Hearthstone Mercenaries Leveling Guide – Fastest Leveling Up & Upgrading Mercs, Farming Tasks & Coins (Updated for Mysterious Stranger Nerf)
You need heroic though to finish task 7, which gives equipment.
Highlander Mage - #62 Legend (Geometer) - Galakrond's Awakening
So I disenchanted my Lunas Pocket Galaxy way back when they reverted it back to 7 mana (from 5). Now, all the lists include it still but I dont really want to craft it since it is rotating out. What card do you suggest to replace it with that is equally as successful? I have all the carda except the legendary spell.
Galakrond's Awakening Adventure Guide - 35 New Cards, Four Chapters, Launches January 21!
Hi Stonekeep. Do you have any news whether the new adventure will pan out in the same format as Nax, BRM, LoE, and ONiK? Or will it be following the more recent format?
Nerf Patch (16.0.8) Coming Later This Week - Nerfs to Fiendish Rites, Scion of Ruin, Ancharrr, Dragon's Pack, Invocation of Frost, Necrium Apothecary and Dragonqueen Alexstrasza
Agreed. It is okay to increase the power level but please Blizz, you gotta make it fair to all classes. Some classes have cards that are outrageous while Priest have a reduce 1 cost to cards on hand invoke support equivalent. Also, Necrium Apothecary? This card is bonkers. It feels like old Cube Lock or even Malganis decks in the past.

Except Priest though. Priest was a mess in the Dragon Year, with only Combo Priest (which is an archetype of old) that made it survive. Their League of Evil Representative has a bad card unlike the others who are playable, and their Galakrond is so meh. Value? Yeah let the class focus on Value other than focusing to Win using the Value generated.

Agreed. Plus, Quest Priest isn’t really a good deck when put against other decks in the other metas that existed. It only is good because it stops Midrange Decks from domination, which is more than half of the decks being played atm. Once meta shifts, so is Quest Priest’s presence.

Hmm, pretty standard nerfs. Tweak the cost here, tweak the cost there.. but hey, Dragon’s pack is now weaker with the card text changed.
Titanic Lackey
But mage isn’t the lackey class. This lackey is actually nice though adding a lackey spoils the aggro gameplan a bit – which is fine by me.
Conjured Mirage
Though this can only endure 10 damage as opposed to frost nova that completely negates enemy oppression. Furthermore, it is a minion which can be targetted by removals, unlike frost nova wherein you completely skip your attack phase (except if you have charge in a non-full board setup).
Conjured Mirage
I don’t think it will be the best card but it might find some uses to stall out aggro for a turn while you wait for your removal.
Conjured Mirage
Hopefully it does, since turn order should still be in effect basing on each card’s description.
Wrapped Golem
Yep. It is like saying Onyxia is a 9 mana 14/14, which would make it a totally different minion that answers the call of different types of gameplay and removal.
Wrapped Golem
Well this card is basically better due to its stickiness. Remember, Obsidian Destroyer was a 7/7 with the same effect, but having no Reborn makes it susceptible to almost any type of removal. This card is a little bit better due to the fact that you have to deal with 2 bodies, which will either cost trading minions into it, or spells which trades up more cards for it to be entirely removed than Obsidian Destroyer.
Plus, it is a neutral card. Obsidian Destroyer was a Warrior specific card. If the latter were neutral, there would be a higher possibility that it would’ve been used.
King Phaoris
Oh, and I see this as a Priest card? Tech in Mind Control and high roll for a Colossus.
King Phaoris
Well, when dropped on curve, it’s going to be a beast for sure. But the longer the game progresses, the worse it become.
Spells are generally used to contest the board. I don’t see this card as being played as a last hurrah card unlike N’Zoth due to the shrinkage in spells by the time you really need it.
Holding unto spells instead of playing them for your own board advancement is a dilemma, but having the right tone of greediness would make this card more effective.
Flame Ward
Now mage has answers to almost anything. Wow. This card is bonkers. So good.
I just don’t get how this card works. I understand the new keyword, but this specific cards says to Give Undead in your hand +2/+2. What? Give AN undead or Give UNDEADS? Confusing.
