My god, her spot is awkward. Doesn't advance Questlock that well, the AoE counteracts Zoolock's ability to get on the board... and I kinda like it. Yes, it's a Duskbreaker Battlecry + Nourish draw which is the components for a broken card when on 6 mana and yet, since those effects are such polar opposites, they work out in balancing the card (for today's standards at least).

Nothing, just I think reveal season should be met (usually) with an air of excitement. It's kind of a downer to have people crapping on cards during the theorycrafting phase of an expansion.
Clearly my comments are more important than I ever gave it credit for. Because usually if someone disagrees with my opinion, they'd just dump downvotes on me. But to deserve a critique on my critique - that's something else.
I mean, I think you're reading too much into this. The point of sites like OOC is to create a community that discusses things and has fun with whatever the focus of that community is. I like to think that here, as opposed to reddit, if people are "just dumping downvotes" they are in the wrong community. There are times I may not agree with people, doesn't mean I hate that person, just that I don't agree with their particular opinion at that time. As such when I feel particularly strong about something I try to verbalize it, as opposed to internalizing it. (Unless it's going to create flamebait, or escalate out of control, or is a controversial subject matter.)
Look, its just my opinion. And Im fairly sure Im not important enough to sway even 1% of the population of this website. Sometimes, someone grants me the pleasure of having an argument on the subject matter, which I fully appreciate. But for those who are aggravated by my written words, they may scroll past it fairly easily - or grant me a downvote, whatever tugs their boat.
Besides, Ive been in OoC for some time. It should be fairly obvious what to expect from my posts. Sometimes I try to crack a few jokes, but I dont think anyone expects sunshine and flowers from me.
Eh I don't keep track of people's personality types that closely beyond my close friends. Don't take that as dismissive, but I don't really care whether you are stormclouds and brooding, or sunshine and flowers. The point of discussions shouldn't necessarily be "to sway" someone but to just discuss something for the sake of discussing it. I'd rather people take the time formulate specific strong opinions on things occasionally, then post all the time (aka the tiktok/instagram method) in the hopes that by just spamming/posting all the time they "make a presence" and become liked. (for the same reason that I detest Nifty in the Runeterra part of the OOC forums because he spams the boards every day with a new thread in an obnoxious "I know better than you" tone.)
Thaliyah Malphite midrange where you duplicate rock bears (old deck)
And Zigs bandle city aggro where it's not even a landmark deck?
The meme stuff you guys come up with is so cute please tell me more about your glorious revolution decks.
Honestly, the deck works amazing if you arent.bad only gets hard countered by darkness.
Again you're presenting board states that force trades, and that equals slays.
Nasus comes down on 6 as a 8/8 or 9/9 usually which let's you hard counter gangplank plays.
So let's go over the decks to beat, basically anything that comes out swinging early and transitions to a late game.
So thats only all of the best decks. Gangplan Sejuani, every non darkness bandle deck, every Zed Poppy deck, every burn deck, every Jayce deck, like everything Cycles these days so thats easy slays.
Like dont get me wrong I'm a great player who challenges himself with off meta decks he builds himself, but I also really understand counter brewing.

An interesting way to trigger Deathrattles, which could make it worth it to run Snowfall Graveyard since there's less waiting for the Deathrattle to trigger. Counterfeit Blade and Sketchy Information...maybe there's a deck here. We just need to figure out what Deathrattles work best.
This seems a bit niche to me. Sure there are a few legendary minions you need to kill ASAP, but most of them are battlecries and then leave a pile of stats on the board. Maybe a class that struggles with hard removal would like this.
Demon Hunter has a variety of cheap ways to increase its Attack, so it shouldn't be too difficult to trigger the Honor Kill. This would likely only see play in aggro DH lists since it rewards you for controlling the board by dealing damage to your opponent. A little bit clunky to make work, but I think it's worth a try because a 1/3 weapon for 1 is a good worst-case scenario (and you can always just ignore the effect and punch your opponent directly in the face).
I like the effect. An interesting way to do a AoE. Effectively, it turns every minion into a potential threat to wipe an aggressive opponent's board and become too big to handle. Really neat in combination with a Taunt minion. Good tool for Control Priest, if that becomes a thing again.
A decent Rush body for Buff Paladin. Could see play solely because most Paladin decks run Alliance Bannerman, Conviction (Rank 1), and Hand of A'dal and it already synergizes just with that small package. Definitely a fun thing to do with Handbuff and the Bridge.
I am at level 278 now. My play time is mostly spent on completing Mercenaries which was quite unexpected. Since I have no aspiration of playing PvP at all, I am almost done with this F2P game mode. I have all the mercenaries (70% maxed out) and nearly all its achievements are finished.
Which side did you choose? Me: FOR THE HORDE!!
@Alleria: The play a friend quest has not been sighted yet over here. As a result, I have abandoned my F2P accounts since the launch of Stormwind.
Nice flavorful effect, almost reminds me of Voidfiend from duels. I'd think this card would be good in a control/Inner Fire combo priest. Shadow priest is mainly aggro, so doubt this spell will find a home there
An 8/8 rush windfury for 5 mana can't possibly not be good. Sure you have to be half dead, but I could see this reversing a few games. And if they can't kill it, that's might be 16 damage to the opponent's face next turn.
might be played next standard rotation but right now there's not many weapon buff effects that are used in DH right now. It would be good to combo with Chaos Strike to kill a 3 health minion but other than that it won't make the cut
Pretty good card considering it has stealth so you're almost guaranteed to get the deathrattle effect. Right now there's no real insane deathrattle effects but I'm sure we'll get more revealed in this expansion.

Sounds cute but maybe a tad impractical?. I guess it's a good way to do something with eggs?
I just don't see this happening.
New Warlock Spell - Tamsin's Phylactery
Baron Rivendare -> upgraded Wicked Shipment -> Tamsin's Phylactery selecting Kobold Sandtrooper's Deathrattle -> Rain of Fire.
I can already hear the "Alright deck intro time".
New Warlock Hero - Dreadlich Tamsin
My god, her spot is awkward. Doesn't advance Questlock that well, the AoE counteracts Zoolock's ability to get on the board... and I kinda like it.

Might be decent in big demon DH. 3/8 taunt for 4 seems pretty good.

Defile for everyone. Yippee!

An 8/8 rush windfury for 5 mana can't possibly not be good. Sure you have to be half dead, but I could see this reversing a few games. And if they can't kill it, that's might be 16 damage to the opponent's face next turn.
