Cards I expected to see: Emperor Thaurissan: Literally enabled so many decks back in it's day that wouldn't have been a thing without him. Shadowstep: quite self explanatory. Ice Block: Frustrating and broken effect.
The problem is guff wasn’t like meta warping. People didn’t play decks BECAUSE of guff. He was just an autoinclude. So top 100 makes sense, top 50 is iffy
@@theod4660 most people did not play Druid because of Guff, Guff was in most Druid decks. Dr Boom was in most classes (that wanted to finish the game before 7 mana), so He was in most decks because 9/9 for 7 with an additional 2-8 damage going to the enemy board was "good"
@@gardian06_85And even some aggro decks just put in boom because just putting boom onto the board after your control opponent “stabilized” could get you back into the game
@@memejesus4294 i am not stating my opinion, I am pointing fact, that Rarran literaly said in this video that Shuderwock is the best card shaman recieved and then he put three shaman cards higher in the tier list.
- Mechwarper allowed for a 0-mana SNIP-SNAP. As SNIP has both Echo and Magnetic, it could then be replayed infinitely to infinitely buff any mech on board. And then OS the opponent. It was so strong that the devs literally changed the code of the game to prevent cards with the Echo keyword to cost less than 1 mana. If a system-wide change is needed to nerf a card, I think it's a testament to how broken it was. This wasn't the only combo, Warlock for instance had a legendary that gave all minions echo, which enabled similar shenanigans. - Prince Keleseth warped the meta around it. Mage being mage : - The quest that gives you a free bonus turn - Apprentice at 2 mana was just bonkers - Ice block, for such a simple card to be so strong, and to be able to include two copies ? Druid being druid : - Twig of the world tree. Mana cheating may be strong in this game ? - Spreading plague - Divine spirit + inner fire + Topsy turvy, as a bucket this enabled combo priest decks to be played until they rotated out. - Divine Favour (favor?). Back then, this single-handedly enabled aggro paladin. In a meta where there was hardly any card draw, being able to dump your hand then play one card and equalize hands, it was stupid strong. So strong in fact that it was rotated out eventually by the devs due to placing too big a constraint on future cards design. - Guff. Just ... Guff.
His ratings were based exclusively on standard. Mechwarper was good in standard, but not even necessarily the best deck. Twig of the World Tree was unplayable in standard.
Prince Keleseth was almost the same as Patches... specially when both were in rotation, mage questline was one of the 3 playable decks in stormwind fuck that... Spreading Cancer* and finally Guff... 20 mana isn't even Hearthstone. Good picks, completely agree...
Ah yes, one of the true 'joys' of aging. Talkin' with that reflection of your former self. The distance, clarity, and amount of mirrors changes, but it's all reflection, in the house of mirrors we walk through that is life. Man, I should write a book or somethin'.
I would love that, I still play HS, but I played extremely much from classic till Old Gods and the nostalgia would hit different. YOU FACE JARAXXUS, EREDAR LORD OF THE BURNING LEGION, chugga chugga (that one aint that good, just nostalgia), TOO SOON, YOU HAVE AWAKEN ME TOO SOON EXECUTUS!, naxxramas is ours, sorry for the rambling, they gotta do classic, but have it add an expansion chronolgically as they went, without some caverns of time bs
@@speedycz5286 JARAXXUS might actually be the goat. I also like "By the power of Ragnaros, I have the POWEEER!" because it sounds so stupid repeating the word power. "Eeeveryone, get in here!" Certified hood classic. "Hey loser!" is pretty fire for it's ability to induce malding. "I see you..." (Loatheb) is pretty sick too, he just sounds cool.
Astalor not being in top 50 is crazy. That card was in every aggro, midrange and control deck, every stage of it got nerfed and it was still played. Much better card than Ilgynoth for example, which was only in 1 meta deck that saw play for only a couple of weeks.
What do you mean a couple of weeks? Ilgynoth won two world championships back to back and was the best dh deck for almost the entire time it was in standard
@@TwizzElishus Astalor was the main win condition of the tier 2(?) deck combo rougue I'm pretty sure; and also value rogue which was a slightly worse variant of combo rogue. So the card defined one of the top decks of the format while also being present in every other deck. Seems better than Dr Boom at least
@@TwizzElishustbf tho, the fact that the card is arguably one of the most played cards in hearthstone history (at least from my own limited knowledge bc I quit a few months ago lol), that says a lot about the card itself and I think it's otk potential and just being a staple card in any and every deck would put it in the conversation with or even above cards like corridor creeper
Arub'Rekan and Kaelthas Sunstrider are higher on the list but in my memory they mostly served as as enablers for Brann + Astalor. Not saying that they didnt see play outside those combos but Astalor was THE neutral finisher for its time in standart after Denathrius was nerfed.
You know you've played too much Hearthstone when you recognize 40/50 cards in the screenshot at 1:51 It's also a testament to Hearthstones artstyle for being so distinctive that cards are easily recognizable
true ez 6k hours or something. I once even recitet a voiceline a a joke without realizing what that voiceline came from, A bit after it hit me and i was like "damn i play too much heartstone"
I love little details in videos and the blink & you’ll miss it Darkest Dungeon stress reference was so good. I was there for that stream and can confirm how stressed he was going over all this.
I loved Deck of Lumacy + Incanters Flow at Barrens rotation. With the small card pool, you could choose some of the spells you got by deciding whether to cast Incanters Flow or not. So say you realised you probably would need some healing against an aggro deck, you could cast Incanters Flow once to get your Flamestrikes down to 6 mana, then cast Deck of Lunacy to transform them into 6 mana Libram of Hopes (the only 9 mana spell in the pool), just as an example. It felt tactical and deliberate.
I still remember my friend being like "omg this card is beyond broken and they need to nerf it before release! And none of the big streamers have addressed it!" when Corridor Creeper was revealed. To this day I'm still amazed he called how OP it was.
this vid made me unlock so many memories... shade of naxxramas, goldshire footman, gnomish inventor, doomguard, the guy that went the gates are open... anybody even remember arcane golem? might the worst card ever... stormpike commando.. elite tauren chieften... the song that went I AM MORE THAN A FISH I AM MORE THAN A MAN... or ROGUES DO IT FROM BEHIND.... dam..
probably just me but i'm surprised the Guff hero card isnt somewhere between 50-.40, he kinda changed the way you can play the game a lot. but overall interesting to hear the story of so many cards
Guff is the most overrated card of druids history I believe, it was certainly a strong card, but definitely balanced in comparison to the other hero cards at the time.
There was a point in time where I saw Titan Yogg-Saron being played and thought, "huh, since when does he cast random spells?", completely oblivious to what its original effect was and why it was changed. I see now why :) That does make an ungodly amount of sense, especially considering how many Spells generate more Spells to double up on discounting Sharon.
25:53 the opposite is also true, you can put it in a control deck against an aggro deck. Play it and waste all of their cheap cards while the aggro player can't do anything with your expensive cards. Basically skipping a whole turn
Demon Seed in wild even today, is the one single reason that I worry about playing my next ranked game. Usually it's just an auto-concede for me. Nice video rarran :)
Funny thing, if you go to replay the adventure Dalaran Heist, there's a boss in there with a 1-mana hero power to summon ANY random totem, that can be significantly harder now because it can summon things like Gigantotem
The only problem I have with this is that Defile should be top 5. Not only for power level (and dont get me wrong, Defile is still imo the best board clear ever), but because it's 100% peak game design, rewarding player skill over variance and luck.
ehh not anymore imo, the fucking 2 mana murloc for shaman that deals 1 damage to all enemies when a murloc is player with the murloc that gives a murloc poisunous was a 4 mana full enemy board wipe
One suggestion for future big lists like this: obviously you can't go explain the reasons behind the inclusion of every card if you want to keep the length of the video down, but I would have just shown each card from 100-51 individually without explaining them. Fantano does this for his end of year music lists and I think it's a better compromise than just showing a picture with all the cards in it
Sylvanas windrunner? It was completely obligatory in every dack for ages in early hearthstone. It wasn't as "toxic" as other cards but it's consistency was incredible.
Undertaker was like MtG's Tarmogoyf in its prime. Just a low-cost beatstick that grew in attack and health and demanded an answer. Both are still beloved cards, but have faded away in their eternal formats after years of power creep, though can still lay down a beating every now and then.
Thank you for putting in all the work on this video. This could not have been easy to sift through, edit, voice, etc. I'm very pleased with the top 10 you chose. This was almost an unpleasant walk down memory lane due to all the grief and nerfs we've had to work through.
Another thing that made deck of lunacy even stronger was the introduction of the core set and the rotation of basic and classic, hugely improving random pools (and not just for deck of lunacy, renewal is another example of this)
Rogue passage is extremely low as the most powerful draw engine in a card game, this shows how players only remember the things that killed them and never bother to see how strong are the engines behind those flashy cards
Yeah exactly! I think it's also why Rarran placed Patches so high on the list. It's a 1 mana 1/1 which has very little impact on the game, but you'd see it every game. The reason it's playable is the pirate package at the time was awesome. People seem to forget that
Idk what other comments are gonna go on about, but i just wanna say great video, thank u for list, it's great nostalgia and good fun to hear about cards, especially as a classic player myself, having played through most of the expansions. As u said, certain cards can be higher and lower depending on personal feeling and impact, but i think the list is an extremely accurate general playerbase opinon. While not every card would prob be agreed upon, i can imagine every player agreeing with at least 50% and i mean every single player, so 50% and prob a solid 40% being changing in positions of cards, and last 10% maybe including some other cards, is a pretty good margine for such a list. Great content chief :D
Honestly surprised I didn't see Emperor Thaurissan the impact that card had for a while and how dangerous it was to keep in on the field for even 1 turn
I would say patches should be number 1, mainly because he is one of the few cards that you didn't have to draw. All other powerful cards have draw inconsistency, but patches is the only guy who doesn't
I'm a little surprised to see Spreading Plague out of the top 50. That was the real enabling factor for the UI Druid. It singlehandedly crushed aggro decks, leaving only midrange and control for the rest of the 28 cards to feast on. It was egregious.
I think there is a case to be made that a lot of classic and early expansion cards are underrepresented here. And I think its easy to undervalue them because they never got nerfed, but would be kinda bad today. But in the early days of Hearthstone there were cards that practically everyone ran in every deck. Some neutral legendaries were run by every deck, like the original Sylvanas, Cairne Bloodhoof, Harrison Jones, or Nat Pagel (especially pre-nerf). And some of the early commons were pretty damn strong because most classes didnt have anything that could deal with them, Sludge Belcher, or Chillwind Yeti, doomsayer, azure drake, loot horder, knife juggler, mind control tech, or even something like Ironbeak Owl or Coldlight Oracle which were run pretty frequently just because silence and card draw was a premium back then. They were all so commonly run that you had to play around them against every single class you played, every single deck type, because everyone was running them.
Sylvanas/cairne/harrison/pagel (excluding pre-nerf) were only really played in grindy decks. If they aren't played as much as boom I feel like it's hard to say they were that good. I feel like it's a little harder to judge classic because the pool was so small and you were forced to play bad stuff because of that. Things like owl, belcher or faceless manipulator might be worth dicussing.
@@benjaminyarleque2345 nah they were in ramp druid (although Harrison was tech), sylvanas was in hand lock a reasonable amount of time Belcher and azure drake in their respective metas were insanely dominant though, azure drake ended up even seeing play as a 5 mana 4/4 draw a card in decks that had no way to even abuse spell power. Belcher was crazy because it was good for anything less aggressive than a face deck - it protected your minions for midrange/aggressive strategies, and protected your face for ramp/control strategies, and also had the double shot of deathrattle synergy with nzoth when he came out
Undertaker is the wrong #1. Yes, I played back then. Yes the card was oppressive. Yes, I could believe a fairly high placement for the card. But...a few things: 1. It's not necessarily the most dominant deck we've ever seen, they just took a long time to nerf it cause they nerfed way slower back then. 2. Pre-nerf undertaker was legal in the 2014 world championships. Among the top 16 players, only slightly over half of them brought hunter. Clearly it was possible to counter the deck or everyone would bring it. More people brought Warlock (13) than Hunter (9) to that world championship. Obviously there were bans so you could just ban the best deck, but not everyone banned hunter either (Tiddlercelestial didn't ban hunter in the grand finals, he banned warlock--also, Firebat never played his hunter in the grand finals even though he could have--just swept with other decks). 3. Undertaker was neutral but not run in that many classes. Mostly Hunter, and later Kibler made an undertaker Priest, but that was about it. Best card of all time is neutral but only got played in like...two classes? Really??? 4. I do agree with with one point you made, by the way, undertaker on 1 against an opponent with no removal was borderline unbeatable. I agree. But also if you just never drew undertaker now you have a deck full of mediocre deathrattles like webspinner. Even if you topdecked it late, undertaker on turn 5 was still usually not good enough. You had to get undertaker on turn 1 or your deck was bad. Undertaker was like the Prince Keleseth of the deck--if you didn't draw it, and draw early, now you built your deck weird for no reason. 5. They un-nerfed undertaker for wild years ago, and people tried it for a bit, but ultimately it just hasn't done a lot in the format (although it did do more than Prince Keleseth in wild, for what its worth). I realize this isn't about wild, but still, you'd expect the "strongest card of all time" in its fully un-nerfed form to at least be played in like...at least one tier 3 wild deck or...something?
Rarran really do be making the best HS content. It's kinda sad as a wild player, there isn't anyone that will do these interesting topics and talk about the history and do so much, for wild. At least no one I'm aware of. Keep up the amazing content
I dunno why I really thought I knew the ending was gonna be Yeti - maybe I;ve seen to many videos with the Blue. Very well done looks like it took a lot of work.
Honestly think mad scientist deserves to be top 20, let alone top 50 on raw power level alone. Card was released in Naxx and would still be above rate for literally any deck that plays any amount of secrets. And if you also factor in impact on release, I'd say it easily rivals undertaker. Sure, the Undertaker going face ended the game but a huge part of that was it also being released with literally the best 2 drop deathrattle minion ever made that also synergised with the class.
Fun fact : Undertaker was the first card revealed for Curse of Naxxramas, making it the first expansion card revealed ever, opening a tradition of extremely well balanced card for the future.
A wild list would be fun to see, since answers would change in surprising ways. Cards like twig of the world tree, open the waygate, sn1p-sn4p, kobold illusionist, spawn of shadows and many more saw little to no play during standard but completely dominated wild at different periods.
The best card in it's prime was Zephyrs, he LITERALLY gave you THE PERFECT card as long as you played highlander. But since his AI is senile and only gives Jaraxxus basically LOL the best card IMHO is Shudderwock!
Personally, I'd call it an easy top 10 "best" card just because it was so omnipresent in the meta. However, I wouldn't call it a stupid unfair meta-breaking card, which is the way Rarran is thinking of "best." Zephrys was weirdly fair BECAUSE it's a Highlander card and relatively easy to play around or bait out.
I am happy with the list. Good job rarran. That being said, patches will always be my number 1. He warped every aggro deck around it. I think that is the big difference between undertaker and patches. Undertaker was mainly ran in hunter, and only really hunter (obviously there are other decks, but it is definitely not as well known). There is the argument that undertaker is more likely to win you the game if it scales; however EVERY single aggro deck ran pirates before the nerf. Not only did it warp the standard meta game for a very long time, it also warped the wild meta game as well. Patches in druid, warlock, warrior, rogue, shaman. Patches warped the WHOLE meta around it. I understand HE himself doesn't win the game usually, but I believe that amount of warping deserves the numba 1 in my heart. TLDR: I am in no unhappy with the list, but patches is still my numba 1.
To add to the mysterious challenger, I remember mages in ladder began running grand crusader just for the off chance to getting the challenger, that was how busted it is, it got so annoying that at some point I think someone did that to day9 on stream, the memes were real, and people began playing kezan mystic as a soft counter, as bad as it was...
Cool list! Was very glad to see lack of Priest cards overall, screw that class 😅 Surprised to see Deck of Lunacy so high but very fun card. Thank you for all your hard work, love your content!
Great video! Selection criteria really hurt ice block here. I agree with the placement, but oh man would that card be way higher if they had left it in the game longer.
Interesting that the 2-mana mage card that won you the game on turn 2 if you drew it was top 10, but the 2-mana neutral minion Price Keleseth that won you the game on turn 2 if you drew it was not even top 50.
@@spectron5012 Okay? Still actively makes your deck worse. And it gets weaker a lot faster than Incanter's Flow. I'm not saying Keleseth was bad or fair. But Incanter's is stronger
Very much spot on Would like to add: Unleash the hounds and buzzard both at 2 mana right before Naxaramas was out. Hunter could OTK 30-0 from only those two cards alone, crazy crazy meta
I loved Even/Odd decks :( Especially fun to play against, because they offered a fun challenge of remembering which pool your opponent was playing from. Shudderwork, on the other hand... felt bad to play because you threw it down then just watched animations. Even worse to play against.
The one thing you didn't mention for Galakrond Sahaman is that people thought the best (or only) way to beat it was to abuse Nozdormu to skip their turn.
I overall agree with all of your picks except for not having guff included. He was so good even aggro druid decks put him in at the time. He enabled some of the most heinous combos ever seen in both standard, with stuff like brann and astalor, and wild where if it wasn't for guff I don't think twig would ever have been killed either.
Im impressed by how closely i agree with this, aside from a couple orderings. I also like making the top 5 neutral; demon seed is the best class card, and potentislly most powerful card, ever printed, but the top 5 were meta tyrants in multiple classes.
Interesting video and sorting of cards. Obviously many people are going to disagree because a tier list fundamentally is very opinion based. As someone who also played since closes beta but left after witch wood and came back during sunken city, when looking at older cards I would have placed several cards like boom and shadowstep above undertaker because they were basically universally good and metawarping.
Great list. But I would have put demon seed as rank 1. That card almost single-handedly killed hearthstone. It made many of us quit the game either temporarily or permanently.
Hey Rarran good video. I would say that even though the card didn’t get banned it saw 2 nerfs and was still played in every standard deck AND every wild deck though this isn’t a metric you considered for this video)) but I’m Pretty Sure Astalor beat out a lot of your top 20s. I agree with a lot of this, as I too have somehow survived playing this game since alpha. But I do believe that Astalor had more affect on the game and was a card praised to be rotated by ALOT of the community. Because much like patches, it was in every deck in the entire meta and DIDNT even force things to build around it because it was 100% just a free inclusion. More so when it was pre-nerfed
Ahh undertaker, when everyone was playing undertaker hunter and a few of us devised undertaker druid as a direct counter and filled out multiple top ten slots on legend. Only time I ever touched rank 1 legend but those were the good days.
its fun to see that all these extremely strong flavour and lore wise cards like yogg-saron and other literal gods lose to something you'd see in wow dungeon as trash mob
I counted the watchposts as one card, so technically there is 101 cards on the tier list
Snowflipper Penguin is the best card.
I know this is for standard, but secret passage existing in wild makes me wanna cry 😢

@@janforst7169 It was the best shaman card but the other cards warped meta waaaay more then he did, which was a big factor in Rarran's list
- Mechwarper allowed for a 0-mana SNIP-SNAP. As SNIP has both Echo and Magnetic, it could then be replayed infinitely to infinitely buff any mech on board. And then OS the opponent.
It was so strong that the devs literally changed the code of the game to prevent cards with the Echo keyword to cost less than 1 mana. If a system-wide change is needed to nerf a card, I think it's a testament to how broken it was. This wasn't the only combo, Warlock for instance had a legendary that gave all minions echo, which enabled similar shenanigans.
- Prince Keleseth warped the meta around it.
Mage being mage :
- The quest that gives you a free bonus turn
- Apprentice at 2 mana was just bonkers
- Ice block, for such a simple card to be so strong, and to be able to include two copies ?
Druid being druid :
- Twig of the world tree. Mana cheating may be strong in this game ?
- Spreading plague
- Divine spirit + inner fire + Topsy turvy, as a bucket this enabled combo priest decks to be played until they rotated out.
- Divine Favour (favor?). Back then, this single-handedly enabled aggro paladin. In a meta where there was hardly any card draw, being able to dump your hand then play one card and equalize hands, it was stupid strong. So strong in fact that it was rotated out eventually by the devs due to placing too big a constraint on future cards design.
- Guff. Just ... Guff.
His ratings were based exclusively on standard. Mechwarper was good in standard, but not even necessarily the best deck. Twig of the World Tree was unplayable in standard.
Prince Keleseth was almost the same as Patches... specially when both were in rotation, mage questline was one of the 3 playable decks in stormwind fuck that... Spreading Cancer* and finally Guff... 20 mana isn't even Hearthstone. Good picks, completely agree...
all of those are in the top 100 im pretty sure
noway deck of lunacy can win deck of Guff

Ah yes, one of the true 'joys' of aging. Talkin' with that reflection of your former self. The distance, clarity, and amount of mirrors changes, but it's all reflection, in the house of mirrors we walk through that is life.
Man, I should write a book or somethin'.
8:05 you mention top Voice lines is not what this list is about. But maybe you should make one?
The "Tasdingo" Sweep?
I would love that, I still play HS, but I played extremely much from classic till Old Gods and the nostalgia would hit different. YOU FACE JARAXXUS, EREDAR LORD OF THE BURNING LEGION, chugga chugga (that one aint that good, just nostalgia), TOO SOON, YOU HAVE AWAKEN ME TOO SOON EXECUTUS!, naxxramas is ours, sorry for the rambling, they gotta do classic, but have it add an expansion chronolgically as they went, without some caverns of time bs
Keep on pannin’!
Underrated comment
@@speedycz5286 JARAXXUS might actually be the goat.
I also like "By the power of Ragnaros, I have the POWEEER!" because it sounds so stupid repeating the word power.
"Eeeveryone, get in here!" Certified hood classic.
"Hey loser!" is pretty fire for it's ability to induce malding.
"I see you..." (Loatheb) is pretty sick too, he just sounds cool.
I'm ASSUMING it's Patches
To be honest I really thought this entire video was leading up to a boulder fist oger
oger rank 1 in our hearts
Astalor not being in top 50 is crazy. That card was in every aggro, midrange and control deck, every stage of it got nerfed and it was still played. Much better card than Ilgynoth for example, which was only in 1 meta deck that saw play for only a couple of weeks.
Came back to HS when Astalor was still in standard. Hated that card.
What do you mean a couple of weeks? Ilgynoth won two world championships back to back and was the best dh deck for almost the entire time it was in standard
@@TwizzElishus Astalor was the main win condition of the tier 2(?) deck combo rougue I'm pretty sure; and also value rogue which was a slightly worse variant of combo rogue. So the card defined one of the top decks of the format while also being present in every other deck. Seems better than Dr Boom at least
@@TwizzElishustbf tho, the fact that the card is arguably one of the most played cards in hearthstone history (at least from my own limited knowledge bc I quit a few months ago lol), that says a lot about the card itself and I think it's otk potential and just being a staple card in any and every deck would put it in the conversation with or even above cards like corridor creeper
Arub'Rekan and Kaelthas Sunstrider are higher on the list but in my memory they mostly served as as enablers for Brann + Astalor. Not saying that they didnt see play outside those combos but Astalor was THE neutral finisher for its time in standart after Denathrius was nerfed.
Great video. I think Gadgetzan Auctioneer deserves a spot in the top grouping. That card worked its way into so many decks over the years.
You know you've played too much Hearthstone when you recognize 40/50 cards in the screenshot at 1:51
It's also a testament to Hearthstones artstyle for being so distinctive that cards are easily recognizable
true ez 6k hours or something. I once even recitet a voiceline a a joke without realizing what that voiceline came from, A bit after it hit me and i was like "damn i play too much heartstone"
@@theoneandonly3435Do you remember the voiceline

"Jippie ja yeah Schweinebacke"
I love little details in videos and the blink & you’ll miss it Darkest Dungeon stress reference was so good. I was there for that stream and can confirm how stressed he was going over all this.
I loved Deck of Lumacy + Incanters Flow at Barrens rotation. With the small card pool, you could choose some of the spells you got by deciding whether to cast Incanters Flow or not. So say you realised you probably would need some healing against an aggro deck, you could cast Incanters Flow once to get your Flamestrikes down to 6 mana, then cast Deck of Lunacy to transform them into 6 mana Libram of Hopes (the only 9 mana spell in the pool), just as an example. It felt tactical and deliberate.
I still remember my friend being like "omg this card is beyond broken and they need to nerf it before release! And none of the big streamers have addressed it!" when Corridor Creeper was revealed. To this day I'm still amazed he called how OP it was.
this vid made me unlock so many memories... shade of naxxramas, goldshire footman, gnomish inventor, doomguard, the guy that went the gates are open... anybody even remember arcane golem? might the worst card ever... stormpike commando.. elite tauren chieften... the song that went I AM MORE THAN A FISH I AM MORE THAN A MAN... or ROGUES DO IT FROM BEHIND.... dam..
probably just me but i'm surprised the Guff hero card isnt somewhere between 50-.40, he kinda changed the way you can play the game a lot. but overall interesting to hear the story of so many cards
He was strong in standard, i give you that, but he was there while demon seed was there too, which is probably why he isnt on the top 50
He wasn't that oppressive in standard, and this list isn't really taking wild into account.
cariel was prob the worse hero card to play against, I mean every deck HAD to play the viper that destroys weapons because of her
Guff is the most overrated card of druids history I believe, it was certainly a strong card, but definitely balanced in comparison to the other hero cards at the time.
@@scurrxYeah but at least it was a hero card that you actually could get rid of
There was a point in time where I saw Titan Yogg-Saron being played and thought, "huh, since when does he cast random spells?", completely oblivious to what its original effect was and why it was changed. I see now why :) That does make an ungodly amount of sense, especially considering how many Spells generate more Spells to double up on discounting Sharon.
25:53 the opposite is also true, you can put it in a control deck against an aggro deck. Play it and waste all of their cheap cards while the aggro player can't do anything with your expensive cards. Basically skipping a whole turn
have to make sure nothing can be played + extremely low tempo
Demon Seed in wild even today, is the one single reason that I worry about playing my next ranked game.
Usually it's just an auto-concede for me.
Nice video rarran :)
Funny thing, if you go to replay the adventure Dalaran Heist, there's a boss in there with a 1-mana hero power to summon ANY random totem, that can be significantly harder now because it can summon things like Gigantotem
I would say Tamsin Quest line Warlock is the most impactful card. It was not only impactful in standard, it still wreak havoc in wild.
Forget where I read it but some time ago a dev confirmed huntertaker was the most oppressive deck ever with 70% WR at higher ladder
The only problem I have with this is that Defile should be top 5. Not only for power level (and dont get me wrong, Defile is still imo the best board clear ever), but because it's 100% peak game design, rewarding player skill over variance and luck.
ehh not anymore imo, the fucking 2 mana murloc for shaman that deals 1 damage to all enemies when a murloc is player with the murloc that gives a murloc poisunous was a 4 mana full enemy board wipe
One suggestion for future big lists like this: obviously you can't go explain the reasons behind the inclusion of every card if you want to keep the length of the video down, but I would have just shown each card from 100-51 individually without explaining them. Fantano does this for his end of year music lists and I think it's a better compromise than just showing a picture with all the cards in it
Sylvanas windrunner? It was completely obligatory in every dack for ages in early hearthstone. It wasn't as "toxic" as other cards but it's consistency was incredible.
Undertaker was like MtG's Tarmogoyf in its prime. Just a low-cost beatstick that grew in attack and health and demanded an answer. Both are still beloved cards, but have faded away in their eternal formats after years of power creep, though can still lay down a beating every now and then.
Thank you for putting in all the work on this video. This could not have been easy to sift through, edit, voice, etc. I'm very pleased with the top 10 you chose. This was almost an unpleasant walk down memory lane due to all the grief and nerfs we've had to work through.
Another thing that made deck of lunacy even stronger was the introduction of the core set and the rotation of basic and classic, hugely improving random pools (and not just for deck of lunacy, renewal is another example of this)
Rogue passage is extremely low as the most powerful draw engine in a card game, this shows how players only remember the things that killed them and never bother to see how strong are the engines behind those flashy cards
Yeah exactly! I think it's also why Rarran placed Patches so high on the list. It's a 1 mana 1/1 which has very little impact on the game, but you'd see it every game. The reason it's playable is the pirate package at the time was awesome. People seem to forget that
Secret passage was incredible and everyone is fully aware of that. Patches is overrated AF.
Idk what other comments are gonna go on about, but i just wanna say great video, thank u for list, it's great nostalgia and good fun to hear about cards, especially as a classic player myself, having played through most of the expansions. As u said, certain cards can be higher and lower depending on personal feeling and impact, but i think the list is an extremely accurate general playerbase opinon. While not every card would prob be agreed upon, i can imagine every player agreeing with at least 50% and i mean every single player, so 50% and prob a solid 40% being changing in positions of cards, and last 10% maybe including some other cards, is a pretty good margine for such a list.
Great content chief :D
Honestly surprised I didn't see Emperor Thaurissan the impact that card had for a while and how dangerous it was to keep in on the field for even 1 turn
I was really expecting Boulderfist Ogre somewhere...
And did Rarran just explain Titans as Planeswalkers? Welcome to the MTG realm 😁
I would say patches should be number 1, mainly because he is one of the few cards that you didn't have to draw. All other powerful cards have draw inconsistency, but patches is the only guy who doesn't
Patches had draw inconsistency. Drawing him at the time would reduce your winrate from ~60% to ~40%.
@@DrNiradino Yes, but you are more likely to get a positive impact from Patches than the Undertaker
@@DrNiradino Yeah but it's inverted. The chance of drawing a card you want is lower than the chance of not drawing a card you want to not draw.
@@blahthebiste7924 yea but at the same time it's wrong to say patches doesn't have draw inconsistency because he clearly does
Baku and Genn also don't have that inconsistency.
Your Honor,
Ice Block
I rest my case.
Death penalty..
Oh wait, the ice block stops it.
I think illucia wouldve still seen play with its original effect at 6 Mana. It's just a 1 Mana more expensive time warp. It's insane
I'm a little surprised to see Spreading Plague out of the top 50. That was the real enabling factor for the UI Druid. It singlehandedly crushed aggro decks, leaving only midrange and control for the rest of the 28 cards to feast on. It was egregious.
Possibly my least favourite card
The same can be said about defile and other supportive cards.
This Is a list of mostly threats
shout out to the battleblock theater music
I think there is a case to be made that a lot of classic and early expansion cards are underrepresented here. And I think its easy to undervalue them because they never got nerfed, but would be kinda bad today. But in the early days of Hearthstone there were cards that practically everyone ran in every deck. Some neutral legendaries were run by every deck, like the original Sylvanas, Cairne Bloodhoof, Harrison Jones, or Nat Pagel (especially pre-nerf). And some of the early commons were pretty damn strong because most classes didnt have anything that could deal with them, Sludge Belcher, or Chillwind Yeti, doomsayer, azure drake, loot horder, knife juggler, mind control tech, or even something like Ironbeak Owl or Coldlight Oracle which were run pretty frequently just because silence and card draw was a premium back then. They were all so commonly run that you had to play around them against every single class you played, every single deck type, because everyone was running them.
READY FOR ACTION
Sylvanas/cairne/harrison/pagel (excluding pre-nerf) were only really played in grindy decks. If they aren't played as much as boom I feel like it's hard to say they were that good. I feel like it's a little harder to judge classic because the pool was so small and you were forced to play bad stuff because of that. Things like owl, belcher or faceless manipulator might be worth dicussing.
I think owl is the only one that can enter here. But some of the cards you mention only saw play in warrior
@@benjaminyarleque2345 nah they were in ramp druid (although Harrison was tech), sylvanas was in hand lock a reasonable amount of time
Belcher and azure drake in their respective metas were insanely dominant though, azure drake ended up even seeing play as a 5 mana 4/4 draw a card in decks that had no way to even abuse spell power. Belcher was crazy because it was good for anything less aggressive than a face deck - it protected your minions for midrange/aggressive strategies, and protected your face for ramp/control strategies, and also had the double shot of deathrattle synergy with nzoth when he came out
Man this video takes me back through years of frustration and anger due to certain cards haha. Great list!
Undertaker is the wrong #1.
Yes, I played back then. Yes the card was oppressive. Yes, I could believe a fairly high placement for the card. But...a few things:
1. It's not necessarily the most dominant deck we've ever seen, they just took a long time to nerf it cause they nerfed way slower back then.
2. Pre-nerf undertaker was legal in the 2014 world championships. Among the top 16 players, only slightly over half of them brought hunter. Clearly it was possible to counter the deck or everyone would bring it. More people brought Warlock (13) than Hunter (9) to that world championship. Obviously there were bans so you could just ban the best deck, but not everyone banned hunter either (Tiddlercelestial didn't ban hunter in the grand finals, he banned warlock--also, Firebat never played his hunter in the grand finals even though he could have--just swept with other decks).
3. Undertaker was neutral but not run in that many classes. Mostly Hunter, and later Kibler made an undertaker Priest, but that was about it. Best card of all time is neutral but only got played in like...two classes? Really???
4. I do agree with with one point you made, by the way, undertaker on 1 against an opponent with no removal was borderline unbeatable. I agree. But also if you just never drew undertaker now you have a deck full of mediocre deathrattles like webspinner. Even if you topdecked it late, undertaker on turn 5 was still usually not good enough. You had to get undertaker on turn 1 or your deck was bad. Undertaker was like the Prince Keleseth of the deck--if you didn't draw it, and draw early, now you built your deck weird for no reason.
5. They un-nerfed undertaker for wild years ago, and people tried it for a bit, but ultimately it just hasn't done a lot in the format (although it did do more than Prince Keleseth in wild, for what its worth). I realize this isn't about wild, but still, you'd expect the "strongest card of all time" in its fully un-nerfed form to at least be played in like...at least one tier 3 wild deck or...something?
Rarran really do be making the best HS content. It's kinda sad as a wild player, there isn't anyone that will do these interesting topics and talk about the history and do so much, for wild. At least no one I'm aware of. Keep up the amazing content
M excited for this video, especially after you talked about it a lot in the other videos. Shout out to you bro
I stopped playing HS 6 years ago, never got back into it, and this video made sure I never will, so thanks, great list!
I dunno why I really thought I knew the ending was gonna be Yeti - maybe I;ve seen to many videos with the Blue. Very well done looks like it took a lot of work.
You mean Mesa Falcon Guy ?
Honestly think mad scientist deserves to be top 20, let alone top 50 on raw power level alone. Card was released in Naxx and would still be above rate for literally any deck that plays any amount of secrets.
And if you also factor in impact on release, I'd say it easily rivals undertaker. Sure, the Undertaker going face ended the game but a huge part of that was it also being released with literally the best 2 drop deathrattle minion ever made that also synergised with the class.
Lost Paintings, from Castlevania Symphony of the Night, as the background track is perfect. I love it. Great video
Fun fact : Undertaker was the first card revealed for Curse of Naxxramas, making it the first expansion card revealed ever, opening a tradition of extremely well balanced card for the future.
A wild list would be fun to see, since answers would change in surprising ways. Cards like twig of the world tree, open the waygate, sn1p-sn4p, kobold illusionist, spawn of shadows and many more saw little to no play during standard but completely dominated wild at different periods.
"Give it the ol' yeller" sent me bro 😂😂😂😂😂
Me, everytime Rarran went to showcase the next card: Undertaker!
Oh...
Undertaker!
Oh…
Undertaker!
Oh...
Undertaker!
Oh…
I was eventually correct.
10 years of on and off caring about this game. A fun retrospective of sorts! Great video
The best card in it's prime was Zephyrs, he LITERALLY gave you THE PERFECT card as long as you played highlander.
But since his AI is senile and only gives Jaraxxus basically LOL the best card IMHO is Shudderwock!
No. The best card is Jaraxxus clearly. As you said, it is the perfect card basically all the time.
Personally, I'd call it an easy top 10 "best" card just because it was so omnipresent in the meta. However, I wouldn't call it a stupid unfair meta-breaking card, which is the way Rarran is thinking of "best." Zephrys was weirdly fair BECAUSE it's a Highlander card and relatively easy to play around or bait out.
If his battlecry truely gave you THE PERFECT card, ogre would always be a choice
@@amaze3727 in his diamond animation he does 😉
@@Telhias I thought it was Tirion.
5 mana sylvanas and ragnaros autoinclude in almost every deck in the beginning of hearthstone
I dig the Symphony of the night track you chose.
i love all the garcello music from smoke 'em out struggle FNF
I didn’t play enough HS to debate this list but I did enjoy the trip down memory lane. Good video
My favorite thing is remember certain voice lines of cards when I see them. Reno shows up “we’re gonna be rich”
I expected Sylvanas Windrunner to be on this list
I am happy with the list. Good job rarran.
That being said, patches will always be my number 1. He warped every aggro deck around it. I think that is the big difference between undertaker and patches. Undertaker was mainly ran in hunter, and only really hunter (obviously there are other decks, but it is definitely not as well known).
There is the argument that undertaker is more likely to win you the game if it scales; however EVERY single aggro deck ran pirates before the nerf. Not only did it warp the standard meta game for a very long time, it also warped the wild meta game as well. Patches in druid, warlock, warrior, rogue, shaman. Patches warped the WHOLE meta around it.
I understand HE himself doesn't win the game usually, but I believe that amount of warping deserves the numba 1 in my heart.
TLDR: I am in no unhappy with the list, but patches is still my numba 1.
To add to the mysterious challenger, I remember mages in ladder began running grand crusader just for the off chance to getting the challenger, that was how busted it is, it got so annoying that at some point I think someone did that to day9 on stream, the memes were real, and people began playing kezan mystic as a soft counter, as bad as it was...
Recently got back into Hearthstone and man, I am having a lot of fun with Demon Seed in Wild. It scratches an itch I didn’t know needed scratching.
Great effort to compile this, also goated level engagement farming. I respect it
Cool list!
Was very glad to see lack of Priest cards overall, screw that class 😅
Surprised to see Deck of Lunacy so high but very fun card.
Thank you for all your hard work, love your content!
BattleBlock Theatre ost goes hard
Great video! Selection criteria really hurt ice block here. I agree with the placement, but oh man would that card be way higher if they had left it in the game longer.
Interesting that the 2-mana mage card that won you the game on turn 2 if you drew it was top 10, but the 2-mana neutral minion Price Keleseth that won you the game on turn 2 if you drew it was not even top 50.
Keleseth has a downside
@@JakeFish5058 thats cope, every deck could easily cut all their 2 cost minions just to play kelly
@@spectron5012 Okay? Still actively makes your deck worse. And it gets weaker a lot faster than Incanter's Flow.
I'm not saying Keleseth was bad or fair. But Incanter's is stronger
Sounds absolutely right that Hearstsones top three cards of all time incudes a one mana 1/1 and a one mana 1/2
The barnes turn 1 otk with druid will forever be legendary
Surprised Wildheart Guff isn't on here
Where is "Sylvanas Windrunner"? It is an absolute card! It is definitely in top10
Very much spot on
Would like to add: Unleash the hounds and buzzard both at 2 mana right before Naxaramas was out.
Hunter could OTK 30-0 from only those two cards alone, crazy crazy meta
Absolutely loved the streams over this topic and so excited to watch the video!
I still have nightmares about the Grim Patron's shout "EVERYONE GET IN HERE."
I loved Even/Odd decks :( Especially fun to play against, because they offered a fun challenge of remembering which pool your opponent was playing from. Shudderwork, on the other hand... felt bad to play because you threw it down then just watched animations. Even worse to play against.
The one thing you didn't mention for Galakrond Sahaman is that people thought the best (or only) way to beat it was to abuse Nozdormu to skip their turn.
I overall agree with all of your picks except for not having guff included. He was so good even aggro druid decks put him in at the time. He enabled some of the most heinous combos ever seen in both standard, with stuff like brann and astalor, and wild where if it wasn't for guff I don't think twig would ever have been killed either.
Im impressed by how closely i agree with this, aside from a couple orderings. I also like making the top 5 neutral; demon seed is the best class card, and potentislly most powerful card, ever printed, but the top 5 were meta tyrants in multiple classes.
Seeing Undertaker as #1 card brings a tear to my eye.
It's from PTSD that that card gave me, it makes me cry every time it's mentioned
Interesting video and sorting of cards. Obviously many people are going to disagree because a tier list fundamentally is very opinion based. As someone who also played since closes beta but left after witch wood and came back during sunken city, when looking at older cards I would have placed several cards like boom and shadowstep above undertaker because they were basically universally good and metawarping.
I loved trying to make Il'gynoth OTK decks when it was released
Illusia: This is the first time on this list when we see a complete redesign
Warsong commander: Am I joke to you?
Thank you for the video!
The most powerful effect was on Unearthed Raptor, as playing the card literally crashed your opponents game.
Great list. But I would have put demon seed as rank 1. That card almost single-handedly killed hearthstone. It made many of us quit the game either temporarily or permanently.
Hey Rarran good video. I would say that even though the card didn’t get banned it saw 2 nerfs and was still played in every standard deck AND every wild deck though this isn’t a metric you considered for this video)) but I’m Pretty Sure Astalor beat out a lot of your top 20s. I agree with a lot of this, as I too have somehow survived playing this game since alpha. But I do believe that Astalor had more affect on the game and was a card praised to be rotated by ALOT of the community. Because much like patches, it was in every deck in the entire meta and DIDNT even force things to build around it because it was 100% just a free inclusion. More so when it was pre-nerfed
Ahh undertaker, when everyone was playing undertaker hunter and a few of us devised undertaker druid as a direct counter and filled out multiple top ten slots on legend. Only time I ever touched rank 1 legend but those were the good days.
I still think Paches should get buffed back in Wild with its old voice line "I am in Charge now!!!"
Bold choice putting two copies of Boulderfist Ogre in both positions one and two but I respect it
Good stats for cost has to be up top
its fun to see that all these extremely strong flavour and lore wise cards like yogg-saron and other literal gods lose to something you'd see in wow dungeon as trash mob
Very surprised to not see Astalor, Spiteful Summoner, or Prince Keleseth even break the top 50
Did not expected Castlevania ost mid video, nice
