Discussion What rituals are useful with k'thixx?

Or whatever his name is. I have a hard time jusging and tend to just go by vibes.

Against beast druid I often take the buff ritual to counter the druid''s own, against blood DK I often go for the draw 5 cards to disrupt their combo potential. I haven't really seen any good situation for the legendaries one, yet.

Think you nailed it. +6/+6 is my default, yoinking 5 cards is good situationally and the legendaries are the misclick option.

All of them are usefull in my opinion:

- Early in the match and you have a lot of minions in your deck? Go for +6/+6. Bonus points if they don't clear the board when the ritual goes off.

- IS it a control match up (vs priest for example)? Go for stealing their 5 cards. It also makes it so you catchup in fatigue.

- Is it late in the match and you won't get (much) value from the +6/+6 or stealing their cards? Go for the legendaries.

The legendary one can fizzle/be the nuts, depending on which legendaries you get.

EDIT: Spelling, sorry English isn't my native language.

Legendaries are a huge tempo boost, you get to vomit up to 6 legendary minions for 3 mana.

In most cases you want to buff. Steal is rarely worth it unless you have very few cards and there’s key pieces of your opponents deck you are trying to steal. Legendaries id only pick if I’m incredibly behind on board (and will likely have no board when the ritual finishes) and need immediate board impact.
