Yeah, I read that, and I completely agree with them. When they could get the Buzzard/Timber Wolf/UTH on turn 5 it hurt really badly. Now that that can't come until later on, people are going to make adjustments (and my murlocs are going to cry much less).

As long as I can still Leeroy + Timber Wolf + UTH, I will be happy.

UTH updated today.

I wonder how many times you'll see someone go to drop the full combo, then end up 1 mana short.

Just drafted this deck in Arena. Busted much?

What ended up being your record with that? I'd cry if that came after me.

FIVE water elementals?!

My first arena I had 9 wins. After that, well...not so good.

8-1 with it so far. Yeah, 5 Water Elementals is pretty busted. Plus the 3 Earthen Farseers to make them even more ridiculous. 3 Fireballs, a Poly, and a Flamestrike...definitely my best Mage draft ever.

Another ridiculous 12 win Arena deck. Missing cards at top are Blessing of Wisdom and Equality.

Somehow I keep getting absolutely busted decks with Pally. Sorry, I just had to:

I'm not even sure I'd want 5 Truesilver Champions--too much hand clump.

5x Truesilver Champion is the reason the deck is OP. If Truesilver had no text it would still be one of the best weapons in Arena; the fact it mitigates the only real downside of weapons pushes it way over the top. Drawing into multiple copies is also never an issue since it only comes with 2 swings. The only real dilemma with Pally is controlling tempo in the early game, namely before 4 (since Pally easily clogs at 4 with its superb class cards). Thankfully I drafted a fair amount of cheap decent minions (Leper Gnome and Bloodfen Raptor is also not shown at the top). If I ever entered turn 4 with a Truesilver in hand and one or two minions already sticking to the board, I'm in a great position for consistent value from mid to late game. If I could change anything with the deck, it would be to adjust the mana curve slightly lower. Blessing of Kings and Hammer of Wrath is not necessary with multiple Truesilvers, but I drafted them early before I started snowballing with the Truesilvers.

My only loss was against a Mage that had 2 Flamestrikes. I also did not see a single Truesilver in the top 15 cards of my deck...my love-hate relationship with Hearthstone RNG is real.

Anyone else super excited for the Nax expansion? I like that they're having a solo adventure mode aspect with it as I don't often play online (other than with friends or to get the minimum required rank for the card back reward).

I am! It'll give us some fresh new stuff to play with and against! :)

Naxx does sound pretty fun.

That being said, where is the priest card preview guys?!

I think Priest and Hunter are the only classes not spoiled yet.

Really liking Reincarnate though. So much combo potential.

I think it's funny that they ever considered calling it "Rebirth", lol. I wonder if they originally designed it for the Druid and then changed it to Shaman but didn't change the name.

Overall I like the Deathrattle focus of the Nax set so far. It's fun to have something that you can both control yourself and still benefit from if your opponent does certain things, too.

Another 12 win Arena deck. Funny thing is that I had so much tempo early game I barely ever used the 2 Flamestrikes:

After playing since the Beta it finally hit me "Oh hey, I wonder if any Redemption players know about this."

I still miss the power of Nat... RIP.

New Priest card spoiled today. Possibly the best 3 drop in the game: https://twitter.com/PlayHearthstone/status/476937014927839232

YESSSSSSS!

Priest definitely had some early game problems, this will fit nicely along with my Blademaster + Circle of Healing combo.

I do like the new Priest card a lot. Priest is one of my favorites to play (not in the higher parts of ranked play), but yeah... that early game is rough.

I'd like to get Legend at least once before the expansion is released, but I get stuck at Rank 2-3 every single time and slowly give up because EVERY SINGLE PERSON PLAYS ZOO LOCK. It's so boring. I hate it.

I don't like zoo lock either - my main deck is murloc-lock and I'm messing around with a mage deck too. I got my rank 20 for the season for the new back, so this season I'm just messing around and seeing what I can and can't do.
