@@Arrakiz666 Just because he isn't an auto include doesn't mean there isn't an issue around the card. If you do play him, there likely is some combo where you can get a bunch of fireballs in your hand on the same turn, which leads to uninteractive gameplay. While Van Cleef can get big, it wouldn't be as much damage as an archmage can do over the course of the game, if killed the next turn.
@@mfpaint-j5s True to a degree, but this is definitely the biggest gap in power I've ever seen, as someone who's played since 2014. My memory isn't the greatest, but while there have been some crazy powerful sets before, this one takes the cake by far.
@@mfpaint-j5s Nah, Alterac sucks powerwise compared to United in Stormwind Same thing happened in the past with Rastakhans rumble too, idk what you were thinking here
Tbh they’re introducing glide BECAUSE of all the combo potential in this expansion. It’s smart. I don’t want control decks to just disappear because combo decks flood the ladder
freakymoejoe2 The mage combo needs to have the apprentices be 1 mana, and it’s very unlikely at that stage in the game for Antonidas to last more than 1 turn on board. If they cast Glide after the potion turn, the mage has no hope of winning through that combo.
@@Gorbgorbenson I'd argue that against an aggro deck, which is pretty much the only archetype Demon Hunter is really ever gonna fit unless they print some ridiculous cards (even more so then now) is not a deck you aim to get the combo off against anyway. Usually combo decks just try to outlast aggro decks.
Seto "Draw your last pathetic card".. Yugi: "My Grandpa's deck has no pathetic cards, but it does contain the unstopable EXODIA!" Seto: "Impossible, no one has ever been able to summon him!" Etc etc, Combo decks are just a part of every Card game, Doesn't mean other decks aren't valuable, just means they need to strategize and include cards to disrupt Exodia.
When that potion card popped up on screen I paused the video to bitch to myself about exodia mage getting another piece. Then he breaks it down and I cry.
tysej4 Yeah, but other card games also struggle with convos because it stops the fun rogue decks and experimentation. Inhibits deck building because you suddenly have to run cards to not instantly lose the game. Which in and of itself is it’s own toxic meta
@@ARedJoker True true, but that's basically the trap every card game falls into, you can't please everyone. Not saying to give up or it's hopeless but this is just natural progression for a newish card game, honestly Hearthstone is slow to encounter these issues because they stayed very vanilla in the past.
Regarding the exodia mage combo Instead of playing both potions only Play the First. Then Play your two apprentices and then Play the final Potion. It will give you the Same amount of apprentices in hand for the Same amount of Mana but it leaves two extra apprentices on your Board which reduces all current spells by 4 which makes it easier do Deal with your opponents current stuff
for infinite ice block you could have: educated elekk, ice block, 2 spells that cost 4 or less that can kill the elekk, one generic spell that costs 3 or less, an aluneth in play. Every turn, you play elekk, block, and the two spells to kill the elekk and put 4 cards into your deck. Eluneth draws 3 and your normal draw draws the last one. If they dont pop the block, you play the other generic spell you have to get to 4 cards in deck to avoid fatigue damage. A setup like this would pretty much be a guarenteed victory/draw over time: ice block, educated elekk, 2 frost bolts, primordial glyph, aluneth in play. Also, hoard pillager could potentially help protect vs weapon removal. The rest of the deck would just be trying to turbo draw/stall into that setup with 10 mana available.
Yeah, the ä could have been a little shorter and more similar to an e but I think he mostly stretched it out because he had to prepare for the unfamiliar ch sound that followed it.
In Swedish you say a version of it too that is undoubtedly easier to pronounce than either German or French: "elefantminne," though I have only heard it used a few times. I imagine it's only European languages that have a version of it though, I would be surprised if Asian/African languages used it too
@@svenservette4197 how is it racist at all? Most European language families have evolved from the same small number of ancient languages, whereas most Asian and African language families either split off early on or have completely separate origins. Romance languages, for example, can be traced back directly to Latin. Germanic languages don't come directly from Latin, but most Germanic languages have adopted much from the Romance languages over time (with English and the Nordic languages being the most obvious examples of this). Further, many modern linguists believe both language families are derived from a broader Indo-European language family that is basically the origin of most modern Western languages. Languages that use the Coptic, Armenian, or Cyrillic scripts are derived from ancient Greek (I believe, at least), which Latin also took influence from, which explains some of the similarities between Eastern and Western language families (most obvious example here is Caeser/Czar/Kaiser). Most Middle Eastern and Indian languages also come from Indo-European, but split off so long ago that almost all similarities they once shared are long gone. Chinese was likely created independently and so shares little to no similarities at all with the Indo-European proto-family, and neither do Japanese, Korean, or any of the other eastern Asian languages that are based on Chinese. I don't know enough about Sub-Saharan African languages to comment on them, but AFAIK they were also developed mostly independently and so likely don't share the same idioms. Mesoamerican languages (the only other independently-developed written language) come from areas of the world that do not have elephants, so I find it highly unlikely that they share this phrase. I'm far from an expert on linguistics, but hopefully that shows that my comment was based on some kind of knowledge, not hate. I encourage you to look into the history of languages on your own. Also, most of this is based on the history of written language (which only developed independently in Mesopotamia, Mesoamerica, and likely China; it arguably also developed on Easter Island but there is very little proof for this). Still think my comment was racist?
@@isaac.farrell Don't overthink it, he was most likely joking. I mean this is a Trump hearthstone video, who do you expect to meet in the comments? Anyhow what you said was not racist in any way, shape or form, you just pointed out that elephantminne is shorter than Mémoire d'éléphant, which is an objective fact.
I was just watching top custom cards of the week and I legitimately forgot this wasn't custom cards of the week for the first few cards before i realized he wasn't rating them
"Elephant never forgets" was in the Disney Junglebook in the 60s, and in sweden I think I've only ever heard it there or quoted from there. However elephants are also smart, so they do most likely have relatively good memory.
For the potion of illusion combo, you totally could play the two girls after the first potion of illusion, but before the second one. This would cost the exact same amount of mana but also give you the full discount for any other spells you might want to play that turn.
A copy of Educated Elekk is pretty great for control decks that want to win in fatigue. It's a 3 mana 3/4 so it's gonna help early game against aggro/midrange if you just drop it down and get some good trades with it, and against control if this thing remembers 4 spells, now you're 4 extra turns away from fatigue. If you play it on an empty board and cast a few spells with it, it already has those spells, and if your opponent has no rush minions to kill it and ends up needing to kill it with a spell, that's another spell in your deck.
Completely disagree on Educated Elekk: You've highlighted here that otk combo decks may well be a possibility, if you're filling the deck with what you need to get there, Elekk gives you the possibility of using your spells, especially things like swipe, when you need to stabilise, while maintaining the ability for your otk to come together. Or in a more general scenario, any spell you wish you could run more copies of, or are on the fence about 1 or 2 copies, Elekk gives you flexibility to get more of what you need. I think it'll see a decent amount of play in any decks that have very powerful or integral spells.
Holy heck I think I came up with a good OTK Druid deck. U start by playing Omu into Maeiv to make it dormant. When it awakens, you okay ysiel into germination on Omu. Then you play your malygos into any spell. Now you can play a ton of damage spells into card draw spells to get even more damage
@@riccardodellorto4267 so you need elekk, spell damage+3 and 3 specific spells I think the anthonidas is more reliable. though being annoying with infinite ice block and waiting for them to draw to death could be fun.
Here’s the play with Omu: Omu, germ, maly, moon fire, germ again, swipe, swipe, moonfire. That is 45 damage or maybe replace the last moonfire or swipe with a star fire for an extra 15 damage
Not even a week since the release of Rental Girlfriend's ending and we already have a Trump version? Damn, Jens, you are a beast, and a weeb, but a beast.
Does anyone know where Jens gets the background music for the videos from? I really like them and would appreciate a link (to the specific tracks used, I'm aware he posts the website links but I don't know which track to search for).
Educated Elekk + Potion of Illusion + Iceblock + Snowflipper Penguin + Aluneth That's the wild combo that allows you infinite iceblocks. Interestingly, it's most consistent counter is probably just your opponent playing nothing and letting you draw to death. Still, a really fun concept.
Some small design things annoy me about this expansion; fx. Argent Braggart.. yet the Argent Dawn/Crusade didn't exist while Scholomance was a school and draenei hadn't come to azeroth
Next your going to tell me that Karazhan was not host to a disco party hosted by Medivh because Hearthstone is a very accurate source of warcraft lore (Also Featuring Rollerskating Draenei)
True but word of God is that HS exists in its own continuity, hence fun and goofy Medivh, Ragnaros uncorrupted, all of Mean Streets of Gadgetzan and many more lore-unfriendly events and characters. Basically, they do whatever they want.
@@lhumanoideerrantdesinterne8598 If you consider this is a major tavern inside WoW, its actually quite lore-friendly haha. I roleplay like that, at least.
The thing that makes Argent braggart interesting and potentially good is that it doesn't match the attack and Health, it says Gain on it, so its attack will always be 1 higher than the highest on the field and same for it's health. So if there's a 5/1 and a 1/8 on the field it will be a 6/9 for 2 not a 5/8 as you stated.
@@murlocaggrob2192 Yes, but legendaries used to be situationally useful, now you need like ~5 to play any reasonable deck. And don't get me started on control decks which also need a lot of epics.
@@Arrakiz666 What era of Hearthstone are you talking about? You remember Whispers of the Old Gods meta? The top deck was named Wallet Warrior for a reason.
@@Arrakiz666 Nah, I bet there would be crying babies like OP who can't even figure out how many legendaries are out there for each class saying 'b... b... but if some legends are situational If I get one it CAN be bad. Blizzard sucksssss'... lmao. You guys can't stop being negative about everything? And no you don't need to play 5 + legendaries for a decent deck, there will be aggro to counter all that combo.
Educated Elekk is definitely one of those cards that is going to create some spicy wild combos. Just imagine this with super powerful spell generation in rogue + brann shadowcaster (or equivalent).
You can even do, apprentice apprentice for 4 mana, 2 mana potion of ilisuion, 1/1 aprentice aprentice for 2 mana, then cast the second potion of illusion for free, all for a neat 8 mana, and can get the 4 mana spell reduction that turn, while still having 4 apprentices in hand for the combo
@@user-hv6gi9ux6z That's why you need research project, you are drawing those cards and not taking fatigue. The only one issue left is way to kill your elekk
The thing that makes lord barov somewhat balanced is that it's not a 1 card board clear within the same turn. You need to either wait a turn or play a second card to destroy barov/deal 1 damage AOE. It's still really strong, bordering OP status, but realistically it's a 4-6 mana 2 card board clear combo, which has been done before.
Potion of Illusion seems fine, it maybe should be 5 mana just to make the combo a little bit harder to execute. Then you would need 10 mana and a whole turn to make 4 apprentices. Leaving you with just 2 mana spells to use on the same turn (that would be free), instead of a 4 mana one.
Actually its always super funny hearing other people talking about Germany. And its true in this case. In Germany the phrase is widely known and people really believe elephants are never forgetting anything. Btw the probunciation on that one wasnt even that bad. Even without looking or knowing what you were talking about I would have fully understood what you were trying to say. Accept for the part with the "ch" which kinda sounded like you were having a stroke.
4:14 "I don't think I was exaggerating when I said that Lord Barov was just a card that maybe perhaps is worth like 5 or 6" You weren't exaggerating. You were wrong. He's complete trash at 5 or 6 - even 4 would be quite weak. At 3 he's fair or maybe a bit on the strong side. Also, why mention the skipper? Skipper into Barov is using the skipper as a whirlwind. Just go straight to Barov + whirlwind. Either way, it's not a bad combo, but not too unfair.

Will Sm .05 cents have been deposited into your Battle.net account
Turn 4 Snapjaw + Turn 5 Magma Rager and Argent Braggart= Legend.
“High Priestess Alura” - 2:18
should i preorder?
Is the background music in these videos from the game "Wizard of legend"?
Is the background music from crosscode!?
If you made a new account right now would it be hard to make a good free to play deck?
Good Job on the Elefantengedächtnis word!
Next try: Oachkotzalschwoaf.
As a german I must say that your pronunciation of 'Elefantengedächtnis' was perfect...
So this re-upload means Proffesor Trump confirms my request for a one-on-one tutoring at my home?
*wink wink*
Educated Elekk is definitely one of those cards that is going to create some spicy wild combos. Just imagine this with super powerful spell generation in rogue + brann shadowcaster (or equivalent).
You can even do, apprentice apprentice for 4 mana, 2 mana potion of ilisuion, 1/1 aprentice aprentice for 2 mana, then cast the second potion of illusion for free, all for a neat 8 mana, and can get the 4 mana spell reduction that turn, while still having 4 apprentices in hand for the combo
Exodia mage is back!
9:54
With sorcerers apprentice and research project you can go infinite and kill your opponent with fatigue
The spells require elekk to die and the spells are in your deck. Not hand
@@user-hv6gi9ux6z That's why you need research project, you are drawing those cards and not taking fatigue. The only one issue left is way to kill your elekk
@@piotreus5631 Good ol Fireball?
Get four apprentices on board with the potion thing, then play your Elekk and go to town
New combo:
Speaker Gildra + Coin + NOOOOOOOOOOO
Aight... Will dual class cards be usable in paladin paladin?
Yes
How many freaking legendaries does this set have?!?!?!? This video was exclusively legendaries and epics.
High Abbess Alura might actually create some sort of big spell paladin or even big spell pure paladin.
There is some Prankenhieb missing in this video
Is that the Kirby's Dreamland theme music in the outro? :O
I didn't understand the combo. Can you draw it in paint? \s
Can anyone tell me the title of the song in the background? It is so familiar but I cant place it.
what song is that in the background?
The thing that makes lord barov somewhat balanced is that it's not a 1 card board clear within the same turn. You need to either wait a turn or play a second card to destroy barov/deal 1 damage AOE. It's still really strong, bordering OP status, but realistically it's a 4-6 mana 2 card board clear combo, which has been done before.
I'm ootl, what's spell burst?
Best outro... period
Alura: we expect great things from you
Me: i expect great things from buff Paladin/Priest
Trump: combo stone back?
Glide: lol good luck
Yo mage seems lit asf, combo potential AND infinite value potential too , dang
please tell me I'm not the only person who saw "elefantengedächtnis" and immediately thought of that robot from Fireball
These cards are all so powerful! This is not "power creep", this is a "power bulldozer" that wrecks other expansions
Oh cool, uploaded 10 mins ago, this is my lackey day, btw I love your vids Trump
That elephant remembers ALL spells cast while it's in play
So you can bait out removal and GAIN answers for later
Potion of Illusion seems fine, it maybe should be 5 mana just to make the combo a little bit harder to execute.
Then you would need 10 mana and a whole turn to make 4 apprentices. Leaving you with just 2 mana spells to use on the same turn (that would be free), instead of a 4 mana one.
what is spellburst again?
I wonder what interaction will happen for the 1/1 copies aftet activating the old quest.. I'd be sad if it had the same effect as Sonya
professor slate + unleash the hounds, would that work?
No. That's because the spell doesn't deal damage but summons minions
Card that duplicate card : *exist*
Mages : *happy fireball noises* *happy fireball noises* *happy fireball noises* *happy fireball noises* *happy fireball noises*
Music in the background sounds so much like I’m about to go find some Pokémon
Oh my god Wild is going to become so crazy..I like
Argent braggart is going to rule arena from release until the day it rotates out
Actually its always super funny hearing other people talking about Germany. And its true in this case. In Germany the phrase is widely known and people really believe elephants are never forgetting anything. Btw the probunciation on that one wasnt even that bad. Even without looking or knowing what you were talking about I would have fully understood what you were trying to say. Accept for the part with the "ch" which kinda sounded like you were having a stroke.
The yugiho meta returns
4:14 "I don't think I was exaggerating when I said that Lord Barov was just a card that maybe perhaps is worth like 5 or 6"
You weren't exaggerating. You were wrong. He's complete trash at 5 or 6 - even 4 would be quite weak. At 3 he's fair or maybe a bit on the strong side.
Also, why mention the skipper? Skipper into Barov is using the skipper as a whirlwind. Just go straight to Barov + whirlwind. Either way, it's not a bad combo, but not too unfair.
Because nobody users whirlwind, that's why. And because you can draw skipper more often thanks too Ancharr
Libram Paladin should be strong enough now
Does Speaker Gidra survive Earthquake?
