![]() We just had an emergency hotfix earlier this week banning The Jailer from Standard and Wild. I’m rarely 100% sure about a nerf, but this one is basically guaranteed. And so, your opponent needs to deal with that 7/5 body even more than if he was just a normal 7/5 that can attack. He NEEDS to get removed, because even though he doesn’t get to attack the turn after you play him, he gets to do something even better (use one of the other abilities). You might say that his statline is not important because he almost never gets to live until his second turn – but that’s exactly why his stats matter too. Or a lot of 1/1’s ( Chaotic Tendrils) that most of the time give you a lot of extra value. Many decks can make him cost 0 mana very, very quickly – and then he’s just a 0 mana 7/5 giving you Mind Control or a better Mass Hysteria. Most of the decks can do it – even if the main build doesn’t run that many of them, there are some extra tricks to make it work (like Hunter’s 3 in 1 spells such as Bunch of Bananas or cards that draw/generate more spells like Nerubian Vizier). But as it turns out, it’s not that hard to cast a lot of spells nowadays. It makes sense, right? You need to cast a lot of spells to discount him. Sure, at first he only saw play in decks that were basically fully made of spells. More and more people realize that they can put him into their decks. Those aren’t official stats, of course, but HSReplay has a big enough sample size to be pretty on point. Going down to Diamond, it keeps a strong 41% play rate (#1) and even in Bronze-Gold it’s at 35% play rate (#1). ![]() But it’s not just Legend thing that doesn’t affect the rest of the ladder. That obviously puts it it at #1 spot in terms of popularity. The number was at 51% yesterday, so it’s still growing. At the time I’m writing this, the card is present in 54% of decks in Legend. I won’t go as far as “the strongest”, but it’s up there. Or maybe let’s put it another way – Yogg-Saron, Unleashed is one of the strongest card released in the last few expansions.
