I'm told by Blizzard folks that they're fixing the Rheastraza egg generating herself interaction btw

[@RazingTheBay]

Oh blessed days the dragons will not override us immeaditely into the patch

[@dyondenhartog6154]

One of your Badlands review videos is unavailable to watch for us. Can you fix this please?

[@chambatips3619]

[@ConcerninglyWiseAlligator]

The rule is "cards that generate other cards cannot generate themselves". So the druid highlander dragon has that extra step with the egg that makes it OK, cuz it's dragon -> egg -> dragon, not dragon -> dragon. And, yeah, they should change the text in Rhaestraza so she specifically doesn't get around the rule.

Saxophone Soloist disagrees

[@PenguinWithInternetAccess]

​@@zafnas5222 Saxophone soloist doesn't discover stuff, it adds itself (a 1 mana 1 2 so not really a terrifying prospect) to your hand Here we're talking about an infinite value generator not supposed to discover itself discovering itself, another infinite value generator

[@Jonathan-or3zq]

Blizzard confirmed that it is bugged and this it you won't be able to discover it in when the new expansion launches

[@hadvar.the.viking]

​@@Jonathan-or3zqthank god

[@brainfreezor]

2/3 taunt guy disagrees

[@The5lacker]

The thing about Reno is that he's so strong, I think he may be an auto-include in practically every single deck going forwards, as long as you aren't, like, two copies of fifteen cards. If there's even a *chance* that you'll have thinned out your deck enough by mid-game for him to work, he's a free "Turn game around in your favor" card that also comes with a hero power that, if nothing else, can end games.

[@LightRuler003]

Nerf to 10 mana incoming

[@kkjjqrysdgadff7782]

He should be 10 mana and remove the "one minion next turn" condition and he'd STILL be insanely powerful.

[@kkjjqrysdgadff7782]

Although it's a moot point as highlander decks will just die to all the turn 4 "summon a full board of massive minions" and otk decks.

[@arctikc5889]

The only change I want to see is to make the removal effect symmetrical. He removes interesting decision making with tense boardstates by just removing the enemy board and letting your minions go all face. Makes board based decks WAAAAAY worse

[@The5lacker]

@@arctikc5889 He makes Board-based decks worse while simultaneously being the single strongest finisher for a board-based deck in existence. It's *real weird.*

[@buddyhoss]

That first game was...something else. 🤔

[@kristophercornwell5825]

I gotta say I wasn't enthused about Taunt Warrior all that much post Badlands reveal. But this makes it seem decently enjoyable. Wish Warrior had their Un Goro quest in Standard to capitalize on all the taunts. Thanks for the great content as always, Kibler. Keep up the great work :)

[@Byzantine343]

If that is the current intended interaction in that first Druid game, then I can almost guarantee it will get changed.

[@PenguinWithInternetAccess]

I can absolutely not believe this is intended, it would contradict one of the few strict rules hearthstone has implemented

[@PenguinWithInternetAccess]

[@petahoee8281]

​@@PenguinWithInternetAccesswhat strict rule???

[@anttroll6685]

An established rule is that discover cards can no longer generate themselves, this is to avoid chaining copies of the same minion / spell

[@REDDAWNproject]

but that's WHY its intentional. its not rheastraza generating Reahstraza. its the nest generating Rheastraza.@@anttroll6685

[@rickdaniel7341]

I want a Signature card for Zilliax that just Dr. Boom holding up blueprints for Zilliax

[@lierx.agerate8230]

If they didn't put the same word on every card I would never know how to build a deck

[@mak.]

Battlecry: If your taunt minion has taunt then your taunt minions everywhere get +1/+1. Draw a taunt minion.

[@IIOver9000]

I just imagine the dude playing the Druid that first duel just jumping in desbelief and laughing maniacally 😂

[@invictus7736]

I like how he just matches up against a random standard shadow priest deck with 1 new card lmfao.

[@HazmatStoriesTV]

first game: Hs devs in a nutshell

[@niven7953]

First game was so tilting to watch that i couldn't finish the video. Even if it's a bug, the secondhand soul-crushing despair from the double Rhea was too much for me.

[@raznaak]

Triple Rhea...

[@Satherian]

Honestly, that first game is a big reason I have a problem with the new Reno - he wipes your entire board, regardless of health, and before anyone says "Twisting Nether did that, too!", Twisting Nether still activated deathrattles, cleared all friendly minions, and didn't leave a massively strong board debuff Sure, Reno has the downside, but the upsides massively outweigh it

[@jasonpauldegraaf]

Kibler playing the B-team decks for us before the expansion. Thanks for taking the hit!

[@user-yr1mk5it5y]

Absurd interactions as always. I don't think I'd like to experience this new meta with Reno wiping your board and infinite eggs. Titans meta was one of the most fun for me.

[@justnobody5527]

Druid still keeps geting druid cards huh

[@bloodyjester4284]

Druidstone looks fun

[@dannytheangel]

I'm surprised that DK Rattle you played hasn't been added on your channel. It's amazing to use at early ranks. Highly recommended for new players.

[@PenguinWithInternetAccess]

Ah yes broken interactions or average druid tuesday

[@kierkegrad]

Really hope they'll add a highlander card for Death Knight in a miniset

[@darkraitheshadow9903]

Why don't we add the Ragnaros hero power Quest in the deck?I think it will be very good

[@leeartlee915]

Dude, seriously, what is with Blizzard and Druid? 10 years on, don’t they get what makes that class OP?

[@Gavinbelson]

its an inside job.

[@raznaak]

Small indie company.

[@clintongriffin2077]

Remember when prince kalaseth was format defining in rogue?

[@zsoltmohacsi2216]

Nice hat :) Statson?

[@zhipengren]

hopefully i pull reno and dragon stuffs next Tuesday, saved like 40 packs as a ftp...

[@stevenserban622]

They better not fix the rheastraza generating more. Would make Reno unbearable and Highlander Druid impossible to play against other Highlander. It would kill the archetype which is actually fun

[@topsna1667]

Asvedon should reall have the option to target the spell

[@LEBADITIGALCOLORS]

It’s value town

[@user-yp8hc8gz2x]

The name of this deck should be big green taunts.

[@mistermaniac3517]

you laugh but i find the game totally joyless these days.

[@semperfidelis8312]

How to get diamond Zilliax?

[@nightcoreinsanity1294]

Druidstone evrery expansion legit

[@hendryroc]

bro i watched u several years ago, now u turn to a rheno

[@nerdock4747]

Imagine having a game so dead that you have to print cards to literally break it in half to maintain interest.

[@PenguinWithInternetAccess]

Man idk I hate many design decisions in this game but I've heard the game was dead since witchwood or something

[@FeelsGouda]

Ah the classic "I have no interest in it, so game is dead" argument. The classic.

[@kevvdo2851]

It's so dead but yet you're watching the content🤔

[@frug9236]

Druid and terrible game design. Name a more iconic duo!

[@brainfreezor]

You are barely audible through piano+loud game

[@hodenbacke55555]

WHY THE STREAMERS CAN PLAY NEW SET ALREADY!!!!?

[@jferrante831]

Part of a theory craft server to help get people excited.

[@DigimonFan814]

Kibler, you're awesome, but you complaining about the druid running singleton cards with duplicates in their deck is ridiculous when you were doing the same thing in the video you posted yesterday.

[@bmkibler]

It wasn't complaining that they had duplicates. It was more exasperation that they had a perfect ramp draw into their highlander cards *and* all their duplicates to turn them on :p
