Goddammit (kdowns) I need a beta key

Your picks are generally fine. Priestess of Elune is a terrible card so I'd rather have the psudo-removal effect of Humility, and Bloodsail Raider is almost strictly better than Stormwind Knight considering your Truesilver + Coghammer combo. Not to mention 2-drops are sooooo important in draft.

[killerjester]

Stormwind Knight is dwarfed in comparison to your other 4-cost cards. The

very

best he can hope for is playing onto a board with two 3/2s (a situation you'd do well to avoid altogether), and often times he'll only trade out with one 3/2 and get 2 damage onto the other big threats that start coming out Turns 4-5; late game he's almost useless. This doesn't quite make the cut when you consider the cards you'd rather be playing on Turn 4.

Bloodsail on the other hand is an effective 2 drop in the early game if you don't draw into your Minibots

or

a sizable threat dropped midgame next to a Truesilver. Early board control is a very important idea in draft, particularly when you lack effective removal or big taunters. Your cards like Aldor Peacekeeper and Dark Iron Dwarf lose a lot of their potency for tempo if you can't establish early game presence with good 2 drops.

I'd almost always pick Bloodsail over Stormwind Knight for the virtue of a 2/3 2-drop alone; the extra attack is a nice bonus considering the weapons you already have in your deck.

Deck thinning has it's advantages, too.

Thoughtsteal is amazing in constructed because of everyone running powerful legendaries. I prefer it much less in arena.

[killerjester]

I think it was always 4.

[killerjester]

Lightwarden is trash for any class but Priest. And even then it's still terrible.

But see right there you're limiting yourself to a card that's only useful when:

1. You have appropriate buffs
2. You are putting out consistent heals
3. Your opponent has no hard-removal or silences

IMO she takes too long to get rolling, and any situation you

can

get her rolling is typically a win-more scenario. She's too fragile to drop onto a T1/T2 board alone unless you're following up with PW:S, and (for instance) if you drop her onto a T3 board + heal a body for 2 then you should consider her strictly outclassed by an Earthen Ring Farseer.

There are plenty of unintuitive mechanics. Here's a more detailed list so you don't, for example, play a Ragnaros into your opponent's 8/8 Gruul only to find out it gets hit for 8 while simultaneously becoming a 9/9. Go on, ask me how I know.

Good switch. I've added Dr. Boom to literally every deck.

[killerjester]

Unstable Portal is way too much fun. So is Thoughtsteal, for that matter.

[killerjester]

I'm trying to make a control warrior deck but I don't have Grommash, Alexstraza, Hearthstone, a computer, internet, a house, food, or clothes.

What should I put in instead?

[killerjester]

Marked for Death (1) - Hunter Class
Deal 2 damage, if the target doesn't die summon an Undertaker.

Challengestone was a good idea and was really cool to watch
