    Very happy about this, today i litterally only faced demon hunters, it was ridiculous.

    At first i ranked up quickly from rank 4 to rank 1 with galak warlock, with a winning streak, basically farming them; i was pretty sure that my deck hard countered them;

    after that i guess my mmr increased or people got better at using DH or just were using better list, i started losing a lot of games despite even teching a couple more cards to beat them.

    The class is absurdly broken, there is no denying it, the fact that they are going to nerf it already is a proof of how insanely broken it is.

    It made the first day of the rotation really a miserable experience, playing like 20 games versus only one class (and a broken one, at that) is something that should never happen, good thing they are going to nerf demon hunter right away (it raises some questions about why they release it in this state in the first place tho)

    Luna's pocket galaxy is the worst thing ever, can't wait for it to leave standard.

    Great article! 

    The meta right now looks a lot better than before, there is even room for some experimentations. 

    Losing Leeroy, while i think is actually an healthy card in some decks to have a closure, is one of the best things ever happened. Especially when was drawn by galakrond in warrior or rogue was too much of a bs.

    The fact that embiggen druid is losing steam is also nice, don't like a deck that if it has the right card on turn 2 wins the game otherwise losts.

    I'm just not to happy about highlander mage seeing more play, luna's pocket galaxy is so stupid, but luckily it will rotate soon. The amazing Reno and puzzle box are cards that i think should exists in the game but not be constructed viable in a high tier deck, but i have to say that i can stand those 2 cards much better than luna's pocket.

    Now a question, in the article its said that quest hunter is still played, but i feel that losing leeroy is too much for this deck (one of the few cases were i think leeroy was healthy, leeroy gave the burst to end the game but the opponent was still able to play around it) because leeroy into unleash into heropower was the way to close a game. Someone that is still playing it can tell how is performing?

    EDIT: nevermind about the question, i've just read that the play rate of the deck has indeed go down severely; can't say how i missed that part

    Inner demon gives Zephrys a way to kill your opponent if they have 8 life and no taunt on the board, before opponent needed to be at 7 or lower health, or needed to have no minions on the board for avenging wrath. I don't see this card taking a spot in a constructed deck.

    Sightless watcher is very good, and i'd say an autoinclude, unless you are playing a big demon deck or something like that. I think the card is very good but not OP, maybe the fact that it will be an autoinclude will be a problem in the future. 

    Altruis is strong too, especially in a deck with low cost cards that is already good with the outcast mechanic. 

    Nethrandamus is a card that requires a good number of minion diyng in your side, but DM seems to have a couple of cards that generates rush minions so i don't think it will be that hard to reach a good power. We have to see if those decks will be good, if they will this card will be a powerful finisher, kinda similar to Alexstrsza DQ

    It sucks so much when your opponent is the master of topdecking already, now this card even rewards them for doing so

    If it is a beast is probably an hunter card, if it is a demon is probably a demon hunter card; if it is neither of them, good luck

    EDIT: i actually realized this is an hunter card only after i commented

    Very good tempo card, i can see this card basically played in almost all decks, similar to zilliax. 

    Making an opponent's minion "vanish" for 2 turns and putting a 4/3 on the board is very strong for 4 mana.

    The effect can be used on your minions too, so it has some combo potential. 

    Or you can use to one of your minions if you feel that your board is already pretty strong and want some protection from an upcoming boardclear.

    Versatile and good

    As always Wronchi videos are too funny, there are a lot of catchphrases, and Malfurion annoyed by demon hunters is fun because in reality is impossible to be already annoyed by them as that class isn't playable yet.

    The pun of winged guardian taunting Illidian by referring to how bad his card is, is hilarious. 

    Oh, about the card, i don't want to talk about the card

    Well, to be honest, there are ways to build around this and people are just theorizing them, i'm not entirely sure why you responded to my post and not one of those. 

    I was just saying that isn't worth it, and is at best played as it is, which i don't think is good to begin with. 

    For what we know, maybe the other cards will support this one

    What do you want for 8 mana? Ideally you want to clear opponent's board and set up lethal for the following turn, this card does exactly that.

    There are ways to tutor both version of the card, with one of them improving it immensly (Scavenger's Ingenuity).

    The base form is nothing special, still a rush minion is always useful; for this card is especially nice as you can kill it without opponent having a chance to silence it or steal it.

    To be honest i'm not even sure i'd play a 6 mana 6/5 with permastealth even if it existed as a card of its own.

    The fact that you have to draw Akama, let Akama die, then draw the Prime and play it feels a bit too clunky for a reward that is nice but maybe not worth it.

    At least the 3 mana 3/4 with stealth is a nice minion on its own, so maybe the card will see play not as a build around but just as another treath.

    Pretty good card. 

    I really like this one, is powerful and yet you can still play around it, which means a nice improvement in the gameplay.

    this is a good example of a very well designed card in my opinion

    While i don't think that the effect is that good and generally i don't value much minions that take time after you play them before they do stuffs, the fact that this card only cost 2 mana makes me to not dislike this card that much, because the tempo loss is not that heavy.
