Also, if darkness card was like BLACKNESS with glowing eyes in the middle and not this violet bullshit. Additionally, imagine all the candles visible on the dormant card art, hiding the silhouette behing their glow. As the opponent draws candles, they're being blown one by one, revealing the actual card art.
I mean, that's a lot of effort to put into one barely decent card, they're hardly gonna spend more time on it than on every other card in the history of Hearthstone, especially since people would start demanding more of it, and production costs and time would increase dramatically.
I was playing a dungeon run, with double battlecry. Tortollan forager gave me the darkness which shuffled 6 candles in the boss' deck. When he was summoned he tried to brawl him out and the darkness came through. :D
im waiting for a turn 2 activated darkness game Turn 1 : Innervate, Innervate, Coin, Darkness (can also be counterfeit coin) opponent draws all 3 candles on his turn Turn 2 : 20/20 hit face Turn 3 : Enemy Concedes
andrejoss475 ive done it haha. Not the same way tho. Was warlock played darkness on turn 4. He had bad luck and got all three candles on his turn. On turn six i had my 20/20
Okay. Lets talk chances. The chance of you going second for the coin: 50% The chance of you getting Darkness, Plus both Innervates by your first turn: 1.5708% (Approx) The chance of your opponent drawing three candles in a row on turn two: 0.0279% The Total chance of this all happening: 0.0002191266% Lets say you can Find and play and finish one game every five minutes. It should only take you 2281785 Minutes 38029 Hours 1584 Days 226 Weeks OR 18.863 Months (All times except this rounded down) Good luck!
Angry Wombat23 Well let's compare them.Flamewreathed Faceless(commonly known as 4 mana 7/7) is an old golds common shaman card.This means that: a)after April it will only be available in the wild mode. b)You can only play it as a Shaman ,except you can somehow steal it (if you are a priest or a rogue) or just summon it somehow as a random 4 mana minion in which case you don't have to take the overload drawback.Though,it's a really good card in every kind of shaman,especially if you have cards with the overload synergy in your deck.The only bad thing with it is that your opponent can easily copy it with Faceless Manipulator and he can also immediately remove it with cards like Shadow Word:Death,Assasinate, Equality+Concecration,a spell/battlecry effect/deathtattle effect that deals damage+Execute,Polymorph,Hex,Naturalize etc.Though, it doesn't have any requirement to be able to attack. c)You can have more than on copies of it in your deck(2 in constructed/tavern brawls and even more in arena). Darkness(4 mana 20/20) is a kobolds and katacombs neutral legendary card.This means that: a)This is a new card which is going to be available even after 2018 rotation until April 2019. b)You may use it at any class you want and so you can create many decks containing this card(the most popular are warlock and mage).It can a really good or a really bad card in different situations.On the one hand,it stops all these Raza+Kazakus decks (in both standard and wild) and Reno (in wild) by shuffling three copies of the same card in your opponent's deck and,also,it's amazing against decks with many card draws as if your opponent draws the three candles the frightening 20/20 awakens.Also,it can't be removed,transformed or silenced until it awakens(it has something like a mega stealth which doesn't allow your opponent's targeted/non targeted effects work on it) and it has a great synergy with Rin-Azari warlock as you can destroy your opponent's deck and then play a 4 mana 20/20 with 100% chance to awaken on their next turn.On the other hand,it's bad if you or your opponent are playing decks like mill druid/mill rogue where it is very possible that your opponent burns the candle and this never awakens and it is bad with doomsayer because if your opponent draws the third candle with a friendly doomsayer on board you destroy your win condition.The thing with The Darkness is that it always starts dormant which means summoning it is a really bad thing,but your opponent can't copy the 20/20 and kill you.As a battlecry minion it has synergy with Brann Bronzebeard in wild so that you can awaken more than one Darknesses and that makes it a could card for the Brann-Shadowcaster rogue. c)You can only have one Darkness in your deck(expect Arena and the legendary Tavern Brawl). Conclusion:They are two completely different cards that fit in completely different decks.
This deck is the most "evil" themed deck i have seen XD: Demons, Satanist Gangsters/Cultists, Possessed mindless Minions, Living ebodyments of Darknes and Lovecraftian Oldgods.
Hell, you could be a vegetable and still "watch" Rick and Morty. I would also like to remind everybody that Rick and Morty is only really a beginner's course philosophy (a very entertaining one, but still just a beginning.)
Asianguyoftoday but I came to say hello to darkness, my old friend. I've come to talk to him again. I can't do that if the candles get erased from existence
well. i'd imagine the idea is to play them in the other order. where you destroy their deck, and then shuffle 3 candles into their non-existent deck that they draw immediately. not that it's a very reliable plan
i feel like a deck with The Darkness, cold light seers, that card that turns minions in your hand into a selected minion on the field, and something to bounce the cold lights back and forth, and a lot of draw and stall. the goal, get a darkness on the field, replace non-coldlights with darkness, and then summon several to put a lot of candles into the enemy's deck, then coldlight spam to for him to draw candles quickly. i don't know how well it would work.
Disguised toast: Makes a low energy Fairly Odd Parents reference All of youtube: YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
This card is way more catered towards Shaman imo Murmuring elemental allows 6 candles to be shuffled into the deck, improving odds greatly, especially in late game, and allows for the use of a sapphire spellstone to get up to 4 awakened darknesses (1st one awakened with 3 candles, play spellstone, get 3 dormant ones, they awaken with the other 3 candles) Coldlight Oracle also synergizes well with murloc shaman and gives your opponent more chance to draw candles Or totem shaman can feed off of the murmuring elementals and use them on windshear stormcaller for double al'akir summons
IceArro watch out when using the oracle, since 1 candle used before copy might screw it up. Also the sooner the darkness is awakened, (assuming it is after turn 5 or so), the more chances that the opponent has not used his removals yet. That being said, it might be situational but it still is a pretty good idea. I was thinking about the shaman too but didn't think about the copies
I learned the hard way with a rogue darkness deck that candles can be destroyed if their hands are full when I was spamming Oracle, next time I won't try to blow my load too fast
Ben Brode: Guys there is clearly a lot of disagreement when it comes to Flamewreathed Faceless. Distant Chattering: Yeah. Yes I agree. You're right! Ben Brode: Here's the solution, we add a 4 Mana 20/20 that is a neutral card. Distant Chattering: What? You ok Ben? Rip Blizzard 2018
What?! 4 Mana 7/7 is evolving!! *Cue Evolving Music* Ta-Daah! Your 4 Mana 7/7 evolved into a 4 Mana 20/20! Summary: 4 Mana 20/20 Ability : Slow Start *Me Inside* : God Fucking Damn it!
I actually did something hilariously overkill to an opponent recently with that. Marin=Goblet=X5 "The Darkness" with me managing get four them on board. My opponent was NOT happy!
Hey Toast, idk where to post stuff like this, so I'm doing it here. I just used Elixir of Purity (divine shield) on my 1/5 taunt/divine shield minion and my opponent silenced it with ironbeak owl and the minion kept the divine shield. Do you think this is a bug, or a special interaction with how the spell works?
Imagine blasting their deck and then shuffling the darkness in. Not that I ever managed to blast a deck, and I imagine my opponent would conceed if I did.
16:42 Blackcrystal kills the voidlord, hellfire destroys the 1/3s, even though it kills your own 3/3 the hellfire does 3 damage toface anway. The 4/4 (now 4/1) hits face, and hero power and darkness ends the game. You had lethal anyway.
16:30 It was still lethal, even if he didn't cube the guy Blast crystal the voidlord into helfire(3) into hero power(3), 4/1 and 20/17 to the face = 30
empower ur demons so they become,4/4 and 5/5 trade ur 5/5 with voidlord use hell fire to destory all the 1/3 and it will deal 3 damage to the face so it will become 27 darkness20+4 demon+heropower TOTAL=27 it's lethal
Simon Albou nah the way it works is the potion takes 4 mana, the mana crystal that is lost is an empty mana crystal, so you still have 6 'full' mana crystals left.
Flamewreath Faceless(4 mana 7/7) *Upgrade* The Storm Guardian(5 mana 10/10) *Fuck go back* The Darkness(4 mana 20/20) *I SAID GO BACK* The Ancient One(9 mana 30/30) *JESUS WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!*
The darkness is supposed to go dormant when summoned so you can't cheese it out, and because it awakening doesn't give it any enchantments for faceless to copy it just summons normally and goes dark. It also only puts candles in the opponents deck through battlecry, so if it gets summoned by any means other than play it is useless if you don't shuffle candles into the opponents deck with another one.
mike the card says it stays dormant untill youre opponent draws three candles. The battlecry is the shuffle thing. The dormant thing is like spellpower, but you can't do stuff about it cause dormant means its immune against anything. Thats my interpretation, but i know that the transition from a 20/20 on the card directly to a dormant minion reminds of a battlecry even if it is a permanent effect.
That Faceless interaction is unfair though.....why would it not become an exact copy of the minion in its current state? It also copies undefined Deathrattles like for example Carnivorous Cubes....
That’s... not how that should work. Faceless copies a minion in its current form. Any buffs or damage copy over as well. Faceless should copy darkness as active.
the issue is that darkness' awakening isn't an "effect" in the normal hearthstone sense. there is no condition to copy with the way the card functions(they likely made it this way to reduce instances of "cheating" this overstated card out, and getting it off of random effects, hard to say for certain). regardless, there is nothing to copy in terms of awakening, so copy effects give you a butt-standard darkness, starting dormant, with no candle-shuffle battlecry.
personally i feel the card's text should be adjusted to make the behavior clear, rather than changing that behavior. i don't even own the card, but i feel it is better this way than it would be changed, and i see no necessary reason to change it's coding if "consistency" is the only issue
Why don't Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound's text written as "At the end of your turn, Recruit a minion" and Dragonhatcher's text written as "At the end of your turn, Recruit a dragon"?
Rage Unbound was added about 6 expansions ago(pretty long time for this game), during "whispers of the old gods". the term "recruit" is a keyword added during this latest expansion, which is why only "kobolds and catacombs" cards are using that wording. Blizzard could go back and adjust the text on Y'Shaarj, but they seem to not find it important enough, so they don't
TheHorseTermite it contributes to both. Doesn't matter how much darknesses, as long as a candle is drawn, it counts for any darkness. (I had this interaction when i played dungeon run and had 2 darknesses) In that case, since there are 6 candles, your odds of awakening the darkness is increased
both. if you were to simulacrum a darkness in hand, play them both, (shuffling 6 candles into your enemy's deck): both darkness would awaken simultaneously, on the drawing of the third candle. the remaining three would then be irrelevant, if you were curious about that as well
*5 M A N A 0/0*
Xavier Reichel That doesn't even die and free space like 0 HP minion would! So it's more like 0/infinity: "Can't be interacted with"
That is OP
Blizzard pls nerf!
Its interactibel his oponent just needed to find a way to put 3 candles in toast deck
@@pedronabais1456 Which is literally impossible to do without playing the Darkness, which he did not have, therefore, it was not "interactibel".
Would be awesome if it actually became dark when The Darkness activates, and then normal again when it dies.
Also, if darkness card was like BLACKNESS with glowing eyes in the middle and not this violet bullshit.
Additionally, imagine all the candles visible on the dormant card art, hiding the silhouette behing their glow. As the opponent draws candles, they're being blown one by one, revealing the actual card art.
Small indie company!!!Small brains!
I mean, that's a lot of effort to put into one barely decent card, they're hardly gonna spend more time on it than on every other card in the history of Hearthstone, especially since people would start demanding more of it, and production costs and time would increase dramatically.
I was actually expecting the candles to be in the art, blocking the darkness while dormant
How would that work? Shuffle 3 more candles into the opponents deck? Tho really cool if discard didn't count also xD
4:27 Darkness starts
15:52 Darkness actually starts
The happiness when faceless manipulator is over 9000
I've never seen that darkness animation before. I don't think I ever will again.
Especially his attack line

Why play darkness in a rin deck? If you destroy his deck while the candles are in it, you can't say hello to darkness
But you can say goodbye to the deck ;)
Asianguyoftoday but I came to say hello to darkness, my old friend. I've come to talk to him again. I can't do that if the candles get erased from existence
well. i'd imagine the idea is to play them in the other order. where you destroy their deck, and then shuffle 3 candles into their non-existent deck that they draw immediately. not that it's a very reliable plan
NerdOracle honestly the card itself is not really good
which?
darkness? i'd be inclined to agree.
rin? i'd be inclined to disagree
i feel like a deck with The Darkness, cold light seers, that card that turns minions in your hand into a selected minion on the field, and something to bounce the cold lights back and forth, and a lot of draw and stall.
the goal, get a darkness on the field, replace non-coldlights with darkness, and then summon several to put a lot of candles into the enemy's deck, then coldlight spam to for him to draw candles quickly.
i don't know how well it would work.
The tales told are true, Toast uses his ocular organs to observe Richard and Mortimer, the man is ascended.

This card is way more catered towards Shaman imo
Murmuring elemental allows 6 candles to be shuffled into the deck, improving odds greatly, especially in late game, and allows for the use of a sapphire spellstone to get up to 4 awakened darknesses (1st one awakened with 3 candles, play spellstone, get 3 dormant ones, they awaken with the other 3 candles)
Coldlight Oracle also synergizes well with murloc shaman and gives your opponent more chance to draw candles
Or totem shaman can feed off of the murmuring elementals and use them on windshear stormcaller for double al'akir summons
IceArro watch out when using the oracle, since 1 candle used before copy might screw it up.
Also the sooner the darkness is awakened, (assuming it is after turn 5 or so), the more chances that the opponent has not used his removals yet.
That being said, it might be situational but it still is a pretty good idea. I was thinking about the shaman too but didn't think about the copies

best intro ever.
Hey Toast, idk where to post stuff like this, so I'm doing it here. I just used Elixir of Purity (divine shield) on my 1/5 taunt/divine shield minion and my opponent silenced it with ironbeak owl and the minion kept the divine shield. Do you think this is a bug, or a special interaction with how the spell works?
Definitely a bug, I think I've seen it shown in a recent episode of Hearthstone Mythbuster.
Nick Baker g
Reddit is a good place to ask those types of questions
That moment when even the URL is shocked.
What about this: a dead man’s hand deck with bran and the darkness, trying to draw them candles
Thanks Toast for not playing the Cancer Cubelock.
Imagine blasting their deck and then shuffling the darkness in. Not that I ever managed to blast a deck, and I imagine my opponent would conceed if I did.
5 mana remove 1 space from your own side. GENIOUS
when toast doesn't know you can't copy the darkness
If you play more than one Darkness, Does it only take 3 candles to activate all of them?
Loved the intro
That interaction is so stupid.
Starts dormant man, starts dormant.
Same happens if you copy it with the Shaman Spellstone. Shit's stupid as fuck, should be fixed imo.
Really? You think the card needs to be made -weaker-?
So hypothetically: If you Evolve 3 mana into Darkness. You lose minion without ability to evolve it into usefull 5 mana minion? That IS stupid.
Welp, the text is consistent. It reads "Starts dormant. Battlecry: shuffle 3 candles" and not "Battlecry: Starts dormant and shuffle 3 candles"
I love watching these Demolock Control Matches. :D
That 5 mana 0/0 with: *The maximum amount of minions you can have in the board lessens by 1*
You know what I believe in? A thing called love.
20 20 was scary even back then,Darkness?oh no bucko
I am trying to make The Darkness work with mill rogue. I mean, there's Fel'Dorei Strider and all that murloc drawing sexiness...
Who is this... Darkness annyway?
16:42
Blackcrystal kills the voidlord, hellfire destroys the 1/3s, even though it kills your own 3/3 the hellfire does 3 damage toface anway. The 4/4 (now 4/1) hits face, and hero power and darkness ends the game.
You had lethal anyway.
16:30
It was still lethal, even if he didn't cube the guy
Blast crystal the voidlord into helfire(3) into hero power(3), 4/1 and 20/17 to the face = 30
But he would have 2 voidlords, so no it wouldn't be leathal, 3 off. Okay, if he cubed the other voidlord of course.
Doesn't blastcrystal remove mana from the turn it's used? If so, hero power would've been unusable this turn
Simon Albou no it doesn't.
empower ur demons so they become,4/4 and 5/5
trade ur 5/5 with voidlord
use hell fire to destory all the 1/3
and it will deal 3 damage to the face so it will become 27
darkness20+4 demon+heropower
TOTAL=27
it's lethal
Simon Albou nah the way it works is the potion takes 4 mana, the mana crystal that is lost is an empty mana crystal, so you still have 6 'full' mana crystals left.

Is that darkness interaction supposed to do that?
The darkness is supposed to go dormant when summoned so you can't cheese it out, and because it awakening doesn't give it any enchantments for faceless to copy it just summons normally and goes dark. It also only puts candles in the opponents deck through battlecry, so if it gets summoned by any means other than play it is useless if you don't shuffle candles into the opponents deck with another one.
mike the card says it stays dormant untill youre opponent draws three candles. The battlecry is the shuffle thing. The dormant thing is like spellpower, but you can't do stuff about it cause dormant means its immune against anything.
Thats my interpretation, but i know that the transition from a 20/20 on the card directly to a dormant minion reminds of a battlecry even if it is a permanent effect.
I️ love the card even more now! Thanks
In my opinion, no. Faceless is supposed to copy the current state of the minion, not its default-after-summon state.
Also the recruit mechanic would be bonked if it didn't
If u play the faceless manipulator on your own 4 mana 20/20, can the new copy be activated by the 3 candles shuffled in the opponent's deck?
Sherlock Lau You can't target a dormant minion, so you can't copy before you draw all the candles
i see, thank you :)
if you use Brann or the new elemental to shuffle 6 candles into the opponent's deck. I guess it work then.
lol brilliant
It's doesn't work even if u faceless the 2020. I tried it and u just get a copy of the original
intro idea was gold
Darkness also messes up the no duplicates in your deck OP af
not particularly op, it's a reasonable counter that may give you a needed push in your favor against singleton decks
good job with intro :D U make my day
wanna know two words?
Stitched. Traveler.
That Faceless interaction is unfair though.....why would it not become an exact copy of the minion in its current state? It also copies undefined Deathrattles like for example Carnivorous Cubes....
wtf that rope at 8:20 . that shit disappears so fast
Missing this

Lil Toast
Moment when u watch vid and don’t rly understand what is going on but watch it cuz of Toast
Haha Toast, I remember you telling me how much you weren't convinced the darkness was a worthwhile card at the Syndey Inn-vitational :p
Thats a good reminder that i should not faceless manipulator a darkness, thanks!
10:00
What about Big Shaq?
That’s... not how that should work. Faceless copies a minion in its current form. Any buffs or damage copy over as well. Faceless should copy darkness as active.
the issue is that darkness' awakening isn't an "effect" in the normal hearthstone sense. there is no condition to copy with the way the card functions(they likely made it this way to reduce instances of "cheating" this overstated card out, and getting it off of random effects, hard to say for certain). regardless, there is nothing to copy in terms of awakening, so copy effects give you a butt-standard darkness, starting dormant, with no candle-shuffle battlecry.
personally i feel the card's text should be adjusted to make the behavior clear, rather than changing that behavior.
i don't even own the card, but i feel it is better this way than it would be changed, and i see no necessary reason to change it's coding if "consistency" is the only issue
the darkness is too powerfull for faceless to coppy hahahaha
Just silence it 5Head
Now if only you played dead man’s hand warrior with the darkness for
you guessed it
INFINITE NIGHT
That interaction at the end is so dumb it's impressive.
not necessarily
Why don't Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound's text written as "At the end of your turn, Recruit a minion"
and Dragonhatcher's text written as "At the end of your turn, Recruit a dragon"?
Rage Unbound was added about 6 expansions ago(pretty long time for this game), during "whispers of the old gods". the term "recruit" is a keyword added during this latest expansion, which is why only "kobolds and catacombs" cards are using that wording. Blizzard could go back and adjust the text on Y'Shaarj, but they seem to not find it important enough, so they don't
probably because they forgot to change the text after newest expac
They did change the text of Burnbristle though...
yes, yes they did. your point?
best game ive watched in ages!
Toast, I have a question. If you play Darkness 2 times AND have them both on the board, when a candle is drawn will it contribute to both or just one?
TheHorseTermite it contributes to both.
Doesn't matter how much darknesses, as long as a candle is drawn, it counts for any darkness.
(I had this interaction when i played dungeon run and had 2 darknesses)
In that case, since there are 6 candles, your odds of awakening the darkness is increased
both. if you were to simulacrum a darkness in hand, play them both, (shuffling 6 candles into your enemy's deck): both darkness would awaken simultaneously, on the drawing of the third candle. the remaining three would then be irrelevant, if you were curious about that as well
