It really is isn't it! Congrats on the run. I only got 150 gold for my 8 run but got 2 cards (1 gold) as well as the pack and gold. They must change it up.
Too many shamans! I hate shamans, the totem RNG is just crazy, whenever they needed SP, it comes out, whenever they needed the taunt, it comes out, and just when you are about to clear the board, the health totem comes out. Too RNG. Back then I worry about the hounds, and now I worry about which totem comes out before a lightning storm. I guess at least it is a cheap deck to make, for a control deck.
As I mentioned on a previous post, it's back in a big way!! The deck propelled me to rank 3.. I can smell that legendary card back,hehehe.. I've been demolishing legendary ranked players all day long.. Even a face trapping hunter(number 1 weakness of the deck).. Lightning storm and the barrage of taunts sure mess up both miracle and tempo rogue..
Btw, this new rouge card on naxx is bloody OP!! This will be the next UTH.. Just imagine the combo with si7, defender of argus, argent commander and leeroy Jenkins.. The stats itself is ridiculous. http://www.hearthpwn.com/news/483-curse-of-naxxramas-rogue-card-revealed-anubar
Thanks for posting the deck man! This is almost the same as the F2P Shaman that Trump used last season - getting him to Legendary even. The only difference is yeah, he did not use any Legendaries at all. Let me try Shaman again...
Sadly, my mains doesnt work well with shamans (rogue and druid). I really do not understand the choice for shamans, even with uth nerf. In anyway, im progressing slowly but thats because i dont play much and i stick with hero that i like, not what meta dictates. Back to the old drawing board then, thinking of utilizing kobold geomancer (with bloodmage) and fan of knives on my tempo rogue. Edit: lost 3 consecutive times already, twice watcher and once token druid. I lose due to no cards in my deck. Games are long and shaman has answers for everything. Lightning storm for 5 anyone? Why not? Go ahead and kill my 5/5 ancient and 5/5 druid of the claw (with power of wild) with the RnG sp totem! Sigh.
That's why they're quite popular now, they have an answer for everything.. Hex also ruins the money cards and they have the low cost but very efficient board clean-up.. Once it establishes the sp set-up it's going to be a long day.. One good way to counter them is to pressure them to unleash a lot of overloads in one turn.. A lot of players are not so patient and a shaman deck needs a ton of it.. Though when ire of RNGesus is upon you, it sure makes runs a lot stressful..
Changed your link into a pic This card is going to increase the viability of Tempo Rogue decks for sure. 4-cost 5/5, means it's bigger than a yeti, and it has a deathrattle ability that can re-trigger S7's ability, not to mention BGH, Defias Ringleader, TBK, and Defender of Argus. Recasting any of these when you have combo cards in hand is bonus synergy as well.
That card is going to be a nightmare.. The good thing is you get to choose the returning minion.. No need to pray to RNGesus, lol!!
Wow! After 3/3 in arena and AFter 2 weeks of playing got my first Legendary. Not sure how good he is... Check out the draw i got from the cards i won from the arena https://www.dropbox.com/s/g6dsb8h4rwf7eb3/2014-05-15%2017.45.59.png
Holy crap a golden Alextrasza!! Well do not dis enchant her.. One of the best legends in the game.. A sure game changer.. Awesome pack there, congratulations.. The sword of justice and mortal strike are also very good cards..
Wow that is awesome!!! Didn't know anything about that card!!! Awesome!... You would not believe what just happened lol. I put her in my Mage deck and played a rank game level 17. Against a priest. He played a card to give him a random card from my deck! And out of my whole deck of like 22 cards he pulls my Alextrasza! Not only that he also had 1 of his own. So he ran 2 of them back to back!
Yeah, priests make me want to take all the best cards out of my deck when I play against them. I played a match the other day where the priest had THREE archmage antonidas cards on the board (not all at once, but still... Sheesh!). He finished me off by dropping Velen-whatever-his-name-is (the priest legendary the doubles all his healing and spell damage) and then hit me with a fireball for 12 damage >.< I hate to cry "overpowered" on anything, but on that particular match I honestly felt it was a little too much. There's nothing worse than the feeling that you are overly punished for putting good cards in your deck, esoecially when you've dumped a bunch of money into the game just to get those cards.
I know it will be. Thing is, people diss it because, admittedly, you CAN lose tempo when the deathrattle effect goes off on a bad time. But knowing this, you have to keep your options open when you play this minion. You can bounce a dying minion, or a minion with haste, or one with a good battlecry or combo like SI7, Swamp Ooze, The Black Knight, and most especially Ironbeak Owl, since i think when the patch hits it'll be the age where silence will be king. Also, taking down a 5/5 is easier said than done. There's a reason a 4/5 yeti is a nightmare.
Ah mindgames.. Well that's the ire of RNGesus for you.. Some Mage decks do use her even on tournaments.. So she'll have a nice home on you Mage deck. @Tabs Here's a Druid deck to counter the shaman.. I used it and found it to be quite effective againts shamans on the ladder.. A very aggressive watcher Druid.. http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/54346-nuba-agressive-watcher-druid
Anybody else noticed that since the update that increased the cost of UTH the stability seems to have decreased? Certainly I've lost more than one game (including Arena) where I thought the game was frozen on their turn, only for a screen to pop up saying you've been reconnected and them to have a board full of minions and I'm sat on like 12 health thinking it was the 1st round!
Thanks for the list! It is pretty similar with my version: -1 spellbreaker -1 ooze -2 argent commander +1 yeti +1 mark of the wild +2 azure drake Will see if the argent will work in the current meta.
