This card will see play if nothing more than the fact that its a disruption card.
And true to disruption cards, the fine line between playable and crap starts with the question of how consistent this card can be in sniping out key targets. My verdict is that its really, really good against combo decks, and completely crap against non-combo decks. Because anything that's not combo will likely have at least 4 minions in their hand and sniping out 2 is not really what I would describe as great. Even a singular big minion in hand would easily absorb most of what this card is supposed to be doing, which is to prevent your opponent from playing it in the first place.
That said however, if it does what it does more consistently than Dirty Rat then its gonna see play. Besides, if youre running highlander you're never gonna drop this card, the one reason for playing highlander in the first place.
I just think its a shame, because if this wasnt a highlander card it'll not only see way more play, it'll also be a legit build around.
Novel mechanic, very flavorful, but it's kinda just a random value bomb. You have very little control, and the best cards to hope for will be drowned out by all the Neutral crap flooding the market. It's also capped in its potential, given they're d6s.
The Quickdraw might be easier to proc than others, given the nature of DH's draw-power, but the effect is also very tame. Darkbomb is still acceptable at a base level, and yet even that card was buffed for the modern era. Could've been a little better, like Frostbite, especially since it lacks a spell school for those synergies.
Interesting to see how that works with divine shield synergy and enrage and more.
It's been confirmed that Divine Shield, Frenzy, Deathrattles, etc.; all of them are ignored, because the minion hasn't been played yet to "turn them on", as it were.
If you can line this up it can kill off a couple minions and maybe hit face a bit too. Of course, it's just a Fireball on an empty board; I would have considered making it cost 3, like a Cinderstorm for the modern age. It's not even a Fel spell for those synergies.

I tried the Warlock deck (with just a few replacements, I don't have Lady Darkvein and Cho'gall) and I can confirm it was a fun ride. Even won a couple games!
I have collection pages fixed on our dev site, but I can't deploy the updated code atm due to some larger changes that have to be pushed as well but they are currently blocked. I understand how important the collection system on the site is, we never would have built it if it had no value, and I know we can do better at pushing out updates to fix problems.
'Bout damn time they come up with something like this. That said, hopefully "Outcast gains consistency" doesn't overpower the mechanic too far. Not expecting it to; just something to think about down the line.
Also: it's blatantly Bob, Ashe's omnic butler from Overwatch.
Demon Hunter should have at least one card like this in every set. It's needed to enable Outcast to be a consistent mechanic. This card is very useful.

All Showdown in the Badlands Day 12 Hearthstone Card Reveals - October 30
"Digital card game means we don't need to flip coins or do dice rolls"
I don't remember who said it, but someone early on from the Hearthstone Team definitely said something pretty close to that. We've regressed!
Thematic is certainly cool though and I think it should be used again.
New Demon Hunter Spell - Fan the Hammer
If you can line this up it can kill off a couple minions and maybe hit face a bit too. Of course, it's just a Fireball on an empty board; I would have considered making it cost 3, like a Cinderstorm for the modern age. It's not even a Fel spell for those synergies.
Midnight Wolf
This art reminds me a lot of Silver Fang.
It's probably a coincidence considering that's some obscure YuGiOh vanilla from a hundreds years ago, but I still like it.
New Demon Hunter Minion - Gunslinger Kurtrus
So my opponent can now damage (and maybe kill) minions in my hand before I play them?
Interesting to see how that works with divine shield synergy and enrage and more.

Been playing a close variation on the Rogue deck. Incredibly fun.

Very cool concept. Can't wait to see what the animation is like. Hard to say if this card will be good enough, but I'm optimistic. DH needs the love!

This card is strong! A 6 mana 6/6 with rush is playable, but getting 2 is even better!
