Absolutely NUTS. This card is so good. The thing about deathrattles is that they have powerfull effects.... BUT your minion has to die first. Call of the Grave can basicly give a deathrattle as a battlecry.
I know it's not Warcraft canon, so I wasn't being super serious. But still, maybe dragging in someone 20 years gone is a bit awkward when the year is trying to mirror the early days of WoW at least reasonably closely.
That said, I would have been behind it if they were just keen to represent the characters in the statues outside Stormwind. They chose to use the Rat King instead of Alleria though for hunter, so that doesn't seem to be the case.
You might as well just rub that 'tradeable' keyword out of sight because what fool will ever trade this for a card when its literally the one thing shaman has been screaming for since Whispers of the old gods.
Basically this allows you to play whatever bs overload card you have and then proceed to deal damage based on that while completely negating the overload effect. So Perpetual Flame has just ascended to god tiers level in standard because of this one card.
Can even get this off wandmaker, because why not?
Maybe Im reading this wrong, or have the wrong idea on how this actually works. Someone give me a slap because either this is a wording fk up, or I need to get my eye lens fixed.
Its like a rush card, but a bit worse? I have no idea what you would do with this card. It could probably be good in a Big Warrior decklist if it gets more support. Just like Kurtrus Ashfallen, it just doesn’t do enough to see conventional play
Nice to finally see this Warcraft legend in Hearthstone. Seems like a good card for control warrior, albeit a bit slow. Not sure if rush warrior wants it since at that point in the game you usually want to go face, but the 7 mana slot is rather dry so it might slot in.
Hmm, I guess it fits that Blizz would mess up the time they advertise a card showing a character who should have died long before the events of the expansion. Maintaining a consistent timeline never was Team 5's strong suit.

Well, if this is the card we're getting, then its only decent. Not too bad a card, but far from broken levels for a 7 drop.
Yes, its likely to be a 10/10 that destroys something from your opponent most of the time. But the fact that you can neither control this and it only attacks at the end of the turn means its even less useful than a conventional rush minion which at very least will attack as you wish the same turn its played.
Best case scenario is that your opponent has only 1 or 2 minions on board so this is legitimately a 10/10 rush minion and then if your opponent cant clear it this can attack both face and another minion to snowball. But more likely it'll just kill something you don't care about and then proceed to get its arse handed to it the following turn.
Interesting card, will probably fit in some token deck with The Rat King. of course we will need to see if it gets any more support. Worst case scenario maybe FACE Hunter uses it as a reload? Meh.
In wild it fits perfectly into Unseal the Vault hunter, so at least it has a place there.
Seems kinda. decent? On first glance it might seem bad, but if you thing about all the stats you get it gets way better.
Kodo Mount + minion can count as single target removal, which is something druid is often not that good at.
I think Kodo Mount will see play in standard, probably in either Celestial Druid in order to stay alive before/after celestial, and maybe primordial druid will also use it.
In wild i dont see it getting any play. Token druid wont use it, and i dont think OTK druid decks will ever use it.
If it were possible to give 6 stars out of 5, this card will be very close to it.
Basically, it draws 3 cards while likely giving you some defensive options. Downsides are of course, that it can whiff if you draw all those cards needed and the paltry fact that its an 8 drop. But let's be honest, even if its only an 8 mana 7/7 taunt that draws 3 I'd put it in all my decks that's not straight up aggro.
Expect to see this card in the next expansion - very often.
New Hunter Minion - The Rat King
Doesn’t go face, so probably won’t see any play outside of fun decks like Quest Hunter
New Priest Spell - Call of the Grave
Absolutely NUTS. This card is so good. The thing about deathrattles is that they have powerfull effects.... BUT your minion has to die first. Call of the Grave can basicly give a deathrattle as a battlecry.
Sure the pool with deathrattles might have some lowrolls, but even then the highrolls are just very strong. Think about cards like Plagued Protodrake, Claw Machine, Lightshower Elemental and Taelan Fordring.
Also in wild you can also get cards like Obsidian Statue and Convincing Infiltrator.
Call of the Grave seems solid, and will probably see play. Worst case scenario it gets generated a million or more times.
New Card Revealed for United in Stormwind by GouZei - Varian, King of Stormwind
Could see play in a Corrupt variant of the Priest quest deck. I don’t know what Divine Shields or Rush cards Warlock would want to run though
New Shaman Spell - Overdraft
Damage (that can go face) + Unlock + Tradeable?
I see very few reasons to not include this card in any deck.

Maybe this hints at a overload questline for shaman, that would also make sense with Brukans current artwork.
New Card Revealed for United in Stormwind by Esports INQ - Overdraft
This is just a very good card. Gives burst and had utility as either a cycling tool or even an overload clearing tool
New Card Revealed for United in Stormwind by Esports INQ - Overdraft
Lava Shock but like better in almost every single way. Can't wait to revisit my Giants Spirit of the Frog deck with this.

Finally some good Overload support.

Actually it will not be 10/10 as it will take damage.
And yes, you cannot remove taunt with it as it does not have rush. But still an interesting card.
New Hunter Minion - The Rat King
Super interesting card. This synergizes very well with Kolkar Pack Runner, Wolpertinger, Sin'dorei Scentfinder and Rats of Extraordinary Size. Seems very solid so far.
In wild it will probably also work well in Unseal the Vault hunter.
Overall a solid card, that will probably see a bunch of play.

Hearthstone is NOT a Warcraft canon.
You know, Scholomance Academy was also out of time.

Looks good in Rush Warrior. It can't be ignored and it generates tempo. Also that deck wants kinda needs a filler for the 7-slot

New Neutral Minion - Varian, King of Stormwind
Should be amazing in Libram Paladin. YOu can tutor Taelan, Devout Pupil, Samuro, Broom, etc.
New Warrior Minion - Lothar
Good Card - 7 Mana 7/7 is ok on it`s own (sure not the best but ok) but the End of Turn Effect makes it pretty darn good.

Right now i only see this payoff in Warlock - maybe Priest but im not sure.
Ok Card i guess.
