Boomboss is going to be a problem

Multiplayer Discussion

This card needs to be fixed. It’s not a fair effect to destroy cards in all three places.

I’ve had so many interesting games just ruined by this card.

I really feel strongly that deleting cards that have not been played is the best way to run off players from this game. This card should have never been printed and it certainly should have the effect changed to not do all three.

As if control decks aren’t bad enough, now their control is just to delete your deck and lol.

This card will be on everyone’s radar after rotation as it’s likely going to be the primary win con of warriors - take you to fatigue by deleting battlefield, hand, and deck with this effect.

I would disagree by saying that Warriors are still in need of creating a board that allows Boomboss to be played, but with infinite removal it’s not that hard.

What are you talking about? They draw their whole deck, play brann, dump it, and gg. Usually with 20+ armor to boot.

How do you read my text and not seeing I am agreeing with you.
‘creating a board’ I mean create a board that doesn’t have pressure from the other side, to allow Boomboss to be played …

Again and again, Brann is the problem.

What’s wrong with Blizzard to give Bran to Warrior and Warrior only?!!!

Not to mention now we have many neutral minions that can bounce.
They can bounce it and play it again, basically deleting your whole hand and deck.

Because your sentence structure wasn’t very clear? There’s no tone in written forums, so hard to hear the sarcasm.

But they have so much armor, removal, and clear. They aren’t even bothering to play highlander, going ahead and running duplicates of cards and not even giving a hoot because the stall is that good.

Again, destroying hands and decks is not good game play. The entire point of the game is to play your cards…

It’s not sarcasm though.
The first sentence is a fair point that one would make if they were to defend the deck.

I just used that while also replying back to it.
It’s a fair thing to say that Boomboss is an 8/8 do-nothing, threfore you should be able to just apply pressure to not allow it to hit the board, but with infinite removal it’s not hard to get past that. That’s my point, I hate Brann Warrior as much as the next guy.

This is an upgraded Bran with Permanent double battlecry.
Everyone was requesting Blizzard to Hall of Fame the vanilla Bran last year.

Now this? How is it not a joke?!

THis is the major point, for real, though!

It’s a rest of game effect. It can be combined with anything now. Before you had to have the mana to play it because brann died, but now? You can just lol @ everyone and spam broken battlecries.

As if this matters… the decks they’re playing it in all have duplicates.

Yes, it’s great that the whole meta is warrior or counter warrior. Ideal balance and fantastic game design.

a bit too soon to predict the new meta without astalor the deck loses a lot of damage output

I am unsure that Astalor is a requirement to be successful.

There are several large threats and Boomboss is pretty damning when it is played late.

Astalor is a ridiculous interaction with Bran.
Total four copies of 8 cost 28 damage.
WTF

I do not disagree that it is very powerful, I am saying it may not even be required for the deck to be effective.

I’m really hoping that the loss of Astalor/Finley/Dredge really makes Brann Warrior extremely mediocre so that Boomboss doesn’t see play.

I don’t know if it can recover from losing those.

However, as the year progresses, it could be an issue later with new battlecry cards.

I have to see what battlecry cards Warrior is losing to make a decent judgement. But they can’t even go to the Lorthemar > Trenchstalker combo either because they lose those IIRC. So, I don’t think the deck will be that good.

And, most importantly, Plague DK has zero counters. So that will completely wreck Brann. No more steamcleaner combos.

The biggest thing will just be Odyn Warrior and Mech Warrior somewhere in Tier 3-4 land.
