Just nerf this OP Druid strat. Why do you let them gain 3k+ armor. Nerf Earthen scales then. Nerf Dew Process more. The last nerf wasnt enough. It should cost 6-8 mana not 4. Why do you let double it through Solar Eclipse?.
Just nerf something of all of this.
No don’t nerf it, as others will say “just use platebreaker” lol
But yeah I play this deck a lot (no guff though, he is for scrubs) and it is pretty stupid/broken but then again there are answers like dirty rat or Objection and stuff like that
If it’s a druid chances are people won’t even think to keep platebreaker in their starting hand (unless they were previously traumatized by the strat OP described once already)
Can i May have your Deck-Code?
I’ve played Linecracker Druid a Lot some years ago, and it was one of my all time Favorits.
Yeah sure there are many versions/variants and you can mix and match or use what you like or think works best at your disposal, like I said I do not use Guff (even if I wanted to or if he is better to use, which he probably is, I don’t have the card, and even if I did I wouldn’t play him anyway on principle of what it can accomplish with so much ease aka it’s lame/not cool) that being said, I think my list is a principled list for True Druids

I actually haven’t played it in awhile though been playing other decks, I was thinking of getting rid of one of the Pendant’s of Earth, maybe one of the Satyr’s as well. I found 2 Flowerchild was too much, but 2 is still worthy of consideration. Oh yeah and it’s Renathal ever since he was reverted, the extra HP can help vs rushdown before you get your stuff, and the deck is large and draws and stalls a lot anyway, without Renathal it can become more consistent but also more cramped and less ability to survive aggro. Either way works, it’s up to you. Hope this helps you, have fun!
Why are you even complaining about this combo?
This deck isn’t actually that good. There are other combo decks that are better/more popular.
I’ll admit, it can FEEL worse to lose to this combo, because the combo doesn’t actually kill you; it just lets you slowly die to fatigue while the druid sits behind a ton of armor.
Unless you’re saying that this deck is actually performing well in the meta?
do you kill linecracker ?
played vs several who make the mistake of letting it out alowing me to use it to buff my armor too
I auto concede vs mages
With how fast people be moving cards the moment they get their exoida combo in hand I’m now convinced everyone who uses this strat is a bot.
I don’t know that Dew Process is the problem here since it doesn’t enable the combo.
Solar Eclipse into Beeees!!! on the other hand…
But, yeah Linecracker Druid is too broken.
Nobody is going to run Platebreaker in their deck (except maybe mirror opponents) just in case. In any other match up there are much better things to do for 5 mana. (Maybe bring its stats & cost down to a 2/2 for 2, to make it more playable against other decks?) That said, I’m not even convinced PB is enough to move the needle.
Disturbingly, the variant I’ve been encountering somehow continues after the combo has gone off as if a Yogg just got dropped, cycling through the rest of the deck, still going well past when the fuse runs out, and ending with a perfect hand (as if 1200+ shields wasn’t enough) to reload their deck and stomp their opponent… every time.
I don’t play Druid enough to know how that part works, and cards fly by too fast for me to jot down what’s being played, but I can’t imagine this deck loses very often. (Guff, Emperor, and ETC are definitely in there, though they are part of the end game package.)
IDK… Maybe there’s something to the suggestion that these are bot-driven, and the deck is hot poop when a human is piloting it?
Yeah nobody would use it in their main deck but they’d want it offhand on their ETC after running into it enough times
i felt really bad when i misplayed against this. i had a Amulet of Passions that let me steal control of an opponent’s creature for a turn from Griftah that I played and I just killed the linecracker instead of stealing him and hitting the druid in his armored up face for all his armor worth of damage. or at least half his armor, I can’t remember if he played two earthen scales. Then again, I would have had to have a taunt or a way to kill the linecracker that turn while under my control or the linecracker would have killed ME his next turn, so oh well. I always lose these games.
armor is worthless vs exodia
If it’s so overpowered then how come I go months at a time without coming across someone playing it?
Because druid has another deck that can OTK on turn 3 if they have the coin
Linecracker druid has been a meme for years, Leo thinks every single deck he loses against is overpowered and that every win condition needs to be nerfed except for whichever one he’s running.
Mill Druid featuring Linecracker is very much not a meme (originally it was a meme, sure, but now with all the card additions over the years, it’s a highly viable strategy). Idk why out of all decks that get talked about, anytime someone brings up how problematic Linecracker is, they always call it a meme, when it isn’t.
