i mean, it'll be really strong when it goes off... i just don't think it'll last terribly long in very many decks because of the conditionality of it. | ||

Not just silence though. As someone has already pointed out, it is possible to mind control the other player's 2nd legendary and summon Thaddius for themselves. I can see the potential for this to backfire lol. | ||

I may also be biased because midrange is my most competent playstyle. Anyway, I'm extremely excited. These cards look amazing - few if any have an equivalent effect in the base set. I'm sure new broken strategies will emerge out of this when the dust settles, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it eh? | ||

How many heroes exactly can mind control anyway? >_> | ||

"It can be mind controlled" is like the worst reason for why a card would be bad, and you can even silence the card if it does get mind controlled. It's like saying Tirion Fordring is a bad card because it can be mind controlled. I never said it was bad, just that if you are using both of them then there are 2 targets for mind control (the 2nd legendary and Thaddius himself) which makes it more vulnerable. They're still scary as heck obviously but I'm not completely convinced they're OP for many reasons (not just mind control). I expect to see everyone running them for a while though, we'll see how it goes. | ||

if i had to pick, shaman would take nr1. for the next few months. I can imagine a deck using ancient watchers, owls, earthshocks, hexxes, the new reincarnate, and some of the new cards to be quite effective | ||

They're the only 11 stat 5 drops in the game with no negative effects and an enormous potential one. Just drawing a silence is useful for a 11 stat 5 drop. | ||
