Mind Control Tech is completely dependent upon letting your opponent get massive board control over you and then hoping you grab something good and not the 1/1.

He's not the worst rare but he's far from one of the best. I can think of like at least 10-20 off the top of my head I'd want over him.

mind control tech is still good as a 3/3 for 3 <_>.

quoting someones explanations on why mind control tech is incredible.

""Mind Control Tech is a Vanilla Test passer at 3/3 for 3 and he would get played without any ability at all. Regardless of the variance and conditional nature of his ability, it is still purely upside on an otherwise playable minion"

also its borderline top 5 one of the best neutral rares.

Argent Commander, Azure Drake, Knife Juggler, Twilight Drake, Stampeding Kodo, Defender of Argus, Sunwalker, probably even Emperor Cobra

You advocate that 3/3 for 3 is good and mind control tech is one of the best rares, but you told me that grizlly bear is a bad card.

i don't recall saying grizzly bear sucked?

it's fine, not great, and has none of the upside of MCT.

But it has taunt!!

Started an arena run with mage and got an incredible amount of 4 rares.
They were : Knife Juggler, Imp Master, Ancient Mage and Blizzard.
In rest I've got decent cards. Unfortunately only one fireball and one flamestrike (I had to choose between flamestrike and Polymorph ffs)

You always get at least 4 rares? Are you saying all those are bad

No. I'm saying I was hoping for more rares or epics. My opponent's always have 2 epics and some rares. I got only four which is pretty annoying.
All of those rares are pretty good in arena. Maybe Ancient Mage isn't in the same league as them, but I had to pick him out of three not so good cards ( I don't remember what)

Ancient mage is fun with stealth or board control.
Otherwise his ability is utter CRAP. And his stats don't justify it - 2 attack is just BAD at 4 drop unless you know you're getting multiple attacks off.

But gnomish inventor

Siveure DtTrikyp · Post Post #187 (ISO) » Sat Mar 01, 2014 11:21 am

Gnomish inventor ability is great - he has no card cost - it's essentially 4 mana and 0 cards for a 2/4, which is great.

so my last four legendaries opened have been

king mukla-king mukla-millhouse manastorm-golden king mukla.

grrr

the third was off a 9 win druid with 0 swipes/ironbarks was really kind of a shit deck.

But you can zap the golden one for any legendary you want!

Faceless doesn't copy goldiness?

Goldiness? What goldiness?

Tinkmaster & Pagle nerfs.

Tinkmaster is just dead now, why not just remove it from the game?

Pagle definitely isn't great now. I have one, I'm debating on DE it for full dust cost, but I don't know what to craft. It's my only neutral legendary. I have Al'Akir and Tirion Fordring.
