they basically thought, you know what, Gruul is really cool but has never seen play, lets make a worse Gruul.

when an 8 mana card might not be played if it was 6 mana...

that 8 mana boulderfist ogre is awful, like skeleton knight bad

Text should read:

Taunt
Deathrattle: Joust. If won, summon an Infested Tauren. If lost, summon a 2/2 Slime.

jousts are battlecries right now :/

Skeleton Knight's joust is a deathrattle.

**** youre right.

i forgot that card existed.

that would be a long ****ing text on the tauren the way jousts are written right now

They just mentioned Skeleton Knight like 5 posts ago lol

I think they're making a real effort to stay away from massive amounts of card text. They've done a pretty good job with keeping things very simple so far, with Joust being their most verbose interaction. And really it's not even called Joust, that's pretty much a player-base generated keyboard; the cards just do exactly what the text says. Now that it's been out for a while, I think it would be ok if they actually changed the text and made "Joust" a keyword. But with the mechanic being pretty bad on the majority of the cards they might just move on and leave it as it is.

They really don't want to get to this point, and I hope they don't. (It took me about 10 seconds to find a MTG card with a lot of text - I am sure there are much worse offenders)

blizzard likes to do this with epics, I think it's no different from astral communion / tree of life / poisoned blade / feign death / confuse etc. You can make a niche fun deck around it & it might even work, but it's not necessarily meant to be consistent & legend viable.

After thinking about it last night I think Renounce Darkness could be playable.

You'll notice you'll only get those messages when you actually draw a card thats not in your deck. As others have said, your deck is not stored locally. When you play monkey or anything else that puts random cards in your deck it doesn't tell you what's coming.

Curious what changed your mind.

Yeah I was wrong about that, after doing some reading elsewhere I think I know what happened. I got that WARNING: XXXX NOT FOUND error message after someone dropped a Spellslinger on me and the spell it gave me was Thoughtsteal. I played that card and when the mage's two cards hit my hand it didn't recognize them.

Well at least I know what legendary I'll be opening up at least 5 times. First it was nozdormu, then it was Gazlowe and finally Wilfred. Can't wait to open this new legendary turd 5+ times.

I actually remember you opening gvg packs and "ridiculous opens gazlowe!" popping up like 4 times. It was both sad and hilarious.

Sjow's card in ~50min.

NOT SJOW'S CARD:



Toxins:
Bloodthistle Toxin: 1 Mana - Return a friendly minion to your hand. It costs (2) less.
Briarthorn Toxin: 1 Mana - Give a minion +3 Attack.
Fadeleaf Toxin: 1 Mana - Give a friendly minion Stealth until your next turn.
Firebloom Toxin: 1 Mana - Deal 2 damage.
Kingsblood Toxin: 1 Mana - Draw a card.

that sounds incredible

its a smaller super-toshley :O

probably the best rogue card ever made tbh, and its about time.

Heck its probably one of the best cards in the whole game right now.

Basically a guaranteed 3 for 1 for 6 mana or less. Im blown away. Works with miracle decks, works with malygos decks, probably works very well in any minions based decks too.

10/10

Sjow's card delayed because he queued for a match 2min before reveal time and got matched vs CW lol.

I think that guy is bad by a little before you account for Rogue cheap spell synergy which is probably enough to make him good

im on the hype train join me CHOO CHOO klaxxi CHOO CHOO
