The unique thing about this miniset is that it's pushing a specific archetype rather than generic cards that aren't constrained to a single type of deck which previous minisets have followed, meaning that if the Protoss/Zerg/Marines playstyle doesn't work then NONE of the cards will ever see any play.
It also pollutes the pool of randomly generated cards. You can easily get cards that are awful/useless because they require you to play other protoss spells, etc.
I think that is explicitly the intent. clearly they are trying to calm things down before rotation.
@@MaxRenkewhich will mean that if they fail, the cards that survived rotation will still be on top. It's a pretty bad plan tbh
TBH this card is good even stand alone in druid for 7 mana you get 2 3/4 with charge 3 mana each basically, 5 armor and an HP that grant divine shield to you and a minion
Not really because there’s always select cards that see play for all sorts of reasons
No views in 2 minutes, I've totally fallen off
I'll redeem ZeddyFall on stream in honor of this momentous occasion
You were on? Haha jk man
Don’t worry I’m here now
You just feel like a whole different UA-camr if you dont shout ”BLIZZZZZARD!!!!” as your intro
It’s mostly because we have to mentally prepare for your pronunciation of SC terminology.
As someone who loved Starcraft, this is absolutely in theme with Starcraft. The names, the abilities, what they do in Hearthstone matches what they did/provides in Starcraft.
I wish they have a spell for psi storm
I feel like this deserved its own expansion not just a mini set
@@cuihenggang 1 mana - deal two damage to ALL minions, can be repeated this turn up to 3 times.
An aura that makes all your minions cost 2 less technically makes them weak to devolve except that it probably doesn't because Blizzard card text usually leaves out information like "get the chosen card", "from 3 randomly chosen ones", "in your hand" or "random".
This is far better than I was expecting and crazy for druid who can already ramp so fast right now.
Time to construct additional pylons
No, is not spooky.
i like that this mini set in general only works with the miniset it self, very specific everything
if zeddy gave 5/5 rating you know this one will be bad
I don't see how a card that gives you 2 3/4s with CHARGE, easily worth 3 mana each, and 5 armor, and an amazing hero power is ever going to be bad.
Oh wait, did I mention it has a crazy UPSIDE for playing protoss minions? This card is pretty decent in a deck that plays 0 protoss minions, if protoss minion archetype is good, this card is insane.
My life for mana cheat
😂
Oh man it's good to see Artosis and Tasleless again, they were the best commentators in SC tournaments, amazing duo.
I like that they chose Artanis art that shows both a blue blade and a green blade. Could be a fun way for someone to learn about some of starcraft's story beats
All Protoss minions should come with Divine Shield to represent their force shield. StarCraft has actual spells and abilities that can count as spells in HS. But they are turning some minions into spells. I would have made the Photon Cannon a 2/3 minion with a continuous effect of dealing 2 damage to the first enemy to attack. It's to represent its shooting at anything in range.
3:12 no way is bro complaining about shadow stepping zealots...
7:37 It's *power* is truly *overwhelming* . 😅
interesting way to balance the game, just make everything broken
Mana cheat ramp toss druid is gonna be hella fun
you can theoretically play this earliest turn 2 with druid. druid gets the 0 cost spell that discounts ANY protoss card by 2, then coin + innervate x2. yes thats a highroll but you can still do it by turn 4 rather easily without innervate.
Blizzard: How much powercreep do you want?
Players and their mothers: YES
M-mothers? 😢
I often wonder, especially with other competitive games that have crossovers, if it's inevitable that many of the characters or cards would be pretty OP. i'm particularly thinking about supersmash brothers brawl ultimate and the bonus characters in that and how crazy some of them are
Finally! been waiting for this for ages now !
For incredible that its look i think artanis is still a slowdown on the powercreep
I hate the fact that he doesn't feel like a priest or mage card at all. None of his effects sounds like a mage or priest effect.
Artanis and Warpgate/rogue pirate will discount rogue's templars by 5, which means Sonya can generate multiple archons after Artanis is played. Or blink spell+pirate. It will be interesting to see the math of all the ways rogue will destroy me...
It will be fun to see Zeddy play Priest
I honestly dont know if I like or hate this card, and this miniset in general. What I liked about hearthstone is that each class has a different kind of flavour and, I know this was lost a long time ago when priest became agro and hunter became control, but this hero doesnt make much sense to me for the classes its targeting, besides the reducing cost. I dont know, we will see how it goes.
Artanis deserved a whole video aloneee
The Artanis hero card is significantly more powerful than Jim Raynor, imo. It’ll be interesting to see what effects and hero power they’ve given to Kerrigan.
Seems much weaker to me tbh, there’s not gonna be many protoss minions and the hero power seems weak
@@PrabhDhilWith Charging Zealots, High and Dark Templars, (plus Sonya); Rogue’s got all the Protoss minions it needs.
turn 5 artanis that is scary
Turn 4 with New Heights for Druid.
Turn 2 with 2 innervates and coin
I would say Artanis is probably fine at (7) mana because it's similar to an Inzah-like effect, which is kinda useless until you draw it and might be worthless by that point...
BUT, Druid exists.
Shadowstep isn't my concern. Every card that bounces back will result in 1 or 0 cost zealots with charge back to the hand. Any duplication or bounce back should be pretty strong.
If Artanis doesn't say my life for aiur i'm gonna be piss :D
Why would he? Artanis wasn't a big fan of Aiur and tradition in general
@@becausecontextmatters5260 i forgot who says who its been a while since i played starcraft, but the zealot on the other hand it might say it :D
He doesn’t while attacking. It would’ve been awesome if the zealots said it.
@ nor even when you summon it?
Artanis is good even if you ignore the discount in some decks has its 6 face damage and a great heropower
This might be enough to make me play druid again. It's my main class, but I have 2500 wins with it so I'm trying to focus on other classes these days.
Man i started playing right before dr boom release. I miss those days..the masters tour qualifiers on battlefy. The games felt better. The community felt better. Im done with this game and have been playing less and less for months now. I miss when i would play for hours and hours and never get sick of it. This was my favorite game ever and now its nothing
Artanis might see play outside of protoss decks, he still summons 2 3/4s with the ability to act instantly. Divine Shield on heroes isn't to be underestimated either
Can you use this Hero Power if you don't have a friendly minion on your board?
It doesn't need to give them charge. Why the hell do they have charge?
Oh no they gave Artanis his canonical power.
I'm afraid for what Kerrigan will have since its the favorite child of blizzard
Do I need to comment every card reveal or just the very first one?
Either way I'm hyped and hope I win the contest. :D
Just the first one, check the description on this video, there is a link
the card that up atk give by druide hero power work with him? and if you give your charge minion 10 atk with that isn't that just win?
I feel like I've seen a lot of cards that claim to do things with my Protos minions, and not a single Protos minion I'd be all that excited to play.
I mean druids piece is absolutely crazy, but it is 12 mana, so shrug
Colossus seems good
Blizzard lied about lowering the power level? What a shock.
Its a great hero power, bit historically all hero cards have had a ton of power to close out the late game, plus that mage minioon just reminds me of Cthun, and cthun was so bad it got buffed by 2 mana.
Card text doesn’t say hero power is limited to only protos minions 🤔
Hearthstone is just absurd now and I love it
Zeddy control decks need win conditions.
Also since the mana reductions are limited to protoss cards it's fine.
Control decks have an obvious win condition, fatigue. Welcome to card games
@@grizzly311tr lol
The green blade from artanis is the sword from zerathul :c very sad story
These iconic Starcraft characters deserve to be broken.
A Druid going second can coin, innervate, double pylon, and then play Artanis turn one. 1 in a billion scenario but would be so tilting
you can't double pylon, it on itself is a protos card
And what will artanis turn 1 even achieve? 2 fine minions and an empty hand? I'm not sure it's that good even if it was possible
gonna get ready to die to charged zealots over and over then.
I can't wait to see how this works out... good or most likely bad. xD
This would be a silly hero power in Kingsbane.
So Hearthstone is doing Secret Lair too huh...
We did it, we broke Shadowstep 🎉
A hero power that gives divine shield to your hero seems absolutely bused. Buh-roken, in fact.
Yeah, they never did something like that before right....
Al'akir crying in the corner while reading this
@@iuricunhamurakami8261 You had that paladin legendary spell that gives your hero divine shield after you play a holy spell, or that 1-cost spell that can give divine shield x3
There have been zero hero divine shield effects that have been good.
its like they always want to lower the power level for all the classes except for the 4 that are part of protoss they always the most broken besides Warlock ofc
I love Rogue and I love hero cards! This is sweet!
I don't know, it doesn't seem that bad even without any other Protoss cards: double 3/4 Charge is nice and the hero power is nice even out of that context (also, Shadowstep on the Zealot is still valid even without any other Protoss card).
I remember when OTK meant you killed from 30. You use it all the time lol.
Artanis looks nuts.
Artanis isn't broken, you are!!
Do u think druid players will use protoss cards or they gonna keep playe taunt deck
They would summon carrier from dungar and that's all.
Now this is a card i would spend my money on even stand alone is quite strong
Druid Artanis turn 3 going second
Mass mana cheat for all of a faction is wild.
Isn't shield primarily a Paladin keyword?
Kind of, but other clases do get it sometimes, and it fits protoss really well
Protoss in SC always have both their base health and an energy shield/secondary health bar. This mechanic doesn't really exist in HS so Divine Shield is a good substitute.
Power Overwhelming!
Thank God the discount is a Hero Aura, imagine we had 0 Mana Protons! The game would become incredibly unbalanced, thankfully Blizzard makes sure that we have to spend Mana to play cards.
hilarious that a hero card with the hero power to give away divine shields is given to 4 different classes. none of which are paladin.
Man where’s my favorite class’s reveal ??? ( yeah literally by Ranked Wins, it’s by far my most played class)😂😂😂 Maybe Tassadar ???
Classes dont get their own hero cards. Artanis is the hero card for all 4 Protoss classes. Some Protoss minions we havent seen yet could be Tempest, Mothership, Adept or Stalker off the top of my head so those are very possible.
Artanis nerf to text: 1 mana less incoming
I am honestly very disappointed with both the game and the mini set. Games gonna last 3 minutes in 2026...
Did the devs ever say that they were actually trying to actively lower thw power level long term? I feel like no
If you play another heroe card like Reno lone ranger. This aura effect its gone?
It's a battlecry so I think not
The effect should remain because it says "this game"
@@conradsmight2220 Yeah i get is battlecry. Just confuses me when the battlecry texts ends. If zealots are the battlecry only or the whole text.
@IgnisNatus the whole text I assume, most other heros like this have their whole play effect be the battlecry
@@KrimsonSpeed Lol you're right. I feel like zeddy reading cards xD
I think this goes up to 9 because of Druid again, a in less capacity cus of rouge. Two classes u never want to see combine.
I dont see this competing with hand buff paladin it seems so slow
Oh boys... All embrance the Meta: Turn 3 New Highs, next turn Artanis (cheating with new 0 cost protoss spell).
i know its rotating but artanis + groovy cat...
I like this set so far
1 mana zealots can be played with sonya. Isn't it cool zeddy?
hey hearthstone I remember that game! hey starcraft I remember that game!
There were too few complains about mana cheating so lets make permanent discounts of minions.. I mean they caught lot of people with Starcraft, but do we really need mana discounts on every 3rd card of this miniset? :)
Turn 5? Mean Turn 2 for druids.
That card gonna go to 10 cost because of Druid
Also in Rogue, After they cheat out Artanis, they have 0 cost hit 3 face with shadowstep. Broken.
These cards are nuts
I am totally in the minority, but I am not that impressed by Protoss stuff. It has more hope than the Terran stuff, but even with the amount of mana cheat they are pushing it still feels quite slow to me. At least until rotation.
New hero card, nice
Zeddy, you need to play Yugioh. It will make manacheating in hearthstone look like a nice even fair manacurve
For me it's the hero power that's crazy)
mini-set pls
2:44 mage having only 2 minions :/
My life for Aiur!
this is going to be a clown fiesta
wild brann artanis
*puke* WE KNOW YOU FAVOR THE PROTOSS CLASSES DEVS COME ON NOW!
Is the mana cheat part of the Battlecry ? In other word : can it be Brann'd ?
And your next Artanis cost 2 less...
Protosstone inc.
My life for Aiur!!
I just wish they would fix their mobile app so it doesn’t keep crashing every time I buy a pack from the store! WTF is taking them so long to support older devices?!
