Yogg going badly for your opponent can be funny/interesting or even beneficial. Dr Boom going bad was just 9/9 stats and 2 damage for 7 mana which is still dumb.
If we have to have a controversial oppressive legendary around at least Yogg is fun to watch. Sucks when you lose but at least it's suspenseful. You get to root for astral communion instead of rooting against a boom bot killing an azure drake.
I disagree as I explained before when your opponent plays boom you can still beat that. Before things might get out of hand he passes his turn and you can react. Maybe you can set up beneficial trades, minimize the boom bot impact or just go face and try to race. There is, strategy, decision making and skill involved.
Sure he was a huge power spike but that's all he was.
People were all up in arms about a deck with a super high skill cap that had super oppressive uninteractive turns but yogg is ok because it comes with fun animations and has a super low skill cap?
Sorry I just don't get it.
