Changes: 4 mana 7/7

Latest revision as of 21:49, 20 October 2020

This is a silly article. While related to a real Hearthstone topic, it should not be taken too seriously.

4 mana 7/7 is a term used to refer to a well-balanced, very reasonably-statted minion. 4 mana 7/7s are rarely if ever seen in play, and when they do appear tend to have a minimal impact on the match. Blizzard is widely expected to add more 4 mana 7/7s in future, specifically in order to strengthen the ailing shaman class.

The page you might have been looking for is Flamewreathed Faceless, although Eerie Statue is a much better card as it doesn't overload and combines well with Purify.

How many Blizzard employees do you need to fix a lamp? It does not matter, because they cannot balance the ladder.

-You may be looking for:
-* [[Flamewreathed Faceless]], the most balanced card Blizzard has ever created.
+The page you might have been looking for is [[Flamewreathed Faceless]], although [[Eerie Statue]] is a much better card as it doesn't overload and combines well with [[Purify]].
-* [[Eerie Statue]], a rare Priest card without the Overload but costs you a [[Silence (card)|Silence]].
-* [[Ravenous Pterrordax]], for the price of one (1) friendly minion, you have about 2% chance of turning it into a 7/7. If you're less fortunate, at least a 7/4 with Windfury is decent consolation (just pray it lasts a turn).
-* [[Rattling Rascal]], another Epic Priest card without the Overload but costs you a [[Silence (card)|Silence]], but instead it splits up so it can survive a shot from a [[The Lich King|Lich King]].
-* [[Hooked Reaver]], a Warlock rare Taunt without the Overload & a [[Silence (card)|Silence]] but you need to be halfway dead. Luckily, we have [[Lord Jaraxxus]] which gives you a [[INFERNO!|cool new Hero Power]] also!
-* [[The Darkness]], a 4-mana '''20/20''', about as powerful as 2.8571428 Flamewreathes Facelesses (?)... But you can't even [[Face Hunter|SMOrc]] with it until your opponent blows out 3 candles.
-* [[Wispering Woods]], with 4 mana and a fat hand, you can bring out 7/7 worth of [[Wisp]]s! Hope they don't have [[Spirit Lash|some]] [[Arcane Explosion|crazy]] [[Despicable Dreadlord|counters]] [[Whirlwind|to]] [[Warpath|it]]!
-* [[Zandalari Templar]], in a show of power creep, has '''1''' entire Attack and Health more than the Flamewreathed Faceless, but only if you healed at least 10 Health. A trivial task if you're facing a hyper-aggressive aggro deck and have both copies of [[Holy Light]] on hand.
-* [[Hyena Alpha]], bringing in 7/7 worth of beasts across 3 minions. Just make sure you played [[Rat Trap]] earlier.
-* [[Nozdormu the Timeless]], a 4-mana 8/8 looking to laugh in Thrall's face. Just hope that your opponent is unable to make use of the 10 Mana he gives both of you so that you can go face with the sucker.
-* Some more 4-cost minions can also be 7/7 after battlecries, but they are harder to realize:
-** [[Draenei Totemcarver]], gets 7/7 if in the presence of 3 friendly Totems. Never used in [[Even Shaman|Odd Shaman]].
-** [[Phantom Freebooter]], gets 7/7 if equipped a [[Sul'thraze|4/4 weapon]].
-** [[Wicked Skeleton]], gets 7/7 if 6 minions died in the turn played.
-** [[Core Rager]], gets 7/7 if played with no other cards in hand.
-* Some 4-cost minions have [[Triggered effect]]s so they can reach 7/7 stats, like:
-** [[Ethereal Arcanist]], 4/3/3, gains +2/+2 if you control a Secret at the end of turn.
-** [[Grave Shambler]], 4/4/4, but may eventually become a 7/7 if you dare destroying your weapon three times.
-** [[Crowd Favorite]], 4/4/4, gains +1/+1 for each Battlecry card you played.
-** [[Daring Reporter]], 4/3/3, gains +1/+1 for each card your opponent drawed.
-* Some others could be said to be a 4 mana 7/7, like:
-** [[Eternal Servitude]] resurrecting 7/7 minions.
-** [[Molten Reflection]] replicating 7/7 minions.
-** [[Mindgames]] summoning 7/7 minions (e.g., an annoying [[Violet Wurm]] in the [[Arena]]).
-** [[Piloted Shredder]] with a [[Totem Golem]] riding it.
-** [[Lotus Illusionist]] that transformed to [[Grumble, Worldshaker]].
-** [[Bronze Herald]] adds two 4 mana 4/4 dragons, then you play [[Dragon Speaker]] and bam, you got 7/7 [[Bronze Dragon]]s ready to be played.
-** [[EVIL Recruiter]] sacrifices a 1/1 Lackey on turn 4, providing 8/8 worth of stats for a net gain of 7/7.
-* Sometimes we also say a minion is '''4 mana 7/7''' if buffed/[[modify cost|modified cost]] from other cards, like a [[Chillwind Yeti]] getting buffed by an [[Avenge]].
-Alternatively, you may be looking for the boss-only card [[Chromatic Drake (Heroic)]] which was added to [[Razorgore the Untamed]]'s heroic deck in [[Blackrock Mountain|''Blackrock Mountain'']] in order to make it easier for players to defeat. Even moreso with [[Shroomsayer]] in [[Dungeon Run]]. Also see [[Herald of Flame]], a perfect fit for Warrior [[Rumble Run]] decks full of really pricey dragons and [[Golden Candle]] in [[The Dalaran Heist]], when you need the Random Number God to spin the wheel and ruin the enemy's synergy.
+''How many Blizzard employees do you need to fix a lamp? It does not matter, because they cannot balance the ladder.
-See also: [[Lady in White]], who can potentially turn [[Baron Rivendare|other]] [[Oasis Snapjaw|pathetic]] [[Mogu'shan Warden|4-drops]] into 7/7s (or [[Unpowered Steambot|even better]]!). Contrast [[Stone Sentinel]], a 7 mana 4/4 [[Dreampetal Florist|if]] [[Jan'alai, the Dragonhawk|you]] [[Lord Godfrey|play]] [[Spiteful Summoner|it]] raw.
+<!--This page is in reference to a popular meme from around 2016. Please don't add other minions to this page. Please don't link it to other pages (especially in the strategy section) unless they directly reference the meme like F.U.S.E. in the Galakrond's Awakening Dr. Boom fight. As the number of minions grow, the number of large 4 drops will too. Not every big 4 mana minion, or even potentially big 4 mana minion, is a reference to Flamewreathed Faceless or part of the joke. Thank you.-->
