    EMP Operative definitely should've been "Silence and Destroy a Mech". Some mechs had deathrattles, so adding the silence effect would make the EMP Operative be a catch-all remove-a-mech solution, but even then, it wouldn’t have been very good.

    On your point about Crimson Expanse and its ties to Demon Hunter, I wish that Dormant was more strongly defined in its class identity. It just makes so much sense from a flavour perspective for a class with the literal mechanic of Outcast to have their minions being uninteractable for some time after they are summoned, especially given how Illidan was imprisoned (thus Dormant) for 10000 years.

    • @GKplus8
      @GKplus8 3 місяці тому +2

      Yeah, Dormant has always been in a wierd spot in HS, because they know it's a good enough keyword to not leave abandoned like other set exclusive keywords, but it's flavor is so narrow that most of the time, only DH & Warlock feel thematic for it.

  • @amberlee4536
    @amberlee4536 3 місяці тому +8

    If EMP Operative had been 2 mana, gain +1/+1, like the entire Golakka cycle, it absolutely would have seen a ton of play in Wild over the years. There's been a LOT of metas where mechs need to die, like before Mechwarper got nerfed and, uh, right now, with Unkilliax ruining lives. In fact, if it read "silence and destroy a Mech" it would probably be playable right now at 5 mana just to counter Unkilliax (a version of Zilliax that was recently released that is incredibly sticky and hard to remove without healing your opponent for 16 or more.

    Grimtotem Bounty Hunter - battlecry: destroy an enemy legendary minion

    Grimtotem Buzzkill - battlecry: discard a weapon to draw 3 cards
    Ice Cream Peddler - battlecry: if you control a frozen minion, gain 8 armor
    Bayfin Bodybuilder - after a minion is summoned for your opponent on your turn, silence and destroy it
    Fight Promoter - battlecry: if you control a minion with 6 or more health, draw 2 cards
    Selfless Sidekick - battlecry: equip a random weapon from your deck
    Wicked Skeleton - battlecry: gain +1/+1 for each minion that died this turn

    @Jack_Rakan 3 місяці тому +25

    I think half the time you forgot what the word 'specific' means. Both Crimson Expanse and Argent Watchman are just generically bad cards, but nothing is really 'specific' about them. Both damaged minions and hero powers are just things that happen organically in almost every match. A good fit for the list would have been Skulking Gheist, who was made specifically to target Jade Druids. Or either of the Hemet Nesingwary's (IIRC one kills a beast, and the other destroys all cards in your deck that cost 3 or less).

    Being dormant for one turn decreases the combo potential of crimson expanse in one way but in another way it makes the combo potential really strong since it guarantees the minion will be on board at the start of your next turn, allowing for >10 mana combinations before turn 10.

    Hey Jordan, loved the video! Also your question about the dormant for 1 turn thing being a demon hunter thing, here’s my take on it (although I agree it’s weird)
    Demon hunter came out in Ashes of Outland, the same set as most of the dormant for 2 turns cards (you mentioned antaen and magtheridon). But also lore wise, demon hunters were magically imprisoned (they were essentially dormant) and they have an ability in wow that imprisons enemies like they were (making them dormant)
    Idk that’s just my thought on it. Thanks for highlighting a bunch of cards i definitely forgot about

    Dormant is kinda a demon hunter thing, think of Illidan lore and being “dormant” (imprisoned) for 10K years, also dormant was introduced with Ashes alongside DH, and actually a 3rd thing DH has been mentioned along side crystals multiple times, soul shards in Scholomance, soul fragments from the DH weapon in March, I’m sure there more like you could say a crystal/gem could be a type of relic. Overall I think flavor wise it fits really well,

    Emp operative was at least a card that has a clear use and was put into the set with a reason in mind. "Oh if these mechs cause a problem then we have some safety valve in place for it"
    Argent Watchman could have been a good card but it suffered from GvG/early Hearthstone problems of just being too weak. If it was a 5/5 for 2 with that stat line it might have been okay to put generically into a deck but might have made Watcher/Handlock Warlock too strong in that era.

    Furnacefire should have said:
    Eat all weapons in your hand and gain their stats. For each weapon consumed, draw a card.
    Then atleast, it wouldn't dismantle your handsize.

    I think there could be a bit more optimism, but honestly I would love to see more of this,
    Lots of neat... but ultimately useless cards in HS and some of them need to be shown off as an option for a off-meta deck

    0:26 meme counterpoint: Mark once used it to destroy his own minion. Which one? forgor. When? i feel like a week or so after it came out.
    ->later into the video, most gameplay about these cards is either so old yt was decent with the amount of ads or is a convoluted Mark combo

    What about the hunter spell. For 3 mana, deal 3 damages, next spell has +2 spell damage. Very odd in hunter.

    I'm convinced Argent Watchman was suppose to be 1 mana then they thought it would be too op so put it at 2 to kill it cause it being the same cost as the hero power makes 0 sense

  • @andredepadua8799
    @andredepadua8799 3 місяці тому +1

    Argent Watchmen should be a 2 mana 3/6 or even 4/6, or should be buffed to 1 mana 3/4 in Caverns of Time. Better miracle salesman. Go to the moon, 0 mana 2/3 for even decks (with charge)

  • @Lovyxia
    @Lovyxia 3 місяці тому

    Furnacefire Collossus feels like a card that was designed for decks that run too many weapons that clog their hand up with them or such, but it has many problems:
    - The high cost and big stats make it too weak to removal while making the weapon stats not as relevant as they would be on a smaller, cheaper minion.
    - You discard ALL weapons FROM HAND. If you run lots of weapons but have one you care about equipping in hand, playing it takes precedence over this clunky minion and any weapon you might be holding is wasted.
    These issues are problems a card Shadestone Skulker doesn't have, which is also a sort of "weapon declogger" in a different way. I wish these design ideas were touched on more in Rogue, as it is a weapon class with a Hero Power you can't use when you're building around weapons and that's always been annoying me.

    My favorite obscure, unusable card is Proving Grounds, personally.
    what is the use case for this card? like what were they intending it to do, I guess summon two deathrattles to maybe die?
    I used it in a dumb deck where I summoned two Troll Centurions to deal 16 to the opponent's face because that's the only thing I could think of that's specifically enabled by it. but what were they cooking lol

  • @ryanmoore8346
    @ryanmoore8346 3 місяці тому +1

    To defend the inspire card, offensively, it's hot garbage. Defensively, more interesting. Opponent plays Bloodfen Raptor, I play Argent Watchman, and now there's a mindgame; if I have nothing better to do, I can clear the 3/2, leave myself with an atrocious 2/1, but still, a 2/1. So, it might be better for my opponent to overpay to remove the bad minion, even if I'm not intending on Hero Powering.
