The players must find a solution against the greatest plague in Hearthstone: The reign of the Secret Paladin continues.
Left to their own devices
Of all the plagues that the Hearthstone meta has endured in recent months, the Secret Paladin is currently one of the most annoying. Not only does the Mysterious Challenger have solid stats of 6/6 for 6 mana, its battlecry increases the value to absurd heights. For each secret of the Paladin, one is placed on the battlefield. With 5 different secrets, that’s a mana value of 11 for just 6 mana – not to mention the fact that this allows 6 cards to be played simultaneously, something that hardly any other class can manage.
Blizzard, in the form of Mike Donais, is well aware of the issue with this card but does not want to intervene. “Before the expansion The Grand Tournament, everyone complained that Paladin secrets were too weak. Now you hardly hear those voices anymore.”
This is true on one hand, of course, but ignores the call for a nerf.
Nevertheless, Donais hopes that players will be able to counter the mysterious Paladin. “Recently, we have been seeing cards like Wild Pyromancer more often in Priest decks, and they perform well against the Secret Paladin.”
For this reason, there is probably no card in the latest expansion “The League of Explorers” that specifically counters so many secrets. They simply want to wait and give the community time to develop their own suitable answers.
Maybe the creative minds can develop exciting decks with the 45 new cards of the League of Explorers that will give the annoying Lightweaver a good run for their money.
