    very good silencer, a pity the cost is so low. They do have enough cheap spells imo

    Clears away taunts, allowing demon hunter to go EVEN MORE FACE. This will really slot in, even if it's not a control deck, just to pave the way for a big push on the following turn

    4 Mana 7/7

    Oh boy ... this card can be dangerous ! Never underestimate a 0 Mana Card and this could set up lethal most of the time. Just imagine playing this a turn before Druid would play a Corrupted Clown to protect himself because you have a good board for example.

    Very interesting - high potentail to be a staple in almost every Demon Hunter Deck.

    Damn this is a great mass silence if you accept that you've to wait a turn for it to proc (though you might deny your opponent's next move for 0 mana).

    I really like the concept of Sigils, this is absolutely useful. Good for clearing taunts and go face the turn after playing this.

    Decent disruption effect, really like this "Start of next turn" design. And boy am I glad Altruis the Outcast is going away.

    Why does the Demon Hunter class get another Silence card? What is the identity of this class anyways? They have everything; card draw, lifesteal, taunt, rush, charge, weapons, etc.

    By the way, another 0-cost card… really Team 5?!

    The Sigils seem pretty strong so far. This should see play, although usually when you're facing against something you want to silence, you usually want to do it immediately instead of next turn.

    Very interesting and seems much more competitive than the other Sigil. I hope the direct damage at Demon Hunters disposal (weapons etc.) is tuned right, otherwise this seems like a second and third Kayn Sunfury (yeah, you need to set it up, but you know how many damage from hand you have next turn to setup lethal).

    Seems like a super strong sigil for aggro decks, since the silence is relevant for getting through taunts, and the 0-cost is highly valuable for any deck that wants to consistently trigger outcast effects (which is mostly true for aggro DH)

    Why?!? Why did you need to do this? Mass dispell was rotating and buffing was finally going to be a viable playstyle and then this for zero mana. Plus aggro can now plan the "I will kill you next turn move" for free. At least it gives dh opponents the courtesy of letting them know taunting won't say you

    0 cost is pretty good, but I'm worried it might just be too easy to play around.

    This is effectively just signalling that taunt won't save you and you should hold off on buffs and deathrattles (unlike Consume Magic or Kayn Sunfury which has the surprise factor)

    On the other hand, by virtue of being 0-mana you can play this at any point and cripple specific decks really hard (imagine this against Libram Paladin who then has to waste an entire turn not making use of any Librams or buffs).

     

    I think it's a good card on paper, but it'll probably be meta-dependant....and if it's good enough it'll most likely end up being nerfed to 2-mana.

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    Hmm, I'm not sold on this one actually. Like, how many Aggro DH decks hard run Consume Magic or Magehunter? Sure this sets up next turn lethal by preemptively removing taunt, but last I checked Control decks also have this thing called AoE, and you're telling them to use it instead of the Taunt.

    If this is a way to deal with Taunt minions it doesn't seem that good since the taunt would be played mostly by control decks that want to survive, but those decks also have AoE so they can just do that and this becomes kinda a dead card.

    This is for aggro decks .Kayn is gone so this card is the diet version of kayn but you tell your opponet you have lethal.I can see a face weapon demon hunter with soul shards begin good just go face and win.

    Sure, this might be useful for setting up lethal in an aggressive DH deck, but I think it's more versatile than that. Whether it's countering buffs, Deathrattles, or persistent auras, it's a card that will be used proactively, to disrupt your opponent's gameplan for a turn. Even if that disruption doesn't allow you to set up lethal, it's free delay. Of course, if the best decks plop down well-statted Battlecry minions all day, that's a different story.

    A strong tool to go into the arsenal of Demon Hunter.  Cheap cost, could be used to set-up finishing plays.  Will have to be balanced against using a slot in your deck for the card, but sure seems like it could be useful.

    Hard to assess this spell. Since DH is losing the 1 mana silence that cycles itself this might see use if silence is really important. A lot of the time I think the 3 mana rush minion that silences is usually going to be better due to its utility though.

    As a silence effect, it may be too slow. But as disruption against certain cards coming out on curve this is just good, especially since it costs nothing.

    I wouldn't say this is uber levels of good. Its a tech card that will only see play when the meta lines up for it.

    Exactly this. Giving silence to a class like Demon Hunter is the dumbest thing ever.

    The fact that this is more powerful than any Priest silence ever ... infuriating.

    0 mana card for DH. Scary.

    Although you could evade and not play anything silence worthy, it's never good to do that against DH.

    The delay is irrelevant. The DH already knows exactly what they are going to do next turn, and this makes it impossible for you to set up any kind of defense. You'll be dead before you have any way to react.

    How that for fun and interactive?

    This card makes Ancient Watcher and Humongous Razorleaf playable! Just wait for a Demon Hunter to cast this spell, then jam your no-attack minions and voila! Next turn they can attack!

    Ok but seriously, this could be pretty good in the right circumstances, although it can be played around to a certain extent (like dormant minions).

    Hmm delayed silence that you can play around might see a bit bad, but it's actually very good. Cheap spells allow DH to take adventage of Gadgetzan Auctioneer and maybe use some kind of miracle archetype? (Or it can help transition OTK DH into a Gadgetzan Auctioneer package?) Never underestimate 0 cost spells, their almost always extremely strong or have the potential to become OP. OH and silence is very good against Libram Paladin, which seems like it's still going to be a strong deck next expansion. Also it can help deal with Secret paladin, because you can silence the 3/3s from that new legendary.

    RNG is only fun as long as there is a 50/50 chance of getting something really good or trash level of bad. If RNG always results in something good, then it's not fun.

    My first thought was that this is garbage - a silence effect that folks can play around? How many decks really rely heavily on deathrattle or taunt? Aren't most strong minions Battlecry minions? 

    Y'all have won me over, though. To hating it, that is. The prospect of knowing that your opponent will be pushing next turn and not being able to do anything about it except heal, but having no healing... Ugh. At least, I think, that won't happen so often.

    0-mana slow Mass Dispel. You can play it the turn before a charge/weapon OTK to make sure you can push face. I think if you only play it to hurt things like Librams, it won't make the cut. But lethal setups are very valuable

    On board OTKs love this card. Just play this a turn earlier and you're good to go.

    Silence is very good and this card can even be played preemptively.

    You need a lot of planning to make it work with such delay, but it's a way to clear several Taunt/Deathrattle minions at once

    Wow, I did not expect this to be zero mana. I expect we'll see this card played quite often. Good against all those wretched libram paladins. Bad against this new taunt druid archetype I was hoping to explore 😒

    I really like the sigils. I think this is an interesting way to expand the flavor of DH more, and make some neat choices. I do hope we see some more big demon or maybe control style cards, which this could still be. I like this and think it will be an awesome tech card.

    I don't know, I feel like in most cases you would just use Consume Magic to draw a card and silence the minion right away. Very rarely do you want to silence multiple minions and are willing to wait a turn to do it and also aren't able to kill either of them.

    Unless we get some really cool Sigil synergy, this will likely see zero play.

    I doubt this will see play in Wild except in decks that run Gadgetzan Auctioneer. Usually, when you want to silence an enemy minion, you want to silence it immediately, and I doubt that putting a card in your deck to handle the "I'll have lethal next turn if my opponent doesn't play a taunt" situation is going to be better than putting a card in there that helps you get to that point in the first place.

    It's 0 mana so I assume it will see play somewhere, probably in OTK Demon Hunters or perhaps the Deathrattle Demon Hunter

    This like signal "Hey opponent, I plan to lethal you next turn". Can be played in something like Soul DH...

    Oh yeah, setting up for lethal for sure - no matter the wall of taunt or what not - don't count on your board anymore

    I honestly don't anticipate this card being too good. When you want to Silence something, you usually want to do it right away. If you only need to Silence one thing, then just use Consume Magic instead. If you need to go through a wall of Taunts, then just use Kayn Sunfury instead.

    I initially thought this was bad, but after thinking about it, this could be a setup for a lethal blow to your opponent the next turn. Play Sigil of Silence, then gear up all your attack and weapon damage for next turn as any taunt minion will be silenced. Could be dangerous especially since the meta will probably be crawling with deathrattles and minions with powerful ongoing effects.

    These Sigils are interesting. I like the mechanic.

    0 mana aoe silence is strong. Even if you give your opponent a chance to respond first.

    You want to silence a threat immediately. This is simply too slow and way too easy to play arround. For aggro decks on the other hand this can easily set up lethal

    This one seems potentially powerful. It is like doomsayer, but for silence and can’t be stopped. Silence is also pretty good

    The fact that it is often useless/low value condemns it to the "I doubt this would be played much" pile. I might be wrong though, because silence is often run in the meta.

    I have two issues with this. First, silence is best as a reactive tool. The proactive nature of Sigil of Silence makes it so that your opponent doesn't have to play into the silence, the minions on board you want to silence continue to have their effects, and switch their game plan into something more effective for the situation. Second, this feels awful getting it off of Skull of Gul'dan, which is the single DH card that has warped how DH plays since its introduction. If the card doesn't work well with skull, it doesn't see play.

    For glory, honor, and gold!

    A 0 mana silence is great but can you really expect that the opponent in their turn will not manipulate the board or play aroud it? Maybe it's only "great" in some meta and/or against specifc match up

    Feels like it does too little to be worth it. It's 0 Mana though, doesn't interfere with Outcast much. Depends if Taunts become widespread.

    Taunt blocker that your opponent can't do anything about.

    This is perfect for DH (both soul and aggro variants) as they need to hit face. In a way, works functionally like Kayn.

    As a 0-cost card it's preaty good. Silence up to 7 enemy minions is much better than other silence cards.

    Powerful. Hard to set up, and easy for an opponent to play around, but it costs 0 so you can always fit it into any turn. Might be good in aggro as a way to deny your opponent the ability to Taunt you for a turn (as if Kayn wasn't bad enough) or to remove some very annoying Deathrattles or buffs.

    I don't want to cure cancer; I want to turn people into dinosaurs.

    Seems great for setting up a lethal turn. No need to worry about Taunts (and without spending 4 mana for/having to draw Kayn Sunfury).

    I really like this. I don’t know how good it will be yet, because cheap delayed silencing effects are a new thing for this game. But that’s good! Bring on the new things!

    Also, bring on the Demon Hunters that give you something to react to and play around, instead of just going Face every turn.

    I like the sigils, essentially dormant spells. I also like the complexity that this one will require in play, it is almost like having to calculate the value of playing around doomsayer.

    Unfortunately, common sense isn't as common as it should be.

    Could work as a set up before a big turn so that the enemy has no taunts and you can go face but that's pretty niche. I don't think it's worth putting it in any deck unfortunately.

    Seems really strong, and as others have said - you can set up a lethal for the next turn, or at least disrupt your opponent's board if they have some buffs or solid deathrattles in play.

    Let's you set up to go face next turn, I guess, but can be played around so easily that you really need to be way ahead to make it work.

    Everybody's talking about the 0 mana cost, but this is an easy card to play around, since you can see it coming a turn in advance.  That being said, I dislike wasting a turn waiting for the effect to trigger, but the only times it really makes a difference are with buffs and deathrattles, both of which are already weak to silence.
