Alright I don't understand why make this card for DH? Are they pushing DH in a spell direction?

Seems like they're just throwing any random archetypes at DH. Can we get an actual Control and Deathrattle DH archetype instead of blizzard changing the direction every expansion.

Demon Hunter already had Kor'vas Bloodthorn and that card sucked...Now they're giving demon hunter another 2 chip damage spam minion.

Also immune shouldn't be a theme they keep pushing all these weird mechanics in demon hunter instead of just using outcast.

Stop pushing immune and charge cards in DH every expansion. They're making this class a combination of everything.

Other than that this is a cool card if there is a spell demon hunter which is pretty boring with all the other spell decks and spell face hunter...Zzz 

Looked 100% like a shrimp zoomed out. That would have been awesome.

Returning Keyword: Magnetic

Zilliax , Reno Jackson , Finja, the Flying Star will be in the coreset

Seeing as they are bringing Mech Mage back they are most likely giving it support in the coreset. Magnetic would be a good way to boost it's strength. 

Blizzard has also said they want to go in a more board based direction this year.

One of the best board based cards ever is The Lich King So I'd bet he will be in the coreset as well.

Rogue secrets are rotating I could see Rogue getting a couple secrets back in the coreset and of course some pirate synergy

General Coreset Direction:

Hunter: Deathrattle package

Warlock: Zoo Package

Mage: Mech Package

Shaman: Token Package

Priest: Spell Package

Paladin: Mech

Druid: Beast

Warrior: Midrange/Control

DH: idk lol

Neutral: Mechs, Murlocs, Nagas, Elementals, a bit of everything

Wow I really like this card. The 2 attack on an immune minion seems pretty reasonable and fairly balanced. DH enjoys slinging spells as much as Mage these days. I see this legendary as the bane to all aggro/token decks

If both of you want to submit the party you used for a specific task and add a couple tips in the guide, I may as well feature you in the guide!

You're assuming it's going to be an aggro deck primarily because of the history of warrior pirate decks, which were always the more notorious. Rogue versions were usually more nuanced due to the nature of the class, and the Sunken City version really doesn't look to be that aggressive at all. If you look at the pirates we currently know rogue will have available, we have:

• A defensively statted draw engine in Cutlass Courier.
• Edwin, Defias Kingpin who is another draw engine and only really does anything crazy in the late game.
• A removal tool in Bootstrap Sunkeneer.
• And a slow, board presence generator in Azsharan Vessel that probably needs you to spend time dredging, e.g. with Tuskarrrr Trawler.
• I assume Swashburglar will stick around in the Core set as support for both pirates and the AV burgle stuff. He's cheap, but not at all aggressive.

Other than Mr. Smite, even the neutral pirates aren't that aggressive as they mostly need you to have a weapon, which typically slows rogue down more than it does in warrior. 

The situation can change if more pirates are revealed, but for now it looks unlikely pirate rogue will be an aggro deck. More likely it's a midrange deck utilising rogue's natural tempo, and reaching turn 8 with those decks is perfectly reasonable.

The best thing about this card is that it allows you to play spells while having this card essentially dealing with the board. Meaning you'll hit face more often, and taunts are less effective against you.

Too bad that its effect seemingly implies that it'll also hit your minions. Meaning its only ever going to be in control or combo.

One last thing it can do; it allows you to refresh your kurtrus hp with spells. But the 3 mana investment hurts it somewhat, and you still need your opponent to have a board of course.

Edit: If it can hit face, this card is just completely OP. In quest dhunter, you can just draw your entire deck and destroy them from 30 straight up. No taunts can stop this thing. I guess an overcompensation for the loss of Immolation Aura and Il'gynoth? Either way, this card is nearly an auto include into most decks, if not all.

It says enemy not enemy minions so yes to face. Thankfully Acrobatics and Double Jump are rotating out so questline DH might not be too oppressive later as long as they don't print another broken draw spell.

Warrior or DH?

Mistake happens. No worries here :) Just have to adjust my wording from half-shit to OP. Guess being able to hit face really elevates anything in hearthstone.

Nope again. :)

Wait what? That's insane

Another thing, it also says warrior not demon hunter.

Very strong as long as there's cheap spells for Demon Hunter. Could easily see this in Quest Demon Hunter (assuming that deck sticks around in some capacity)

Nirast messed up, it actually says enemies not minions

This sounds kinda nuts if I'm being honest. Immune while attacking is actually insanely powerful and hasn't been used that much so far.

I mean as long as you have spells this is potentially a full clear on every board. Could be even crazier if there's some decent way to give it an attack buff. At the very least it's limited to minions only

The wording seems to imply that it can hit your own minions.

In that respect this card is niche. Very niche in fact. Because it'll only ever function in control or combo, such as quest and fel dhunter, where spells are aplenty and this card cant backfire. The last thing you want is this card locking you out of spells until it dies or your opponent plays a lower health minion.

Perhaps this is an indication that we wont be getting anymore AoE cards for dhunter, because the best one, Immolation Aura, is actually rotating, leaving them fairly helpless against token decks. And this card is supposed to be the answer to that.

Edit: Well with further revelations, this card turned from niche to OP. Assuming that there's no more corrections, this can also strike your opponent's face.

Its scary to see how much damage can be done with hero kurtrus and this card on board, because it also refreshes your hp. You might just destroy them from 30 with a few spells.

This seems good alongside Multi-Strike. Also it's exactly the same as Ace Hunter Kreen, but Lady S'theno allows you to attack enemy minions for free after casting spells. Let's be honest, Ace Hunter Kreen was one of the worse legendaries in Scholomance, which was a VERY powerfull expansion, so seeing him powercrept isn't really that surprising. I'm glad they decided to make this powercrept reprint more board based though, and DH actually has to cast a bunch of spells in order to clear the board. So it still takes a lot of work in order to remove stuff. I really like this card, just because it actually takes a bunch of recources in order to take full advantage of Lady S'thenos effect. 

In which decks does this slot into though? I'm not sure. I think that maybe Fel DH might slot this into their deck, or experiment with it. Also maybe there is some more support in this set, which has not been shown yet. After all, there still are 6 DH cards unrevealed. So maybe it has some really strong support that we haven't seen yet...

I'm gonna get tilted

I'm guessing Rogue will start getting a control or midrange package
