    3 mana 5/4 that follows a good curve for Secret Hunter. Really really good card that might make Secret Hunter viable.

    What a weird card to put into HUnter of all things, but it's certainly decent. With stuff like Snake Trap or Pack Tactics this is a guaranteed 3-mana 5/4 with stealth. That's gotta count for something.

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    3 mana 5/4 with stealth is amazing, and it can make a BIG impact if you play this on turn 3. (right after a secret on turn 2) Ram Tamer seems very solid and if the other secret support cards are anywhere this good, then i imagine secret hunter making a comeback for sure!

     

    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.

    Arena: Draftable, but is going to be mediocre at best if you miss out on secrets.

    Wild: Surely there is more to come, but Ram Tamer alone is enough to make sure people will experiment with Secret Hunter again and I can see it being a meta contender.

    Standard: We will have to wait and see what else is going to be revealed, but this is no doubt a great step in the right direction to make Secret Hunter viable. Dun Baldar Bunker is suddenly looking a whole lot better.

    Arena > Wild > Standard

    Its not bad, but its not good neither. The fact is that you'll have to have secret on 2, and then this card will only act on turn 4. What's the essential difference in just playing Imprisoned Felmaw, that at very least guarantees an attack, and doesn't come with conditions.

    Still, if you're playing secrets, this card will be in it. Its just a decent card, but unamazing, and unlikely to ever be the real reason for running secrets in your deck.

    I foresee a secret Hunter in the future. A 5/4 stealth is just nice.

    3 for a 5/4 Stealth is pretty strong.  Given that it requires you to play more Secrets, as long as we see other playable Secrets this is definitely a great card especially with Rinling's Rifle poking around

    This is a worse Petting Zoo, and that already doesn't seem play. Also has anti-synergy with Dun Baldar Bunker because of the clunky curve.

    The fail state here is fine, and if you can play it on curve and turn it into a 5/4 it's incredible, but to be a staple it would need to have a more meaningful impact in the midgame.

    Another Secret payoff for Hunter. Here's the cool secret about Secret Hunter: it can make great use of Multicaster thanks to Explosive Trap, Freezing Trap, and Arcane Shot to go along with the Secret drawing spell. The question is: what are you drawing into? (Also, NEW HUNTER SECRET HYPE DON"T LET ME DOWN)

    So we've got Dun Baldar Bunker, which makes this minion much more consistent. If secret hunter does well next expansion, this minion will definitely be in the deck.

    I agree that it isn't bad, but it takes up the same role as Felmaw, which as you stated already attacks for free on it's own when it awakens.  And it has the downside of being a slower felmaw that can potentially be interacted with (aoes, non-targeted minion manipulation (like devolving missiles, etc)).  Where as the dormant version can't be interacted with at all

    Paired with Ice Trap it's being protected from being removed right away. And if you are playing this, you should also be playing Freezing Trap so might get at least one attack when stars allign.

    Nice secret synergy. A stealthed 5/4 is nothing to sneer at and will make for quite an annoying minion. I guess the hard part will be making sure a secret sticks from turn 2. You'll be giving up board initiative to play that secret. That will give your opponent more opportunity to trigger it and negate the buff advantage.

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

    Very powerful if played on curve with a secret the last turn

    Solid curve after a Secret in theory, but I'm not sure if Face Hunter wants to run secrets just to get a better than average minion.

    Insane Secret payoff. Almost feels like it should be a Rogue card though with the Stealth and Secret synergy.

    More support for Secret Hunter. I am starting to believe that Secret Hunter will be viable in this new expansion.

    Seems like a pretty strong card, specially since Rinling's Rifle is a thing. The Stealth part seems rather weird, though.
