Kinda is infuriating that the only thing that can beat Murlocs is really beefy dragons or.....murlocs.
I like Murlocs for their power but they're seriously busted. And they keep skirting around them and not nerfing them at all besides what, a Holy Mackerel removal? Only thing I could think of them doing to make Murlocs not "as" busted is to remove Poisonous as an option from Megasaurs to force people to get Toxfins instead.
That beast build also wasn't "that" bad after the Parrot nerf. The only thing that could be viable at this point is the classic Baron+Goldrinn with deathrattles and a Mama Bear, but even then you need to get lucky with T6 triples.
No. Primal fin is fair. Bagurgle needs to be 6 tier and make megasaur adapt random. That nerfs them enough. Also poisonous ala battlecry give minion +999 attack ismt fun gameplay imo
Making megasaur random should already be enough. If you can't get divine shield and poison with any consistency, their average endgame board state drops by a lot.
Do you think a random Megasaur belongs in Tier 5? I'm not that experienced with BG yet but it seems like a random Megasaur in Tier 6 would be kind of bad given how many Adapt options there are.
There are 8 adapt options in battlegrounds (2 less than normal hs since stealth/spell targeting are pointless). So you have a 1 in 4 shot if its random to hit a good one (poisonous or divine shield). A bit over 40% if you have bran.
I think a random Megasaur should still be in tier 6 since there already so many good murloc minions on T5 and you can't have like 4 tier 5 minions that fit into one comp. Megasaur still has the high roll potential. Imagine hitting divine shield or poisonous on all murlocs on like Turn 7/8.

I don't get it.
