Ancient of Blossoms. 6 mana Fen Creeper levels of bad. Ew.

Public Defender is interesting.

They really want Taunt warrior to happen somehow.

And that neutral taunt is just awful.

just need a nzoth equivalent for taunts and we're good

 

[wiibomb]

this is only good for the lots of cards buffing it..

May be better than playing Mogu'shan Warden

We're discussing the stream in the Hearthstone GAF chat on Twitch. Post your Twitch username and I can invite you.

gimme that invite.. bombwii

 

[Kornflayx]

Freezing Potion? Shatter meta incoming lol

 

[RumblingRosco]

Yeah, because nothing bad ever happens when you create 0-mana spells.

 

[CoolOff]

That freezing potion! ARENA BALANCE.

 

[bjaelke]

 

[BlackBuzzard]

Yeah remember 0mana soul fire. Like why do you do this blizz you just made freeze mage even more annoying.

 

[slightconfuse]

Finally some shatter synergy

 

[Ladekabel]

"Flamewaker being ridiculous prohibits us from creating cheap spell" - said noone in the Hearthstone-Team ever

[BananasWithGuns]

Pretty good aggro card.

 

[Papercuts]

That looks like a solid silence actually.

 

[patchday]

card 1: mill card too
card 2: zoth hate card / sylvannas hate / Madam panda hate

 

[bjaelke]

 

[patchday]

^ Freeze mage luv

 

[bangbang i'm a timpani]

defias is a shitty card lol

 

[wiibomb]

holy shit... 3 damage to 3 characters

 

[ZealousD]

You don't play Cyromancer in Freeze Mage. It doesn't do what Freeze Mage wants to do.

 

[georly]

that missiles card seems not good. at all.

Wonder how spell damage buffs it? (1 per missile? 1 extra missile?) I guess it's 1 per missile since the word 'three' is spelled out an doesn't use a number.

That + malygos = 3 ragnaros shots, basically.

Thanks!

I know one deck runs valet but anyways back to the vid

 

[Professor Lich]

It's the same damage total either way, but getting more missiles would be better(I think?).

 

[gutshot]

I like that the Jade Golem stats update on the card text.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

I didn't know Yogg Mage was still around. Lost my win streak because of it.

To be fair I should've ended the game earlier but got really bad draws and then had to play around Flamestrike and all his removal.

Yogg gives him Dart Trap and Vaporize, Healing Wave (hits my minion), and then Shadowstep.

I build my board back up but lose my Thing From Below to Vaporize.

Next turn he clears my board, Polymorphs his Yogg into a boar and gives himself Heroic Strike for lethal.

 

[georly]

obviously it's same damage total, but more missiles = clears more minions, more damage = clears bigger minions/does more face damage. Different uses depending on how it works. Like, you'd hate to use it on 3 1 health minions if you're buffing it with malygos.

 

[Kornflayx]

It will increase the damage of the missiles since that's the damage text

 

[ZealousD]

I missed it. Did Fight Promoter draw cards off itself?

 

[bjaelke]

I missed it. Did Fight Promoter draw cards off itself?

Yup

 

[Professor Lich]

Oh yeah, it explicitly says three missiles on the card, whoops.

 

[ZealousD]

Yup

Okay, that changes my initial evaluation, then. It might actually be decent in a Grimy Goons deck.

 

[BananasWithGuns]

Unfortunately have to miss the second half of the stream but I was fairly impressed with the buff Warrior deck. Seems like it could be a solid deck after a lot of refinement.

 

[thekillermuffin]

I don't know the viability of these in a real environment, but man, all these decks look like a BLAST to play.

 

[bjaelke]

So that's why we've seen so many board clears this expansion.

 

[CraigerGamer]

So that's why we've seen so many board clears this expansion.

yes. things seem to build pretty quick.

 

[ZealousD]

So that's why we've seen so many board clears this expansion.

And none of them can handle this ridiculousness of getting to double digit jade golems.

 

[Htown]

turns out jade golems are alright

 

[butts]

Jade Golems look like they are gonna be pretty unfun to play against.

 

[bjaelke]

 

[manhack]

As expected Jade Druid deck destroys anything like a control style deck. Although if he had equality + consecration he would of been OK. He also dropped his pyromancer early game for tempo.

 

[thepotatoman]

Blastcrystal seems fine for renolock. Just need to mostly save it for turn 10.

He'd only be ok with equality conc because Frodan was overplaying his hand for the stream. In a real game that equality conc would be met with 2-3 more huge jade golems next term.

 

[georly]

4 mana asassinate, overload: 1 each turn until you have 10 mana.

 

[CoolOff]

Chat was calling dust for Blastcrystal, but if you play it turn 8+ you suddenly doubled your amount of hard removal in Renolock.

 

[RumblingRosco]

I have a bad feeling about Jade Golems. Seem scary strong.

 

[Magnus]

Lol. Freezing then killing the minion

 

[Papercuts]

Wow, the ordering going like that fucking sucks.

 

[Ladekabel]

Killing a minion and then freezing it. LoL
