With sleep with the fishes you know what you kill, so it's less RNG. It can kill a minion even if it's the only one on board. I wouldn't say that all warriors will have 2, but there are clear upsides as well as downsides in the card when compared to brawl and execute.
3:12:55 thats not how he works. ALL targets are chosen randomly including cards in your hand, you wanna play 1 card but you randomly pick other card and play it, you wanna play hero power you activate randomly one of 2 hero powers (your or your opponents) you wanna cast a spell you randomly target concede button
The potion of healing is also awesome if you get it from the triclass cards and you are playing warlock because it compensates a lot of the damage you take because of cards like hellfire or the new 6 mana potion
Is there much difference between Meanstreet Marshal and Runic Egg? Surly Runic Egg requires a buff just like meanstreet Marshal but the draw is guaranteed.
You forgot that Celestial Dreamer also synergizes with Jade Golems because it's really easy to get big minions. I still don't think it's good enough to take a slot in golem decks, but 1 star is a little too harsh?
Day9 was probably right about Raza, too. Zero mana hero power sounds good, till you realise you'll most likely have mana left over on your turns to heal for 2 mana anyway.
3:16:08 weasel tunneler his quite strong just because it kills any reno/kazakus deck put 2 of this in any agro and you are pretty much sure that they are gonna hate you for quite a while
Sam McManus getting 2 of them is pretty easy considering it's a 1 drop that you can get with a dark pedler you don't have to draw 2, plus it reduces the quality of the oponent deck anyway but crushes the dreams of kazakus, getting it on turn 1 to 3 is pretty good since you can weave it in your curve but later in the game (when it is in your oponent's deck) it is actualy really big when it's drawn instead of the huge late game legendary or a combo pices... plus that hat is awsome
synchi64 If you plan on choosing it out of dark peddler you shouldn't run dark peddler and if they draw him straight away they are just going to put him back into your deck
Sam McManus it's not my plan to choose him from darkpedler, i'll chose the best option and versus slower deck it's most of the time the best option... but right now there is only frikin' face warrior soo... yeah...
I feel like Amaz refuses to acknowledge that, if you're playing the "hand buff" archetype, you're playing a slow deck. And slow decks need really good ways to protect themselves from aggro decks.
To be clear, I was getting at how he was underrating the Paladin 3 mana 2/2 taunt divine shield lifelink, and the Warrior 5 mana 2/7 taunt armorlink. Those cards benefit nicely from the handbuff archetype, and the handbuff archetype benefits nicely from the added defense.
how is pint size potion worse than shrinkmeister? it's better imo since while you're stealing their minion, you're also debuffing all their minions and trading into them with your other minions. maybe not good in a control priest deck that has a super high curve, but in dragon priest it's working well for me. i basically always have a wyrmrest agent, kabal talonpriest, and twilight guardian on the board by the time i play the potion. and the potion really helps compensate for these minions' low attack stats. if they play a minion with 4 or 5 health like tomb pillager or thing from below and i have three minions with 3 or less attack, i don't really want to trade them all in since i can only heal one per turn. in fast matchups vs. aggro it is a strong tempo play, increasing the potential of your taunt minions. and in control matchups it enables your shadow word pain and cabal shadowpriest. shrinkmeister on the other hand... gives priest a garbage body it can't heal, and only debuffs one minion, and for a higher mana cost.
I dont know if anyone mentiond this before, but weasel tunneler can mess up Cabal reno themed decks. If u manage to shuffle two tunnelers into their deck, reno mechanics might fail if they dont draw the a tunneler
Well only because priest doesn't have that many versatile removal cards. That's not saying entomb is incredibly versatile, it can target most minions, but that 6 mana cost is pretty steep. Other classes can choose from terrific options such as fireballs, polymorphs, hexes, lighting bolts, soulfires, shadowbolts, and etc, while priest gets entomb, holy fire, mind control, and smite, which are just not good enough in an aggro to midrange matchup. You can also argue that priests have shadow ward death and pain, but those aren't versatile.
Michael Verde just because its played in every priest deck, doesnt mean its good... priest is the worst class right now because of its shit removal like entomb..
Well it;s not like Entomb is the only execute card priests have eh? And honestly, "killing a card without activating deathrattle or trigger "when this minion takes damage" while at the same time giving your deck another really good card" VS say Rogues assassinate.. I´d pay one mana for that trade up aaaaanyday, and entomb is in a class stalls the game anyway. Sooo, ya.
I sometimes don't get how you review cards, for example your Devolve assesment forgot totaly that Grimy Goons may be a thing, it's an excellent card against that archetype...
I love blizzard, they basically went "oh well rogue is shit, lets just give them other bad cards that can give them other classes cards that are actually good! Great! :3" When they notice that didnt work they went like "eeh lets just give them a coin, maybe miracle can do something" XD
why amaz is krul zero stars you can put malganis and those demons in renolock too it is similar to nzoth in nzoth decks and bad deathwing in dragon decks
Potion of Poly is better against the likes of Antonidas and Auctioneer than Cairne or Sylvanas, as it removes the opponent's combo potential for that turn. It's better than Mirror Entity for that, too.
I think you're wrong about sally. a) while it does need a second card to be good, that card can be multiple things - a dark iron, an abusive, a power overwhelming, a rockbiter, a flame tongue etc. so the chance of having at least one is very high in that kind of deck. b) the combo with power overwhelming is actually insane 4 manna hit them in the face for 5 and then flamestrike, like how is that not amazing. zoo is all about board control and you definately have board control after that :L
but you can discover good situational card like again flare against freeze mage or secret hunter, pal. you will never put flare in your deck but some times you just need this "1 star" card. I want to say that discover mechanic is no so bad and sometimes even better than draw card from your deck. (sorry for my bad english) (Im Korean from Russia and was born in Uzbekistan)
I don't understand the idea of Your opponent doesn't want to attack this it will almost certainly die unless it is a situation that it is worthless to kill it like setting up for lethal
hey cmon guys im not saying its good, but i am saying its not as bad as he makes it out to be. It only has the body it does because bgh used to be a thing. its not just 9 mana 6/8 draw two cards, its 9 mana 6/10 draw to cards and demands an answer. Believe it or not i made it to legend with dragon priest a couple months back and won a lot of those games with chromagus. If he lives just one turn, you might as well have won the game.
DarkSteel I agree with you to some degree but I just think that there were a few cards better in the deck than him and now that gadgetzan is out he will almost certainly see no play
speaking about priest vs freeze mage i got alexxtrasa from his deck and auchenai flash healed face twice, then he send me the friend request to tell me how much i'm noob

The legend says if you're early Amaz appears!
nice try
Amaz Hearthstone noice cant wait for tomorrow :D noice video as always
Amaz Hearthstone so hype!! I've got a full pot of coffee brewing already and I'm hitting the packs the second they release...thanks for the ratings.
thanks guys ;)
that coffee is gonna last 12 hours lol?
Loving that "dunt" sound effect for the rating stars
Very helpful video Amaz, and the description with timestamps is fantastic. Thanks a bunch.
Hey amaz! Want some pudding? It's on the house! (Spoons not included)
Hey Amaz! Enjoyed your review, great job!
Can't wait for the Aladdin expansion.
Holy crap a 3 hr video
I can't wait until the meta for this format is decided :P so many of amaz's ratings seem way way off
Especially sleep with the fishes. I'm guessing every warrior will run 2.
wat? why would anyone run two of those in the class that has allready 'Brawl' ? Dafuqq did i just read?
With sleep with the fishes you know what you kill, so it's less RNG. It can kill a minion even if it's the only one on board. I wouldn't say that all warriors will have 2, but there are clear upsides as well as downsides in the card when compared to brawl and execute.
I was waiting so hard for Amaz's 4th MSoG card impression , goshhh !!
that ad distribution is op
3:12:55 thats not how he works.
ALL targets are chosen randomly including cards in your hand, you wanna play 1 card but you randomly pick other card and play it, you wanna play hero power you activate randomly one of 2 hero powers (your or your opponents) you wanna cast a spell you randomly target concede button
Drakonid Operative has given me so many lightning storms so far. Love it.
establishes a 1-5 star rating system, always gives out 0 instead of 1. love you amaz.
Amaz is revealing the entire set this time? How lucky!
Kashmir Wahl I'll leave you to decide
Tim Robinson .
Fattyfatster123 .
The potion of healing is also awesome if you get it from the triclass cards and you are playing warlock because it compensates a lot of the damage you take because of cards like hellfire or the new 6 mana potion
control warrior is all about armor,that's why you use justicar so you can tap the hero power everytime so alley armorsmith does the same thing
It's not about armor, it's about value. Justicar is infinite value.
Foook that, Wisp is infinite value.
HighLanderPony its infinite tempo, zero value
Sobanya Someone's never heard the Wisp joke. Plus, it's not even zero value lol.
HighLanderPony Not sure who could not hear this wisp shit. But it's wrong
40:07 "Next we have a Stolen Balls"! XD
33:26 he never really mentioned how usually you heal for atleast 6. And if you buff it you can heal for a ton
The possibility with Weasel tunneler is if you shuffle 2 copies in your opponents reno deck making it so they can't use their reno/kazakus!
Amaz what do you think if the piranha launcher is a 4/2 weapon that summon 2/2 piranha instead of 1/1 ?
That would be op
Wisnu Brata Too op
that would be ridiuluous
Were you the one who helped design the shaman cards?
get out of here brode
Still 30min into the video but gotta say: agree with Small Time Recruits. This + hand buffs + divine favor + divine Shield minions will be so good.

Is there much difference between Meanstreet Marshal and Runic Egg? Surly Runic Egg requires a buff just like meanstreet Marshal but the draw is guaranteed.
Watching a 3:15h video just to watch the packopening. So this is what I am doing with my life.
Hey Amaz! Nice Review :-)
just one question: Does Sir Finley into Justicar work? I think Justicar gives a power up on your starting hero power.
TheDagroable Justicar works with sir Finley because she buffs any basic hero power
Awesome!
Does the dispatch kodo (13:24) also do more dmg if you have attack enhancing minions on the battlefield?
I think it's like C'thun, battlecry triggers before any board buffs applied
but it work with C'thun
bram tjaah Yes, it does. If you have like Leokk, its also +1 damage. Best Card of the entire expansion imo.
domeplsffs ye it will, battlecry is after the minion is played so it will work
Jonh 10 player Huh... weird. For example Kezan Mystic steal Mirror Entity, and not be copied..
That's dedication!
Can't wait for a good murloc aggro paladin deck to take shape
You forgot that Celestial Dreamer also synergizes with Jade Golems because it's really easy to get big minions. I still don't think it's good enough to take a slot in golem decks, but 1 star is a little too harsh?
where i can get all "5 star" cards list?
Day9 was probably right about Raza, too. Zero mana hero power sounds good, till you realise you'll most likely have mana left over on your turns to heal for 2 mana anyway.
Wouldn't Grimestreet Informant have been better compared with Jeweled Scarab rather than Novice Engineer?
No
any thoughts on Taunt warrior?
i dunno i feel it could be good (maybe a bit slow)
its random shit
3:16:08 weasel tunneler his quite strong just because it kills any reno/kazakus deck put 2 of this in any agro and you are pretty much sure that they are gonna hate you for quite a while
synchi64 waste two card slots with the potential to ruin a few decks in the game then u have to draw both of them in around top ten
Sam McManus getting 2 of them is pretty easy considering it's a 1 drop that you can get with a dark pedler you don't have to draw 2, plus it reduces the quality of the oponent deck anyway but crushes the dreams of kazakus, getting it on turn 1 to 3 is pretty good since you can weave it in your curve but later in the game (when it is in your oponent's deck) it is actualy really big when it's drawn instead of the huge late game legendary or a combo pices... plus that hat is awsome
synchi64 If you plan on choosing it out of dark peddler you shouldn't run dark peddler and if they draw him straight away they are just going to put him back into your deck
Sam McManus it's not my plan to choose him from darkpedler, i'll chose the best option and versus slower deck it's most of the time the best option... but right now there is only frikin' face warrior soo... yeah...
synchi64 Slower decks wouldnt suffer it tbh
I feel like Amaz refuses to acknowledge that, if you're playing the "hand buff" archetype, you're playing a slow deck. And slow decks need really good ways to protect themselves from aggro decks.
NightChime hunters struggle against other mid range decks especially with the new jade golem decklists
NightChime yeah hand buffing cards are over rated, its too slow, and youre playing vanilla minions that dont do anything the turn theyre played
Jordan Tran yo guys are right... i will crush those kids with my tempo warrior
To be clear, I was getting at how he was underrating the Paladin 3 mana 2/2 taunt divine shield lifelink, and the Warrior 5 mana 2/7 taunt armorlink. Those cards benefit nicely from the handbuff archetype, and the handbuff archetype benefits nicely from the added defense.
You have knife juggler. your opponent has only a 1/1. you attack the 1/1. you get a 1/1 piranha. knife juggler kills the 1/1. what happens?
ilmu011 the universe collapses
ilmu011 what??
ilmu011 i think it spawn the piranha after the attack to prevent shenanigans like this
U should be able to Attack again if that's how the piranha launcher works.
Angelo Arcaini wouldnt it then say "after you attack..." ?
25:40 I can imagine how chat looked like when he said that.
MuffinLoL gay kappa pride
2:07:50 summon a 2/2 on turn 3? I'm happy with coining out my 7/7... thanks tho
2:52:33 - Amaz's dream destroyer
whirlwind + sleep with the fishes = 3 mana flamestrike. OP.
i feel like smuggler crate will work in a yogg-beast-locknload type deck lol
how is pint size potion worse than shrinkmeister? it's better imo since while you're stealing their minion, you're also debuffing all their minions and trading into them with your other minions. maybe not good in a control priest deck that has a super high curve, but in dragon priest it's working well for me. i basically always have a wyrmrest agent, kabal talonpriest, and twilight guardian on the board by the time i play the potion. and the potion really helps compensate for these minions' low attack stats. if they play a minion with 4 or 5 health like tomb pillager or thing from below and i have three minions with 3 or less attack, i don't really want to trade them all in since i can only heal one per turn. in fast matchups vs. aggro it is a strong tempo play, increasing the potential of your taunt minions. and in control matchups it enables your shadow word pain and cabal shadowpriest. shrinkmeister on the other hand... gives priest a garbage body it can't heal, and only debuffs one minion, and for a higher mana cost.

Inkmaster Solia into custom spell from Kazakus?
I dont know if anyone mentiond this before, but weasel tunneler can mess up Cabal reno themed decks. If u manage to shuffle two tunnelers into their deck, reno mechanics might fail if they dont draw the a tunneler
I think Magma Rager needs nerf.
5/0
Also add "at the end of your turn, give this minion -1/-1".
What happens if your play shadow form + justicar?
Nothing. Justicar only interacts with basic HP's.
I feel like amaz didnt see the potential with the new warrior cards. Aggro face warrior might be a top tier deck
Jordan Tran i was thinking same, as an warrior main, i went from control to dragon war, to tempo one... guess its time to shout ARRRRRRRR
Jordan Tran a Lul
Anyone else waiting for ladder to reset?
K-Master I'm waiting for the expansion to come out
Holy An Well, it's basically the same thing. At least at the same time
Tamarin Triggered I'm assuming in two hours. Give or take a bit
K-Master When the ladder resets, the expansion also comes out?
Holy An Well, that would make the most sense. To me anyways. It comes out the same day so it would be efficient to do everything at once
Entomb is a 2-star card?? C'mon man, 2 copies are probably in 90% of Priest decks.
Well only because priest doesn't have that many versatile removal cards. That's not saying entomb is incredibly versatile, it can target most minions, but that 6 mana cost is pretty steep. Other classes can choose from terrific options such as fireballs, polymorphs, hexes, lighting bolts, soulfires, shadowbolts, and etc, while priest gets entomb, holy fire, mind control, and smite, which are just not good enough in an aggro to midrange matchup.

I´d pay one mana for that trade up aaaaanyday, and entomb is in a class stalls the game anyway. Sooo, ya.
Michael Verde he said situational cards dipshit
Michael Verde his opinion on cards are shit
rat pack sergeant synergy
the meta is going to be really crazy this month mainly because people trying to find the new amazing deck
dat description Kreygasm
I sometimes don't get how you review cards, for example your Devolve assesment forgot totaly that Grimy Goons may be a thing, it's an excellent card against that archetype...
The best review was for worgen greaser 2:40:33
I love blizzard, they basically went "oh well rogue is shit, lets just give them other bad cards that can give them other classes cards that are actually good! Great! :3"
When they notice that didnt work they went like "eeh lets just give them a coin, maybe miracle can do something" XD
3 hours.. time to put it on 2x speed
Dat Pack Rat from Magic.
why amaz is krul zero stars you can put malganis and those demons in renolock too it is similar to nzoth in nzoth decks and bad deathwing in dragon decks
wait, you'll be able to play grim patrons this expansion, grimy goons + grim patron. Kreygasm
disagree with the priest 2 drop but w/e xD ty amaz
Potion of Poly is better against the likes of Antonidas and Auctioneer than Cairne or Sylvanas, as it removes the opponent's combo potential for that turn. It's better than Mirror Entity for that, too.
did anyone see the context of devolve?
Rat Pack meta defining lol
Why did you not even talk about comboing celestial dreamer with jade golems
3 hours PogChamp
Alexandr P more like WutFace
3:04:00 You do not know his name, hm? You shall learn...
I think you're wrong about sally.
a) while it does need a second card to be good, that card can be multiple things - a dark iron, an abusive, a power overwhelming, a rockbiter, a flame tongue etc. so the chance of having at least one is very high in that kind of deck.
b) the combo with power overwhelming is actually insane 4 manna hit them in the face for 5 and then flamestrike, like how is that not amazing. zoo is all about board control and you definately have board control after that :L
yeah when lotus agents gives the druid a doomhammer...
small time recruits should be 3 stars, as it is very situational
Devolve would annihilate other Jade Golem decks when they over-extend.
Damn give this guy some credit he literally talked for 3 hours straight 😂
Bolvar worst legendary? What about Hemet?
wouldthe buff still on when getaway kodo is triggered?
audio difference?
but you can discover good situational card like again flare against freeze mage or secret hunter, pal. you will never put flare in your deck but some times you just need this "1 star" card. I want to say that discover mechanic is no so bad and sometimes even better than draw card from your deck. (sorry for my bad english) (Im Korean from Russia and was born in Uzbekistan)
firelands portal and the bomb squad, deal 5 damage, summon a 2/2 that deals 5 to your own face when it dies, just played a 7 mana bomb squad haha
I don't understand the idea of Your opponent doesn't want to attack this it will almost certainly die unless it is a situation that it is worthless to kill it like setting up for lethal
I think Buffminions + C'Thun is gonna be a thing
Muklas Champion not really... really slow vs new aggro pirate decks
Amaz, could you start playing ESL elder scrolls card game its super fun pretty please??
Master Splinter no, make more hs content
Boogiler Billy?
don han cho and shadow caster
how can a guy talks for 3 hours non stop, thats insane
3 hours is pretty insane... Is like a university talk that was not boring lol
Amaz feels like a university professor
i can manage 3 min
pantry spider OP
Amaz, you are using old version of Murloc Warleader in this review (20:37). Shame on you :P
What happens when you devolve 0 cost card 🤔
Oskar Kleimola maybe some secret interaction (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Oskar Kleimola When you evolve 10 mana cost cards, nothing happens so i suppose nothing happens if u devolve 0 mana cost minions
Can "I know a guy" give you al'akir or tirion ?
i disagree with chromagus being a 1 star card.... so long as you play it in priest lol. I always hold a power word shield to combo with it.
DarkSteel can combo well with ine card in priest must be 5 stars11111111111
DarkSteel youre using 9 mana to play a 6/8 body draw 2... this meta you barely even hit turn 10 now, you die before you can even "combo"
hey cmon guys im not saying its good, but i am saying its not as bad as he makes it out to be. It only has the body it does because bgh used to be a thing. its not just 9 mana 6/8 draw two cards, its 9 mana 6/10 draw to cards and demands an answer. Believe it or not i made it to legend with dragon priest a couple months back and won a lot of those games with chromagus. If he lives just one turn, you might as well have won the game.
DarkSteel I agree with you to some degree but I just think that there were a few cards better in the deck than him and now that gadgetzan is out he will almost certainly see no play
I agree with that. I was playing a sort of card advantage grinder dragon priest and chromagus was kind of like a second ysera
Paladin and the angry chicken
collin Roberson ...that's scary
just buff angry chicken or even worse warrior angry chicken buff
Cool review, but saying combine together is redundant. :P
Actually Magic is one of the few card games where you can't attack into enemy monsters.
in pokemon you can only attack other ''monsters''
Dirty rat 1 Star :D (2:52:00 aprox)
imp gang boss 4 star?? best 3 drop in the game
Yat yi sam sei oh yes we do have lethal
speaking about priest vs freeze mage i got alexxtrasa from his deck and auchenai flash healed face twice, then he send me the friend request to tell me how much i'm noob
mini tyrion op
2:06:13 That's a card
a lifelink ....
So close tho
Wait they all get a 5 star rating?
just get to the neutrals lol
FrancyCakes I was just making a joke on the way he said "and give them all a 5 star rating"
oh ic
