i know 6mana for 2 damage like Stensia Bloodhall it rather meh. true but to get those laste few point of damage would it be worth it in this case? id rather pay 6 mana twice over 2turns then wait 5+turns due to Nephalia Drownyard(hoping here the opponent doesnt have/use things like Elixir of Immortality)
reasong for asking such is i was looking at my cards and came past and remebered wishing i had had the bloodhall instead of the drownyard.

Well you're much more likely to see Witchbane Orb or Pithing Needle out of a sideboard against Nephalia Drownyard than you ever will a Elixir of Immortality, and both still shut down Stensia Bloodhall.
I think the big factor is that for a few of the control decks they haven't racked up any damage once they get their utility lands online, and Nephalia Drownyard will either be fast by that point or it will be safer since you don't have to tap down as much mana.
