If you use innervate with 10 mana you don't gain any, you have to use at least 2 first and then innervate. That was easily the best thing about druid combo, watching shitters innervate-FoN-Savage roar, pause for a minute, and then concede

I'd go second SI over Harvest Golem. You have enough deathrattles already for N'Zoth, and I feel like the consistency from running 2 in the deck is needed.

Are Bladed Cultists working for you? I never found good use for them in my Rogue decks. Rather run something else like Thalnos or Farseer.

>>140893531
That would be C'Thun decks. Are you playing wild? Hunters are only good in wild.

C'thun cant possibly be cancerous since its basically the no1 expansion gimmick. I mean, of course there will be C'thun decks around at least until the next adventure

>>140895748
C'thun druid.

>>140894598
By far the best expansion. RNG not really being the deciding factor for a lot of games, Forbidden spells are really well designed, almost every class has a strong deck, no face decks, no meta defining legendaries aside from the one everyone has, every play feels like it has impact now instead of feeling bad for removing the shredder that pops up every game, and all archetypes are clearly present in the meta.

>>140895748
I don't know man, Zoo is like synonymous with cancer, like it's been the go to meta cancer for years. It almost doesn't feel right calling it a cancer when by now it's pretty much just a part of the game. I think when you describe cancer you want that contrast, the freshest and most horrid of cancer. I really don't even see that many c'thun decks in the ladder anyways, but what you will see, is that like 60% of the deck composition is some form of aggro shaman cancer. If i had to take a pick from my assortment of hot piping ass pain it would be aggro shaman.

Are rogue and priest the only classes without bullshit tier stuff like evolution, divine shield spam, 7/7 4 drops, 4-10 4 drops, infinite armor cthuns, etc

You know the game is broken when even mages take more skill to play compared to everyone except rogue and priest

I don't really like this new meta. Everyone is just playing c'thun decks or aggro. It's better than the old one but now there are so many play on curve and win decks and trying to play anything else is just asking to lose. I'm already so fucking sick of c'thun and it's 90% of the decks I play against. Now we get to have everyone curve out with the exact same minions! Oh boy!

I have 14k dust lying around.

Wat do. I wanted to make N'Zoth heal Pala. But aggro faggots and priest fuck it hard, right?

What about 2 Rogue decks? I could make Miracle and Deathrattle.

>>140898074
I feel like control style decks got even worse because midrange is so insane now and removal/board clears that aren't brawl just can't keep up. There are just way too many strong threats one after another. If you're not playing a proactive deck and they curve out you're just done. It fucking sucks

>>140897961
I'm currently running a Fatigue Mage deck with Reno/Elise/le meme god of random spells and so far it's been pretty good

>>140897320
The ladder system is to blame for that. Since everybody starts at 16 or below, it becomes a grind every single season. The incentive to climb the ladder as fast as possible is to play aggro because, your games are shorter and able to win more games over time. The ladder reset is the issue here. It would be better if players who made legend stay in legend, or everybody just go down 5 ranks from where they were when the season ended, instead of sending everybody back close to the beginning.

>>140896958
You could play Reno N'zoth C'thun like me and have the time of your life

>>140898293
I've played a fair bit of N'zoth paladin. Aggro's a bit of a mixed bag, I run infested tauren to help blunt them a little, but yeah, priest is a rough matchup, especially if they entomb good deathrattles like sylvanas and cairne.

>tfw my favorite deck bloodlust shaman is now fun again
Evolve Midrange Bloodlust shaman, hype as fuck

>>140898293
If you run double Forbidden Healing and good Taunts like Cyclopian Horror you should be fine.

Priest in general fucks Paladin hard so you just have to try and bait their good removal (Entomb) on lesser targets. Remember they love to take Tirion so they'll always hold onto Entomb for him, if you have multiple bombs in hand you should play them immediately after a card gets Entombed for the highest chance of it sticking to the board.
Since Priests are missing Lightbomb now you shouldn't really have any issues winning after pulling off N'Zoth

>>140897591
If you spent your dust on something else, like many people did, and don't have enough to craft them again, guess what? You have to crack open Classic packs again, or save up dust.

You're still stupid.

>>140898709
I tried out loyan's bloodlust shaman but I think that fucker got lucky or something. Way too many times I've come up against decks that pack a ton of taunt and it doesn't have any burn. A few games ago I had a druid at 2 health and he dropped that new vanilla 6/8 taunt and I lost because I had no way to get through it. Needs earth shocks and burn.

>>140898692
Probably c'thun priest. Trying to play control priest nowadays is just asking to get destroyed by c'thun druids

>>140897917
Well, I was thinking of patron when I said that.

Spending your DE dust before the meta settles is the one thing you could do that's more retarded than not dusting nerfed cards in the first place.

Juggler was known to still be good the day after wotog dorpped so literally everyone with just an ounce of willpower crafted them back right there because they didn't spend their dust on LE EBIN NEW CARDS that probably turned out to be the shitty ones.

You're still retarded

>>140898871

Because I couldn't get much luck out of it either. Could had just been I was too used to other variations

>>140899527
But if the c'thun player has any board you just lose anyway. They drop 20+ damage onto your board and then their minions just kill you anyways. Brain dead as fuck and now only requires 1 card.

>>140899527
Not him but C'thun decks are really boring and not fun at all to play against. The fucking epitome of the curve out to win boring midrange playstyle, and multiple classes get to play it.
I'm so glad they make up 50+% of the meta now. Fun!

If Juggler is still good, then why even disenchant him? It really calls you card evaluation skills into question when you hit the DE button because, you thought losing that 1 attack made him unplayable. The only cards that should have been dusted are Arcane Golem, Master of Disguise, and maaaaaaaybe Blade Flurry and Keeper of the Grove.

There's a few cards that say "You win the game" on them. One of the most egregious (and thus banned in a lot of formats) is coalition victory.

The opposite would be "target opponent loses the game" which is seen on Door to Nothingness http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=288992

There's also cards that prevent winning or losing, such as Platinum Angel http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=401640

I'm building a N'Zoth Pally right now and I'm kinda curious if I should run him.
On one hand, having a 6/6 for 5 mana is pretty good because it can trade with every Standard 5 drop and notable things like Twin Emps. It also trades with Sylvanas well due to the Deathrattle being beneficial to your opponent and it leaving Healbot with 1 health.
But if you run 2 then you're giving your opponent 16 health worth of healing and 32 if you get both off N'Zoth.
Is it worth it being a removal target for the stats?

I'm also wondering if I should be building N'Zoth lists more like Midrange with notable minions like Twilight Summoner, Tirion, Sylvanas, Infested Tauren, etc.
Or should I go more Control with double Doomsayer and Equality/Pyro?

Why is this allowed?

>>140900694
Stuff like hedron alignment, felidar sovereign, triskaidekaphobia, and loads of others I don't know about if you mean "cards that say you win instantly if you meet their requirements" but magic allows you to counter most spells, meaning that those instant win conditions can be stopped in play and there's at least one card (platinum angel) that outright prevents any sort of win until it's killed.

Also there are loads of combinations where you can instantly kill an opponent that aren't "you lose the game explicitly right now" but are "you will die if you don't counter, kill, or exile certain cards on the board right this instant." Very slight difference.

I don't see why you say he's not playable.

>>140902334
Because it requires you to win a literal coin flip and start with two specific cards in your hand?

Also because Mage is overpowered, because it gets the best spells in a game where there is no interaction with, and barely any counter to, spells.

You don't really, pray you get a good starting curve and they don't draw into too much removal, don't flood the board or leave it vulnerable to consecrate, nova's, circle of death etc. Hold onto your spells and win conditions for bursting them in the face for lethal when you can't get past taunts or anything on the board.

I dont understand the pool, is it to update our memes or something?

>>140902978
You're missing the point to what I'm saying. Why wouldn't you disenchant a card in the first place when you know you're getting a full refund?

>>140902771
>death knight is deep red
i feel like they should have made him teal

>>140903262
I've played all my share of Miracle before Standard, giving it a time for now

>>140903284
Yeah, it's for a virtual soccer league. Our memes are stale and a year old. We need new ones. We also get songs that play if the memes score/win games.

For some reason, I recognize the card color identity when I see them, but put the color alone and I dont know which is which anymore.

>not being legend already with a homebrewed deck while fucking someone's mom and being too drunk to play properly

I'm looking at warrior right now m8
The cards are brown with yellow/green embellishment. Not fucking salmon

That's not how you play this matchup you fool!

You're color blind. Warrior has and always will be brown.

Even that's the most salmon "tan" I've ever seen

But anyway, that says you're wrong too, unless you somehow reason that tan is brown.

>>140903692
It's paladin. Priest is yellow, I guess.

>>140903692
Paladin.

>people honestly play C'Thun Control Warrior

For what reason?

The best way to play control in Hearthstone is NOT to run a bunch of vanilla River Crocolisks. You'll just lose to any actual control list.

>Paladin is pink
Jesus christ this is a meme chart
No wonder WoW is dying, blizzard couldn't even get their colors right.

Ooze or Harrison in N'Zoth Pally?

I'm running Harry currently, but I always either overdraw when museuming doomhammer or get put ahead in fatigue against warriors.

tan is light brown.

With aggro shaman you kind of need to close the game out soon, like they need to be dead or near death by turn 7. Otherwise you start to fizzle against their lategame. Usually you want to watch their hand and the removals they've been using, and make sure they already used a couple frostbolts earlier for example. What I try to do is make sure I have an equally threatening target out on the field at the same time like a flametongue or a flamewreath, so when they ignore one they're getting punished. Ideally you want to hide it behind a taunting totem, spirit wolves or a vagina taunt monster.
Most likely unless you have board you're not going to play it. Personally whenever I get board control I play it, even if i could be pushing out more pressure by playing more threats that turn, but in that case you've just got make sure you can answer their potential threats next turn, but if you get that balance just right you'll run away with the game having that double card draw ontop of your board control. I don't know It'll take some practice and getting used to.

You're too right.

>>140903842
By this logic paladin and death knight are interchangeable because pink is just a light tone of red.

>>140903590
I am playing ranked

>>140903714
I saw that total but thought it was only for the ranked matches - I played casual when I just started.

Thanks though
