Holy shit does Blizzard hate Rogue

 

[Metro]

Nah they clearly hate Shaman...

 

[WhiteGuts]

5 mana 10/10 what

You still need to draw and play it, but goddamn

 

[GrainWetski]

It's out on the 1st.

They're revealing the rest of the set now on stream: https://www.twitch.tv/playhearthstone

 

[WhiteGuts]

The jade golem mechanic looks like it could be busted

 

[GrainWetski]

Yeah, going to need a lot of board clears. If there aren't enough, the game might end up in a worse than it is now.

 

[Projas]

That warrior legendary seems pretty insane. It's good even if you just run 2 war axes, not to mention when you run something like gorehowl.

 

[v1rus]

dem jade golemz

Still, jg rogue will prolly be shite, and jg shaman will be subpar to, well, shaman.

As such, I invite yall to bow down before us, yer druid overlords. You thought standard and nerfs are gonna keep us down? You thought wrong.

 

[Revenant]

The only class that should be able to outfatigue opponents is control/fatigue Warrior. I protest against druid

 

[v1rus]

This has got to be my favorite card, ever. Not only is the effect new and creative, but look at that phucking face. Jsut look at it. Now imagine drawing this instead of a card you need. Oh the salt, i can already taste it. It also counters reno decks. Sincerely hope its gonna work in new Eboladin, and if it doesnt, im gonna run it anyway.

That shit eating grin is perfect

Looks aside, how is a 1/1 for 1 mana with a negative effect ever gonna see play?

 

[Revenant]

That's a positive effect unless you're playing against a fatigue deck, since it dilutes your opponent's deck when shuffled into it.

It also dilutes your deck in case you didn't notice.

 

[Revenant]

Not if you're playing a deck that has use of 1 drops/1 attack/1 health minions, like the current aggro divine shield paladin.

 

[sser]

Rogues got absolutely fucked this expansion

 

[UglyBastard]

Discuss!

 

[GrainWetski]

It's just sad.

They supposedly killed Blade Flurry because it held back weapons and weapon buffs, but they're still not releasing any..

 

[Projas]

Warlock and Paladin didn't get much either. But I suppose it's still a lot better than rogue.

 

[WhiteGuts]

Well, Warlock got indrectly buffed thanks to the multiple AoEs and boosts to the Reno archetype. I think Renolock will be very fun to play with MSG.

 

[GrainWetski]

Rogues also only got 2 Jade Golem cards unlike the 3 shaman and druid got, so obviously they don't want rogues playing that either.

All so they could get Ferryman and stealthed Magma Rager. Not to mention the mediocre legendary that shouldn't be a legendary.

 

[UglyBastard]

We'll have to see how the Jade archetype plays out. It might suppress other control decks because its ridiculous lategame inevitability. CW will have a hard time against that.

 

[v1rus]

Im quite sure pirate rogue is going be crazy. Ganging up that Patches is phucking crazy. prolly gonna take a more control oriented play, like current murloc pally, but still gonna be viable. I believe ropecoach called the deck unstoppable.

 

[Metro]

Patches is mediocre. Relying on Gang Up to make it good is questionable. Especially in an expansion that brings a lot of new board clears.

Pirate Warrior blows it out of the water and it also got boosts this expansion.
