Amazing Yogg-Saron synergy!
Plays Snipe before Repentance. Snipe kills it, but then Repentance brings it back to 1 HP. THAT'S INCREDIBLE!

Is Nerubian Prophet worth running in Evolve Shaman
because it keeps getting evolved into garbage like rend blackhand

I just had the most BS win ever.
I have Ragnaros, Ram Wrangler, and something else on the board I can't remember.
My opponent plays his 16/16 C'Thun and kills everything but Ragnaros at 6 health, and I'm at 13.
I have no answer to C'Thun.
My turn rolls around, and I draw a Hunter's Mark.
I play Tomb Spider, and low and behold there he is: Tundra Rhino.
I play Tundra Rhino and kill C'Thun with Tomb Spider.
Next turn, he plays the 5/7 taunt to stay alive.
Since Rhino is still on the board, I drop Savannah Highmane and a Toad, and kill the 5/7. I didn't even have to wait for Ragnaros to kill because the Highmane's hyenas got to go face and finish the match.
INCREDIBLE!
Up from rank 19 to rank 13 in an evening - feels good!

Run more. Taunt up a statue! Of course then you will have problems with something else.
You can't beat every deck with one deck and that is a very good thing. If people stopped playing doomhammer again, we would be closer to a one deck game.

King's Elekk has given me Ragnaros 4 matches in a row now.
I have come to have strong feelings for this card.

Rogue saps my turn 3 8/5 Hyena.
Yeah, that's cool man...
Yeah, that's cool man...
Back in 2 turns as another 8/5 Hyena!
I crafted some aggro shaman pieces finally, i like playing decks that are underrepresented in the meta so this should be fun.
Just need a win 5 quest now. I also couldn't allow the dust to go to any class legendaries yet, and i didn't want to craft a second eternal sentinel so i'm using the lava shock free up mana spell instead of a second.

It's like th eonly way to deal with aggro and freeze
Yes it's very good.

Amazing card, one of the best legendaries in the set. Top 5, I'd say.

Exactly, imagine being like "next turn I have the game unless he has forbidden healing" and then you have it and by the time they are ready to go for it again you have lay on hands and or Rag. Must be infuriating, freeze mages are so obvious when they want to go for it it's almost too easy.
amazing heals 8 immediately, with a cost efficient body and completely turns a game around if it sticks.
I've gotten really good at countering freeze mage now, specially when I got both in hand< i can use one when they do a first try burst, save the second one after using my truesilver's and they think they can alex me down
Light rag, you seem high on fire rag

It would have been cool if they triggered a joust or something whenever they targeted each other.

Does he still say "DIE, INSECT!"?
It would be amazing if he actually said "QUIT HITTING YOURSELF, INSECT!"

It's really good if you can get a good reduction on it, either for an early turn or when you've got a heavy mana overload. Coin+Totemic into Nerubian is basically game winning.

So is there any reason I should wait and not craft Twin Emps and Fandral? They seem like pretty slam dunk legendaries.
Not sure how future-proof Twin Emps are. If C'thun gets continued support in the next adventure and expansion (not likely, but possible) then they might be good to craft if you like C'thun lists. Otherwise....
I think Fandral is a decent craft if you like Druid. You can use him for two years and he synergizes with a lot of Choose One cards that Druid is famous for. He could end up being a dud, but I think he, like Herald, will only get better as we get more cards.
Just my two yen.
you get 8/4 with 4 mana or so and not happy?
lol
Prophet is your winning condition
twin emps requires c'thun & friends so do you like playing those :x

The deck is competent without him. Give it a roll.
Depends on how much you like Druid I guess as both are used in Druid the most.
I see Fandral more in Beast decks than in Cthun decks. I think he's kinda meh in Cthun decks but in Beast Druid it's really good (Power of the Wild, Wrath, all the Beast transformations, Living Roots).

I really like Fandral + Raven Idol. 5 mana for a 3/5 and drawing two cards. It's also not as terribly expensive as the other Fandral combos.

How is Fandral in Ramp? That's probably what I'd want to play most honestly.
Karsticles
Member
Ramp Beast, or Ramp C'Thun? I don't think Fandral and C'Thun work well together, so I wouldn't craft him AND Twin Emps unless you want two Druid decks.
BananasWithGuns

Just standard Ramp Druid. Lots of mana acceleration and big minions.
Nah, no special interaction or anything, lol.
Karsticles
Member
But there are two kinds of Ramp right now: Beast Ramp, and C'Thun Ramp. You need to decide which you want. If you haven't played either deck, do so without the associated legendaries to see which you like more.
Laaaame!

I wasn't aware there was such a thing as beast ramp. First I've heard of it I think.
Thanks, that actually looks pretty nice.
Kolento ran this deck last night. Seemed very consistent.
