@Adeptus Enginus: But the scissors would be correct since rock paper scissors is a perfectly balanced game. Dismissing an argument just because the one making it is biased would be the genetic fallacy.

@Adeptus Enginus: Maybe if oil rogue didn't just spend the entire patron era in tier 4...

Why do people keep saying Patron warrior demands skill? Yes it is harder to play than Facehunter. No, that is not an achievement.

@Undying3132: It doesn't seem like there's any problem with drawing boobs for Jaina. Although Valeera isn't exactly accurate on that issue either.

@OleJ: The joke is that Rogue is the one arguing that Patron isn't imbalanced, when an Oil Rogue deck is one of the only ones in the game that can reliably counter Patron, thus giving her a blatant bias. It's Scissors telling Rock that Paper is Balanced.

Anyone care to explain why a fair matchup would be considered a bad thing?

Can you pretty please draw more of valeera? she looks pretty cute in this arc

btw, i think the warsong nerf WAS too much, but yet i really don't know a way to nerf the deck,making it fun to play and less infuriating.

If this is so, this is a clear example of bad balance architecture.
Everything you're doing is buffing randomly and chopping off the top just so that it's dead or almost unpicked for ages. Look at rogue, you killed it and its only escape was a counter. Come on blizzard, check your shit.

@NFB: Boobs are hard to draw man. Besides, gender-swapping is all the rage now.

Is noone going to bring up the major flaw in this comic?!!!

Warsong Commander is a woman! See here, the full card art: http://hearthstone.gamepedia.com/File:Warsong_Commander_-_art.jpg

So who is that person sitting in the middle between Frothing and Patron?

We are going to need more Jain Proudmoore in this comic. Lots.

@Elodin: How dare you say they should delete Grim Patron! I've won many a game with them in tavern brawls and in the arena; and as a mage too! Don't imply that card's only worth is to combo with Warsong Commander, it is better than that and you know it!

The biggest thing for me with Patron Warrior was how cheap the deck was to create once you'd gained the Adventure only cards.

When the only legendary you need is Emperor Thaurissan, it completely removes the random element of card packs and the highest cost of crafting a deck.

Second: The Warsong nerf was too much. It completely killed Patron warrior. Yes, Patron is strong and it needed a nerf, but this completely invalidates the deck. They should have nerfed Frothing, as that's the card that usually creates OTK from an empty board. They might as well delete Grim Patron.

First of all: Yes, I played the Indivisible demo. I enjoyed it a lot and plan on backing the project soon, though I will admit the controls can be confusing in combat. Hopefully they work on clarity before they release the final product. Still, it was a lot of fun and I do love Lab Zero.

I'm torn. Normally I hate Valeera because rogue decks are always annoying, but she looks really cute here.

Voting for Valeera to become a recurring character. The way Jo draws her is just too cute! (Cry-cute Valeera in last panel *squee*) ;-p

I know this is about the Patron deck, but how can you have a courtroom comic and not include Phoenix Wright?! I mean this is madness!!!

@Håkon Moen: As stated by Ben Brode: Charge (as a mechanic) limits design space, and minions that give charge to other minions as a state based effect are even more restricting, since you always need to keep that state based effect in mind in future cards.

Wouldn't it be better to change frothing berserker's stats to 4/something for something to make it unaffected by warsong commander? this would make the patron warrior less OP while still keeping the warsong patron combo.

@Corey Fisher: Any class card which is nerfed means one less good card to draft when you go arena, and since it's a class card you'll see it a bit.

Pretty sure Arena Warrior doesn't care all that much what you do to a combo deck...

Sorry if you've already been asked this, Jo, but have you played any of the Ace Attorney games?
