I feel like Rdu missed the self-damage synergy with the amount of "when this takes damage" and "deal 1 damage to friendly minion" effects.

[@dragoscalinescu7845]

Yeah, came here to say that. I think that card is the main hero of this season xD

[@alexshort3980]

He mentioned that sort of synergy for the beast that deals 1 damage to your minions and then gives +1 health

[@robertogomez2932]

I was thinking the samw thing

[@hardog8298]

​@@alexshort3980people nowadays only have 10mins max attention span. Give them a break

[@VeganKebabDoRuky]

I think you missed the part where he acknowledges it instead

[@noidea2568]

12:58 I don't think it would un-taunt the minion, because it doesn't say on the text that it can do that (like pants and that 3 drop 5/6 that used to be in the game). It can only give taunt, but it can't un-taunt.

[@Scheigy]

It would definitely not untaunt, I think he mixed up this mechanic with the pants spell. Also 20:44 he says it can target minions in the shop, but the card clearly states "friendly".

[@DropDeadJordan]

He’s a pro and an influential figure in the wizard poker scene, do not second guess RDU you’re basically calling him a liar and that is slander and I will not tolerate it, if you think you know better than him post your MMR so we can see who is the better Blizzémon player is. You couldn’t touch RDUs MMR with a ten foot pole, I’ll even buy and send you a 10 foot pole just to watch you not be able to touch it with.

[@TheGoodGuise]

he was talking about Persistant Gward not Assistant Guard lol

[@LostAeon]

I feel like all these upon damage effects make the Fire Dancer from 7:17 quiet valuable. Especially since a golden one repeats the damage, guaranteeing the "up to 3 times" part. And also because it also removes opposite divine shields. Give it taunt and wait for profit. The profit from using this with Long John Copper for 3 coins also seems awesome.

[@arthena2130]

If it becomes meta, you no longer need to golden it, since both players will have it, guaranteeing three procs on all the take damage cards.

[@LostAeon]

True enough!

[@lesiegelad]

Damn we are so back. I hadn't played BGs in years, hopped back in during this current season and was so impressed by what BGs had evolved into. I basically hadn't played since half a year after Elementals introduction to the game. I didn't think they would make the next season SO different, but this is going to be a completely new experience. I love this 😤

[@PeterZaitcev]

Baku the Mooneater and Genn Greymane (Tess' father) were legendary minions from the Witchwood set those restricted your deck to be odd/even cost only respectively to greatly buff your starting Hero Power. I like even/odd cards in BGs referring to them. They also kept original minions' stats (7/8 and 6/5). Also, screenshot this - Felemental would be a Tier 5+ minion with Battlecry and Deathrattle.

[@ThaiDuongHoang-lr6ct]

The art of glim guardian looks like the 2/4 dragon that double his attack when ever it is attack =)

[@BennyBornAgain]

Yes. It was designed after that card.

[@Banshide]

15:02 Golden Persistent Poet and 22:14 Golden Hoarding Hatespawn is a guaranteed permanent 40/40 every turn on that minion, Amber Guardian also isn't gone so it shouldn't be that hard to get permanent divine shields on your entire board.

[@OscarVazquezSL87]

I'm just 2 minutes into the video, but I need to say that this is an amazing job of the editor. Thank You for the effort.

[@monkeybench]

Walking Fort gone? But what is Kripp going to play in hia 5k lobbies now?

[@The_LE_Crooner]

Yikes. Why you mad at Kripp

[@ForOne814]

@@The_LE_Crooner because he's become unwatchable.

[@peterevans2854]

@@ForOne814Then just don’t watch him. Hahah. He for real that low? I just switched to BGs primarily from standard and am at the cusp of 8K after just two months of learning the format. Quest meta has been quite a ride lol.

[@ForOne814]

@@peterevans2854 I did stop watching him, yes. Yeah. He's been at ~6k for years.

[@ktktktktktktkt]

12:57 It doesn't untaunt a minion with taunt lol. Rdu needs to work on his reading comprehension😁

[@BWAttila]

Yu'lon - Start of combat: Make your lowest-tier minion golden Persistent Poet - Adjacent Dragons permanently keep enchantments from combat If you have a golden Poet (so that it doesn't steal the Yu'lon-s buff) you get a golden dragon every turn :S

[@arthena2130]

I also assume that it ignore already golden cards, meaning if you get a golden persistent poet you can force golden dragons every turn. Meaning, you can have so many golden kallys now.

[@popeneiad7968]

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOO BANANA SLAMMA IS GONE. BEST UPDATE EVER

[@arthena2130]

Not sure if Goldrin is gonna be usable without chicken or banana. Seems like beasts are going for buffs now with the new mech beast six drop.

[@SilverusX]

@@arthena2130 they are going to rework some of the minions that stay in the agem. I think goldrin goes from a deathrattle effect to a battlecry

[@arthena2130]

@@SilverusX Would make sense, since it feels like a super bad card without any support for it.

[@Vazik05]

​@@arthena2130it'll still work with Baron and mech horse, and with the other card that was "when another beast attacks give it 1/1 permanently" if it applies to its death rattles too like goldrinn does. It may not though. But Baron mech horse goldrinn will still be viable, if weaker than before.

[@5InTheFamily]

Tarecgosa is back with all this.. dragons s tier incoming

[@ignacioperez5479]

Yulon with the dragon that makes combat effect permanent?

[@YunTaeGoO]

Zilliax looks strong af for a 2 drop

[@vogelkeksg5610]

I think the combination of buffing specific minions and all/tavern and removing of field effects could stop the powercreep a bit. I am excited about the shakeup.

[@ktktktktktktkt]

Isn't zilliax too strong? relatively consistent way to get windfury on your foe-reaper

[@ktktktktktktkt]

I thought you hated warpwing, the way you react when it highrolls you LUL

[@efreemantle3619]

That bull gives me holy makarel flashbacks. I hope it’s not like that!

[@xledgeandairyx]

Came here looking through the comment for the return of holy mekerel😂

[@xledgeandairyx]

Its not the same cuz mekerel would trigger a new shield when one was lost, but bulls stats look sturdy enough to have time to buff it

[@munchyy592]

Really digging the characters on the cards!

[@scaleymf]

1:03 mecha-jarraxus was removed last patch right??

[@scaleymf]

2:33 bro again? greasebot hasn't been in the game for a while

[@Baltasaru]

Missed the Long John Silver pun.. from Treasure Island (Or Black Sails the series for those who prefer a show rather than a book). Here is called Long John Copper which is slightly less epic :P

[@1stmikami945]

i think fire dancer is a really good card if your other minions have the "when this takes damage" text, immideatly gaining value

[@Hopebestman]

MechaJ was already out, did i miss something? 1:03 Assistant Guardian, i think it doesnt UN-taunt cuz it doesnt says about untaunting. I think its like "argus" it just buffs again. 13:08

[@melon5111]

blizz sent them the list, prolly just outdated from blizz.

[@BertBarth]

odd and even made my day. great video! :)

[@Cool_Goose]

The facepalm was the best.

[@mitchlacasse361]

I'm seeing all the new synergies and I'm very excited. I'm excited to try perma-buff big beast and tier 3 demons

[@TH3M4X48]

Wait you can make a refreshable poison divine shield?!?

[@footerching9007]

tunnel bluster is gonna be key crucial card ppl will be hunting for in the game

[@datdat7919]

I love it how synergies of Menagerie come to lower tier! More flexible builds could be formed hopefully🤔

[@snuffles276]

why would the assistant guard untaunt a minion with bran? shouldn’t it just buff twice?

[@thaisui167]

take a shot each time rdu 'like it a lot'

[@WOWb13]

I´m really happy to see that beast now are going to be a start of combat scaling, and have big number, instead of just roll and get lucky

[@beoborf8877]

Greymanes are the Royal House of the Kingdom of Gilneas in World of Warcraft, the mmorpg Heartstone is based on. Tess was their princess, she is now their queen.

[@frostydog6068]

Chicken and banana slamma being gone is amazing.

[@WanoReborn]

Nice cards! Btw, new tier 5 spell cannot target shop, it says - friendly minion

[@DanielGarcia-ip7ht]

Wait grease bot?? I have not once seen that card 2:36

[@DrGeeves]

Yeah it wasn't in. Not sure what's up here.

[@Vazik05]

if the Burrower works with mech horse and all it's deathrattles, it'll be broken for beasts. Also, it just looks like the play for beasts is going to be build them bigger in the tavern instead of a ton of deathrattles getting buffed during combat.

[@harrisondomett3930]

Forgetting teh dragon that gives adjacent dragons permanaent stats from battle. That 6 drop will scale 10/10 at least from each combat

[@Landee]

i already miss them

[@peterevans2854]

The dragon that steals 10/10 is so bad. Take 10/10 from a 150:150. Good job.

[@YunTaeGoO]

mecha-jaraxxus isnt in the game right now anyway Oo same with grease-bot

[@dcbcrcdd]

I feel like all the self-damage tech is going to help push menagerie and help open other doors for playing.

[@johnnyw4607]

20:15 this seems busted with the dragon that makes enchantments permanent

[@stavroskontaratos3777]

first commentor. Also classics RDU he undervalues the minion that deals 1 damage to your minions with so many when it takes damage efects.

[@adeptusmagi]

Good beast just got to used surely you use rampager with buffoon to get max blood gems

[@StzaCrizzack]

looks like they took a lot of mercenaries units and turned them into BG minions

[@Quesajoe]

LISAN AL GAIB

[@antoniogiannuzzi1256]

I think this "whenever this takes damage" started as a counter for the token builds and then it became a whole new mechanic on his own. I don't think I like it because if tokens get too bad no one is going to play them and this whole new mechanic is destined to get boring and frustrating fery soon. Dragons I think are out of business. There is no good dragon to buff anymore! Dragons scale slow, but that was compensated by the quality of the minions. Now they still scale slow, but they have no quality. They removed banana slamma and this was a much needed change. I think mechs are looking surprisingly good in this new patch, they still have their best cards, new good cards are coming, their engine is unchanged and their counters (beasts) are taking a hard hit.

[@electrium17]

I think Silithid Burrower would work like Goldrin, but permanently. Like, it would give stats not just on your board, but to all your beasts, even summons But I don't know, with Titus it sounds kinda broken

[@bazzubi]

LETS FUCKING GO rylak and felemental still in the game

[@justusneubeck]

i feel like the tier six quilboar is kinda to late at tavern tier 6

[@ddokk-]

it looks like "damage your board" meta

[@RE-xu8gs]

I'm calling it right now: Rampager will be one of the most broken battlegrounds cards of all-time. Its stats are incredible, and it synergies with literally everything. It will be an auto buy.

[@zoulzopan]

which one is rampager?

[@randomhero6365]

The doing dmg to your own board minions seem really weird

[@randomkommentelo9015]

I'm only waiting for omega buster to finally go. I just don't understand how it's surviving for so long.

[@brgod]

I’ll miss you warpwing 😢

[@Danty033]

All those new „taka damage minions” will make 1/1 tokens much much worse.

[@manifestasisanubari]

They should make 'Whenever this takes damage' as a new keyword like 'Inflicted' or 'Wounded' or sth since there is too much repetition.

[@frynzegaming]

Is this live or live tomorrow?

[@randomhero6365]

No the 16th or something

[@fergusgraem3625]

12:58 what in the name of brann bronzebeard is this logic?

[@gabilusko]

No changes in MURLOCS?? WTF??

[@fergusgraem3625]

Why does he keep saying that scaling beasts is bad? The goldrinn instant deathrattle trigger beast build is obviously over, so beasts are going to change completely. (Thank god). It is impossible to judge cards about how they synergize with how builds work right now

[@robbechristiaens6384]

watching right now because RDU raided his own youtube video

[@ejcandrin]

Murlocs going untouched is a joke

[@Simon25-17]

Yeah if anything they got buffed, they have almost no counters and a new murloc for early buffs

[@LemuelLeslye]

12:58 streamer cant read lol

[@ljushax]

because i am posting 4 minutes after this was posted i have no idea if this video is good or if i will "love" it. I hope this effectively highlights the HYPOCRISY of the person who posted "first love the video rdu keep it up" because HOW WOULD THEY EVEN KNOW? this video could be GARBINO and you would basically be ENDORSING that. how can you SLEEP AT NIGHT knowing you have perpetuated such ODIOUS BEHAVIOUR? anyways great video rdu keep it up

[@Falloya666]

Bleh

[@chad7753]

Your face is so close its like ur about to kiss me

[@GoddamitJmie]

Em they are removing cards that havent existed in months huh ? Thats cool ? This is actual proof they have no idea what they are doing in thier own game , they put cards on the list that havent been in the game for months now saying they are getting removed , idiots .

[@randomhero6365]

Wtf are you talking about? Every single card except Jaraxus and Greasebot he mentioned getting removed is currently in the game. Calm down bozo
