A Minute of silence for all those, who were opening a pack with legendary inside, and it was Hemmit 😟
EDIT: *Hemet
Commander_Pro Herbert*
I OPENED HIM TODAY T-T T-T A MINUTE OF SILENCE FOR ME ;-; (And 2 tree of lifes)
Thank you, i still cry every night because of opening him
at least his stats are not as shit as kidnapper's
You guys are such pessimists, ogre warmaul has 50% chance to attack wrong target, but look at it from other perspective, it has 50% chance to hit right target
Keepo
Also you can combo Hemet with Tinkmaster overspark, so you kill your own minions for more value
god kripp said this card is bad, so it is.
Trinax11 Because obviously everything Kripp says is so true that everyone else's opinion means shit.
Here's how I use Ogre Warmail: Dreaded Corsair and Ogre. Occasionally I end up with Ogre plus two free Dreaded Corsair on the board. It's not bad, it's just random and you only really need one in your deck if you feel like using it. Its probability can be controlled to an extent.
It will on average hit one time correctly so you can think of it as a 3 mana 4/1 weapon
The word on the street is that Hemet will be a hard counter to the new Tinkmaster token paladin meta, I already crafted myself a golden copy.
I'm going to have this video play when I am being lowered into the ground at my funeral.
So kripp can let you down one more time?
ayy lmao ayy lmao intensifies
ayy lmao Ayy lmao!
ayy lmao Yik Yak
so how many accounts did you have to make for that joke to work?
When my friends say hemet is useless
I say: 400 dust aint useless
Not funny mate. You aren't a comedian.
Fatb0ybadb0y So are you FatBoy. Only Im not fat.
The Grinch Fatness can be fixed by exercising, your ugliness and attitude are beyond hope though
Tomato-Intro creator Well, at some point somebody is so fat (like you) that a lifetime of exercise cant fix it. Also, the fact that I have a hot girlfriend, means that although Im ugly, I have a beautiful attitude in reality.
Fatb0ybadb0y Alright, you don't have to believe me, as I know It is true. Although, I certainly don't need some saddos approval on the internet.
I think a fair buff to Hemet would be to change the text to:
Batlecry: Destroy a beast. If you don't destroy a beast, gain +2 Health.
It makes it a viable card with good stats even if you don't destroy a beast, and it doesn't get op with 6/5 stats and you kill a beast.
If you don't kill a beast, it has the same stats as Stallag or Feugen, not counting their deathrattles of course.
Blizzard doesn't want tutorial bosses to be playable cards
Danlord GT What about Hogger?
ExileUnlimited it isn't very good tho, the only deck is kind fittable is control hunter but isn't worth.
Rather than kill a beast, Hemet should equip the hero with a weapon (gun), and make it fucking awesome, like a 4/3 or something (just a step down from Ashbringer).
***** But then you would see it in most controls decks, specifically priest and druid for added board control.
It's good to see you again Kripp! You haven't uploaded a video since last year!
You may hate him, but he's the only one who provides consistent content, even on holidays. Thank you Kripp, for giving me something to watch this New Years Day.
I was laughing my ass off so hard when you were describing Hemet and how BGH is up against Ragnaros and Hemet is up against a Fairie dragon or a 1/1 Boar.
The lack of Dunemaul Ogre in this video is astounding.
I forgot about that card....screw Overload on that card.
I dont believe there should be bad cards in the game. If all the cards were to be good people had more choices of making different exciting decks since they can only pick 30 cards. i really think blizzard should buff cards like nozdormu and hemet so that they are at least usable. Why don't they do that? If nozdormu for example is as good as ysera then players have to make decision to chose only one of them right? as it is, these cards just suck and they are just fillers, it should not be this way.
And I believe there should be no wars.
That's just naive, every decent TCG/CCG has bad cards, you can't balance them all
The reason is so people can have the option to make fun decks. Some cards many used to consider bad such as flare are now used in constructed hunters same with antique healbot it's used in priest the point is to make the game enjoyable compared to just having all good cards with very little variety
Buffing some cards makes others useless. It's impossible to make every card viable.
Read this, it's really great even though it's about MTG: archive.wizards.com/Magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=mtgcom/daily/mr5
These videos are why I watch Kripp. Theory-crafting and talking from experience is fucking excellent. Thanks Kripp.
IMO, Cobra Shot is probably worse than most of these cards. I just don't understand what blizzard was thinking when they made it. It's a dark bomb, but it costs 3 mana more just to deal 3 damage to the enemy hero, that's INSANE! It probably wouldn't even see play if it would cost 3 mana lol
Who's watching in 2016?

Greetings from 2017
I had no legendaries at all and then I saved up for gvg packs. Had 26 + 3(Bonus) Packs to open. I found 2 legendaries: Fucking Hemet and Gallywix.
GG
Gallywix guy is really good though
Med1umentor
do you know a good deck with him?
Alex GoesNuts he would be good in any midrange rogue deck, i think... But now, i don't know. Long time ago, miracles completely eliminate midrange decks. Now here is chance of revival, when miracles takes the deathblow, but i'm not really sure.
Alex GoesNuts Lol Gallowyx is shit.. I got him and blingtron in my initial GvG packs that I opened and I dusted those fuckers.
Ruben Robles
what so shit about 5/8 for 6 mana? Moreover, he can give you really powerfull spell, or restrict opponent from using them. It's not the best legendary here, but definetely not the shit...
Well... It is, if you just don't play rogue class, but for entirely different reason.
Welcome to the 301+ club, how many spongebob references can you make?
I can see what you're saying about Hemet, but think of this. This card most of the time trades with highmane, the best hunter card. Kill 6/5 and then both 2/2s trade into it. Sure thats a best case scenario. If this was a 6/5 it would see play.
I'm surprised that the 1/4 with charge and taunt (I don't even remember how is it called because it sucks) and the 4/1 with spell damage for 4 mana aren't in the list.
I tried to make Shadowbomber work in a burst priest deck, together with Leper Gnome, Mind Blast, some rushy mechs and Auchenai+Zombie Chow. Didn't work out often, but when it did, it was fun^^.
As it turned out, Shadowbomber is pretty great in my Aggro Priest. Play him early to rush your enemy down or play him late for burst damage to finish him off. SB + double Mindblast = 12 Damage to face for 5 Mana.
Hemet Nesingwary can be useful in a hunter heavy meta. Basically it snipes Highmanes which are often played on turn 5/6 by hunter. So it might be worth keeping for scenario when the whole ladder goes hunter mode. The worst case scenario for it (aside from AoE which are always bad) will usually be exchanging this creature for a 2 mana card, which basically puts you 3 mana back tempo-wise. You can live through that. But killing Savannah Highmane/Gahz'rilla/The Beast/King Krush/Core Hound for 5 mana AND having a 6/3 residue is a good deal (and hunter gets these cards often from webspinners).
Hemet Nesingwary was the first and only legendary I got from opening GvG packs. And he was inside the 3 free packs.
=(
I find usage of Shadowbomber in a priest heal deck. It lets me get early Light of Naaru out and gives me a target to heal for my early Lightwardens. The extra reach of 6 damage that also puts a minion on the field is useful too.
I remember them talking about some internal GVG testing and they said some Beast themed deck was really OP. Although if they were talking about some crappy Druid of the Fang combo deck or maybe control hunter I've yet to see either of those deck types do anything but fail on the ladder. Could explain why Hemet is so overcosted.
Hemet is also okay to have against Druid, since Druid of the Claw transforms into Beasts now. Granted, that still makes him bad against 7 classes, excluding stray Stranglethorn Tigers and Stampeding Kodos. But I suppose more classes might be getting random beast synergy in the future to make him somewhat viable. GvG already released random Murloc synergy for Shaman that I don't think too many people would have expected, so maybe we'll see some beast synergy with Warrior, Priest, or Mage or something.
You know, thinking about it, Hemet Nesingwary might be trying to tell us something. I know at least in Magic, and other card games might do this as well, they'll usually put something in sets to hint at what the next set will be about. So one set they'll throw in a couple of cards with enchantment synergy, but then not that many enchantments, but then the next set will be filled to the brim with enchantments. They could be telling us that the next set might be themed around beasts, and that we'll be seeing a lot more beasts coming in the future, so that Hemet might actually be useful.
i see you're point, but hearthstone isn't like many other card games, nor should it be. it doesn't even have that many cards when you think about it (especially in terms of what's in the meta). there we're no hints to upcoming naxx or GvG cards, so why would they start doing stuff like that now? there are really only a few cards outside of each expansion that synergized extremely well with the new cards.
making a shit card now in preparation for this new meta trend is just ridiculous. Hearthstone doesn't have enough cards to pull this kind of stunt off, and even if the meta did shift gears the card would simply get nerfed like everything else (im talking about unleash the hounds, leeroy, starving buzzard, soulfire, etc)
Well Hearthstone is still a very young game, so anything is possible, really
***** it is, which is why it has only so few cards. so one of my points is every card kind of has to count as of right now because there are only so few. blizzard could pull off stunts like this when there is a sizeable enough card base where one expansion doesn't disrupt the entire meta.
you mentioned magic, magic does indeed foreshadow upcoming sets with their cards, but the meta in magic (magic doesn't really have that strict of a meta anyways) doesn't shatter after another set comes out. i'm excluding the standard format because that restricts card use, and there is no form of restriction in hearthstone yet besides class cards
Hemet was put in because beasts were supposed to be made more powerful with this expansion and everyone is bitching about Hunters all the time. He's bad because he was executed poorly, either in favour of flavour or because the devs are just bad at making card games. It's that simple.
I use shadowbomber for a deck with higher mana requirements. It's good to be able to do damage from start, and the next turn be able to heal yourself if you have no other 2 mana cards in hand. I find it usefull many times. I've also been able to win using this card directly to face.
Hemet is only shit right now because Hunters don't use beasts. Who knows, maybe a Hunter deck with huge beasts will be the new cancer in a year.
If they start using huge beasts, people will just put big game hunter not hemet
Mirza Ajanovic BGH can't kill anything with less than 7 attack, where Highmane is quite notable.
Hurr Durr cruel task master, dark iron dwarf, and sergeant can all force them into BGH range if they really need to be, or use other hard removal
Siorn who runs those cards though? CTM is ran in warrior decks, and the other two in zoo, but in what world do you run sergeant in priest, warrior or any other class?
Less common ever since buzzard became useless.
Target dummy can combo well with Cobalt Guardian since Cobalt Guardian isn't summoned with it's own Divine Shield.
That's how I use it
Once i got owned in arena by a paladin who buffed his Flying Machine with Blessing of Wisdom, Blessing of Might, Blessing of Kings and Hand of Protection while my start was subpar and lacked removal. It was so painful.
Shadowbomber would be slightly better if it was 4 damage. At least then it would have synergy with light of the naaru.
Agree on most of it. Ogre Warmaul,however...I think has some possibilities:
- When there's only one target to hit (hero)
- You decide when to attack with it, so... you can attack with minions first to make sure your attack comes out good or ideal instead of *_urk-plsOMGkillme!_*
Other notes:
- I don't think it'd ever be viable to run 2 in a deck
- it's absolutely true that it's a horrible turn 3-play
- it's 8 dmg for 3 mana. If you're controlling the board, that's a lot of dmg for little mana on one card. Of course... having conditional cards isn't ideal.
I've use the Ogre Warmaul in a Weaponwarrior Deck and it's a decent weapon. If the board is clear, it's four damage to the face and since that count's as a turn on which the Warmaul did not hit the wrong target you can be somewhat sure it won't hit the right target next turn and act accordingly.
It's certainly not an extremely reliable and god weapon but it is fun and has it's moments.
My first legendary was a Tink master overspark.
I've used it about 3 times. all of them ended with turning an opponents moster into a 5/5.
I disenchanted it a few minutes later after realizing how shit it is.
Flying Machine + Cold Blood deserved some kind of a mention, I think, it's a far more practical combo for a 5/4 with Windfury for 4 mana... sounds far better than target dummy and even all the other cards, combined.
I just absolutely love his dry humour - he's brilliant at delivery and doesn't even realise it
I don't agree on two things, the ogre warmaul is not to bad if you lack weapon and hemet can hit druid cards aswell.
Kripp, have you considered the use of flying machine in a hobgoblin deck, i got destroyed by this car din ladder i dunno just something to consider.
Okay, what? ....Warmaul is one of the main advantage cards in my warrior deck. At least half the time I play second on that deck, I use a coin on turn 2, use the weapon, and slap on the 3/3 pirate taunt. This weapon synergizes incredibly well with pirates and even when it comes to hitting things, it tends to let me hit what I wanted it to.
And the shadowbomber is actually a 1 mana drop on purpose. How many times did it happen that on turn 2 you got nothing to play AND nothing to heal with hero ability, hm? That minion gives you advantage because the 3 damage you take is less significant from the 3 damage other classes take maybe with exception of high-healing paladin or druid decks.
Although there are a few uses for it (Über control, maybe, dunemaul shaman is really hard to use if your opponent has even a single minion on the board. Maybe if it had one more health and one less attack...)
Don't worry, he was educated on the value of Hemet in arena.
i have one flying machine in my rouge deck it can be pretty beast with tinker's or coldblood. The 4 health and seemingly harmlessness usually makes it so it is one of the only windfury's that actually will live for its first attack.
Definitely agree with the warrior weapon Ogre Warmaul. Maybe if it had an additional charge, maybe, just maybe it would be semi-ok.
I've actually had luck comboing the Ogre Warmaul with Dread Corsair (a 4 cost 3/3 pirate with taunt). I've even been able to play it on turn 2 with the coin.
I lost a warlock game when the warmaul passed my same taunt two turns in a row and hit my face, stopping me from tapping and letting him get crazy card advantage. Sometimes it fucks up in just the right way
I think Hemet would be far more viable and interesting if it was more related with his "hunting" quests. Lets say it still only removes beasts, but in return, it gives you a weapon. For casual scrub beasts, you get the Nessingway Elek gun, but for a legendary beast, you get the Nessingway 4000. Stats of those weapons could be made to ballance, and since nessingway effectively gives you removal and weapon, they can keep/nerf its stats if they wanna.
Ogre Warmaul and Shadowbomber are FAAAAAR from being the worst GvG card. Have you ever seen a cobra shot in constructed maybe :P? There are many other cards which sucks. But I totally agree with the rest of the list though. Great vid Kripp Hipp
The 1/4 minion Flying Machine + Divine Blessing and Inner Fire is probably the only creature that can deal 16dmg with that combo (if it doesn't get killed or silenced). But I agree that it's still quite bad on it's own.
I'm pretty sure the idea behind the priests Shadow bomber is your ability to restore that health.
I haven't really tried Target Dummy but I do feel like it can be decent and quite helpful in a few situations.
Either than that, I agree.
P.S: Gnomish experimenter is really bad (unless your deck is spell oriented) especially in arena where you're way more likely to pick the most valuable minions.
For Some reason I can't actually see any video, but audio is fine. I checked other videos on your channel and they work fine. Any idea why?
easy fix for Hemet: Battlecry: Destroy a CREATURE. Makes him the bigger brother of Big Game Hunter that way and a legendary that specialises in killing other legendaries. And it would already have countering cards, mostly Deathrattles with some really negative stuff you dont want to launch. And like Big Game Hunter, he would die superfast after his battlecry anyway.
What if instead of the battlecry, Hemet Nesingwary was invincible while attacking? The whole "Lone-Range" mechanic would make sense. As well, it still dies to 3 damage even it's first attack (a la Darkbomb) so cards like Sludge Belcher still compete for the 5 slot. With something like Dr. Boom romping around, that won't be too overpowered.
The Hemit dream is over. Rest in Pepperonis Nesingwarrino.
They should change the battlycry on Hemet to "Kill a Dragon". Still not great, but at least it would have some niche application where it can actually be useful, like when there are a lot of decks with Ysera or Alex.
The reason why cards like hemmet nesingwary exists is because all the cards in HS are based of things in the warcraft universe, with the legendaries being specific known characters. They want the cards to match their warcraft equivalents, and so they make cards that have really wierd effects
Some cards I was surprised were not on the list: cobra shot, mini mage, gnomeregan infantry
Everyone: Nerf Harvest Golem.
Blizzard: No!
Everyone: Nerf Cairne Bloodhoof.
Blizzard: No!
(Hunter at the very very bottom of the ladder, receiving least play, least occurring class in tournaments)
(months later, Haunted Creeper, Webspinner and Undertaker are released)
Everyone: Nerf Hunter.
Blizzard: Okay!
(Blizzard nerf Starving Buzzard)
Everyone: Nerf Undertaker.
Blizzard: No!
(months later, Feign Death, Piloted Shredder, Piloted Sky Golem and Sneed's Old Shredder are released)
Got millhouse in a pack, then hemet in the next one.
Kill me.
Mulhouse is not a good card yet I love him
Mustard0981 Milhouse isn't as bad as you think. If you can catch your opponent without any spells when you play that card (for example the opponent has only 3 cards left) you can get massive value out of it, plus with the extra 8 mana you can buff it up so it can survive damage spells.
Playing it on turn 2 would force your opponent to waste at least 2 spells (most of the time and IF they have them in their hand) to kill millhouse and this is not really a wasted turn since your opponent had to waste his turn killing Millhouse. This makes it safer for you to play a big creature like a Yeti without any spells in its way. If Millhouse doesn't get removed, then there will be a massive tempo swing since they can't really play any minions otherwise it would be a 2 for 1 and it secures the early game for you. The bad situation to play this would be against a freeze mage or a Druid where they have powerful spells with massive value like Starfire and in the end-phase of a control game.
In conclusion, Millhouse is meant to be used for drawing out removal or gain tempo.
Disenchant Nesingwary though.
Hemet and BGH should have their effects switched, or give hemet a better version of the BGH effect, like 6 or more.
Flying machine is at least a decent card. It's a potential match winner with rogue's Iron Sensei and/or Cold Blood. Or anything that boosts its attack.People will tend ignore it when it's played if you have just about anything else on the board and then you can strike REALLY hard with it.
I've been playing a Mech Warrior Hobgobliny deck. it's by no means the best deck, but I've gotten to rank 5 with it, and it very much feels that it could do better than that. Flying Machine is one of the best cards in that deck :) .
Have you tried flying machine in a spare parts deck? If you add alchemist to that deck too he transforms into an 8 damage minion with the stat swap (or more if you get +1 attack spare parts) or 4 to the face and clear a 4 minion. He's way better than that crappy 1-4 gargoyle and is a windfury minion that stands a chance of living through summoning sickness. I think he's actually okay. As a pure non-combo drop he works out okay vs Paladins.
way to balance hemet. give him 2 health. Or better yet, if he kills a beast, give him +2/+2 which would make him a 5 drop that could theoritically become a 8/5 plus a destroyed beast. He would still be balanced enough in the fact that he wouldn't be good against anyone other than hunters and druids, so he wouldn't be overplayed, but at least he'd have a competeing chance against some other 5 drops.
8/5? I've got the beast in ma' sights...
I have a flying machine OTK (with others windfury) it combos with the hobgoblin and the powermace and it makes really cool combos !
well hemet nessingwarry is am metagame call. because when they released GvG they expected some beast decks because of all the new beast synergy cards and if those got a little out of hand hemmet would come in but Blizzard was wrong and its terrible now.
kind of like a worse loatheb if you think about it.
Well except loatheb will pretty much always be good every deck has spells and it will always be that way
well i said worse loatheb and a lot more decks have a beast than you think.
This is very true, especially now that Druid of the Claw is a beast in both forms. Hemet is likely to have a target against both druids and hunters, if we ever see a metagame environment where those are the two most frequently seen classes (not out of the question since both have had wildly popular netdecks multiple times in the first year) he could immediately jump from weak to being nearly an auto-include.
I just wish they would have pushed his stats a little more. A 5/3 for 4 would probably be fair and would do a lot to make it less of a risky inclusion in decks since it would be easier to find a time to play him against decks without beasts. It still dies to almost everything other than 1-drops and 5 attack is already available in the 4-drop slot on better bodies. Maybe in the next round of card changes they will do something to make him just a tad more attractive.
logan mcvey
You can make decks without spells pretty easily now and there have always been decks with very, very few spells. Minion-heavy decks will only become more common as the card pool grows each year, in addition to more and more competition for 5-drop slots showing up. Even now I don't usually include Loatheb and only rarely find the battlecry to be a serious issue when others play it, a stealth tiger is often far more threatening. We'll probably see a lot less of Loatheb in time. He isn't a bad card by any stretch of the imagination but he's nowhere near as good as his popularity would make it seem either.
I want to discuss about the Priest Deck.... A turn 10, With the legendary Velen, 1 mind blast and 1 shadowbomber, you have a burst to the enemy hero of 16 !
Yes is it maybe a crappy card but the priest can heal himself and u can get some good combo so it's not a useless card.
I think Valen only affects your spells and hero power, not battlecrys.
ah maybe you are right :)
Long time didn't play him ...
I had a Target Dummy and Iron Sensei combo in Tavern Brawl: I played Target Dummy on Turn 1, and then played Iron Sensei, and my Dummy got up to 10-attack 😂
Kripp says that only hunters use beasts, but with GvG Druids have a couple beast synergies now. Along with Malorne. That said this still does not make Hemet a viable card.
And also Druid of the Fang and Malorne can both just be kill by BGH.
Gahzrilla meta is coming and only Hemet can save us!!!
Nice vid Kripp, fuck you had me laughing, talking about Hemet lol..
Anyway Happy New Year Bro, keep up the good work, and I hope the new year treats ya well :)
I agree completely on Flame Levi-- great fit in a controlly mage. Just wish that the warrior and mage GVG legends were swapped.
Could Hemet be okay in Warlock? A 6 attack creature could be pretty strong for a shadow flame, and on the off chance there is a beast, then you're golden.
I agree it's awful, but could be made use there or possibly with Void Terror
Mind me adding: it's odd that the worst cards aren't all commons.
Having a card as bad as Hemet being a legendary, and Shadowbomber an epic, is just... I dunno - I can't find a metaphor fitting enough for how screwed up that is. :(
Bolvar is amazing.. If you draw him early on and use muster for battle a few times, play him with starting of 10 or so attack, than you can double his attack and throw kings on and bam, one hit kill card (i hit a priest with bolvar at 26 attack when he had 24 hp.. Probally upset him. Lol)
Hemet Nesingwary should've got the effect: "Battlecry: Destroy a Dragon." or something along these lines. that would have been way more useful (not only the Legendary Dragons but also the Azure one). Then it is at least an unique version of BGH~
Unfairly for orge warmaul, I had awesome usage of it in arena, always turns out well if u dont give it 100% hit all the time, u would know how/when to use it. Also its decent on low ranks for sure, I dont have DB and ppl plaing more just creatures on low ranks so its pretty good in my exp.
I think the one and only way to make Hemmit in any way viable, is to make all the dragon/drake cards beasts. Yep, Ysera, Alexstrasza, Nozdormu, Malygos, Deathwing, Twilight Drake, and some others would be marked as beasts. If, and only if, this happens, then, Hemet will be a not too shabby card, especially against control warrior, where the majority runs both Ysera AND Alexstrasza. I think this wouldn't be a nerf specifically, because you can have beast synergy. Eh, just my thought on how to make a shit card, a little better.
Hmmm what do with my golden Hemet Nessingwary? I think i'ma wait for a buff one day...
Hemet was CLEARLY made to counter face hunter. Even against other classes, it could be useful. Druids have the Druid of the Claw/Fang which would be good targets. Against ANY mech deck the shredders could pop out a beast as a target. Mages could Unstable Portal into King Krush, Ghaz'Rilla, or The Beast. Some people might just run some beasts because they are a F2P new player and they don't have many other options. At its worst Hemet baits out some kind of removal or gets rid of that crappy minion you didn't want to waste your bigger removal on. He's not totally worthless. Almost forgot to mention Malorne. He's a beast. Also a god sure, but he is a beast.
Slenderman'18 and nobody plays malorne...
I feel like shadowbomber is a combo card without a companion. Like if a priest had a card which turned damage into healing for your characters on your turn or something.
Won alot of matches with flying machine, using a warlock hobgoblin deck. Get it out as a 3/7 then slam a couple of power overwhelming on that bad boy. its nasty
Hearthstone Hates me somewhat. All the legendaries I got from packs where mostly useless since they were nerved.
My first was Milhouse, than Nat, than Tinkmaster, than Leeroy and now Nesing.
At least I could make some use out of their dust
GvG completely killed beast synergy hunter, I used it pretty much every season since like January, a like beast control hunter, highest i got was 58 legend in EU on the last day of the month. Beasts are just so terrible now when you compare them to their equivalent drop, even Savannah Highmane doesn't have significant advantage anymore now that Piloted Sky Golem exists which anybody can use. Seriously I knew beasts were gonna be terrible once I saw the cards for GvG, but I tried out my deck the other day which has hit legend multiple times, swapped my Oasis Snapjaw for Chillbeast Yeti (can't remember it's name), which was like the only good swap I could find for my deck, and then managed to squeeze Gahzrilla into my deck too. The deck totally totally sucks now, I was winning like 45%, the ones i was winning i was just basically outskilling them or getting lucky haha. Its like, you play Dire Wolf Alpha, they play a good 2 drop, you play Animal Companion, you get the fucking pig, they clear your board. You have nothing to buff with Houndmaster and play it anyway cause Hunter dies without board, they play Piloted Shredder. You could get choose which card you wanted to draw from your deck every single turn and still lose to a decent player. Beast Hunter is so so dead.
So yeah, Hemit Nessingwary being the worst card, I've gotta agree there. I can't see it ever receiving play from competent players, unless maybe Druid became extremely dominant, and nobody could beat them, people would maybe start using it for Druid of the Claw? I doubt it haha.
i think shadowbomber isnt a halfbad turn one. with priest u dont usually even have a turn two if u dont have the coin, so u can just heal the dmg away
flying machine can be decent for shaman if you combo it with the powermace weapon you get a 3/6 with windfury
trying to think of cards that don't benefit from divine spirit inner fire, there's a few, actually. magma rager, one-eyed cheat, and any 2/1 in the game, which is quite a few
Hemmet Nessingway: Battlecry - destroy all enemy beasts on the board. Not even that would be good. omg this battlecry was a stupid idea.
I was testing a deck that used Divine Spirit, Inner Fire and Maexxna. It seemed everyone would ignore her, even after a Divine Spirit, and I would essentially kill big targets for free. Faced off against a Handlock, and manage to win by killing all of his giants with her while keeping her alive.
cool. Your opponent was pretty unlucky that he never drew a siphon soul though. If I was playing the handlock I would have never played a Giant into a Maexxna and would try to tap until I found my Siphon.
lkjkhfggd I don't think he was running Siphon. Hadn't seen the whole game and I put some big creatures in the deck that could be worthy of a siphon.
The rogue 1-attack mech deck with iron sensei, and hobgoblin is a pretty fun gimmick deck. uberbuffed Flyingmachine ftw!
Kripp could you make a video about The Worst Legendary in HS.
I thought Nesingwary would have destroy target Legendary, seeing how he is basically everywhere hunting everything that has an actual name, but yah know, killing Bloodfen Raptor works too.
Flying Machine is actualy pretty good in a Hobgoblin deck. Or with classes who can buff its damage up.
Ogre Warmaul is okay. 50/50 to miss means that on average it will hit what you want once and then miss once, probably equating to a one for one trade. Though sometimes it hits face twice and you just lose a card and the opportunity to kill something with a weapon for two turns, and when that happens, you probably lose the game unless you can rush the opponent down. As far as arena is concerned, I hate this card tremendously, but I will easily take it over some other terrible common cards in the game (like Flying Machine or Stoneskin Gargoyle). Because on average I expect to hit what I want once, it should still be useful, unlike some cards that can never hope to get value. And hey, sometimes your arena draft isn't blessed with enough Fiery War Ax or Death's Bite and you take this because it's a weapon. As bad as Ogre Warmaul is, I don't think it's in the top five worst cards, and I would easily replace it in this list with Cobra Shot.
Eh, if it were for almost any other class you might have a point but when you can run Death's Bite for just 1 more mana it's hard to see why anyone would really want the warmaul outside of novelty (or perhaps ambitious dreams of slaying a stealth auctioneer, assuming they ever see one of those again). Yes, in arena it might be better than some other bad picks but only by virtue of it being two removal opportunities and not because it serves that function well.
You're right about Cobra Shot though, no idea what they were thinking with that one. Not that hunter needs efficient damage+removal cards right now but at 5 mana it's pretty close to unplayably bad. Too slow for both aggro and control and without enough impact relative to other cards that could fill that slot.
Happy Newarino Kripparino :)
Just got a Hemet yesterday. Lucky me. I think I now have all the bad GvG legendaries and like 1 good one. RNGsus is displeased.
i dont agree with Hemet and shadowbomber. I think Gnome infantry charge taunt thing is worse, but i do agree with the rest. even tho i have seen target dummy being put to use in aggro mech rogue.
My first and only gvg legendary I got is Hemet Nesingwary, gotta love that crap.
Hemet Nesingwary destroyed me one time. I had a good board of a silvermane and an owl against a mage that didn't have a fire ball or flamestrike or anything. He unstable portal'd it out destroyed my silvermane with a silence and pinged my owl. Game spiraled out of control after that and I lost.
I dont think flying machine should be on the list since all ut really needs to work ok is spare parts. 4/1 windfury actually hurts even a 2/4 windfury isnt that bad and it can also be used with for example powermace and so on
I like target dummy. I use it in a deck with two Iron Senseis, and I got some ridiculous fun combinations :-)
Hate that Hemet is the only legendary I got from the GvG packs. :L
Good list Kripp ! Some interesting choices.
Hemet is the only GvG legendary I had in more than 35 packs T.T
