Subject 9 is a draw 5 for 5 with a 4/4 body. It's a great deal in the right decks. Product 9 only suffers from being Hunter and not Neutral.

Shabadu posted:Zarimi is right there and is a tier 2, arguably t1 deck. Better than some classes Zarimi Priest isn’t fun to play. It’s mindlessly throwing down creatures and hoping you don’t get wiped, which is even worse now because the nerf means you don’t have access to tempo zarimi plays where you just want the card/ramp/board instead of a finisher kill.

Hard disagree. Just had an amazing escape vs zoo hunter where a generated Krush kept me alive just long enough for a Zarimi double to generate enough taunts to stabilise. I am a former arena sicko though so I love throwing minions into minions to keep a board together.

According to the new data reaper report, Zarimi priest is the strongest deck in the game right now. You need to run Clay Matriarch after the nerfs, but that's all that it needs.

Oh that's neat. More/easier options to steal 2 key cards? Yes, please. Duplicating it (Tho'grun or Ox) with Powerchord: Synchronize? Hohoho, yeaaaah! I have been harassing Warriors for a while now with this deck. Just had another one concede after I stole their Brann first and then their Tho'grun, then swapping my deck with a copy of theirs and shuflling 6 bombs into their deck a bit later. https://hsreplay.net/replay/dKQLVF5Ks5pDXwH2v3CoAZ Some variation of this works surprisingly often. Tony is plan B if you can't rat their key cards out. Deals with basically all the big Warrior wincons - neutralize the bombs with Tony, Reno or, preferably, Aman'thul the Zilliaxes, so you have Reno for the Azerite Ox. If you had to Tony, there's a solid chance to get another Reno if yours was still in the deck. ### Reno # Class: Priest # Format: Standard # Year of the Pegasus # # 1x (1) Crimson Clergy # 1x (1) Deafen # 1x (1) Fan Club # 1x (2) Creation Protocol # 1x (2) Dirty Rat # 1x (2) Power Chord: Synchronize # 1x (2) Thrive in the Shadows # 1x (2) Twilight Torrent # 1x (2) Watcher of the Sun # 1x (3) Benevolent Banker # 1x (3) Holy Nova # 1x (3) Love Everlasting # 1x (3) Pendant of Earth # 1x (3) Rustrot Viper # 1x (3) Shadow Chord: Distort # 1x (4) E.T.C., Band Manager # 1x (2) Dirty Rat # 1x (3) Rustrot Viper # 1x (7) Tony, King of Piracy # 1x (4) Fight Over Me # 1x (4) Glowstone Gyreworm # 1x (4) Ignis, the Eternal Flame # 1x (4) Invasive Shadeleaf # 1x (5) Shadow Word: Steal # 1x (6) Gnomelia, S.A.F.E.

Forgot this could be a thing... 47 minute, 32 turn long Priest vs Priest clowncar match. (I know, no one is going to watch that, but I'm posting it anyway). Multiple Avianas, rampant card stealing, Kurtus Gunslingering on both sides, deck swapping Tonys... and one clutch Reska topdeck in the end to steal his Ra-den, who undoubtedly would have spawned a menagerie of unpleasant things. People hate on Priest, but this was a fun and interesting game.

what decks are people finding effective right now? it might just be me playing on mobile for once and not enjoying the UI but I genuinely have gone 1-8 today across a bunch of different decks and I'm not sure what the gently caress happened in the week or so I took off from the game

Reno Warrior, Zarimi Priest, Token Paladin, Token Hunter, and Sludge and/or Insanity Warlock are the premier decks right now. But bear in mind that the miniset comes out in two days, and will likely bring with it a few balance changes.

Brann to 8, Saddle Up to 4 Next month’s Twist is a weird one; it’s preconstructed decks with unique hero powers and Duels-esque treasures, but the decks are unlocked by having certain specific legendary cards in your collection. It sounds like a fun diversion but it seems like we’re getting a little far afield from the original pitch for Twist.

Hearthstone devs still unable to nerf poo poo other way than "drag it behind the barn" because anything else would require actual effort. Not going to cry for Brann but drat, it is lazy.

No matter what you think of Brann, he will continue to be a problem for the next year. I’m fine with Brann getting nerfed until basically a niche piece in a combo deck.

ferroque posted:Why are we hitting cards that aren't even in the best decks right now People always make this argument and it’s always a bad one The fact of the matter is that broken decks almost always see a dip in their winrate, but it tends to be because of three reasons that don’t have anything to do with the power level of its cards: a) People get sick of losing to it and switch decks; b) people start heavily teching against it; c) lower-skill players see which way the wind is blowing and start playing it. You saw the same thing with Shopper DH, but Shopper DH didn’t magically become a less overpowered deck just because everyone was playing Glacial Shard x2. In this case, Reno Warrior had successfully whittled down the format into two classes of decks: Itself, and decks that could successfully go under it. It had effectively strangled all midrange and control decks. That’s not healthy format. A balancing philosophy in which one deck is killed so five more have a chance to succeed is a reasonable one, in my mind. Now, whether Blizzard actually achieved that is another story entirely. Their track record over the past year has not been good, and they’ve been poor at identifying root causes and real format bottlenecks in favor of addressing whatever Reddit whines about this week. But “Reno Warrior isn’t even the best deck anymore!” is a weak, weak argument. bravesword fucked around with this message at 18:58 on May 13, 2024 |

Those of you poo-pooing these balance changes, what would you have preferred? I think I’d rather have seen Saddle Up go to 2 mana beasts instead of 3. Brann should double one battle cry a turn.
