Any probability wizzes around?

Let's say there are 5 cards left in my opponent's deck (or hand) that will kill me next turn. What are the chances that he has at least one of those cards in his hand if he has 4 cards in his hand and 12 cards left in his deck?

I think the simplest is to to think of the opposite method. If he has 16 cards total (12 in deck and 4 in hand), and draws 4 in a row with 5 cards that can kill you, the odds of drawings no kill cards is (11/16)×(10/15)×(9/14)×(8/13) = 18.1%.

Therefore, he has a 81.9% of having at least one card that will kill you on the next turn.

Warsong Commander is bugged, doesn't give charge to plenty of things that it should.


Definitely sounds like a bug. The card text is explicit about it being when a minion is summoned, NOT when a minion card is played. So any minion brought onto the board from anywhere, including battlecries, should qualify.

This is one way to do it by pure numbers I think; but realistically thinking that way is problematic because its based entirely on the numbers from the draw, not taking into account the fact that the cards in the opponent's hand are ones he or she may have deliberately held back. So that may well make it even more likely that there's lethal in hand (Mages holding back Pyroblast, Warriors holding back Grommash and Cruel Taskmaster, etc). I'm not sure you can actually calculate for that though.

On a more facetious note: it doesn't matter what the actual probability is. It'll feel like its 100% of the time.

What happens when you use a Reversing Switch on a monster with 0 Attack?
You should not have to pay to watch the GSL, Proleague, or OSL at a reasonable time. That is not "fine" and it's BS to say otherwise. My sig since 2011. http://www.youtube.com/user/dabom88

It converts to zero HP, then dies.

Conversely, a wounded, then swapped, then silenced minion will revert to its (full) base stats upon silence, as opposed to just "undoing" the swap. I.E. a 4/3 Wounded Blademaster could be swapped into a 3/4, then silenced to make a 4/7.

Questions:
1) If you have 2 Fel Cannons they can both shoot the same minion, even if it dies to the first attack. Is this intended?
2) If you use Blingtron as a Druid, Weapons give + attack, so can you use Savagery with this?

1. I would think this is a bug. They have an order of proc after all, and shouldn't be able to target dead minions.

2. Yes you can

trust me. it happened.

but I think I solved the mistery. He got flame leviathan and I think that it is the only minion that you can see in that moment.
He got it at turn 3 and played it at turn 4.

Even then it should not happen, though, since Flame Leviathan's effect only happens when you actually draw it from your deck.

I think that's his point. It shouldn't but you do (presumably because of what happens when you draw it from deck); so its bugged.

I'm just surprised nobody has noticed this before, is all. Normally bugs like that are all over reddit within a day or so, so I'd really like to see a screenshot of this.

I think it's not a bug. it's correct this way. everytime you "draw" (from the deck or not) flame leviathian your opp should see it.

Why would that be correct? It only makes sense if you draw it from your deck, it does not make sense if you draw it in any other way. Whether you see the card or not should reflect that.
