The second orgermancer. Fun

Way too much set up for a single use aoe

The Kargal deck looks like a huge meme, so this is probably a terrible card. In a token/aggro deck where you want this kind of buff, this card is a non-starter. It's a "4 mana do nothing" card that comes packaged with the hopes that your opponent will spend their mana buffing your guys. Maybe it's an okay tech card to resist AOE (kind of like Never Surrender!), but 4 mana is a lot to spend for that kind of insurance.

Oh no, you drop this and summon ~2 (on average?) 5/5s that don't do anything for one turn! Also, the Watch Towers you have to play can't attack, so the funniest (for your opponent) situation would be keeping 4 of your Watch Towers alive so Kargal can't even summon his full value of 4 Lookouts. And the dude is a 7 Mana 5/5 himself! Nah, pass. 

Okay, now seeing the full picture with that one and the 2 posts revealed, but it seems like a big commitment to have all of those in your decks, plus have at least 2-3 played to get somewhat of value out of that Battlecry ; my head says too slow, but my heart wants to make it work!

This is kind of crazy with Warmaul Challenger, but this looks underwhelming in every other use case. Both the body and the effect look underwhelming for the cost. Rokara herself is rarely going to trade into anything and survive, and the effect doesn't make up for the body. The single +1/+1 buffs don't stack up fast enough and don't help with trades as the minions are buffed AFTER the attack and have to survive. Comparatively, Guff Runetotem's effect stacks up much faster in a given turn and is easier to achieve.

Meh. It works, but so easy to remove. You'll get one, maybe two good procs before it's dealt with.

Arena says yes, constructed is unsure. 
I still like the flavor. 

The dream deck for Kargal Battlescar is something like Kargal Taunt Druid, where you use various buffs (e.g. Ironbark, Mark of the Spikeshell, Germination, and maybe even Mark of the Wild) to summon a bunch of Watch Posts and charge up your Kargal battlecry.

Granting them taunt effectively gets around the "Can't attack" issue, and once the Watch Posts have taunt, your opponent will have to interact with them, which will help get value out of the effects. But the big payoff for investing so much into those Watch Posts is a slightly worse Chef Nomi, so that's probably way too much work for the payoff.

Hah, I think this is the first 1-star card to be revealed. +1/+1 doesn't matter against a Lightning Storm, and for those decks like Rogue which Ogremancer is great against, having the board to make this useful is either useless or means that you're already winning.

Fun card. Feels good with the outpost package.

Here are all the Neutral/Demon Hunter 5-cost and lower Deathrattle minions we know will be in Standard after rotation:

Al'ar, Taelan Fordring, Disguised Wanderer, Fishy Flyer, Renowned Performer, Educated Elekk, Razorfen Beastmaster, Teron Gorefiend, Bloodmage Thalnos, Explosive Sheep, Loot Hoarder, Nerubian Egg, Rustsworn Initiate, Showstopper, Sneaky Delinquent

Of course, there may and almost certainly will be more of these in FitB if Blizz wants to push this archetype.

One interesting note is that among these are an Elemental, a Murloc, a Beast and a Mech (and one which summons a Demon). So Death Speaker Blackthorn could potentially set you up for a high-value N'Zoth, God of the Deep on a subsequent turn.

Other important synergy includes: Baron Rivendare, Vectus, Vengeful Spirit

Vengeful Spirit might be anti synergy with this card because this card only gets minions off the deck, and vengeful spirit draws them

The theorycraft season is officially on with this one ; Could build a deck around it, and watch your opponent pressed to remove. Seems like an interesting design to say the least, and the fact that is neutral means that everyone can have their variations.

Oof! More Priest board clear, though at least this is more situational. 

Buffing up the Health of your damaged minions (self-damaged, most likely, to trigger Frenzy effects at advantageous times) while still keeping them damaged is nice, but this doesn't seem strong enough for a Legendary.

This doesn't seem terrible. I could see it spiraling out of control if not removed.

... ! That can be very terrifying to play against ; a huge healing would result in your enemie's board washed : ouch ..!
*5 Stars for sure

*On average, my predictions are dead wrong :P

It does have huge amounts of health, but will likely be prized only as another watch post. Ogremancer is the better counter against spell heavy decks, and the fact is that most decks you see in standard will likely be aggro, and aggro decks rarely play any spells.

If it had taunt, then we're talking. But sadly it doesn't.

Its not entirely impossible that this becomes one of the most hated card in this expansion. Play this on 3 and your opponent is forced to throw everything they have into it or play no minions to deny you value. With 5 health, its likely to survive a good deal of spell removals, and with 3 attack its likely to kill anything trading into it around turns 3-5.

One of the best watch post cards, if not the best. I mean there's only 2 of them at time of writing :)

That's pretty aggressively costed, useful effect, and can act as a great support for Enraged Damaged/Frenzy'd minions
That is going to be fun!

I don't see why people are saying Watch posts are bad. They supplement a gameplan that revolves around constraining your opponent's options, because every time they do something, you get a benefit. To me, they're like less impactful secrets that your opponent can see. Ogremancer became the unsung hero of the meta in DMF, so I believe that people are underestimating cards that give you things when your opponent does things. 

The Mor'shan Watch Post on its own seems very powerful. A lot of efficient spell removal will rotate, and it's just crushing against an aggro deck for coming out so early. Your opponent is either forced to commit damage to remove the Watch Post (thus killing off their board, or at least weakening it and making it susceptible to removal) or let it sit and allow you to stabilise through the tokens it generates.

Besides, we haven't yet seen all the cards. It's certain there are many more watch posts, and potentially more watch post synergy cards that are yet to be revealed. We may see a "Give all your watch posts Taunt" or "Your watch posts can attack this turn" card. 

What I'm trying to get at is watch posts are not amazing, but I think it's incorrect to call them outright "bad". I believe, just like with all of the new mechanics that Blizzard introduces, it should be given a chance before making a preemptive decision. 

The legendary is pretty bad though. Why not just play a corrupted Carnival Clown?

Its going to be honestly one of priest best card for some time. With a simply card like flash heal this card does 5 damage to all ENEMY minions. So if you have board, all it takes is 2 cards and 5 mana to immediately swing.

It does help that most of the removals from priest are gone, so this one stands unopposed, in standard anyway.

Wonder what Alliance Barracks version will be.
