BGs: Akazamzarak animations too slow

General Discussion

TLDR: Please make secret triggering animations faster (much faster).

I played Akazamzarak with the new buddy.
and I had this board (see image url below, remove the space after the https)
I had 2 macaus (1 with reborn), buddy (golden), 2 poison murlocs, baron and 1 golden acolyte of cthun.

So question to Blizzard: Did you test this hero and the buddy? I mean really test it. What do you expect when you give players a buddy with “Deathrattle”? Is it is a big surprise that players will use Macaus and Baron to maximize the effect?

But because of secret animations, and having too many secrets. Combat too very very very long time. In the last 5 turns in that game, I had literally zero shop time (while my opponents would have 5-6 minutes shop time due to my combat being very long).

The hero and the buddy have very good potential (with right board setup) and in that game I did beat very strong boards before eventually losing first place to a dragon build but having Zero shop time for 5 turns is very bad. I could have won if I had some shop time.

Unfortunately I don’t have a video to show the problem.

The stuff has not been tested at all I guess. How else can you explain Illidan+Tarecgosa interation…

I legit had a match against him take 7 minutes , this hero is retarded it is basically impossible to beat this build , with a triple khadgar

illidan + tarecgosa is one of the lesser evils now. With the hero with the power wich can make a minion golden once a game its even more impressive. The buddy wich makes one gold for this round makes tarecgosa gold permanently as he keeps that as well. Same with the tavish stormpike buddy. it can do some insane stats boosting to taregosa

I am just posting this here in the hopes Battlegrounds devs see this. Please remove the penalty of playing against the slow animation triggers of this hero. All well and good as he is but to beat him and then lose because next turn timer was 0 due to the time it too for the secret trigger animations to trigger is garbage. Being robbed by of a turn due to this poor design in a time critical game mode sucks. Positive this won’t be seen by a dev. FYI talking about akazamzarak
