7:45 Funny enough, that was actually a thing in Yugioh Duel Links. There was this skill that basically said "If you play these two cards in your deck that you don't want to draw but need for your combo, they always start the game with all copies of those cards at the bottom of your deck and you get this third card that needs those other 2 cards in your deck." What players would do is max out on those 2 cards in decks that don't even care about them just so they effectively start the game with a 14 card deck. They nerfed the skill by removing the part that stacks those cards to the bottom because the consistency boost from playing a 14 card deck was just disgusting.
7:45 that's what America Chavez was in Marvel Snap, unironically. A card that was always at the bottom of the deck so she ABSOLUTELY counted as a -1 card on an already small 12 card deck. Nowadays they've changed her, though.
AF Kay is giving me the same vibes but in the opposite direction of what happened a decade ago in Magic the gathering. Basically the devs thought they were printing an absurdly strong token generator and with that in mind, they gave another seemingly random other card an extra point of toughness and trample. A sort of balancing act to give it a chance against this hypothetically “First Response” token deck. Non of the devs thought anything of this so we’re just as surprised as everyone else when Siege Rhino became the face of Khans of Tarkir standard and just the Meta king of MTG standard for the rest of its time in it. Oh how the butterfly effect rolls on.
The biggest issue with A.F.Kay is that if the card is already on the board, there's almost no reason not to attack with it, unless it dies to a taunt or has 2 attack or less. If it has more than 2 attack, you just lose out on overall damage (i.e. if you attack with a 6 power two turns in a row, you get more damage that attacking once with an 8 power, the discrepancy grows as the power goes up)
Probably why it was nerfed 3/3 makes it to much of a threat since your whole plan is aggro, but on the fly suddenly can choose to play defensively without the need to trade.
I think the idea was that if you evolve a creature that already attacked, it is now a new minion with ZZZ, therefore it will still get buffed by AFKay because it technically didn't attack? That would explain why it's in a shaman deck. But yes, anything that doesn't have summoning sickness and isn't getting transformed should almost always still attack if it can go face or there is a favorable trade. Still seems like a bad card, because you will rarely get more than one turn of value from her (at least on your whole board, maybe from single new minions you play - if she lives) and the attack value from one turn of AFKay is way less than just playing a temp bloodlust, which gives value the same turn it's played and on a full board is often enough to just win already.
The editing on these videos reminds me of the old glory days of Firebat content, the perfect blend of raw gameplay and fun stuff. Love to see it, keep up the great work Rarran
@@shrekkek9396 not at all, it makes it cost more resources to remove or gets to do it's effect a lot more often, despite what people say in most games things don't just immediately die
If A.F. Kay instead read “When you summon a minion without Rush or Charge, give it +2/+2”. She would be functionally the same in most circumstances and I think the playerbase reaction would have been a lot better even though this version is strictly worse.
how is this version strictly worse? you get minions buffs every turn by playing smart. you can hold off attacking with a weakened minion to make it harder for your board to be cleared. its super strong combined with the healing totem. really limits the kind of board clears that can save your opponent
@@thek838The reaction would be better because it sounds stronger. This version is much worse, but you won’t get the idiots saying that you need to actively not attack to get buffs from her.
on shaman if you drop afkay on turn 5 its seems really strong, especially because shaman gets ahead early on board with the overload mechanic and if they dont answer it on turn 5, they most likely loose
I feel like its all psychological, if your enemy underestimates AFK they get caught off guard by her potential buffs, if your enemy focuses her they might give an opnening for your other cards
AFK reminds me of Boogeymonster. Its the "why would I do this thing to make my minion bigger when i could actually be doing damage and getting closer to winning?"
@@SmashCentralOfficial yeah but that's Rarran doing it for the content. This shaman deck with the Pop-up Book taunts and the Transforming effects squeezes out a surprising amount of value for AFKay I didn't expect to see
Rarran I feel so vindicated rn. I was so confused why you said she was awful during your card review because I felt that any class that can summon tokens for cheap (Shaman/DH/Paladin) can synergize so easily by just playing them on the same turn as AF Kay, such as you did with pop up book. I still don't think she's busted (she's okay maybe strong) but her pre-release nerf makes a lot of sense. Thank you for making this lol I was going crazy
I thought the whole hate on her is because it she didn't buff the turn minion was played but that isn't the case. I can see why +3/+3 on every minion could be broken.
this literally just shows how slept on and actually good wave/wish shaman HAS been for about a month. That spell rolls half my games turn 4 or 5. Everyone wants to play druid and warrior tho. Good thing they get rolled by it too
I've been doing an Arena run where my legendary is A F Kay while watching this funny enough. Another thing to keep in mind with this is Razzle Dazzler. I had a play where Razzle Dazzler gave me 4 5-drops with one of them being A F Kay. After that, since they all were just summoned, all four of em got +2/+2. All for just 7 Mana. That said, that might not be the EXACT Combo that got her nerfed, but if you roll A F Kay with Razzle and you've played even MORE spell schools, then ooooooooooo buddy
Deck is pretty solid but I’m much more worried about that pirate-token-aggro shaman at the end. Uses similar tools even if afk doesn’t make the cut and gets to slaughter you with pirates
Also, any transform effect would let you attack then get buff. Its probably best in unholy DK from how sticky their boards get. Reborn would all get buff if they died too
I'd prefer if they kept +3/+3 but changed to "buff minions who could attack, but didn't" so there would be a cost to the buff of missing an attack instead of just benefiting from swarming the board and trading buffed minions
Holy crap I can't believe how your chat didn't all say shaman. I would have put money on shaman without thinking for a second.... though that's probably because I've been playing a ton of flood shaman in the past month.
Meh people playing this game often sleep on decks that could be better with a bit more support. That spell school discount card seems to be very strong for the strategy.
I was already planning on using her for my OverHeal Priest A couple "Hidden Gems" just pumping up in the shadows Actually excited for this expansion specifically cause of AFK
@@shrekkek9396you do realise 90% of board based decks are win more decks for the reason to win suddenly out of nowhere in current HS? Now afkay might be a worse win more card than most but it is alright in some very specific decks. (I have no concept of what standard looks like i only play wild and every deck that isnt an OTK is board based so suddenly gaining 12/12 of stats on a wide board in one turn can just win a game)
@@zZSleepytimeZz do you even get what win more means? If card requires you to have a board it's bad. Card should do something when you are loosing, not when you have a board. And it will never gave 12/12. It costs 5 mana and it won't survive a turn so the only way for it to buff anything is to play it on a later turn where boards get cleared instantly.
@@shrekkek9396 that is why i said i play wild, it is very easy to get a full board with an afk on like turn 8. Grave strength DK is one of the stronger board based win conditions in wild, it does nothing if you dont have a board already in play but it has very sticky minions to pull that off. Just because something (untested) is bad in standard doesnt mean it cant be increadebly strong in the right wild deck.
Tbh I thought her been 5 Mana would make her really hard to use but she seemed fine with this play line can imagine she would be pretty good at 3 Mana.
I think they should have keept +3/+3 buff but change condition to buff only units that were capable of attacking be buffed (so no sleeping/frozen units or 0 attack units buff)
Who is the original idiot that put Wave of Nostalgia into a deck that is intended to abuse AFK? "OH MAN, first I'm going to build up a board of taunt minions! Then, I'll play a 0 attack 5 Mana legendary that buffs all my taunt minions!! And then on the next turn after that, I'm going to play a 5 mana spell that completely replaces all my buffed creatures with a bunch of unbuffed worthless trash!!!" Great gameplan.
If your only wincon is only AFK, you just lose if she’s in the bottom half of the deck without any tutor or extensive card draw. Obviously you aren’t supposed to use Wave of Nostalgia if you _have_ AFK, it’s there to play _instead_ of AFK, if you have the wide board setup cards but not AFK herself.
I just realised that if you get sneeds from wave of nostalgia, it should only be able to generate standard legendaries from the deathrattle, right? So you can't get sneeds from that sneeds?
I think deathrattle and other effects where changed at some point to not include themselves in the pool of possiblities, unless specifically mentioned.
10:36 think its about how it works even if u play other minions the following turn with summon sickness while i though and most prob did too is she only works if u where able to atk but chose not too or that u can just kill it has a 0/5 but in reality u never want to kill it the turn its played so u get a full turn with cards and giving everyone +2/+2 at the end outside of those u atk?
even after the video i belive afk is very bad the meta will be hyper aggro and maybe some 1 shot otk stuff there is no way u can build a board with those cards vs the removal that is in the game and even a +3/3 wouldnt change that
How to you make a deck with two class cards I see this deck with demon hunter and shaman cards in the same deck I want to make this deck but I can’t online
It woulda been funny if you'd lost the game starting at 15:05, because it would mean the only thing that can beat the AFK deck is a spell that steals AFK and uses her power against you.
AFK seems so terrible compared to transforming the board. Like AFK needs to live and you can’t attack, compared to Wave where you can attack and you get ‘better’ minions at full health instantly
@@blahthebiste7924That is not what worst case scenario means. That would be a spell that says “give all friendly minions you summon this turn +2/+2 at the end of the turn” aka basically just one trigger of her effect. Also you can only buff up to 6 minions instead of 7. Unlike a regular buff, you can’t use it for Rush/Charge minions for board control/face damage that turn, nor can it save minions from potential AOE damage you want to use like Hellfire. The only pro it has compared to an immediate, unconditional board buff is that it can buff minions summoned at the end of the turn if they trigger first, like Moroes in this video.
I'm betting she was nerfed because when you Evolve into her, she buffs your whole board of evolved minions (since they didn't attack). I doubt you're supposed to play her in your actual deck and intentionally skip attacking.

AF Kay is giving me the same vibes but in the opposite direction of what happened a decade ago in Magic the gathering.

I doubt you're supposed to play her in your actual deck and intentionally skip attacking.
blizzard love nerfing shaman so much the did it before the expansion even came out!
A.F Kay + Freeze spells? 🤔
After playing for some time... I think she got nerfed because of her being too much of a highroll from razzle dazzle
Maybe if the game wasn't 5 turn phone game swiper fast you could use it in your games.
Im in my 30s: Banjo Kazooie is a boring game. I said it.
