      ​@@taylon5200I would probably say impulse draw (exile from top of library, you may play it this turn) is closer to Quickdraw. Miracle cares only about the first card drawn, whereas impulse draw cares about you playing cards the turn you actually drew it. Of course, you lose access to them after (usually anyway), but it's still closer as an overall game effect.

  • @KingOfHarems
    @KingOfHarems 6 місяців тому +43

    The thing to remember about Pandaren Importer is that when rotation happened, it became a meta breaking deck since you could cheese shadow step into always being guaranteed (Since there were 23 rogue spells at rotation, running 20 without shadow step meant it was always guaranteed). Of course, this was more just a Brann enabling dumb stuff and shadow step still being a 5* no matter what happens, but Pandaren Importer was the key piece to make that stupid otk deck.
    Also, funny that Fogsail Freebooter came straight after as that was an interchangeable key piece in that.

    I like this idea of showing cards with an arena draft, the only problem is that it may show cards that didn't share a standard rotation, which makes them impossible to compare if you're only going to compare their performance on standard.

    • @scottrae332

      Yeah I super agree with this. Take the Costumed Singer vs Tar Creeper. While Tar Creeper was better in its time over the 1/1 singer CGB has no idea what the meta was like. It turns it from ranking 3 cards based on what is printed on them into rank these three cards based on how they did in different metas at vastly different points in Hearthstones history.

    pandaren importer was busted for a bit in standard, I believe in rogue? Specifically in 1st expansion post rotation.

  • @TheRasheedWallace
    @TheRasheedWallace 6 місяців тому +4

    The ceiling on Commander Sivara is higher than Flint Firearm. Getting 3 spells that you've already cast is better than draw 3 or even draw 3 spells, because you are getting back spells that are important enough that you've already played them, meaning you are getting 3 really good cards, on average. There are 2 problems with it's use case though: 1 if you draw it too late and cannot meet the requirement of playing 3 cards, or if your hand is already full, it's effectively a dead card for several turns; however, if you are drawing Sivara too late, chances are you've stabilized and its ok if it just sits for a little. 2, and actually more detrimental to the card's value is if you draw it too early. If drawn too early, the spells you are getting back are more likely to be ok early game spells, that you are less likely to want to get an extra copy of, in comparison to the your bigger spells which will either win you the game, or stabilize you. You almost never want Sivara in your opening hand, but sometimes you get an unlucky early draw.
    Flint Firearm is generally good. It's a great filler card, because it's good on it's own merit, but it's also early in the rotation right now, and I can't see it holding it's value after the next expansion is added, and more cards are in the format. It is more likely than not to be powerful if played late, and in some situations can win you matchups which you otherwise would lose, but this is more rare.
    Overall, the ceiling is higher on Sivara, which saw play in several mage decks, not just Naga Mage (also several variations of high level/legend variations of mage decks). And was usually very strong in control matchups, because it gives you three cards that you really want, and allows you to do thing which you otherwise would not be able to do in the mage class. It's marginal, but Sivara is the better card, even though Flint Firearm is generally good (however, it's not as generally good as, for example, Astalor).

    That Deckhand. I played a lot of Caverns Quest Rogue back in the day.
    But how was CGB going to know that the Deckhand is often a 1-mana 5/5 with haste that you can bounce into your hand repeatedly?

      bro its like one of the million circumstances where deckhand was good. every second rogue deck played it because it could get buffed with coldblood/7-mana horse/oil from gvg/keleseth/southsea captain and many others. not even talking about him pulling out patches from your deck

    Triplewick Trickster is a really nice card for the upper curve of elemental mage. It really allows you to push disgusting amounts of damage when combined with tainted remnant and fireballs

    I'd argue that Bronze Gatekeeper is the better card. I joined during Descent of Dragons and I did see Elemental Allies occasionally. That said, one thing that Rarran forgot to mention is that while Bronze Gatekeeper did see a decent play in Mech decks of the time, it's also CURRENTLY in Standard cause it''s that good. Granted it got a buff when it entered the core set, but I remember getting my shit busted in by a Mech Rogue and recently when Mech Mage saw a resurgence (before rotation), I got flattened by it when Mecha Shark was good. I'll throw in Wild for extra credit, cause while it's not in general rotation because there are a lot of good mechs in wild. It does occasionally see play for the stats buff for the 2 mana 1/3 gain +1/+1 when you summon a Mech.

    To comment on life sentence, it was never ran in the main deck, but it was generally one of the best discover options for mage to remove dangerous deathrattles and big minions, only overshadowed by its sister card of the set in objection.
    To add onto bronze gatekeeper, it was 3 mana 1/5 originally, which made it a tough add for mech hunters at the time as 1 attack was not enough for a taunt to matter.
    I dont think CGB got the understanding that whelp wrangler saying "get a 1/2 whelp with taunt" is not adding it to board, but instead adding it to hand.

    28:29 Mech Hunter main back in rise of shadows. Rarran is right, Bronze Gatekeeper was a very meh option in the deck, mostly because it was a 1/5 at the time
