I honestly think this gives the card a not insignificant amount of potential that Regis didn’t really consider. Because if you have to draw six cards to maybe draw three that’s obviously bad. But if the card can trigger of itself you can easily turn a draw 2 into a draw 4 or 5 which is pretty efficient. I obviously don’t think the card is great but it might carve a niche for itself in decks that have good draw but not consistent draw.

burnt cards aren't usually considered drawn, although with blizz spaghetti code you never know. I also don't think we have confirmation if it triggers off itself or not, but assuming it does that means, on average, it doubles the amount of cards you draw - it's just very swingy, as orges tend to be.

I can’t wait until Mark rushes an October-masseuse into an Ashtongue with power overwhelming

I’ve got wonder: can the package dealer trigger off of itself? If you’re extraordinarily unlucky, could it just draw your entire deck?

@fishladdie

Burning a card doesn’t count as drawing a card, so it’ll only ever draw one past your hand size at once.

Package Dealer (potential) math if it can draw cards off it's own effect: You take the odds of the previous chance and divide it by two. When you draw 1 card, you have a 50% chance to draw 2, a 25% chance to draw 3, a 12.5% chance to draw 4, a 6.25% chance to draw 5, a 3.125% chance to draw 6, a 1.5625% chance to draw 7, a 0.78125% chance to draw 8, a 0.390625% chance to draw 9, a 0.1953125% chance to draw 10, etc. This effect can trigger _whenever_ you draw cards, including the start of your turn and during your opponent's turn when effects that make you draw cards trigger, examples includes Loot Hoarder or Coldlight Oracle.

@HuriKhanD

Yeah it actually pretty much doubles your card draw on average, lots of variance tho.

10:15 , thats actually not true i think, since it can draw off of itself, so the series converges at actually doubling the amount you draw. still not incredible but im willing to bet there is a mark mckenzie combo in there somewhere

This applies to a lot of Minions and can honestly be a boon sometimes, randomly getting something you can play around!even if it was never an intent for the deck is a wonderful feeling.

I can already see Mark's video with package dealer.

I see a few really good ideas for that card in Shaman a definite must use in deck.Use after hagatha buffs with 2/3++ if waiting until after Shudder. There are a few other subtle ideas but one thing for certain if shaman ever gets a tier 1 deck it gets nerfed faster than any other class in the game which is why it is always at the bottom of the tier list.

. . . Does Package Dealer trigger off _itself?_

Hahaha I was about to comment that Mark will love the Octo-Masseuse! Very excited for the 1 pot 3 drop. You could play it with Shutterblock or other tricks like the Paladin legend for extra value.

Octo Masseuse + Always a bigger jormungar

Alright deck intro time

Hmm question came up mentally at Package Dealer if you roll the 50% chance does it trigger off itself drawing a card as well since the effect mentions after but no limit on it

I think the Octo is a good defensive card for the control decks that do nothing but wait until late game, they don't need to do direct damage at that time + it's tough for aggro decks to deal with.

Okay but can’t package dealer technically go infinite? It doesn’t specify that it won’t trigger off of its own effect. In theory it could draw 2+ extra cards off of one original card drawn, no?

@@markos50100 Good to know!

One thing to note about Package Dealer (from 11:00). The way the card is worded, the extra draw can itself proc an extra draw, and that draw could proc an extra draw etc. If you do the math, you actually get on average 1 extra card per card drawn, so you need to play a draw 3 (not a draw 6) to get (on average) a draw 3. Still think the card is bad but it's worth mentioning regardless :D

I'm really looking forward to Mark's video on the octopus

Is octo-masseuse a good card for paladin’s lifesteal aura??? It would have 2 attack after the buff and deal 16 damage to a minion and heal your hero for 16. Seems kinda intriguing. Still don’t know about the card seeing play but there might be a world

FYI package dealer basically doubles the amount of cards you draw. Obviously a lot of variance with that 50% chance to have no effect, but there's a 12.5% chance to get at least 3 extra cards, the ceiling is really high. Still difficult to play but definitely a must-kill target for your opponent next turn unless they don't care about your card draw. Card is gonna be really good in arena.

I see a great place for Patches in Wave of Nostalgia Shaman, helps you just have a few extra stray bodies to evolve. Not a ton of early plays in Shaman anyway

Will the octo-masseuse deal octuple damage with “always a bigger jormunger” dealing excess damage to the enemy hero?

That's great stats for the cost what do you mean he's bad?

Doesn't Package Dealer have a teeny tiny chance to kill you when you draw a card, because you might get another draw off the another draw... and then another and another and another

Package Dealer in a Patches deck though? Casts when drawn just to draw the deck fast? Seems like a Mark combo.

HS 2024, a 4 mana 8/8 neutral control card a against minion isn't good enough? If patches is good, its the type of effect that will flip tables.

Octo-masseuse in Handbuff. If it survives one turn it can win the game.

Package dealer is 50% to get another card, whenever you draw so it should stack on itself. Its a geometric series. On average, you would expect it to double your draw, not increase it by 50%. So if its out and you draw 4, you would expect it to draw another 4 (not 2). Not sure how much more viable that makes it, but it is more draw than you gave it credit for.

I think you should give the Octopus slightly more respect, it's at least a 2 star card. Any time you're competing for the board it's functionally a 4 mana 8/8. I think it could actually be a monster in Priest in a control vs control matchup. Give it any buff and you have history's greatest taunt breaker. Top it up with heals every now and again and your opponent is forced to burn hard removal to stop you from realising infinite value on it. I'm not saying it for sure works out in any given meta, but it has way stronger use cases than you implied in the video.

Octo masseuse sounds turbo broken in wild with certain cards in there

Mixologist with Rogue sonya is gonna be powerful

Guess there is a chance the new card might work though perhaps not since I don't think it had Ogre anywhere on it either & it's not worth working out the balancing it to account for it.

Package dealer is being slept on

I am a bit more dubious on Patches, because he is a demon which is pretty bad for Umpire's Grasp.

Does Package Dealer trigger off of its own draws? Because if so then it's a 25% chance to draw 2 extra cards when you draw a card, or a 12.5% chance to draw 3 extra, or a 6% chance to draw 4 extra, and so on, which overall works out to be one extra card per draw on average, but a chance for crazy high rolls. And if that's true it's probably still a bad card for most decks, but I could see some sort of wild self-mill OTK deck with it. If you had that on board and played gaslight gatekeeper with a full hand you might draw your whole deck.

If they have it already give reborn as well.

I honestly think octo-masseuse has some potential in mech or beast decks. Maybe even menagerie decks that use hand buffing. Just because 8 health for 4 mana is a pretty good amount is stats. And any buff you give it’s attack is also octupled. So it already starts off as a chunky minion that trades very well and having the two minion types it does gives it access to lots of potential buffs. Imagine being able to give it life steal it letting it deal damage to minions without attacking or rush or diving shield. Both it’s types give it access to basically all of those buffs and more just in neutral.

Would the potential second card drawn off Package Dealer also have 50% to draw another card, and so on? Not that this card is good if that’s the case, but it would absolutely be fun to win several coin flips and draw several cards at once

Octo-Masseuse is a mech so it may be a 2 star card

Patches + package dealer goes hard

As it currently stands, Patches the Pilot is a 3/5 card. Outside silly "Week 1-2 of the Expansion" type shenanigans, which will always feature several bad combos that steal wins, he's just too unreliable. Even if DH can draw a lot of cards, they currently can't really use 1/1 Charge minions for high burst damage, and you really want to draw towards something better. And while Shaman can use Bloodlust, that's only Standard available via Thrall's Gift which means 6 mana total and you'd need to get lucky to have multiple in play at the same time. All the combos people are pulling out in the comments are exactly those "Week 1-2 of the Expansion" type things that don't actually work out in the long run. Yes, he will steal games in the firsr couple of weeks, but the design is not something that breaks the game wide open for Shaman or DH. And I'll stand by that assessment until we have the full picture of the expansion. Which would include the Priest cards, as the DH Tourist goes there.

They should bring back "dredge". Was a cool thing to have. Also the cards shown look very uncreative and the arts look like for a 5 year old.

The fact it isn't package-fist orge makes it a 0 star.

Based off the wording, the package dealer can proc off its own draws. This actually makes it extremely dangerous with any deck that wants to run out of cards. Theres probably a hard cap, but i imagine you could draw your entire deck off just 1 draw if you just kept winning coinflips.

I feel like patches is overrated. Its not start of game like it was before, this is at best if you get lucky you get some 1/1s to attack with. Otherwise a 1 mana 1/1. It will be a terrible topdeck mid game as well.
