Congrats.




Soggoth saw a tiny bit of play. Would still get rekt by things like deadly shot and twisting nether.

10 mana with no direct impact on the board doesnt seem too appealing imo

And Peacekeeper
And Equality
And Sheep from Kazakus
And silence + hard removal
And freezing trap
And the new Warrior legendary
And brawl
And mirror entity
And sylvanas
And bgh
And devolve (majordomo anyone?)

Imo a 10 mana 12/12 is just too slow.

I don't like when people use this argument.

this can be said to literally any minion..

That's why you don't spend 10 mana on a minion that doesn't do anything

the new rogue 5 drop aswell

And for all these reasons I don't play strong cards. Too scared to get them removed. Spells only decks

These are the reasons big drops with no impact the turn they are played never get played.

Too many super efficient removals.

Tyrantus is a good example of the card design philosophy that is frustrating me so badly. For you Magic the Gathering guys, it reminds me of Darksteel Colossus. But Darksteel Colossus was really only useful because of Tooth and Nail.

One change I would like to see is Blizzard reversing its stance on 'combo' decks, and card power levels.

Magic the Gathering takes into consideration the fact that a card can be seemingly overpowered on its own, but still be balanced in the scheme of the metagame. Blizzard has to deal with more whiners (not whiners like me, not many care what I have to say, but whiners like "Dr. Boom? More like Dr. OP!"), so I get that they're a bit more sensitive on this topic.

But Blizzard also officially stated they don't like OTK combos, and clearly don't like the idea of combo decks in general. Proof: Original 20-cost Molten Giant, Original 1-cost Unleash the Hounds card, Original Yogg-Saron, both original charge warrior cards, original force of nature with charge, original buzzard (2-cost), original 4-cost leeroy, original 2-cost blade flurry, original 5-cost gadgetzan, 0-cost soulfire, 0-cost hunter's mark. I might've missed a couple. Some of these changes were warranted, but all of these cards were great combo pieces. Most of the changes went from 0-to-100 really fast... they didn't say "Okay, this card is too powerful", they said "Okay, let's make this card not work in combo decks." Molten Giant is a great example of nerfing something to oblivion, while Unleash the Hounds is a fair example of a good reworking of a card.

If Blizzard is releasing cards like Tyrantus, I get disappointed, because I know they don't support combos. So Tyrantus will be tough to get out, and won't be competitive much. The really funny thing is, "Tooth and Nail" is almost exactly what Blizzard needs for Druid right now... it fits in with the "Choose one" idea perfectly.
