True but I'm not seeing much CWarrior — just aggro and Druid. Seems that the appeal of Druid is sufficient for it to be played into a hostile meta.

Oh cool, another one of those turn 1 kill brawls.
In an hour or two everyone is going to run this, so better get it out of the way quickly.

Edit: Yup, other Druids start to insta concede when they are on the coin.

So I guess that means a 3rd N’zoth card? And probably a 2nd Neptulon?

But moving parts are fun! Especially when you move big charging parts into the opponents face.

This is happening to loads of people. It happens to me on PC but mobile is fine.

I like the Demon Hunter brawl deck that uses Blur and then every spell that gives +attack and every spell that draws cards. Possible turn 1 kill, if you can beat the rope.

Reveal is out, you can check out the cards at https://playhearthstone.com/en-us/cards?set=voyage-to-the-sunken-city

New stuff is Colossal minions (that spawn with additional "part" side minions) and the Dredge mechanic (look at the bottom 3 cards in your deck, put one on top)

You can feel the excitement for the new expansion :v:

The new mechanics look fun. Naga is also being added as a tribe that mainly focuses around spells (shame Darkmoon Faire N'zoth is rotating).

Dredge looks interesting/good, and Colossal is the exact kind of big dumb mechanic that tickles the Timmy part of my brain :allears:

Fun thing about Colossal is that their trigger is summoned, not played like Battlecries. So if you can cheat a Colossal minion out you also get the additional parts, that's neat.

It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.
Just had my first BG game, didn't even know there would be a patch, but as Scabbs I got 3 or 4 of Faelin's buddy while having Brann.

Turns out, getting 24 free minions is preeettty good.

Colossal does look pretty cool. From the reveals so far, it looks like they're moving back toward exciting and impactful later game plays. A lot still has to be revealed but for now I'm cautiously optimistic.

The theme and mechanics look fun, so yeah I'm in a similar boat. If it's a meta of big meaty minions slapping into each other, I'm game.
