I had two in one of my games. I was pleased to confirm that the cost is based on overall HP uses, not just while it is in hand and dropped both the turn I drew it (for two mana each).

Yeah, the jousts just don't seem to be great. Even if you are 60/40 to win, the effect is just not really enough to balance the uncertainty. I guess the show cards mechanic is kinda interesting though. Inspire actually might make for some interesting decks, provided you are a class that uses HP...

Well, it isn't really very playable at 2/3 +1attack when damaged for 3. It would be for 2 or at 2/4 or even 2/5 for 3 perhaps. At least the flesheating ghoul activates off other cards and that doesn't see constructed play. I'm fine with whatever nerfs it though. Patron is an annoying deck no...

FWA is fantastic early on if you draw it but the nice bonus for the card is that it can replace a death's bite on demand and trigger the rattle.

Well, at least they chose a Mage for the Inspire deck! I think it's probably a mistake to show off the new cards in this format though. They don't seem to be well-suited to decks that aren't designed around them or at least Joust will look particularly bad as a 50/50 effect.

Aui got screwed but the whole system is fucked up. There's only three weeks after TI to submit new rosters and they actually did let him know ASAP that he was being released, which makes it easier to find a new team. Still, it's bullshit bumping him so Fear can position 4 while bringing in...

Oh my. Confessor jacking the RNG up to new heights!

Bucc, Bolf, Mistcaller, Guardian, Chillmaw and Shadow Fiend are all solid cards. Even Sparring Partner is not bad. Shady will either be great or shit depending on if we can make a pirate deck work. It's getting close but I'm skeptical. I think these are the good cards however. They might be...

There is a *lot* of RNG in this brawl. While druid is best obviously, a Mage that rolls fewer duds (battlecry cards for the most part) will crush you often.

That's the big issue. Unless Shaman gets a draw engine that works (or a soulpriest neutral), healbot is simply better outside of some few edge cases.

Situationally useful perhaps in a heavy aggro meta. That is a lot of healing after all. Still not exactly seeing what sort of Shaman deck it works in though.

Mad Scientist really is pretty amazing in the decks that use it. You get immense value out of it. I'd agree though on the Burgler card. It's not bad and I do think it'll see a little play but it sure isn't amazing. Even with stealth it would only be good, not great. The 1/1 for 4? Trash tier...

Fair enough. I'd assumed he had creative license.

I'm with TA on this one. If it were a 3 mana 2/3 or something then I could see places for it but a 1/2 in the 2-drop slot just isn't good enough. It's way too early to guarantee effectiveness and frankly, just isn't that special. Now, it might see use just because we can't run five abusives...

San Francisco if you can afford it. Honestly, it is a pretty fucking spectacular place to live. Nods to N.Y. and to London (although, again, not exactly cheap) and a little love to Toronto and my home of Calgary. That's just homeboy love though of course. If it works for you then Edinborough...

Come on now though. If *anyone* should know their audience it's the DJ.

It definitely is a weird card but I think it will see play. Now, how well that will work out I don't know but I'll give Blizz props for putting out a dangerous card at least. It's either going to be played never after people fuck around with it trying to make it work and failing or it is...

Wp boys, wp.

Ouch. This one is pretty damned close again.

Crazy really. I assume they have some pocket strat in mind but sheesh, you just ban that shit don't you?

Wow. That was a hell of a game!

Offseason drama will be insane already regardless. Too much money now to stop it. Now, the question is if it stays sorta regional/language or if the whole fucking thing just goes all pro-sports. For good or bad, no fan has a team loyalty at all but instead we like certain players or...

Draft was pretty damned greedy too though. Their supports didn't exactly bail them out of course but credit to puppy, kuro and zai for playing near perfectly.

Ok, insta-ban techies is pretty fucking funny but I can't say I blame them. Draft has me nervous though.

Techies!~

For half the discussion I didn't even know it was a Druid class card! Meh. People will try to make it work but I don't know. Still not seeing it being *that* good to be honest.

Yeah, Trump isn't exactly shit at constructed. He's done plenty of legend runs including the basic deck ones. He's definitely better at arena than tournaments but his general play is pretty good.

Meh, Secret will be fine. This one is in the bag.

No way they were going to sit back that time. Impressive victory on a draft that I was less than certain about. Crushed them.

Boys. Letting an AM get this fucking fat is probably not wise. A Burning AM? Probably suicidal. Should be a fun finish though! (EDIT: lol rapier~)

I don't plan on doing anything with my gold. I might buy some packs I suppose but I'll need to see something I want to craft and then probably dump half the gold into packs just so I don't craft something I might draw.

By the time you are in a situation to be able to dump your hand (or a part of your hand) onto the board, another nine drop would also likely be just as useful without you having to tailor your deck to using this one. Your win condition is one that is already a win most of the time without...

But why push for dropping a lot of minions in one or two turns really? Unless they have charge, who cares? One brawl, an owl + any hard removal, even just a silence plus damage from on-board minions, a fucking betrayal or lightbomb or whatever the hell else. There's a million ways to break...

Agreed and I would. The effect is neat and all but not really so special turn 10+ and you've still got to get to turn 10. You can already frequently dump your whole hand at that point and still choose not to do so.

Aviana is a fantastic card, if you are running a deck with multiple 9 or 10 drops and have room for it and some other big minions. I think that decks that slow will continue to get stomped though but someone might figure out a way to make it work. Hey, it might go into existing control decks I...

New brawl seems likely to go one of two directions. Druid of some flavor (single/double combo or whatever) or face/zoo. I'm actually thinking that face will probably work best simply because people will go for too slow of a deck trying to get greedy on the gimmick. Then again, won my pack...

The fuck is this draft?!?

Oh C9, why do you throw so hard?

Great games across the board. This meta actually isn't so bad after all! We'll see how it all pans out.

Yup. Didn't see a 2-0 coming, that's for sure.
