    I thought Chromaggus was better than he ended up being, but if you're comparing Aviana to Emperor Thaurissan, you're the one who learned nothing.

    I think the 5 card one might be even worse, since board clearing has always been the biggest weakness of druid.

    Who cares? *edit* Oh I didn't even realize Aviana was a class legendary. Looking back at the pictures, that means Anub is a Rogue legendary? But I guess it only matters in the sense that now we know rogue won't be getting a playable legendary, because nobody would play Anub even if he were...

    Ramp is not very good. Aviana is unlikely to change that. That is fucking amazing. His opponent just rapes him with unstable portal over and over and over, and then Kripp pulls the double rng hail mary and wins the game. I'm pretty sure that based on the board state, that particular combo was...

    I have golden warrior, about 3/4ths of which is from low ranked control warrior play, I've experimented with just about everything in control warrior and I can't picture ever running Aviana because control warrior has a super low threat density and you want to lower that threat density even...

    Win more is actually a perfect way to describe Avian. It does seem like there are people around here who don't understand what win more means.

    Do I have to go dig up the Foe Reaper 4000 discussion and re-post it verbatim? A powerful effect alone does not make a card good. Twisting Nether sucks, Foe Reaper sucks, and so does Aviana.

    Well I'm glad they're getting back to that, the kidnapping shit was just a complete bust.

    Or instead of running Aviana, which is only good with another drop to go with her, I could run another independently powerful 8 or 9 drop.

    Only druid of the claw works that way, because he's a transformation. Ancients and Keepers get the deathrattle just fine. I replaced claw with belchers in my deck.

    Hearthstone

    Anub is clever at least, but those both suck. Anub would be competitive with Boom as a 7 drop, maybe playable as an 8 drop, but he's garbage at 9. Aviana is garbage at 9 too. That ability is not so strong that she should have a 5/5 body.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    The living manifestations of the force from Clone Wars are a million times worse than midichlorians and they're canon too. I'd literally be fine with DBZ style scouters that counted midichlorian counts during battle if it meant they'd retcon away those episodes.

    It could if it was a vision instead of memories. I already said it could be a vision. Would just seem kind of weird, would be much better for such a major revelation to be introduced by a high-born eye witness rather than just some arbitrary vision.

    Hearthstone

    There isn't that much difference between midrange and face. You just play cheaper more aggressive threats and go face instead of making trades. And for the sake of argument, if you played 10 ladder matches and most of them were against midrange hunter, demonzoo, and handlock? You'd be an...

    You're going to have trouble with an attitude like that. I'm not saying you can't hit legend without playing face hunter, but your attitude should definitely be 'im going to play whatever it takes to get the job done'.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    That is very true, except didn't it immediately cut to Cersei after the flashback ended, implying that it was her memory? They could do a partial reveal of the flashback, then have Howland explain the whole thing. He does look like he could be Jojen and Meera's father.

    Ah, right. Well things are indeed pointing overwhelmingly to a Tower of Joy flashback. My prediction on another forum is the Ian McShane = Howland Reed theory and that Jon ends up at Greywater Watch on his way south from the wall and thats where Howland tells him what happened at the Tower.

    They can't, because that would also retcon Clone Wars and at least part of Rebels. They'll just do their best to never reference Eps 1-3 ever again.

    Hearthstone

    The correct play was to switch to face hunter. I find that it's often better to switch between variations of the same class rather than to jump to another deck type entirely. I mean with face hunter you still probably would have lost to control warrior, but you probably would have beat midrange...

    I mean, you might want to delay another kid until you're good and comfortable with the extra care your daughter needs, but it won't be impossible to have more kids.

    He definitely broke the 4th wall at the end, he's looking straight at the audience and says he's touching himself tonight. Maybe he actually is talking to someone in the full scene and they just edited it to look like a 4th wall break. Anyway I've seen all the other trailers and I still loved...

    Have you spent much time playing wallet warrior? 3 damage to the face will very rarely be a concern, which is why I mentioned the possibility of a more aggressive mid-range control warrior. Cycling cards is really important when games go long, because you need to dig deep for your power cards. I...

    Wiegraf was Miluda's brother, you fight her twice and are force to kill her the second time. He's quite easy if you're prepared to cheese the fight with auto-potion and yell spam, he's damn near impossible otherwise. Meliadoul was the brother of Izlude (the pain in the ass with jump that you...

    Some control warrior lists only run a single shield block anyway. I wouldn't hesitate to cut both blocks for Bash if I was running into a real heavy aggro meta. and when you do get stuck against control, bash - shield slam is 1 more damage than block - shield slam.

    Celia and Lede were fucking brutal. Fight was even harder if you were trying to learn Ultima on Ramza, but I think that was the second time you fight them.

    Eh it's probably a good replacement for shield block in an aggro heavy meta, but you certainly wouldn't run both, and you'd definitely rather have shield block against control for the card cycling. It's not like shield maiden, which shoved other 6 drops out of the deck to become an automatic 2...
