I am kinda surprised Oasis Surger sees no play in non-Quest decks. It's a 5/5 or two 3/3's Rush for five mana; that's fairly strong even without the Quest making it BONKERS level strong.
I play Surger in my non-quest token druid deck. Though that's only because i don't have the quest. Same as i play Crystal Merchant in it as i find i do often float mana for a turn or two and even if it only draws 2 cards it's worth it. Plus while it's on board an opponent will prioritize killing that over hitting me in the face.
Well, think of it this way. Its is a 5 mana 5/5 which is sh*t, or it is a 5 mana restless mummy, that warrior has for 4 mana, that is why noone plays it.
@@dind20078 Hunter has to pay 6 for a 5/5 rush. Also comparing it to Restless Mummy is a bit silly since Mummy is only 6/3 worth of stats for 4 while Oasis Surger is 6/6 for 5, and Druid has a lot of efficient buff spells.
@@dind20078 The Restless Mummy comparison is spot on, probably explains it. Probably ends up being like the 35th best card to put in a non-Quest Druid deck, which obviously isn't making the cut.
cool video, but the description is false; Dionysus is an ancient Greek god and not an Egyptian god. The Egyptians did have a goddess of pleasure and music, her name is Bast (or Bastet).
Don't wanna ruin anyone's day here, but if anything, you should learn that Dionysus/Dionysos is from the ancient Greek, not ancient Egyptian mythology. Other than that - great content! Always nice to see Zalae (and Purple or others) enjoy/suffer through long and complicated games of Hearthstone. :)
In addition, your play uses 4 cards and 8 mana: Zephyrs, Mark of Nature, Shadowflame, and Loti. Zeph + Freeze is two cards and 5 mana. In the endgame, resources matter, and using 4 cards for what is essentially half a clear is too inefficient. Freezing a full board is better than an actual clear here because the opponent can’t develop any new minions.
Nomi, your dishes seem a bit cold wouldn't you say?
"Revenge is a dish best served cold" is it not what they say ?

Good point, seems nice in token druid. Are there other druids out there besides the token or quest theme?

After the ptolomeic disnaty in Egypt they actually worshiped some Greek deities
answering the real questions, our hero
Think you're so smart because you read Percy Jackson?

Could he have just mark of natured the loti and zephyrs into shadowflame?
If he cleared, he would have just played Floop, playing it all again.

The druid quest is such bad design - incentivizing doing nothing in early turns is so completely lame.
