I mean, yeah, but if Blizz get that contridictory, HS is down the drain. Also, "A Charge minion that can't attack face" were the words of @Poondaedalin. I was simply pointing out, yeah, actually, they've done this. Once.

I know teh point of the conversation was to say "They will never print a card that contradicts a keywords's intent." (Roughly) and i'm sorry if i came across as that guy.

@Cosmic14 not really, since Charge doesn’t explicitly mean “can attack HEROES immediately”. Something that would disprove the third point would be a Charge minion with “Can't attack”, or a Taunt minion with “Doesn’t have to be attacked first”, or a Stealth minion with “Can be targeted while in Stealth

@Poondaedalin.

Icehowl is a card. One of three points gone.

@DestroyerR Your third point is especially important. Blizzard would never print a minion that ignores Taunt, or a spell that can target Elusive minions, or a Charge minion that can’t attack face. Cards like that go directly against their design philosophy, unless it was intentionally going against their design philosophy for a joke, like Tirion’s gang of idiots from the starting mission of Icecrown.

1. I generally don’t support card bundles, but in this case it’s a must. Individually, those cards are just weird.

2. The whole shtick of the deck is pretty boring, as it can be achieved by 1 Epic card and doesn’t include any strategy.

3. Ignoring or contradicting mechanics is generally not a very good idea balance-wise, since it kind of waters down what the mechanics are supposed to do.

All in all, not a fan.

Biggest mystery is why this is a TGT card when Renounce Darkness came out in WotG :jaraxxus-thinking:
Nice idea though, I like the card
2* Design since this is just Tess as a Warlock card with slightly better stats (and again TGT when the card this is supposed to support is in WotG)
5* Balance since this is an insane tempo/value boost (arguably better than Tess' since your whole deck could be other classes rather than what you'd normally steal in Rogue) but I don't think it's too overpowered since this is your 'key finisher' in a Renouncelock deck.

Maybe you should have specified every non-Warlock class card? As-is this already replays every Neutral card you played this game without Renouncing, and I'm not sure that's intended.

I think people just like the idea, so they upvoted most if not all cards related to it.

Of course. I love this mechanic a lot. I think its pretty cool like every one else. But seriously. How did this many cards with this exact Mechanic get into the gallery. I need to take some notes.
