I'm very ready for this week to be done. Integration and transitioning roles is so exhausting. Just let me do my thing that I know how to do. | ||

What is dreadsteed supposed ot even do? Even if you can use Rivendare and shit, who cares about a bunch of 1/1? | ||

I don't think it's very good, but I can see where it has potential. | ||

Lots of low cost, low stat minions that you use to make advantageous trades against bigger things. And Dreadsteed is Zoo that doesn't die unless you silence it, which is pretty decent. It makes a great Power Overwhelming target, they can be reliably buffed by Defender of Argus/Sunfury Protector, you can eat them with Void Terror and have them stick around... it's actually not bad, but you have to combo with it, they suck by themselves. | ||

I don't see a conceivable scenario where DLC as a *concept* wouldn't exist. So arguing that it's existence is a negative impact on game development philosophies might be right, but is also an utterly pointless argument to make. I suppose so. I guess this is where the community feedback / buying power needs to be enough to stop them from being abused too much but i fear we will become complacent and it will get worse. Batman was a good example of how it can work tho. | ||

Yes but it's a 1/1 for 4. Not a 2/1 for 1. Cards that you have to heavily build around are often just not good cards. | ||

Unless it's silenced, it's multiple 1/1 Demons for 4. That's sorta like Implosion, but with less burst and more board. And people build decks heavily around lots of things all the time, dunno why you'd think that doesn't happen. It's somewhere between Combo and Zoo. | ||

If you're a zoo deck, giving up your entire turn 4 to play a 1/1 is godawful. Like...you have to hope it gets summoned out by that 3/4 dude, but then you're not having the bigger demons with more impact get summoned out. | ||

Terrible in Zoo, and not useful in any control decks. | ||

And people build decks heavily around lots of things all the time, dunno why you'd think that doesn't happen. It's somewhere between Combo and Zoo. That's not what he's saying. Most combo/synergy components are good value cards in and of themselves that get even better with synergistic interactions. But intrinsically the cards themselves are decent value or consistent without any further investment. Realistically if you were going to do some Rivendare Deathrattle combo shit, there's a bunch of stuff that you could play that would just win the game rather than taking time building up a bunch of 1/1s. They'd win the game long before your Dreadsteeds good do anything remotely threatening AND they're already better cards in and of themselves. Think how much you have to do with Dreadsteed+Rivendare compared to just using Skittles for 2 mana less. Also, it seems like it'd be pretty funny to lose a game due to Dreadsteeds clogging your board given that once you have a full board of Dreadsteeds, you have no way to actually free up board space to play anything unless you have a way to silence your own Dreadsteeds because killing one will instantly replace itself unless it loses its Deathrattle. | ||
