Without rush this definetely would have been to costly, but this version seems decent as a 5 mana "X/3 Battlecry: destroy a minion". Potentially removing a threat and building up one your own.
The definition of slow. Not only do you have to draw this multiple times, spend a decent bit of mana to upgrade it, you also have to spend 6 mana (almost your whole turn) to trigger his battlecry.
Warrior is going the explosive route with really varied effectivity. I think this card is not going to be a big meta player, but might get into one deck or two just to "Blow something up"
Boombots are fun, but are getting quiet weak on this age
Awesome flavor, but surprisingly boring gameplay wise. Not weak mind you, just boring. I would be very surprised this one doesn't see at least some decent play.
What a great callback to one of the coolest pve treasures. I also think that he's going to be a mage stable going forward, just because of how much value he can generate over time, even if the AI is not always going to cast the optimal spell.
Basically what Suchti beat me by a minute to say. He is fun and Weak. Having a board full of King Krush or Rag though is a really beautifull sight though.
Zilliax will most certainly keep the modules, since they are not considered buffs. As for boom himself he certainly doesn't look bad, but also not particulary good either. I don't belive that he will be good enough of a finisher to make the whole thing work.
This is amazing! I am really happy about the "No face damage" part, but it does not stop it from getting some stupid OTKs going. It would be great even without a mini.
This expansion is shaping to be one of my favourites.
Also you could play this in wild with some Highlander cards for some sweet payoffs like alextrazza. But hey, it is probably too slow for something like that.
It seems way too expensive and anti synergystic with everything shaman is doing right now... I hope it gets some more love in the miniset though. I love the flavour of it.
Decent threat on its own thanks to its stickiness and guarenteed damage, though quite random, damage. Also works great with the new 3 mana warrior spell.
The fact that these are copies and it works with Nemsy, really makes me re-evaluate this card. I thoght you would just use the card straight from your deck, causing some antisynergy.
Now it is looking pretty good with doomguard and the Chess Queen
This card will be fun to play around with. Funny enough I think it would be better at 5 health. I can't really decide how good it is without playing it. I hope I get the signature version of it.
New Neutral Minion - Factory Assemblybot
This will really be played in warrior. This is sth Dr. Boom want to get you back.
New Neutral Minion - Zilliax Deluxe 3000
Almost as Perfect as the last one, but much more Precise. I really hope this is the free tavern pass legendary. The possibilities are quite a lot.
New Neutral Minion - Origami Frog
Without rush this definetely would have been to costly, but this version seems decent as a 5 mana "X/3 Battlecry: destroy a minion". Potentially removing a threat and building up one your own.
New Death Knight Spell - Lesser Spinel Spellstone
This can work well with the latest expansion legendary wich generates corpses. it is a free level up there.
New Neutral Minion - Corridor Sleeper
I personally do not find this card that good, but I hate what happened here with the preorders.
The flavour is amazing though. It being a beast might make it have some value in the future.
Edit: Seems like this got a signature version in the reward track. Nice card to reroll later if you preorder or win the giveaway
New Shaman Spell - Incredible Value
Incredible Value! 4 7/7? That thing will be broken!
Now being serious, this spell can be Shudderblocked form Hagatha... Just think of that possibility. This will be fun
New Neutral Minion - Wind-Up Musician
The definition of slow. Not only do you have to draw this multiple times, spend a decent bit of mana to upgrade it, you also have to spend 6 mana (almost your whole turn) to trigger his battlecry.
New Warrior Minion - Fireworker

New Death Knight Hero - The Headless Horseman
Awesome flavor, but surprisingly boring gameplay wise. Not weak mind you, just boring. I would be very surprised this one doesn't see at least some decent play.
New Death Knight Minion - Amateur Puppeteer
I feel this might be a nerf candidate. Mostly because of the mini.
New Neutral Minion - Card Grader
I feel this a great neutral tool that most classes will like to use. Stats are not THAT bad and tracking, while not the best, does not have a body.
New Mage Minion - Puzzlemaster Khadgar
What a great callback to one of the coolest pve treasures. I also think that he's going to be a mage stable going forward, just because of how much value he can generate over time, even if the AI is not always going to cast the optimal spell.
New Neutral Minion - Colifero the Artist
Basically what Suchti beat me by a minute to say. He is fun and Weak. Having a board full of King Krush or Rag though is a really beautifull sight though.
New Warrior Minion - Inventor Boom
Zilliax will most certainly keep the modules, since they are not considered buffs. As for boom himself he certainly doesn't look bad, but also not particulary good either. I don't belive that he will be good enough of a finisher to make the whole thing work.
New Shaman Minion - Sand Art Elemental
This is the thing that will OTK you from Shudderblock, just give it time. I see 12 damage just on this card alone. Lets not equip a weapon...
New Shaman Minion - Shudderblock
This is amazing! I am really happy about the "No face damage" part, but it does not stop it from getting some stupid OTKs going. It would be great even without a mini.
This expansion is shaping to be one of my favourites.
Also you could play this in wild with some Highlander cards for some sweet payoffs like alextrazza. But hey, it is probably too slow for something like that.
New Neutral Minion - Colifero the Artist
By now I think he has proven 2 things by now:
I don't think that the new expansion is going to change much about it. The flavor is awesome though.
New Neutral Minion - Card Grader
Tracking, but neutral and on a stick. I don't have much hope for this, considering that Tracking hasn't been played in quite a while.
New Shaman Minion - Shining Sentinel
Really sticky guy. It wants to be buffed
New Death Knight Minion - Amateur Puppeteer
Hey look it's my beloved Mistress of Mixtures. Glad to see that she found a new profession.
New Shaman Spell - Once Upon a Time...
It seems way too expensive and anti synergystic with everything shaman is doing right now... I hope it gets some more love in the miniset though. I love the flavour of it.
New Warrior Minion - Fireworker
Decent threat on its own thanks to its stickiness and guarenteed damage, though quite random, damage. Also works great with the new 3 mana warrior spell.
New Warlock Spell - Crane Game
The fact that these are copies and it works with Nemsy, really makes me re-evaluate this card. I thoght you would just use the card straight from your deck, causing some antisynergy.
Now it is looking pretty good with doomguard and the Chess Queen
New Warlock Minion - Game Master Nemsy
This card will be fun to play around with. Funny enough I think it would be better at 5 health. I can't really decide how good it is without playing it. I hope I get the signature version of it.
New Warlock Minion - Malefic Rook
This is not working in standar at all. But did we need more stuff for Questline Warlock in wild? Definitelly not...
