I just can't bring myself to care about Hearthstone anymore. Too many cookie cutter FOTM decks designed to be as cheap as possible, plus random nerfs and now excluding a bunch of older cards from standard play... All this for what? To make you buy more packs? Yawn...
Eh, I haven't seen a lot of face shamans since the release; or at least, successful ones. As for c'thun druids being auto-pilot, I don't think so. I've played around with it every now and then and found it to be tricky at times.
If you are running two cheap removal spells like shadow word: death in your deck, you have about a 50/50 chance of having any way to remove this guy at all. Heaven help you if you want to play a deck that is light on taunts, like my favorite, midrange hunter.
My concern with this card is that it is already higher than average value for a 6 mana card (+1 attack vs. Boulderfist Ogre), that you can play on turn 4. The options your opponent has are very limited, relying on them having their removal when they have played/drawn 1/4th their deck. -cont
While Aggro may not play it, I'm seeing a lot of midrange Shaman. One of my games was particularly bad: faceless turn 4 and I have nothing but freezing trap. He plays a Charge to clear the path, 7 to face. Didn't draw removal. On his turn, Windspeaker + Rockbiter + Coin + Lightning Bolt = lethal.
(cont.) Oh yeah, I'm so scared of your single 7/7 on turn 4. (/s) Every class has one way or another to deal with it and aggro does not have time for only one card being played. You kill my Direwolf Alpha? I literally have 3-4 other minions you still haven't addressed.
I honestly believe that anybody that is using Flamewreathed Faceless in an Evolve deck is mostly doing it wrong because it is designed to be scary for a big downside (2 mana Overload is pretty intense on turn 5), and aggro decks mostly ignore it because it doesn't have taunt. (cont. in next)
...it means that they CAN'T have a deppresive or serious ending. In the end, it's a Captain America movie, meaning that however wrong both sides are, Cap is the "right" one. If only they showed how much everybody lost, CW would be MUCH better.
Civil War is better than BvS indeed, but not "waaaaay" better. The whole movie is more concise and enjoyable, but the ending is kinda meh...
In a way they're opposite, BvS tried too hard to be "edgy" and the result was cringeworthy. Civil War adresses a pretty serious theme, but being Disney...
As for the other guy, he had a Sen'jin Shieldmasta, and he turned that into a Tundra Rhino. The Rhino has one less attack than the troll, no taunt, and he gives all your beasts the ability to charge, but this guy had no beasts, so that was a downgrade too.
I've seen that card backfire, once when I was using it and another time when the other player was. In my case I got a minion (I forget which one) that would have been useful if I got its Battlecry, but I didn't, so it wasn't.
On Topic: so far I have never seen anyone play the Flamewreathed Faceless. The most popular Shaman deck on Hearthpwn (the midrange Evolve one) doesn't use him.
Even though a 4 crystal 7/7 seems op he doesn't get much love from players apparently.
Civil War is good. Definitely better than Batman v Superman by far.
It's a bit complicated though. Just like The Winter Soldier the movie seems to make you want to think and argue about it but if you look at the reasons, especially for Stark, they're completely wrong.
Yeah, I have to agree. The only control decks which can thrive are the ones which can handle those absurd 7/7 turn 3/4 plays (Shadow Word: Death, Equality, Humility/Peacekeepers, Execute, Hunter's Mark, etc.). Playing a control Rogue is painful, and Druid is even worse.
