Not being able to clear a players board anymore once they get this combo with Titus and Moira to me is too OP.
A t7 minion that interacts with another T7 minion, is op?
Yeah u dont say, its almost like there is a reason these are T7,
even getting the right one
if you manage to get the ability to obtain them, is RNG.
And even then, its for a tribe, undead,
which has had issues the past patches, being
crushed by every other tribe.
My Apologies,
Taking back what I said above here, having played enough
both with and against Ghoul-Acabra, Nightmare is fine.
The issue is however with Ghoul-acabra.
(blizz link not loading correctly atm)
This thing is just overwhelmingly overpowered. Even as an undead main, who played it even though it was having its weak downtimes during the past few patches;
Ghoul-acabra is NOT the way to “fix” undead, Blizz xD
This thing is so overwhelmingly strong, I was able to have a comeback from seriously losing a game, being outmatched in stats, the same turn as I got it, (as long as I had 1-2 deathrattles on board).
Seen plenty other players do the same now, this thing can singlehandedly solo carry builds, not even needing it golden (but golden makes it even more bonkers).
Unlike reborn, deathrattles cant be overwritten by reborn, as reborn can be overwritten by deathrattles;
example scenario; opponent cleaves or aoes your board, making a lot of the t1 skeletons die at the same time, they all having been buffed with reborn.
What would have happened, is all of the skeletons deathrattles activate, flooding the board, while reborn wouldnt even proc, hence being “overwritten” as it activates AFTER deathrattles, and ONLY if there is space on the board.
I mention this example as we previously had this;
Sister Deathwhisper.
Its effect previously only affected undead, but was buffed to affect all minions and even THEN its still “meh”. due to how reborn functions.
Deathrattles on the other hand, are much easier to both activate, as well as get on other minions, and Ghoul-acabra, then giving 2/2, +1 attack over Deathwhisper baseline, is really insane.
When Ghoul-acabras effect thus is so strong, and even then activates multiple times (due to it being from a deathrattle triggered, not happened, meaning you dont even need board space to activate it) compared to Deathwhisper, I do agree this thing needs a serious nerf.
Id say it would still be extremely strong if it was just +1/1, the buff, imo.

The ghoul is basically an auto grab in BG’s ATM. If it’s in the tribe mix you can be guaranteed everyone is racing to get one first and those that get it with even a couple DR’s are going to dominate. It should start at +1/+1 100%.

I just got back since the new patch. Do you know if this was nerfed?
Yes, you cannot use the bird to trigger the DR’s on your minions that triggers the ghoul. The minions have to die now to trigger the Ghoul DR procs.
Barely. Ye, the deathrattles cant be force triggered anymore, but its still overwhelming
