrealiable/too hard to set up to me.

 

[Pooya]

another card:

nerfed sludge belcher.

 

[Kawl_USC]

I think this card would be much better at something cheaper/smaller body. 6 mana seems too much to set up nice combos. So depends on having board control with minions that have an impact already, so a win more card?

 

[ViviOggi]

Looks decent but it's not really what Priest needs, win more cards like this are tough to set up with current lists. Decent statline for the effect though

Spoiler

meanwhile MC is 6/6

Struggle Belcher a shit

 

[Apathy]

another card:

Taunt, Deathrattle: summons a 2/2 slime

sludge belcher.

This is better than the priest one. Also funny, again, we keep getting replacements for important cards

 

[MonorailCat]

another card:

Taunt, Deathrattle: summons a 2/2 slime

sludge belcher.

Seems considerably weaker than sludge belcher.
A 2/3 for 4 Mana? Belcher was 1 Mana more and +2/+2.
Don't think this will be played much.

 

[FormallyFamicom]

I dunno man, if I wanted a copy of something I'd just use Faceless? A 5/5 body for 6 mana is nothing special, and while this card can copy multiple minions, it seems super unlikely that you'll have more than one minion with a desirable effect on the board worth copying.

 

[BananasWithGuns]

The slime doesn't have taunt, so not really comparable to Belcher.

It actually seems more in line with what Piloted Shredder SHOULD have been.

 

[Dahbomb]

another card:

Taunt, Deathrattle: summons a 2/2 slime

nerfed sludge belcher.

4/5 worth of stat for two taunts, pretty solid even if it's a nerfed Belcher.

Main issue is that it's 2 attack which makes it a prime target for Cabal.

Also 4 slot is really crowded which could be problematic for it.

Edit: Wait slime doesn't have taunt? Then this card isn't that good.

 

[Pooya]

I would rather play Senjin. huge difference between 3 and 2 attack.

 

[Dahbomb]

This is basically a much weaker Shredder when you think about it.

 

[veryslowhand]

if the slime dosent have taunt I dont see that being play

 

[Portugeezer]

A 2/3 for 4 Mana? Belcher was 1 Mana more and +2/+2.

This is much more reasonable than Belcher, and people will still run it.

Belcher value was too high with 7 health split among deathrattle minion, which made it very hard to actually deal 7 damage, so it usually ended up soaking more than 7 damage.

Edit: Oh, slime doesn't have taunt? That would change things a lot. More like a nerfed Shredder for sure, somewhat comparable to Defender of Argus in a way too. Either way, it is still a sticky minion.

 

[rando14]

Not too big a fan of Budget Belcher, probly rather run Tazdingo in the 4 slot

 

[inky]

Does the slime have taunt?

 

[Apathy]

So with the priest legendary, the summoned 1/1 won't be able to act that turn they are summoned I assume. Therefore they can be extremely succeptible to aoe the turn after they get summoned. As such, deathrattles would probably be best to copy, followed by taunts just to get a second line of defence even if it's weak. The thing is, a huge section of deathrattles are being taken out of standard.

 

[Pooya]

The slime doesn't have taunt.

 

[Dahbomb]

I just saw that Priest Legendary..

Now that's a Legendary. It's a good thing Priest can't cheat their way into playing big minions otherwise we would see some crazy shenanigans with Velens, Malygos and that card.

Yup, gonna be fun in Wild though. 1/1 nerubian eggs that can attack on their own.

 

[Mobius and pet octopus]

I think it's comparable to shredder more than belcher. Imagine a more or less balanced shredder with a different stat priority.

There's also inspire minions synergy on turn 8 imagine double Paletress, double Saraad, etc.

End of turn effects will be good as well. Stuff like Ragnaros and Thaurissan, although Priest doesn't really run either.

 

[MonorailCat]

Yes it's statted more reasonable than Sludge Belcher. Thats why it won't see constructed play. There is no room for "reasonable cards" in constructed. Only for broken cards.

Not in the new standard utopia!

 

[Pooya]

right, the card is like harvest golem with taunt and no mech tag for one more mana.... If you want taunt, there are better options. If you want a death rattle card, there are better option.

 

[gutshot]

Too bad that Legendary isn't a neutral. Dreadsteeds for days.

 

[Ladekabel]

so clone your rag, sylvanas etc

What is meant with other minions? Minions you have in play, in your hand or in your deck?

Minions on the board, presumably.
