I really don't understand the hate, must every legendary have a keyword soup to be considered interesting? This is a build-around card worthy of its rarity, watch the reveal video if you lack some deckbuilding inspiration.
I would assume they printed it that way as to not make it an instant win but rather a payoff that allows you to keep tempo while tapping like a madman.
The problem is that there is no reason for it being that fair when so many other decks can snowball way harder for way less effort.
Couldn't they at least add Lifesteal so it has soft taunt?
Somehow I smell an OTK with this guy. Even if he somehow doesn't, getting 1 extra Battlecry trigger is good, but if you can trigger it 2-3 more besides? 5/5 stars
Deck of Chaos could be replaced with The Dark Portal in case it doesn't works (and probably some minions would be changed). I think it's nuts. And I also love the art.
Its your third Mountain Giant. That alone suffices as a review for this card.
Outside of being cheated out its kinda bad honestly, but not too bad. 8/6 for 6 is still alright. Just dont expect to see anyone paying 6 mana to get this down anytime soon.
yes except if you are on coin you tap on 2 tap on 3 have 1 mana remaning to play this guy, which is somewhat of a highroll (you need to draw him in first 9 cards (10th card is coin)) but pretty good
If they were at 2 Mana, I could see the argument for risking the Mana increase for a discount. As is, 1 star, they have a mediocre body, and combo decks aren't going to risk dealing with them.
I don't get why they would print something this pointless and boring. It doesn't have enough health to really slow down or pressure any tempo deck while you're tapping yourself to death.
Damn, I'm usually pretty optimistic but this card is quite boring. Sure it might be moderately powerful, but I honestly think a character like Anetheron deserves better than that card text tbh. Also the orphan on the second line lowkey irritates me.

New Paladin Spell - Rise to the Occasion
This, the 5 mana final rewards seems a bit of a stretch. Maybe we are just too used to the lasts quests where we got the reward instantly.
New Warlock Minion - Anetheron
Kinda Meh ... sure 6 Mana 6/8 is not that bad - i guess this is decent if it gets cheated out early on but on it`s own still Meh ...
If some sort of Handlock becomes a thing in the upcoming meta this surely will find a place in it.
New Rogue Weapon - Counterfeit Blade
Keeping my eye on this one. Don't think it works out with Elwynn Boar, but it could still be a good value weapon.

gonna try it in no deck warlock, good proactive play on 4, wich the deck lacks. Tap on 2, backfire on 3, this on 4!
New Warlock Minion - Shady Bartender
2/5, I'm not sure in standard zoolock has that many cheap demon boards to make this viable and in wild there seem to be way better options.

I posted this meme on Dark Alley Pact, but it fits better on this card I think:
New Paladin Weapon - Lightbringer's Hammer
That Can't Attack Heroes is what kills this card, especially only for +1 attack over Aldrachi Warblades.
New Warlock Minion - Anetheron
We don't know if handlock will be a thing, but if it is, Anetheron will see play.
By the way, is a boring designed card, the other legendary class minions looks fresher.

very bad card
New Legendary Warlock Card Revealed for United in Stormwind by Blizzard & Friends - Anetheron
I mean at 1 mana you can throw this guy down and then the shady bartender for a 10/8 beat stick

so how fast can a warlock get to 10 cards ?
starting second, that's 6 cards (4 cards mulligan, 1 card drawn, the coin)
turn 2 draw 1 that's 7, hero power that's 8 cards
Turn 3, draw that's 9. If you use free admission that's 10, you can drop him on 3
but at 6 health he gets removed to the minions your opponent has been playing on curve...

HANDLOCK IS BACK BABY WOOOOOOH
On coin: Turn 1 Felosophy(5 cards), turn 2 tap (7 cards), turn 3 tap (9 cards), turn 4 Anetheron tap Anetheron
On play: Turn 1 Felosophy (4 cards), turn 2 tap (6 cards), turn 3 Backfire (9 cards), turn 4 Anetheron tap Anetheron

Guys this is not bad at all. Dark Alley Pact and this gives enough support for Handlock in Standard! Take a look at this deck I created:

Why do they hate Warlocks so much?
