Gaslighting is not only lying but making a person lose trust in their own perception. If I say the sky was green yesterday I'm lying, but if I can convince someone that they saw the sky green yesterday, then I'm gaslighting them. It's common in cheating partners. If my partner saw me sexting with another person and I deny it to the point that they starg doubting if they saw it, then it's gaslighting.

Cube vs fungalmancer is hard because they were both s tier cards that saw substantial play across multiple classes for almost the whole time they were legal in standard

[@justshane2805]

I havent watched the video till the end yet, but cube was stronger compared to fungalmancer imo: it was used in mech/big hunter and cube warlock was a menace for the whole time it was in standard, and it also enabled some of the best(or the memeist) combo decks in the history of hearthstone(eg. Otk ragnaros druid), meanwhile fungalmancer was only used in aggro decks and was just a good card to support that type of decks.

[@justshane2805]

@@SuperAmazingJared not really, warlock had a shit ton of great anti-aggro cards such as defile, dark pact, void lord, spellstone etc that aggro decks basically had to kill warlock until turn 6 because he would summon a voidlord with skull of manari and eat him with cube and dark pact the cube/possessed lackey(5 mana back then) into dark pact, which meant that if you dont have a silence minion in your hand or some other way of dealing with him(like sap, which wasnt really used because keleseth rogue was really popular back then), or even if warlock summoned a 5/7 charge demon(forgot his name) you lose the game 99%.

52:03 The weapon is actually called "Slayer of the Lifeless" in WoW, you get it from the remade Naxxramas. Both it and these cards are in reference to the WoW episode of south park where the gang must grind thousands of elwynn boars in order to get to max level. The sword of a thousand truths being a dev weapon given to one of the boys in order to finish off the villain of the episode, that which has no life. Hence the sword being called "Slayer of the Lifeless" in-game.

[@rolebo1]

The weapons used as "the Sword of a Thousand Truths" is actually "The Hungering Cold" which drops from Kel'Thuzad in vanilla Naxxramas. "Slayer of the Lifeless" was added in Wrath of the Lich King and uses the same model as "The Hungering Cold", it is a direct reference to the Southpark episode.

The other big issue is in the control mirror (where a card like this is ever relevant) you're never copying anything worthwhile.
