Just FYI -- you say,

Just so you know, we're yet to see any of the aforementioned Covenant Spells.

I think you're mistaken. Primordial Wave is the Necrolord Shaman ability, and they've already revealed Baroness Vashj (necrolord shaman) and Primordial Wave (her covenant spell).

This is so awesome. The mindgames and the possibilities are great. I will play this til it rotates.

You have this wrong. My edits are in red. 

• Regarding Murloc Holmes, if your opponent has only 2 cards in their hand/deck, you'll need to solve 2 clues instead of 3.
  • "You still have to get all available clues correct to get the cards, but in that case it would just be 1 or 2 clues rather than 3."

I think it should be:

• Regarding Murloc Holmes, if your opponent has no cards in their hand/deck, you'll need to solve 2 or 1 clues instead of 3.You do not solve a "hand" clue  if there are no cards in opponents hand and no "deck" clue if opponents deck is empty.
  • "You still have to get all available clues correct to get the cards, but in that case it would just be 1 or 2 clues rather than 3."

I hope this video helps explain, how this card works:

What do you predict will be the most problematic card out of the “Prime Suspects”? 

Rogue suspect is spicy

That's what I like to hear, especially after she counted the rogue suspect as one of her favourites, and doubly so as I think she has previously said rogue is usually her least favourite class (I hope I remember that right, don't quote me on it). So whatever the rogue suspect is doing, it should be interesting.

I assume it will be Draka, so maybe so serious stealth shenanigans if she applies the skills we saw in the Maldraxxus cinematic, or maybe a shadow spell school theme since they bothered to give it to a door? Given how hard it is to identify a DH suspect, I suppose rogue could also get the broker Xymox if they wanted to go down a burgle/shopping route instead. Dammit DH, if your class aesthetic was broader than "glowing, angry elf with glaives," we wouldn't be so stumped whenever that's not an option :P

We always aim to make a new card back article within the first days of a month (plus what else to expect), so that gets its time in the spotlight. And we document them ahead of time here (in the navigation menu at the top of the page, you can see "Card Backs" both under "Cards" and "Guides"). Looking at the rest down the line could be a worthy consideration, even though it might not always be simple to tell with the achievements. 

You can also always filter for new skins by the patch here ("Hero Skins" under the "Cards" on the navigation menu), but it's probably not common knowledge. 

• Unfortunately, we won't receive a Castle Nathria rap song from Cora.
  • Ben Brode stands undefeated.

Damn lol.

That brode rap and what people did to that rap was really something.

Reporting someone doesn't necessarily mean banning someone.

I think Tamsin Roame is meant to synergyze with Curse of Agony for some lethality in the early matches.

Hopefully we won't have to wait too long to find out

I wonder how legendary location cards will look with the dragon on top.

To be fair it shouldn't take long for you to aquire a full collection if you play regularly and therefore i think it won't be necessary to sync with the website.

Well this week i have only weak ideas. "Random" is something i always try to avoid on my cards and i feel it's kinda limited in scope. Majority of the cards will be "deal damage randomly" or "generate random cards (most likely spells)" i bet. Anyway, this is what i managed to come up with:

Cascade is simple in concept but not sure how to make it less wordy. I followed the text format of Rolling Fireball.

Feedback:

Thank you very much for the reply :)

have a great day!

Alright, the mini-set has been fully implemented!
Some of the cards I posted time ago have been changed (kudos to Aflag from the chs discord, really helped me with the changes)

If nothing else has to be changed, I think this is finito, took a while to finish this but it was well worth it, I think...

Yeah, I think this was worth it.

EDIT: Aaaand I just realized I forgot some schools for a few of them, man.

oops, I did'nt see that the tamsin isn't the good one, you meant the hero one?

I can't see how anybody would think Team 5 would create an entire new card type, then only use it for one expansion. Keywords, sure. I think every expansion adds a keyword or two that is never seen again afterwards.

Fairly sure a 2 mana 4/5 taunt is good. Even if you need to wait until turn 4 probably for enough minions to die to upgrade it.

Wait, does this mean you can now do things on your opponent's turn, or will it make you guess out of three cards when your turn starts? I'd imagine in many cases the best choice will be obvious, so this is probably not good.

Temporary meaning you have to play it that turn? Meh, probably still fine. I believe Rogue is known for cheap spells.

Evolve and Devolve in one card for the combined mana cost of both. Main problem I see is that there probably aren't a ton of cases where both are useful at the same time.

Regis said it best.  They are more like alternative hero powers that can be used x amount of times.  I remember in one of the developer discussions someone asked if they would ever consider replacing hero powers with a spell that was cast during the game.  I think it was Iskar who responded that they thought about it but didn't think it would be fun if mage could keep casting Devolving Missiles every turn.  Well it looks like they may have found their workaround.

I really hope they make a card that allows players to swap the basic hero power effect with a location effect for the rest of the game.   For example,  Warrior could tap into armor 3 times but use the Cruel Taskmaster -1 effect for the rest of the game.  That could lead to a bunch of different ways to play your deck.  The shaman one is also in the game already via [Hearthstone Card (Deathseeker Thrall) Not Found]'s hero power in wild.

Yeah, and wassup with that useless Reno Jackson? That wastoid doesn't even change your starting health. Why would anyone want *that* in your deck?

Damn, this is just insane. Only decks I could imagine not wanting this are combo decks. And it would be a bad top deck, but 39 cards and 40 health for your hero can't not be good in almost all situations.

I'm going to guess that you have to get all three clues right to get any cards, that may not be helpful to you. Pass. Maybe if it stole the cards.
