Does this mean I can safely disenchant my Bru'kan copy if I get the diamond one? But in order to do that, I need to get all legendary cards. I guess that's very hard for F2P. There's gonna be like 25 legendary cards. (40K dusts)
Bigger SI:7 Agent? That one used to be great, but eventually got outclassed so we'll have to wait and see if this one will work or not. Keep in mind there could be more bounce effects in Barrens to make this better.
Very strong arena card, BUT it might see experimentation in standard. After all, this is Vulpera Scoundrels replacement. It might see some kind of play in value/spell Hunter at the very least. Venomous Scorpid will be quite underrated at first, but i'm certain it will see a bunch of play!
I'm pretty dang excited about this expansion! The cosmetics in the paid track look great - especially the priest skin and the new DH. I also really like the Horde coin.
Really cool design. Pretty good in warlock, where you already draw a lot of cards, and maybe it can help with warlocks new theme of burning and milling their own cards. I'm really interested at what the big pay-off card will be for this strategy, and if it's good enough to even play an uncorrupted Tickatus to mill your own deck. (Who knows, maybe we will see a Mecha'thun style of card printed as a warlock win-con that's not Tickatus?)
Personnaly I'd prefer no voting system at all. I almost never use it. It makes sens for decks or for cards but for posts frankly that's bullshit. The only place where it may be justified is in the Fan Creations section, though then you can have only one counter for the whole thread.
*boomer mode on* Back in MY days from pre-social-media internet young people weren't so thirsty for attention and weren't constantly judging each other!
Aggred. Petition to remove voting in the comment section and just use it to vote cards design. Use votes where it serves a greater purpose. Building a community is not about likes or dislikes, it's about the discussions itself.
Totally good idea man. It feels like no one gonna start commenting at things when they know it will get downvoted if others don't agree with it.
Hmm this rewards track seems really good. As long as the math checks out i MIGHT purchase the rewards track for once, which is nice considering i don't need to pre-order because i got plenty of gold from the rewards track. (Got like 7k gold ready for next expansion, which is awesome because my previous gold record was 2.5k lol. Yeh i kept buying packs whenever i had 100 gold pre-rewards track.)
The skins look quite good and it's nice that we get alternate hero skins! (Well except for that rexxar one.)
The card seems to have a lot of potential, but the question is: imagine you attack with a 5 mana beast and you don't have a 4 mana beast in your deck, will Tavish Stormpike search for a 3 mana beast or will he fizzle out?
I think I'm following you here... So one uses burny guy to burn up one's deck, envoy rustwix a bunch of primes in there, tappity tap tap tap, and heal-a-roo remove-a-do with this guy later... Hmmmm... Seems fun but unlikely to work?
My first impressions were that these feel ridiculously over the top AND like a pale shadow of what Runeterra’s animations give us.
I know, I know, my two opinions contradict each other. I THINK the thing that makes these weird for me is that there are only two in the game. If the next expansion has 10-20 Diamond cards that are obtainable in a variety of ways (some of them F2P-friendly), then I’ll probably enjoy them.
EDIT: Here’s how I’d do it if I were elected President of Hearthstone:
1) Make about 15 Diamond cards with an expansion.
2) Hand out “Diamond Forges” which are special items that let you craft Diamond cards for a specific set. Players can choose which card they want.
3) Give out Diamond Forges in a variety of ways. Obviously, the pass and pre-orders will give them out, as will a special offer mid-set. You also get one with every 100th pack you open. Then you can earn some more with various achievements, mostly F2P: Complete a solo adventure on Hard mode. Get 50 total wins in Arena/Paid Duels. Get 15 wins in any mode with each class. Maybe one or two more.
So, in order to profit with this card, the deck must be made in mostly deathrattles, spellburst, or frenzy beast minion (other than Battlecry) in order to avoid losing battlecries. Good lord. I don't know if Hunter got enough beast for that.

New Demon Hunter Minion - Razorfen Beastmaster
So, I guess we're gonna get some DH Deathrattles then?
Seems weird for a class that's rather active, but hey, turned out nicely for Hunter, so who knows?

Any info on the price? (sorry if it´s mentioned somewhere, didn´t see it) I hope it stays the same, I´d buy it day 1.
New Neutral Minion - Venomous Scorpid
Discovering a spell is nice, but like most poisonous minions, I don't see this getting a lot of play in standard.

It needs a deck built around but I think it has a lot of potential

People have suggested this idea for a while now actually. Glad to finally see it in the game.

Won't see play. Discovering a spell is good and all but there are better discover card.

It's not "it didn't see play", It's kinda like a filler for 3 mana pool minion. But yeah. Downvotes for a mere comment is just bad.
you don't like it, just skip it.

Good lord. I don't know if Hunter got enough beast for that.
Maybe will work out with more cards later on.
New Demon Hunter Minion - Kurtrus Ashfallen
Seems underwhelming.
Can't DH usually do more for less? And more consistent?
