He is surprisingly good in Priest. Also Resurrect can be ridiculous. I did turn 3 Injured, no heal, died, turn 4 double Resurrect. Two 4/7s on turn 4. There is some way of making a really strong tempo Priest in there, but I haven't figured it out yet.
Well if you're playing tempo you'd want to be playing 1 and 2 mana minions so you'd have a chance to rez them. But it may still be good tempo mid game for only 2 mana. Thats why I don't think the "dream" ressurect/ibm is that good, you have to forgo playing any minions turn 1/2 and you have to have a two card combo in your hand early game.

Foe Reaper sounds kind of interesting in Priest. Could be worth

What I was running into today was nothing like what others here say they are hitting. Not a single Hunter. I think this was from Rank 12-9

Yeah I don't know what you were running, but I was having all kinds of trouble with Druids too. The amount of times I lost from 28 health or some crazy shit due to Thaurissan blowouts had to be > 50%.

Well played control warrior until I saw too many priests and paladins, then switched to rogue and did okay.

As for Emperor Thaurissian I played him in both decks (replaced Rag in Warrior and replaced Edwin in Rogue).
Emperor in control warrior is meh, most of their spells are so expensive that changing them from 8 to 7 isn't going to alter your next turn very much, and typically he gets removed the turn he's played since warrior is so threat light. Emperor in Oil Rogue on the other hand.... seems nearly unbalanced.

I still feel like Sylvanas is the better value for many decks that were using her, but I haven't played around with Emp personally. Probably grinding midrange pally soon once I'm done my golden mage. I guess I'll see how Emp goes in Sylv's slot.

I think Emperor is the best card of the new set but I also think people have overreacted a bit with him.

He can, and will, win games flat out but he can be really clunky. For example: Unless you have the coin, you won't be getting a turn 6 Dr. Boom or a turn 6 Flamestrike. The only benefit is you have 1 mana left over after casting him. But what are you going to drop that late in the game for 1 mana? He's going to be great in decks like Ramp Druid and Oil Rogue (as people said above) but I don't think he's auto-include in every deck. There are a lot of cases where Sylvanus is straight up better.

Just seems like emp is either going to snowball(maybe)or simply die with only minimal benefit. Yeah it might draw off removal and make some shitty trades, but so does Sylvanas except usually even more awkward trades. You can just remove emp and its over, with Sylvanas you're forced to be very careful about how you deal with her. She can straight up ruin someone's turn completely and waste cards in very bad ways. Emp is just if you can get rid of it, then kill it, no other thought required. Also Sylvanas can draw off a silence, which is often the only one they have. That's better than seeing Tirion silenced in the pally's case.

I'm in the middle of ranked match. It's the opponents turn and the game just sort of stalls out. I can emote and interact with my screen, but the rope burn never comes. It's been his turn for like 3 minutes and nothing is happening. Anyone else having issues? Never seen this before.

How's that? BNet window says I'm playing and I can emote and hover over cards. Was winning a ranked match. I was thinking that the other guy did something on purpose. This is annoying.

Thanks. Annoying... hope this doesn't become "a thing". They could at least let you know when you have disconnected instead of just leaving you in limbo.

Well it happens infrequently but once you start to recognize the signs, you'll know to just close Hearthstone and fire it right back up, and with luck you won't have missed a turn before you reconnect to your opponent.

Is this something the opponent can do on purpose to not take a loss?
Your opponent is getting a free win, not ducking out of a loss. It would be a very major bug if you could reliably disconnect your opponent and Blizzard would be falling all over themselves to fix it.

Seems there's a new warrior net deck that just hit the scene, Grim Patron + Warsong Commander. Word from the wise, kill that fucking Commander immediately!
