Randombanana True. all jokes aside i remember watching reynad and he talked about how he is glad priest is the worst because its the worse class to lose to. And i agree
See, I love Ben Brode, but that "we make cards for fun" aspect is bullshit. They have the stats. They have cummunity managers, they say they read and listen. Then why do they not give priest a good card and save the "fun card" for later, or a class that is already constructed for winning exclusively? Look, when my car is broken and it doesn't run because the engine is dead, I do not need a fancy exhaust pipe or heated seats or a twin-clutch gearbox! I need a fucking engine, or the car is dead, still. Why would we need a fancy card for a class that nobody plays, because the class is just too defensive in an casual, aggressive and fast game. You can't win a race when all the other cars have 550hp and priest sits in an 50hp wagon with some amazing 10.000$ brakes. _Sorry for all the car references, but I thought they are the easiest metaphors to understand._
Edward Fontaine ***** On another video I posted a similar comment and said they could have just given rogue, a quite functional class at the moment, a similar card that took me 10 seconds to think of and would have made more sense. Why not make a card called " *Hold this!* " 1 mana spell, " _Give your opponent a 2/1 weapon and draw a card._ ". I got applause for that and it literally took me 10 seconds, and that piece of crap thought is still something we could talk about, stretch it, form it, make it 2 mana 1/1 weapon, I don't give a beep, but every particle of that imaginary card is better than *Purify* . I like Hearthstone, I kinda like Blizzard. But holy shit, they scream for attention in the form of a shitstorm. Sometimes I just feel like they have a meeting around a gigantic round table and go " _Ok. So, we're done with this expansion. How are we gonna serve it? Damn right, we need a shitstorm!_ "
Arrakiz666 Agreed, Priest is just too reactive. The problem is, the whole aspect of the class screams exactly that, because it was designed like that, and it's fine. But it doesn't work in a world, where Warrior can turn and swing games as they want, can "heal" better and more efficient, with buttloads of armor-gain cards and still be the lead in terms of tempo and direction of the game. It's like trying to win a race against completely normal people with 2 legs, and priest is the disabled one with 1 leg and 3 arms.
Reverse the rarities of Purify and Onyx Bishop. It'll have zero effect on Constructed, but give Priests a badly needed buff in Arena. Then make Purify a 0 or 1 cost OR allow it to target enemy minions.
Brode said that after internal testing they decided to make it 2 Mana because it was 0 or 1 people would just put it into COmbo or Control decks to cycle and ignore it's intended effect.
+fighttothedead combo priest? wha? also 1 mana draw a card doesnt seem op and there is nothing wrong about it especially because it has a requirement that might be sometimes too much (for example your only minion is sylvanas)
Mine, yours and Noxious's video was right next to each other on r/hearthstone front page yesterday and then seeing Ben Brode respond just felt so good!
I like Brode's honesty with "we make cards that inspire and make people think rather than just be super amazing; this is what we planned with Purify." And I think the game should have that, even in the sense of the teaching experiment of "wait, Silence is 0 mana and Novice Engineer is just a 1/1 that draws a card. But Silence is so much stronger than a 1/1 card, how is Purify bad?" and then the people realize that Silencing their own stuff isn't that useful and they learn. The problem is that like 1/4 of Priests cards are in that category of "cool, interesting, inspiring" rather than actually being useful. Shadowbomber (aggro antithetical to Priests), Mind Vision, Divine Spirit + Inner Fire Combo, Resurrect, Purify, Convert, Confuse, Mind Games, Shadowfiend, just so many cards that get my inner Timmy going "wow, think of what you could do in this situation!" but just end up being terrible. That isn't even counting the cards that end up just not being good or bad, only the cards that seem more like the ability to create a Trolden-like moment 1 in 20 games.
after watching HS "Developement" for past years, seeing blizzard fail to slow down or influence meta in any way time after time and finally seeing the newest expansion I can conlude with big dose of confidence that blizzar simply cant design and balance cards. They just simply dont have anyone on board that can do this propely,.
Diablo should not have been broken and unplayable to begin with. Hearthstone has been fast paced for just about every meta the game has gone through. If Blizzard could not see that Priest desperately needed good 2 and 3 drops (since they have none), gave Shaman a card on the same broken level as Dr. Boom (4 mana 7/7) and developed absolutely terrible cards in an expansion that people have to pay for then clearly they have no idea what they are doing. Some cards are going to be better for constructed, while others for arena. Not everything can be good, but to waste space in an expansion for cards that will not be played because of the meta or just how terrible the card is then why bother making it in the first place?
This is fucking bullshit imo... "lets remove this from arena" only benefits arena-players.. what about us who actually ONLY want to play priest.. like me.. its dead :( i cant play HS until they make Priest better.
The existence of purify doesn't impact priest negatively in constructed because in constructed you have the option to just not put purify in your deck. Blizzard has made it clear that they don't want to remove purify because it is designed as a fun card rather than a competitive one. You complaining about purify being removed from arena only being a fix for arena players is stupid because it is only a problem for arena players.
+koolguy728 Says who? You? There is no real reason you can't just play one class in the game. I play primarily priest and rogue and I'm pretty sure i got as much enjoyment out of the game as anyone... Well until recently. None of the other classes have a playstyle I enjoy so I don't play them... Simple.
Blizzard must've paid him a lot of cash to make this video, what kind of a solution is 'Oh, we were stupid, so we'll make an excuse as to why we were stupid, and still keep a blatantly broken card IN THE GAME.' (meaning that if i were to buy the expansion I'd still have to get this stupid card, along with all the fillers). 'Guess what, we'll make a stupid exception to arena instead of changing the card due to our own hubris as we constantly have our noses in our asses' well done HS dev team, you really fixed the situation by sugar-coating it! worst fucking excuse of a development team in all of blizzard, honestly.
Maybe they didn't do much, but since the usual Blizzard response to things like this is to ignore the problem and the community and then only do anything about it MONTHS later, even getting a message from them right now is a huge improvement over what we had gotten before.
yea but just because they gave the standard of being incompetent and then suddenly aren't doesnt mean we should be fucking worshiping them, or it'll make them keep doing the same things with minimal response
Biggest change was no more auction house, increase in drops for legendaries. So you know, you don't just spend the game blindly farming gold, and you actually give a shit about stuff that drops on the ground. Also end game was straight trash in the past.
I have an idea that would give us an effect we have needed for a while and make the card at least have some potential depending on the meta. Choose One : Silence a Friendly minion or Unsilence a Friendly minion. Draw a card.
Better idea: Silence and heal ALL minions by 2. Make it a 3 cost card. No card draw necessary. It's a potential board clear or you can open the board for aggro minions by turn 5. Take for instance: Turn One: Light Warden 1/2 Turn Two: Flame Juggler 2/3 Turn Three: Squirming Tentacle 2/4 Turn Four: Eerie Statue Turn 5: Heals your minions, activates Eerie Statue, 2 mana for summoning an additional minion, using a spell, or hero power. And voila.
Why would that make it a Druid card? Just because it says Choose? I think we are enough set in that you can start bleeding a small amount between classes. Priest can have Choose effects, no reason they cannot.
to make purify awesome: make the text "return a minion to it's natural state. Draw a card." It's natural state being the state it enters the board: A minibot that loses divine shield gets it back, a 9/7 minion that received 6 damaged is healed back to 7 health, a silenced minion is "de-silenced" or if it received a buff, de-buff it.
Dickballs Mcgee dude I fight a douzen dummy/bolster but I could clear the full board of 2/2 at turn 2 (were bolster is played) cause I have 6 bot 6/6 at least (the weakest)
Kripp I am not really a great hearthstone player or deck builder but could you make a fatigue Druid with Malorn and faceless with nozoth?? Do you think that would work??
Brode and the design team seem to want the game to go in a very different direction than what the players want, and that's why shit like this purify outrage has happened
Fuck me, how many Legendaries does Kripp get? I've seen him open more Legendaries from the end of Arena packs in these videos than I'VE opened in the almost 3 years I've been playing now.
All streamers believe they are #NeverLucky. Really, most game players believe this. And most non-gamers. We believe good things happened due to our effort, and bad things happened from bad luck. Neither belief is particularly accurate.
this is the mediated responce i was looking for, thank you kripp for being the reasonable soul you are, your previous video contained a bit too much hyperobole for alot of the community and this should lessen thier bloodlust. Thankyou
look at moat lurker, I think bliz dev is pushing for that direction. But how good a deck will be if 4/30 cards are silence, will this give enough tempo to be a good deck?
Here's an idea, make Purify a Shatter-like card, or simply silencing a minion twice destroys it. It's still a two-card play and some Brann synergies exist. Like Purify is a 2-mana "Destroy a silenced minion".
ay lmao the parody was pretty dank. unicorn priest came to be in the end. also I can't wait for silence priest to be the best priest archetype in the game kappa.
Honestly, I'm glad that purify is in the game. I'm glad that it exists, just simply that. Because self-silence decks are kinda fun, not viable in standard b/c 50-75% of the deck rotated out with Naxx, but it's fun in wild. And purify makes that deck miles more consistent with having more silence cards, and helping turbo thru the deck faster with card draw. HOWEVER, this is a card that should have released in a big, actual card set with like 200+ cards. NOT one of the only 3 cards you get in an adventure. This was a time to get bombs. This was a time to get huge leaps forward in Priest quality. And this f*cked that over. So....yeahh, like the card, wrong time to release it.
About Blizzard adjusting theirs mistakes - it happend before in heroes of the storm. Devs listen to players very often. Once they invited few members of hots community to the studio to ask for opinion about future things they want to implement to the game. I think that was the first time Blizzard have done such thing and I think it's very 'good first step in this direction.
Purify could easily be a really intresting card, in my opinion, if it wasn't turned into a silence for convenience of programming. If the effect were instead to "restore a minion back to it's original state" that would make it a unique card, which could be compared to reincarnate, while not killing and resummoning the minion. Thus it would not trigger a deathrattle or summon effect, but would be able to attack (although it will not reset the attack or make a minion that has just been summoned attack) after being purified. Silencing something is an ailment, while to purify is to return it to it's pure form. This way it could even counter silences and debuffs, although it will remove buffs and reinstall abilities you don't want in the process. Sure, the combo with "cannot attack" minions won't work anymore, but priests have enough alternatives.
What if they made purify remove only negative effects such as: Can't Atk, -X , or corruption, etc... and made priest spells later on that gave a negative and positive effect like -2 atk +4 hp so when you purify it is just a +4 hp buff I mean if they changed a few things and worded it like such it could spawn a deck that is gimmicky in nature but wouldn't be useless and might be something fairly enjoyable and viable.
Can you play a minion from your hand and silence it immediately after that so it can attack in the same turn, essentially having a partial charge effect? That would be so cool and could also help making Purify a less bad card...
I was playing Evolve Shaman for fun and ended up with Silthilid Swarmer and Ancient Watcher on the field. Who would have thought I could have used a Purify?
Balance purify: 2 mana silence a friendly minion and resummon it. Draw a card. Gain 10 empty mana crystals. Discard your opponents hand and set a character's health to 1. Deal 1 damage to a random character (*italicized* 80% chance SMOrc *italicized ends*) I think it balances the card out right?
Maybe if Blizz adds some synergy with silence cards purify would have sense. Maybe a new giant 8/8 for 12 mana. Costs one mana less for each friendly minion that you silenced this this game. Or maybe a boardclear spell that does 1 damage for each silenced minion on board. Suddenly mass dispell could be usefull card.
I mean this card in a few expansions down the road might be useful in some way. Imagine if you had a 1 mana card called Shadow Soul or something, that made all your minions played this turn cost 3 less but also have a 3 attack debuff. Then you could tempo out some strong minions and purify them along with possibly the 0 silence too.
considering how silence priest is doing pretty well now it really puts into perspective what makes a card good, sometimes even if the stats are bad the sinergy can save a card, in the end blizzard didnt have to remove the card, they just had to make better "silence me" cards. (its still a good thing they disabled it in arena though)
A easy way to fix purify was to make it a portal card. Silences a friendly minion an summons a three mana minion. Some times you would get the equivalent of a toten golem with no overload and people could try to develop fun priest silence decks that actually win more than one game out of twenty.
Purify is so good in making people angry! Good job, blizzard
You don't seem so angry to me
johny Bender is right, you just seem slightly disgruntled.
Failerino Kripperino
wouldn't your name be better if it was angerino?
It's even better at it than Velen's Chosen or Deathlord ever were! What a powercreep!
Purify... if only it had purified the dead class
Hey, wow there
+Purifyerino Kripperino you should drinkarino bleacharino
Hey bro, some people are not dead, check your privilege #triggered
Imo, priest is the most boring and annoying class to play against. Kinda sad one of the classes i did well with in arena is now shit though.
Randombanana
True. all jokes aside i remember watching reynad and he talked about how he is glad priest is the worst because its the worse class to lose to. And i agree
This card makes me look great...
yup
Shure is
It makes your brother Amgam Rager look great!
well... youre not wrong.. somehow...
You are top tier card because it ignore silence
Power word: Shield + Silence = Better Purify.
Don't hate, appreciate
You lose a card.
+Abe Toecon you lose a card but gain 1 mana, 2 health on a minion, and can silence an opponents minion soooo
And you can clearly see Kripp was already running those in his Silence Priest deck. Adding more Purifies into the mix will help.
Just make it a 0 mana 0/0 battle cry : do nothing, it would be more useful
0/1 so it lives
it would be OP against some secrets. huehue
Well I don't like your negativity sir.
*0/1 cant be targeted by spells and can't attack, so it takes up space on your board
2 mana cycle > a card which does nothing. Yours Truly, Captain Obvious.

_Sorry for all the car references, but I thought they are the easiest metaphors to understand._
Well said. I think people were just expecting priest to get a little bit more and when they saw purify extreme disappointment followed.
Edward Fontaine ***** On another video I posted a similar comment and said they could have just given rogue, a quite functional class at the moment, a similar card that took me 10 seconds to think of and would have made more sense.

Yeah the whole "we make cards for fun" doesn't work when the cards that already exist keep the meta in a fucking aggro lock-down.
Arrakiz666 Agreed, Priest is just too reactive. The problem is, the whole aspect of the class screams exactly that, because it was designed like that, and it's fine. But it doesn't work in a world, where Warrior can turn and swing games as they want, can "heal" better and more efficient, with buttloads of armor-gain cards and still be the lead in terms of tempo and direction of the game.

First time i heard kripp saying "meme" strange feeling...
Kripp is the master of memes.

Reverse the rarities of Purify and Onyx Bishop. It'll have zero effect on Constructed, but give Priests a badly needed buff in Arena.
Then make Purify a 0 or 1 cost OR allow it to target enemy minions.
0 would be op but 1 or silence any minion makes it viable in a deck that is not a rank 26 self silence one

+fighttothedead combo priest? wha? also 1 mana draw a card doesnt seem op and there is nothing wrong about it especially because it has a requirement that might be sometimes too much (for example your only minion is sylvanas)
SuperS1ime
I'm just epeating what Brode said i don't agree with it either man. Just wanted to give insight on why they chose to do so.
+fighttothedead yeah, i know, saw that video... still doesn't explain this card
Mine, yours and Noxious's video was right next to each other on r/hearthstone front page yesterday and then seeing Ben Brode respond just felt so good!
"The cards, except for purify that got released are actually pretty good"
FINALLY SOMEONE SAID IT thanks Kripp
Thanks for giving a shout out to Rob! That's awesome :)!
Dude, i saw the thumbnail and was like "Did kripp, see the brucewillakers parody?" Kinda was hoping lol.
I was hoping he was gonna react to it lol
Apparently he actually watched it on stream.
+J Boi do you know when that stream was? really wanna see the reaction
It was like ~20hours ago.
+Giit Huub do you have an exact vod link ?
I like Brode's honesty with "we make cards that inspire and make people think rather than just be super amazing; this is what we planned with Purify." And I think the game should have that, even in the sense of the teaching experiment of "wait, Silence is 0 mana and Novice Engineer is just a 1/1 that draws a card. But Silence is so much stronger than a 1/1 card, how is Purify bad?" and then the people realize that Silencing their own stuff isn't that useful and they learn. The problem is that like 1/4 of Priests cards are in that category of "cool, interesting, inspiring" rather than actually being useful.
Shadowbomber (aggro antithetical to Priests), Mind Vision, Divine Spirit + Inner Fire Combo, Resurrect, Purify, Convert, Confuse, Mind Games, Shadowfiend, just so many cards that get my inner Timmy going "wow, think of what you could do in this situation!" but just end up being terrible. That isn't even counting the cards that end up just not being good or bad, only the cards that seem more like the ability to create a Trolden-like moment 1 in 20 games.
Saw brucewillikars parody just befordre seeing this video also whereabouts is skipperino
Before
same here, I acutely only found this vid because I am a huge fan of BruceWillakers and saw the thumbnail of this video
Love the thumbnail you used Kripp xD literally watched 'the purity of the cards' 3 times today and now im gonna watch it again after this.
after watching HS "Developement" for past years, seeing blizzard fail to slow down or influence meta in any way time after time and finally seeing the newest expansion I can conlude with big dose of confidence that blizzar simply cant design and balance cards. They just simply dont have anyone on board that can do this propely,.
After watching my favourite game run itself into the fucking dirt, I can confirm blizz is doing fine. Not the best, but fine.
Diablo?
Diablo should not have been broken and unplayable to begin with. Hearthstone has been fast paced for just about every meta the game has gone through.

This is fucking bullshit imo... "lets remove this from arena" only benefits arena-players.. what about us who actually ONLY want to play priest.. like me.. its dead :( i cant play HS until they make Priest better.
Go play wild then, priest is still playable there.
I lost to a guy at Rank 11 using Priest. You can still play the class
If priest is the ONLY class you want to play then you should pick a different game. HS is not meant to be played with a single class all the time.
The existence of purify doesn't impact priest negatively in constructed because in constructed you have the option to just not put purify in your deck.

It's a temporary solution. They said that themselves
He said in the video that this is the temporary solution.
I saw the parody video yesterday. It was truly incredible.
they admitted diablo 3 was shitty until they fixed it
What was even wrong with diablo 3? And what was fixed? I started at the beginning of this year and so far there has been nothing THAT bad in the game.
+Marcus Snall Oh you sweet summer child, good thing you didn't played it 4 years ago
Biggest change was no more auction house, increase in drops for legendaries. So you know, you don't just spend the game blindly farming gold, and you actually give a shit about stuff that drops on the ground.
Also end game was straight trash in the past.
Game was released 4 years ago, and fixed a while after it's release.
and with the "fix" came more retarded problems.
the thumbnail is worth all of the video
The resolution is 1920x1080
BruceWillakers' parody is about the most amazing thing I have seen come of this
Wait, C'thun synergy cards can't appear ? That means mage misses Cult Sorcerer ? :0
How is mage going to succeed in arena ?
They never had C'Thun cards in the first place?
"now"
"How is Mage going to succeed in arena now"
Fucking excuse me
Yup my bad, bad wording. Fixed it.
they are already broken as fuck tho
I have an idea that would give us an effect we have needed for a while and make the card at least have some potential depending on the meta.
Choose One : Silence a Friendly minion or Unsilence a Friendly minion.
Draw a card.
Nah. That'd make it a Druid card.
Better idea:
Silence and heal ALL minions by 2.
Make it a 3 cost card. No card draw necessary. It's a potential board clear or you can open the board for aggro minions by turn 5.
Take for instance:
Turn One: Light Warden 1/2
Turn Two: Flame Juggler 2/3
Turn Three: Squirming Tentacle 2/4
Turn Four: Eerie Statue
Turn 5: Heals your minions, activates Eerie Statue, 2 mana for summoning an additional minion, using a spell, or hero power.
And voila.
Why would that make it a Druid card? Just because it says Choose? I think we are enough set in that you can start bleeding a small amount between classes. Priest can have Choose effects, no reason they cannot.
+Patricia Cross choose is kinda like Druids special effect, just like healing and adding health is a priest effect
And yet Druid got the Healing spell in the cycle this time around and Priest didn't even get a card in that cycle at all?
to make purify awesome: make the text "return a minion to it's natural state. Draw a card." It's natural state being the state it enters the board: A minibot that loses divine shield gets it back, a 9/7 minion that received 6 damaged is healed back to 7 health, a silenced minion is "de-silenced" or if it received a buff, de-buff it.
I fell in a hole some days ago... But i'm back, and as I can see Priest is even worse now!
Can they exclude firelands portal from arena too? Or flamestrike... or the mage class?
If they reapeat the two cards tavern brawl... I am totally going eerie statue silence
Sry to slow
Still can't beat 0/2 Taunt + Bolster
robot : make you robot 1 less + robot : Give to you other robot +2/+2
this is the best combo (exept inervate Doomsayer)
+Bruno Scotto Target Dummy/Bolster and Frost Nova/Kezan Mystic both beat that deck. Sorry bud.
Dickballs Mcgee
dude I fight a douzen dummy/bolster but I could clear the full board of 2/2 at turn 2 (were bolster is played) cause I have 6 bot 6/6 at least (the weakest)
Kripp I am not really a great hearthstone player or deck builder but could you make a fatigue Druid with Malorn and faceless with nozoth??
Do you think that would work??
Brode and the design team seem to want the game to go in a very different direction than what the players want, and that's why shit like this purify outrage has happened
Purify should have been : "Cancel any buff/debuff applied to a friendly minion, draw a card"
karazan brings 44 cards + purify
That Zoo/Handlock was really funny to me for some reason. "He mixed up the giants"
Hah you used rob's video for the thumbnail, gg Kripp!
"We thought it might be too strong as a one mana card" -power word shield giggles in the corner-
Fuck me, how many Legendaries does Kripp get? I've seen him open more Legendaries from the end of Arena packs in these videos than I'VE opened in the almost 3 years I've been playing now.
Same.
Let's face it he's probably done more arena runs in a week than you've done in three years
Yet he is the neverLucky feelsbadman
you'll get ~the same number if you play 5 arenas every single day
All streamers believe they are #NeverLucky. Really, most game players believe this. And most non-gamers. We believe good things happened due to our effort, and bad things happened from bad luck. Neither belief is particularly accurate.
Before I even click play I can't express how happy I am that purify exist PRAISE ME MORTALS
Why are there no "erino" guys? I came 15 minutes late!

ay lmao the parody was pretty dank. unicorn priest came to be in the end. also I can't wait for silence priest to be the best priest archetype in the game kappa.
I asked Ben what he wants in life. He replied, "Purify"
The resolution is so good, it draws a card.
I wouldn't say an "amazing job". I would say... a satisfactory job solving the situation.
The value is incredible
Hd, just like all Hearthstone cards. But is the golden animation 60 fps?
No special cardback for preordering the adventure?
Best thumbnail ever.
Honestly, I'm glad that purify is in the game. I'm glad that it exists, just simply that. Because self-silence decks are kinda fun, not viable in standard b/c 50-75% of the deck rotated out with Naxx, but it's fun in wild. And purify makes that deck miles more consistent with having more silence cards, and helping turbo thru the deck faster with card draw. HOWEVER, this is a card that should have released in a big, actual card set with like 200+ cards. NOT one of the only 3 cards you get in an adventure. This was a time to get bombs. This was a time to get huge leaps forward in Priest quality. And this f*cked that over. So....yeahh, like the card, wrong time to release it.
I just played arena with priest earlier, just for fun and I got to 7 wins. I was so proud.
legend has it if your early kripperino will reply
Hey Kripp, are you going to try the WoW's new expansion legion?
I just watched the meme and I can't stop laughing xD Thank you Kripp, for blessing me with such comedy!
About Blizzard adjusting theirs mistakes - it happend before in heroes of the storm. Devs listen to players very often. Once they invited few members of hots community to the studio to ask for opinion about future things they want to implement to the game. I think that was the first time Blizzard have done such thing and I think it's very 'good first step in this direction.
you could... cast on a high attack minion that has changed to 1 / minion with corruption. isn't it useful that way?
I can't believe Kripp used that Kaiba head for his thumbnail lol
KrippO ITS THE KRIPPERINO, THE PURIFIER AND MYSELF MUST PURIFY YOU!! KrippO
Purify could easily be a really intresting card, in my opinion, if it wasn't turned into a silence for convenience of programming. If the effect were instead to "restore a minion back to it's original state" that would make it a unique card, which could be compared to reincarnate, while not killing and resummoning the minion. Thus it would not trigger a deathrattle or summon effect, but would be able to attack (although it will not reset the attack or make a minion that has just been summoned attack) after being purified.
Silencing something is an ailment, while to purify is to return it to it's pure form. This way it could even counter silences and debuffs, although it will remove buffs and reinstall abilities you don't want in the process. Sure, the combo with "cannot attack" minions won't work anymore, but priests have enough alternatives.
BRUCE YOU GOT NOTICED BY OUR KING HIMSELF
GRATS RAWB
The only way we can truly fix the game:
Hearthstone on Motorcycles
Silence priest is the Ben Brode Unicorn deck. That's why no one's heard of it.
kripp is the hero we deserve
The community wins! Kripp you are great!!!!
Super Kripparrian 64!!!! The best video!!!
Kripp, do you know what Reno is? Or renolock?
I hope some "Kripperino Kripperino" account links us to when Kripp said "Kripperino."
BRUCE WILLAKERS! :D Unforgotten Realms nostalgia.
It reminds me of a 38 slot crate for tanks in WoW back in a day... nostalgia :)
Petition for Kripp to create the Mulligan Wizard T-Shirt! We demand you make one Kripp and wear it!
Wow Kripp actually linked Rob's vid! His memes have made it!
What if they made purify remove only negative effects such as: Can't Atk, -X , or corruption, etc... and made priest spells later on that gave a negative and positive effect like -2 atk +4 hp so when you purify it is just a +4 hp buff
I mean if they changed a few things and worded it like such it could spawn a deck that is gimmicky in nature but wouldn't be useless and might be something fairly enjoyable and viable.
Great vid kripp!
Can you play a minion from your hand and silence it immediately after that so it can attack in the same turn, essentially having a partial charge effect? That would be so cool and could also help making Purify a less bad card...
no lol
It'd make priest as broken as Warrior.
Salty Dog + Silence + Faceless; new meta
Fel reaver?
I was playing Evolve Shaman for fun and ended up with Silthilid Swarmer and Ancient Watcher on the field. Who would have thought I could have used a Purify?
"You chose played 11 mana worth of cards in one turn. Isn't that against the rules?"
"Screw the rules! I have Kripperinos."
Balance purify: 2 mana silence a friendly minion and resummon it. Draw a card. Gain 10 empty mana crystals. Discard your opponents hand and set a character's health to 1. Deal 1 damage to a random character (*italicized* 80% chance SMOrc *italicized ends*) I think it balances the card out right?
The feel when first and no skipperino kripperino
That thumbnail is a perfect 7/7
I haven't even seen the video, but I "Liked" it just for the thumbnail.
Maybe if Blizz adds some synergy with silence cards purify would have sense.
Maybe a new giant 8/8 for 12 mana. Costs one mana less for each friendly minion that you silenced this this game.
Or maybe a boardclear spell that does 1 damage for each silenced minion on board. Suddenly mass dispell could be usefull card.
3:02 they did with Overwatch and i am suprised how awesome that delevoper team is
I mean this card in a few expansions down the road might be useful in some way. Imagine if you had a 1 mana card called Shadow Soul or something, that made all your minions played this turn cost 3 less but also have a 3 attack debuff. Then you could tempo out some strong minions and purify them along with possibly the 0 silence too.
Anyone know When they're updating deck recipes?
considering how silence priest is doing pretty well now it really puts into perspective what makes a card good, sometimes even if the stats are bad the sinergy can save a card, in the end blizzard didnt have to remove the card, they just had to make better "silence me" cards.
(its still a good thing they disabled it in arena though)
"we made a bad card, but some players like to win with bad cards" quote from ben
Impossible challenge: Keep your finger in Kripp's nose for 3 seconds
A easy way to fix purify was to make it a portal card. Silences a friendly minion an summons a three mana minion. Some times you would get the equivalent of a toten golem with no overload and people could try to develop fun priest silence decks that actually win more than one game out of twenty.
The parody was amazing, made my day. xD
