    Some common FAQ:
    1. X Y or Z was good in Arena. I bet it was! Card changes whether they be buffs, nerfs or reworks aren't made with Arena in mind. I also did not discuss them with Arena in mind. 😂
    2. I'm sorry I physically hurt so many of you with my pronunciation of Addled Grizzly 😭
    3. "Relevant play" for this video was determined by the card being in a top meta deck, those of which you'd typically see on a meta report, for more than a small enough time to no longer be dismissed as experimentation. I'm sure you could hit legend with decks built around any of these cards. 😅

If you could somehow generate 32 thousand non-token permanents, you’d just be allowed to have those(assuming the client didn’t crash).
      And of course in paper, you don’t have to worry about the client crashing or token limits, so anything goes. Have a creature that made a copy of itself whenever you play a land (Magic’s version of a mana crystal), including the ability to copy itself, and then manage to throw… let’s say… 12 lands on the battlefield? 2,176,782,336 creatures.

      I do think they should buff Tyrantus even further though, but 4 mana draw a beast and double its health + 6 mana summon it from your hand might be a little bit unfun in certain matchups.
      This made me think up a combo with stranded beach whale (or whatever the 4 20 from the new set is). Use these two cards, then use Hozen Healer + Crazed Alchemist for the OTK next turn.

    Warhorse trainer was INSANE in twist when it was around. It togheter with quatermaster made the dude package so much worth it, also this card was definitely stronger of the two. This dude package is what made palladin so strong also, so without this single card i would argue palladin would see litlle play in twist. It was semi permanent savage roar with a very good body and annoying taunts.

    Funny thing about the last two: it actually kinda messes with the Tombs of Terror solo adventure, specifically the Khartut’s Tomb. In that chapter, there’s a tomb that can summon random big deathrattles, and with some of the infinite value ones (specifically Anub), it can either a) create non-games when a player generates a minion for free, or even worse b) create a soft lock with certain anomalies, like the one that says a hero is immune while they control a minion. If both players end up with an Anub in such a scenario, it makes it nearly impossible for the game to end… yeah, I learned about this first hand, why do you ask? It’s not like one of the main reasons I keep coming back to this game is to play that chapter over and over…

    Tyrantus' taunt keyword could be seen as a nerf because before it was a minion that was hard to get rid of even if it wasn't strong, but now it could just be smacked by any minion, it's iffy since it isn't good in the first place, but taunt is a give and take

  • @joeyghostx
    @joeyghostx 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    So as a Naxxramus player, the Ball of Spiders had 2 things:
    Deathrattles were very rare value cards since we were still in a Vanilla card era like Yugioh before powerscaling.
    The second reason is we had Beast activators in Hunter that worked really well with Ball of Spiders. The issue is that everything now has an effect just like Yugioh, so Ball of Spiders has alot less power scalling now since we are past the Quest era of Ungoro

  • @legitsalt
    @legitsalt 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +35

    Annoying pronunciation correction is annoying; I believe that in "addled grizzly" the "addle" is pronounced similar to "paddle" without the "p," i.e., the verb "addle" is being used to describe the grizzly and when modifying it as the receiver of the action (think "frustrate" --> "frustrated"), "addle" transforms into "addled."
    Irregardless, great video!

    2:06 simple mana theory (back when there was one applied) 3 mana to play the 3 1/1's, 1 mana to draw/create each one of them. Considering that you also get 3 random beasts back it was a card worth its mana. Just that being worth your mana is and was never strong. Especially in hunter, too slow you know.

    @Smonsequenses 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Just want to immediately note that when analyzing a card like Flame Lance, going 'it's bad because you could just play Assassinate or Shadow Word: Death instead' is kinda weird to me, like the answer is obviously no, these cards are from other classes? What is much more relevant is that for one less mana you have Fireball which does a little less damage but can go face, or Polymorph which is honestly just the much better card as it negates death rattles. Plus, at the time BGH was 3 mana, so dealing with 8 health card that also has 8 attack like any giant is something you can do for 3 mana. Regardless, the reason a class card is bad is never ever because another class can do it better, especially in these early sets when classes could not do everything very well. Mage just happened to already have better spot removal, better than both assasinate and sw:d as well.

    If I could give some (unsolicited) feedback, the commentary on individual cards did feel a bit long in this video? There were a few points where it admittedly felt like the nail was already in, and the hammer kept hitting it, if that makes sense.
    Anyway, would like to see you do some sort of video on Twist, before it (nonsensically) goes away again in a week and a half! 😃

      Some decks would, but not the top dogs that do powerful things with really low curves. A Renethal pile like priest may chuck a 4 mana 10 10 in. Likely wouldn’t do a 6 att 15 health tho unless inner fire stuff 🤣

  • @kamiferno9460
    @kamiferno9460 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I think a number of these are pretty misleading, most notably the lack of distinction you have put for wild and standard's formats. There is a solid argument a number of these cards in their buffed state would see play in standard now/at the time they were buffed or a bit earlier.
    An overwhelming number of the cards you have put on this list where from the twist buffs happened, which placed cards in awkward situations of having to be good enough in wild but not broken in twist. Many of them simply happened to buff some of the most historically worst cards and give them a second chance, and others a "catchup" to what used to be a good card.
    The card you did put in this list that has existed in standard since its buff, Ball of Spiders, saw play in token hunter throughout the deck's lifespan in Whizbang according to Vicious Syndicate reports and most HSGuru decklists. For being here for an expansion and some change, its done well and the buff was impactful.

    Shadow Word: Death was 3 mana at the time of The Grand Tournament, but Flame Lance was still laughably bad on release. To be fair, most cards in The Grand Tournament were absolutely garbage on release. (Ball of Spiders, Warhorse Trainer, Poisoned Blade, Knight of The Wild, Anub'arak were all from TGT, and that was just mentioned in this video.)
    Also, fun trivia! Journey to Un'Goro's cinematic didn’t have a song, and a reddit thread reached gained enough traction to cause Ben Brode, the lead game designer at the time to write and perform his own rap for Journey to Un'Goro.

  • @symraynor
    @symraynor 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The point is this: they can buff all the cards they want. The Wild meta will always be dominated by aggro decks (Pirate Rogue, Even Shaman, etc.). So, you never get to turn 6-7.
    The only way to make the game more diverse and give meaning to the buffs is to limit aggro decks, for example by increasing the initial health. But Blizzard will never do this because the kids playing on their phones while sitting on the toilet want 4-minute games. Just enough time for a quick bathroom break.

    What's fun is some of these changes happened but we're never given support because of a format that no longer exists. I miss duels. Even if the cards mentioned here were some of the most TOXIC cards in duels. Imagine a hero power where for 3 mana you get two silver hands. Imagine having a treasure that could make them all permenantly be 3/3. And then add in the fury of "haha, they all have taunt now".
    They couldn't give more cards to make that deck stronger in duels. So standard oddly suffers for it.
    Thing is, it's so simple to ban cards for duels. They did it all the time but noooooo we can't have nice things. Had to are the format even though people were playing it after the update until we all got booted from the server. I still miss the format. I still want it back.

    • @robertlupa8273
      @robertlupa8273 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Fun fact: Poisoned Blade's effect is likely a reference to how Rogue's Hero Power used to work all the way back in alpha? Beta? It equipped a 1/2 Dagger, or gave your weapon +1 Attack if you already had a weapon. I think it was considered too "unfun" (maybe not even "broken") to play against, because of... Assassin's Blade I guess. Early HS was a whole different beast.
