The wheel card for warlock is also why the badlands reno changes happened. Was basically a free turn if you had it in your hand after you played wheel, and ofc you have no more duplicates since you destroyed your deck

[@menialbee]

it was basically 2 free turns cause of the 1 minion restriction

[@melonxo]

non highlander dragon druid running it was the main reason

[@alessandromazza4557]

Best thing is: when you have these cards they are always on the bottom of your deck, but when your opponent has them he top decks them perfectly on curve

[@MrFlame-zk5cy]

Haha, yeah, Pirate Demon Hunter is so busted. It got me to legend in wild, and I don't even own Patches... or Patches and i could still kill on turn 3 or 4 in like 40% of the games I played

[@err0rc0degames]

My most hated Hearthstone legendaries ever. Some of these are fun to play with, but in general they really bring down the game's quality. Actually went through the complete wild list for this: Reno Lone Ranger, Yogg-Saron, Yogg-Saron Unleashed, Dr.Boom Mad Genius, Bloodreaver Gul'Dan, The Demon Seed, Shudderwock, Kingsbane, Catrina Muerte og version, Aman'Thul, The Amazing Reno, Frost Lich Jaina, Portalmancer Skyla, Aviana + Kun the Forgotten King, The Primus, Reska the pit Boss, Helya,

[@dwreanchinotan]

druid should be the class with "if your deck contains no neutral minions without the beast tag" for a lot of their bollocks.

[@Marcozzz8]

I miss summoning larger and larger men

[@elfbog]

in a good hearthstone deck every card is free, the first card you play makes everything else cheaper, and the same can be said for the second card played, nothing is expensive, everything just flows because everything is free, there is no mana, its all an illusion

[@loganvogt4369]

The problem with Druid is that there’s no “culprit”. Druid just has so many good cards, and fixing that requires nerfing half their collection.

[@Squid-King]

It really feels like the power level has hit the ceiling over the past few years, and now Blizzard is actively trying to break down it down so they can raise the power level EVEN higher than before. How long will it be before we start dying on turn 2 on a consistent basis, or aggro kills you at such a fast speed that you physically cannot play the game anymore? Personally, I don't think Blizzard is able to or is even remotely willing to close pandora's box at this point. Radar Detector was REALLY broken. As someone who managed to hit legend several times with Mech Paladin when it was still good, the deck puts out so much pressure that almost every deck at the time just was not able to beat it. Even totem shaman struggled to beat the deck unless if they highrolled with devolve, which wasn't often. It was just too much card advantage, too much board presence, too much power way too fast. Honestly that just sums up most of the decks that popped up since then.

[@3takoyakis]

Oh please Power level has been brought down since festival Totally not bcs I'm coping that not a single hunter card is playable. Totally not it.

[@BIOHAZARD_V2]

Least unhinged hearthstone rant Good vid, really enjoyed it

[@player1id]

I have a special place in my heart for plague death knight. it was my first real competitive deck when I got into the game around the start of Titans. I also happen to get primus as my free legendary off the rewards track.

[@ZanderBennett-e7n]

I kinda wish that each card that you mentioned by name would flash on the screen for a couple seconds for those of us who can’t remember almost any card by name :)

[@Smallpriest]

13:00 Im genuinely surprised you mentioned the spell damage version of Auctioneer Druid, because frankly no one plays it Btw max damage output is 38 (without getting an extra copy), which is not enough to kill renathal decks, so it sucks (i think i had like 35% WR) The previous nerfed version with floops gloop and forbidden fruit is way better, because damage isn't an issue

[@power4president515]

Seeing the udyr troll face emote in a hearthstone video wasn’t something I expected

[@KrazyKrab7]

Flare is just going insane

[@HUmanMustard]

That wild dorian deck is insane, I went from bronze to Legend with a 85% WR. with a prefect fraw it goes off turn 2. Without a perfect draw it might take til turn 4 , so your opponent better be the fastest agro deck ever made.

Stranglethorn Heart also sees play in Wild Beast Hunter to rez Tundra Rhinos and infused Shadehounds, and I think it's a fine card for that purpose. The big beast package is weak, but the card itself is not.

[@filipvadas7602]

1. I swear I feel like the only person on the planet who actually likes Helya lol 2. Literally everyone and their grandma knew Pirate DH was going to be disgusting. Players warned Blizzard but they didn't care 3. Puppetmaster Dorian + Aviana is literally one of the most busted combos in the game, complimented by a class that can ramp like crazy. I am baffled they even realeased it 4. Rogue has always been problematic cause of the mana cheating. So the fact that they basically just keep giving them *even more* is insane to me. 5. Murloc Shaman is easily one of the most degenerate things in the game. 6. The saddest part is that Discard Warlock is actually REALLY fun. The MoTLK & Caverns of Time support did a lot for the deck's consistency, but Soul Barrage's existence *specifically* made an otherwise fun strategy toxic as all hell. *I REALLY wish Soul Barrage and Clumsy Steward didn't exist!* 7. Warrior was so disgusting in Titans. Literally every other match was Warrior and the sheer idiocy of letting ANY class hit you for 20+ damage basically from hand is baffling to me. And the fact that they gave them Reno, Brann, Tho'grun and *RAMP* in Perils is absurd

[@manwifedaria9626]

Theotar absolutely sucks to play against. i feel like it should only choose a card from the owner's hand and swap randomly, which would put it along the lines of dirty rat and allow it be unnerfed in the mana department.

[@leobastian_]

Wasnt the reason for the highlander change that people were putting hero card reno into non highlander decks? because he was such a good card it was worth waiting till later on to play him. As far as im aware the change had nothing to do with helya or plague death knight.

[@FlareIsGone]

Yeah I literally mentioned that warrior specifically would just run duplicates, the plague aspect still mattered because again if they cared they would have added ONE word of text which changes it completely, they're not fucking idiots that can't read their own cards they do changes like that deliberately

[@BunnyOnASnuman]

Its so baffling to me that they decided to do plagues the same expansion where they reintroduced highlander cards

In standard Big Beast hunter the most satisfying deck for me rn, depending on the egg rng you can get some insane tempo or/and value and stomp all over the degenerate decks

[@marcmardu]

I relate so much with the pirate hunter looool so annoying. I play shaman murloc in wild and I can kill my opponent with ease in turn 4 to 5, evryfin is awesome is destroying. BUT, pirate demon hunter, another super aggro deck, can counter my deck just by having an decent opening hand in a way that I feel like playing an deck from 2014.

I disagree with you about hunter cards. On wild, reno hunter has enough tools to resist againts aggro and those big beasts together with the Stranglethorn Heart create a lot of tempo and burst dmg, off all the reno decks that I've played in wild, reno hunter is the best

[@slapmeelmo2411]

I still can't believe you didn't even mention the god awful rng aspect of Plagues since: 1) whether or not it turned off highlander was based on shuffling TWO OF THE SAME plague or more meaning you could either instantly brick highlander cards by shuffling two of the same or being unlucky and shuffling one of each. 2) FROST PLAGUE is absolute cancer and whoever thought it needed such a game ending effect needs to be questioned. The other plagues do inconsequential shit but frost plague makes your next card cost a whole ONE MANA MORE. This can literally brick your turns and force you to skip your turn and lose. 3) playing helya as soon as possible was mandatory cause you could end up with your highlander opponent drawing all the duplicates of their plagues before you drop her 4) the deck is an aggro deck that easily floods and controls the board with powerful AoE effects and at times 0 mana 8/5 rush minions with reborn 5) the deck also had major aspects of RNG generation of extra plague cards which made playing around helya with steam cleaner useless cause they could just generate more random plague creators Fuck thag deck and its god awful randomness, I just wanted to play highlander paladin
