What if Elvin was female?

Yeah, I saw Kibler playing that in the theory craft or whatever it was called and that crazy when it all came together. Especially when he managed to buff the hero power to like 6 damage.

Also, got 3 more packs from the track and that netted me another legendary - the Cutthroat Rogue one.

I got 6 Legendaries from 80 packs.

Plaguemaw the Rotting (Druid)
Kodobane (Hunter)
Mordesh as Golden ^^
Cariel Roame (Paladin)
Scabb Buttercutter (Rogue)
Brukan (Shaman).

Mordesh especially is so epic looking as Golden, and I wanted the Spellpower Shaman one. Haven't tried Druid yet, been now playing a control Warlock with discard because I got 2 Altar of Fires from packs. I just tell you no matter if you have 8 Soul Fragments in deck it knows to avoid them like a plague

I experienced the deck myself. I thought I was doing pretty well even though I played Zoo Warlock against a deck with a lot of board clears... but he simply destroyed me with Mordresh. The sheer value this card brings is insane: board clear for 10 dmg, 10/10 body and YES - 10 face dmg (so it's even doing pretty well as a finisher).

I think the main strength of the deck comes from the fact how easy he is to activate for full effect with the cards I mentioned in my other post. Couple it with Fallen Hero and Coldarra Drake being now part of classic set (although I don't know if those will be viable) and the archetype (?) received a lot of boost in this expansion. There are a few variants currently (for example with Freeze package) so people will experiment.

I will ofc do some playtesting because it's hard to tell at this point how it will fare against other meta decks.

EDIT: After testing the deck today I don't think it's overly powerful, but definately fun and you can get some really crazy plays with it.

PS: I got Saurfang from the reward track and I'm thinking about trying some Frenzy decks, but I can't tell if what is currently available is enough for a consistent deck.

EDIT: Also got Kazakus from reward track pack. Good, wanted to craft him.

Friendly reminder: Twitch drops this weekend. Read the rules as those have changed a bit: https://www.hearthpwn.com/news/8150-forged-in-the-barrens-twitch-drops-starting-today

Other then that decks I'm playing now and having fun with:
Mordresh Hero Power Mage
Secret Hunter with Barak
Murloc Shaman with Flurgl (crafted him becasue why not?). I netdecked a really interesting deck which also has the new Kazakus and C'Thun for additional win condition. Primordial Protector is a very strong card that gives you two bodies on board and helps you draw C'Thun pieces.
Elemental Shaman (some good Elementals this expansion, see above)
Deathrattle Demon Hunter (pretty fun archetype, though I'm playing without the rattle oriented Legendary which I don't have but don't find him that essential)

I'm also trying to fit Saurfang somehow, I didn't realize it due to wording but his Battlecry actually is made so that it triggers the resurrected minions Frenzy for insta-effect. For now he ended up in my old Rush Galakrond wild deck which I modified a bit. Alas I don't think they made enough cards to justify building a deck around the mechanic, it is rather an addition to existing decks like Control or Galakrond Rush Warrior (or even sth with a Pirate package).

All in all this expansion is more fun then I thought it would be which is great.

BTW Guys a question: I'm wondering about the "Legacy" cards. Do you think it's a good idea to dust them? Not every card, cus Leeroy for example is good card that can even work in some Wild decks. Or is this rather an "dust if you must" case? And there is the case with Ysera which seems to be bugged (?) becasue you're getting 1600 dust for her in Wild and 400 in Classic, yet if you disenchant her in Wild she also gets dusted in Classic (full refund is due to changes in her Dream cards).

On a side note, do you also think playing the game has become more confusing with the addition of "Classic" mode? I mean there are cards which work both in Wild and Classic but some of them have alterante versions and it's a bit harder to get around your collection.

I mean, I don't intend to play Classic, so I don't really care. But yeah, if you want to play both Classic and Wild, I can see how this might be confusing.
I'm still wondering how long will the Classic format even last before it becomes stale and boring.

So far I didn't play it much but I think it might be a nice change of pace if meta becomes too annoying. I mean Classic has some decks that either work or not but definately there is less powercreep there.

Less powercreep, maybe, but there are still overpowered combos. I haven't played, but I watch the Daily moments and I've seen for example Rogues deal around 20 damage in one turn with Leeroy+Shadowstep+Eviscerate. Or Warrior hurting and buffing the raging worgen and giving him charge.

Well ofc Classic had it's shares of "balance" issues, been there seen that. I still remember Mage in Arena (Flamestrike clownfest), Knife Juggler Rogue, Enrage Warrior, Beast Hunter or Freeze Mage. Yet I somehow remember it being more managable. I think more balancing problems began when they started to introduce cards like Dr. Boom and more RNG heavy stuff.

At the same time it didn't have Resurrect Priest

More free packs, 4x Year of Phoenix and 2x FitB

EDIT: Wow, they've added an animation to Snowflipper Penguin which is absolutely adorable.

That is adorable indeed ^^

They are nerfing cards from Rogue, Mage, Paladin and Neutral next week. 6 cards in total which will be announced later. The Watchpost(s) are sure to be nerfed from Neutrals and so is the Paladin weapon. Mage has such synergy they could target anything I think, and Rogue also.

Prolly Deck of Lunacy and Refreshing Spring Water which are the main reasons for Mage dominating the ladder. Deck of Lunacy is a meme card, but due to reduced card pool in Standard it became consistent. You either play this or counters for it. They might target other cards cus devs said some time ago DoL is not a likely candidate for nerf. Paladin is also pretty ridiculous atm, it was successfully powerd-up through the expansions with Librams and some other cards and now they've added the sword that spams Secrets.

Other ideas people throw are Watchtowers and some Rogue weapons (although those can be countered with Ooze). Or Pen Flinger (maybe to sth like "targets only minions"?).

So the nerf predictions were pretty close. That said seems Deck of Lunacy Mage is still around as, like many players said, it's not actually the card itself but the overall current power of Mage being the problem.

PS: Funny thing happened, they recently added full dust refund for Kargal due to that one Watchpost nerf. Well, I got him today as a free Legendary from reward track. I dusted him cus its safe, can recraft him later, plus I don't think I want to play a deck specifically built around Watchposts...

Yep.

They said during the video that "last we left off" Dawngrasp was caught by the Alliance and thrown in the stockades. Which is why Mage's questline is to help him escape.

Ahh ok, didn't watch the full reveal video, only the animated trailer.

I like how they implemented the "Mount" mechanic. A buff that leaves a body totally makes sense, we already had that in Ungoro.

Btw if the made Prestor as hero skin, isn't it time someone made a Dragon avatar? Not that I'm buying this stuff, but here's an idea: an avatar that changes as the battle goes, for example if you reach 10 mana crystals the portrait turns into it's second phase with new quotes etc.

The reveal season is on the way. I like that they keep experimenting with mechanics. There are some interesting cards coming to town.

Hmm...

After the recent events, I must say that Blizzard is out of the question for me.
What a disgrace of a company. I must say as a fan that has played Blizzard games since early 2000, this is just horrible to know that I have supported this company.

That being said I have not paid for a Blizzard game in years. I do not pay to play HS anymore, and I will not do it again.
I do enjoy playing HS. It is a candycrush kinda game for me. I enjoy playing Battleground because it is fun imo.
Last point what company can you really trust nowadays? Every company has bad seeds. So what does a boycut really do at this moment.. ffs.

Oh well, the new cards for Stormwind patch are pretty cool. 👍
