TIL that a Titan with no abilities left can attack as normal, AND abilities count as attacks, so if they have Windfury, you can use two abilities or use the last one then attack, as did my DK opponent, when my heavily magnetised V-07-TR-0N Prime used his last one to become a Windfury 25/17.

You might want to check your in-game shop for a free standard pack. I dunno if it's bugged, but I think that's the second or even third one in a short while.

Draw 7 won’t be good on a lot of rogue decks, however rogue is getting a one mana 3 durability weapon and already has a ton of weapon buffs and cheap damage.

Isn’t this the class that has your next spell is free? On a minion? How is that even a card in the first place. Also don’t need to worry about not having a target just hit that stupid minion.

It's still in development. Unfortunately for Reynad Backpack Battles is very similar to what he was doing.

Having played Secret Rogue a fair bit last month, I was much more likely to have hand size issues than to actually run out of gas. It sounds crazy to say, but I don’t think Rogue actually needs a draw seven? Maybe after rotation, when the Concoctions and Double Cross are gone.

The card would be bonkers in, say, Hunter or Paladin or even some variations of Death Knight, but Rogue seems like the exact wrong class for it.

It's uncollectible, in case you weren't aware. I get their thought behind using rarity symbols for the Excavate treasures but for reveal season it's just been confusing.

pretty sure it's not a treasure, just a regular common. treasures are 1, 2 or 3 mana (or 4 for the legendaries)

hell, if you give a titan mega-windfury, for example with battleground battlemaster and whirlwind tempest, on the turn you play it it can use all three abilities and then attack right away

Oof, am I crazy for thinking this weapon could carry taunt warrior all the way to the bank? That two drop looks pretty cool too, even though I don't know how good a conditional keleseth is ITYOOL.

Honestly they're really good Taunt warrior cards, especially the weapon, and Powderman is SOLID.

"Everyone's entitled to their point of view, but that's seriously a weird one."
Warrior already has ~4 cards that work with a hand/deckbuff + taunt archetype so there's a real chance it'll work.

I think it is really good, like a more powerful but less controllable Patchwork. In control warrior you will often draw through most of your deck anyway so getting one or two activations doesn't seem to difficult.

Sure, but you can use that line of argument to justify literally any effect that isn't 'Cost X: Battlecry: Win The Game'.

One thing to note is Patchwerk specifically targets minions, which is what most legendaries are, so it tends to have a big impact. This targets any card so I think it’ll be much less consistent(not to mention having to actually draw them first, and you can’t really control when they go off), and it’s an 8 mana do nothing card the turn you play it

I mean, they’re all four-mana 5/5s. It’s like the quest rewards being five-mana 7/7s or whatever; yes, it’s an undercosted stat line, but you have to jump through hoops to get it. Unless the Warrior one is really bad, I think the Mage excavate reward is pretty clearly the worst one, not least because the Mage excavate cards are so bad.

As for the TNT guy, he’s the new Tickatus. He’ll make people really salty, and you’ll see a lot of furious Reddit posts calling for him to be nerfed, but he’s not actually going to be that strong… Like, what does this even go in? Enrage doesn’t want it. Menagerie doesn’t want it. Control might like it… but it interferes with a lot of that deck’s selection tools like Chorus Riff, From the Depths, and Steam Guardian, so he might not be worth it even there. He needs a long-game-oriented deck that wouldn’t rather just play Odyn and smash people, and it’s hard to picture such a deck.

At least I don't dance with them, right?
We still have the Mage legendary reveal at Blizzcon, so that could be the good Excavate card Mage is waiting for.

Also: yeah, Tho'grun's biggest problem is being the second eight mana "big keywordless body that sets up for future turns" card in Warrior whose effect is fundamentally less game-winning than the last one. It's hard to fit that many cards of that type in a deck.

EDIT: Apparently these offers are random, but check anyway as any money off is helpful.

Those on Android, make sure to check your Notifications on the Play Store, there's a $4 off $19.01+ offer that expires 11/17 on any game or app. It makes it seem/sound like it's only valid on some bubble game, but when you look at the offer, it's on anything $19.01 and higher.

The catch is that it's not passive - you have to claim the offer before you can use it.

Four bucks is four bucks, especially going into a new expansion. :shrug:

For some reason I have "1zł off for spending at least 5zł" which is roughly "$0,2 off when I spend more than $1,2". Um, that's nice?

They seem to have a version of the new set 10 packs = legendary attached for each of the 5 sets included which would make them an interesting value proposition even for people with fat collections getting the minimum 'normal' 5 cards per pack from them if they price them like standard packs, if they attach a premium to them then it's all over
