Twist C'Thun Removal from hand

C’Thun is an essential card for his deck, if removed from hand for some reason (example: Mutanus the Devourer) the card should be considered dead. Instead it’s currently considered non-existent and unrecoverable, making the deck dead and unplayable into any twist deck. Could we get a bug fix so C’Thun can be recoverable in some form, so there is an objective to play to if there is a removal of him from hand.

This is not a bug
You’re asking for a design rework on how the game has been intended to work since it exists

I understand it’s not a bug, didn’t know where else to put it.

It’s just a design overlook, since there are ways to "regain C’thun in the deck. They are just not working as intended. All other decks don’t seem to encounter such issue cause their mechanic isn’t so centered around 1 card to be a win con, but C’thun suffers of this so much that the health has been increased multiple times in the adjustments made. Giving extra health to C’thun doesn’t adjust the deadly effect of not having the only win con if C’thun gets rng removed and unrecoverable.

The cards are working as intended.
It is intended that you can generate copies of C’Thun after one has died.
If none died, they don’t do their thing, that’s the intent.

C’Thun is just one of the worst heroes of the mode (health totals put aside), not because it’s centered around one card, but because it’s increadibly slow. Next actual balance patch (that is not health-only) we’re supposed to see adjustments in passives, hero powers and decklists (which they can’t change on the fly as easily as health totals).
They could improve the decklist by removing bad cards, giving it new ones, and even changing the hero power (making it free and/or discounting the discovered minions for example). If we weren’t paying such an expensive cost for the C’Thun buffers, the hero would be much stronger.
But regardless, this is a balance/design change request, not a bug to be fixed. C’Thun decks always had that problem you’re describing, it’s not an oversight that this same interaction is still the same hard counter to that same card 8 years later
