The payoff for a 10 cost Kazakus card is soooo good

Started ranked and already ran into a god awful annoying priest who had all the new legendary & epic cards. Wasn't expecting to lose to dragonfire board clears twice in a row.

How does he work? What sorts of spells can go down?

When you play Kazakus, you get to choose if you want to make a 1 mana, 5 mana, or 10 mana spell. Then you choose 2 separate effects for that spell to have. So, as an example, earlier I made a 10 mana spell that did:

Transform all minions into 1/1 sheep, and add 3 demons to your hand.

You can read more about the other effects here: http://hearthstone.metabomb.net/game-guides/hearthstone-custom-spell-guide

How does everyone like the game right now? Meta still seems to be somewhat in flux...lot of Reno and jade stuff

I'm loving it right now. Slugging it out at rank seven with Reno Priest. Control can actually win in this meta. Seeing lots of different classes and decks. Kazakus is ridiculously fun. I'll be really disappointed when Reno rotates out of standard.

I have a pretty good record I feel like against it. 2/4 taunt helps. Drawing Reno = instant win. I carry both ooze and Harrison.

Jade Druid is a struggle.

I'm just glad priest doesn't suck anymore. I played pirate warrior to rank 10 and then switched to dragon priest. Currently sitting at rank 8.

Last night I had a pretty decent run with Reno lock. The odds were in my favor...twice an opponent played dirty rat and missed pulling out my Reno, and twice a dirty rat of my own totally f-cked the opponent.

Actually pulled this off in arena today. Can't believe I got to draft two. Needless to say, he conceded next turn.

Went 12 wins with the deck. Only pulled off the combo the one time.

ok, new most incredible bullcrap loss in hearthstone.


Back and forth with a devolve/evolve shaman vs. my "play 50 rogue card" quest deck. Clear his board with dark iron skulker.

He's at 7, I'm at 5. I have lethal on board.

Topdecks that 6 mana battlecry deal 3 damage to my face. Evolve. baron geddon. eot 2 aoe damage for lethal.

Next turn play a couple more jade cards and you're back to having board control.

There aren't enough jade cards in shaman decks.

So question on Kazaxus card, does spell order matter? If I choose deal 6 damage to all and then summon my 8/8 demon, will I have an 8/2 demon afterwards or an 8/8?
redline248
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
You'll have an 8/8 demon. The summons will happen after damage. I also think if you choose summon as the first option, and damage as the 2nd option, the damage still happens first.

I think, but am not sure, if you choose summon + give your minions health, the health happens last.

It has the same amount of jade golem summoning cards as the other classes (3 per class plus the two neutrals.

However, with all of the different death rattle effects in the rogue death with potential of putting multiple copies of cards that bring in more golems in that deck as well, shaman golem does seem to be lagging a tad bit. You almost have to have a bran out to get the same synergy as you have in both the Druid and Rogue decks.

Druid is the only one that can really get the overwhelming value

Just checked...I picked 8/8 demon and then 6 damage. The potion is smart. Board clear and then he was looking at an 8/8 demon about to smash his face in.

The health happens last as well!

Or just patches and play pirate warrior. Beat those druids down before they roll out the golems.

*full disclosure, I hate that pirate deck



Phone is causing posting issues tonight :|

Haven't lost to pirate warrior in a while with my current druid build.

I started playing a few months ago. I am having fun but trying to get above level 18. Still working out strategies and card formations. Still missing a ton of cards as well although I have bought all of the expansions and have those cards.

My favorite thing to do right now is to use Brann Bronzebeard and Kazakus together, then pull him back (Brewmaster) and use him again that will end up giving me 3 potions. I also use Brewmaster with Reno as well.
