  • New Neutral Minion - Traveling Merchant

    Arena card just like Frostwolf Warlord. This is a little easier to get off, and has Tradeable if this isn't the turn you want to play it, but isn't going to cut it for Standard.

  • New Neutral Minion - Deeprun Engineer

    Probably a filler card as there aren't many insane Mech cards. The mana reduction is okay and makes this a 1 mana 1/2 Discover a card and that's value.

  • New Neutral Minion - Stockades Guard

    1 mana 1/3 always have a chance at seeing play. Effect isn't anything crazy, we've seen it before and it wasn't great. 

  • New Neutral Minion - SI:7 Skulker

    This is strong and works in most decks. It guarantees a mana discount and often gets to trade favorably with Stealth. This could see some play.

  • New Neutral Minion - Florist

    Only useful in Druid or Shaman, but it's a really strong effect attached to a Vanilla body. Won't see play, but getting this from a random effect, and as one of the two classes that can use it, will be welcome.

  • Really Annoyed By Reveals

    Considering the site you're posting this on, one would think you know exactly why the reveal season has been so janky, given that it's been plastered all over the front page.

  • Activision Blizzard Employees are Walking Out in Protest on July 28

    Good for them!  I'm genuinely encouraged by this.

  • What's Next for Legends of Runeterra in 2021? Bonus PVE Expansion This Fall, Bandle City is the Final Region

    I like this design it offers plenty of interesting interactions.

    Now while I wouldn't describe any Yordle champions as one of my mains, I did play lot's Veigar back in the day, so that the one I am looking forward to the most. 

  • The Best Deals Anywhere - Card Design Competition Discussion Thread

    Staff

    It took forever, but I finally got a card design that I liked.

    She's got an important letter and it's only for your eyes to read. And then she's gotta go back out to make another delivery.

    Well you've already mentioned bolding Traded, so I won't hold anything against you there. I quite like the design of it, but now that all the cards are out, it does have quite a bit of overlap with Ignite.

    There are a few aspects of the card that I'm not too sure how they'll be received (namely being a Neutral hero card), but I quite like it. I can't help but feel that it's basically a "Warrior card that's painted gray", but then again, the actual set has about 5 or so Neutral cards that I would refer to as "Warlock card that's painted gray".

    To be honest, I'm surprised there wasn't a card that read "All cards in your hand have Tradeable", so this fills that for me quite well. I personally prefer the first art.

    Hordaki
    It's flavorful, but I feel like it's difficult to get any good value of it since it costs 6 mana and requires some trading. I feel like the wording is not perfect either.

    Arkasaur
    I quite like this. I personally prefer the -2 Cost version since it's more flexible as a 1-mana Shadowstep and can still be an effective Sap if you use it on something expensive.

    I quite like Hukster either the name appears to be misspelled (should be "Huckster") and could probably use another word to give it some extra flair. While I do admire the simplicity of Contract Assassin, I do feel like it's unlikely to get a good score and once again, the name could probably be changed to have some extra flair.

    I really like the flavor of Magical Seed although now that all the cards are revealed, I think it has too much overlap with Sow the Soil.

    Bloodshard Satyr is a fine card in a vacuum, but I don't like that it's a dual-class card in a set that doesn't have any. By the time Year of the Phoenix rotates, it'll also (likely) be the only card in Standard that uses Soul Fragments.

    Tipsi Wobblerune seems very weird. I'm not entirely sure how you'd get it to work from a UI perspective.

    FieselFitz
    A fine card, but I don't see very much in terms of Tradeable flavor.

    Cydonianknight
    As someone who really wants a "Duality Priest" archetype to happen now with the existence of spell schools, this card has my approval.

    Lundy
    I like Cloth Merchant. It's a simple but in a charming way that feels very believable. Honestly I'm surprised there wasn't anything like this in the set. I also like Shadoweave Trainer for the same reason, though its use of Tradeable doesn't feel as flavorful. I can't help but feel that Frostweave Trainer is probably meant to cost 1 more of have -1 stat somewhere if the effect is meant to be for enemies since it is otherwise a 2 mana 2/4 with an upside.

    The text is a little bit confusing to read at first. You just have to take multiple readthroughs of it before you comfortably grasp what the card does. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a good way to simplify the wording and keep it doing what you want it to do.

    I do quite like the idea of this "Triple-school Mage" or whatever you would call it, so the general idea gets a thumbs up from me.

  • United in Stormwind Theorycrafting Streams are Live! Twitch Drops Reward 2 Stormwind Card Packs

    Should be late Friday!

  • New Warrior Minion - Cowardly Grunt

    Big Warrior with recruit and Woecleaver...

    But this card looks mediocre for that.

  • New Priest Spell - Shard of the Naaru

    Silence all can be busted, not too mention this gets generated from Wandmaker fairly often, so you probably won't need to run 2 (maybe not even 1) in your deck.

  • New Priest Minion - Psyfiend

    Shadow Priest support. Going to have to race the opponent down with this, but needs healing so you don't die too. The new 4 mana Deal 4 with Lifesteal makes this work well.

  • New Priest Weapon - Shadowcloth Needle

    As Shadow Priest, you're going to be casting Shadow spells anyways. Why not throw in a 2 mana consecration in there too? 

  • New Priest Minion - Voidtouched Attendant

    Good 1 drop, but not sure how much play it will see in Standard. Duels will love this with the " Deal 1 damage to the opponent's face whenever you cast a spell" Hero Power (If it doesn't change for the next Duels season).

  • New Priest Minion - Twilight Deceptor

    Very easy to activate the trigger, cheap, and tutors a card. For Shadow Priest support!

  • New Priest Spell - Void Shard

    Insane for the Shadow Priest deck as it needed more healing. This is a 4-8 health swing for each one when shot at the face.

  • New Hunter Spell - Defend the Dwarven District

    This is nuts on so many levels.

    Its fun, its good, it promotes slower hunters

    And best of all in no way possible this ever fits in face hunter.

    5/5 stars. Just watched the stream and this is good, believe me.

  • New Rogue Minion - SI:7 Informant

    This has the potential to get huge, and with most of the SI:7 cards being above average, this could be great.

  • New Rogue Spell - SI:7 Extortion

    Should be noted that, unlike Backstab, this can also be used on the enemy Hero at the start of a game if you have no better plays.

  • We're Getting 4 New Bartenders in Hearthstone's Battlegrounds Including Ve'nari, Fizzy, and Dragonspeaker Bob

  • New Rogue Minion - SI:7 Assassin

    Can be a really cheap removal, but requires you to be in the late game after you've played several other SI:7 cards. I'm not a huge fan of the Rogue Questline, but if it turns out to be good, this will 100% be played.

  • New Paladin Minion - Catacomb Guard

    If handbuff works, this will just further Paladin's annoying heal cards. Otherwise,  this is just small pings and heals. Playing this for tempo will not feel good.

  • New Paladin Spell - Noble Mount
