Not a classic card but... Brightwing.. A Legendary minion. Vs Paparazzi. A common card. Same cost. (3 mana) Brightwing is 3/2. Paparazzi is 3/4 Brightwing - battlecry Add a random legendary minion to your hand. Paparazzi - battlecry Discover a Legendary minion. Straight up better than a legendary minion. Actually insane.
1) Paparazzi isn't a GDB card 2) Brightwing giving "Random" means it can give cards from other classes, while Paparazzi is limited to the discover pool (Your class + Neutrals) 3) Brightwing is a dragon. It used to get run in Dragon decks simply because of that fact (While Paparazzi has just been a meme card for Renathal greed decks)
@@tarille1043true on all points, but I would still argue that Paparazzi is the better card due to discover and stats being ever so slightly more impactful.
@@tarille1043 I'm pretty sure paparazzi was genuinely run in the old super greedy triple blood death knight back in festival just to get more copies of the 3 damage every turn guy
@cuihenggang you could when death knight originally launched. they changed it when people kept discovering that and frostwyrms fury a bunch, cause its card pool was so small back then
I think power creep is okayish to a point where the game does not lose fun or become so game warping within 1 turn. Its not necessarily a bad thing when the games goes live a bit faster. However, there are a couple of cards which i think ruin so many games or feel horrible to play against, like the zilliax, reno (however i think they overkilled him), and a bunch of other cards.
@@ksir3058 What do you mean slow the game? The late is is pure insanity, you are just suffering after you go past turn 7. Like every class summon 7 minions each turn, getting 10+ armor, have infinity demons decks, blow your 12 cards and 6 minions, paladin having 2 librams that give +6/6 for 0 . It is better than Jaraxus hero power! You can heropower and give 1/1 paladin +6/6 and it would be better then Jaraxus demon! The game is straight up not fair and absolutely broken past turn 7.
But like if the overall power level of the cards is higher then none of the cards are technically any more absurd then they used to be in actually power level? Right?
4:46 this card is also power creep.of incarceration. It was a 3 mana spell for druid in the maw and disorder mini set that made a minion go dormant for 3 turns
@2:01 I'll note Rotten Applebaum for this one. 5 Mana 4/5 Taunt Battlecry: Restore 5 Health to your Hero. No type, no synergy. Saw play in tons of decks. Currently buffed to 4 Mana, doesn't see play.
Umm 1) Rotten Applebaum is Deathrattle: Restore 6 health to your hero not a Battlecry. 2) It wasn't buffed to 4 mana. It was and still is 5 mana. Its buff was to increase the healing from 4 to 6. 3) It never saw much play. It was only ever really run in some N'zoth decks. 4) It received the Undead type when MotLK dropped. 5) Of course it doesn't see play. It's not in Standard lmao.
Spacerock Collector vs Foxy Fraud. Both are "Free" combo activators. However Collector isn't "This turn" so you can bank the discount for later. Urzul Rager vs basically every other Rager (Besides Wax Rager). 5/1 Lifesteal AND can get quasi-rush with the Spellburst. The Ceaseless Expanse vs Deathwing and also Deathwing, the Destroyer. Not only is it more stats but it also doesn't nuke your hand AND it can be played for less than 10 mana. Anchorite vs Lightsteed. Anchorite is cheaper so it's easier to combo with heals, it provides more health since it scales with healing instead of being a flat +2. The only advantage Lightsteed has is that its effect works without overhealing. Shield of Askara vs Sunwalker. 4/8 Taunt Divine Shield Lifesteal (Also a Draenei) vs 4/5 Taunt Divine Shield both are 6 mana
Thats why i want them to buff old cards.imagine azure drake signature card with better stats. Buff yeti buff azure. Buff bloodmage thalnos buff patches to 2.2 stats . I mean lots of old legendary cards are weak
Honestly they should have just done the same as wow and kept classic while slowly introducing new sets. Its becoming harder day by day to enjoy the game
Soul-bound is not better than shredder while it dose stack with attack buffs it doesn’t work with hand buff dk and the buffs it gets don’t apply to the starship so your literally spending mana on a card just to get a random unbuffed 10 drop when dk and every other class has better stuff to do it’s only good tempo early game like shredder but id still use shredder over it
Shredder is better tempo. Spire is better late game. Spire is one of the few Starship pieces worth running because when you get your big chonky Starship launched, summoning a random 10 drop can generate Wakener of Souls which will be able to resummon your big chonky Starship. Shredder was just powercreep on Yeti. People went from turn 4 yeti into turn 4 Shredder. No-one cares about a turn 3 Spire (Which is in of itself basically around the same power as Hapless Handler or Devouring Ectoplasm). Spire is more comparable to Harvest Golem than Shredder.

@@menialbee you can’t discover triple rune cards
@cuihenggang you could when death knight originally launched. they changed it when people kept discovering that and frostwyrms fury a bunch, cause its card pool was so small back then
Azure Drake was 4/4 back in the day iirc
Let's not pretend like classic balance is a good metric. That era was all over the place.

I feel like azure drake should be buffed to 4 mana
Would go against trying to slow the game down, oracle needs to get nerfed

Even if it was a 4 mana 5/5 it probably still is too slow
Tbh extraterrestrial egg is not played rn because there aren't enough ways to proc it and not enough payoff options for a deathrattle egg deck.
But like if the overall power level of the cards is higher then none of the cards are technically any more absurd then they used to be in actually power level? Right?
Lots of good nerfs in the last patch, but they seriously dropped the ball by leaving Ethereal Oracle untouched.

And this power creep ruined new HS I miss old normal cards
At least Boulderfist Ogre has not been powercrept 😊
It already has good stats for the cost
Didnt they release the spore guy this expansion? What was its name, Moldara?
@@Run2Seeun theres also armored goon which is also a 6/7 with a benefit

Only thing I can say about splitting spacerock is it can board lock you rather easily if anyone tries to play into that.
Splitting Spacerock even sees play in Dungar Druid
Zeddy you're my shiny star
Scarlet Crusader was powercrept by darkmoon Zeppelin too.
1:55 what do you mean by Thickhide Kodo is not a starship piece? Looks like one to me.
Dear Zeddy, the card is pronounced "E-Thee-Re-Al", not "E-Thee-Ral"
Splitting Spacerock 8 mana 8/8 Elemental Deathrattle: Summon two Splitting Fasteroot
Yup pretty much

Buff Patches? A card that continues to see play in literally every Pirate deck in Wild which are often T1 archetypes?
@tarille1043 deserves at least 1 health
@tarille1043 give me pirate warrior t1 deck for wild
@@Bad888MaxPirate shadow priest and pirate DH are already strong enough in wild. Stop with the memes.
soulbound spire reminds me of spiteful summoner weirdly enough!
You missed the draw 2 draenei in arcane intellect category
Honestly they should have just done the same as wow and kept classic while slowly introducing new sets. Its becoming harder day by day to enjoy the game
Why would they nerf the only good GDB card?
Dh 3 mana draw 2 cards, meanwhile rogue: Secret passage 2 mana draw 4 (was 1 mana draw 5) and Gear shift 1 mana draw 3 😂

Oracle is just mini Gadgetzan Ox.
11:40 well, it is linear growth, not exponencial, but I’ll allow it xD
How is that funny
I've played nebula on turn 3 with coin
Make Azure Drake again
Azure drake PepeHands
Thank you, happy 5hanksg8v8ng 😷
man, the flavor text on these cards is so bad.
Eth-ee-ree-al
Say it with me Zeddy
Eth-ee-ree-al
azure drake is dragon type soo its maybe better
Did you ask Regis before you took his idea??
Regis hasn't uploaded one of these videos in a loooooong time. Think other people are allowed to cover this lol
Technically DisguisedToast did it first, but that doesn't mean no one else can
