Yeah, that would probably be too much 🙂

Actually, Warrior matchup is winnable.

Against Aggro, your goal is to just survive (obviously) and win the game like that.

Against Control, draw A LOT of cards while trying to put minion pressure all the time to waste some of their removals. Then on T10 drop Elysiana + Seance her. Pick the highest pressure cards from Elysiana. After you’re out of cards in your deck, repeat. Unless Warrior got an early Boom and got A LOT of value from it, you can actually run them out of removals etc. if you get right Discovers from Elysiana.

We are aware that the deck code is broken, we have some problems with Madame Lazul card. Here’s the correct deck code in case you’re looking for it: AAECAa0GCIoHkAfTCvLsAqCAA+ubA4adA9qdAwv7AeUE0gryDKH+ApeHA+aIA+uIA4KUA42XA5ibAwA=

Don’t think so, it’s just for the sake of replayability.

I believe that you only need to unlock them, not finish them.

Not 100% sure, but it would make most sense.

The card has potential, I would not disenchant it. It has seen a bit of play already and it can be a part of some combos in the future.

Thanks, I didn’t actually play the Brawl yet, so I missed it. Adding it to the post now!

Soularium might be considered a combo piece, but it’s really awkward, because you likely won’t get to play the cards (unless you draw something that costs 1), so you discard all 3. Drawing “only” 3 as opposed to shuffling your entire hand (usually 5+) also means that the chance of getting one of the minions you want is much lower.

Yes, the dream is to follow it up with Coin + Plot Twist, but you need to go second, keep your Coin for that long (which is pretty difficult) and have all 3 cards.

I also would not Dust any of the Rise of Shadows cards yet. Betrug has some potential. I honestly don’t think that it’s even going to be an amazing card, but anything can happen in Hearthstone.

I actually agree, but there’s a sort of circle you might not be thinking about.

She is now borderline playable, because the quality of Warlock cards is pretty low. But Control Warlock is not playable for exactly the same reason. If Warlock gets better support for Control archetype (especially more healing/removal – that’s important) and that becomes playable, wouldn’t that mean that Jeklik will no longer be good enough to include?

I’m not saying that it will 100% be a case, but for her to be playable (IMO), Warlock would need to get BOTH good Control cards and more Discard support, which is a tall order since we’re looking at only 2 more expansions of her in Standard.

List of the cards you can “safely” Disenchant was updated for Rise of Shadows. Comments below this one might be outdated.

And for God’s sake, please read the entire post carefully before leaving a comment. Any of your concerns are most likely already answered there. Replying to “uhhh, BUUUUT DISENCHANTING LEGENDARIES IS A BAD IDEA” for the 100th time is far from my favorite pastime.

He combos very well with both Weapons Project and Shield Block. Especially the latter. If you play him alongside Shield Block, he’s a 4 mana 2/6 that gains you 5 Armor and draws a card – that’s massive. With Weapons Project he gives you +6 Armor and +1 weapon charge (since you can attack immediately and then get it refreshed back to 3 anyway). And the thing is, unlike in Control Warrior, when you play Mecha’thun version, you always want to draw cards – even in Control mirrors.

It’s hard to say whether it’s the best list at the moment, but the fact that it was piloted by Fibonacci to #1 Legend speaks for itself.

True, they should be more specific about the release date, but I think that it’s a good thing that they put more attention to Fireside Gatherings. I know some people who play the game mostly for the social aspect and they love Gatherings – playing wonky decks with friends (or people they met) just to laugh about it right after is what they enjoy.

Can’t say that it’s the same for me, but since it’s not a huge effort and it can make a lot of players happier – why not 🙂

Yes, it does disappear from the board when you bounce it to your hand (that’s kind of the point of bouncing). But Control mirrors are only a part of the ladder, relatively small compared to all the Tempo Rogues, Conjurer Mages etc. And Banker is only better with Elysiana (still not always, because you risk a random Hecklebot, even if it’s not very common), Bremwaster is better against all the decks where you don’t hit turn timer limit because you shuffled 20 extra cards into your deck. Banker is basically a 2/2 on the board with no extra effect, Brewmaster can be used to bounce your good Battlecry cards / wounded minions / etc. and replay them. Even when just played on T2, 3/2 minion is WAY better than 2/2, since it can contest all the 3 health minions.

Sorry, we just copied a template and forgot to change that one part. Fixed now, thanks 🙂

That’s right. Plus if you happen to draw Mecha’thun, you can just throw Undatakah and every other card early and just combo it with Inner Rage after you’re out of cards. And lots of your minions (e.g. Militia Commander, Dyn-o-matic) are pretty good at 1 mana.

Penguin is out of Standard anyway 🙂

Priest isn’t in a great spot right now. Miracle version shows most promise, but it’s still not a great deck. Or rather, it IS great when it works, but it’s not an incredibly consistent one – you get a lot of terrible hands that you just can’t win with. It’s also pretty difficult, so in the lower ranks it’s a low Tier 3 deck at best. It got briefly popular in high Legend, but mostly because of the novelty – players still didn’t knew exactly what it can do and how to face it. Once they’ve started teching for it, it was no longer that good.

But it’s basically the story of Priest every rotation. The class has a pretty weak Classic set, which means that it relies heavily on the expansion cards. We just had a lot of the good expansion cards rotate out, and not enough were added in their place yet. I think that it should get better going into 2nd and 3rd expansion of this year. It happened in Year of the Mammoth (Highlander Priest), Year of the Raven (Resurrect Priest) and it will probably happen again once Priest gets more good tools. Of course, the perfect solution would be to fix their Classic set by buffing it a bit, but right now buffing is against Blizzard’s policy for some reason.

Wild Meta Tier List was just updated for Rise of Shadows. Huge thanks to Roffle for doing it!

When I’m posting meta decks people complain that they’re boring, same decks that they face on ladder all the time. And then when I post off-meta decks and weird builds, they downvote them 😀
