Current ability: Battle cry: if you have 10 mana crystals gain +7/+7
Proposed Buff Ability: This minion gets +7/+7 when you have 10 mana crystals or more.
Explanation: Toyrantus ability being a battle cry really takes away from his prowess as a legendary card. When revived it comes back as its base 7/7, which for 6 mana in this meta is pretty subpar. If his ability becomes passive, then he can really fit into a scheme with the new hydration station changes . He would be a viable minion to resummon and not feel underwhelming in the field, thus creating a fun archetype and playstyle.
Correction: it would be a broken minion to resummon then
It’s a no from me
Look at paladins’ every minion with stats above 5/5 for no cost (sometimes up to ~12). Dino will be played in late game that should has strong minions like this. And there will be only 3 of them (usually). You didn’t crush this druid on the 6th turn? Be ready to die
Yeah, that’s the problem, Druid is already too strong
He can have 10+ mana while his opponent still has 5, good luck dealing with 14/14 elusive taunt minion with 5 mana
It’s just unfair, not really something I’d like to see happen in a game I play to relax
take 1 hit and push it to jail with your 5 mana. it just ruins everything
also you have more chances to get only 1 card vs druid to have these 5 cards at the start of game
idk why agro decks don’t use jail (except warlocks). it just deletes creatures until the end of the game
Because they’re the aggressors, so are unlikely to drop below 20 during the course of the game
Once they do, they’re dead next turn either way
I contemplated putting it in my Sludgelock, but both Sludgelock and Insanitylock have a lot of healing, so the window in which you can play the card is usually very narrow
It’s unplayable for aggro decks.
kill your minions by hitting toy, toy has nothing to do next turn so it goes face, you place jail and try to pressure again
It’s completely normal where I play to hold on with attacking in such situations, if you know a deck is running something like that or Molten giant
Like, what deck archetype would be your Druid with Toyrantus?
Assuming it’s dragon tempo or control with or without Reno, you just don’t attack. You use it as a meat shield to survive until you draw your “I win cards”
It’s never going to work. Not in serious games.
if you don’t attack you don’t win. your toyrantus is your “I win card” (with station, but station won’t work without toy).
blizz make toy better → toy sometimes stomp agro → agro either go to forum to cry or use jail → jail sometimes defeat toy because of toy hit the opponent
you assume that toy 14/14 will be at the 6th turn every game but that is pure luck to have, that also means you have no board and no control spells
so you play funny relaxing games or serious ones?
idk why not to have something new, i want to all cards be playable and suitable. i’ve seen otk druid, show me another one at least one other deck
I’m a mixture of both, I do like my top 500 ranking and I’d like it to get better, but I also can’t make myself only play tier 1 decks to do it (and I know for a fact that shouldn’t be neccessary, as people occassionally hit rank 1 with tier 3 decks anyway)
Here I was talking about general population, most of the players play only to relax and have some fun
But in both cases, I can’t imagine anyone would enjoy playing against a 14/14 taunt elusive which gets resummoned twice xD
EDIT: Ok yeah, some classes would enjoy it, like DK with Reska and anyone willing to tech in Big Game Hunter to deal with it xD
But you only have 2x BGH and there’s potentially 3, maybe more (with Piper), Toyrannus

And the one you saw xD
None of them utilizes Toyrannus, luckily xD
they not utilize because of it has is not buffed yet, if they were utilizing them why would theme would be started?
if toyrantus winning games on turn 6 was remotely consistent you would of seen decks with its inclusion already. The fact that not one meta list is running it would suggest that it is underpowered. Toyrantus could help create a new druid archetype with hydration station. It would way more fun to play against this deck than the current concierge druid.
please yes lets buff the best class in the game, mm tasty druid mm
