Ranking The Recent Card Buffs - From Least to Most Impactful
And it’s still bad. I do understand that it’s not the easiest deck to play, but it doesn’t make as big of a difference as some people imagine. If the deck is difficult, it might lose 2 or 3% average win rate… but Pogo sits at ~45%, so even if we add the win rate lost due to “difficult deck tax”, it’s still bad. If it was great, but difficult, people would play it all over high Legend and in tournaments (like Patron Warrior was, for example). But they don’t. It’s not a terrible deck and it definitely has some good matchups, but it’s NOT a great deck.

My bad, fixed that part. For some reason I confused it with Goblin Prank. It still doesn’t change anything NOW, but it does mean that the card has higher potential.

Freeze Mage - Shadows Post-Buff - #17 Legend (Natume)
Yeah, I would also go with SoLegit’s build to be honest, I think he has most experience when it comes to Freeze Mage in this expansion.
Combo Miracle Priest - Shadows Post-Buff - #53 Legend (MikkerBoyDK)
Oh yeah, sorry, forgot to update source when updating the deck to the newer version.
Tavern Brawl - Brawl Block: Gods, Gadgetzan, Gurubashi
Really? You added your comment around 10:30 PM (22:30) my time. I hope that I don’t have to say anything more.
Bwonsamdi Priest - Shadows Post-Buff - #103 Legend (Dono)
I disagree. Lots of weird and non-meta decks end up getting to high Legend ranks. Between being a great player, surprise factor and – obviously – having some luck, it’s very possible.
Like, I’ve seen Reno Hunter getting to high Legend when Reno was still in Standard…

No, it also applied retroactively to all previous sets! It was tested by many players, I also bought up to 10 packs from each expansion that was in Standard at the time and got Legends ๐

IIRC, they didn’t want to put Wild packs in the shop, because people might buy them by mistake thinking that they can be played in Standard. I guess that they did the same with Wild bundle.

In-game you mean? That’s because you can’t buy Wild packs in game. It’s available here: https://us.shop.battle.net/en-us/product/Hearthstone-tokis-wild-bundle

Thanks a lot for pointing it out – must have missed it. Updated it! ๐
Wild Evolve Shaman
If there is no minion with +1 mana cost, nothing happens. E.g. if you try to evolve Mountain Giant, it just stays exactly the same (it doesn’t even “refresh”).

Sorry, it was ~3 am when I was posting the decks last night and I was too tired to check them thoroughly. As it turns out, SN1P-SN4P part of the code was broken and it didn’t display. Decks are fixed now.
How to Crush the 14.4 Arena โ Tips & Tricks for Power Level Picks
It’s still the lowest win rate class according to stats, but no longer by such a huge margin. Instead of ~39% win rate it now has ~43% win rate.
Warrior is always a problematic class in Arena, because they need some seriously powerful cards to compensate the fact that their Hero Power could as well not exist.

Epic Crafting Guide was just updated for the Rise of Shadows Post-Buff Meta. Comments below this one might be outdated.
Let me know if you spot any mistakes!
You will get two Basic cards that replace Vanish & Mind Blast (so Plaguebringer and Radiance) automatically, since Basic set is free for everyone. You won’t be able to Dust them too, since you can’t disenchant Basic cards.
You won’t get the other cards for free – you will be able to craft them or open in Classic packs. If you had one of the cards they replace, you already got its full Dust value back when it rotated.
